Hilburn was a double-threat for Utah this season. She led the team in both strikeouts as a pitcher and tied for the team-lead in home runs as a batter.
Noskin was lethal on the basepaths for the Utes, leading the team in runs scored and stolen bases. She also had a slick fielding touch as she paced the Pac-12 Conference in fielding assists.
Utah finished the season with a 19-35 record and a 7-17 mark in conference play.
