2009-10 Season Preview

After a very successful 2008-09 tennis season the Boise State women are on track to very similar successes. With four returners and two newcomers on their 2008-09 squad, the Broncos have a very promising chance of continuing their success from last season as well as building on top of it with the help and talent of the newcomers.

“We have to keep building on our success that we’ve had on and off the court the last four years,” explains head coach Mark Tichenor. “Last year, beating Alabama was the biggest win in our program’s history and now we have to build on that.” The Broncos have just the talent to go further than ever this season with the return of two solid seniors, Pichittra Thongdach and Bianca Jochimsen, to lead the way. With the addition of junior Lauren Megale and sophomore Rocio Frej, who were key contributors last season as well as newcomers junior Stephanie Jasper and freshman Marlena Pietzuch, the Broncos put together one of their most talented squads ever. With such a talented squad prepping for the 2009-10 season, the Broncos look to be a possible threat to Western Athletic Conference foe Fresno State and their seven-year conference champion streak. “We were so close to beating Fresno State last season at the WAC,” said Tichenor, “and every year we keep knocking on the door. Hopefully, soon we’ll get let in that door. In order to do that we have to want more and want the growth, so we have to keep pushing and work hard for those goals.” What better way to prepare a team for a chance to upset Fresno State, than to plan a very tough schedule against nationally ranked opponents nationwide? The Broncos will play the “toughest schedule they’ve ever had” according to Tichenor, including matches against 13 teams who finished in the top-75 last season. The Broncos, who finished last season ranked No. 34 in the nation, have slated a match at Stanford (finished the 2009 season at No. 13) in mid-February, North Carolina (#20) at the ITA National Team Indoor First Round in January as well as the possibility to play Notre Dame (#5) in the ITA National Team Indoor Second Round on February 1. Fresno State,

who finished No. 16 last season, is also on the Broncos’ regular season slate with an April 17 match in Boise, Idaho.

as the No. 1 doubles team who was ranked nationally for much of the season.

“This will be so incredible to play at Stanford this year,” explained Tichenor. “They are arguably one of the greatest alltime women’s tennis programs. Also, to play North Carolina and Notre Dame will be huge as well as a great challenge. Nearly every team on our schedule this season finished as a top-75 ranked team last season.”

“Lauren is also a great player in both singles and doubles,” explained Tichenor. “She was one of our key factors in the huge win over Alabama last season. She has got the whole package and has worked really hard over the summer so the team, as well as Lauren, expect great things this season.”

The list of additional top-75 finishers that the Broncos will face this season include Denver (ranked 39th at the end of last season), UC Irvine (57th), San Diego (60th), Colorado (61st), Utah (63rd), BYU (64th), Nevada (65th), Marshall (67th) and Oregon (71st). Looking to lead the Broncos against these tough opponents will be seniors Bianca Jochimsen and Pichittra Thongdach. Jochimsen has been a member of the Bronco squad the longest, joining the team in the fall of 2006. Last season, she played primarily at the No. 3 singles spot as well as the No. 3 doubles. “Bianca has been a huge part of our program since she stepped onto campus,” said Tichenor. “She is a great role model as an outstanding player as well as strong studentathlete. She brings the whole package to our team. She stayed in Boise over the summer to train and we, along with herself, are expecting big things from her this season.” Thongdach will return as the team’s top player after playing in the No. 1 singles and No. 1 doubles spots the last two seasons. “Pichittra is the one player who has helped elevate our team to a whole other level,” said Tichenor. “She is a great singles and doubles player and could arguably beat anyone in the country in singles or doubles at any time. This season our biggest challenge to her is to be a big leader both on and off the court because that’s where we’ll need her.” Also returning to the team will be junior Lauren Megale for her second season as a Bronco. Last season, Megale joined the Broncos after playing for Arizona State her freshman season. In her first season as a Bronco she immediately earned the role of No. 2 singles player as well as joining Thongdach

Joining the Broncos as a transfer from Montana State, junior Stephanie Jasper brings a lot of new talent to the team. “Stephanie’s transfer filled an immediate need for us,” said Tichenor. “She has dual match experience, unlike a freshman, but still doesn’t have that NCAA accomplishment on her resume’, making her have much more want for that goal than any other upperclassman. The team needs someone with that burning desire to get to where the team was last year and even further.” The fourth and youngest returner for the Broncos is sophomore Rocio Frej who played primarily in the No. 6 singles and No. 3 doubles positions for the team last season. “Rocio is the girl you want on the court if the match is tied 3-3,” explained Tichenor. “She can pull through in those clutch matches. She may be one of the players that dictate how well the team does this season. She has played unbelievably well this fall and could make a big impact in both singles and doubles this season.” Joining the Broncos as a true freshman, Marlena Pietzuch rounds out the six-person squad for the 2009-10 season. “We will have big expectations from Marlena,” said Tichenor. “She has come in and worked really hard and is only getting better every week. She is learning and observing everything and we will need her to convert that into her play to make a big impact in singles and doubles play.” The Broncos have seven fall tournaments before beginning their 2010 dual season on Jan. 23 against Montana and Montana State. They have 10 home matches scheduled as well as 15 away matches this season with the 2010 WAC Championships held April 30-May 2 in Fresno, Calif.

Head Coach Mark Tichenor

Mark Tichenor

Head Coach • 11th Season • 181-65 (.736) Northeast Louisiana, 1988 Mark Tichenor enters his 11th season as head coach at Boise State, turning the women’s tennis program into a yearly NCAA national team qualifier and a top program in the Western Athletic Conference. In his ten years at the helm, Tichenor has garnered 181 wins and 65 losses (.736) as well as nine winning seasons and five seasons with 20 or more wins. He has also led his team to four NCAA national tournament bids, including three straight. In 2009 the Broncos advanced to the NCAA Second Round, the furthest the program has ever advanced.

The Broncos reached the NCAA Championships in three-straight years (2007-09) as well as reaching four-straight WAC championships matches (2006-09), making the Broncos one of the perennial forces in the WAC. He has also coached nine players to the All-WAC team in the past three years. In 2009 he led the Broncos to one of their most successful seasons in school history, advancing to the NCAA Second Round and earning the second-best school record in school history (24-5). He also helped his players to earn numerous awards throughout the season, including the first-ever individual honor in the WAC for a Bronco with Vivien Silfany earning WAC Newcomer

When Tichenor took over the Bronco program in the Fall of 1999 Boise State had just finished seventh in the Big West Tournament. In his first season, the Broncos improved to third in the conference, and in 2001 the Broncos captured the Big West Championship en route to competing in the first round of the NCAA tournament. In 2002, Tichenor guided the Broncos through their first season in the Western Athletic Conference, finishing third with an overall record of 21-4. His success continued through the next three years as the Broncos put together three more winning seasons and had 11 players named to the All-WAC team. The 2006 Bronco women posted the best record in school history (22-4), and made their first-ever trip to the WAC championship match. Tichenor’s success in the 2006 season, as well as placing three more women on the All-WAC team, earned him the Central Region Coach of the Year Award for the first time in his career.

Tichenor came to Boise State after serving as the head men’s and women’s tennis coach at Northern Arizona University from 1993-99. While at NAU, Tichenor led the Lumberjacks to three women’s Big Sky Championships (1997, 1998, and 1999) and one men’s conference title (1997) as well winning four Big Sky Conference Coach of the Year Awards (1997 – men and women, 1998 and 1999). Prior to his position at NAU, Tichenor coached at his alma mater, Northeast Louisiana (now the University of Louisiana-Monroe), where he led his team to six Southland Conference Championship in seven years and won five Southland Conference Coach of the Year awards (1987, 1988, 1990, 1992, and 1993). Tichenor is a graduate of Northeast Louisiana where he received his Master’s of Education in 1988, his bachelor’s in 1985, and was a four-year letterwinner on the tennis team. As a member of the tennis team, he won the Southland Conference Singles Championship in 1984. He was also voted his team’s MVP.

Athletic Facilities

Bronco Stadium, Stueckle sky center & Ed Jacoby Track

In an effort to continue the climb in competition, Boise State has outlined a plan to improve the infrastructure and financial 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 11 years Boise State’s growth has led to the addition of women’s soccer in 1998. In 2006-07 women’s swimming & diving joined the family followed by softball in 2008-09. In recent years Boise State has built four competition facilities: the state-of-the-art Appleton Outdoor Tennis Center (2002), the Bronco Soccer and Tennis Complex (2003), Jacksons Indoor Track (2003 - a joint effort with the city of Nampa) and the Mountain Cove Softball Complex (2008). 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 significant renovation with the replacement of the bubbles. The latest project is the Stueckle Sky Center expansion to Bronco Stadium. The stadium project includes a new press box, luxury suites, banquet hall, new ticket office, a Bronco Shop, and much more. Seating capacity for football games will increase to approximately 32,000.

Caven-Williams sports complex

Other future projects include a new 10,000-square foot locker room facility and lounges for the men's and women's basketball teams; a new outdoor track stadium and practice area; a new Peterson PRECO Learning Center; a new home for the World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame; and new women’s sports facilities, including competition venues for softball.

Conference Affiliations

The Western Athletic Conference... In its 47th year, the Western Athletic Conference continues to evolve and features some of the nation’s best intercollegiate competition. One thing that remains unchanged is the persistent nature of the nine schools in the WAC to advance their programs to contend at the top levels of the NCAA. The WAC provides its student-athletes the chance to travel to scenic destinations and gain exposure in some of the nation’s most diverse markets. In addition, the WAC’s student-athletes work to achieve the highest levels of success with the academic support of their respective institutions. The WAC has experienced tremendous success. Over the past six years, it has won 54.5 percent of its bowl games, the third best winning percentage of any conference in the

nation. In the past six seasons, the WAC has sent a total of 22 teams to bowl games (12-10). Boise State has won 76 games since joining the conference, the most in the nation during that time span (2001-07). For the second year in a row, the WAC sent a team to a BCS bowl game as Hawai‘i earned a Nokia Sugar Bowl bid this past season following Boise State’s unforgettable victory in the 2007 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. In men’s basketball, the WAC has sent at least two teams to the NCAA Tournament in 23 of the past 25 seasons. Every current school in the WAC has competed in the NCAA Tournament since 1990. In women’s sports, Fresno State softball has competed in every NCAA Tournament ever held while Louisiana Tech basketball has played in all but two. The WAC is the sixth oldest among the

nation’s 11 Division I-A conferences. Its history traces back to July 27, 1962, when the original six-team league of Arizona, Arizona State, Brigham Young, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming began competition. B e f o r e 1 9 9 0 , t h e WA C s p o n s o r e d championships only in men’s sports. However, a merger with the High Country Athletic Conference formed a single conference under one administrative structure, and the 1990-91 athletic year was the first in which both men and women competed under the WAC name. Currently the WAC membership consists of Hawai’i which joined in 1979, Fresno State (1992), San Jose State (1996), Nevada (2000), Boise State and Louisiana Tech (2001), and Idaho, New Mexico State and Utah State (2005). Presently, the WAC crowns team and individual champions in 19 sports – eight men’s and 11 women’s. For the men, there are championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, tennis, indoor track and field and outdoor track and field. Championships for women are held in basketball, cross country, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field and volleyball. The WAC office has been located in the Denver area since the conference’s inception with the exception of a two-year stay in Phoenix from 1964-66.

In 1995-96, the WAC signed an exclusive multi-year agreement with ESPN for the unprecedented live telecasts of basketball and football. Included in that deal was a women’s basketball contract, the first in conference history. Currently, a second agreement with ESPN and ABC has resulted in 80 football games being televised over the past five years. Benson came to the WAC after four successful years as the commissioner of the Mid-American Conference. There, he implemented several innovative projects and was instrumental in the formation of the Las Vegas Bowl. Prior to taking the reins of the MAC, Benson served on the NCAA staff for more than four years where he was the director of NCAA championships. Benson joined the NCAA staff in January of 1986 as a compliance representative and was appointed assistant director of championships in June 1987. He was promoted to director of championships in 1988. In that position, Benson actively supervised eight assistant directors in their administration of 68 NCAA championships. A native of the state of Washington, Benson graduated from high school in Pullman in 1970, attended Spokane Falls Community College and then received a bachelor of science degree in physical education from Boise State University in 1975. He has also completed coursework toward his master’s degree in athletics administration at the University of Utah. Benson played baseball at both Spokane Falls Community College and Boise State University before serving as the baseball coach at Fort Steilacoom Community College in Tacoma, Wash., for eight years and as the director of athletics at Fort Steilacoom from 1979-84. From 1984-86, he was an assistant baseball coach and an administrative assistant in the athletic department at Utah. He received the Distinguished Alumni Award from Boise State in April of 2006. Benson was born on December 1, 1951 and has one daughter, Jessie, 17.

Conference Affiliations

When Karl Benson was named the fifth commissioner in the history of the Western Athletic Conference on April 20, 1994, he brought with him a wealth of experience and a personal history of success to the position. Since that time, Benson not only has laid a strong foundation for the WAC’s future, he also steered the conference through unsettled times during the late 1990s and again a few years later when the defection of member institutions threatened the WAC. Through his leadership and vision, it didn’t take long for the WAC to regain its place among the nation’s top Division I


Strength & Conditioning

Coach Socha’s Philosophy Head 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 specificity 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-specific 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.

In June 2008 Bleymaier received the Astro Turf Athletic Director of the Year Award at the national athletic directors’ conference in Dallas. He currently is the Western Athletic Conference’s representative to the Bowl Championship Series. In 1997 Bleymaier led the effort to create the Humanitarian Bowl – now called the Roady’s Humanitarian Bowl – and he continues to serve on the board of directors for the annual postseason football game. He served a four-year term as the WAC representative on the NCAA Division I Management Council and is also past president and vice president of the NCAA I-AA Athletic Directors’ Association. He is also a member of the Boise-based World Sports Humanitarian Hall of Fame board of directors. Under Bleymaier’s guidance, Boise State’s

football program has grown spectacularly and gained national attention since it joined the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly I-A) ranks in 1996. In just over a decade competing at the highest collegiate level, Boise State football has put itself on the national map with winning records, league championships, national rankings and bowl victories in front of a national audience. Among the nation’s FBS programs, Boise State has the best overall record in the last 10 years (108-20, 84.3 percent), the best winning percentage for conference games the past 10 years (705, 93.3 percent), and has been the highestscoring team in the nation since 2000 (41.16 points per game). In 1986 Bleymaier was responsible for the installation of the artificial blue turf in Bronco Stadium, which has become one of the most recognizable sports venues in America and the city of Boise’s most famous landmark. In 1996 he led Boise State’s move to FBS as a member of the Big West Conference, and in 2001 he guided the Bronco Athletic Department’s transfer to its current membership in the WAC. In its first eight years in the WAC, the Bronco football team has won six league championships and finished second twice. In 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2008 Boise State went 8-0 in conference play. The Broncos have won a total of 23 league championships in all sports since joining the WAC. Prior to joining the WAC, Boise State won 15 team titles overall while it was a member of the Big West Conference from 1996-2001, and 33 overall league championships in the Big Sky Conference from 1982-1995. The Broncos also captured 13 Big Sky all-sport championships. Boise State sponsors 19 intercollegiate sports – eight for men and 11 for women. All teams compete in the WAC with the exception of wrestling (Pac-10). The 2008-09 athletic season was highlighted by six teams completing their seasons ranked in the top 25 of their respective sports and Boise State finishing the year with its highest ever finish in the Learfield Sports Director’s Cup at 49th. Football led the way capturing its sixth WAC title in seven years and finished the season

ranked 11th in the nation by the Associated Press with an overall record of 12-1. Wrestling won its second straight Pac-10 championship before placing 12th at the NCAA National Championships. The Broncos won their other WAC team titles in men’s indoor track and field, gymnastics and men’s tennis (regular season). Boise State also sent several other teams to regional and national post-season competition highlighted by the men’s tennis team advancing to the round of 16 at the NCAA National Tournament for the first time in over 10 years. Individually, another chapter was added to the Bronco history book when Eleni Kafourou became the first female to win a national championship when she finished first in the women’s triple jump at the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships. Conference wise Boise State student-athletes won 23 league championships. Behind Bleymaier’s guidance, Boise State student-athletes have also excelled in the classroom. During the 2008-09 academic year, 136 Bronco student-athletes received conference all-academic honors. Following the spring 2009 semester, Bronco studentathletes set an all-time single semester gradepoint-average mark at 3.00 and an all-time cumulative GPA at 3.04, marking the fourth straight semester the Boise State studentathlete cumulative GPA has been over 3.00. A record 65 percent of all student-athletes earned a 3.0 or better GPA last year. In May of 2009, the NCAA announced its multi-year academic performance rates (APR) and Boise State has the highest rates in the WAC for the sports of football, men’s basketball, men’s tennis (a perfect 1000 score), outdoor track and field, and men’s cross country – the most No. 1 rankings of any WAC school. The football and men’s basketball teams led the WAC for the third straight year. Moreover, the athletic program’s overall APR has improved every year. While Boise State has enjoyed unprecedented success on the playing fields, courts and in the classroom, it has also drastically improved its facilities under Bleymaier’s direction. In August of 2008 the

most expensive capital project in the history of Bronco athletics opened with the $36 million Stueckle Sky Center which includes a stateof-the-art press box, suites, loge boxes and club seats. On August 1, 2009 Boise State officially acquired control of the 15.5-acre East Junior High School site from the Boise School District with plans to build future athletic facilities there. Located just northeast of the main campus, the first project planned will be to move Ed Jacoby Track from Bronco Stadium and build a new track and field facility. The most recent facility was unveiled this past year with the opening of the Mountain Cove Softball Field. In a cooperative effort with the Boise School District, the Bronco athletic department renovated the complex adding a press box, more seating, a scoreboard, batting cages and replacing the field. In 2006, Boise State opened the CavenWilliams Sports Complex, which is a $9.5 million indoor practice facility that includes a full size football field and the Keith and Catherine Stein Band Hall. Other capital projects completed during Bleymaier’s tenure include the Boas Tennis/ Soccer Center, a 1997 expansion of Bronco Stadium, the Allen Noble Hall of Fame Gallery, the Williams Plaza, the Peterson-Preco Learning Center, the Appleton Outdoor Tennis Center, the Jackson Indoor Track, the Idaho Sports Medicine Institute, the Bronco Football Center, the gymnastics room expansion, the Simplot Center for Athletic Excellence, the Fedrizzi Fitness Center expansion, and an expansion of the Nicholson-Yanke Center. Bleymaier served as an assistant athletic director at UCLA prior to coming to Boise State. A member of the California Bar Association and a graduate of the Loyola Law School, Bleymaier received his bachelor’s degree from UCLA. Bleymaier lettered in football and was named to the All-Pac 8 Conference third team as a tight end for the Bruins. He was the recipient of the UCLA Outstanding Senior Award and was active in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Bleymaier graduated from Borah High School in Boise. Bleymaier and his wife, Danell, have four children – Maribeth, Joe, Claire and Tom.
