Huskies Set For Fewing Cup At Seattle U
September 20, 2023 | Men's Soccer
SEATTLE – No. 7 Washington returns to Seattle for a matchup at Seattle U on Thursday night for the eighth annual Fewing Cup. Kickoff from Championship Field is set for 7 p.m. and airing on ESPN+.
LAST TIME OUT
Washington opened Pac-12 play with four points to sit tied atop of the conference standings with Oregon State. The Huskies came away with a draw at No. 1 Stanford on Thursday before their first win in conference action at Cal on Sunday.
FEWING CUP
The match marks the eighth time the two team will compete for the Fewing Cup (previously known as the WAC/101 Club Cup). The cup is named in honor of Seattle U's former head coach, Pete Fewing. The Washington Athletic Club sponsors the cup, with the winning team receiving a donation to its soccer program from the WAC. The Washington Athletic Club is committed to supporting amateur athletics and providing opportunities for youth athletes to continue their path in sports. The Huskies lead the Fewing Cup series, 7-1.
TOP OF THE PAC
For the second year in a row, the Huskies were picked to finish first in the conference in the preseason poll, voted on by the league's six coaches. In addition, four Huskies - Sam Fowler, Nate Jones, Christian Soto and Kalani Kossa-Rienzi - were named to the Pac-12 preseason team.
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) and fourth in GAA (0.72, within range of Andrew Thomas' record 0.67).
THE RETURNERS
Plenty of experience returns for Washington with 27 returners from the 2022 team, including All-Pac-12 selections Nate Jones, Kalani Kossa-Rienzi, Chris Meyers, Imanol Rosales and Christian Soto.
THE NEWCOMERS
The Huskies also brought in some new talent with six freshman and four transfers – Peter Kingston (Seattle U), Mani Diop (Akron), Bryan Iliohan (Cal Baptist) and Conner Leber (Cal Poly). Freshman Charlie Kosakoff joined the program back in January as an early enrollee and played the entire spring season with the team.
ROAD DAWGS
The Huskies are on a 20-match unbeaten streak on the road. Washington is 15-0-5 dating back to the 2021 season.
USL2 CHAMPS
Peter Kingston, Khai Brisco and Joe Dale competed with Ballard FC this summer as the squad went on to win the USL2 National Championship with the 2-1 win over Lionsbridge FC on Aug. 5. Kingston scored the match-winning goal in stoppage time on his way to being named MVP. The title is the first for Ballard in its history.
