Prior to Coach McGuyre’s tenure, the BU volleyball program had been to four NCAA Tournaments in the program’s history.

🔺 Fought Til The End. The fall didn’t go the way they wanted, but no one can ever question the heart of the Bears.

With injuries, weather and much more piling up, the Baylor football team gave it their all to the final whistle of 2023, but a late score by visiting West Virginia dropped the Green & Gold, 34-31, in the season finale at McLane Stadium.

It was a historic day from Richard Reese as the sophomore scored on back-to-back kickoff returns for the first time in NCAA history.
