Show B8 Wednesday, May 17, 2006 Uintah defeats Snow Canyon in State quarterfinals To defeat Snow Canyon 6-3 ill the Class 3-A quarterfinals in Tooele Saturday, Uintah had to rely on something fans haven't seen much of this season the team's small ball game. "Small ball is not something this team has done much of," Uintah coach Brent Labium said. "But it worked for us today." With runners on first and third, and with two outs in the fourth, the runner on first intentionally put himself into a pickle. During the commotion commo-tion the runner from third had enough time to score. In the seventh inning the game was tied 3-3 With two Utes on base from a bunt and a walk, Snow Canyon committed a throwing error after a bunt by Jake Butler, allowing two runs to score. Dallas Smuin hit a sacrifice sac-rifice fly to give Uintah another run for good measure. Labrum did not feel his team was lucky, but admitted the Utes felt fortunate not to play No. 1 seed Tooele. Snow Canyon had defeated the Buffaloes earlier ear-lier in the morning 5-0. "Sometimes it's really how the seeds fall. It helped us to play a No. 4 seed and not the No. 1," Labrum said. Kevin Labrum pitched for Uintah and threw his first complete com-plete game of the year, holding a potent Snow Canyon lineup down. Ute Runners qualify for state ..Ml.l mi. 1M,,II1IH1'HI"I"'HIII .
