🔷 ONE BIG THING

Derrick Marks, an All-American, and Chandler Hutchison, the only first-round NBA draft pick in program history, were named to the Mountain West's 25th Season Men's Basketball Team. Marks was a four-year starter for the Broncos and is the only player to garner All-America recognition after receiving it from the Associated Press in the 2015-16 season. Hutchison was a two-time All-Mountain West first-team selection and was drafted by the Chicago Bulls with the 22nd pick in the 2018 NBA Draft. He is one of four players in program history to have averaged 20.0 points per game in a single season.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Warm Welcome. Boise State women's tennis head coach, Beck Roghaar, announced the addition of Paula Schaefer as a member of the 2024 recruiting class. Schaefer joins the program from Duisburg, Germany and has recorded several titles in her junior career, including national A7 singles and A4 doubles women's tournament championships in October 2022 and June 2023, respectively. The incoming freshman is also a three-time finalist at other national A7 women's tournaments and is a four-time state champion.

🗣️ "From my first conversation with coach Roghaar, I knew Boise State was the place for me. His positivity, laughter and genuine passion for the program is infectious. I could sense his enthusiasm for helping the team improve as players and individuals every day. I'm already eager to hit the court with him and the team." - Paula Schaefer

🔼 Return To The Sand. Bronco beach volleyball is returns to action at the Sugar Beach Bash. The team will play two matches on Friday against Southeastern Louisiana and Tampa and another two on Saturday against South Carolina and Tulane. The Broncos enter the tournament with an 11-6 record and are 10-2 in neutral-site matches.
