Following a 41-17 win over Oregon State, coupled with Ohio State’s loss at Penn State, the Washington Huskies moved up a notch to No. 4 in the AP and coaches polls.
Washington raced to a 38-3 lead and then eased before dispatching 37-point underdog Oregon State 41-17 Saturday night. The Huskies improved to 7-0, 4-0 in Pac-12 play.
The Seahawks will have TE Jimmy Graham, DE Frank Clark and RB C.J. Prosise available for Sunday’s game at Arizona, but it looks as if two defensive starters, SS Kam Chancellor and OLB Kevin Pierre-Louis, will be out. For the second game in a row, Kelcie McCray will fill in for Chancellor.
Washington finished sixth and Washington State 12th in the Pac-12 preseason media basketball poll. Oregon is the overwhelming favorite to win the conference championship.
All six of manager Scott Servais’s coaches — Manny Acta (3B), Tim Bogar (bench), Casey Candaele (1B), Mike Hampton (bullpen), Edgar Martinez (hitting) and Mel Stottlemyre (pitching) — will return for the 2017 season, the Mariners announced Thursday. Scott Brosius will move up from AAA Tacoma and join the staff as an assistant hitting coach.
The Seahawks Tuesday signed DL Sealver Siliga to replace Garrison Smith, consigned to injured reserve. TE Luke Willson’s knee injury apparently has required surgery.
The Mariners Monday provided updates on three players who have undergone recent medical procedures, including Taijuan Walker, the 24-year-old right hander who went 8-11, 4.22 in 25 starts during the 2016 season and figures prominently in the team’s rotation plans.
The Seahawks (4-1) overcame a litany of mistakes and botched plays in the second half and rallied for a 26-24 victory over the Atlanta Falcons Sunday at CenturyLink Field.
Washington (6-0), idle this past week, remained at No. 5 in the Associated Press and Coaches polls, both released Sunday. The Huskies host Oregon State next Saturday.
