BYU lands San Diego volleyball star
BYU's men's volleyball team was having an average year -- by its standards -- until a week ago, when the Cougars upset No. 4-ranked Penn State.

Friday night, the Cougars continued their hot streak and downed No. 5 Long Beach State in five sets. Then they did it again on Saturday, also in five sets.

Off the court, the Cougars have also received some good news. They have received a commitment from one of the top prep volleyball players in Southern California.

Tyler Heap, a senior at La Jolla High in the San Diego area, has committed to play for BYU. In addition to being a standout basketball and volleyball player, Heap carries a 3.85 GPA.
