UW’s Chris Petersen takes helicopter to see nation’s top offensive line recruit, Foster Sarell

For the first time in his career, UW coach Chris Petersen took a helicopter to go see the nation's top-ranked offensive lineman from Graham-Kapowsin.

It was a first for Chris Petersen. A first for Foster Sarell, too.

The Washington Huskies coach took a helicopter to Tacoma to see the nation’s top-ranked high-school offensive lineman from Graham-Kapowsin High School, the first time Petersen said he has done that in his coaching career.

If you needed visual evidence of just how important a recruiting target Sarell is for the Huskies, there it was hovering over Curtis High School in University Place during pregame warmups Friday night.
