Utah Spring Schedule Taking Shape

Today was the first day of official spring practice. We worked a bit on our speed of play and some individual defending. We had 12 healthy bodies as last fall's seniors are not training with us. A few players are still recovering from injuries: Katie Martinez, Emalee Rogers, Christine Quinn, Anne Shallenberger and Jen Christoffers are still in various stages of recovery. Hanna Turpen is just coming back and slowly getting up to full contact. And Erin Dalley is back from last summer's ACL surgery.

We are practicing in the beautiful Spence Eccles Fieldhouse on campus. Check it out here!

We will play 5 "games" during the spring, the maximum allowed by the NCAA. Some days will be multiple games. Here are the dates and details:

Saturday, March 28 vs. UNLV and BYU Las Vegas, NV
Wednesday, April 1 vs. Utah State at Ute Field
Saturday, April 11 at BYU event Provo, UT
Saturday, April 18 vs. Oregon NIKE Campus in Beaverton, OR
Sunday, April 19 vs. Seattle U. NIKE Campus in Beaverton, OR

We'll have more details as they arrive.
