Washington won that year's conference championship with a perfect 10–0 record in Brinker's final season.

In the 1959 season, the Huskies won the North Division title outright under coach Dale Parker.

[2] On July 1, 1959, the PCC dissolved following a scandal involving illegal payments to football players at several of the conference's schools.

[9] In reaction, five former PCC members, including Washington, formed the Athletic Association of Western Universities (AAWU), which began play in the 1959–1960 school year.

[2][11] In 1981, head coach Bob MacDonald, who had held the position since prior to the 1977 season, led the team to its first division title since 1959.

[12] In 1992, MacDonald's final season, the Huskies qualified for their second NCAA tournament with a 39–21 record and North Division title.

[14][15] In 1993, Knutson's first season, the team won the Pac-10 North and had a 39-19 overall record but did not receive an at-large bid to the NCAA tournament.

[2][16] Prior to the 1998 season, the program opened Husky Ballpark, a newly built on-campus home venue that replaced Graves Field.

[17] In the three seasons from 1999 to 2001, the program finished with a conference winning percentage of .500 or worse and did not qualify for the NCAA tournament.

[13] Future Major League Baseball players on the 2004 team included Tim Lincecum and Brent Lillibridge.

[20] He was replaced by Indiana State head coach Lindsay Meggs, who played college ball at UCLA.

At the Oxford Regional, Washington went 2–2, defeating three-seed Georgia Tech twice and losing to host Ole Miss twice, both games by one run.

[22][23][24] Although a 1931 source refers to the team's home venue simply as the "Husky ball lot," sources as early as 1936 refer to the program's home venue as Graves Field, named for Tubby Graves, the program's head coach from 1923 to 1946.

[2][7][25][26] The field was located directly north of Hec Ed Pavilion and east of the current Graves Hall.

[29][30] With the construction of the Intramural Activities Building in the late 1960s, a new baseball field was built at the northeast corner of the UW campus.

Also oriented northeast with natural grass, its center field fence was near the intersection of NE 45th Street and Union Bay Place (now Mary Gates Memorial Avenue).

Ground was broken in 1997 and the $4.75 million Husky Ballpark hosted its first regular season game in late February 1998.

The stadium opened in 1938 and was a major league venue for one season, the home field of the Seattle Pilots in 1969.

The Huskies played early season tournaments and occasional home games in the Kingdome, which was demolished in March 2000.
