BASEBALL: Consecutive doubles and a two-run homer by Washington offset BYU's seven-inning lead Thursday night as the Cougars lost to the Huskies, 5-1.

Kyle Conley's home run and doubles by Bradley Boyer and Troy Scott preceded a two-run homer by Ty Rasmussen in the five-run eighth inning. Those hits erased the 1-0 lead shutout Jordan Muir had going for the Cougars.

On Friday night, Kyle Conley hit a pair of home runs to help give 23-9 Washington a 12-4 victory over 14-20 BYU. Dan Vargas had a two-run homer for the Cougars.

MEN'S TENNIS: The Cougars (14-10) fell 4-0 to a tough New Mexico team on Friday. On Thursday, the Cougars pulled out a 4-3 win over San Diego State after freshmen Thomas Shubert, Daniel Hwang and A.J. Young won singles matches.

SOFTBALL: In an eight-inning ballgame at San Diego, the Cougars blanked San Diego State on Wednesday, 2-0. On Friday, BYU (27-4, 4-2) split a doubleheader against UNLV, as the Cougars won 11-5 before losing 5-1.
