You have five days to get your car over to Whidbey Island Bank.

The Coupeville High School football team will be holding a car wash fundraiser at the N. Main financial hot spot Saturday, May 10.

Action gets down and soapy starting at 11 AM.

Looking for maximum participation, CHS football coach Tony Maggio is offering five weight room credits to any Wolf player who shows up to help out.

So get yer lazy butt out of bed that day!

Everything changes next season for Wolf football.

Coupeville High School, the smallest 1A school in the state, is moving out of the 1A/2A Cascade Conference, where it routinely faced teams three times its size.

Starting in the fall, CHS will join Chimacum, Klahowya and Port Townsend in a 1A division of the Olympic League that will stand on its own.

Along with the chance to face off with schools far more comparable in size, the Wolves will be lookin’ sharp in newly designed helmets, as well.

Coupeville coach Tony Maggio is the man behind the move.

I had them all reconditioned and painted flat black,” he said. “Ordered all new decals, large, over-sized new designed wolf, American flag on back, with players number on back … SICK!!

“The kids that have seen them really like them.”

Even if he moves to Las Vegas with his family, the legend will live on in Coupeville.

Aaaaaa-goooooo-nyyyyyyyy.

It’s not 100% certain yet, but there’s a very real possibility the Wolves will lose one of their football captains before he can suit up for his senior season.

Junior lineman Oscar Liquidano, who also plays basketball and soccer for Coupeville High School, may be pilfered away from the red and black if a family move to Las Vegas happens shortly.

“Well, it’s not a sure thing … but only God knows what will happen,” Liquidano said.

The easy-going man mountain was supposed to join Josh Bayne, Carson Risner and Aaron Wright to lead the Wolves into a new league next season. Coupeville is hopping out of the 1A/2A Cascade Conference and joining the 1A Olympic League.

CHS football coach Tony Maggio was last seen huddled in a corner, tears running down his face. Or, at least that’s how I imagine it…

“Devastating. I love that kid,” Maggio said.

If the move happens, it will actually take two football players away from Coupeville, as younger brother Uriel was a standout defensive player for the JV this year as a freshman.

There is money to be made here.

Coupeville High School senior athletes are eligible for a new scholarship that is being offered by Whidbey Island photographer John Fisken starting this year.

Fisken, whose work can be found at http://www.cascadeathletics.com/index.php?district=1&league=2, will fund the scholarship(s) off of money raised from purchases of his photos.

The more sales, the higher the scholarship amount. The higher the amount, the chance it might be split into two scholarships.

To be eligible, a Wolf athlete needs to meet the following criteria:

*Be a full-time CHS student-athlete

*Have participated in at least two sports per year for all four years of high school

*NOT be getting any financial assistance from any college or university for sports

*Minimum 3.0 GPA

*Write a 500 word essay “How Sports Made Me A Better Person”

Interested Wolf athletes can get applications and more info at the CHS counseling office.
