SALT LAKE CITY, Utah -- No. 14 Utah defeated second-ranked Arizona, 6-3, handing the Wildcats their first loss in the Pac-12 this year.
 
The Utes scored six runs off Taylor McQuillin, becoming the first team to score more than four runs against Arizona in 2017.
 
The Wildcats fell to 41-2, 13-1 Pac-12. Utah improved to 27-8, 9-3 Pac-12.
 
Arizona had base runners all game against Utah starter Miranda Viramontes (11-1), recording 10 hits in the contest, but managed just three runs coming in the sixth and seventh innings. Dejah Mulipola went 4-for-4 with a double in the game.
 
Utah used a leadoff single and double to plate the game's first run in the bottom of the first inning.
 
The Utes added two more runs in the second to take a 3-0 lead and three more in the fourth to chase McQuillin (13-1). Floyd pitched the final 2.1 innings and allowed just two hits in the process.
