Cougar Football Spring Practice Recap Day 10 – WSU Athletics

"In the team session, quarterback Connor Halliday operated the first series. The defense received a “sack” from defensive end Lyman Faoliu but Halliday answered with a long touchdown pass to wide receiver Dominique Williams. The defense came right back with a “sack” from linebackerKache Palacio. A couple plays later saw running back Teondray Caldwell bust through the line for a 10-yard rush."
