team finally won in the Pac-12 season. The
Huskies actually swept the two game series
at home first beating Colorado Thursday
night 84-80. Sunday they beat Utah 83-79.
Not only did the Huskies win both games
the first in the Pac-12 after going 0-7 they
had offense scoring in eighties instead of
the sixties the worst in the conference.
Against Colorado they got off to a slow
start which is custom for the Huskies
however they found a way to get back
into the game and keep to close to finally
taking the lead and keeping down the
stretch.
Against Utah Jamal Bey had 28 points
a career high. He only missed one shot
on the night. Finally Bey showed what
he is capable of. Usually he has one good
half but isn't there the other half.
Quade Green had 20 points on the night.
Green is the Huskies leading scorer and
really only player who has played well
over the season consistently.
The Huskies will have a week off before
taking on state rival Washington State
Cougars. We hope the Huskies have turned
the corner and start winning consistently
The Cougars on the other hand got off to
a very good start winning all non-conference
game going 7-0. They opened the Pac-12
season beating Oregon State and have only
beat California since who are near the bottom
of the Pac-12. They lost to both Utah and
Colorado this week. Both of the schools
have good teams so it would have been
hard to lose to Washington and Washington
State.
The Cougars are just ahead of the Huskies
in the stands. The game this coming Sunday
will be in Seattle. The Huskies played like
against Colorado and Utah it will be hard
for the Cougars to win though it likely will
be a close game.
The Gonzaga Bulldogs are still number one
team in the nation after beating Pacific very
handily 95-49. They were led by Drew Timme
in scoring with 22 points. The Bulldogs
will take on San Diego this coming Thursday
followed by Pepperdine both games on the
road. We see whether Gonzaga will go all
the way undefeated till the NCAA tournament.
