By Paige Fieldsted, Staff WriterNo. 1 BYU Cougars (24-6 overall, 12-4 MWC)BYU was one of three teams to share the regular season Mountain West Conference title. This is the third year in a row BYU has...

Last season, the Runnin' Utes lost assistant coaches Marty Wilson and Chris Jones. The two left to work their way toward careers at head coaching positions, which left head coach Jim Boylen with a void to fill.

It had been a full two weeks since the Red Rocks last performed, but you couldn't tell that from the way the U gymnastics team performed Friday night.

Utah was plagued by cold-shooting all afternoon, as they only converted on 28.6 percent of their field goal attempts en route to the 53-47 loss. Utah (20-9, 13-3 MWC) will share the regular season title with San Diego State, who beat UNLV Saturday to earn a piece of the Mountain West Conference title.

Utah claimed a portion of the Mountain West Conference championship with their 68-49 victory over TCU Saturday afternoon at the Huntsman Center.

In his final game in the Huntsman Center, senior forward Shaun Green led all scorers with 20 points, including six 3-pointers in the Utes' 68-49 victory over TCU on Saturday. With the win, Utah captured a share of the Mountain West Conference title for the first time in four years.

When you're tied for first place in the conference but only have the fourth best attendance average at 9,656 (New Mexico is first at 14,348, UNLV is second at 13,598 and BYU is third at 12,762) you need all the help you can get.

And for the Runnin' Utes, ending a two-game skid and earning a high seed in the Mountain West Conference tournament seems like a perfect combination on the day the Utah program waves goodbye to four irreplaceable seniors.

The Utes will attempt to win the MWC title outright this Saturday as they take on the TCU Horned Frogs in Fort Worth, Texas.

The Utes have seen a drastic change in their batting since the beginning of the season and have lost nine of their last 10 games because of their lack of confidence at the plate.
