Penn State starts strong, holds on to beat Washington 28-25

Penn State's wide receiver room reported healthy for their Saturday victory over Washington, resulting in a 28-25 triumph at Husky Stadium. Quarterback Rocco Becht contributed 240 yards and two first-half touchdowns, handing the ball off to Chase Sowell and Zay Robinson, both initially listed as questionable players. The Lions took an early lead and maintained it until the final moments.

Becht's fourth-and-1 conversion in the red zone sealed the win. Chase Sowell led the scoring with four catches for 125 yards, including a crucial 45-yard touchdown. Zay Robinson added a 24-yard touchdown catch. Washington managed a late 6-yard touchdown to Dezmen Roebuck, closing the gap to 28-25, but Penn State's defense held firm.

Carson Hansen rushed for 119 yards, including a 36-yard touchdown in the first quarter and a pivotal 36-yard run to preserve the drive. Despite Washington's recent struggles, this marks their third consecutive home loss since 2021.
