This description emphasizes the significance of Holmoe's retirement, highlights his key accomplishments, and promises a thoughtful reflection on his impact on BYU Athletics.

But the conversation doesn't stop there. We'll shift our focus to the critical question: Who will be the next leader of BYU Athletics?

We'll explore a range of potential candidates, including internal options like Brian Santiago, BYU's Deputy Athletic Director, and Liz Darger, Senior Associate Athletic Director/SWA.

BYU basketball's road win against West Virginia in Morgantown was a crucial victory that keeps their NCAA Tournament hopes alive. This Quad 1 win provides a significant boost to their resume and demonstrates the team's resilience and ability to perform under pressure.

The victory against a tough West Virginia team showcases the progress made under Coach Kevin Young. The Cougars displayed grit and determination, overcoming adversity to secure a hard-fought victory.

This win is a significant step towards their goal of reaching the NCAA Tournament. However, the road ahead remains challenging. BYU must continue to build on this momentum and finish the season strong to solidify their position in the tournament bracket.

This victory provides a much-needed boost of confidence and momentum for the Cougars as they strive to achieve their postseason goals.
