The smiles overcame the wind.

Despite a blustery night Monday, eight Coupeville High School booters put on a brave face for the cameras as they bid adieu.

It was Senior Night, and while the Wolves fell 4-0 to state title contender Klahowya, the Elite Eight, who have played together most of their lives, went out on a high note.

They still have two regular season games to play (including a makeup game at home) and then, hopefully, a long playoff run ahead of them.

But, for one night, they faced the end of their high school soccer careers and they did it the way they do everything — with a smile.

Ice cream made Micky LeVine the player she is today.

They grew up together on the pitch.

The eight Wolf booters who will be honored at tonight’s Senior Night festivities (5 PM) have been playing soccer as a team for much of their lives.

The names have stayed the same — Julia Myers, Micky LeVine, Ivy Luvera, Christine Fields, Erin Rosenkranz, Jacki Ginnings, Ana Luvera and Marisa Etzell — while their games have gotten even sharper.

Take a moment to gaze at the top pic above, which captures the elite eight during their younger days, then head out to Micky Clark Field tonight and see them one final time as they are now.

P.S. — If you miss tonight, there’s actually one more shot, as an earlier-season game against Port Townsend was cancelled by a lack of ferry service.

That game, bumped to this Thursday, is also a home game. Just not Senior Night.

Kacie Kiel, irrepressible then, irrepressible now.

Livin’ on Washington state ferries, the life of a Whidbey athlete.

Maddie Big Time raises the question — which parent will lose it first on Senior Night? Place your bets now.

It’s their final bow. Sort of.

Five Coupeville High School volleyball players will step on to the court tonight for Senior Night, capping a run that started as a group in eighth grade (seventh grade for four of the five).

Three days later, those same girls will actually play another home match, however.

A match originally scheduled earlier in the season was postponed when Port Townsend couldn’t come to Whidbey because a wind storm shut down the ferry.

Now re-set for Thursday, that will in fact be the final home match, while tonight’s match — the original “final home match,” still gets the distinction of including Senior Night festivities.

Monica Vidoni, McKayla Bailey, Kacie Kiel, Hailey Hammer and Madeline Strasburg (she joined the Wolves in 8th grade) will be honored before the match against Klahowya.

Things kick off at 4:45, with the JV playing AFTER the varsity tonight.

To get you prepared, we poached a few pics from Wolf JV coach Amy King, who coached the girls when they were middle school players.

Breezy, Mad Dog and The Sherminator took their final bows Monday.

Coupeville High School seniors Breeanna Messner, Madeline Roberts and Haley Sherman, three classy stars, were honored before their team’s battle against Sultan in the final home game of the season.

While there is still a ton of ball to play — three more regular season games on the road, followed by the playoffs — the trio will not rep the red and black on their home field again.

Fittingly, the bleachers and surrounding viewing area were jammed. The clouds parted and what had looked like a rainy day turned into an afternoon worthy of mid-August.

Then the game was a nail-biter, with all three seniors coming through with big plays.

It was the only way it could have ended. It was the only way it should have ended.

Messner, Sherman and Roberts all have long family traditions in Wolf athletics and all three kept that tradition strong in their years on the field.

The applause was earned and deserved.

Players come and players go, but before they depart, they get a moment in the spotlight.

Coupeville High School honored its senior boys’ soccer players before Monday night’s thrilling 2-1 loss to visiting King’s.

Captains and leaders on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball, they formed a core that led the Wolves to multiple wins in 2014, including a stunning home upset of uppity South Whidbey.

They’re not done yet, as they head into playoff action starting Wednesday. But Monday was the final time they took their home field in uniform.

They honored their school and their colors along the way. They will be missed.
