Utah already won a piece of the ASUN regular season title last weekend.
Head coach Andrew McMinn and the Utes have had an impressive run in just five seasons of existence that has not only included an impressive run in the ASUN, but their first ever trip to the NCAA Tournament last season.
Unfortunately, the Utes had a quick exit from their first NCAA appearance, losing to Notre Dame in the first round, but there is certainly hope this season they can make another run at it.
