Hilmar High graduate Nate Costa has gotten plenty of time to reflect on his start against UCLA last weekend while preparing for his next start, this one against Pac-10 foe Washington on Oct. 24.
Against the Bruins, he did a decent job by passing 9-for-17 for 82 yards, one touchdown and one interception in place of injured quarterback Jeremiah Masoli in a 24-10 win. Oregon is now 5-1 overall and ranked 13th in the Associated Press top 25 poll.
