The Huskies gave us our 1st look at the men's basketball team under Coach Mike Hopkins in a 91-87 victory over D-II Saint Martin's. But it was not pretty. The Saints gave the Dawgs all they could handle as UW required a late rally to pull off the win.
The Saints seemingly couldn’t miss and were shooting over 55% from deep for most of the night. They used the shooting to take an early 21-13 lead over the Huskies. UW fought back and finally took the lead at 30-29 on a Carlos Johnson free throw before stretching it out to 46-40 at halftime.
