To the dots!
Football Dots:
- Saturday was a good day to be a Husky with football back, fans in the stands, and more than enough exciting plays to get the hype train rolling for this Fall.
Purple squad gets the W‼️

In an undeniably crowded running back room, UW junior Richard Newton reintroduced himself with a typically violent 15-yard touchdown in the Purple vs. Gold game on Saturday. (by @mikevorel) https://t.co/8hngSGUGGr

- A number of guys who haven’t gotten extended reps to date made big impressions on Saturday. IMO, Bralen Trice, Elijah Jackson, Devin Culp, Noa Ngalu, Jacob Bandes, and Taj Davis have a real shot at either breaking out this year, or are at least ready to make the leap when they get their shot. Looks like a few others would agree.

Their answers: Taj Davis and Bralen Trice
NFL Draft Dots:
- ICYMI this weekend in the Spring Football hype, the NFL welcomed a whole new class of Pro Dawgs.

- Am I the only one that misses the excitement & fanfare of the Windermere Cup?
Washington won the men's and women's @WindermereCup vs. Cal, and won eight of 10 races in total on Saturday.

The traditional big crowds were missing at the Windermere Cup, but the “magic” was back at the Montlake Cut. The Huskies made it even more special, defeating rival Cal in the top two men’s and women’s rowing races. https://t.co/blqnNQG9yj
