SEATTLE — A bevy of Big Island football talent was on the field as No. 5 Washington used a big first half to roll past Oregon State 41-17 on Saturday.
SEATTLE — A bevy of Big Island football talent was on the field as No. 5 Washington used a big first half to roll past Oregon State 41-17 on Saturday.
Kealakehe’s Psalm Wooching (LB) and Hawaii Prep’s Shane Brostek (OL) helped lead the way for the Huskies, while Hilo’s Drew Kell (S) and Manase Hungalu (LB) suited up for the Beavers.
Wooching and Hungalu each had a tackle, while Brostek saw some time in the trenches. Kell did not register any stats.
The Huskies (7-0, 4-0 Pac-12) won their 10th straight, a streak that started with a victory at Oregon State last season. It is Washington’s longest win streak since winning 12 straight during the 2000-01 seasons.
Coming off a bye, the Huskies easily rolled past the undermanned Beavers (2-5, 1-3) despite a performance that gives Washington coach Chris Petersen plenty to work on heading into next week’s matchup at No. 19 Utah. Washington put away this expected blowout early, jumping to a 21-0 lead after one quarter and leading 31-0 at halftime. Washington has now outscored opponents 100-7 in the first quarter and 200-24 in the first half this season.
