Utah State resumes its 2025 season after a shorter-than-normal pause thanks to playing on Friday. It’s also homecoming, both with the festivities and the fact that this is the first time the Aggies are playing on Merlin Olsen Field since Sept. 20. Utah State is coming off a loss at Hawaii, though their opponent tonight, San Jose State, is also coming off a loss last Saturday at Wyoming.

A short week is what greets Utah State after a long and messy trip to Hawaii, both logistically and in terms of what the Aggies put on the field at the Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex. They’ll have to pull off a quick turnaround to earn a win on homecoming night against a fiesty San Jose State team that has quite a lot in common with Utah State. The Spartans and Aggies are both coming off losses in games where victory was expected. Both were favored on the road, USU over Hawaii (-1.5) and SJSU over Wyoming. And despite holding leads in the second half (USU led 26-24, SJSU led 28-14), collapses, particularly on defense, led to defeat. And, in a twist of fate, both sides will look at this game as one they desperately need to win. Mathematically speaking, the Aggies don’t have to win this game. They could technically still accomplish most or all of their preseason goals of bowl eligibility and even a Mountain West title (though the latter would need outside help with a loss Friday). But it’s hard to see a Utah State team losing this weekend and going on to win three out of the

Following a bye week, Utah State returns to action by returning to conference play. The Aggies will travel the nearly 3,000 miles to face Hawaii in the Aloha State. Should USU win, it would mark the first time since 2019 that the Aggies have started Mountain West play 2-0.

LOGAN, Utah – In another match against a fellow team unbeaten in Mountain West play, Utah State volleyball seemed headed for a difficult test following the first set. The Aggies, however, rebounded in spectacular finish to claim the next three sets to defeat Wyoming, 3-1 (18-25, 25-17, 25-16, 25-15) on Thursday night at the UniWyo Sports Complex. USU has now won six-straight matches. Set One The Cowgirls, who entered the match with a 4-0 record in MW play, took control of the opening set midway through the frame after both sides traded early runs. A 10-2 Wyoming burst proved too big a deficit to overcome as the Aggies managed to draw back within five points before a pair of Cowgirl points sealed the win for the home team to open the match.  Set Two Wyoming’s momentum was swiftly halted, however, as the Aggies jumped out of the gates with a 5-1 run early in the second frame. The Aggie defense came alive with a solo block by redshirt freshman middle blocker Lauren Larkin while sophomore outside hitter Andrea Simovski kickstarted the offense with a pair of kills. USU did not relent as a 9-2 run firmly entrenched the Aggies in the
