PROVO — BYU's 9-3 win over Utah Valley on Tuesday went just as Cougar coach Mike Littlewood planned, sort of.

Littlewood used seven pitchers, with none of those pitchers seeing more than two innings, regardless of performance. That was the plan heading in, with the pitchers used largely providing the type of performance that was expected.

Blake Inouye and Bo Burrup started things off brilliantly, each pitching two innings of no-hit ball, with Kenny Saenz, Drew Zimmerman and Jake Suddereth closing out the the final three and 1/3 innings, allowing just one Wolverine baserunner on a bases-on-balls.
