ABOUT WASHINGTON STATE

WSU is now 9-4 in conference play after a 2-0 weekend at home with wins against Pacific and Saint Mary’s. The Cougs are 7-1 at home this season, and have won six of their last nine matches, and 14 of their last 20. Although losing their first two games to begin the season, they were competitive matches as the Cougs worked through early adjustments with some new faces. The Cougs returned five from the 2023 team, including Logann Golden, Weronika Wojdyla, Katy Ryan, Emma Barbero and Lucie Blažková. In addition to the returners, nine newcomers have entered the program, including grad transfers Sage Brustad (Eastern Washington), Jaden Walz (Bowling Green) and Jade Warren (College of Idaho); junior transfers Keniya Cleveland (Feather River College), Taryn Vrieling (Idaho) and Kylie Wong (Arizona); and incoming true freshmen Italia Bernal, Haumea Marumoto and Breccan Scheck.

Wednesday’s match will be the 46th all-time between WSU and Gonzaga, with the Cougars holding the edge over the previous 45 meetings with a 35-10 record going back to their first match in 1977 that saw WSU win 2-0. The Cougs have won each of the last seven matches against the Zags, including a 3-0 win at home earlier this season.

Saturday’s match will be the 11th meeting between WSU and Portland, and second this season after WSU won at home 3-2 on Oct. 3. The Cougars have won each of the last seven meetings, including wins in 2024 (3-2), 2019 (3-0), 2011 (3-2), 2009 (3-0), 2007 (3-0), 2006 (3-0), and 2005 (3-1).
