Husky Softball Falls 3-1 to USF in Fayetteville

For much of the latter part of the Huskies’ schedule, it was clear that they had some work to do, despite the amount talent that they possess on the roster. Swept against Oregon and UCLA, they weren’t quite elite, but still had plenty of talent. This team has the capacity to go on a run […]

UW Softball Weekly Roundup: Starting Over

It is officially survive and advance time as the Huskies will take on South Florida in the Fayetteville regional on Friday evening. But, how we got here is also worth discussing.

Why Ruin a Good Thing?

All money isn’t good money. It’s a life lesson that must be learned by those with a hunger for increasing their income. Typically, the refrain is used in rags-to-riches style films, where one must confront the reality that desperation leaves them vulnerable to overlooking a trap or taking a dumb risk. In other film styles, […]

Friday Dots: Hurry Up and Wait

Good Friday morning Husky fans. We’ve got some news to get to this morning, but let us begin with the most pressing news involving UW’s Softball team.

Thursday Dots: March Randomness

The NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournaments will expand to 76 teams beginning in 2027. The move is purely financial, as it does not elevate competition within the tournament. It does create more slots for the UW men’s program, which has struggled mightily in recent years, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to pretend to […]

Wednesday Dots: 50

UW Women’s Softball opens Big Ten Tournament play today (hopefully). UW Athletics continue their “Academic Prowess”. There is a push to expand the CFP to 24 teams. And Jedd Fisch turned 50 yesterday. Those and more for your Wednesday Dots. Football Dots UW Athletics Dots

UW Softball Weekly Roundup: Losing Streak Ends, But Struggles Persist

Washington entered the final weekend of the regular season with a chance to solidify its standing near the top half of the Big Ten, but a trip to Columbus instead exposed many of the same issues that have lingered beneath the surface for much of the year. The Huskies dropped two of three to Ohio […]

Former Husky Voi Tunuufi Dies at 23

News came out on Monday afternoon that former Husky DL Voi Tunuufi had passed away. Initial reports indicated that he was killed in a motorcycle accident. Tunuufi, who played for Washington from 2021-2024, was 23 years old. I have two memories of Tunuufi that will always stay with me. The first is that he was […]

Team Purple Defeats Team Gold, 27-10 in Dawgs After Dark

With these kinds of spring games, you usually don’t get a sense of what the team’s trajectory is going to be, considering that it’s so early in the process of preparation for the season. What you do get is fun, and an opportunity to see the future. Both of these were on display Friday night […]

UW Football Spring Position Preview: Special Teams

UW’s Special Teams in Jedd Fisch’s first season as Head Coach were worse than bad. Fisch hired Chris Petrilli as a full time special teams coach in hopes of righting the ship. Things improved for the Dawgs in 2025, but it would have been hard to get worse. UW got more touchbacks on kickoffs, fewer […]

UW Softball Weekly Roundup: Trouble Bruin?

It was a rough series for the Huskies last weekend in Eugene, with the Dawgs getting swept by the hated Ducks, in what was sort of a barometer series for the team to test themselves against tougher competition. Our own Andrew Berg suggested that it showed the team could generate offense, but struggled containing the […]

Welcome back to the next installment of our preview of the position groups for the Huskies.
