BYU Men’s volleyball responds to season-opening loss with sweep of UCLA
The BYU men’s volleyball program found positives after a season-opening loss to UCLA on Feb. 4. Senior outside hitter Davide Gardini said the team doesn’t have to worry about going undefeated any more and can play more freely.
The No. 1-ranked Cougars did just that Saturday night, sweeping No. 8 UCLA 3-0, and avenging their loss to the Bruins less than 48 hours earlier.
“This is the level we can play at and we can continue this throughout the season,” Gardini said.

The snow falling on Utah’s mountains have been decreasing every year, creating a mega drought. (Preston Crawley)
Environmental experts say Utah’s lack of snowfall could trigger a mega drought and is evidence of human-caused climate change.
Utah has been very dry the past few years because of a lack of snow fall and snowpack, which is crucial for filling the reservoirs and supplying water to be used in agriculture.
“It’s normal for one year to be wetter or drier than the next, that’s called natural variability. But what we are experiencing right now is fundamentally different; it’s not just a dry spell,” said BYU plant and wildlife sciences professor Ben Abbott. “This is the driest 20 year period in almost 1,000 years.”

BYU English major Dylan Robinson said he had no idea what he was doing when he walked into a literature reading last winter semester. He didn’t even know that Inscape the journal hosting the reading had accepted his poem for its publication until a few hours before the reading began.
He went to the reading at his professor’s encouragement, listened to other writers share brave, personal pieces and walked away from the experience hungry for more. Robinson joined the Inscape staff the following semester, and that as another poet once said has made all the difference.
