reatest Fans, We hope that you are staying healthy and enjoyed your summer with all the beautiful Pacific Northwest has to offer. It’s hard to believe we are already flipping our calendars to September and the start of another year for Husky Athletics - this is truly going to be a special one for our department and university. I can’t wait for Coach Lake to have his first opportunity at a full season. It’s been such an exciting training camp and it’s been so fun to open up several practices to each of you. The roster is filled with veterans who are ready to put their stamp on already impressive careers. We have a strong home schedule after we make our trip to Michigan for a showdown with one of college football’s perennial powers. Our home slate is highlighted by visits from rivals Oregon and Washington State and we are going to need each of you to give us a home-field advantage. We have all been challenged in new ways over the course of the last year and a half. This has forced us to think differently, change how we operate and appreciate what we have. This couldn’t be truer of you, Husky Nation. Our inability to gather has left a gaping hole in our department. What we

do, and the experiences we provide for our students isn’t possible without your support. We know that we remain in a fluid situation this fall and understand that things could change at a moment’s notice. As has been our priority throughout the pandemic, we will provide real-time updates to each of you and continue to rely on state, county, conference and university officials to make any necessary COVID-related decisions for our events on campus. We can’t wait for September 4 and The Return to the Greatest Setting. See you there! Go Dawgs!
