COACH BUTEHORN SAID
"Washington rarely loses at home so for us to play them even statistically isn't good enough," said head coach Bob Butehorn. "We had to finish our chances and be more assertive with our game."
- USF's record in all-time season openers moved to 39-17-4.
- Washington has won all three meetings in the all-time series.
- Alan Horrocks collared his first career start in between the posts.
