SEATTLE – No. 20 Washington looks to bounce back on Thursday night as it hosts No. 21 San Diego State. Kickoff from Husky Soccer Stadium is set for 7 p.m. and airing on Pac-12 Washington.
LAST TIME OUT
Washington dropped its first conference contest of the season in a 2-0 decision vs. Oregon State last Saturday at Husky Soccer Stadium.
PAC-12 RECORD WATCH
Sam Fowler has a chance to become the Pac-12's all-time leader in both career shutouts and GAA (Goals Against Average). He enters his senior campaign third on the Conference's clean sheets list (28, two behind Spencer Richey's Pac-12 record 30).
RANKED NON-CON MATCHUPS
The last time the Huskies faced a ranked non-conference opponent was twice in 2019 vs. then-No. 18 Denver and at No. 16 Michigan State prior to the match at No. 3 Indiana. Under head coach Jamie Clark, the Huskies are 8-4-1 all-time in ranked regular season non-conference matchups.
HOME FIELD ADVANTAGE
Since 1997, the Huskies have posted a 180-64-20 overall record at Husky Soccer Stadium, winning at least eight matches in 13 seasons including a 10-1-2 mark in 2013. Last season, the Huskies set a new program record for single-match attendance when 3,876 people came to see Washington take on Seattle U in the Fewing Cup.
SPREADING THE WEALTH
The Huskies have seen nine different goal scorers this season accounting for 12 goals. Four Huskies - Mani Diop, Harrison Bertos, Charlie Kosakoff and Nick O'Brien have all scored their first career goals this season.

Austin Brummett leads the team with six goals and 15 points while Alexander Levengood has recorded six assists. In total, the Aztecs have seen nine different goal scorers accounting for 24 goals.
