SEATTLE – The stage is set once again for Washington vs. Washington State on the track and in the field in the latest installment in a storied rivalry that is going on its second century. The annual UW-WSU Dual, part of the Boeing Apple Cup Series, goes off in Pullman this Saturday as both teams pull out all the stops to claim state supremacy.
The meet begins with field events at 11 a.m. at WSU's Mooberry Track and the first running event is scheduled for 1 p.m. Admission is free for all spectators.
The scoring format awards 5 points for 1st-place, 3 for 2nd-place, and 1 for 3rd-place in every individual event. Relays are big as the winning team gets 5 points with zero for second.
This is the 99th overall Dual on the men's side, and the 39th Dual between the women's teams. Washington State holds the lead on the men's side, 58-39-1. The Huskies hold the edge in the women's race, 21-17, dating back to 1979.
Washington and Washington State's first track meet came in 1900, in a tri-meet that included Idaho. The first head-to-head meeting came the next year in 1901 which the Huskies won in Seattle, 96 to 26. The UW men won 14 of the first 16 Duals, but the Cougars dominated a 20 year stretch from 1976 to 1995, winning 19 men's duals in a row. The Husky men have now won five in a row, their longest streak since winning 11 straight from 1915-32. If the men win again this year, it would mark the first time UW has won in six consecutive years.
On the women's side, the Dawgs won the first six dual meets, and 15 of the first 18, before WSU won 10 of the next 11. The Huskies have now won five of the past nine meetings and are on a three-year win streak.
Washington has swept the past three Dual Meets, but the win for the men came down to the final event last year, as the Huskies came from behind to capture the 4x400-meter relay and secure a five-point win at Husky Track. Saturday, the Huskies will be aiming for a fourth-straight sweep, which would be a program record. Washington has only two Dual Meet sweeps in Pullman, the last one in 2016, and twenty years earlier in 1996.
Saturday will also be the final competition for many of the Dawgs prior to the Pac-12 Championships. The intensity of the Dual Meet competition annually results in some of the best marks of the season for the Huskies. Husky athletes recorded 36 season-bests last season in the Dual.
