SPORTSWATCH LOGGERS END 20-GAME LOSING STREAK The Puget Sound football team’s much-maligned defense forced five turnovers to help earn a 42-33 win at Whittier College on Sept. 21, ending the Loggers’ 20-game losing streak. Jacob Wuesthoff led the Loggers’ defense with 17 tackles while adding an interception, while cornerback Connor Savage added an interception and a fumble recovery. The Loggers also tallied 14 tackles for loss, as Mike Raub came up with 4.5 tackles for loss and two sacks. Braden Foley led the Loggers’ offense, going 16-for31 for 233 yards and three touchdowns. He got UPS on the board in the first quarter, tying the game 7-7 on a three-yard touchdown run. He connected with Josh Gilbert – who led the Loggers with four catches for 63 yards – on a three-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter, and Kupono Park gave UPS a 21-7 lead at the break with the first of his two touchdown runs. Foley connected with Bryson Calma on a 19-yard touchdown pass in

the third quarter to make it 28-14, and hit Peter Bell for a 15-yard score late in the fourth to make it 42-25.

Jeff Walton boomed a 74-yard punt in the fourth quarter, with the Loggers nursing a slim 28-25 lead, as part of his strong performance – featuring three punts inside the opponents’ 20-yard line – to earn the Special Teams Player of the Week.
