BASEBALL: Dan Christensen tossed a complete game, five-hitter in Utah Valley's 4-1 win over BYU as the neighboring schools met at the River City Classic in Sacramento on Friday.

WOMEN'S BASKETBALL: Utah Valley made a late push but it was too little too late as 33 turnovers did in the Wolverines in a 71-64 loss to Texas-Pan American at the Division I Independent Championships in Edinburg, Texas. On Friday, Utah Valley scored just 23 points over the final 28 minutes and lost 76-53 to CSU Bakersfield.
