   Jake Hoagland (8) heads down the line as Wolf QB Hunter Downes awaits the snap.

Downes (3) fights for possession of the ball near the goal line.

   The late afternoon sun glints off of a new stadium, which was completed … a couple of days after the last home game.

Hoagland goes in for the wrap-up.

   Teo Keilwitz (33) hauls in the ball, while Julian Welling keeps any pesky Cowboys out of his face.

The football season may be done, but there are a few more pics still falling to the gridiron.

As Coupeville closes down its very-active MASH unit and moves on to basketball season, David Stern delivers a few final photos for your perusal.

   A season of pain summed up in one photo, as Matt Hilborn (on crutches) talks to Hunter Smith, who was lost three weeks ago. (David Stern photos)

Dawson Houston (2) and James Vidoni prepare for action.

A rainy day gave way to gorgeous skies come game time.

Dane Lucero (55) and Co. hit the water bottles during a timeout.

Every base covered.

   Today’s cheerleaders shepherd tomorrow’s rally leaders on the field for a halftime performance.

O’er the land of the free and the home of the Wolves.

“I … can’t … stop my leg from dancing!!”

   Cameron Toomey-Stout (11), noted ball-hawk, gets ready to shut down his side of the field.

Andrew Martin (32) refuses to go down, even if it is 1-on-4 at this point.

It was a lovely night for a game.

After rain earlier in the day, Friday night boasted clear skies, little wind and mildly nippy temps on the prairie as Coupeville hosted Klahowya on the gridiron.

While the final score, and the number of Wolf players headed to the MASH unit, were on the depressing side, we can balance that out a bit with some snappy pics.

They come to us courtesy David Stern, who worked the sidelines all night.

Wolf ball boys pause for the national anthem.

Ready to rumble.

James Vidoni lingers in the light of the scoreboard.

   Friday was easily the chilliest game of the year, as evidenced by the puffs of breath issuing from under face masks.

   As Matt Hilborn sets up to kick-off, the ref asks him not to belt it too far. “Dude, I’m too tired to run right now…”

   Wolf QB Hunter Downes (3) sprints towards the skeleton of Coupeville’s new grandstands during player introductions.

It had been awhile.

After two straight road games, and four of the first six being played away from Coupeville, the Wolf football team returned to kick off a three-game home stand on a very chilly Friday the 13th.

Local photographer David Stern worked the sidelines as CHS clashed with Bellevue Christian, and the photos above are courtesy him.

   Shane Losey (10) peers in at the Charles Wright offense over the shoulder of a ready-to-launch Dane Lucero (55).

A man and his prairie. Lark Gustafson holds the line.

   Sharp-eyed Wolf captains (l to r) Downes, Julian Welling, Hunter Smith and Cameron Toomey-Stout lead some blind refs across the field.

   Losey’s helmet, adorned with Wolf stickers for various accomplishments, tells the tale of a young star on the rise.

Downes scampers for vital yardage.

Jake Hoagland (8) pulls down a pass during pre-game drills.

   Wolf linemen (l to r) Welling, Tyler McCalmont and James Vidoni take a knee while an injured rival player is down on the turf.

Boom-boom goes the players hitting each other, pop-pop goes the camera documenting it.

Coupeville High School’s gridirion squad was back in town Friday, playing Charles Wright Academy in the league opener, and photographer David Stern worked the sidelines, capturing the images seen above.

The CHS scoreboard lights up another Friday night on the prairie.

“If I ignore it, maybe they won’t notice I threw it…”

The shoes go to work.

CHS cheerleaders prep for the return of the Wolves after the halftime break.

Cameron Toomey-Stout gets elusive.

   Captains Julian Welling (51), Downes (3) and Hunter Smith (4) have led CHS to its first 2-0 start since 2009.

Football returned to Cow Town.

Friday night was the home opener for Coupeville High School, and, while the new grandstand might have been still AWOL, the Wolves themselves were very much present.

Drilling old-school rival La Conner 40-6, CHS improved to 2-0 for the first time since 2009.

Working the sidelines during the game, local photographer David Stern captured the images you see above.
