Junior receiver Branden Ganashamoorthy dazzles in WSU fall camp practice
Junior wideout Branden Ganashamoorthy delivered a standout performance on the third day of Washington State's fall camp, catching multiple deep passes.
On the third day of Washington State's fall camp, junior wide receiver Branden Ganashamoorthy emerged as the practice's highlight, securing a one-handed long touchdown and two additional scores in 7-on-7 drills. Coach Kirby Moore highlighted Ganashamoorthy's physical transformation and credited offseason work with strength coach Malcolm Hardmon for the improvement. The performance coincided with quarterbacks Caden Pinnick and Owen Eshelman finally connecting on deep throws after earlier struggles.
Ganashamoorthy, who logged only ten catches in his first two seasons, may be positioning himself for a more prominent role among the Cougars' receivers. The practice also featured a long touchdown to Tony Freeman and noted the absence of offensive lineman Max McCree due to illness. Overall, the day suggested both individual growth for Ganashamoorthy and broader offensive progress for the team.
Why it matters
The breakout shows Ganashamoorthy could become a key target for Washington State's offense this season.
