I'm not used to this

Seattle-related sports teams winning a championship.

Well done gals, now can the men finally step up? The Storm and now the UW softball team did their part.

The Softball program has officially arrived – all the near misses don’t sting as much any more.

That whole World Series tournament was a lot of fun to watch. A nice break from the M’s and NBA this time of year. I really enjoyed watching how much fun the women were having and how loose they played.

Great job Ladies. Is Men’s crew next??? Come on Men.

Never watched so much Softball

and really really liked it. I love watching Women’s Volleyball too a couple years back when UW was in it. The girls are really showing the boys up right now…not for long though.

Congratulations!

I’m not sure if the hardcore rivalry extends to women’s softball, so hopefully I’m not less of a Coug for saying I’m glad you guys won!

Thanks johnnycougar

When Oregon State was winning the NCAA Wold Series, I loved Beavs Baseball. Always, Always, and Always a Husky fan first. But I do have a rooting interest in our Pac 10 brethern. Whoops! Rooting interest in all Pac 10 schools except for the ducks.

hate the ducks!

All I saw was purple

Thanks Johnny. I’m biased, but I’d guess this Husky team would’ve been pretty easy to root for – how can you not admire the amazing toughness, talent and will to win of this group, especially Lawrie?
