SALT LAKE CITY — As the Washington State players hugged their families goodbye on their way to the busses after their 33-25 win over Utah, senior quarterback Luke Falk waved at his mother.
“Bye, mom,” he called toward Analee Anderson Falk, then raised his arm and made a circling motion with his index finger.
“Full circle,” Falk said, grinning in his mom’s direction as she waved goodbye and blew him a kiss.
Full circle, indeed.
The Cinderella story of the Utah-born walk-on quarterback who’s helped orchestrate WSU’s renaissance continued in Salt Lake City on Saturday afternoon.
