Hunter Smith, seen here hauling in a pass against Chimacum, could break several school records Friday night.
One night to bust the record books.
Coupeville High School faces its toughest football opponent of the season Friday when it hosts Cascade Christian (7 PM kickoff.)
The Cougars are 9-0 and ranked #5 in 1A by the Associated Press.
They also have the stoutest defense in the Olympic/Nisqually League, allowing just 12.6 points per game.
But expect Coupeville (3-6) to come out firing, regardless.
The Wolves, who are averaging a hair over 23 points a game this season, have a chance to bust several school records on Senior Night.
Though, if the records go down, they will be shattered by underclassmen.
CHS quarterback Hunter Downes sits two away from tying the school single-season record for touchdown passes in a season, trailing Joel Walstad 18-16.
If he connects with fellow junior Hunter Smith, it will allow his receiver to break a tie with Josh Bayne for the single-season mark for TD receptions.
Smith hauled in #10 last Friday against Chimacum to tie the mark.
Even if he doesn’t break the plane of the end zone, Coupeville’s most dangerous receiver could dismantle two other records, which have stood much longer.
Chad Gale racked up 844 receiving yards in 1987, and 29 seasons later, Smith sits at 791 yards on the season heading into the finale.
Reach 136 receiving yards tonight and Smith knocks Gale off the record book twice, as he would also take the career mark away.
Gale leads that race 1,345 to 1,210.
Oh, and there’s another career mark within Smith’s reach as well, though this one is on defense.
With three interceptions this season, he’s up to 11 overall, one shy of Bayne’s 12.
