They like to give awards to Josh Bayne.

A year after he was tabbed as the 1A Olympic League MVP during his senior season at Coupeville High School, Awesome Joshsome was back at the podium this week.

This time he was being honored as the Rookie of the Year when the Simon Fraser University football team held its awards night.

Bayne played in eight games for the Clan as a true freshman, recording 13 solo tackles and five assists from his defensive back position. He also broke up three passes, defended three others and joined in on a tackle for a loss.

Fellow CHS alumni Jake Tumblin joined Bayne in Canada this season, recording four solo tackles, six assists and a tackle for a loss during his freshman campaign.

The duo faced off twice with former Wolf teammate Nick Streubel, who plays on the line for Central Washington, giving Coupeville five current college football players.

Mitch Pelroy (Montana Western) and Joel Walstad (Midland) round out that group.

Spikers one, gridiron warriors zero.

Of the five former Coupeville High School athletes competing in college sports this week, only one came away a winner.

That was Monica Vidoni, who saw action as her Rainy River Community College volleyball squad rolled to wins Oct. 7 against Hibbing and Oct. 9 against Fond du Lac.

None of her former classmates could say the same Saturday, as three teams, featuring four former Wolves, all fell in college football games.

Central Washington University and former CHS lineman Nick Streubel lost 49-44 to the South Dakota School of Mines, snapping their three-game winning streak.

Also taking a loss was Simon Fraser University, which was edged 38-35 by Dixie State.

The Clan boast two Wolf alumni, Josh Bayne and Jake Tumblin, and Bayne snared a tackle from his defensive back position.

Rounding out the Coupeville contingent was Mitch Pelroy, who brought back a kick-off 37 yards and had a tackle in Montana Western’s 37-30 overtime loss to second-ranked Southern Oregon.

It was the second straight loss for the Bulldogs, who had previously put together a seven-game winning streak covering parts of two seasons.

While her male counterparts are a combined 6-9 this year (Western is 3-2, Central 3-3 and Simon Fraser 0-4), Vidoni and her Voyageurs teammates are 14-11 on the season, 6-3 in conference play.

Vidoni, a freshman, has played in 11 sets over seven matches, compiling four kills and a dig.

College football raged across the land Saturday, and everywhere you looked, a former Wolf was in there fighting.

Four Coupeville High School alumni suited up for action in games stretching from Montana to Canada, and all had an impact.

Redshirt freshman lineman Nick Streubel and his Central Washington University teammates cruised to their first win of the season, clobbering visiting Western Oregon 40-19.

Meanwhile, freshmen defensive backs Josh Bayne and Jake Tumblin gave it their all, but couldn’t quite save Simon Fraser University from falling 16-10 to visiting Azusa Pacific.

Bayne collected six solo tackles and one assist, while Tumblin had two tackles, two assists and was in on a tackle for a loss as they and the rest of the Clan celebrated Homecoming.

Tumblin, Bayne and Streubel will be reunited next Saturday, Sept. 26, when Simon Fraser travels to Ellensburg to face Central.

Up Montana way, the elder statesman of former Wolf gridiron gods, junior Mitch Pelroy, doesn’t know what it’s like to lose these days.

Pelroy and his Montana Western squad crushed host Montana State-Northern 44-2 to go to 3-0 on the season.

The Bulldogs have won seven straight dating back to last season.

With MSN having no luck scoring, Pelroy only had one kickoff to deal with and he brought it back 22 yards.

He’s averaging 18.5 yards per return this season.

Pelroy also chipped in on defense, recording a tackle and an assist, while teammate Sam Rutherford lit up the scoreboard with four touchdowns.

Wolves. Wolves everywhere.

Saturday is a day generally devoted to college football and Coupeville High School alumni made their impact felt on the holiest of days.

Five former CHS stars are currently on college football rosters, with Nick Streubel (Central Washington) Joel Walstad (Midland), Mitch Pelroy (Montana Western), Jake Tumblin (Simon Fraser) and Josh Bayne (Simon Fraser) all following their dreams of gridiron glory.

Tumblin and Bayne made their college debuts Saturday, as both played in a 31-14 loss at Western Oregon.

“They both saw time on special teams. Both on kick-off and Josh on punt return. Jake saw snaps in the second quarter,” said Chris Tumblin.

Meanwhile, several states over, Pelroy, the elder statesman of the bunch, sparkled in Dillon as he and his Bulldog teammates rallied to beat the College of Idaho 24-20.

The speedy junior affected play in several ways, recovering a fumble and getting in on three tackles on defense and returning a pair of kickoffs.

He took one back 20 yards and the other 10.

Montana Western won the game when freshman quarterback J.D. Ferris hit tight end Matt Lickfold with a five-yard touchdown toss with just 18.9 seconds to play, capping an 80-yard drive while racing the clock.

The Bulldogs (2-0) have won six straight, keeping a streak alive that began late last season.

Bayne Train rumbles all over Yakima!!

Josh Bayne only played one-way this time, but it was more than enough.

The recent Coupeville High School grad, who was an All-State player on both sides of the ball during his senior season, sparkled on defense Saturday at the 21st Earl Barden East-West All-Star Classic.

Sparked by Bayne’s hard-hitting play from the corner-back position, the West held on for a 20-14 win in the game, played at East Valley High School in Yakima.

The game brings together the best players in 1A, 2B and 1B.

Bayne, who was the 1A Olympic League MVP, was one of the state’s leading rushers in 2014.

While he didn’t get any carries Saturday, he brought the heat in much the same way that also made him one of the best defenders in his class.

He recovered a fumble, made several tackles and swatted a pass down.

With all the offense coming in the game’s first half, Bayne and his West teammates clamped down at the end of the first half to seal the win.

With their backs to the wall, they refused to break and pulled off a goal line stop heading into the break.

The score would have been more lopsided, but the West had a pick six called back because of a personal foul behind the play.

Bayne, who was also a First-Team All-League player in baseball, will now take his skills to the college level, where he plans to play football at Simon Fraser.

He’ll be one of two speedy Wolves making the trip North of the border, as former Wolf rushing sensation Jake Tumblin is also slated to join the school’s gridiron squad, known as The Clan.

Simon Fraser is scheduled to play Central Washington twice this coming season.

Former CHS lineman Nick Streubel, who blocked for both Tumblin and Bayne, is on scholarship at CWU, having red-shirted his freshman year.
