Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 TAYLORSVILLE, Utah (March 22, 2019) - An off-week in the Scenic West Athletic Conference could have been viewed as a chance for the No. 18 Salt Lake Community College baseball team to recharge.

Instead, the Bruins kept their foot on the figurative gas pedal and rolled to an impressive doubleheader sweep of the Idaho State University club team, earning 17-1 and 21-1 victories. The wins pushed Salt Lake's overall record to 20-4.

SLCC will host another doubleheader with the Bengals on Saturday. The day's first game will start at 12:00 p.m. at Cate Field in West Jordan.
