SALT LAKE CITY - The Utah women's basketball team embraces the `Power of Pink' on Feb. 8 against Wyoming with events supporting breast cancer awareness.

Utah will also be celebrating National Women and Girls in Sports Day. A postgame basketball clinic and autograph session will be held.
The Utes (15-6) rallied for a come-from-behind victory over TCU on Wednesday, Feb. 4, 73-63.

The Utes are also in the top 20 in field goal percentage defense (11th - 34.8), field goal percentage (15th - 45.5) and rebound margin (16th - 7.9). Individually, Morgan Warburton is ranked third in the nation in free-throw percentage (92.4) and is 24th in scoring (18.6 points per game).
Wyoming is 11-10 on the year, 3-5 in the MWC, but the Cowgirls are coming off a 52-50 win over New Mexico. Hillary Carlson leads Wyoming with 11.0 points per game while Megan McGuffey is pulling down a team-high 6.0 rebounds per game.
