A season of pain ended on a positive note.

With all the many injuries sustained this year now in the process of healing, the Coupeville High School football squad gathered Saturday to toast its accomplishments.

Wolf QB Hunter Downes, who broke the school’s career touchdown passes record, was named the Offensive MVP.

Also taking home hardware were seniors Cameron Toomey-Stout (Defensive MVP) and Julian Welling (Lineman of the Year) and juniors Shane Losey (Wolf Award) and Matt Hilborn (Special Teams MVP).

Earlier, Toomey-Stout was a three-time honoree when Olympic/Nisqually League coaches voted on All-Conference teams.

Camtastic was tabbed a First-Team player at both wide receiver and defensive back, while nabbing Second-Team props as a kick returner.

Downes was a Second-Team pick at QB, with Welling earning Honorable Mention on the defensive line.

At Saturday’s banquet, CHS head coach Jon Atkins handed letters to 18 players, with a third of those wrapping up a full four-year run in a Wolf uniform.

Camtastic went out with a bang.

In a football season where Coupeville lost almost all of its stars to injury, senior Cameron Toomey-Stout was one of the few Wolves to stay healthy and explosive all year.

And now he’s been rewarded for the stellar numbers he put up on both sides of the ball, being tabbed to the Olympic/Nisqually League’s All-Conference team three times.

Toomey-Stout earned First-Team honors as a receiver and defensive back, while also netting Second-Team honors as a kick returner.

Two of his fellow seniors, Hunter Downes and Julian Welling, also received props when the coaches of the eight-team league got together to hash out the season.

Downes, who broke his school’s career record for touchdown passes, was a Second-Team selection at quarterback, while Welling was an Honorable Mention pick for his work on the defensive line.

Playoffs? Yes, we’re talking playoffs.

Coupeville High School grad Nick Streubel, now a starting lineman for the Central Washington University football team, is headed to the postseason, and he even gets a week to rest up.

The Wildcats capped an 11-0 regular season Saturday with a 42-28 road win over Humboldt State, claiming their first Great Northwest Athletic Conference title since 2012.

Still coasting on the buzz from its big win, Central then nabbed one of four #1 seeds for the NCAA D-II playoffs.

CWU, which reps Super Region Four, is joined by Indiana (PA), West Alabama and Fort Hays State as top seeds, and all four get a first-round bye in the 28-team tourney.

After a week off, the Wildcats host the winner of Winona State (Minn.) vs. Texas A&M-Commerce in the round of 16.

That game will be in Ellensburg Nov. 25.

Streubel, who was a standout football, basketball and track star during his days in Coupeville, is a red-shirt sophomore for Central.

   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.

   Allison Wenzel and Hope Lodell (1) are part of a deep senior class which carried the CHS spikers to back-to-back league crowns.

   Coupeville’s football season started strongly, but an astonishing run of injuries made life difficult in the second half of the season.

   Lauren Bayne’s fan club saw her help lead the Wolf soccer squad to a program record-tying eight wins.

Surprises, until the end.

Capping the final day of regular-season play for fall sports, Chimacum football shocked Klahowya 17-14 in overtime Friday night.

The first time the Cowboys have beaten the Eagles on the gridiron since the 1A Olympic League formed in 2014, it gave Chimacum’s oldest players a great parting gift on their Senior Night.

Preventing Klahowya from notching another league win also aids Coupeville, allowing the Wolves to stay right on the heels of the Eagles for varsity wins spread across four fall sports.

With conference play complete in girls soccer, volleyball, boys tennis and football, KSS holds a 21-20 edge over CHS as we exit the fall and head for the basketball court.

Port Townsend, with seven wins, and Chimacum, with five, are lagging way back in the hinterlands at the moment.

Coupeville, which captured the varsity wins crown in 2016-2017, after two years of narrowly being nipped by Klahowya, is riding high thanks to its female athletes.

An undefeated, league-title winning volleyball squad and a solid, second-place soccer unit have compensated for a football team which was ripped asunder by a historic run of injuries.

With two Olympic League teams still active in the postseason (Coupeville volleyball and Klahowya soccer are state-bound), standings through Nov. 5:
