Seitz gained his field goal when he rebounded his own missed free throw and put the ball through the hoop for two points. Seitz was fouled on the field goal and put in a free throw. Richard and Mike Ross scored three points for the Utes, but Clark Emery gained the rebound on his own missed shot and fired it in the hoop for a Uintah field goal.
