UCLA’s overall GSR of 86% stands two percentage points higher than the national average of 84%. Our football team compiled the second-highest GSR among Pac-12 schools with 88% (the national average for FBS schools is 74%).

  • Hatchet History
    Hatchet History History of the Hatchet Nickname Using the name “Hatchets” has its beginnings back in the 1920’s. Washington’s athletic tradition began in 1896 with the organization of a football team. Basketball followed in 1906. The football team had adopted “old gold and black” as their colors and they became the colors of the school. Washington High School’s athletic teams were simply known as the “Old Gold and Black”. A remnant of that era can be heard in part of the school song, “for the Old Gold and Black on high, sing Washington’s praises to the sky.” When, in 1911, Washington dropped football due to the death of a player. Basketball became the main sport at Washington High School (football would be re-instated as a varsity sport in 1935). During the 1920’s Washington had several successful basketball teams. Coach Harry Hunter led Washington to the old 16-team state finals in 1925. The dominant player of those teams was James (Bud) Gill. Gill’s father owned Gill’s Funeral Home and donated the funeral home’s cars to transport the team to out of town games. Bud Gill’s nickname (because of his father’s occupation) was “Undertaker”. Because of the use of the funeral home’s automobiles and Gill’s nickname, the team, and many people in the community, began to call themselves the “Undertakers”. To some of the more “gentile” people in the community a high school team with the name “Undertakers” did not seem appropriate. There was some pressure to find a more appropriate, or at least acceptable, nickname.
