Sometime before Washington’s game against UCLA, senior point guard David Crisp looked at a picture from his freshman season.
The Dawg Pack, UW’s student section inside Alaska Airlines Arena, was mostly empty in the photo. There were maybe 30 people in the stands. When stepped on the court on Saturday, Crisp took a moment to really appreciate the difference.
“To see how it is now? You can’t describe it,” he said. “That’s what you dream about when you come to play college basketball.”
In Saturday’s 69-55 victory over the Bruins, UW played in front of their first sellout crowd of the season.
