Baseball: BYU will meet Utah MWC Tourney opener
BYU's first-round opponent in the 2009 Mountain West Conference baseball tournament will be none other than the University of Utah.
The Utes and Cougars will meet for the 308th time on Tuesday in Fort Worth, Texas , at 4 p.m. MDT.
While BYU hasn't played a conference game in a week, it finished in third place in the conference standings after Saturday's league games were in the books. Utah finished as the No. 6 seed.
Last year, Utah beat BYU 9-3 in a MWC tournament opener.
The Cougars beat the Utes in five of six regular-season games this year, losing only a 15-13 decision in Provo.
