🔼 So Fresh, So Clean. In their final home game of the 2025 season, the WSU women’s soccer team posted its sixth clean sheet of the year, rolling past visiting San Francisco, 3-0, on Wednesday evening.

Senior Jordyn Young scored a pair of first half goals to pace the Cougar offense, while classmate Maggie Mace added a third on a penalty kick in the second half.

Veteran keeper Zora Standifer notched a season-high six saves for her third solo shutout of the year.

⚽️ The Full Recap

🔼 Taking Flight. MBB preview vs. Davidson

🔼 Young Gun. The youngest player in all of NCAA women’s hoops got her first taste of the action this week as 16-year-old Malvina Haziri knocked down a corner 3️⃣ in her first collegiate action with the Cougs.

Haziri and her teammates were unable to overcome UNLV in a grind-it-out game on Wednesday, falling to the Rebels, 64-51.

🏀 The Full Recap

🔼 A Balancing Act. With one glance at Leyton Smithson, you see the two worlds he juggles, a six-foot-one wide receiver with countless tattoos and creative design on his tee shirt. If you ask about the tattoos, he will tell you they are inspired by famous designers Sailor Jerry and Bert Grimm. This is just one of the art forms the Wazzu senior expresses.

During the early mornings of spring ball, Smithson is there with the team. After practice, he goes to classes, then he meets back with his team for meetings, but after that he steers away from his teammates. 

"As soon as meetings get out most people are going home but I'm going back to the art building to work on some ceramics or some screen printing," Smithson said.
