Basketball: Utah club team goes 5-1 at SoCal Tourney
The Utah Pump-N-Run Red club team featuring several of the state's top high school basketball players was eliminated 61-55 by a team called High Intensity on Wednesday night at the Best of Summer club basketball tournament in Southern California.

P&R Red went 5-1 in the tournament, beating the Bay Area (Calif.) Warriors 67-62 earlier Wednesday in bracket play before falling to High Intensity in the Round of 16. The team concluded its two-week run with a 9-2 record, having started the stretch at a tournament in Las Vegas last week.

Utah Pump-N-Run White, another 17-under team, went 0-4 in the tournament and "kind of ran out of gas" because it had just seven players, according to P&R Red coach Todd Phillips.

The Utah Pump-N-Run 16-under team went 3-2 in its division and made it the Sweet 16, but was eliminated Wednesday night by the Heroes of Dallas.
