Cougars Drop Season-Opener Against Stanford

PROVO -- After starting the night unveiling its 2001 NCAA National Championship banner in a pre-match ceremony, the BYU men's volleyball team lost to Stanford on Friday, 27-30, 29-31, 30-26, 19-30 in front of 5,334 fans in the Smith Fieldhouse. The loss marked the first season-opening defeat for the Cougars since the 1994 season, ending a streak of eight-straight season-opening victories.

"It's disappointing to have 5,000 fans in the gym and play the way we did," BYU head coach Carl McGown said. "We practiced poorly all week. I don't know if we thought because we are the defending NCAA champions, everything would work itself out, or if we were just overlooking Stanford. I'm not sure. We weren't focused and we played poorly tonight. We didn't do anything very well. We didn't serve well, we didn't hit quick--I don't think there's anything to write home about tonight."

The Cardinal hit .365 on the night, led by Curt Toppel who produced 22 kills with only four errors to hit .462. Stanford hit a blistering .565 in the final game of the match, recording 14 kills with just one error. Stanford outplayed BYU at the net, posting 11.0 team blocks to the Cougars' 9.0. Kyle Strache recorded a team-high seven block assists, including back-to-back blocks with teammate Billy Strickland to grab the momentum in the final game of the match.

After Stanford looked like it would cruise to a 3-0 win, Cal Baptist transfer Rafael Paal recorded back-to-back aces in game three to give BYU a 26-23 lead, but the Cardinal stayed within two points throughout the remainder of the game until All-American Mike Wall picked up one of his 22 kills on the night. With a 29-26 advantage, middle blocker Chris Gorny produced the Cougars' biggest block of the night to record the victory and avoid the team's first 3-0 shutout since the 2000 season. The streak remains intact at 28 straight matches without being defeated in three straight games.

Wall led BYU a .310 hitting percentage, complete with a team-high 22 kills on 42 swings. Joaquin Acosta added 19 kills and Jaime Mayol chipped in 15. In his first career start at setter, Jeremiah Larsen had a match-high 64 assists, while Paal turned in four aces., four digs and four blocks.

The same two teams will meet again on Saturday, beginning at 7 p.m. (MST) in the Smith Fieldhouse. Saturday's match will mark just the second of eight straight home contests for the Cougars.

"We're going to have to look at some film and talk about the way we played tonight," McGown said. "We're going to have to play with more heart tomorrow night. That's the only hope is that we bring some competitive fervor and some heart."
