Washington Huskies Lose Again At Home

The Washington Huskies were upset

st home in a low scoring game to

Penn State 63-60. This means the 

Huskies will need to win almost all

their remaining games to make the

NCAA tournament. This was Penn

State first win on the road in Big Ten 

play.

Freshmen Hannes Steinbach led

the Huskies with 19 points and

14 rebounds. Steinbach likely 

will go to the NBA after one season.

Wesley Yates was the only other

player for the Huskies to score in

double figures with 11 points. They

played mostly with six players.

The Huskies shot only 37.7 percent

and was the main reason they lost.

The Huskies will play Minnesota 

at home on Saturday.   Minnesota 

lost at home on Sunday to Maryland 

however they will be more rested 

than the Huskies. Go Dawgs!

Klint Kubiak Off To Las Vegas

Can't blame someone whose dream

has been to be a head coach in the

NFL.

One day after the Seahawks won

the Super Bowl offensive coordinator 

Klint Kubiak was named head coach 

of thess Vegas Raiders.

I hope the Raiders give him a chance

no matter how they do next season.

Former Seahawks head coach Pete

Carroll only made it one season.

The Raiders I expect need a lot of 

help. It will be interesting what 

coaches may move over from the

Seahawks. The likelihood it will

be a few offensive coaches. 

This means promotions on both

teams. I am sure the Seahawks 

know who the next offensive 

coordinator will be. It will be

in-house as four offensive coaches 

are being interviewed Thursday 

and Friday. We will let you know who

it will be. 

The Seahawks could lose a few offensive 

players to in free agency. I am sure they will

try to keep as many as they can. Ken

Walker III will be one they will try the

best to keep. It may take putting

the franchise tag on him though.

The next few weeks should be interesting.

Go Hawks!

Gonzaga Beat WSU Cougars Tuesday Night

The Cougars didn't have a good 

first half scoring  on 21 points

while Zags had 48. Did much better 

in the second but couldn't overcome.

Final Zags 83 Cougars 53

The Zags always bounce back after 

a loss. They are now ranked 12th

so they at this point they are not

a number one seed for the NCAA 

tournament.

They shot muh better than the

Cougars and making 34 shots 

to the Cougars 18.  Neither shot

well from outside in the 3 point shot.

The Zags had 50 points inside

compared to the Cougars 22. 

The Cougars had 21 turnovers while

Zags had 10. 

Graham Ike led the Zags with 20 points

with three others in double figures.

The Zags will play Santa Clara on

their court Saturday. Both teams 

are 12-2 however Santa  Clara 

plays Seattle U Wednesday night.

They should be favored.. The Zags 

 beat Santa Clara the first time 

early January but it will be important 

to win again. Go Zags!

The Cougars on the other hand 

don't play again until next Wednesday 

at home against Pacific. The Cougars

are 6-8 in West Coast Conference 

while Pacific is 7-6. The Cougars 

have lost three in a row so important 

to get back to winning ways.

Wednesday night the Huskies play 

at home against Penn State. The

Huskies are 4-9 in the Big Ten and

have lost two in a row. Pen State 

is 1-12 so the Huskies can't afford

sn upset. Go Dawgs!

Major League Baseball Has Arrived

Sunday the Seahawks won the Super Bowl 

in fine fashion for the first time in 12 

years.  Now spring training begins this 

week for the Mariners. 

Most of the roster is set for the Mariners.

Injuries could open up a spot for someone.

Those playing in the WBC reported on Monday.  On Thursday the rest of the

pitchers and catchers will report. The

position players will come next Monday. 

I wonder if the Mariners will make

another trade or bring in a free agent.

I don't think Canzone and Raley will be

both on the team. Only if Robles isn't 

healthy.   Will the Mariners make a

trade if Colt Emerson isn't quite ready 

to go. I guess we will see.

While training camp is going on we can

still keep an eye open on the Seahawks.

Who is staying and who is going. We

question when Sam Darnold sign. I

guess he will be back next season. Lol

We get more into Seahawks over the 

next six months on occasion.  Who

won't return as well who stays. The

coaching staff will have moves to.

There is  college basketball as well.

Gonzaga will make the NCAA tournament.

What seatknv will they be. If the WSU

Cougars turn it up maybe then. The

Huskies have a good team but the Big 

Ten is pretty strong. 

Now enjoy basketball and baseball 

coming up. We hope to see the Sonics 

one day again. They were the first

major sports team in town. I would 

love to see them beat OKC. 

Seahawks Super Bowl Champions

The Seattle Seahawks showed Sunday 

afternoon why defense wins championships.

Final Seahawks 29 Patriots 13.

The Patriots defense showed they are

good as well. They may have won against

any other team.  

The Seahawks scored four field goals

before getting a touchdown after a

turnover.  The Patriots finally had a touchdown in the 4th quarter. The Seahawks had another field goal. The Seahawks defense stole a ball that went for a 

touchdown. The Patriots scored again but

too late. 

Ken Walker III was named MVP of the

Super Bowl. He rushed for 135 yards.

The Patriots covered the receivers 

for much of the game so Walker did

the job help out.

Hard to grade any part of the team

a grade lower than A.  See what

happens heading into next season.

Go Hawks!

Washington Huskies Lost At UCLA

The game was close most of the way

though near the end the Huskies had

to foul the Bruins a lot to have a chance

to win.

The Huskies got off to a hot start

however it didn't last though. The

Bruins ended up playing some good

defense and the Huskies went over

four minutes without making a field

goal  in the second half.

The Bruins had an eight point lead

however scraping and fouling at

the end gave them a chance though 

they lost in the end

Final Bruins 77 Huskies 73

Wesley Yates lead the Huskies with 21

points. Hannes Steinbach had 13

points but didn't look like he was part

of the offense like most of the year.

Also the Bruins didn't allow him have

double digits in rebounds either which

he has done much of the season.

Zoom Diallo didn't have a big night

either with seven points only. 

Quimari Peterson had a key three

point shot made at 1: 19  putting

Huskies within six points. Without

that the Huskies wouldn't have 

any chance to win  it would have 

been nice if the Huskies could have

stolen a game on the road but it

wasn't meant to me. A young team

we hope the Huskies learned 

something.

The Huskies play Penn State at home

on Wednesday night.  Penn State 

is at the bottom of the Big Ten with

a 1-11 record. This is a must win for

the Huskies.  The Huskies have

seven games left on the season.

They are all winnable and they 

are 12-12 on the season overall.

Making the NCAA tournament 

this should give them an opportunity.

They don't have a shot to be in

the top six of the conference even

if they won all seven but they could

go into the three or four  next teams.

Go Dawgs.

Gonzaga Wins At Oregon State

The game was different on Saturday 

afternoon for the Zags at Oregon State.

The Zags led by only four points at half 

time however dominated the second 

half winning 81-61.

Graham Ike back for his third game

since being injured for a few. He

dominated once again this time

scoring 35 points. He made 13 of

18 from the field and 8 of 9 from

the foul line. At this point he could 

be a good player in the NBA.

The Zags shot  57.1 percent and

made 50 points inside while the

Beavers had 10.

Gonzaga will play WSU Cougars on

Tuesday night at home. The second

game this year between both teams.

The Zags won at the Cougars  86-65

in their first match up on January 15.

After losing recently the Zags know they

have to do better.

The Cougars lost to Santa Clara in a

tough game in Pullman 96-92. Santa

Clara is a right ahead of the Zags so

maybe the Cougs will knock of the

Zags this time of the can play the

same way.  

Eemeli Yalaho who has been a bit 

inconsistent led the Cougars led

them with 21 points while  Ace Glass

had 20 points.  They had four of

five starters score in double figures

unlike against Oregon State on

Wednesday. Both teams shot well 

from the field though lost despite 

shooting better from outside the

three point line.  Go Cougs. 

The Washington Huskies play UCLA 

on the road. The Bruins have done well 

over the Huskies at home over the

years. The Huskies need this one 

if they want to make it into the

NCAA tournament this March.

Go Huskies.
