The Huskies were 22–9 overall in the regular season and 13–5 in conference play, co-champions with USC. There was no conference tournament this season; it debuted two years later.

Washington was seeded fifth in the West regional of the 64-team NCAA tournament, but was upset by Kentucky in the first round in Salt Lake City. The Wildcats defeated fourth-seed UNLV and advanced to the Sweet Sixteen, where they fell to St. John's, the top seed in the West.

Harshman, age 67, retired at the end of the season. Andy Russo, the head coach at Louisiana Tech, was hired in early April.
