Action will be furious tonight, as Coupeville wraps its 2014 season.

Mitchell Losey is on his way to join the fray.

So is Jose Castro.

And don’t count out Cameron Toomey-Stout!

One last time.

When the Coupeville High School football squad steps onto its home gridiron tonight to face non-conference foe Bellevue Christian (7 PM kickoff), it’ll be the end of several things.

It’s the final pigskin game of the season for the Wolves (4-5).

A win would give CHS its most wins since 2007 and its first .500 or better season since the Wolves went 6-5 in 2005.

It’s also the last high school contest of the fall sports season, since boys’ tennis, volleyball and girls’ soccer have all wrapped their seasons.

Basketball practice starts in 10 days.

And it’s the swan song for Wolf coach Tony Maggio, who is stepping away from the game after a decade of coaching, the last three seasons as head man in Coupeville.

Maggio is an offensive-minded coach and the Wolves, under the guidance of offensive coordinator Orson Christensen, have the chance to finish the season with both a 1,500 yard passer and rusher.

Senior QB Joel Walstad has 1,407 yards through the air, while senior Josh Bayne has pounded away for 1,217 yards on the ground.

With Bellevue Christian (1-8) presenting a less-than-stellar defense, Coupeville will be looking to send their stars out with big games.

Let’s get it on.
