The Wolves are on the prowl, conquering one soccer pitch after another.
Four young Coupeville booters were shining brightly in Tukwila alongside their teammates with Deception FC.
Sparked by Lucy Youderian, Elaina Grose, Scotlyn Helm, and Lilly Hestbeck, the GU11 squad wrapped up play Monday at the Surf Invitational in Tukwila with a second-place finish in its class.
Coming off stellar play at the Rush Cup earlier this month, Deception FC received a special invitation from the Surf Invitational director.
“I wear #1, because I am #1, skippy!”
Two Whidbey teams made the trek off-Island, with both of them reaching the final.
Of course, the one featuring Coupeville athletes, led by coaches Will Tellez and Matthew Hutchinson, is the one which gets the biggest buzz in a blog called … Coupeville Sports.
For the other Deception FC players, it’s time to convince your parents to move to Cow Town, is all I’m sayin’…
Anyways, the trip to Tukwila was a boon for all involved, said proud Wolf Mom (and CHS girls’ soccer head coach) Kimberly Kisch.
“We were so excited to have the opportunity to compete at this skill level,” she said. “No matter the outcome, the experience was invaluable.”
Along with the games on the field, the girls also got to watch the pros at work, viewing a scrimmage between the Seattle Reign and Portland Thorns.
All your medals belong to us.
