Randy King with the upset!

The longtime Coupeville High School/Middle School coach picked up a new sport at the last second this year, taking over the CMS 8th grade volleyball squad a match into the season when coach Sadi Foltz abruptly left to take a new job.

Jump forward to Monday night, and, after a long road trip to the town former CHS football coach Ron Bagby (well … and “Twilight“) built, King and his spikers emerged with a stunning upset.

The Wolves knocked off undefeated Forks 29-27, 25-20 for the win of the season.

The score is all the info we have at the moment (and nothing on the 7th grade squad), so let’s toss out a bunch of photos to fill the rest of your time.

Stick a fork in Forks! They’re done!!

Maybe the Everett Herald was right when they once spelled Joel Walstad’s last name Walstud.

The Coupeville High School senior threw down a scoreless first half as a goalie Saturday, then moved up front and scored a goal of his own as the Wolf boys’ soccer squad thrashed visiting Forks 4-0.

The non-conference win improved CHS to 1-4 on the season.

A day after signing a college football scholarship, Walstad returned to the pitch and controlled the game on both ends.

The few times Forks made a significant run at the net, he shut them down.

Then, after being relieved by Connor McCormick in goal, he punched in a loose ball after a scramble in front of the net.

The original shot, mishandled by the Spartan goalie, came off of the foot of Abraham Leyva, who was trying for a hat trick.

The Wolf junior opened the game with a run down the right side for a goal, then tacked on a second score early in the second half when he curled a shot from the left side.

That gives him a team-high four goals on the season.

Coupeville’s other score came from Garrett Compton, who, much like Walstad, caught a rebound on his toe and banked the ball back in past a frustrated, vocal Forks goaltender.

The Wolves controlled play from start to finish, with a defense led by Aaron Wright and Oscar Liquidano being largely impenetrable.

Along with the four scores, Coupeville had numerous other shots on goals, as Leyva, Compton and Ryan Freeman attacked at will.

The only bad moment for CHS came early, when high-scoring weapon Zane Bundy tumbled over the prone goalie while trying to convert on a breakaway.

He exited the game and limped on and off the field with two teammates helping him at all times.
