Utah Valley (13-4, 4-0) at California Baptist (10-7, 2-2) – 10:00 PM ET (ESPN+)
Tonight’s UTR Game of the Day heads to the Inland Empire where the Lancers of California Baptist host the Utah Valley Wolverines. It has been a banner year for UVU; they started off league play with home wins against Sam Houston and Beehive rival Utah Tech. They started off their current 3-game road trip with wins at UT-Arlington and UTRGV. Le’Tre Darthard led the Wolverines with 19 points in their last win at UTRGV.
Our one-time Team of the People is eligible for the NCAA Tournament at the Division 1 level this season; while the Lancers have gotten off to a 2-2 start, they’ve already gotten most of their tough road games out of the way after starting WAC play with losses at Grand Canyon and Seattle. Since then, CBU has rebounded with a home win against Utah Tech and a road win at New Mexico State. Taran Armstrong leads the Lancers with 10.4 points a game and 4.8 assists a game.
