UNLV was on the road so it was a Utah 2-Step on Martin Luther King Day

The Big Sky conference will be playing Covid catch-up for a spell due to a large number of cancelations so both the Dixie State Ladies and the Southern Utah University Men played make up games on Monday.

Utah Valley squeaked out a 68-65 road victory when the Trail Blazers came up short on a 3 point shot attempt that would have forced overtime.

Up the road in Cedar City visiting Portland State went shot for shot with the homesteading Thunderbirds until the final few minutes. SUU led 70-69 before they finally put away the pesky Vikings by 10 points.

Both contests proved to be highly entertaining from start to finish πŸ‘ and nothing but the best for all four schools going forward.
