Three men, of different eras, all linked by the uniform they wore and the touchdowns they threw.
If you look at the Coupeville High School record board, Corey Cross, Brad Sherman and Hunter Downes share a line, tied for the most touchdown passes in a single game by a Wolf quarterback.
The magic number is four, and was first accomplished by Cross in 1971.
Three decades later, Sherman matched the mark, doing it twice during the 2001 season.
Jump forward 15 more seasons, and this time, it was Downes dropping a quartet of scoring bombs during a road game in 2016.
Sherman was on the sideline, calling the plays for Downes as the CHS Offensive Coordinator, and with his help, the young gun claimed a second mark, this one for career TD passes, during his senior season in 2017.
The holder of that career mark? Sherman … who had originally taken it away from Cross.
Three legends, forever linked.
