We may have a new champ.
This year’s edition of the Coupeville High School football squad boasts four sets of brothers — Gabe/Ty Eck, CJ/Hunter Smith, Jake/Josh Lord and Mitchell/Shane Losey — and that seemed like a lot for one team.
But it appears, thanks to our sleuths out there, that the 1961 Wolf gridiron squad did them one better.
That team boasted Tom and Ed Brown, Jim and Len Engle, Vin and Dale Sherman, Pat and Mike Millenbach and Roy and Gary Mattox.
A couple of those last names sound downright familiar…
Anyway, we now acknowledge the ’61ers as the gold standard … until someone else can pop up with photographic proof of six sets of brothers on a Wolf team.
I dare you.
