His momma’s genes are kickin’ in.
Donavan Sellgren, son of former Coupeville sports sensation Misty Sellgren — one of the most-talented athletes I covered in the ’90s — is off to a strong start as he plays another season of college football.
The younger Sellgren, whose grandpa Vinny rocked the short shorts back in the day when he was a gridiron assistant coach at Coupeville High School, never played for the Wolves.
Donavan attended high school in Arlington, and now plays football for Rocky Mountain College in Montana.
But he’s still a part of Wolf Nation by blood, with his mom, uncle, aunt, and grandparents all being heavily involved with Coupeville athletics.
Rocky Mountain is off to a sizzlin’ 5-1 start to the season, and Donavan, a redshirt junior receiver, currently ranks fourth on the team with 12 receptions for 118 yards.
He’s pulled in 38 passes for 641 yards and four touchdowns during his time at the NAIA school, even with the pandemic altering things in the early going.
When he’s not on the field, Donavan studies business administration.
