The Port Townsend High School football team is on a roll, and visiting Coupeville became the Redhawks’ latest victim, 52-0, Friday, Sept. 25.

With the win, Port Townsend (2-0, 4-0), ranked eighth in last week’s Associated Press high school 1A poll, has now outscored opponents 197-6 in four games.

Coupeville slipped to 1-1 (1-3 overall) in Olympic League play and faces Klahowya (1-1, 3-1) in a big conference contest at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 2, at Mickey Clark Field.

The Wolves and Eagles are tied for second in the Olympic League 1A standings; the top two teams advance to the playoffs.

Klahowya stopped Chimacum 55-18 Friday.

The game will be Coupeville’s first at home this fall after starting the season with four road trips.

The game will also finish the first round of league games for Coupeville, then the Wolves will play each league foe (Port Townsend, Chimacum and Klahowya) again to close-out the conference slate.

Port Townsend wasted little time in taking control of Friday’s game, zipping to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter and pushing the lead to 42-0 at the break.

The Redhawks tacked on a TD in the third quarter and hit a field goal in the fourth.

Not only did Port Townsend rack up 52 points and 443 yards of total offense, but it featured a stout defense.

Coupeville mustered only three first downs and 35 yards of offense.

Quarterback Gabe Eck competed eight of 13 passes for 46 yards and two interceptions.

C.J. Smith caught five of those passes for 32 yards, while Ty Eck grabbed two for six yards and Jordan Ford one for eight yards.

Thanks to numerous sacks by the Redhawk defense, the Wolves finished with a minus 11 yards rushing.

Wiley Hesselgrave ran for 17 yards on five rushes.

Lathom Kelley led the defense with 10 tackles, Ty Eck had nine, Uriel Liquidano seven and Hesselgrave six.

Port Townsend’s David Sua hit six of eight passes for 116 yards and one touchdown.

Wesley Wheeler rushed for 123 yards on 11 carries, and Ezra Easley added 100 yards on nine carries.

“Port Townsend is a very good team and I expect to see them go far in the playoffs,” Coupeville coach Brett Smedley said. “Our kids fought hard all night and there was absolutely no quit in them, which is something we have been preaching all season.

“The coaching staff is extremely proud of the players for their attitudes and efforts and willingness to go out and fight hard for their brothers and the CHS community.”
