🔷 ONE BIG THING

Boise State softball rallied past Fresno State 5-4 before suffering a 9-1 defeat to San Diego State, Thursday in the Mountain West Softball Championship. In the day's first game, the No. 5-seeded Broncos won an eight-inning thriller after scoring three in the top of the seventh capitalized by Alycia Flores’ two-run home run to tie the game. In the next inning, Sophia Knight knocked in an RBI single and Jenna Bloom finished the job from the circle to earn the win.

In the second game of the day, the Broncos fell behind early, and despite tacking on a run in the second inning, San Diego State went on to post a five-inning mercy rule win. However, Boise State is not done yet as the Broncos will play UNLV in an elimination game today at 3 p.m. If the Broncos advance, they will play either Nevada or San Diego State at 6 p.m.

📈 STOCK UP

🔼 Day One Done. The first day of the Mountain West Championships for Boise State track and field saw two Broncos qualify for final events. Anass Mghari finished in fifth in the men’s 800m with a time of 1:51.85 to move on to the final race, and Janiah Brown finished second in her heat in the women’s 800m with a time of 2:07.14 to qualify for the finals.

🔼 Keep ‘Em Coming. Boise State men’s golf’s Cole Rueck finished the season in style. After winning the Mountain West individual title and a spot in the NCAA Championship, he was selected to the All-Mountain West team. Rueck is the fifth Bronco golfer to earn all-conference honors in the Mountain West era, and the fourth all-conference honor since 2021. The standout Bronco had three top-10 finishes this season and averaged 71.76 strokes per round — the 10th-lowest single-season scoring average in program history.
