Utes Picked Eighth: The Utah women's basketball team has been picked eighth in the 2016-17 Pac-12 women's basketball preseason poll, announced by the league office on Thursday at the Pac-12 Women's Basketball Media Day. The Utes, who garnered 52 points, are coming off an 18-15 season and a trip to the third round of the WNIT a year ago. Head coach Lynne Roberts, who is entering her second year, led Utah to the program's first winning season since 2012-13 and doubled the number of Pac-12 wins from the previous year by going 8-10 in league play. Among the four starters returning for Utah are junior center Emily Potter, who earned All-Pac-12 recognition last season, and senior wing Paige Crozon.
