SEATTLE — Jonah Coleman rushed for a career-high five touchdowns as Washington beat UC Davis 70-10 on Saturday night.
Coleman tied the modern program record set by Corey Dillon (1996 vs. UCLA) and Hugh McElhenny (1950 vs. Washington State) on a 5-yard rushing touchdown early in the third quarter. Ervin Daily set the school's all-time mark with seven rushing touchdowns against Whitman in 1919.
“It hasn’t really hit me yet, but I just want to shout out my o-line," Coleman said. "I appreciate them boys, and they make me look good.”
Coleman, who has rushed for three touchdowns in a game twice previously in his collegiate career, bested that total before halftime. He also finished the evening with his seventh career 100-yard rushing game at Washington. Coleman had 15 carries for 111 yards.
