Husky Hoops Need to Know: Cardinal Rules

If you read this column weekly, you will recall that last week’s edition revolved primarily around a dissection of UCLA’s fall from grace. I’m not a superstitious person, so I’ll just chalk it up to bad timing. Shortly after that post, the Dawgs pooped the proverbial bed against the Bruins with an ignominious 66-64 home loss to open conference play. The Huskies committed fewer turnovers in the game and 15 more free throws. Alas, UCLA gathered in 22 offensive boards and made an uncharacteristic 10 threes. Jake Kyman, who had never scored in double figures in his career, repeatedly found holes in the UW zone and scored 21 points on 7/12 shooting from outside.
