Husky women

Haley Van Dyke scored 19 points and hauled down 11 rebounds for the Huskies in a 60-52 loss to Washington State University on Friday.

"I thought Haley Van Dyke came to life," said Huskies head coach Jody Wynn.  "She did a really good job posting up smaller guards and I thought she did a really good job of cutting away from the ball.  In the end, she did a better job of gathering herself and slowing down.  That's definitely a bright spot for us."

The UW (4-1) rebounded for an 83-56 non-conference home win over Portland this past Sunday.

Quay Miller scored 19 and racked up nine rebounds to lead the way for a Washington team that broke its record for shooting percentage in a home game.

The UW shot 65.8 percent (35-for-54) from the field.

"We didn't settle for anything that was off balance the entire day and that was the difference," Wynn said.
