Did you know Utah has a technical university, with about 20 paths of computer science study?
Did you know the Utah Tech Trailblazers reclassified as D1 in 2019, and joined the the Western Athletic Conference?
Did you know UTAH TECH anagrams to HATCHET U? Got you with that one.
In St. George, Utah Tech hosts the Trailblazer Classic, and beat Oregon 92-86 in a first-round game Tuesday.
It was a one-point game at 4:50, and with 30 seconds left, Oregon trailed by 3. The Ducks got two possessions, and as the saying goes, you play for 39 minutes to achieve that position.
Utah Tech was making a barely-acceptable 34.7% of their 3FG for the season, but shot 21-for-31 Tuesday, including 6-for-7 in the fourth quarter.
Oregon gets Oklahoma State Thursday at Utah Tech, in their last game before conference play begins against at Oregon St. As things stand, I’m expecting the Beavers to remain undefeated.
