SEATTLE — Utah Valley fell to the No. 10 Washington Huskies 9-1 on Sunday at Husky Softball Stadium in Seattle.

Jaeden Barajas and Rylee Thorpe each went 1-for-3 for the Wolverines. Megan Gibbs brought home the lone Wolverine run with a bases-loaded walk in the third. 

UW scored in all five innings, but Utah Valley was able to hold the Huskies to just three extra-base hits on the afternoon. 

The Wolverines threatened to score in the first, but were unable to cash in. Barajas reached on an error, then Kalena Shepherd walked to set the table for Gibbs, who struck out looking on a two-seamer on the inside corner. 

Utah Valley loaded the bases in the third with two outs to bring home their lone run. Barajas and Thorpe hit back-to-back singles through the left side, then Shepherd reached on an error by the second baseman. Gibbs drew a bases-loaded walk to bring home Barajas, then Angelique Mann grounded out sharply to third. 

UW clinched the run rule victory with a walk-off homer to lead off the bottom of the fifth.

The Wolverines will head south on I-15 to St. George this coming weekend to take on the WAC-leading Utah Tech Trailblazers in the Old Hammer Rivalry. Due to graduation festivities taking place around the Utah Tech campus, the schedule has been altered from what was originally announced before the season. Friday will be a single game at 12 p.m. MDT, with a doubleheader on Saturday starting at 12 p.m. MDT. All three games will be broadcast live on ESPN+.
