Boucher and North Invited to NCAA Swimming Championships

Two Broncos who were instrumental in their team's recent Western Athletic Conference Swimming Championship have been invited to the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships in Austin, Texas.


Amber Boucher was invited to compete in the 100-yard butterfly, the 50-yard freestyle and the 100-yard freestyle.  She is seeded sixth in the butterfly, ninth in the 100-yard freestyle and 19th in the 50-yard free.  Stephanie North was invited in the 100-yard free and will also compete in the 50 and 200-yard free events.  


Boucher and North helped Boise State accumulate 835 team points in winning the WAC title, the ninth-highest point total in WAC championship history.  Boucher was named WAC Swimmer of the Year for the second straight year after breaking three championship records and six pool records.  


Boise State is one of 36 schools to have multiple student-athletes invited to the championships.
