Brothers Nate and Jaxon Bell add dynamism to Eastern Washington's offense, special teams: 'We're super blessed' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Aaron Best learned years ago that one brother is not necessarily like the next, and that maybe the next doesn’t want to be defined or known solely by kinship. He learned that lesson from Ketner Kupp. “I’ll never forget this,” Best, the Eastern Washington head football coach, said on Tuesday. “Ketner said, ‘I’ve always been introduced as Ketner, Cooper’s brother.’ ” Ketner Kupp became a team captain for the Eagles in 2018, two years after Cooper Kupp graduated and went on to star in the NFL. They
Eastern Washington mired in another slow start after five games played (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The story around the Eastern Washington football team at this point in the 2025 season was almost the same as it was at this point in 2024. It ’s also about the same as 2023 and even 2022. And sure enough, that’s the story again with this year’s Eagles, who are 1-4 overall and 0-2 in Big Sky Conference play. “We’ve got to find the first one before we talk about the second one,” EWU head coach Aaron Best said Tuesday. “Then if we start doing that one at a time we can have that conversation (about

This week, after the judge granted an injunction to allow Cook to play out the final seas

In consecutive weeks, Eastern Washington offensive linemen have talked about how the Eagles’ offense has yet to really take charge along the line of scrimmage. This week, as the Eagles prepared to play Cal Poly, it was redshirt sophomore left guard Mark Johnson. “Being mean and physical, taking the fight to them, and giving (quarterback) Nate (Bell) time,” Johnson said of what Eastern needs to do on Saturday. “And then in the run game, (we’ve got to get) bigger holes. There’s definitely a lot mo
EWU kicker Soren McKee 'put one foot in front of the other' on his way to team captain status (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On the turf of the Kibbie Dome in Moscow, Idaho, four years ago, Soren McKee warmed up, not knowing whether the fifth of November would prove to be a day for him to remember. “It was kind of funny,” McKee said this week. “I didn’t know I was going to be given an opportunity until about five minutes before kickoff.” He was told that Wyatt Hawkins would get the first kick but that he would get the second. And that’s exactly what happened: Hawkins made a 35-yard field goal in the first quarter, and
