Husky running back Myles Gaskin surpasses 1,000 yards for third straight season

He’s just the third UW back to rush for 1,000 yards three times, joining Napoleon Kaufman (1992-94) and Chris Polk (2009-11).

STANFORD, Calif. — Washington junior running back Myles Gaskin eclipsed the 1,000-yard rushing mark for the third consecutive season in the Huskies’ game at Stanford late Friday.
