Washington Huskies Get Back on Track With Win Against Arizona
On Friday, January 19, the Washington Huskies Women’s basketball team found themselves getting back on track with a nice two point victory against the now 10-8 Arizona Wildcats.
The first quarter was all Huskies with the Dawgs climbing to a 21-12 edge in that ten minutes. Both teams started with three turnovers, but it was Washington shooting at 8-14 from the field that made the difference. In a quarter where Elle Ladine started with the initial assist to Dalayah Daniels and the final jumper at the end, the Huskies were able to set the tone.
The second quarter saw Arizona try to come back a bit, outscoring the Huskies 14-11 for a halftime score of 32-26.
The seventh ranked team in the Pac-12 stumbled into the second half teetering on a 6 point lead, something they’d have to fight to keep in order to prevent a five game losing streak. They did just that barely edging the Wildcats 17-15 in the third quarter. With turnovers starting to pile on it was Elle Ladine who put the game on her shoulders and for the team’s highest scorer at about 13 points per game at tip-off, she finished with 22 on 9-17 shooting.
Arizona managed to take the lead late in the fourth quarter going up 58-57 in Seattle. On their home court, the Huskies put together an 5-2 run in the last minute and a half. The go ahead bucket went Lauren Schwartz, assisted by Hannah Stines to put the Huskies back on track.
The last time the Huskies grabbed a win was December 16, 2023 against St Mary’s Gaels.
The team’s leading rebounder last night was Jayda Noble at 9 and the leading player with assists on either side of the ball was Dalayah Daniels at 5.
The next game is against Arizona State this Sunday at 12PM.

A US Air Force helicopter made a precautionary landing in northwest Washington, DC late Monday, local media reported.
The incident occurred at approximately 9.25 p.m. (0125GMT Tuesday) when a UH-1N Huey helicopter assigned to the 1st Helicopter Squadron at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland landed along Foxhall Road near Whitehaven Parkway NW, close to the Georgetown Reservoir.
All four crew members who were on board are safe, according to media reports.
Maintenance personnel and law enforcement officials remained at the scene into the early hours of Tuesday as authorities assessed the aircraft and investigated the circumstances surrounding the landing.
See what a ‘super’ El Niño could bring
USA TODAY Network reporter Brandi D. Addison breaks down what a strong El Niño could mean for weather patterns across the country.
It may be the middle of July, but the Old Farmer’s Almanac is already looking ahead to the fall with cooler temperatures ahead.
The Almanac, which has been one of the most trusted weather prediction sources for more than two centuries, recently released its fall forecast, showing a wide range of weather throughout the United States.
But what about in the Washington DC region? Here’s what the Almanac says.
What is the fall weather forecast in the Washington DC area?
DC sits along the Almanac’s Atlantic Corridor, and that region should expect a “cool, dry” fall, according to the forecast.
“Expect cooler and wetter conditions than usual this fall,” the Old Farmer’s Almanac says. “Below average temperatures are forecast, along with an uptick in precipitation over traditional averages.”
Last year, DC received 6.53 inches of rain during September, October and November — significantly lower than the city’s 30-year average of 10.50 inches, according to the National Weather Service.
September’s average temperature was 72.2 degrees, with October at 60.3 and November at 49.9 degrees. The season had an average temperature of 60.8 degrees, slightly below the 30-year average of 61.0 degrees.
What does the Farmer’s Almanac say about winter in Washington DC?
In its long-range forecast, the Almanac forecasts above average temperatures this winter in DC with snowfall below normal.
“The coldest periods will occur in mid- to late-December and early and late January,” it says. “The snowiest periods will be in late December, early January, and late February.”
The Old Farmer’s Almanac says it is 80% accurate, but a 2017 University of Illinois study found it to be just 52% accurate.
