Main Story

Tyler Weaver scored a career-high 21 points to lead Utah Valley past Weber State, 101-93, in Ogden. The Wolverines’ hot shooting—including 14 3-pointers—kept them ahead through a late Wildcats push and extended UVU’s winning streak in the rivalry to four games. Utah Valley is 2-0 to start the season.

By the Numbers
  • Weaver: 21 points on 7-of-8 shooting, including 5-of-6 from 3-point range.
  • Utah Valley: 59.6% shooting overall and 60.9% from 3-point range.
  • Five Wolverines scored in double figures; Jordy Barnes added 15 points and 7 assists.
  • Weber State outrebounded UVU 36-30 and held a 16-2 edge in second-chance points.
Yes, But

Utah Valley’s offense was sharp, but its defense and rebounding need work: Weber State shot 47.8% and generated a 13-4 advantage on the offensive glass. The Wildcats cut the margin to 5 late before Weaver’s 3-pointer and fast-break dunk helped seal the win.

What’s Next

Utah Valley continues its road swing at Nevada on Nov. 14.

Bottom Line

UVU showed it can win a high-scoring road game, but sustaining that early-season momentum will require better defensive rebounding.
