PROVO — It’s not unusual for BYU to boast two-sport athletes and this year’s football team features tight end Matt Bushman, who also moonlights as a baseball player for the Cougars.

Bushman is on a football scholarship so he spends the vast majority of his time on that sport. The baseball team will hold its annual fall baseball practices soon but, of course, Bushman won’t be able to participate.
