SEATTLE (AP) Washington coach Chris Petersen has announced that wide receivers coach Brent Pease will not be retained for next season and will not coach for the Huskies in their upcoming bowl game.

Petersen made the announcement Friday. Petersen said a ''fresh start with the position group'' was needed moving forward.
