It wasn’t the best spring, weather-wise, that we’ve seen on the prairie.
But through the wind, and rain, and more wind and rain, the Coupeville High School softball squad put together a very successful spring.
Along for the ride was Wolf Mom (and CHS Yearbook editor) Jackie Saia, who delivers the pics seen above and below.
They’re winners, no matter the weather.

Bow Down to Cow Town, indeed.
After rampaging through league play on its way to a 9-0 mark this spring, the Coupeville High School softball squad got plenty of love from rival coaches.
Sophomore catcher Teagan Calkins, the two-way terror known as “The Red Dragon,” was tabbed as co-MVP of the Northwest 2B/1B League, while diamond guru Kevin McGranahan was named Coach of the Year.
Calkins was fond of cranking home runs, both of the over-the-fence and inside-the-park variety, while playing superb defense while working with a super-young pitching staff which featured two freshmen and an 8th grader.
Eight other Wolves were honored as well, with five making the First Team in coach voting.
Those players were juniors Madison McMillan, Taylor Brotemarkle, Mia Farris, and Jada Heaton, as well as fab frosh Haylee Armstrong.
Her fellow freshman (and cousin), Capri Anter, was joined by 8th graders Adeline Maynes and Sydney Van Dyke as Second-Team All-League selections.
Coupeville went 14-5 overall, reclaimed its conference crown, came within a play or two of advancing to state, and can return every player on the roster next spring.
