Washington Opens Pac-12 Play at Oregon State Saturday
September 26, 2018 | Men's Soccer

Washington is looking to get back in the win column after a pair of tough defeats.

It was the second-straight match UW was shutout after scoring at least two goals in each of the team's first six matches.
The Huskies open Pac-12 play with three-straight road games and five of their first seven on the road before closing the season with four-straight home games--including three Pac-12 matches.
Washington finished the 2017 season with a 5-4-1 record in Pac-12 play, placing third in the conference standings. Washington has finished no worse than third in seven seasons under Head Coach Jamie Clark, winning the title in 2013 and finishing as the runner-up three times.
Kyle Coffee and Joey Parish continue to lead the team in points with nine each. Coffee has four goals and an assist this season while Parish has added three goals and three assists.
The Oregon State Beavers At A Glance

Boss was an assistant at OSU in 2013 and spent four seasons as an assistant at Virginia. Now, in his first season as head coach, he looks to turn around a team that has finished below .500 in each of the last three seasons.
The offense has been sharp, scoring an average of 1.5 goals per game. Senior forward Don Tchilao leads the way with four goals and has added three assists. Oregon State leads the conference in shots (120; 15.0 per game) and in corner kicks (51; 6.38 per game)
