The Utes avoided the sweep on Sunday afternoon with a 5-4 win against the Aztecs. JoJo Sharrar got the game winning single up the middle in the 9th inning in a game the Utes desperately needed to win. "This was a big win for us", Sharrar said. "We needed to come out of here with a win and we did just that."
The Utes lost close bouts with the Aztecs on Friday night and Saturday afternoon, but with the win on Sunday kept their conference championship hopes alive. The Utes sit in 4th place just 2 games behind TCU and New Mexico for the lead.
The Utes will play a Tuesday game against Southern Utah and then will have a crucial weekend series against in-state rival BYU. BYU is in 6th place in conference and are looking to move up in the standings. The series will start on Thursday night down in Provo, followed by a game Friday and a game Saturday to wrap up the series.
