Lyla (back, far right) celebrates with her team.

The future of Wolf soccer is tearing up the pitch this summer.

Lyla Stuurmans, who’s headed into the fifth grade at Coupeville Elementary School (unless her pro contract comes through first), is spending her days playing with Northwest United FC out of Burlington.

That squad, and its Wolf sharpshooter, are 9-0 and have won both tournaments they’ve played in this summer.

NW United swept through the Crossfire Challenge this past weekend, winning five straight games over a four-day period.

Stuurmans and company pulled off three consecutive shut-outs to open the tourney and eventually outscored their rivals 12-2.

Lyla hails from a family with a long line of athletic success in Cow Town.

Dad Scott is a former CHS hoops star and mom Sarah is inducted in the Coupeville Sports Hall o’ Fame for her work as a coach.

If we listed off all the sports accomplishments of her aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents, we’d be here all day.

Fair warning to her family, better hang on to your trophies, cause Lyla is coming for all of them.

   Kalia Littlejohn hangs out with dad Andy between soccer games at a college showcase.

Kalia Littlejohn is taking her talents on the road.

The Coupeville High School junior, who returns to lead the Wolves girls soccer program into a new season this fall, is spending several days showcasing her skill-set for college coaches.

Littlejohn is at the 2017 Crossfire Challenge in Redmond, a massive event which draws coaches from more than 50 colleges.

Women’s collegiate soccer programs represented range from Washington State to Gonzaga, Northwest Kansas Tech to Transylvania University.

Littlejohn is playing with Northwest United FC, and she and her teammates have won two of three games.

After kicking Rocky Mountain FC 3-2 Friday, NWU was edged 2-0 Saturday by SD Surf Academy. That game was scoreless until the final five minutes.

NWU got a big boost from its Wolf sharpshooter Sunday, as Littlejohn punched in the game’s only score in a 1-0 win against Crossfire Premiere.

Littlejohn off on a new adventure!!

   Littlejohn, a bulldog on the basketball court, was a two-time First-Team All-League pick.

The sisterhood is breaking up.

On the field, that is, not off the field.

Mia Littlejohn, who shattered Coupeville High School’s single-season soccer scoring record last year, is transferring to Garfield for her senior year.

Younger sister Kalia, a high-scoring soccer sensation herself, is remaining a Wolf and will be a junior at CHS this fall.

The older sister torched the nets for 27 goals as a junior, besting Abraham Leyva’s previous standard of 20, and was honored as Co-MVP by Olympic League coaches.

Led by Mia’s fiery attacks on the goal, Coupeville finished 8-7-1 overall, 6-3 in league play. Runner-ups to Klahowya, the Wolves set a program record for wins.

Littlejohn was a two-sport standout for the Wolves, running the point for the girls basketball squad.

A three-year letter winner and two-time First-Team All-League player as a hoops star, Mia never lost a league game during her time on the high school basketball court.

Coupeville’s girls are 27-0 in their three years in the conference, with Littlejohn’s pinpoint passes and swooping drives to the bucket a big part of their success.

While she won’t be playing for the Wolves anymore, Mia plans to stay in tune with how her lil’ sis and former teammates are doing.

“I’ll come visit for games, for sure,” Littlejohn said.

   Maddy Hilkey and her CHS volleyball teammates kick off the season Sept. 5 against Mount Vernon Christian. (John Fisken photo)

81 days.

It’s both forever and just around the corner, and it’s the gap between today and the first game of the 2017-2018 school year.

Wolf football is first up, with a road game Sept. 1 at South Whidbey, with The Bucket on the line.

After that, boys tennis and volleyball hit the ground running Sept. 5, with girls soccer the last to debut Sept. 7.

With CHS Athletic Director Willie Smith on top of things, the schedules below are already (virtually) locked-in.

Now, of course, things can and will change over the next three months (hopefully not dates so much, but times can certainly shift).

So, treasure this list, pore over it, memorize it, laminate it and light candles around it, but also don’t forget to keep an eye on the following web sites as we get closer to fall:
