Tavian Woolett is a big-play guy on both sides of the ball.
The record may not fully reflect it, but it’s been a season of great growth.
While the Coupeville High School JV football team is 0-5 after taking a 40-0 loss at Klahowya Monday night, the young Wolves have taken big strides.
“The kids each game are improving and they are getting better,” said Wolf coach Ryan King.
Facing off with a tough squad from a much-bigger school — Klahowya is a student or two from being 2A while Coupeville is the smallest 1A school in the state — the Wolves weren’t able to hit pay-dirt.
But they did make their presence felt.
“The kids played hard and we were able to run the ball really well on them,” King said.
While getting contributions from up and down his roster, the Wolf coach singled out two players for extra praise.
Freshman running back Teo Keilwitz was lauded for his work carrying the ball, while fellow ninth grader Tavian Woolett popped some Eagles on defense.
It was a nice comeback for Woolett, who had been out with an injury.
