MILITARY RESERVE This 460 acre natural area is named for Fort Boise and the associated military maneuvers that were performed here between the 1860’s and 1940’s. The area served several purposes, including the staging of gunnery practice into the hills above. After the military halted its operations, the community recognized the importance of this area and the Boise Front for recreation and wildlife values. Boise City acquired title to the property from the Federal government for “recreation and public purposes”. It is managed as a recreation and wildlife reserve, with human activities allowed in ways that do not detract from the natural values.

Camelsback/Hulls Gulch Reserve These two city reserves are popular and busy. Hulls Gulch Reserve was spared from development in the early 1990’s with the help of concerned citizens and local and federal funding. With Hulls Creek as the back bone, wildlife fi nd the area to their liking as well. The ponds at the end of 9th St. were designed for fl ood control but also are a magnet for birds and other wildlife. The large pond is fenced to give the wildlife an area that is undisturbed by people and pets. Camels Back is undergoing a “face lift” with restoration efforts. Nearly 3 miles of trail are available on the hill while an effort is underway to close and rehabilitate the steep hill climbs that have been eroding. The two rare plants found in the reserve are also being protected by these efforts.

CASTLE ROCK AND TABLE ROCK RESERVES

These two geological landmarks located near the Old Idaho Penitentiary are steeped in history and beauty. Native Americans consider this area sacred. Native plant populations are found clinging to the slopes around Table Rock, providing a glimpse of what the entire Boise Front may have looked like at one time. Old quarry roads and the Table Rock tram route are now used as trails that provide a wide range of experiences and trail diffi culties. The views aren’t half bad either.

UPPER 8TH STREET TRAILSThe network of trails in the upper 8th Street area were built specifi cally for Off Highway Vehicles, (OHV’s) with access from the 8th Street Parking lot. The Hulls Gulch Interpretive Trail is in this area as well and is a Pedestrian Only trail. With this mix of trail uses it is important to respect others and share the trails.

Entering their fi rst season in the Mountain West, the Boise State cross country teams look to bridge their recent successes from the Western Athletic Conference to their new conference affi liate. The Bronco men, who won the 2010 WAC team championship, and the Bronco women begin their 2011 journey on Saturday, Sept. 10 at the fourth annual Roger Curran Invitational, one of three meets run in the Treasure Valley.

The second local meet, the Bob Firman Invitational, will be run just two weeks later on Saturday, Sept. 24, followed by the Coyote Invitational hosted by College of Idaho on Oct. 7. Although there are a handful of local meets, the Broncos add two regular season road meets that are critical to their schedule.

Splitting the squad on Sept. 24, assistant coach for cross country and distance, Brad Wick, will take the teams’ top runners to the Roy Griak Invitational in St. Paul, Minn., while the remainder of the Broncos stay to

compete in the local favorite, Bob Firman Invitational. The second and fi nal regular season road trip for the orange and blue falls on Oct. 15, when they head to Sunnyvale, Calif., to race at the Santa Clara Bronco Invitational.

“Our team will be really focused on the Roy Griak and Santa Clara Invites this year,” said Wick. “They are two big meets to get ready for and will help us the most in preparing for the post-season.”

Looking at the post-season schedule, Boise State heads to Fort Collins, Colo., for the 2011 Mountain West Championships on Oct. 29, while penciling in trips to Palo Alto, Calif., for the 2011 NCAA West Regional Championships on Nov. 12 and Terre Haute, Ind., for the NCAA National Championships on Nov. 21.

Carrying the responsibility of ongoing success for the programs are very

young men’s and women’s teams. The men feature two sophomores and 11 freshmen, while the women boast one senior, four juniors, 19 sophomores and 11 freshmen.

“Both of our teams are really young this year,” said Wick. “Although it is a rebuilding year, we still have a lot of talent and will do well. We are further along as a team than we were a year ago, despite the youth.”

For the men, Wick and head coach for track and fi eld and cross country coach J.W. Hardy both expect returners Allan Schroeder and Drew O’donoghue-McDonald to lead the pack.

“Allan and Drew both had really great training summers and we expect them to be the team leaders,” said Wick.

Looking to make an immediate impact in the top-seven are freshmen Vince Hamilton, John Robinson and Jared Lehning who had a good showing at the team’s preseason time trial.

For the women, Emma Bates looks to lead the way, returning as the 2010 WAC Freshman of the Year. Helping in a leadership role will be the lone senior Melody Braden who will give experience to the young team. Included in the leadership role will be the junior class who will combine with a talented sophomore class.

“We have six of our top-seven returning from last season,” said Wick. “We should be much improved with that year of experience under our belts.”

Young returners include Marisa VanderMalle, who redshirted her freshman season but promises to be a top-seven contender. Tessa Murray, Alyssa Boucher and Sarah Bisterfeldt were regulars in the lineup in 2010 and

return stronger for their sophomore campaigns. Taryn Treadway and Rici Morrill look to move into the top-seven spots after fl oating just outside in 2010.

“Taryn and Rici have made great improvements over the summer,” said Wick. “They are both defi nitely contenders for the top-seven this season.”

Wick and Hardy are also excited about a talented group of 11 freshmen women who are joining the roster this season.

“We have a great freshman class who is ahead of where our 2010 freshman class was last season,” said Wick. “It will make our team that much stronger. I am particularly impressed with Hayley Gregoire who will be looking to make the travel squad.”

With a challenging road schedule and a handful of meets in the Treasure Valley, the Broncos are hopeful of another successful season. Overall the men’s and women’s teams have put in hard work over the summer to return at a higher level for the 2011 season.

“With all their hard off-season training, we really feel the bar has been raised for both programs this season,” said Wick.

championship records.

Prior to taking over the head coaching position at NAU, Hardy was an assistant for the Lumberjackso for seven seasons. He guided student- athletes to over 50 individual conference championship titles, eight relay titles, 12 NCAA national qualifying marks, eight NCAA regional qualifying marks, nine school records, two Big Sky Conference records, and over 100 all-conference honors.

Besides 2008 Olympian Lopez Lomong, the most notable athletes under Hardy’s tutelage include Olympians Victor Castillo and Samantha George, Rudolph Drummond, Terrance Johnson, Daryl Wonsey, Vytautas Kancleris, Landon Benson, Liza Conteh, and Bubba Edmonds, who competed in the 2008 Olympic trials in the decathlon. Castillo competed for Venezuela in the 2004 Olympic Games after posting the third-best mark in the world that year in the long jump with a leap of 27-3. Castillo also competed at the 2003 World Championships in Paris fi nishing 25th, and was third in the long jump at the 2003 Pan American Games.

Drummond (hurdles), Wonsey (hurdles), Kancleris (hurdles), Johnson (sprints), Benson (sprints), Conteh (jumps), and Edmonds (hurdles) also reaped the benefi ts of Hardy’s expertise as each attained provisional or automatic qualifying marks for the NCAA Championships in their respective events as NAU student-athletes.

Hardy’s Lumberjack teams also excelled in the classroom, with over 60 student-athletes receiving All-Big Sky academic awards and his program averaging over a 3.0 grade-point-average (GPA).

Prior to his arrival at NAU, Hardy coached the sprints and horizontal jumps at Alhambra High School. During his three years at Alhambra, the team won two division titles, fi nished second at the Arizona state championships and had fi ve athletes receive all-state honors. Hardy also coached local football standout, Eric Johnson, to a state long jump title as

Former Lumberjacks Francis St. Paul and Clarence Moore also add to Hardy’s list of student-athletes who built careers in the NFL. Both men contributed to conference performances in the sprints during their collegiate careers. St. Paul provided speed and versatility in the efforts of the St. Louis Rams 2001 Super Bowl Championship. Moore played four seasons with the Baltimore Ravens after being drafted by the team in the sixth round in 2004.

As a student-athlete, Hardy was a top NAU sprinter from 1989-93 under former head coachRon Mann. He was a three-time NCAA All-American and a seven-time conference champion. Hardy is also a member of two relay teams that still hold Big Sky conference records. In 1991 his teams set both indoor and outdoor records in the 4x400 with times of 3:06.06 and 3:04.77, respectively. Hardy was also an individual conference champion in the 400-meter dash as well as a two-time champion as a member of the 4x100-meter relay team. During the four years Hardy competed at NAU, the team won seven of eight possible team titles.

Hardy earned his bachelor’s degree from Northern Arizona in advertising in 1993. He and his wife have a 20-year old daughter, Kennedy who is attending the University of Arizona, and a seven-year old son, Traevin.

The 2010 Boise State cross country season was one for the record books with the men’s team capturing the Western Athletic Conference Championship for the fi rst time in school history and the women running at the NCAA West Regional for only the fourth time ever as a team. Individual honors topped the list as well with Emma Bates earning the WAC Freshman of the Year title after her third-place fi nish at the WAC Championships. Jeff Howard followed suit a week later being named to the USTFCCCA All-Region team after his 17th-place fi nish at the west regional.

With the winning of the WAC title, came honors for the Bronco coaching staff as head coach J.W. Hardy earned the WAC Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year honor.

Individually the Broncos landed Sawyer Bosch on the All-WAC First-Team, while Allan Schroeder, Drew O’donoghue-McDonald and Howard were on the second-team. For the women, Bates was named to the fi rst team while fellow freshman, Alyssa Boucher was named to the second-team.

Setting up for a successful post-season, the Broncos earned six WAC Athlete of the Week honors during the regular season. In the fi rst week of competition (Sept. 6-12), the honors were swept by freshmen O’donoghue-McDonald on the men’s side and Bates on the women’s side. A week later (Sept. 13-19) Bates repeated with her second honor. In October (13-19) Howard picked up his fi rst honor of the season, while Scott Foley and Kate Jette swept the honors a week later (Oct. 20-26).

As a team, Boise State won two meets on the men’s side and one for the women. Both teams captured the season opener NNU Roger Curran Invitational, while the men added the WAC title late in the season.

Individually the men earned nine top-10 fi nishes on the season, while the women earned seven. O’donoghue-McDonald led the men’s team with a win at the NNU Roger Curran Invitational (Sept. 11), while Bosch, Brad Bogdan, Foley and Howard all fi nished within the top-10. Howard went on to place second at the Santa Clara Invitational (Oct. 16), as well as fi nishing as the top runner at the Roy Griak Invitational (16th) and NCAA West Regional (17th). Bosch, Schroeder and O’donoghue-McDonald earned top-10 fi nishes at the WAC Championships.
