Huskies start fast, hold off Washington State 28-15 in snowy Apple Cup

At halftime, two plows took turns clearing the snow from the field at Martin Stadium. By the third quarter, the field was covered again. Workers with shovels raced back-and-forth, carving out yard markers.

This Apple Cup was as wild as the weather. The fans who stayed — the crowd thinned significantly after halftime — were treated to more twists than anyone could count.

No. 16 Washington prevailed 28-15 thanks to an 80-yard touchdown run from Myles Gaskin early in the fourth quarter. The Huskies followed with a two-point conversion.

Even on a night where nothing seemed sure or safe, that was enough to seal the Huskies’ victory.
