📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Embracing You. Melia Barlow's path to Boise State volleyball has been anything but ordinary. The libero grew up on the Navajo reservation in Tuba City, Arizona, where her dad coached her from the start and community was everything. A move to Hamilton High School in Chandler unlocked new opportunities; she led the state in assists two straight years, earned back-to-back All-Region honors and helped the team win two state championships.

After two and a half years at Northern Arizona, Barlow bet on herself and transferred to Boise State, where she immediately felt at home. This summer, she attended the Native Student-Athlete Summit in Lawrence, Kansas, hearing from Olympic gold medalist Billy Mills and connecting with Indigenous athletes from across the country. Now one of three upperclassmen on the roster, she's ready to lead, both on and off the court.

🔼 We Over Me. New Boise State softball head coach Andrew Rich sat down for a full interview with Bronco Studios. Catch it here.

🔼 Go for Gold. Boise State women’s tennis’ Allison Isaacs and her doubles partner Julia Adams earned the gold medal at the W15 Kayseri!

🔼 See You There. Homecoming & Parent and Family Weekend is set! We’ll see you in Boise from Sept. 28 - Oct. 4. Come on out to the Bronco Bash as Boise State battles Utah State on Oct. 3.
