Bear River Bears baseball. Photo by Clint Allen. PROVO – The Bear River Bears survived an up and down contest to get the day started in the 4A baseball playoffs at Larry H. Miller Field at Brigham Young University on Tuesday. #8 Bear River outlasted #5 Desert Hills 11-10 in an up and down game in the consolation bracket. With the win, they will play Wednesday at 11 a.m. at Utah Valley University against fellow Region 11 foe Mountain Crest. #6 Ridgeline has struggled to get runners on base and across home plate, while also stopping their opponents from doing the same. On Monday, Ridgeline lost 10-1 vs. Dixie and Tuesday wasn’t much better. The Riverhawks lost 8-1 vs #2 Crimson Cliffs, meaning Ridgeline is officially eliminated from the playoffs. Later in the day, #7 Green Canyon suffered a similar 8-1 loss to #3 Dixie. But the Wolves were not eliminated from contention. They will face the team who took out the Riverhawks – Crimson Cliffs – at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in the consolation bracket at Utah Valley University in Orem.

Putting Utah State’s football transfer attrition in context – Cache Valley Daily

Photo by Lorene Hale LOGAN – The spring transfer portal window has finally closed, stopping the hemorrhaging of Utah State’s roster, particularly on defense. The final tally sits at 35 players (that are known of) and that high tally has been the primary talking point of USU’s offseason, leading to questions being asked of head coach Blake Anderson and overshadowing some of the positives the team has produced so far this offseason. Though the volume of transfers is alarming on its face, context is always key. When asked about his team’s transfers, Anderson stated multiple times in his answer that, “this is not a Logan problem, this is an NCAA football problem.” So let’s look at the numbers and see how well that claim holds up. Just looking at the volume of transfers and you can easily see Anderson’s point. Transfer numbers have risen dramatically since the inception of the transfer portal in 2018. In that first cycle there were 1,717 transfer according to data provided by the NCAA. In this last cycle the estimated number (which we’ll get into below) is roughly double that. *2022-23 number is an estimation while the other years have data provided by NCAA reports

Logan Hammer, Brennan Benson claim titles on last day of MW Outdoor Championships – Cache Valley Daily

CLOVIS, California — Logan Hammer and Brennan Benson provided the highlights for Utah State track & field on the final day of the Mountain West Outdoor Championships, claiming the first individual titles for USU since 2019. In the team standings, the Aggie men held on for a fifth-place finish with 73 points, while the women finished eighth with 50.5 points. USU’s titles came in rapid succession. After clearing three previous heights, Hammer cleared 5.25 meters (17-2.75) on his second attempt, which proved to be enough to claim the MW pole vault championship over last year’s champion and runner-up, Colorado State’s Eldridge Harris and Air Force’s Caiden Macktinger, respectively. Hammer’s mark ranks fourth all-time at Utah State and ranks fifth nationally among freshmen. Also in the pole vault, sophomore Robbie Walker placed sixth with a mark of 4.65 meters (15-3). “Just to clear that bar has been a relief because I’ve been chasing that bar all season,” Hammer said. “Chasing 17 feet, through the ups and the downs. I thought about my mom. She told me today, ‘I don’t want anything for Mother’s Day except for a PR.’ So to give her that PR, not only one PR but two, and
