SALT LAKE CITY — BYU forward Yoeli Childs received a baseline pass from TJ Haws, took one dribble, soared high in the air and hammered down a jaw-dropping dunk over, and between, two Utah defenders.
That play evoked the biggest cheer of the night from fans at Vivint Arena — from Cougar fans, at least — and it was Childs’ signature play in a memorable performance against the Utes.
Childs finished with 31 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to lead BYU to a 74-59 victory over the Utes in a Saturday matinee edition of the rivalry game witnessed by a crowd of 10,678.
