BYU men's volleyball: Cougars swept by No. 1 Long Beach on senior night

PROVO — Long Beach looked every part of a No. 1 seed on Saturday, dealing out a sweep to No. 3 BYU (25-21, 25-22, 25-21.) It was the first time the Cougars have been swept at home and the result left the packed-in home crowd of 5,783 not the least bit stunned, leaving for home much earlier and far less happy than anticipated.

The 49ers put on a clinic from the first serve on.

The first set saw them commit no hitting errors en route to a relatively comfortable 25-21 win. The second went a lot like the first, with Long Beach executing nearly flawless volleyball and breaking away late for a 25-20 set win.
