Karen and I have attended hundreds of sporting events since 2017 at our two grand daughter's schools and at their community team league play.
Chinook Elementary, Alki Middle School, and Skyview High School are all a block away from our grand daughter's home in Salmon Creek, Vancouver, Washington. Both of our grand daughters played on soccer, volleyball, basketball, and track teams, both at their schools at on community league teams.
Katelyn Flinn graduated from Skyview HS in June of 2024, with both a high school diploma and a Clark Community College A.A. degree. She played volleyball her senior year. Katelyn now attends Washington State University in Pullman, Eastern Washington; and is majoring in business/marketing.
Makenna Flinn is now a junior at Skyview HS. She lettered as a sophomore in both varsity soccer and varsity track. She has also been a successful long distance runner. She is also an honors A student, and wants a career in medicine. Most important, she is a kind and decent and thoughtful person.
This year, Karen and I have attended 6 soccer games of the Skyview High School Women’s Varsity Soccer Team, in the Salmon Creek area of Vancouver, Washington. Our grand daughter, Makenna, plays the entire game as the center defender position directly in front of the goal keeper.
The Skyview Storm women's varsity soccer defense has played 4 shutouts this year, and the Storm team is undefeated (8-0-2, 2-0).
Here is a very good article about our last game against Camas HS. From the Columbian Newspaper, Vancouver, Washington, October 9, 2024:
“The title of top big-school girls soccer program in Clark
County has long resided in Camas, where the Papermakers have won four straight
4A Greater St. Helens League titles and put two 4A state championships in their
trophy case since 2016.
But the Papermakers are beginning to see a fast-rising
program narrow that margin.
Skyview continued its emergence with a 1-0 win at home
Wednesday over Camas, a result that came to pass after Dea Covarrubias scored a
go-ahead goal assisted by Reese Harrison in the 71st minute.
The undefeated Storm (8-0-2, 2-0) moved into sole possession
of first place in the 4A GSHL with four games left to play in the regular
season.
Skyview High School:
Goals (assists) — Dea Covarrubias (Reese Harrison). Match standouts — Makenna Flinn, Quinn Lundy,
Scottie Crooks.”
