WBB || FINAL Utah 45 | Baylor 61 It just wasn't Utah's night as the team shot 26% from the floor and had 14 turnovers.

WBB || MTO | 4Q | 4:49 Utah 39 | Baylor 53 Utah has simply been out of sync tonight in all facets of the game. The team is currently shooting 25% from the field and has only made three 3-pointers.

We went from no whistles blown in the first half to a ticky-tack type of whistle fest in the second.

WBB || END OF 3RD Q: Utah 37 | Baylor 49 Bit of a disjointed quarter, but Utah fighting a bit more. Petersen's frustration got the refs and players all more engaged.

Ever since Gavin Petersen had a heated chat with the refs, suddenly the Utes have been at the line on 3 straight possessions. Hmm ...

Lani White taking Utah's first free throws of the game with 3:43 left in the third quarter.

Gavin Petersen is losing his mind (probably rightfully) with the refs. Utah isn't getting any whistles tonight against a physical Baylor team. It's more than just the whistles, but it's not helping Utah's cause.

WBB || HALFTIME Utah 24 | Baylor 35 Utah stayed cold, turned the ball over, and Baylor went on a 10-0 run to pull away to closeout the half. Utah gonna need a much better effort in the second half.

WBB || MTO | 2Q | 4:39 Utah 22 | Baylor 24 Both teams have come to a halt on scoring. Utah is 1 of their last 9attempts, while Baylor has gone 4:51 without scoring.

The refs have decided to swallow their whistles on both ends of the floor tonight

WBB || END OF 1ST Q: Utah 18 | Baylor 21 Utah played a little out of sync on both sides of the ball but has settled in a bit. Trying to draw some fouls, but not always taking the best looks there to draw a foul.

WBB || MTO | 1Q | 4:24 Utah 11 | Baylor 14 Utah shooting 56% tonight against Baylor, but the visitors a little better at 63%. The defense could be better from Utah, but settling in.

Carly Dockendorf on why Avery Neff got docked on her beam score for the leap series connection.

Your “Best of Utah” champions …

FINAL: Utah the "Best of Utah" again Utah: 197.300 Utah State: 195.825 BYU: 195.725 Southern Utah: 195.675 Makenna Smith: 9.775 Abbi Ryssman: 9.925 Ana Padurariu: 9.925 Ella Zirbes: 9.950 Bailey Stroud: 9.925 Avery Neff: 9.900

What's really wow is how one judge gave a 9.850 on that one. The other was a 9.950.

Avery. Neff. Wow.

Ella Zirbes with quite the bounce-back night. She's been on the money all night and shows why she's in the all-around. She finishes with a 9.950

Ana Padurariu really showcasing her talent this season. Beautiful bars routine that ends with a stick. She had a little leg separation, but not much more to fault.

Abbi Ryssman just had her best time on bars in her short collegiate career. She ends it with a stick.

Going into the final rotation of the night, Utah continues to build upon its lead Utah: 147.675 Utah State: 146.800 BYU: 146.725 Southern Utah: 146.625 Clara Raposo: 9.200 Ella Zirbes: 9.875 Ashley Glynn: 9.850 Makenna Smith: 9.950 Zoe Johnson: 9.800 Avery Neff: 9.900

Not as high as Saturday's 49.600, but the Red Rocks with a solid 49.375 on vault. Not as many sticks and just a few hops, but good performance all around.

Nope, but she gets a 9.950

Makenna Smith with the perfect stick on vault. Will the judges give her a 10?

In the leadoff spot on vault, Clara Raposo has a little too much momentum and falls forward to her hands.

Utah starting to pull away from the competition after a good floor score. Utah: 98.300 BYU: 97.975 Utah State: 97.900 Southern Utah: 97.650 Ashley Glynn: 9.275 Avery Neff: 9.875 Ella Zirbes: 9.925 Zoe Johnson: 9.700 Sarah Krump: 9.825 Makenna Smith: 9.900

Makenna Smith, the master of energy and excitement on floor. Oh, she's really good at the gymnastics, too.

Utah picks up a running back commitment from the portal — a former player at San Jose State

Avery Neff barely stays inbounds on her final pass. It was quite the fight to stay in, but she did. Everything else really well done.

Ashley Glynn with a stumble on her first tumbling pass on floor in the leadoff position. She recovers nicely on her last pass.

After the first rotation, the Red Rocks hold a slim lead on the competition Utah: 49.075 BYU: 49.000 Southern Utah: 48.900 Utah State: 48.900 Elizabeth Gantner: 9.525 Makenna Smith: 9.850 Abbi Ryssman: 9.900 Ana Padurariu: 9.875 Camie Winger: 9.800 Avery Neff: 9.650

The judges conferenced and both dropping Avery's start value to a 9.7, so she ends with a 9.650. 🤷‍♂️

9.85 & 9.60 scores for Avery. One judge had a 9.7 SV, which makes zero sense. They're conferencing.

And Avery Neff closes out beam with a great routine and a stick. Utah bounces back and will have a much more normal score today.

Camie Winger continues the momentum but has a small balance check after her acro series, but finishes the routine off with a stick.

Ana Padurariu with a little balance check on her leap, but she also gets a stick to help the Utes.

After falling off the beam on Saturday, Abbi Ryssman bounces back with a great beam routine that ends with a stick. Really well done from the freshman.

Makenna Smith with a great routine in the 2nd spot on beam. No noticeable issues and gets a stick at the end.

Elizabeth Gantner starts off with a major balance check and almost falls off the beam, but holds on. She also has a little side-step on the dismount.

The Red Rocks back in action as part of the "Best of Utah" meet. The team will start on beam again, so same order as Saturday.

The fans matter for Utah basketball. It's not the whole story, but it's a big part the team has been missing for quite a while. www.ksl.com/article/5143...

AJ Dybantsa on the rivalry game: "Boy, that was crazy. That was super hostile. ... That was like a welcome to the Big 12 moment for me."

MTO | 2H | 7:58 Utah 68 | BYU 73 Utah makes a bit of a run and cuts into the double-digit deficit. Terrence Brown with 19 points and Don McHenry with 17 points.

This is the most aggressive I think we've seen James Okonkwo this season. He's mixing it up and working hard to get everything around him.

Starters for the Runnin' Utes against in-state rival BYU at the Huntsman Center: 2 | G | Terrence Brown 3 | G | Don McHenry 0 | F | Seydou Traore 8 | F | Keanu Dawes 32 | F | James Okonkwo

Today's meet was one the Red Rocks don't want to remember, but there were some positives, too. The biggest being Avery Neff's 10.0 on vault, and the team's overall performance on the event. www.ksl.com/article/5143...
