BYU men's volleyball: BYU scores a thrilling five-set win over No. 1 Long Beach

Scott G Winterton, Deseret News

I think it was the second or third set, but we couldn't even hear ourselves. It was unreal. It was amazing, and that's the reason we all come to BYU — for that.

PROVO — Sometimes sporting events live up to their billing, and that was certainly the case Friday night at the Smith Fieldhouse, with the No. 3 BYU men's volleyball team coming out on top of No. 1 Long Beach in five sets (20-25, 26-24, 25-20, 21-25, 17-15.)

BYU fans filled the stands — all 5,213 of them, with none of them losing their voices up until the final match point.
