    Van Noy, Hill shine as BYU

    rolls over Utah StateB K l B y J

    On Utah States rst oensive play

    rom scrimmage, quarterback Chuckie

    Keeton threw a pass intended or

    his wide receiver. Unortunately or

    Keeton, BYU li nebacker Kyle Van Noy

    got to the pass rst and returned it 15

    yards or a touchdown.

    Its a great way to start o a game,

    BYU saety Daniel Sorensen said.

    [Van Noys] the kind o guy and

    impact player that does that consis-

    tently in practice. Hes capable o those

    types o plays and it

    was just great to seehim do it in a game.

    U t a h S t a t e

    answered later in the

    irst quarter ater

    BYU quarterback Tay-

    som Hill umbled on

    his own 15-yard line.

    Keeton took advan-

    tage o the turnover

    and threw a seven-

    yard strike to receiver

    Travis Van Leeuwen. Following the

    touchdown, BYUs deense held strong

    and Utah State wouldnt score again

    until the end o the ourth quarter.

    We really ocused on the ball not

    being able to go around us or over the

    top o us, BYU head coach Bronco

    Mendenhall said. Were willing just

    to be patient, and then try to knockas many balls down as possible on the

    quick game.

    Things then went rom bad to worse

    or Utah State late in the rst quarter.

    Keetons legs rolled up underneath

    him while being tackled trying

    to convert on a third-and-long

    scramble. Romney Sta-

    dium ell silent as ans

    watched Keet on

    roll around on the

    tur in pain. He

    was eventually

    helped into the

    locker room, and

    returned to the

    sideline on crutches.

    Keeton tore his

    ACL and

    M C L ,w h i c h

    will end

    his season.

    He will miss

    eight months

    while recovering.

    Im really so sad

    to see Chuckie get

    hurt, Menden-

    hall said. I

    could tell

    right at the beginning by

    the sound he made that he

    wasnt going to be good. Im

    hopeul he can return and lead his

    team.

    BYU quarterback Taysom Hill,

    who has struggled with pass ei-

    ciency this year, had his best pass-

    ing-game o the year. He ended thegame with career highs 278 yards

    and three touchdown passes. All

    three touchdowns were thrown to

    sophomore receiver Mitch Mathews,

    who hadnt caught a touchdown in

    his career until the contest against

    the Aggies. On top o the three touch-

    downs, Mathews led the Cougars withve catches and 112 yards receiving.

    I knew we always we had this

    potential, and I was just kinda wait-

    ing or a break out perormance,

    BYU quarterback Taysom Hill said.

    We made a ew changes oensively

    in our passing scheme this week and

    it paid o.

    By footba inspired deceased fans ifeB K y l I D

    BYU ootball was more than a pas-sion or 81-year-old David Pinckney and

    his amily: it was a way o lie.

    So when Pinckney collapsed and

    died suddenly in the north stands at

    LaVell Edwards Stadium beore the

    Middle Tennessee game Sept. 27, his

    amily was understandably shaken and

    overwhelmed with grie. But somehow

    they ound comort in the act that their

    husband and ather passed away at one

    o his avorite places on earth a place

    he revered.

    The next days headlines ocused

    on how an elderly an died beore the

    game, but this was not just an ordinary

    man or Cougar ootball an. Pinckney

    was a loving husband, dedicated ather

    and grandather, ormer high school

    ootball coach, popular substitute

    teacher, accomplished athlete, military

    veteran, returned LDS missionary and

    much more.

    Pinckney loved all things BYU oot-

    ball, and his legacy reminds ans o

    what being a Cougar an should be all

    about. He used BYU ootball as a vehi-

    cle to bring his amily together and

    touch many lives.

    It was a way o lie or my ather.

    God, amily and then there was BYU

    ootball, said Michael Pinckney,

    David Pinckneys son. He said ootball

    taught men to be responsible, to have

    character, to have aith and to have the

    Spirit.

    The Pinckney amily o Springville

    was true blue through and through,

    BYU ootball season ticket-holders or

    the past 18 years. When they lived in

    Caliornia, they were such avid Cougar

    ans that they went to the local stake

    center to watch satellite broadcasts o

    the games. They rarely missed a bowl

    game and even traveled to Notre Dame

    last year to watch the Cougars ace t he

    Fighting Irish.

    LaVell Edwards Stadium was

    a place o worship or him and or

    my amily, Michael Pinckney said.

    There was a time in my lie when I

    went through a rough divorce and I

    was heartbroken and there was a time

    when I did not attend church, but the

    one thing we had in common was BYU

    ootball. Even though we were not in

    contact or a while, BYU ootball kept

    us together and gave us something to

    talk about.

    Football brought the Pinckney am-

    ily together, so it is somehow tting the

    nal moments they spent together were

    at a BYU ootball game.

    In the Pinckney home, ootball has

    been a great blessing and has kept our

    amily together, Michael Pinckney

    said.

    Pinckney passed doing what he truly

    loved, surrounded by his amily, said

    his wie o 54 years, Joy Pinckney.

    That is what has given me peace,

    thinking How could he be so lucky?

    Joy Pinckney said. All his riends,

    everyone who knows him, say they all

    have a big smile on their ace. They

    really cant be sad. But couldnt it have

    been ater the game?

    His amily was proud o hi s example

    o a righteous, hard worker. He loved

    young people and always pulled or the

    underdog. Ater Pinckneys passing

    many o his students h ave reached out

    and told his amily o the positive infu-

    ence he had on their lives.

    Pinckney entered the Marines at age

    17 and always thought that the MarineCorps and BYU ootball taught men sim-

    ilar lessons.

    Ater much convincing, his mother

    signed the papers to allow him to

    join, his younge st daughte r, Eliza-

    beth Johnson, commented on the Daily

    Heralds website. He was so proud

    to be a Marine, and he hung his fags

    every morning and retired them every

    evening!

    Pinckney was a patriotic man and

    remembered the discipline and cama-

    raderie that the Marine Corps taught

    throughout his lie.

    Pinckney then attended BYU in the

    1950s, where he played ootball, met his

    wie and graduated in 1956 beore pur-

    suing a graduate degree in physical t-

    ness. Both Dave and Joy were studying

    to become teachers and realized they

    had grown up only a ew miles apart in

    Caliornia. The Pinckneys then moved

    to Fullerton, Cali., where he taught

    English and was a head ootball coach

    or 34 years.

    Pinckney moved to Springville to

    retire, but because he was such a hard-

    working man he told his amily it would

    be impossible to slow down. He audited a

    Japanese class at BYU, attended a Japa-

    nese temple session once a month, and

    became a substitute teacher in the Nebo

    School District.

    He couldnt stand being away rom

    his passion, Johnson said o his love

    or being around and teaching young

    people.

    His love or the Japanese culture led

    him and his wie to serve a mission at the

    LDS temple in Tokyo, Japan. In March o

    2011, one o the biggest earthquakes ever

    recorded hit Japan while Pinckney and

    his wie were living in Tokyo. Given the

    opportunity to go home, they decided to

    stay and help the relie eort.We loved the words that Elder

    (Joseph B.) Wirthlin said, Come what

    may and love it, Joy Pinckney said.

    That was really a strength to us. Thats

    one o our avorite sayings. We knew that

    the Lord would protect us i we stayed

    and did the work.

    Pinckney was extremely healthy and

    rarely went to the doctor. But in a man-

    datory check-up beore he let or Japan,

    he was diagnosed with prostate cancer.

    The Lord works in mysterious ways,

    Joy Pinckney said. I he would have

    never been infuenced to go on a mission

    they never would have ound the cancer.

    Pinckney was able to beat the cancer,

    the only major health problem he ever

    had.

    We were totally bowled over by what

    happened. The whole amily was, Joy

    Pinckney said.

    The events o Sept. 27 came as a shock

    to his amily, because Pinckney went to

    the gym at least ve days a week. He even

    went the day o his death.

    My dad was a tough man, but he was

    also very tender and loving, Michael

    Pinckney said. My dad was a man that

    did not want to show weakness. That was

    good and bad because we never knew

    when he was really hurting.

    The amily and everyone who knew

    him not only remembers his love or oot-

    ball but his desire to use his lie to bless

    others.

    Like the Savior went out to ind

    the one and let the 99, thats how my

    ather was, Michael Pinckney said.

    He always stood up or the underdog.

    Im proud o my ather.

    at Utah StateContinued from Page 7

    With Georgia Tech coming

    to Provo this weekend, BYU

    doesnt plan on celebrating

    the win or too long.

    We cant get too high on

    this game, BYU wide receiver

    Mitch Mathews said. This

    is a game that we needed tospring board us to our next

    game.

    The Cougars wil l play a Yel-

    low Jackets team that chal-

    lenged No. 15 ranked Miami

    or more than three quarters

    beore alling 45-30. Geor-

    gia Tech also lost to Virginia

    Tech earlier this season, but

    is 3-2 overall. The Cougars

    deeated the Yellow Jacketslast season 41-17.

    The Yellow Jackets will be

    the ourth consecutive team

    to enter their game with BYU

    sporting a winning record.

    Five o BYUs seven remain-

    ing opponents are over .500 to

    this point in the season.

    Winning record

    The Cougars improved to 32

    with the win, the rst time the

    team moved above .500 this sea-

    son. The Cougars have seven

    remaining games to earn three

    wins or bowl eligibility.

    Womens soccer bounces back at BaylorB y J K

    The No. 22 BYU womens

    soccer team came to play Fri-

    day, Oct. 4, at No. 2 0 Baylor or

    a huge test or the Cougars,

    and they pulled out a 2-1 win.

    This is a big win or uscoming o a couple o losses,

    said BYU head coach Jennier

    Rockwood.

    BYU had been in a recent

    slump, going into the game

    having only won one o its last

    ive games. The team went

    into this game looking to build

    some momentum heading into

    conerence play next week.

    Anytime you get a big

    win on the road it gives you

    momentum going orward,

    Rockwood said.

    About 30 minutes into the

    game, senior midielder Cloee

    Colohan put the Cougars on

    the board scoring o o a ree

    kick. BYU won the ree kick o

    o a BYU corner, and Colohanput the kick into the back o

    the net.

    Colohan continued her dom-

    inant play and had a hand in

    the game-winning goal later in

    the game. Colohan and sopho-

    more orward Sarah Chambers

    combined to ind senior or-

    ward Colette Jepson Smith or

    the goal. Chambers slipped

    the ball past the deense and

    Smith was irst to the ball and

    scored what proved to be the

    decisive goal.

    We had to play more direct

    and moved our orwards up

    higher. Sarah Chambers

    ound Colette Jepson Smith,

    who took a let-ooted shot at a

    tough angle, and that ended up

    the game-winner, Rockwood

    said.

    The BYU deense came up

    big again in this game, keep-

    ing another ranked team to

    only one goal. Erica Owens

    made our saves, and the back

    our and midielders played

    another remarkable game.

    Erica came up really big

    or us. Our deenders did a

    antastic job, and Rachel and

    Cloee battled really hard to

    win balls in the midield,

    Rockwood said.

    The win will provide much-

    needed momentum heading

    into conerence next week

    against San Francisco and a

    ranked Santa Clara team. The

    win also moves Coach Rock-

    wood to 299 total wins at BYU.

    This is a game that weneeded to spring board

    us to our next game.Mitch MathewsBYU wide reciever

    YU choir members rise, but dont shoutB y R R

    Being involved in the BYUchorus world means commit-

    ting to certain requests, such as

    not shouting at sporting events.

    Womens Chorus, Concert

    Choir and BYU Singers are

    encouraged to maintain their

    voices and not strain themselves

    at sporting events. However,

    due to the number o non-music-

    major men in Mens Chorus who

    enjoy spending their ree time

    at games, this request is more

    heavily enorced.

    At the beginning o the

    semester, each member o a

    BYU chorus signs a commit-

    ment contract stating that they

    will attend all practices and per-

    ormances as well as uphold cer-

    tain requests, like not shoutingat games, according to Rosalind

    Hall, Mens Chorus and Concert

    Choir conductor.

    Hall rst made this request

    when she came to BYU in 1999.

    It is not meant to restrict any

    school spirit but instead encour-

    age the singers to take care o

    their voices.Although our singers are

    discouraged rom screaming at

    games, we encourage them to

    nd other ways o showing their

    school spirit, Hall said. Some

    have perected the art o silent

    yelling.

    Patrick Tatman, gradu-

    ate assistant o Mens Chorus,

    said there arent any systems

    in place to monitor the mens

    shouting or consequences set by

    the choir.

    We do, however, try our best

    to educate them on the nega-

    tive impact shouting has on the

    voice, and we also do our best

    to convince them that i they

    do choose to shout and damage

    their voice, the success o ourchoir is severely compromised,

    Tatman said.

    According to Tatman, this

    success requires a higher level

    o commitment than simply

    singing the correct notes.

    A choir like the Mens Cho-

    rus is constantly working to

    produce a beautiul tone that isull o vibrancy and is pleasant

    or audiences to hear, he said.

    I a signicant portion o the

    men develop mechanical laryn-

    gitis rom yelling at the ootball

    game, the quality o the choirs

    sound will be greatly dimin-

    ished. We teach the men that it

    is not enough to simply sing all

    the right notes what matters

    most is how they sing the music.

    The how o singing is what cre-

    ates beautiul art.

    The science behind becoming

    hoarse supports the request to

    avoid shouting.

    The sound that we recog-

    nize as our own voice is actu-

    ally produced inside the larynx

    where two olds o lesh arevibrating against each other,

    ueled by outgoing breath rom

    the lungs, he said. The harder

    and longer the vocal olds are

    orced to rub against each other,

    the more heat and riction they

    will produce. Continued heat

    (and) riction will cause the

    vocal olds to become infamed

    this is known as mechanical

    laryngitis. Vocal olds that are

    infamed do not vibrate as reely

    as healthy vocal olds, and the

    resulting sound is

    what we recognize

    as a hoarsevoice.

    student rom Spanish

    Fork, does not have a prob-

    lem upholding the no-shout-

    ing request except or when

    something really exciting hap-

    pens at the game.

    To be honest, I mostly just

    clap or stomp to make noise,

    Hale said. Sometimes, though,

    its un to sing out a pitch simi-

    lar to the yelling around me, or

    even cause dissonance when

    theres booing. Others at the

    game are yelling, hard-rock

    style; mens chorus keeps itclassical.

    The policy simply states the

    men maintain top vocal con-

    dition, including not yelling at

    any sports games, according to

    Hale. He has also ound a way to

    vocalize cheering at games by

    sing-shouting.

    Yelling causes a lot o vibra-

    tion and damages to your

    throat; youre just orcing

    sound out, Hale said. Instead

    Ill use singing techniques to

    create a cleaner sound. Its

    similar to when people wooo

    in a high-pitched voice. It can

    be pretty loud i you create

    resonance.
