Cougs stack three more wins on day four of regional play

Three wins in one day. That's how you take a regional. The Cougs stacked another three on day four, and at this point, you stop counting and start enjoying the run. The doubles squad already owns the Northwest Regionals, no qualifiers needed, as we wrote earlier, and the rest of the team is catching up fast. It's the kind of depth Pullman built on, and it's showing. You don't get days like this without everyone pulling their weight. The singles are sharp. The doubles are clinical. And the whole operation looks like a team that has been here before, even if the roster is young. That matters. We've been covering some rough patches this season, quarterback changes and losses that stung, so it's good to see the racket sports side of things reminding everyone what Cougs do best. If you missed our story on the doubles squad locking in their spot without qualifiers, go find it. It pairs well with this run. For now, it's simple: keep stacking. Keep showing up. Keep making Pullman proud. Go Cougs.

Coug doubles squad owns the Northwest Regionals, no qualifiers needed

The Cougar doubles squad rolled through the ITA Northwest Regionals without needing a single qualifier. That is not a typo. That is a statement. You don't stumble into that kind of weekend. You earn it. And this group did, match after match, leaving no doubt who the best team in the region was. No play-in rounds. No scrambling for a spot. Just straight-up owning the bracket from the first serve. This follows a pattern we have seen all fall. The Cougs gave Colorado State everything they could handle, just not a win earlier this season, and that fight carried over. They snuck into a tie for second out in Tacoma, and that'll play. But this regional title is different. It is clean. It is decisive. It is the kind of result that makes you wonder what happens when they get a full spring schedule in front of them. Pullman does not always get the headlines in tennis. That is fine. The Cougs do not need them. They just need a court, a ball, and a chance to prove it. They proved it this weekend. Go Cougs.
