Seattle, Wash. | Husky Soccer Stadium


ABOUT THE MATCHUPS
The Cougs have one final match in the regular season to bolster their postseason recume as WSU heads to the westside to take on Washington Friday night...WSU sits on the bubble of an at-large bid after a split in Arizona that left the Cougs' RPI at 47...A win against Washington should put WSU on the right side of the bubble, however, nothing will
be decided until the selection show Monday, Nov. 6 at 4:30 pm. The Cougs will look to push their win streak against the Huskies to three matches Friday night...last season, WSU took a 2-0 decision in Pullman while two years ago it was a 3-1 win for the Cougs in Seattle...all-time, WSU sits at 13-7-6 against UW including a 5-2-2 mark on the road.

LAST TIME OUT
From start to finish the Cougs were in complete control in the desert as WSU shutout ASU behind the strength of a 63' minute strike from freshman Elyse Bennett...The goal would hold up thanks to a stifling defense that held the Sun Devils to just nine shots with only one really testing Ella Dederick in goal as the third-year keeper earned her ninth
shutout of the year...Sunday, the Cougs suffered a tough loss at Arizona as the Wildcats scored the contest's lone goal in the 7' to capture victory.

ABOUT THE HUSKIES
The Huskies enter the final regular season game one spot behind the Cougs in the standings after dropping a pair of games against Arizona (2-1) and Arizona State (1-0)...Kimberly Keever scored her sixth goal of the season, giving her three years of six or more goals and 22 goals in her career.  That total puts her tied for fifth in Washington history, tied with Caroline Putz.  Keever has now matched her career-high in points as well with 14 this season.
