"Weber State is a very athletic team," said UVU head coach Dick Hunsaker. "They can mix you up defensively in a lot of ways. They have some very talented personnel that will be a real challenge for us to compete against."
 
Saturday night's meeting with Weber State will mark the eighth time the two schools have met on the hardwood. The Wildcats own a 4-3 all-time series lead over the Wolverines. Weber State is a perfect 4-0 against the Wolverines in Ogden, while Utah Valley is a perfect 3-0 against WSU in Orem.
