Rivalries

BYU has three main rivalries on their schedule- the Deseret First Duel vs. Utah, the UCCU Crosstown Clash vs. Utah Valley, and for the fourth consecutive season Utah Tech (formerly Dixie State).

Radio Information

BYU Baseball will once again broadcast as part of the NuSkin BYU Sports Network. BYU Radio 107.9 KUMT will serve as the flagship station. However, due to basketball and conference conflicts select games (Ohio State- Feb. 17, Cal- Feb. 21, West Virginia Game 2- Mar. 8, Texas Tech- Mar. 21 and Texas- Apr. 6) will only be available at byuradio.org and on the BYU Radio App. Jason Shepherd and Greg Wrubell return for most radio broadcasts. However due to basketball conflicts (Wrubell- men's and Shepherd- women's) Dave McCann joins the team for the first 11 road games. Steve Klauke takes care of the Texas Tech road series.
