WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALL: BYU outside hitter Bryn Porter earned the Mountain West Conference Volleyball Player of the Week award, marking her second career weekly honor.

Porter, a 5-foot-11 senior from Camarillo, Calif., led the 20th-ranked Cougars to a 3-0 record and the tournament title while being named Tournament MVP at the BYU Molten Classic. She led the Cougars in kills in all three matches. Against Tulane, Porter collected 15 kills, nine digs and had a career-best six blocks. In the tournament's championship match vs. Missouri, Porter tallied her first double-double with career-highs in kills (19) and digs (16).

WOMEN'S SOCCER: Freshman forward Lauren Anderson continued her strong start to the season, recording the first goal of her Cougar career, but BYU lost a difficult 4-1 match at William & Mary on Thursday.

The Cougars fell behind early when William & Mary scored on an own goal. Kristi Dow-Jackson assisted on Anderson's goal. BYU next plays at Marquette Saturday.
