Good Morning, Boise State 4/15: Running Into History
Plus: Once a Bronco.
Good Morning, Bronco Nation!
Ava Anderson and Addison Wolden earned Big 12 Pair of the Week honors after going 4-0 at the Boise State Beach Bash, giving No. 19 Boise State its second weekly pair award of the season. The duo showed resilience all weekend, rallying from first-set deficits against Florida International and No. 11 Grand Canyon to earn hard-fought three-set wins. Boise State closes the regular season at the Alki Invitational in Seattle on April 17-18 before heading to the Big 12 Championship in Tucson on April 23-24.

🔹 And so much more!
📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Back to Back. Raekwon Weatherspoon has been named Mountain West Outdoor Field Athlete of the Week for the second consecutive week. His 7.89m mark in the long jump leads the Mountain West by 0.38 meters and ranks tied for seventh nationally. Weatherspoon is the first Bronco ever to earn back-to-back Mountain West Field Athlete of the Week honors and the first in the conference to do so since May 2025.

🔼 Running Into History. Two Boise State track & field athletes landed in the Boise State program record books! Rakewon Weatherspoon tied the program record in the long jump, while Priscilla Adu-Gyamfi clocked the third-fastest women’s 400m in school history.
🔼 Once a Bronco. Boise State men’s tennis is gearing up to celebrate Senior Day on Saturday at 11 a.m. Taiyo Kurata is one of two Broncos being honored this weekend.

🔼 On to the Next. Boise State softball fell 5-3 at Idaho State last night, and Kate Penberthy continued her torrid stretch with a home run and two RBI, her team-best 10th homer of the season, making her just the third Bronco in school history to homer in four consecutive games. The Broncos host UNLV beginning Friday at 6 p.m.
