From the Desk of Jon Haarlow: What a Coug Reads on a Thursday
There is no better way to spend a Thursday than with a full slate of Cougar sports, and Jon Haarlow is here to walk you through it. His latest dispatch is the kind of reading you do with a coffee in hand, checking the clock to make sure you don't miss kickoff. It's a reminder that the midweek grind doesn't have to be all spreadsheets and meetings. There's soccer to watch. The day starts with the pitch. Soccer lines up with San Diego State in an afternoon tilt, which is a nice early distraction before the evening settles in. If you have not watched a Thursday afternoon match from your desk, you are missing out on one of the great remote-work perks. Just keep the mute button handy. Haarlow gets it. He knows what it is like to be a thousand miles from Pullman, scanning for any scrap of Cougar news. He writes for the ones who still check the score at halftime and the ones who plan their weekends around volleyball. Speaking of which, volleyball hits the road for Boise before hosting Fresno State in the same week. That is a busy stretch, and they will need the crowd in Bohler to be loud when they get back. If you want the full rundown, the BECU podcast with Foss and Buren is a good companion piece. It ties the week together nicely. For now, take Haarlow's word for it. Thursday is a good day to be a Coug.
