PROVO — After being sidelined for three straight games due to an injury, BYU safety Dayan Ghanwoloku was back on the field against Hawaii and he made a big impact, which included a fumble recovery on a muffed punt in the 49-23 victory.

“It feels good. I hated just watching the games,” Ghanwoloku said. “It was different playing. It felt really good to be back with the boys.”

On the season, Ghanwoloku has recorded three fumble recoveries in just four games, highlighted by a 36-yard fumble recovery return for a touchdown against Cal.

“I just run to the ball, to be honest,” he said of his proclivity for recovering fumbles.
