PROVO — The No. 3-ranked BYU men's volleyball team (21-3, 14-2) travels to Santa Barbara (10-14, 5-11) Thursday for two matches to finish off regular-season and MPSF play. Thursday's match is set for 8 p.m. MDT, with Friday's match beginning at 6 p.m. MDT.

Should the Cougars win both matches, they will likely win a share of the MPSF regular-season championship with Long Beach State (23-3, 15-2 MPSF), which finishes its season with a match against Cal State Northridge.
