For one play, it was perfect.

After that, an extremely thin Coupeville High School JV football team wasn’t able to hang for long Monday with a South Whidbey squad anxious for revenge after watching their varsity counterparts lose “The Bucket.”

The Wolves were barely able to suit enough players to take the field and eventually fell 52-8 while losing two players — James Vidoni and Mitchell Losey — to possible concussions.

Which doesn’t mean there weren’t highlights for CHS. Starting with Tim Goss picking off a pass on the very first play of the game.

Wolf JV coach Ryan King also singled out Gabe Wynn, Brenden Gilbert and Mitchell Carroll for their play on defense (“the kids played their hearts out”) and quarterback Hunter Smith and receiver Hunter Downes on offense.

Clay Reilly broke Coupeville’s biggest play of the afternoon, busting out a 60-yard touchdown run.

Tim "The Terminator" Goss

Tim “The Terminator” Goss

There’s more to Tim Goss than just baseball.

While “The Terminator” swung a big bat for the Coupeville High School JV squad this season, he enjoys a wide range of activities away from the diamond.

From fencing, biking and hiking to camping with his family during summer vacation, he’s a well-rounded guy.

And a guy who, not having played ball since his tee ball days, embraced a return to baseball this season.

“I just started, because I wanted to and because it seemed fun,” Goss said. “I enjoy being able to be a part of a team and actually participate with them.”

Like most new players, he is a work in progress, but he is building towards a strong future.

“My strengths … those I don’t have many of, so right now I’m working on them,” Goss said. “The areas I like to work on are hitting, grounders, and rushing the ball.

“My goals are to play next year and actually be able to play in more games.”

As he takes steps forward, Goss has a strong support crew to lean on, headed up by a current Wolf baseball star.

“Well there’s first my mom and dad supporting me,” he said. “And then there’s Ben Etzell.

“He has been a real help and then the rest of the team too.”
