October 2025 marks the 150th anniversary of the founding of Brigham Young University. As a campus community, and within BYU Athletics, we are excited to both honor our past and envision our future, to remember the many people who have built this school into what it is, and to celebrate and share the divine gifts of light that BYU cultivates in all of us.
For the past 150 years, BYU has been amplifying truth and knowledge by nurturing the divine light in our students who then share the light of Jesus Christ with the world. As we celebrate BYU, we will celebrate gifts of light: gifts of light given to us and gifts of light we can share with others, for “That light groweth brighter and brighter”—“that all may be edified of all” (D&C 50:24; 88:122).
Below are just a few examples of beacons of light from BYU Athletics.
