Logan Downes made some history.

The Coupeville Middle School 8th grader became the first boys soccer player in school history to score a goal, finding the back of the net Wednesday afternoon at Lakewood.

He actually picked up a second score as well, though it would be credited as an “own goal,” as Downes banged a corner kick right at a Lakewood player who accidentally headed the incoming ball past his own goalkeeper.

While the Wolves fell 8-2 in the first road game in program history, dropping their record to 0-2 in their inaugural season, there were plenty of positives.

“I feel we played a better game this time than our first game,” said Coupeville coach Reese Cernick. “Positioning was better.

“We’re starting to come together as a team, but have a little ways to go.”

The Wolves travel to Granite Falls Sept. 30 and Northshore Christian Academy Oct. 2, before returning home Oct. 7 to kick off a three-game home-stand with a rematch against Lakewood.

The soccer program, which was added this year after CMS football was eliminated, has a 10-game season.

The trailblazers have arrived.

Coupeville Middle School’s brand-new boys soccer program has 15 players on its roster two days into practice.

The Wolf booters, led by coach Reese Cernick, open their inaugural 10-game schedule with a home match against Northshore Christian Academy Sept. 23.

CMS will see a lot of the same opponents in year one, with four games against Northshore, and three each with Lakewood and Granite Falls.

The boys soccer program replaces football at the school, after the gridiron program was shut down last season due to a rapidly-declining number of athletes.

Your up-to-the-moment Wolf roster:

7th grade:

Mason Butler
Preston Epp
Dane Hadsall
Tavan Hughes
Alexander Smith

8th grade:

Young Wolves learn under fire!!

Only have to play them once this season, so that’s nice.

Returning from a 12-day break the Coupeville Middle School boys basketball squads ran into a buzz-saw Tuesday while facing off with much-bigger Lakewood.

Three losses in as many games against a middle school which supports a large 2A high school was rough, but educational.

 

7th grade varsity:

There were two large bright spots in a 44-24 loss.

First, Logan Downes continued to scorch the net, popping for a team-high 14 points.

And secondly, and maybe more importantly, the Wolves showed grit, rebounding from a rough first half to dominate play in the third quarter.

While a 12-3 run in which four CMS players scored wasn’t enough to fully erase a 22-point deficit, it showed Coupeville won’t stop fighting.

Zane Oldenstadt added four points to back Downes, who is averaging 14.2 a night, while Ryan Blouin, Cole White and Nick Guay added a bucket apiece.

William Davidson, Mikey Robinett and Quinten Pilgrim also saw floor time for the Wolves, who sit at 2-3 at the halfway point of the season.

 

8th grade varsity:

A polished Lakewood squad rumbled to a one-sided 59-19 win, dropping Coupeville to 1-4 on the season.

Dominic Coffman rampaged for a team-high five points for the Wolves, while Mitchell Hall (4), Alex Wasik (3), Kevin Partida (3), Ty Hamilton (2) and Levi Pulliam (2) all put their names in the scoring column.

Jesse Wooten and Josh Upchurch rounded out the CMS players to hit the court.

 

7th grade JV:

A rough first quarter in which they were outscored 15-2 turned into an 18-5 loss for Coupeville in the two-quarter game.

Robinett paced the Wolves with three points, while Timothy Nitta knocked down a bucket in support.

Pilgrim, Andrew Williams, Chris Villarreal, Alex Clark and Justin Wilkinson rounded out the CMS roster on the afternoon.
