Junior Lori Red led the Utes with 18 points. Red was seven of eight from the field and a perfect two for two from behind the arc. She was also perfect from the free-throw line, making two of two.

The Utes shot for 48 percent from the field in the first half, making 14 of 29. They shot 39 percent in the second half (11 of 28) and 43 percent for the game.
For the NWBL, Kina Brown racked up 19 points and led the team with nine rebounds. Brown was seven of eleven from the field and five of seven from the free-throw line. Loyola Moore posted 16 points and grabbed six rebounds, while Kim McGuire added 10 points. The NWBL shot 38 percent from the field (11 of 29) in the first half, 47 percent (14 of 30) in the second half and 42 percent in the game.
"I was pleased with tonight's win, we used 14 people and tried some different things. The personnel decisions will tighten up a lot once we get underway and there's no way we'll be using 14 kids. When you do that, you have a lot of different combinations that don't click," says Elliott.
