SEATTLE \u2013 No. 13 Washington continued its winning ways on Wednesday, taking down Seattle U 3-1 at Husky Soccer Stadium. The victory keeps the Fewing Cup on Montlake and improves UW’s record in the series to 9-2.<\/p>\n
Washington improves to 8-3-2 on the season with the win.<\/p>\n
The Huskies wasted no time in getting the party started. Wyatt Lewis<\/a> opened the scoring just 68 seconds into the match, collecting his own rebound and firing it home for the first goal of the match.<\/p>\n It was Lewis’ first goal as a Husky and gave the Dawgs the lead barely a minute into the contest.<\/p>\n The next goal was another first, as Cameron Cruz<\/a> bagged his first collegiate goal in the 43rd minute. Zach Ramsey<\/a> played a free kick into the box where it was headed up by Kevin Hernandez<\/a>. Cameron Cruz<\/a> caught the airborne ball with a bicycle kick, sending it to the near post.<\/p>\n The acrobatic strike doubled the lead for Washington just before halftime.<\/p>\n Washington was the aggressor in first half, tallying 11 shots to Seattle U’s zero.<\/p>\n The Huskies brought home the third goal of the match in the 73rd minute off a beautifully worked run of play. At the top of the box, Zach Ramsey<\/a> slid a pass along to Clarens Dollin<\/a> who passed it right back to Ramsey as he diced through the Seattle U defenders. Ramsey came up with the ball with a clear look on goal and just the keeper to beat.<\/p>\n Washington’s star striker buried the shot, netting his 16th goal of the season. The strike ties him for fourth in Washington’s record book for goals in a season and is the joint-most in a season since David Berto scored 17 goals in 1989.<\/p>\n Seattle U would go on to pull a goal back in the 88th minute, but it wouldn’t be enough to alter the result.<\/p>\n Washington dominated across the 90 minutes, outshooting Seattle U 18-4 and collecting 10 corners to the visitors’ four.<\/p>\n Stockton Short<\/a> made his return in goal, playing the full 90 minutes while making one save. Egor Akulov<\/a>, Connor Lofy<\/a>, Wyatt Lewis<\/a>, and Gabe Fernandez<\/a> each chipped in 90 minutes of game time as well.<\/p>\n Washington has the weekend off before returning to Big Ten action at Michigan and Michigan State next week.<\/p>\n For news, scores, highlights and more,\u00a0download the Go Huskies app<\/a>\u00a0on your mobile device.
