Last time Out: Despite struggling from the three-point line (2-for-18) against UT Arlington, stingy defense led the Utes to a 71-41 win. Emily Potter secured her second double-double of the season with 16 points and 11 rebounds while Tilar Clark contributed 11 points, her best output as a Ute. Megan Jacobs added a season-best 10 points (4-for-6). Utah forced the Mavericks to shoot just 11-percent from the three and 32-percent from the field, handing them their first loss of the season.

She broke the single-season blocks record two seasons in a row (89 in 2016-17, 83 in 2015-16) and has tied Lauren Beckman for the career blocks record (225). She is just one away from setting the new record.
