- We now know that the other two teams invited to the the Penn State Tournament are Eastern Illinois and Duquesne. At the end of last season, the RPI for Eastern Illinois was 275; for Duquesne it was 133.
- Notice how many conference matches are on Wednesdays and Sundays. The Wednesday match against UCLA (September 26) and the Thursday contest at Stanford (November 8) are likely to be televised, possibly nationally.
- Teams have long complained about having to play in Pullman one night, then Seattle the next. This schedule seems to address that concern by adding an extra day in between, with similar consideration given for travel between Salt Lake City and Boulder.
What do you think about the Huskies' lineup?
