  • THE MEET: No. 29 Boise State will host Air Force on Friday, Feb. 28 at 7 p.m. MT in ExtraMile Arena. This marks the Broncos' last conference meet of the season.
  • RING HUNTING: Boise State holds a 4-1 conference record this season, earning it at least a share of the Mountain West regular season championship. If the Broncos can secure a win or tie on Friday, the team will be named outright champions.
  • SCOUTING THE FALCONS: Air Force enters the meet with an overall record of 5-5 and a 2-2 conference record. This marks the second time this season that the Broncos will face the Falcons after recording a 195.975-194.775 win in USAFA, Colo., on Feb. 9. Boise State looks to continue its nine-meet win streak and improve the all-time record to 9-1 over the Falcons.
  • IN THE RANKINGS: Boise State is No. 29 in the RoadToNationals team rankings with an NQS score of 195.800, improving that score by almost two tenths. The Broncos are No. 20 in the bars rankings, boasting a 49.130 NQS score, the highest of any non-power 4 opponent. The team is also in the beam rankings at No. 23 with an NQS score of 48.985.
  • BARS QUEEN: Emily Lopez is tied for 22nd nationally in the RoadToNationals individual rankings with an NQS score of 9.880. She ranks first in the Mountain West and fourth in the west region.
  • EVENT CHAMPION: Alyssa Vulaj was named the vault champion at the meet against Utah State (Feb. 21), tying her season-best of 9.825. The senior now has four titles on the apparatus and brought her career total to eight.
  • SPECIALIST OF THE WEEK: Vulaj picked up her second Mountain West weekly honor of the season and of her career, both on vault.
  • HOME SWEET HOME: Boise State is the only team in the Mountain West undefeated at home. The Broncos boast a 3-0 home record on the season.
  • UP AND UP: The Broncos matched their season-high on floor with a 49.150. This also ties for the highest floor score in the Mountain West this season, set by Boise State on Feb. 10.
  • RECORD WATCH: Lopez earned her 17th-career bars win at the quad meet in San Jose (Jan. 26), putting her in sole possession of third all-time for bars victories in program history. She now sits behind Emily Mulenhaupt (2018-22) in first with 22 wins and Lindsay Ward (2004-08) in second with 20.
  • PRESEASON EXPECTATIONS: Boise State came in at No. 33 in the 2025 Women's Collegiate Gymnastics Association (WCGA) Preseason Poll, the 14th time since 2010 that the Broncos have earned a preseason national ranking. The Blue and Orange received 341 points and were the only team in the Mountain West to place in the top 36.
