Nick Streubel went all the way to Missouri to deliver a beat-down.

The Coupeville High School grad and his mates on the offensive line blew up everyone in sight Saturday, as Central Washington University shattered school records left and right in a 74-28 drubbing of host Southwest Baptist.

The non-conference victory lifts “The Big Hurt” and the Wildcats to 8-2 on the season.

Central closes the regular season next Saturday, Nov. 10 at home in Ellensburg.

Beat Azusa Pacific for the second time and the Wildcats (7-0 in league play) would complete a second-straight undefeated march through the Great Northwest Athletic Conference.

After that, Central should return to the NCAA DII football playoffs. Last season the ‘Cats fell 34-31 in an overtime classic to eventual national champion Texas A&M-Commerce.

Saturday, playing across the country in Bolivar, MO, Central, with Streubel and his fellow linemen clearing the way, shattered several rushing records.

The Wildcats set new marks for rushing touchdowns (nine), yards (514) and yards per rushing play (9.3 yards).

Central also broke its record for total touchdowns in a game, tacking on a touchdown pass and a pick six to turn things up to 11.

Overall, the ‘Cats piled up 667 yards of offense, which is third-best in school history.

Surprisingly, one record which didn’t fall Saturday was for total points, as Central scored 75 against Fort Lewis back in 2002.

Streubel, a three-sport star, urban legend and internet phenom back in his Coupeville days, is a red-shirt junior at CWU. He was an All-Region pick for his play on the offensive line last year.

They know his name, and they respect his game.

Coupeville High School junior Sean Toomey-Stout was named a 1st Team All-Conference pick at three different positions when North Sound Conference coaches voted for their league’s best players.

“The Torpedo,” who led the Wolves in almost every statistical category, was tabbed at running back, defensive back and for his special teams play.

Toomey-Stout rumbled for more than 1,000 yards on the ground and scored 10 touchdowns for a Coupeville team which had no other player score more than two.

He was joined by seniors Dane Lucero (defensive line) and Alex Turner (linebacker) on the 1st team, while four CHS players were named as 2nd team picks.

Seniors Ryan Labrador (offensive line), Matt Stevens (defensive line) and Shane Losey (linebacker) and junior Gavin Knoblich (tight end) rounded out the Wolf award winners.

Welcome back to contentious corner, for the final time.

Tracking football stats is a tricky business, especially when multiple people are recording said info.

So, as I present the season-ending stat totals for Coupeville High School’s gridiron squad, keep in mind, I’m just the messenger.

I can stand behind some stats (touchdowns, PATS, interceptions, etc.) with rock-solid faith.

With a few others which involve yardage or tackle totals, I understand the arguments on both sides, but this is what I have been given.

If there’s someone out there with more football knowledge than me, and a HUDL password, feel free to go review the last nine weeks of film and tell me what you see.

Until then, here’s our best guess.

The final batch.

At the start of the fall sports season, candid camera clicker John Fisken shot portraits of virtually every Coupeville High School athlete.

While a few Wolves were missing on their photo day, he managed to capture a solid 98.6% of those who turned out for soccer, cheer, cross country, tennis, volleyball and football.

And, over the course of the season, I managed to run just about every one of the portraits he sent me.

Today’s group, consisting of four cheerleaders, four spikers and one gridiron warrior, brings my mission to an end.

So with that, it’s on to winter, where, with just basketball, both of our jobs will take a lot less time and effort.

We think…
