Game Notes
Despite a turbulent season that has featured a 10 game losing streak, a star player with appendicitis, and a player being suspended indefinitely and ultimately out of the program due to a violation of team rules the Runnin’ Utes have never lost their fight. The Utes showed their resilience on Thursday night as they came from behind to beat Stanford for Utah’s first road win since February 2021. It was a win that could provide a significant confidence boost for the remainder of the season as well as into the offseason. Cal has been similar to Utah in that despite their poor record (11-16 overall and 4-12 in conference play) they have not stopped fighting as they picked up an impressive road win at Oregon Thursday night as they beat the Ducks 78-64 in a win that almost certainly has crushed the Duck’s chances of an NCAA Tournament berth.
