Pro hoops star Makana Stone will be back in her high school gym.

The pro is coming home, and you can share the hardwood with her.

Coupeville High School grad Makana Stone, who has played for pay in England and Norway, will be back on the courts of her teen years in August.

The former Wolf ace, who averaged 20 and 20 a night while guiding CHS to the state basketball tourney as a senior, went on to a distinguished four-year hoops career at Whitman College.

After that came a wildly successful season at Loughborough University in the land of tea and crumpets, and then year-long stints with pro teams in Leicester and Baerum.

Most recently, Stone paced her Norwegian team to a second-place finish in the seven-team Kvinneligaen.

Playing in 26 of her team’s 27 games — the flu sent her to the sideline on one game day — Coupeville’s progeny finished with 468 points, 292 rebounds, 66 assists, 65 steals, and 11 blocked shots.

Now, Stone will spend part of her summer vacation running basketball clinics at her former high school.

The first one, which is set for August 4-6, is for players entering grades 2-6.

Cost is $60 per day or $150 for all three days, with sessions running from 10:00 AM until 3:00 PM.

After that, an elite skills clinic Aug. 11-13 is aimed at those going into grades 6-12.

The morning session (grades 6-8) is 9:00 AM-12:00 PM, with an afternoon session (grades 8-12) from 1:00-4:00 PM.

That clinic is $65 per day or $175 for the full experience.

With volleyball fever at an all-time high in Coupeville, now is a perfect time for Wolf spikers, young and old, to fine-tune their floor game or learn the basics.

Coupeville High School and Middle School coaches, led by Cory Whitmore, will host two skills camps in June, providing a mix of learning and fun.

The first camp, for incoming K-6 students, is set for June 12-13, with a camp for incoming 7-12 students going down June 21-24.

Both clinics will be held in the CHS gym.

Cost is $20 for K-6, which has two three-hour practices, and $30 for 7-12, which consists of four two-hour events.

The younger players will play from 9 AM-noon during their sessions, with the older players meeting from 5-7 PM each night.

Payment can be made by cash or check made out to “Coupeville High School volleyball,” and is paid on the first day of camp.

You need to register, however, and the deadline to insure you get a camp t-shirt is June 7 for K-6 and June 14 for 7-12.

Students should wear athletic clothes to camp, with indoor shoes, and bring a water bottle.

Masks are required on school property, participants will be socially distanced, and parents need to sign a daily medical attestation that their child is not displaying COVID-19 symptoms.

This form has to be signed AT THE DOOR before each day of the camp.
