Looks similar to mines! Any luck identifying.
My guess would be a wolf spider in the genus Tigrosa – because of its high head and the stripe on its back and the pattern on its legs – It’s hard to be sure though. I would imagine that it fell into the sink on it’s nocturnal hunting trip and couldn’t get out again. They are generally not aggressive to humans – but If you rescue it be careful it could be agitated after being trapped. – https://bugguide.net/node/view/750194/bgpage
