standard push?

45-man SNG with 30-something still left. UTG is obviously short and has a decent sized range. is this a standard push in this position with my stack size? should i even be considering folding here?

Very standard. AQ/99 look fine too but might be close.

ended up losing to late position caller with JJ that had me covered. UTG had A10s. i just wanted to make sure i was making the right play instead of focusing on results.

The call with JJ in that spot is the one that should be questioned. I play about 300, 45man SNGS a month and this is a standard call with AKs. You are most likely flipping, and you can ride a $4,000+ stack to the final table. Definitely worth the gamble.
