The dust has settled from the end of the NFL Draft over the weekend.

The Seahawks followed their 16th-overall pick of defensive lineman Byron Murphy II with UConn offensive guard Christian Haynes in the third round.

Seattle also drafted a tight end, cornerback and another offensive lineman to fill out their draft board.

Meanwhile, former UW Huskies receiver Ja’Lynn Polk went 37th overall to the Patriots in the second round. 

Offensive tackle Roger Rosengarten and defensive edge Bralen Trice went in rounds two and three, respectively, as the fifth and sixth Huskies taken in this year’s draft.

 

The Mariners are hosting the MLB-best Atlanta Braves tonight after winning their fourth straight series over the weekend.

Seattle won their first two games against Arizona on Friday and Saturday, combining for a 9-2 advantage.

George Kirby struck out a career-high 12 batters in seven innings of shutout ball in the second game.

But the M’s fell to the Diamondbacks 3-2 on Sunday in a game where they only managed to get on base five times.

The Mariners are hosting the Atlanta Braves tonight, who own the best record in the majors at 19-7 and have won 11 of their last 13 games.

Bryce Miller is on the mound for the M’s as he looks to get his fourth win of the season.

Coverage begins at 5:30 and first pitch is at 6:40 on KPUG.

 

Dave Hakstol is out as head coach of the Seattle Kraken.

The team announced today that Hakstol will not return after three seasons in Seattle.

He went 107-112-27 with the Kraken as the first coach of the young franchise.

Hakstol helped take them within one game of the Western Conference Finals last season and was named as a finalist for the NHL’s Coach of the Year Award.

Last season’s success also earned him a two-year contract extension.

But this season’s team finished 19 points worse than last year’s record and was eliminated from the playoffs by early April.

The club also announced that assistant coach Paul McFarland would not return next season either.

 

The Sounders’ struggles continued over the weekend in a 2-1 loss to D.C United.

D.C. scored both of their goals within a two-minute span in Saturday’s win.

Seattle goalkeeper Stefan Frie left less than half an hour into the game because of a red card.

The Sounders have gone winless in their last three games and have just one goal scored in that span.

Seattle Reign FC didn’t fare much better, falling to the North Carolina Courage 1-0 on Saturday.
