UW: Tuitama ouduels Locker

SEATTLE – As well as University of Washington quarterback Jake Locker played on Saturday, with season bests of 336 passing yards and 157 rushing yards to go with four passing/rushing touchdowns, his Arizona counterpart was equally productive.

And Arizona’s Willie Tuitama was able to walk off the field smiling, after guiding the Wildcats to a remarkable 48-41 comeback victory at Husky Stadium.

Tuitama, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound junior, was virtually unstoppable through the air. Arizona managed just 25 rushing yards and yet still totaled 535 yards of offense, with 510 coming via Tuitama’s talented right arm. He was 38 for 51 with five touchdowns and one interception.
