BYU Volleyball’s 2019 season came to a close in the MPSF tournament at Firestone Fieldhouse on Thursday night as the Cougars fell to Pepperdine in a sweep (17-25, 23-25, 18-25).
Davide Gardini and Gabi Garcia Fernandez had 10 kills and four digs each, while Miki Jauhiainen recorded four blocks in the season-ending defeat.
The Cougars, who entered the MPSF tournament as the five seed, finished the season 13-12 overall in what is being considered a rebuilding year, following the losses of Brenden Sander, Price Jarmin, and Leo Durkin. The Cougars welcomed newcomer Gardini, who was key for the Cougars throughout the season.
