COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Boise State gymnastics was selected to finish first in the Mountain West Preseason Coaches' Poll, the conference announced Tuesday.

The Blue and Orange received three first-place votes with 30 points, finishing above San Jose State (24), Utah State (18) and Air Force (12).

The Broncos will take part in the inaugural Mountain West women's gymnastics season.

"We cannot wait for the season to begin," said head coach Tina Bird. "It is a thrill to be ranked first in the Mountain West preseason poll and we are looking forward to this inaugural year!"
