THIS WEEK'S PROMOTION

LAST TIME OUT
Last weekend, the Blue and Orange were on the road for a lone contest at Utah State. The Broncos, who trailed 3-0, staged a strong comeback attempt against the Aggies before coming up just short. The match came down to a tightly contested three-set match to decide it as Utah State held on for the 4-3 win. The Broncos were led by Jan Lucca Marquardt, Caden Moortgat and Ryo Minakata, who all rallied from a set down to win their singles matches in three sets, pulling Boise State within one of victory.Â
SAN DIEGO STATE MATCH PREVIEW
This encounter will be the 22nd meeting in the all-time series in which the Broncos currently hold a slim 11-10 advantage, including a 4-0 win last year at San Diego. The Aztecs are entering the week with a 6-10 overall mark and a 2-2 record in league play. They split last weekend at home, defeating Utah State 4-3 before falling 4-1 to New Mexico. Â
