Utes Fall in Series Finale at UTSA

Carpenter and Clarkson homered despite the rubber game loss
SAN ANTONIO – Kaden Carpenter and TJ Clarkson each homered for Utah, but that was all the scoring for the Utes on Sunday as the squad dropped the rubber game, 14-3, to UTSA at Roadrunner Field.
Utah (5-6) will now head West as part of the team's Spring Break trip. The Utes will match up with Cal State Fullerton on Tuesday, March 7, in a 7 p.m. MT first pitch at Goodwin Field. That'll be the final game before opening Pac-12 Conference play at Washington from March 10-12.
Clarkson had a season-high three hits and Cameron Gurney, making his first start at first base, contributed a pair of base hits as the Utes totaled 11 for the day. For Gurney, the performance extended his hitting streak to a team-leading eight games.
UTSA broke the ice with three runs in the second inning. It came on four straight hits for the Roadrunners, including a two-run home run, before the home club added one more tally via an error.
The pace picked up over the next few innings before the clubs traded two-spots in the fifth. In the top half, Kai Roberts worked a leadoff walk before Clarkson clubbed a two-run homer later in the frame. It was a no-doubter for Clarkson, who took the first pitch long beyond the right field wall—earning his fifth home run of the year and second of the UTSA series.
But the Roadrunners answered with a pair of runs in the home half of the fifth and breaking the game open in the sixth, batting around for six runs.
Utah got one run back on Carpenter's solo shot in the top of the eighth, his first collegiate home run.
Merit Jones (0-1) made his second career start, going 4.1 innings and striking out four.
