Let the tributes pour in.

Three Coupeville High School fall sports teams have Senior Night events slated for this coming week, though one doesn’t actually have any 12th graders on its roster.

Wolf volleyball and boys’ soccer will each acknowledge three players Tuesday, before playing Friday Harbor and Orcas Island, respectively.

Meanwhile, CHS girls’ soccer, which has a roster full of young’uns, hosts Friday Harbor on Thursday, and there has been talk the booters are reaching out to local senior citizens to take the place of their non-existent senior players.

A fourth Coupeville team, cross country, which has already held its Senior Night festivities, travels to University Prep Saturday for the district meet, putting a wrap on things.

Maybe.

Boys’ soccer could also end up hosting a tie-breaker game Thursday, and the booters may open district play Saturday, depending on where they finish in the final standings.

With the regular season rushing to a close and postseason activity heating up, here are where things sit through October 25:

Time to pack up the equipment and leave the gridiron behind for another season.

A Coupeville High School football squad with a lot of young players in key positions fell 62-0 Friday on Friday Harbor to a senior-heavy Wolverines team.

The loss drops the Wolves to a final mark of 1-6 on the campaign, with a second-straight win against South Whidbey in The Battle for the Bucket the highlight of the season.

Friday Harbor, which swept the season series from its Northwest 2B/1B League rival, is 6-2 (if you count a forfeit by Toutle Lake) and heads to the playoffs.

Coupeville graduates eight seniors — Riley Lawless, Jackson Waterbury, Gabe Smith, Keegan Ramos-Kalwies, Davin Houston, Drew Majestic, Nikolas Rogers, and Chance Hart.

But Bennett Richter and his coaching staff can return four of the five players who scored a touchdown this season, while starting quarterback Kamden Ratcliff was just a freshman.

Overall, 17 of the 25 players on the Wolf roster are eligible to be back on the field in 2027.

 

Final season scoring stats:

 

Touchdowns:

Davin Houston – 4
Nathan Coxsey – 2
Richmond Bandong – 1
Liam Blas – 1
Carson Grove – 1

 

PATs:

Khyren Calhoun – 1
Kamden Ratcliff – 1

 

Points:

Houston – 24
Coxsey – 12
Bandong – 6
Blas – 6
Grove – 6
Calhoun – 1
Ratcliff – 1

Carson Grove is one of many Wolves who can return next season. (Jacob Lujan photo)

“Are you not entertained??” (Julie Wheat photos)

We’re going back in time, to a moment when they were all so young.

OK, they’re still fairly young, but they are veterans of the cheer world now, so there’s that.

The pics above and below, which come to us from the camera of Wolf legend Julie Wheat, take us back a couple of weeks to when 100+ Coupeville Elementary School students participated in a junior cheer performance at halftime of a CHS football game.

The night was a tribute to the memory of Dolly Parton, with the young spirit team stars receiving a thunderous ovation.

They’re getting ready to make their final stand.

The Coupeville High School football team travels to Friday Harbor this Friday for the regular season finale, with their postseason dreams up for grabs.

KO the host Wolverines and Bennett Richter’s squad earns a season split with their Northwest 2B/1B League rivals and forces a mini game tiebreaker for entry to the playoffs.

Don’t, and Friday Harbor is off to the next round.

As the Wolves grind through practices in preparation, here’s a collection of gridiron pics from photographers Jackie Saia, Jacob Lujan, and Julie Wheat.
