Junior outside hitter Veronica Jones-Perry helped push No. 8 BYU women’s volleyball to a five-set come-from-behind victory (22-25, 20-25, 25-20, 25-23, 15-10) against Saint Mary’s on Thursday night at McKeon Pavilion.

"I'm proud of our team's fight tonight," BYU head coach Heather Olmstead said. "Things weren't going well for us, but we just never gave up. Saint Mary's played well and Rob (Browning) does a great job, so we knew his team would be prepared. We had some players step up and execute when it mattered, which was nice to see."

Jones-Perry led the Cougars with 24 kills to go with 11 digs for a double-double.
