Ben Barton needed to win the 1500 m (final decathlon event) by 7 seconds to take home the national championship. He won the race by 8.2 seconds 🤯
First BYU Decathlon champion since 1979
Perhaps the largest sacrament meeting in the world is happening right now in the Marriott Center.
BYU Fathers and Sons camp. 1,300 people. 16 priests blessing and 36 deacons passing the sacrament.
Former @byufootball tight end and now counselor in the Sunday School Presidency, Gabe Reid said this gathering celebrates the greatest victory ever won. Jesus over sin and death.
@BYUMBB head coach Kevin Young also talked about building a foundation on Christ.
Kalani Sitake's coaching style leads with love, and built a culture at BYU unlike anywhere else in college football.
That made all the difference for 4-star DL Jeremiah Williams.

High praise from Houston head coach Kelvin Sampson for BYU's crowd:
"BYU is not an easy team to play against. Especially in this building... They've got something special here... one of the best home court advantages, I think in the country...This is as tough as it comes."
Richie Saunders is on the Big 12 Starting Five this week after averaging a 25.5 ppg & 9.5 rpg in the week against Arizona and at Kansas.
He put up a career-high 33 points in Lawrence on Saturday.
Saunders joins Brayden Burries of Arizona (POW and Newcomer of the Week), Themus Fulks (UCF), Tamin Lipsey (Iowa State) & Bryson Tiller (Kansas).

BYU lost by 3 to the #1 team in the country on a night where Richie Saunders fouled out, and AJ and Rob were a combined 9/40. That’s wild. 😳
Two more shots fall and BYU wins this game. Plenty to be encouraged about. Huge bounce back opportunity at Kansas coming up.
