Color your WSU

December 17, 2018 from WSU News

Try your hand at adult coloring with this image by Seattle artist and WSU alum Tarah Luke.

With the fall semester complete and the holiday break looming, why not try your hand at coloring your own Bryan Hall?

This free downloadable coloring page was created by Seattle artist and 2005 WSU grad Tarah Luke for Washington State Magazine.

Send your completed artwork to social.media@wsu.edu to possibly be featured in a @WSUPullman Facebook Album. Be sure to include your name and a short caption about your design.

Luke, who found her niche in the adult coloring book industry, was profiled in the magazine’s Summer 2016 issue and drew this abstract version of the iconic clock tower for her fellow Cougars and Cougs at heart.

WSU Football Recruiting

Recruiting: OL Ma’ake Fifita commits to WSU

He’s a light body with a projectable frame.

By Jeff Nusser Coug Center Dec 16, 2018, 5:45pm PST

The Washington State Cougars secured a surprise offensive line commitment on Sunday night when the high school coach of Ma’ake Fifita confirmed to Cougfan.com that his player had accepted a scholarship offer from WSU.

Fifita, from Glacier Peak High School in Snohomish, doesn’t yet have a composite rating, but 247Sports rated him a low-3-star recruit when it evaluated him as a defensive end. According to Cougfan, he also possessed an offer from the Air Force Falcons, with the California Golden Bears and BYU Cougars sniffing around.

Apparently, Fifita committed weeks ago, but he isn’t on social media, so it was never revealed.

Fifita is exceptionally light for an offensive line recruit — reportedly 6-foot-5 and just 250 pounds — and his commitment underscores what seems to be a clear shift in emphasis under offensive line coach Mason Miller toward taller guys with projectable frames:

Patrick Utschinski (6-7/280)

Hunter Hill (6-6/275)

Konner Gomness (6-4/270)

Only juco commit Dontae Powell will enroll at more than 300 pounds.
