The taller Anteaters with twin towers Leland Quinn and Chris Harger appeared to overBYU times at power early in the match. The Cougars put up almost no block on and often found themselves hitting into the massive block of the Anteaters. But by the time the fifth game arrived, the Cougars had it figured out. Four times, BYU blockers sent balls back into the faces of Quinn, Harger and 6 Jason Arata. Five times Cougar hitters knocked kills off big Antea-te- r blocks for points. And that was enough to send the crowd of 1 ,524 home happy. "We sure blocked a lot at the end, so we must have figured it out," said BYU coach Carl "I thought Anthony Fenton was a key for us. He came in in game four and five and did a great job. He passed well, had seyeral kills, served well. We played better with him in there. ' ' Fenton, who was replaced in the starting lineup this game because McGown said he hadn't been playing that well recently, used his bench time well. By the time he entered the match in game four, he appeared to know just what to do. He had three kills (hitting .400), one assist, two digs and a couple of block assists to help key the Cougar comeback. Karl Van Reusen also shone for BYU. The senior had 19 kills and only four errors in 30 attempts for a sparkling .500 hitting percentage. He also added five key service aces, three digs, six block assists and two big solo blocks, one in the pivotal fifth game. Irvine came back from an 8 deficit to win game one, then BYU returned the favor by trailing 3 before coming back to win game two.
