Washington Huskies Weekly Update

Well she's done it again. Danielle Lawrie broke another Washington Huskies school record on Sunday when she fanned 24 batters in 15 innings pitched in the 3rd and deciding game of the Softball Regionals against UMass. She totaled 251 pitches in the game which lasted 5 hours and 13 minutes. With the 6-1 win UW advanced to the Super Regionals against Georgia Tech starting on Saturday. The game was the longest for the Huskies since 2006 against Arizona State, a game they lost in 13 innings.

And that wasn't all from Lawrie, this was game two of double header. The first game UMass won 5-1 and Lawrie only threw 144 pitches in that game. The total time for the two games was 7 hours and 49 minutes.

Also in the Pac-10 Crew Championships the UW men took home second in the final team standings, coming up 3 points shy of 1st place California. At the same event the women took home 3rd behind 1st place California and 2nd place Stanford.
