California Baptist vs Utah Valley Prediction
California Baptist is playing well at the moment and was able to split with Utah Valley this season. Still, there’s a huge gap between these teams on the offensive side and Utah Valley does have the best player on the court. If Utah Valley is making shots, which it has all season, Cal Baptist just doesn’t have the horses to keep up. We’re laying a bucket. I’m going to side with Utah Valley in the conference championship.
