🔼 Statement Made. Boise State men's tennis rolled into the Mountain West Championship semifinals with a dominant 4-0 sweep over New Mexico yesterday in Las Vegas, winning the first set on every singles court. Baker and Tallakson claimed the doubles point alongside Haddouch and Kurata, then Lukas Velik, Taiyo Kurata, and Stewart Aronson clinched singles to finish the job. Aronson's win was his team-high fifth match-clincher of the season, while Idriss Haddouch recorded his 99th combined career win. Boise State advances to face No. 2 San Diego State in the semifinals tonight at 6 p.m. MT.

🔼 Hold Serve. It’s tourney time! Boise State beach volleyball heads to Tucson today for its first Big 12 Championship ranked No. 18 in the AVCA Collegiate Beach Poll, the highest ranking in program history, and riding a four-game win streak that included wins over ranked Washington and Florida Atlantic.

The Broncos open pool play this morning against No. 1 Florida State at 10 a.m. MT before facing No. 4 South Carolina at 12:30 p.m. MT on ESPN+.

🔼 Title Defense. Boise State women's tennis opens Mountain West Championship play this morning against No. 7 Nevada at 11 a.m. MT in Las Vegas. The Broncos (18-3, 10-1 MW) enter as the No. 2 seed after sharing the regular season title, the first in program history, and have already beaten Nevada 4-0 this season. Four Broncos earned All-Mountain West honors, with Zdena Safarova, Tereza Polakova, Allison Isaacs, and Masa Viriant all recognized, marking the most singles selections of any team this year.

🔼 Welcome to Boise. Boise State men's basketball has signed 6'11 forward Jikany Deang, who transfers from North Dakota State College of Sciences (NJCAA). The Minnesota native averaged 17.6 points per game last season while starting all 31 games and helping NDSCS go 26-6. Over two seasons, Deang averaged 16.6 points on 44.4 percent shooting in 54 appearances.
