COLLEGES

The news is official: The University of Washington has decided not to release Lewis and Clark's Katelan Redmon from her women's basketball letter-of-intent. The Redmon family is going to appeal the ruling. You can find my thoughts here. The P-I has a feature on new UW coach Tia Jackson.

• The Gonzaga baseball team travels to Malibu today for a West Coast Conference playoff-deciding series with Pepperdine. If the Zags can win at least two of three, they insure a second-place finish in the conference and a berth in the WCC championship series. Anything less, and they will need help next week from the University of Portland. All three games, including today's, which starts at 3 p.m., can be heard on 790-AM.

• Guard Chris Matthews is leaving Washington State for St. Bonaventure in New York. You can find more on Glenn Kasses' blog.

• Despite getting the cold shoulder from the WCC, Seattle University is still planning to make the move to Division I sports.

• Both Washington State and Idaho are competing in the NCAA women's golf west regional. The Pac-10 track meet is this weekend in Stanford.
