Coming off a road series split against University Athletic Association (UAA) opponent New York University, the Bears faced a busy five-game week at home.

The Bears swept the Judges on April 18 and 20, extending a season-high win streak to 12 consecutive games. With 12 games in the books against University Athletic Association (UAA) opponents — and an 11-1 record against them — this year’s team has a chance to claim WashU softball’s first outright UAA title since 2017. 

After losing three out of four games to their University Athletic Association (UAA) rivals The University of Chicago, the WashU baseball team needed to get back on track.

During a weekend on the road, the WashU women’s basketball team fell to Brandeis University 68-57 and No. 1 New York University 77-58 on Feb. 7 and 9. The Bears are now 4-5 in conference play and 13-7 overall. 

The No. 10 WashU men’s basketball team faced a challenging weekend in conference play, losing to Brandeis University and No. 3 New York University in back-to-back road losses on Feb. 7 and 9. Despite strong individual performances, the Bears struggled to keep pace with two of the conference’s top teams, dropping to 15-5 overall and 5-4 in University Athletic Association (UAA) play as the regular season enters its final stretch.

In a weekend full of conference play, the WashU women’s basketball team dominated against Brandeis University, defeating the Judges 74-50 on Jan. 31. However, the Bears lost 80-46 to the  reigning national champions, No. 1 New York University on Feb. 2.

After defeating Brandeis University 83-58 on Jan. 3, No. 6 WashU men’s basketball broke their five game winning streak on Sunday, losing 77-62 to the No. 5 New York University (NYU) on Feb. 2. The Bears are now 15-3 overall and 5-2 in University Athletic Association (UAA) play.

After starting the season with a record of 1-2 in University Athletic Association (UAA) play, which saw the Bears fall from No. 13 to unranked in Division III standings, the WashU women’s basketball team fought for two straight conference victories this past weekend. On Jan. 24, the Bears defeated the University of Rochester 86-76, and two days later, they traveled down to Atlanta, beating Emory University 67-56. WashU is now 3-2 in UAA play as they reach the halfway point of their two-month stretch of consecutive conference games.

Playing at home, and making their return to the WashU Field House after a pipe burst forced the team to play matches on the Sumers Recreation Center and Varsity Gym courts, the Bears were able to flip the script, defeating Brandeis University and No. 23 New York University on Sunday, Oct. 13, both in four sets.

The Washington University men’s soccer team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Brandeis University on Oct. 11 after conceding a goal in the 88th minute. The loss drops WashU to 0-2 in University Athletic Association (UAA) play, leaving them searching for their first conference win as they head back home.
