SEATTLE (AP) — Washington has named Michael Penix Jr. as its starting quarterback for the season opener against Kent State.

New Washington coach Kalen DeBoer says he met with all three quarterbacks to inform them of the decision. Penix had an injury-filled career at Indiana before deciding to transfer after last season.
