LAS VEGAS - The Utah baseball team swept UNLV in a three-game series over the weekend with a final 11-5 victory today. The Utes also defeated the Rebels 5-2 and 10-9. The series boosts Utah to a 11-14 season record with a 4-2 conference mark.

In the final game of the Utah-UNLV showdown was played through 7.1 innings due to inclement weather. At the finish of the game, Utah led 15-5, but due to NCAA regulation only full innings are counted. The Utes led 11-5 going into the top of the seventh inning and thus maintained their victory.

Utah jumped out to the lead early in the game scoring two runs on a double by freshman Donnie Saba and a sacrifice fly by Sam Swenson. UNLV rallied back on a three-run homer by Adam Manley. Utah didn't let up, scoring three runs on a home run by Jed Chrisman, his fifth of the season. The Utes and the Rebels both posted one run in the fourth inning, but Utah sealed their victory in the bottom of the fifth scoring four runs on four hits.

First baseman Nate Weese and third baseman Mike Goff led the Ute batting brigade. Both athletes hit 3-for-4 in the game. Weese scored two runs and one RBI and Goff scored one run with two RBI. He also hit his fourth double of the season.

David Ebright picked up the win for Utah, bringing his season tally to 3-5. The junior pitched the first 3.1 innings of the game facing 17 batters.

The Utes return to action against Mesa State in a double header March 21 at 12:00 p.m. Against Mesa State earlier in the season, Utah won one game (19-4) and dropped two (24-10, 6-3).
