The Huskies entered tonight on a 3-game win streak after managing to pull out a pair of very close contests recently. They didn’t have to worry about winning in crunch time tonight as Washington was blown out almost from the jump in a dispiriting 86-61 loss at Utah. The Utes used a 15-0 run in the first half to run away from the Huskies who only briefly ever got it back within single digits. The loss drops Washington to 12-9 (4-6) on the season.
Washington’s offense was out of sorts from the start as Menifield and Williams each missed open layups and then Brooks missed a wide open corner 3.
