Aft er more than ten years of guiding the Boise State wrestling program, Greg Randall has established himself as one of the top collegiate coaches in the country. Randall has led the Broncos to the top of the Pac-12 Conference four times, to go along with seven top-25 fi nishes at the NCAA Championships. In his 11 seasons since being promoted to head coach, Randall's teams have fi nished in the top-three at the conference tournament 10 times.

Taking over the program following the 2001-02 season, Randall has led the Broncos to a dual match record of 112-46-1 the past 10 seasons for a 70.8 winning percentage. In that time 10 of his wrestlers earned 15 NCAA All-America honors while capturing 29 individual Pac-10 championships.

Randall's league fi nishes include the 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2011 Pac-10 championships, runner-up fi nishes in 2003, 2005, 2010, 2012, and 2013 and a third-place fi nish in 2006.

In 2011, Randall's Broncos placed ninth at the NCAA Championships with a competitor at every weight class. Th e 10 participants and ninth-place fi nish each set program records. Th e team had previously wrestled to an 11th-place fi nish in 2010, 12th-place fi nishes in 2003 and 2009, 19th place in 2013 as well as 24th-place fi nishes in 2006 and 2008.

In 2007-08 Randall earned his fi rst Pac-10 Coach of the Year award, which came in part to his team's dominating

performance at the league championships. Boise State scored the third-highest Pac-10 tournament score in history with 152.5 total points. With the win the Broncos also sent nine wrestlers on to the national tournament, which was highlighted by Kirk Smith's eighth-place fi nish at 184 pounds.

A year later, Randall would repeat as Pac-10 Coach of the Year, winning the conference championship and crowing six individual champions.

In 2006 Randall guided his fi rst NCAA individual champion as a head coach with Ben Cherrington capturing the national title in the 157-pound weight class. Cherrington was the second wrestler Randall has helped to a fi rst-place fi nish at the NCAA tournament. In 1999 as an assistant coach for the Broncos, Randall helped guide Kirk White to the 165-pound national title.

Randall became just the third head wrestling coach in the past 41 years at Boise State when he was promoted to the head coaching position on April 5, 2002, following the retirement of longtime head coach Mike Young.

Prior to taking over the top coaching position, Randall was known as one of the top assistants in the country, helping the Broncos to two Pac-10 championships and several top-20 fi nishes at the NCAA tournament during his 10 years under Young.

His success as an assistant carried over in his fi rst year at the helm of the Bronco program (2002-03) when he was named "Rookie Coach of the Year" by Amateur Wrestling News.

Since Randall joined the Bronco wrestling program 20 years ago, 16 individuals have earned a total of 24 NCAA All-America awards. Current assistant coach Kirk White came away with three of those All-America awards (during the 1999 season which came en route to his national individual title, along with 2000 and 2001). Along with the three won by White, six other Broncos have also been multiple winners of the national honor. Th ey are Larry Quisel (third in 1999 and second in 2000 at 157 pounds), Cash Edwards (seventh in 2000 and sixth in 2001 at 184 pounds), Ben VomBaur (fourth in 2002 and sixth in 2003 at 125 pounds), Smith (eighth in 2008 and second in 2010 at 184 pounds), Andrew Hochstrasser (fourth in 2009 and second in 2011 at 133 pounds) and Hall (third in 2010 and fi ft h in 2011 at 157 pounds).

Broncos earning single NCAA All-America honors with Randall as an assistant or head coach include Nels Nelson (seventh in 1992 at 150 pounds), Rusty Cook (fourth in 2001 at 197 pounds), Charles Burton (third in 1996 at 167

pounds), Collin Robertson (sixth in 2003 at 149 pounds), Boe Rushton (third in 2003 at heavyweight), Cherrington (fi rst in 2005 at 157 pounds), Sherfey (eighth in 2009 at 165 pounds), Chriswell (sixth in 2009 at 197 pounds) and Jason Chamberlain (third in 2011 at 149 pounds).

Burton went on to become Boise State's fi rst student-athlete to become a member of a United States Olympic team. Th e native of Meridian, Idaho, represented the United States at 2000 Sydney Games competing in the freestyle division, where he placed fi ft h in the 87-kilogram (187.25-pound) weight class.

A 1987 graduate of the University of Iowa, Randall was a three-time NCAA All-American for legendary coach Dan Gable. In 2003 Randall had the honor to serve as an assistant to Gable for the U.S. World Cup wrestling team.

Randall wrestled in the 134-pound weight class at Iowa, helping the Hawkeyes to four NCAA national championships. He was a three-time All-American, fi nishing runner-up for the national championship in 1984 and 1986. As a junior in 1985 he placed fi ft h at the national tournament.

Randall was a Big 10 Conference champion in 1985 and received the award for the "Most Falls in the Least of Amount of Time". In 1985, 1986 and 1987 he was selected as a participant for the East-West All-Star Wrestling Classic. Following his 1987 season Randall received Iowa's McGivern Award, which is presented each year to the team's most courageous wrestler.

Competing at the international level in 1989, Randall captured the gold medal for his weight class at the Pan American Games. He has also been a runner-up at the U.S. Open Nationals and placed second at the 1989 U.S. Olympic Festival.

He is also a two-time junior national champion.

Since the 1996-97 season, when Owens was named an assistant coach, he has helped Boise State to several individual and team championships as the Broncos continue to boast one of the top wrestling programs in the country. He is also playing a key role in the future success of the team, helping sign some of the nation’s top high school wrestlers to national letters of intent at Boise State.

Owens has been a part of Pac-10 Conference Championships in 2000, 2002, 2004, 2008, 2009 and 2011, as well as runner-up fi nishes in 1999, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2010, 2012 and 2013.

Owens has also help direct the Broncos to 10 top 25 team fi nishes at the NCAA National Wrestling Championships in the past 12 years, 32 individual Pac-10 titles, 92 individual appearances at the NCAA National Tournament and two individual national championships.

Th ose national championships included Kirk White’s fi rst-place fi nish in the 165-pound weight class at the 1999 NCAA Tournament, and Ben Cherrington’s fi rst-place fi nish at the 2006 tournament in the 157-pound weight division.

In 2010-11, Owens helped Boise State to one of its best seasons on record, sending a school-best, 10 student-athletes to the NCAA Tournament aft er winning another Pac-10 title. At the national tournament, the Broncos fi nished ninth with 57.5 points, a school record.

Before becoming an assistant at Boise State, Owens was a member of the Oklahoma State University wrestling team, helping the Cowboys to the 1990 NCAA National Championship.

During the 1990 season, Owens was named to the freshman All-American team. He also earned two All-American honors in 1990 and 1992 placing third and second, respectively, at the NCAA Tournament. Entering his senior season at Oklahoma State, Owens was ranked number one in the nation at his weight class of 134 pounds. But a knee injury ended the season early for Owens.

Owens fi nished his career at Oklahoma State with an overall record of 85-6 and helped the Cowboys to the 1992 Big Eight Conference Championship. Owens was named the Outstanding Wrestler at the St. Louis Open in 1990, and was runner-up at in his weight class at the prestigious Espoir National Tournament.

A native of Idaho Falls, Idaho, Owens was the State of Idaho’s fi rst four-time high school champion and fi nished his prep career undefeated with an overall record of 123-0.

One of the all-time greats in Boise State wrestling history, Kirk White is entering his eighth year as an assistant coach for the Broncos.

As a sophomore in 1999, White burst on to the collegiate scene when he became the fi rst Bronco to win an NCAA National Championship (165 pounds) in wrestling. He continued his collegiate success by earning two more NCAA All-America awards in 2000 and 2001 to become the only three-time NCAA Wrestling All-American in Boise State history. White posted a four-year record of 130-26 for an .833 winning percentage.

Injuries kept White out of the 2006 rankings, but prior to that he was ranked third in 2003, fourth in 2004 and second in 2005. At the 2003 World Cup hosted in Boise, White competed for World Team Select, helping his squad to the World Cup silver medal. In both 2003 and 2004, White represented the United States in the Pan-American Championships, where he won the silver medal on both occasions. He has earned prestigious USA National All-America Medals (top eight) in each of his fi ve attempts (1999, 2002-05), including a second place fi nish in his most recent campaign (2005).

Ben Cherrington capped a perfect season during his senior year of 2005-06 when he became just the second Boise State wrestler in school history to win an individual NCAA National Championship. Following an early-season injury which kept him out of the line-up until midway through his fi nal season, Cherrington was unbeatable once he stepped back on the mat, posting a 20-0 record on his way to the 157-pound title at the NCAA Tournament in Oklahoma City, Okla. Cherrington dominated his opponents during his undefeated season, winning three matches by pin, three by technical fall and six by major decision. Along the way to his national collegiate title, Cherrington also recorded his second-straight Pac-10 Championship. His fi rst came in in 2005 at the 149-pound weight class. Cherrington qualifi ed for the NCAA National Tournament all four years of his collegiate career. His overall collegiate record was 93-32, including a mark of 54-8 for an .871 winning percentage his fi nal two seasons.

Ben Cherrington - 2006 NCAA Champion

Kirk White was the fi rst Boise State wrestler to win a NCAA National Championship when he captured the 165-pound weight class in 1999. As a sophomore that year, White took collegiate wrestling by storm by winning the Pac-10 Championship, and then continuing his winning streak at the NCAA National Tournament. White dominated his opponents during his championship season, posting an overall record of 38-1. His only loss came at the National Wrestling Coaches Association All-Star Dual. While he did not win another NCAA national title as a junior and senior, he did earn two more NCAA All-America awards to become the only three-time NCAA Wrestling All-American for the Broncos. White completed his four years at Boise State with an overall record of 130-26 for a winning

percentage of .833. The breakdown of White’s season-by-season results are 1997-98: 27-6 (81.8%); 1998-99: 38-1(97.4%); 1999-00: 20-8 (71.4%); 2000-01: 29-6 (82.9%).

In September of 2007, White was inducted into the Boise State University Athletic Hall of Fame.

Charles Burton - 2000 United States Olympic Freestyle Team Member

Former Bronco wrestler Charles Burton made history in September of 2000, when he became the fi rst Boise State University athlete to become a member of a United States Olympic Team. A native of Meridian, Idaho, Burton was a 1996 NCAA All-American at 167 pounds and completed his career at Boise State with 101 victories. He representated the United States at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games competing in the Freestyle division and placing fi fth in the 87 kilogram (187.25 pound) weight class.

Burton’s overall record at the Sydney Games was 3-1. He won his fi rst two Olympic matches by not allowing a single point by his opponents. In the

quarterfi nals Burton held a 2-1 lead in the overtime period when Magomed Ibragimov of Macedonia scored a three-point throw to post a 4-2 win. Burton won the fi fth-place match by injury default over Yang Hyun Mo of Korea. While competing in Freestyle, Burton won the 1997 University Freestyle National Championship, the bronze medal at the 1997 Pan American Games and a silver medal at the 1999 World Team Trials. He earned his spot on the 2000 Olympic Team when he defeated then-World Champion Les Gutches in a special wrestle-off. The two wrestlers split the fi rst two matches before Burton defeated Gutches 5-0 in the third match to earn his roster position on the national team. In November of 2001, Burton was inducted into the Boise State University Athletic Hall of Fame.

When Mike Young retired as the Bronco wrestling head coach at the end of the 2001-02 season, he did so as one of, it not, the most successful coaches in the history of Boise State athletics. In 31 years guiding the Broncos, Young produced 12 conference championships, one national champion, 11 All-Americans and earned 12 conference Coach of the Year awards. Ten of his league titles and coach of the year awards came when Boise State was a member of the Big Sky Conference. The fi nal two came in 2000 and 2002 when he led the Broncos to league crowns in the Pac-10 Conference. Kirk White was Young’s most successful individual wrestler, winning the 1999 NCAA National Championship in the 165-pound weight class and becoming the only three-time NCAA All-American. Young’s two most successful years at the NCAA National Tournament came in 1999 and 2000. The 1999 team posted the best fi nish in school history at the time, placing 10th. The next season Boise State fi nished 12th as three Broncos

earned All-America honors. Young also coached the fi rst Boise State student-athlete to become a member of a United States Olympic Team. Charles Burton, who wrestled for Young and the Broncos in the late 1990s, competed in Freestyle at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, and placed fi fth in the 85-kg weight class. Young began his Boise State career in 1970 as an assistant wrestling coach, and took over the head coaching position in 1972. In 1987 he was inducted into Boise State University’s Athletic Hall of Fame.

WELCOME TO BRONCO NATIONWELCOME TO BRONCO NATION 41

In an effort to continue the climb in competition, Boise State has outlined a plan to improve the infrastructure and fi nancial position of its athletic department. The project is called the “Initiative for Athletic Excellence.” It is a detailed plan that lays out the direction for the department and its facilities to ensure the Broncos’ continued growth and success.

In the last 15 years Boise State’s growth has led to the addition of women’s soccer (1998), women’s swimming & diving (2006-07) and softball (2008-09). During that time Boise State has built four competition facilities: the state-of-the-art Appleton Outdoor Tennis Center (2002), the Boas Soccer & Tennis Complex (2003), Jacksons Indoor Track (2003 - a joint effort with the city of Nampa) and Dona Larsen Park which includes new track & fi eld and softball stadiums (2012). In January of 2006 the Caven-Williams Sports Complex, a 97,000 square-foot indoor practice facility, was opened next to Bronco Stadium. The Boas Indoor Tennis Center also underwent signifi cant renovation with the replacement of the bubbles, while the Stueckle Sky Center, which includes a new press box, luxury suites, banquet halls, new ticket offi ce, a Bronco Shop, and much more was fi nished in 2008. In the summer of 2011, the 10,000-square foot Arguinchona Basketball Complex, including locker rooms, a theater-style fi lm room, lounges and study areas for men's and women's basektball, was completed.

Seating capacity for football games increased to 36,387 in the summer of 2012, after phase one of the Boise State football complex and stadium expansion. Phase two added the Bleymaier Football Center, which houses football offi ces, locker rooms, team rooms, training rooms and more was completed for the 2013 football season.

2013 MOUNTAIN WEST MEN'S TENNIS CHAMPIONS2013 WESTERN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONS


From its inception in 1999, the Mountain West has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Progressive in its approach, the MW continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. Now in its 15th year, the MW has been assertive in its involvement with the NCAA governance structure and has taken a leadership role in the overall administration of intercollegiate athletics.

The Mountain West has marked several achievements over its fi rst 14 years of existence, most notably becoming the fi rst to establish a sports television network dedicated solely to an intercollegiate athletic conference (The Mtn.). The Mountain West also was the fi rst to experiment with the coaches’ challenge in the college football instant replay system, and was the fi rst non-automatic-qualifying BCS conference to participate in four BCS bowl games, winning three. In 2011-12, the Mountain West was among the fi rst conferences to implement a league-wide state-of-the-art basketball instant replay system. Additionally, the Mountain West was the fi rst conference to have a member institution with No. 1 overall picks in both the NFL and NBA drafts in the same year (Utah’s Alex Smith and Andrew Bogut, respectively in 2005). With UNLV’s Anthony Bennett claiming the No. 1 pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the Mountain West is one of three conferences to have multiple No. 1 NBA draft selections since 2000. Also, with San Diego State’s Stephen Strasburg earning the No. 1 pick in the 2009 MLB Draft, the Mountain West is one of two conferences to have the No. 1 selection in each of the NFL, NBA and MLB drafts since the MW was founded in 1999.

The Mountain West is noted for its geographic diversity. Some of the most beautiful terrain and landscapes in the nation can be found within Mountain West boundaries, including the majestic Rocky Mountain range, which borders fi ve MW institutions (Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico and Utah State). The high plains of Wyoming (elevation 7,220 feet – the highest Division I campus in the nation) contrast with the desert cities of Las Vegas and Reno, home to UNLV and Nevada, respectively,

WRESTLING

The Mountain West Conference does not sponsor competition for the sport of wrestling. As a result, the Bronco wrestling program is entering its 23rd season as an affi liate member of the Pacifi c-12 Conference for wrestling.

MOUNTAIN WEST...

TERRITORY MAP

while Fresno State, San Diego State and San Jose State add a West coast infl uence with their locations in Central, Southern and Northern California. The inclusion of the Hawai‘i football program extends the Mountain West footprint to the beautiful islands in the Pacifi c Ocean.

The Mountain West was conceived on May 26, 1998, when the presidents of eight institutions — Air Force, BYU, Colorado State, New Mexico, San Diego State, UNLV, Utah and Wyoming — decided to form a new NCAA Division I-A intercollegiate athletic conference. The split from a former 16-team conference re-established continuity and stability among the membership within the new league and signaled the continuation of its tradition-rich, long-standing athletic rivalries. Three of the MW’s eight original members have been conference rivals since the 1960s (New Mexico, Wyoming and Colorado State), while San Diego State (1978) and Air Force (1980) were longtime members as well. UNLV and TCU entered the fold in 1996 and the Rebels continued as one of the original eight institutions that formed the MW in 1999. TCU re-joined the group with its fi rst year of competition in the Mountain West in 2005-06. With conference realignment sweeping the nation in recent years, the MW has been proactive in addressing membership changes. Boise State University joined the Mountain West in 2011-12, followed by Fresno State and the University of Nevada on July 1, 2012. Also on July 1, 2012, the University of Hawai‘i became a football-only member of the Conference. On July 1, 2013, the Mountain West further expanded when San Jose State University and Utah State University joined the Conference, bringing to 11 the number of full-time member institutions and 12 football-playing members.

When the Mountain West offi cially began operations on July 1, 1999, the new league had in place a seven-year contract with ESPN, giving the broadcaster exclusive national television rights to MW football and men’s basketball, and three-year agreements to send the league’s football champion to the Liberty Bowl and a second team to the Las Vegas Bowl. Commissioner Craig Thompson also arranged a third bowl tie-in each of the fi rst three seasons (1999 Motor City, 2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans) before securing a four-year deal with the Emerald Bowl in San Francisco in 2002. Entering the 2013 season, the MW has six contracted bowl affi liations – the Las Vegas Bowl, San Diego Country Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl, Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl, Sheraton Hawai‘i Bowl, Famous Potato Idaho Bowl and Gildan New Mexico Bowl.

An innovator in the postseason bowl structure, the MW engineered many “fi rsts,” as league teams have participated in fi ve inaugural bowl games (2000 Silicon Valley, 2001 New Orleans, 2002 San Francisco ( Emerald), 2005 Poinsettia, 2006 New Mexico), as well as placing the fi rst non-automatic-qualifying BCS team into a BCS bowl game with Utah’s appearance in the 2005 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.

Craig Thompson was the Mountain West Conference’s fi rst employee when he was named Commissioner on Oct. 15, 1998. Ever since, Thompson has navigated the newest NCAA Division I conference through the ever-changing landscape of intercollegiate athletics. As the league enters its 15th season of competition in 2013-14, Thompson continues to create and improve the opportunities for Mountain West institutions and student-athletes to be successful both academically and athletically.

Since the Mountain West opened its doors on January 4, 1999, Thompson has been committed to excellence in intercollegiate athletics, while promoting the academic missions of its member institutions. Progressive in its approach, the MW has fl ourished under the guidance of Commissioner Thompson and continues to cultivate opportunities for student-athletes to compete at the highest level, while fostering academic achievement and sportsmanship. He has been instrumental in negotiating nearly $300 million in television revenue and has been an innovator in the postseason bowl structure as MW teams have participated in fi ve inaugural bowl games.

As conference realignment spread throughout the collegiate landscape over the past few years, Thompson positioned the Mountain West for the future with the additions of Fresno State and the University of Nevada on July 1, 2012, and San Jose State University and Utah State University on July 1, 2013. The University of Hawai‘i also joined the league as a football-only member on July 1, 2012.

His leadership and vision have helped the conference enhance its television revenue and exposure through revolutionary agreements with CBS Sports Network, Comcast and ESPN, including becoming the fi rst major collegiate athletic conference to launch a dedicated sports channel featuring exclusive programming around its athletic programs, as well as conference news. In the summer of 2006, the centerpiece of this historic relationship was realized with the launch of The Mtn. – MountainWest Sports Network – the fi rst sports network dedicated to serving a single collegiate athletic conference.

Thompson has been instrumental in strengthening the position of the Mountain West in the current Bowl Championship Series (BCS) structure. In 2006, he spearheaded an effort that resulted in better access for the MW and more than doubled the annual BCS revenue on an annual basis for non-automatic-qualifying conferences. The MW has been steadfast in its efforts to fi nd a way to make the collegiate postseason football system fair for all universities.

Through its fi rst 14 years of competition, the Mountain West has participated in 56 bowl games, amassing a 32-24 (.571) all-time record in those contests. Over the last nine seasons, the MW has captured the Bowl Challenge Cup four times and owns the second-best win percentage in bowl games among the 10 FBS conferences with a 25-16 mark (.610). The MW claimed the 2010, 2009 and 2007 Challenge Cups after fi nishing each of the three postseasons with 4-1 (.800) records. The league

earned its fi rst Cup after registering a 2-1 mark in bowl competition during the 2004 season. The Mountain West is the only conference to win the Bowl Challenge Cup four times since the award’s inception in 2002.

Prior to his current role, Thompson served as the commissioner of the Sun Belt Conference for nearly eight years and as the only commissioner of the American South Conference prior to the merger of the two leagues in 1991.

During his eight years at the Sun Belt, he spent the majority of his time addressing national trends and challenges in intercollegiate athletics, television exposure, issues relating to conference membership and promoting corporate involvement. In 1997-98, the Sun Belt instituted a comprehensive sportsmanship policy, which earned Thompson designation as a 1998 Sports Ethics Fellow by the Institute for International Sport. Under Thompson’s leadership, the Sun Belt was active in expansion as it continued to strengthen its posture nationally, adding Florida International University and the University of Denver.

Thompson is an integral part of the national landscape in intercollegiate athletics, holding many prestigious NCAA posts. He is currently on the NCAA Football Board of Directors and a member of the BCS administration. Thompson also is a member of the College Football Offi ciating Board of Managers, LLC, and a consultant for the Task Force on Commercial Activity in Intercollegiate Athletics. He also has served on the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee (1995-2000) and was appointed Chair of the committee in July 1999, completing his term September 1, 2000.

Over the tenure of his career, Thompson has been a member of the Executive Committee and the Director’s Cup Committee of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), as well as the governing NCAA Council and various Council subcommittees. He has also played a prominent role in hosting numerous men’s and women’s NCAA postseason basketball tournaments in St. Louis, Atlanta, New Orleans and Denver.

Prior to its merger with the Sun Belt, Thompson served as the fi rst and only commissioner of the American South Conference, which boasted an NCAA national champion in women’s basketball during its fi rst year. The American South also gained immediate national cable television exposure on ESPN and sent numerous teams into NCAA postseason play during the conference’s four-year history.

Preceding his move to commissioner, Thompson served four years as the Director of Communications for the Metro Conference in Atlanta. While at the Metro, he directed the communications operations and administered conference championship events. Thompson originated the Metro Conference Sportswriters and Broadcasters Association, began a weekly radio program with over 300 affi liate stations, and originated a weekly satellite video program involving all Metro institutions. He also took on administrative duties such as coordination of offi cials, scheduling of tournament and regular-season play, and handling of legislative rules interpretations.

Thompson graduated from the University of Minnesota with an undergraduate degree in journalism. Following graduation, he spent two years as assistant sports information director at Kansas State University, earning numerous CoSIDA publication awards. He then spent three years as director of public relations and promotions for the NBA’s Kansas City Kings.

Thompson and his wife, Carla, have a son (Ted) and a daughter (Emma).

COACH SOCHA’S PHILOSOPHYHead strength and conditioning coach Tim Socha’s philosophy is that student-athletes are not only going to train hard, but that they are going to do the correct exercises that help them excel in their sport. The staff uses variation in the training programs to enhance the student-athletes’ ability to adapt and improve. The variation involves both multi-joint and multi-plane training. Flexibility, core strength and proprioceptive training also is included in all programs. Through all of the training, sport specifi city is emphasized, and the one thing that will never be forgotten is that hard work is what wins championships.

All 19 Boise State varsity athletic teams utilize the strength and conditioning center. Each team has a sport-specifi c program designed to help each student-athlete increase his or her athletic potential and decrease the chance of injury. Boise State coaches take pride in the fact that their student-athletes are some of the best conditioned in the nation. The facility is fully equipped with many different machines, as well as various free weight equipment. An additional football strength and conditioning ceter was added to the department with the completion of the Gene Bleymaier Football Complex.


ATHLETIC TRAINING FACILITIESBoise State student-athletes receive top-quality care under the direction of seven full-time certifi ed athletic trainers and fi ve graduate assistant athletic trainers who are also certifi ed. In addition, there is a large number of student trainers serving all of the Broncos’ sports medicine needs. Boise State has four fully equipped training rooms at Bronco Stadium, the Boas Tennis and Soccer Complex, the Bleymaier Football Center, and at Taco Bell Arena for the convenience of its student-athletes.

DR. ROBERT W. KUSTRA, Boise State President

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENTUNIVERSITY PRESIDENT

In Dr. Bob Kustra’s 10 years as president, Boise State University has grown to 22,000 students with over 3,700 graduates a year.

While the majority of our students hail from Idaho, current enrollment is characterized by substantial increases in out of state and international students as well as higher entering grade point averages than a decade ago. About 95 percent of new freshmen attend as full-time students compared to just 68 percent in 2001.

Our metropolitan research campus has expanded considerably in Dr. Kustra’s tenure and now boasts state-of-the art multidisciplinary buildings, high-tech classrooms, clean rooms and laboratories and cutting-edge facilities for the arts, business and economics, engineering, science, public policy and more. The university has more than doubled its graduate off erings and has become the fastest-growing research enterprise in Idaho.

Dr. Kustra’s administration has also been marked by an emphasis on upgrading admissions standards to the highest of all Idaho’s public universities, improving the undergraduate experience and nurturing a vibrant campus life. He led the fi rst comprehensive campaign in university history, Destination Distinction, besting the goal of $185 million in private support for faculty, student scholarships and campus infrastructure. He has also been instrumental in the fundraising drive to expand Bronco Stadium and the launch of a new scholarship campaign.

Before coming to Idaho, Dr. Kustra had a long and distinguished career in public service in Illinois, serving two terms as lieutenant governor, and 10 years in the Illinois legislature, where he served in leadership. He chaired the Illinois Board of Higher Education, responsible for funding and oversight of the state’s nine public universities.

He served as president of the Midwestern Higher Education Commission and of Eastern Kentucky University. He has held faculty positions at Northwestern University, the University of Illinois-Chicago, Loyola University of Chicago and the University of Illinois- Springfi eld.

Dr. Kustra was a member of the NCAA Division I board of directors and executive committee and served on the Presidential Task Force on the Future of Intercollegiate Athletics. He also served as a Commissioner of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education. He has been inducted into the Idaho Hall of Fame and was named the Most Infl uential Person in the Boise valley by The Idaho Statesman.

Each week, Dr. Kustra features lively conversations with some of the nation’s leading authors about issues and ideas that matter today on his radio show, Reader’s Corner, which airs weekly on Boise State’s NPR station.

He holds degrees from Benedictine College and Southern Illinois University, and a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He and his wife, Kathy, have two grown children, three grandsons, and treasure the memory of their son, Steve.

Several teams have advanced to NCAA postseason play, including men's basketball, women's gymnastics, men's tennis, wrestling and men's and women's track and fi eld.

The 2012 football season set a season ticket sales record and men's basketball attendance increased more than 38 percent for the 2012-13 season. Additionally, the department successfully negotiated future home-and-home football games with Florida State University, the University of Virginia and Oklahoma State University.

The 2013-14 academic year will see new changes to the Bronco Athletic Association, including a new priority point system that will reward season ticket holders and fi nancial gifts to the athletics department. Coyle also implemented a new strategic plan for the department - centered on developing student-athletes to be leaders academically, athletically and in the community.

He came to Boise State from the University of Kentucky, where he served as the Deputy Director of Athletics.

In that role, he oversaw the day-to-day operations of an $83 million, self-suffi cient, 22-sport athletics department. He served as the sport administrator for men's basketball and volleyball, and also handled the management of scheduling contracts for football and men's basketball.

While at Kentucky, fundraising reached record levels in annual seat donations and capital pledges, improving facilities for multiple programs, including football, men's and women's basketball, men's and women's soccer, volleyball, gymnastics, men's and women's track and fi eld, softball, baseball and rifl e.

During his time at Kentucky, the athletics department's operating budget increased $28 million. Additionally, Coyle oversaw the day-to-day management of the multi-media rights agreement with IMG College, valued at more than $78 million.

Coyle joined the University of Kentucky from the University of Minnesota, where he served nearly four years in a number of capacities, most recently as Associate Athletics Director for External Relations. In this role, he oversaw the corporate sponsorship and suite sales of Gopher Sports Properties, marketing and promotions, athletics communications, video services, the ticket offi ce, licensing and gophersports.com.

As a member of Minnesota's executive management team, Coyle was responsible for assisting with the supervision of the day-to-day operations of the department, including creating and implementing the athletics budget, hiring coaches, administrators and staff .

Prior to joining Minnesota, Coyle was the Vice President of the Collegiate Sports Division at Host Communications, Inc. Coyle helped manage multi-media marketing rights agreements with several Division I universities and conferences, including the University of Kentucky, the University of Texas, Florida State University, the University of Tennessee, the University of Notre Dame and the Southeastern Conference.

In addition, Coyle gained valuable experience in ticket operations at Florida State University and the University of Miami (Fla.).
