Page 10: 2013-14 Boise State Women's Golf Yearbook

Nicole Bird is in her seventh season as the head coach of the Boise State women’s golf team, the longest-tenured head coach since the program’s inaugural season in 1992-93.

Since she took over in 2007-08, Bird has steadily orchestrated a turnaround from near the bottom of the Western Athletic Conference to near the top of the Mountain West.

Along the way, the Broncos have won team titles, individual titles, several student-athletes have earned recognition both on and off the course and records have fallen.

In the fi nal tournament of the fall season, Boise State won the Winthrop Invitational, the eighth team title in school history. Three of the victories have come under Bird, the most by a Bronco head coach in school history.

Sophomore Samantha Martin earned individual medalist honors at the event, the 11th by a Bronco women’s golfer all-time, and the fi rst by an underclassmen since Acey Erlandson won a pair of tournaments as a freshman in 1999-2000.

The Broncos also won the Cowgirl Classic last season by 19 strokes (April 8-10, 2013), their fi rst outright team title in nearly 13 years and the largest margin of victory since winning the Big Sky Championships by 24 strokes, Oct. 10-12, 1993.

The win was one of six top-fi ve fi nishes on the year – the most in school history.

The Broncos earned their fi rst team title under Bird at the Bronco Fall Invitational, Oct. 13-14, 2008, tying for medalist honors.

The record-breaking trend of last season carried over to this fall. Last season Boise State established school records at the Price’s “Give ‘Em Five” Invitational (Oct. 8-10), carding the lowest three-round team score in school history with an 893 (+29). The total included a fi nal-round 291 (+3), the lowest single-round score at Boise State all-time.

The three-round mark fell in the fi rst tournament of the 2013-14 season, as Boise State carded a total of 882 (+18) at the Bronco Fall Invitational, and the single-round score was matched in the opening round of this year’s season opener.

Boise State capped 2012-13 - the most successful season in recent memory - with a second-place effort at the Mountain West Championships, the second-best fi nish at a conference tournament in school history and the best showing since winning the Big Sky Championships, Oct. 10-12, 1993. The team’s fi nal-round 302 (+14) tied the school single-round record at a conference tournament, as did the three-round total of 916 (+52).

Individually, Hayley Young set the school’s single-season scoring average record (75.19) en route to second-team All-Mountain West honors. Young broke her own school record, a mark she initially set as a sophomore in 2010-11 (75.83).

In all, six of the top-10 single-season scoring averages in school history have come under Bird.

Young was also named second-team all-conference as a sophomore in the WAC (2010-11), and Iris Ocariza was named All-WAC Second Team in 2008-09.

Young earned medalist honors at the Cowgirl Classic in 2012-13, just the 10th individual title in school history. Her three-round total of 214 (-2) set the school record, and her seven-stroke margin of victory is the second-largest all-time by a Bronco.

In the classroom, 15 Broncos have garnered conference all-academic honors and six have been named Women’s Golf Coaches Association All-America Scholars.

Additionally, three of her golfers were named Mountain West Scholar-Athlete Award recipients for 2011-12, one of the highest academic honors bestowed by the conference. Four more received the accolade in 2012-13.

The team set the school record for highest single-semester grade-point average with a 3.68 in the spring of 2012, beginning a streak of four-consecutive semesters with the highest GPA in the department. The Broncos’ 2013 Academic Progress Rate score of 992 was a program record (four-year average), and included a perfect score of 1,000 for 2011-12.

Bird brought in a trio of highly-touted freshmen for the 2012-13 campaign, and the group did not disappoint. McKenzie Ford, Samantha Martin and Sammie Pless ranked 20th-natioanally in Golfstat’s Freshmen Impact Rankings at the conclusion of the season.

Bird joined Boise State after spending fi ve seasons as an assistant coach at TCU. Her duties as assistant coach included aiding in recruiting, organizing day-to-day operations of the program and helping lead team practices and workouts.

The Horned Frogs posted fi ve-straight NCAA Championships appearances and registered fi ve regular-season tournament victories during Bird’s tenure. The 2007 team won the MW Championships, and the program produced three All-America honorees in Catherine Matranga, Valentine Derrey and Brooke Tull. She also helped coach nine NGCA All-America Scholars, one Academic All-American and nine all-conference honorees.

Bird served as the assistant tournament director for the 2004 Conference-USA Women’s Golf Championships, as an intern with the American Junior Golf Association and as the AJGA’s Manager of Tournament Administration.

A native of Edmond, Okla., Bird attended Western New Mexico University from 1996-98 before transferring to Centenary (1998-2000), where she graduated cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in communication and professional writing.

She and husband Steve were married during the summer of 2011.

Rounding out the scoring for the Broncos was freshman Genevieve Ling, who carded an 83 (+11) to enter the fi nal round tied for 22nd.

Day Two Recap...ROCK HILL, S.C. - Sophomore Samantha Martin captured the fi rst individual title of her career at the Winthrop Invitational, helping lead Boise State to the team’s eighth championship in school history at the fi nal tournament of the fall season.

Martin followed an opening-round 1-over 73 with a fi nal-round 79 (+7) at the 6,044-yard Rock Hill Country Club, winning the tournament by a stroke over a group of four tied for second place.

Martin fi nished with a two-round total of 152 (+8) en route to medalist honors. The fi nish was her fourth top-10 effort in fi ve tournaments this fall, already tied for the third-most in a single season in school history and just one shy of the school record set by Erlandson in 1999-2000, and matched by Hayley Young last year.

Amongst the group of four tied for second place was Bronco freshman Oceane Pelloille, who shot 76-77 (153, +9).

She fi nished tied for 21st earlier in the season at the Bronco Fall Invitational (Sept. 16-17).

For the Broncos, the team title is their second in the last seven tournaments. Since winning the Cowgirl Classic (April 8-10, 2013), the Broncos had fi nished runner-up three times before breaking through for another victory this weekend.
