Washington State’s class of 2026 is continuing to grow.
The Cougars have added three-star athlete Landon Kalsbeck, who announced his commitment on Monday morning, giving his new program their sixth member of the class. A native of the Denver area, Kalsbeck turned down offers from Utah State, Colorado State, Fresno State, Hawaii and a handful of others.

The No. 15 prospect in Colorado and No. 101 athlete in the country , according to 247 Sports, Kalsbeck has fielded 20 offers in total. In addition to his official visit to Pullman, which he took this past weekend, Kalsbeck also scheduled visits to Fresno State and Utah State.
