Provo • Ben Patch and Jake Langlois helped the fourth-ranked BYU men's volleyball team complete a series sweep against No. 2 UCLA, defeating the Bruins 25-13, 25-23, 31-29 on Saturday at the Smith Fieldhouse.

The Cougars (9-2, 4-1 Mountain Pacific Sports Federation) finished with a .420 hitting percentage in comparison to the .198 clip of the Bruins (9-3, 6-2).

"We played a much better, complete match tonight," BYU coach Shawn Olmstead said. "One of our points for this game was to be more calm, for the guys to be a little more level-headed. At the start, being up big, you need to be a lot more level-headed, and I was impressed with the guys. I thought we did that. We made the smart plays and didn't try to over-do it, so it was more of a complete match, and we just got better."

Patch finished with a game-high 13 kills and was followed closely by Langlois' 11. Leo Durkin had a match-high 28 assists.
