The Fewing Cup is a traveling trophy awarded to the winner of the annual men's college soccer match between Seattle University and the University of Washington. Washington leads the all-time series, 49–9–6. The cup was first awarded in 2016.[1]

In the event of a draw, the cup remains in the possession of the school holding it prior to the match. The cup is presented to the winning team by the Washington Athletic Club and the 101 Club.[2] In 2023, the cup was renamed the "Fewing Cup" after retiring Seattle U coach and UW soccer alumnus Pete Fewing.[3]

The rivalry has seen more media attention ever since Seattle U has reinstated its men's soccer program at the NCAA Division I level and has been competitive in the NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Tournament.[4] The most recent matchup between the teams was in the first round of the 2024 NCAA Division I men's soccer tournament. Neither team scored, and after two overtime periods, Washington advanced to the next round on penalty kicks.[5]
