UW Wins Pac-10

The Washington Huskies defeated their in-state rivals the WSU Cougars to clinch sole possession of the Pac-10 regular season title. It was hard-fought, however. I think the Cougars deserve to make a third straight trip to the NCAA Tournament.

This championship is huge for Seattle and this region. The last eleven months have been horrible for local sports. The Sonics no longer exist. The Mariners lose 101 games. The Seahawks go 4-12. The Husky football team is winless. Even the Cougar football team is terrible. Finally we have something to cheer for. Go Huskies!
