John Fisken was a busy, busy guy.

The travelin’ photo man snapped a ton of photos Saturday as Coupeville High School played a summer scrimmage against visiting Lakeside, and, while we ran a bunch that day, we didn’t use them all up.

So, as we head into a Monday morning, here’s a few more football-drenched images.

23 days until the official start of practice. Not that anyone’s counting…

Football rolls on.

The school seasons are done, but Coupeville Middle School eighth graders Gabe and Ty Eck aren’t putting away their pads and mouth guards just yet.

The duo were selected to play with the Northwest Cougars 8th grade select team, which will participate in the Tanoa Bowl in Auburn Dec. 26-28.

That event will bring together the Cougars, who have former NFL player Marcus Trufant on staff, with three other squads — FBU Seattle, Vancouver B.C. Elite and a Hawaiian All-Star team.

After the Tanoa Bowl, the Ecks will bounce to Orlando to participate in the Offense-Defense Youth All-American Bowl, which is part of a series of games held in the Citrus Bowl in the first week of Jan.

It’s the fourth time the brothers have played in the Bowl, with previous trips to Dallas, Houston and Orlando.

Ty Eck wants two and he will not be denied.

   “First I fake the pass over the top and then I bring the ball down and … hey, did you tape your ankles? Cause I’m about to break them!!”

um

  “I learned this move from the five minutes of “Kill Bill” I saw on TNT that one time. It does NOT end well for you, son!!”

Um

   “Um … coach Bob, he just went all “Karate Kid” on that dude. Can I do that, too? Coach Bob … COACH BOB?!?!?”

John Fisken outdid himself.

The wandering sage of the photography game slid through town Wednesday and fired off a few thousand clicks of the camera as the Coupeville Middle School boys’ basketball teams clashed with visiting King’s.

The seven pics above, action-packed all, are just a hint of what he captured.

After you bask in their glow (and either chuckle or grimace as you read my contributions — the “carefully” crafted cutlines), hop over to the links below and see the rest.

And remember, all purchases help fund scholarships for CHS student/athletes.

Making their home debut Wednesday, Coupeville Middle School boys’ basketball players became the first Wolves to hoop it up.

Along for the ride, madly clicking away, was photographer John Fisken.

Wolves spark Wildcats!!

The “hired guns” did their job, and they did it well.

With Coupeville not having a youth football program, local boys end up playing ball in Oak Harbor, and a pack of Wolves spread across three teams all had success on a rainy Saturday.

Logan Downes hauled in a 15-yard reception, busted out a 20-yard run and chased down a runner nearly the length of the field to save a touchdown as the Oak Harbor Pee Wees won 27-0.

The Oak Harbor Juniors, paced by Matthew Kelley and Gavin St Onge, held off Burlington-Edison 12-6.

Kelley, who also played in a soccer game the same day (his team won 4-1) had seven tackles and helped his team get an important first down when he got his defender to pick up a flag for tackling him before the catch on fourth down.

A step above, Coupeville eighth graders Gabe Eck, Ty Eck and Alex Turner helped their Oak Harbor squad defeat LaConner 22-6.

All three Wildcat teams will return to the gridiron for another playoff game Saturday, Nov. 1.
