The end is near, but Mitch Pelroy isn’t slowing down.

The Coupeville High School grad ripped off 55 yards on three kickoff returns Saturday, helping spark Montana Western to a 43-24 thumping of Southern Oregon on the college gridiron.

Pelroy, who has two regular season games remaining in his senior season, has rung up 256 yards on 10 returns this season, pushing his career total to 992 yards bringing back kicks.

Toss in the 59 yards he ground out on punt returns early in his career, and he has 1,051 return yards at the college level.

Pelroy is a two-way warrior for the Bulldogs, having amassed 53 tackles, 14 assists, six broken-up passes, four tackles for a loss and two sacks in his time playing college ball.

Montana Western (5-4 overall, 4-4 in Frontier Conference play) hosts Carroll College Nov. 5 and will honor Pelroy and his fellow vets on Senior Night.

The regular season ends on the road Nov. 12 against Rocky Mountain College.

During his time in Coupeville, Pelroy starred on the gridiron and basketball court, while making it to state in five different events as a track and field athlete.

He competed in the 100, 200, 400, 300 hurdles and 4 x 400 relay at the big dance and held the CHS 200 record until Jacob Smith broke it last spring.

Wolf QB Hunter Downes scrambles for a first down under the watchful eyes of his coaches.

CHS spikers (l to r) Emma Smith (rockin’ the old school letter jacket), Payton Aparicio and Ally Roberts kill some time while waiting for their playoffs to begin.

The Beast, AKA Julian Welling, rises up out of the muck to fire a snap to his QB.

Cameron Toomey-Stout can smell the concession stand behind him, but he only has eyes for the football.

The fastest water boy in the biz, Dylan Estes stays one step ahead of a thirsty pack of Wolves.

Bending the laws of physics, Clay Reilly hovers in mid-air.

Well, at least one of us wasn’t sick.

While I stayed back in Coupeville Friday with a touch of the good ol’ stomach flu, wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken was feeling hale and hearty and hopped on the ferry to cover Coupeville’s football game against Chimacum.

Wolves chomp Cowboys!!

Hunter Smith, seen here in an earlier game, hauled in his 10th TD reception of the year, tying the CHS single-season mark.

A true team win.

That’s what the Coupeville High School football squad put together Friday night, riding touchdowns from three different players as it romped to a 24-6 win at Chimacum.

The victory snaps a three-game skid for the Wolves and lifts them to 2-4 in Olympic/Nisqually League play, 3-6 overall.

With one game left on the schedule — next Friday at home against undefeated Cascade Christian — the Wolves have taken a huge step forward from last year’s 1-9 mark.

First-year coach Jon Atkins mixed things up a bit Friday, going for two-point conversions after all three scores.

When Hunter Smith scampered in on attempts after the first and third touchdowns, it was the first successful conversions of the season for CHS.

The Wolves broke the game open early and never let go of the lead.

Hunter Downes dropped the ball into Cameron Toomey-Stout’s hands on an 18-yard scoring strike late in the first quarter to kick things off.

The first of three TD passes on the night for the junior quarterback, it set the tone.

Smith bolted in for two to open an 8-0 lead and Coupeville stretched the margin to double digits with a safety on the first play of the second quarter.

Downes went right back to work, finding the other Toomey-Stout brother, freshman Sean, with a 20-yard pass to run the score to 16-0.

It was the first varsity TD for the young receiver, and a reward, as Sean Toomey-Stout had provided the Wolves with the earlier safety.

He blew up an option play and rode down the pitch man in the end zone.

Coupeville held Chimacum scoreless through the first half, with Cameron Toomey-Stout pilfering a pass — his third pick of the season — and the Wolf line partially blocking a Cowboy punt.

The hosts finally cracked the code midway through the third quarter, when they put together a seven-yard scoring pass.

The conversion failed, however, and the Wolves put the game on ice with a pair of plays from Smith.

After having opposing teams fail to throw his way most of the season, the junior finally got a rare crack at an interception, and immediately made off with it.

His third pick of the season, it gives Smith 11 all-time (he had one as a freshman and seven as a sophomore), leaving him just one shy of Josh Bayne’s CHS career record.

Shortly thereafter Smith continued his quest to attack all of Bayne’s records, hauling in his 10th touchdown reception of the season.

The snag ties Bayne’s single-season mark, and was Downes 16th TD pass this season.

He’s spread his scoring strikes out between Smith (10), Cameron Toomey-Stout (4), Jacob Martin (1) and Sean Toomey-Stout (1).

Downes sits two shy of Joel Walstad’s single-season record of 18 touchdown passes, set in 2014, when his primary target was … yep, Bayne.

Our stat game is strong!!

This could be a record-breaking season.

With two games left on the schedule, a pair of Coupeville High School football players are making bids to put their names on the program’s all-time record board.

Junior QB Hunter Downes and junior receiver Hunter Smith already tied CHS single-game records for touchdowns thrown and caught in a single game.

That came when Downes riddled Bellevue Christian for four scoring strikes, three of which went to Smith.

Now, Smith sits one snag away from tying Josh Bayne’s season record of 10 touchdown receptions, while also finding himself just 143 yards shy of Chad Gale’s mark (844 yards in 1987) for receiving yards in a single campaign.

When it comes to career marks, Smith sits 225 yards and six touchdowns off of Gale’s records (1,345 yards and 17 TD’s).

Downes is a little further away from his goals, but with a strong finish could make runs at Ian Smith’s single-season mark of 1,848 passing yards and Joel Walstad’s 18 touchdown passes in a year.

The Wolf gunslinger sits at 1,201 yards and 13 touchdowns and Friday’s foe, Chimacum, has the second-worst scoring defense in the Olympic/Nisqually League.

Cascade Christian, Coupeville’s final rival Nov. 4, is #1 in every defensive stat, however.

While the Hunter to Hunter passing attack is making a run at history, they are not the only Wolves putting up strong stats this season.

Here’s a look at where the whole CHS roster stands through week #8 on offense and defense, according to numbers posted on MaxPreps by Wolf coaches.
