First-Ever “Stripe Out” of War Memorial Stadium Set for Wyoming-Missouri Game Aug. 31: A first-time event in the history of War Memorial Stadium

Cowboys Will Enter the 2019 Season on a Four-Game Win Streak,All-America Candidates Cooper Rothe and Logan Wilson Among Many Key Returnees

As the Wyoming Cowboys enter the 2019 season, they will bring a four-game winning streak with them into the season. The Cowboys finished 2018 strong with convincing road wins over Colorado State (34-21) and New Mexico (31-3), a home win over San Jose State (24-9) and a thrilling come-from-behind victory over Air Force (35-27) in a game that saw the Cowboys score three touchdowns in the final 4:30 of the game to erase a 27-14 deficit. Wyoming earned bowl eligibility for the third consecutive season, finishing with a 6-6 record in 2018. Wyoming also had two finalists for national awards in 2018 -- a first in program history. Former Cowboy and current Minnesota Viking Marcus Epps was a finalist for the Burlsworth Trophy given to the most outstanding player who began his career as a walk-on, and current UW senior Cooper Rothe was one of three national finalists for the 2018 Lou Groza Award, honoring the nation’s top collegiate place-kicker. Leading the team in 2019 will be a group of 12 seniors with starting experience -- six on defense, four on offense and two on special teams. Among that group are preseason All-America candidates Rothe, at place-kicker, and Logan Wilson, at middle linebacker. Wilson has been named to the 2019 Chuck Bednarik Award Preseason Watch List. The Bednarik Award is presented annually to the College Defensive Player of the Year. Rothe has been named to multiple Preseason All-America teams, including being named a Second Team Preseason All-American by the Sporting News. Rothe is also the returning Mountain West Conference Special Teams Player of the Year, Joining Wilson as returning senior starters on defense are: cornerbacks Tyler Hall and Antonio Hull, strong safety Alijah Halliburton, weak-side linebacker Cassh Maluia and defensive end Josiah Hall. Three senior receivers with starting experience return in Austin Conway, Raghib Ismail and John Okwoli. They are joined by redshirt senior tight end Josh Harshman. On special teams in addition to Rothe, his holder, senior Nick Szpor. returns to start for his fourth consecutive season. Wyoming returns 13 of 24 regular starters from last season -- five on offense, six on defense and two on special teams. There are a total of 31 Cowboys on the 2019 roster who have starting experience during their Wyoming careers. A number of underclassmen also return after playing critical roles for the Pokes a year ago. Quarterbacks Sean Chambers and Tyler Vander Waal both return after sharing the starting duties last season. Chambers came out of 2019 Spring Practice as the projected starter. In his first start as a collegian, Chambers played a big role in Wyoming’s 34-21 road win at Colorado State. The true freshman rushed for 101 yards and one rushing touchdown and completed 7 of 10 passes for 116 yards and two passing TDs in the victory. Chambers also led UW to its home victory over San Jose State. Vander Waal was the starter in three of Wyoming’s wins against New Mexico State, Wofford and New Mexico and came off the bench early in the first quarter for an injured Chambers to help key the Cowboys’ miraculous win over Air Force. Due to the new NCAA redshirt rules implemented last year, Chambers got his freshman season back as he played in only four games. He will be a redshirt freshman, and Vander Waal will be a sophomore. Running back Xazavian Valladay returns for his sophomore season. Valladay had the best game of his college career in the season finale at New Mexico. Valladay rushed for 192 yards on 22 carries and scored two rushing touchdowns versus the Lobos. Other key offensive returners who are underclassmen include sophomore center Keegan Cryder, who earned First Team Freshman All-America honors in 2018 from the Football Writers Association of America. Tackles Rudy Stofer and Alonzo Velazquez started seven and five games respectively. Velazquez’s season was cut short due to injury. Junior Logan Harris is the projected starter at right guard and has 13 career starts to his credit, while sophomores Eric Abojei (five starts in 2018) and Patrick Arnold (four starts) also return. The key underclassmen on defense returning starts with junior defensive end Garrett Crall. Crall had 38 tackles 6.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks in his first season as a starter in 2018. Another talented defender is junior defensive tackle Ravontae Holt. Holt’s four starts in 2018 came in the final four games of the season, corresponding to Wyoming’s four-game winning streak. Junior nose tackle Javaree Jackson also has two starts and has played in 19 career games over his first two seasons. Head coach Craig Bohl likes the blend of veterans and younger players he has entering his sixth season as the head coach of the Cowboys. “When I look at our depth chart, I think Logan Wilson is a guy who you have to say is a dominant player in the Mountain West,” said Bohl. “Cooper Rothe is another player who has risen to the top of our conference, and arguably you can make a case that they are a couple of the better players in the country. “We’re in a little different situation than we were last year at quarterback. Going into last year, we had unproven quarterbacks who had not played. This year, we have two quarterbacks who have played quite a bit. “If I look at areas on this year’s team where I think we can make some good progress, I would say the offensive line, the secondary and the linebackers. I think our defensive front can be good. We don’t have a proven running back and that is going to be important to develop. As of right now, we have not had a wide receiver or a tight end come to the forefront and be explosive.” While Bohl acknowledges that his team lost several senior leaders from last year’s team, he also is quick to point out that this year’s Wyoming roster possesses a talented senior class with strong leadership. “When you talk about guys who are excellent leaders, I think Josiah Hall has a great leadership influence on our team. Certainly Logan (Wilson) does, as well. Tyler Hall has that leadership quality. Offensively, Sean Chambers for a young guy has that leadership ability. Josh Harshman is another fifth-year senior who provides excellent leadership and there are other guys. We’re not a super young football team, we have some older players on this team to go with the younger players we’ve brought in. “This blend of experience and youth I think is an indication of where our program is at. We have recruited, I think, well the last several years. Certainly you’re going to have some ups and downs, but I think we’re on a trajectory for long-term success.”

The 2019 season will kick off on Aug. 31 when the Cowboys will host the Missouri Tigers. The game will mark only the second time in Wyoming Football history that the Cowboys will host an SEC team --the other being a 37-32 win over Ole Miss in Laramie in 2004. When asked about his team’s experience in playing high-level non-conference games during his previous five years at Wyoming, Bohl said, “Last

year, if you look at the quality of opponents that we faced, certainly there were some daunting challenges, but we were really encouraged about how we finished. We finished with four wins against some good football teams and some of them were convincing wins. I think it gave us a springboard going into winter.

“But we did go into the winter more nicked up than normal, and we probably missed as many players during spring practice as I can remember. We had several guys who had to have surgeries and had to rehab injuries, but those guys are coming back. Now is a chance for us to push the gas peddle down and get going into fall camp.”

In addition to hosting Missouri to kick off the season, Wyoming will host Idaho, travel to Texas State and Tulsa in the non-conference portion of the season. The Cowboys will kick off the Mountain West Conference season at home versus UNLV. Other MW conference home games will include New Mexico, Nevada and rival Colorado State in a special Friday night game on Nov. 22 that will be televised on ESPN2.

As he enters his sixth season leading Wyoming Football, Bohl was asked if he feels his veteran players now have a different expectation level than his team did six years ago when he arrived. “Without question the expectations of our players is higher,”

said Bohl. “We were just trying to survive when we first got here. Our football team didn’t know our coaches. Our coaches didn’t know our

football team. Now, everyone of these guys on our team have been recruited by our staff. There is great trust. There’s great attitude, and our guys really have a hunger and a desire to be good.” Joining the returning players is a group of 24 signees -- 23 high school signees and one graduate transfer in running back Trey Smith from Louisville. Asked if he thought some members of the incoming recruiting class might be able to come in and help in their first season with the Cowboys, Bohl replied, “There are going to be some guys challenge for playing time as freshmen because of their abiliity and then also because of positional needs. But we’ve got a pretty mature recruiting template now. In recruiting, you’re always going to have some misses, but I think we have more finds than misses and some will rise to the top and play as freshmen.”

Position-by-Position BreakdownOffense

Quarterbacks Sean Chambers and Tyler Vander Waal return in 2019 to provide the Wyoming Cowboys with two quarterbacks with starting experience. Chambers emerged from the competition in spring practice as the projected starter. He didn’t see his first action of the season until the eighth game of the 2018 season against Utah State. He entered that game in the second half and rushed for 100 yards and accounted for 162 yards of total offense while leading the Pokes to 13 second-half points in a close 24-16 loss. The next week in his first career start, he fueled a dominating 34-21 road win over the Cowboys’ archrival Colorado State. He rushed for 101 yards, had 217 yards of total offense, scored a rushing touchdown and threw two TD passes. The next week in a home win over San Jose State, Chambers rushed for 129 yards -- his third consecutive 100-yard rushing game -- accounted for 180 yards of total offense and had a rushing touchdown and a passing TD in a 24-9 home win. Unfortunately, Chambers season came to a sudden end on Wyoming’s first possession against Air Force on Nov. 17. The Cowboys were on the Air Force 10-yard line on that opening drive and about to score, when Chambers suffered a broken leg. Vander Waal came into the Air Force game in relief of Chambers and on his first play threw an 11-yard TD pass to Raghib Ismail Jr. for Wyoming’s first touchdown of the game. Vander Waal would go on to have the best game of his career, passing for passing for 225 yards, accounting for 247 yards of total offense, scoring two rushing TDs and throwing two TD passes in a dramatic 35-27 comeback win. He would earn Mountain West Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors for his efforts. Chambers would conclude the season averaging 148.8 yards of total offense per game in his four games, while Vander Waal averaged 124.7 yards of total offense in the 10 games he appeared. “We had spirited competition throughout spring football between both Sean (Chambers) and Tyler (Vander Waal) and at the end of the day we felt Sean was a little bit ahead of Tyler,” said Bohl. “But we certainly feel really good about either guy going into the season. Having two quarterbacks with game experience provides us a lot of flexibility entering the season.”

Running Backs Wyoming will be looking to replace 1,000-yard rusher and graduate Nico Evans when the 2019 season kicks off. Evans ranked No. 4 in the nation in rushing in 2018, averaging 132.5 yards per game and accounting for a total of 1,325 rushing yards. But as last season came to an end, one Cowboy made a strong claim to move into that starting role left vacant by Evans. Redshirt freshman Xazavian Valladay concluded the 2018 season rushing for 192 yards on 22 carries and scored two rushing touchdowns at New Mexico in a 31-3 road win. Valladay also made two huge catches during the season that kept drives alive in wins over Air Force and Wofford. Behind Valladay on the depth chart coming out of spring football was junior Jeff Burroughs, who was moved from fullback to running back. In the summer of 2019, Wyoming brought in graduate transfer running back Trey Smith from Louisville, and in the fall a group of three freshman running backs will also be joining the program. “Xazavian Valladay is a young man who played quite a bit last year, and made some big plays for us,” said Bohl. “He really played his best football at the end of last season. Jeff Burroughs is a Wyoming guy from Yoder who has been in our program for several years. We moved him over from fullback to running back, and he did some good things in spring football.

“We have three freshmen who are coming in this summer, but we won’t be able to see what they can do until fall camp gets going. We were also able to get a graduate transfer this summer in Trey Smith, who previously played at Louisville and gives us another player with game experience at a high level. We have a lot of scholarship players at that position now.”

Fullbacks Another player who made a switch in positions during 2019 spring drills was junior Skyler Miller from Torrington, Wyo. Miller was switched from a nickel back/linebacker to fullback. The move resulted in Miller earning the starting spot at fullback entering fall camp. Senior Jaylon Watson, who missed most of spring football recovering from injury, will also compete for that starting role at fullback. Watson has been a valuable special teams contributor throughout his career, appearing in all 39 career games during his previous three seasons as a Cowboy. “Skyler Miller did a good job during spring football and was a bright spot,” Bohl said. “Jaylon Watson is a senior, who is a veteran player at fullback. He was banged up a little bit in spring, but we feel like between those two guys we have some flexibility at that position.”

Wide Receivers A group of seniors will lead the way for the Cowboy receiving corps in 2019. Austin Conway, Raghib Ismail Jr. and John Okwoli all

return for their senior seasons. Conway has been Wyoming’s leading receiver each of the past two seasons. Ismail made an impact in his first season with the Cowboys in 2018 after transferring from Cisco Community

College in Texas, and Okwoli has played in 38 games during his career as a Cowboy. Other returners with playing experience include: juniors Ayden Eberhardt and Dontae Crow and sophomore Gunner Gentry. “We have a collection of receivers who can move between positions,” said Bohl. “Our most experienced receiver is Austin Conway. He has been a key member of our offense the past three seasons. We have a couple other seniors in Rocket Ismail and John Okwoli, who we are looking at to have their best seasons. Ayden Eberhardt is coming off a good spring, and we also have Gunner Gentry back as a sophomore. We didn’t have him in spring due to an injury, but we expect good things from him. It’s a pretty experienced crew coming back. We’re looking for a playmaker to step up in this group.”

Tight Ends Wyoming’s tight end group features three returners, including redshirt senior Josh Harshman. Harshman was injured in the third game of the 2018 season at Missouri and received a medical redshirt from the NCAA, giving him his senior season back. He has played in many big games for the Pokes and enters his senior season with 41 career games played. Sophomore Nate Weinman played in nine games last season, and redshirt freshman Jackson Marcotte had an outstanding spring. “It’s great to have Josh Harshman back for one more season,” said Bohl. “Josh gives us a veteran with a lot of game experience. Nate Weinman and Jackson Marcotte are strong, physical players. Between our returning tight ends and fullbacks, I think we’re going to be much more fortified at those positions than what we’ve been in the past.”

Offensive Line The Cowboy offensive line unit returns six offensive linemen with starting experience. That group is led by sophomore center Keegan Cryder, who earned First Team Freshman All-America honors from the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) in 2018. Cryder began the ‘18 season starting three of the first four games at left guard and one game at right guard before being inserted into the starting center spot in game five. Cryder started the final eight games of the season at center, and is slotted to start at that spot entering the 2019 season. But due to his versatility, Cryder could be utilized at numerous positions. The Wyoming coaching staff even experimented with him playing tackle for a few reps during 2019 spring practice. The other returning Cowboys with starting experience include junior right tackle Alonzo Velazquez, who has 15 career starts to his credit over the past two seasons all at right tackle. Sophomore Logan Harris enters the 2019 season as the projected starter at right guard. Harris has started 14 games the previous two seasons, including 13 at center and one at guard. The projected starter at left tackle is sophomore Rudy Stofer, who started seven games at right tackle as a redshirt freshman in 2018. He was moved to left tackle during 2019 spring drills and provides good size and athleticsm at 6-6 and 297 pounds. Two other sophomores with starting experience are Eric Abojei, who started five games in 2018, and Patrick Arnold, who started the first four games of the 2018 season at center for the Cowboys, but was injured in game four. The two came out of spring practice listed as co-starters at left guard. “We had a little bit of a patchwork during the course of spring practice due to some injuries,” said Bohl. “Rudy Stofer participated in the majority of spring ball, but he missed the last week with a concussion. He started several games for us last year and shows good promise. Frank Crum will be backing up Rudy. Frank redshirted last year. At left guard, we have Patrick Arnold, who began the season as the starter at center before going down with an injury. Patrick has bounced between center and guard. Eric Abojei played the majority of the spring and will compete for that spot, so we have some depth at that position. Keegan Cryder is a versatile guy for us. He began last season as a starter at guard, and then moved into the center position where he did an excellent job as a redshirt freshman. We even took a look at him at tackle during spring ball. He provides us a lot of flexibility. At right guard Logan Harris really had a dominant spring. He bounced back from the last year when he was out of the starting lineup, but he started 13 games at center as a true freshman two years ago, so he gives us another experienced player up front. I think guard is a good spot for him. Blayne Baker will back up Logan. Alonzo Velazquez missed all of spring with a knee surgery, but he’s 100 percent now. He has started games for us each of the last two years, and gives us an athletic player at tackle. Gavin Dunayski is a guy who we moved over from the defensive line. He needs to pick up a little weight and continue to work on his technique. “A lot of guys up front and several who have played quite a bit of football for us.”

DefenseLinebackers

Wyoming’s defense will be led by four-year starter and All-America candidate Logan Wilson at middle linebacker. Wilson will enter his senior season ranked No. 2 among all active players at the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) in career tackles, with 316. He has led the Cowboys in tackles each of the past two seasons, recording back-to-back 100-tackle seasons (119 in 2017 and 103 in 2018). Wilson was named to the 2019 Chuck Bednarik Award Watch List, which honors the nation’s College Defensive Player of the Year. He was the leader of a 2018 Cowboy defense that ranked No. 19 in the nation in total defense, No. 25 in rushing defense, No. 28 in scoring defense and No. 32 in pass defense. Wilson has started every game of his college career -- 39 consecutive games. Wilson’s running mate for the past three seasons also returns in fellow senior Cassh Maluia at weak-side linebacker. Maluia ranked fifth among Cowboy defenders last season in tackles, with 47. He added 6.0 tackles for loss, three pass breakups and an interception his junior season. Maluia has started 25 of the 37 career games he has played. He and Wilson provide the Cowboys with one of the most veteran linebacker duos in the Mountain West. A couple other returners will back up Wilson and Maluia. A third senior, Ben Wisdorf, will back up Maluia at the weak-side spot. Wisdorf has played in 31 career games, including the all 25 games the past two seasons. He is also a key special teams performer. The fourth returning linebacker with experience is sophomore Chad Muma. Muma is listed as the back up to Wilson at middle linebacker, but he can also play the weak-side position when needed. Muma played as a true freshman a year ago, primarily on special teams. He shares a similarity with Wilson in that he is a linebacker who runs exceptionally well. A number of young linebackers will also get a look in fall camp. “At middle linebacker Logan Wilson is a guy who has continued to improve each year,” said Bohl. “He’s got excellent play-making ability and a very good understanding of our defense. Backing him up is Chad Muma. Chad played some last year as a true freshman, since then he’s put on some good weight. Both of those guys can cover a lot of ground, are really intelligent and are good tacklers. “Our weak-side linebacker position has another senior starter in Cassh Maluia. Between Logan (Wilson) and Cassh those two have played together in a lot of big games, and we’ll lean on that experience. Ben Wisdorf is another senior who provides depth. Between those two linebacker positions we have a lot of experience.”

Secondary The Cowboy secondary lost two four-year starters and team leaders in safeties Andrew Wingard and Marcus Epps, who have both moved onto the NFL with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Minnesota Vikings, respectively. But the good news for Wyoming fans is the secondary returns three very experienced seniors in cornerbacks Tyler Hall and Antonio Hull and safety Alijah Halliburton. Hall has twice been honored by the Mountain West Conference as an Honorable Mention All-Conference selection, and he will be one of the top returning cornerbacks in the Mountain West in 2019. Hall is an excellent cover corner and a fearless tackler. He is an extremely versatile player, having played nickel back/outside linebacker for the first half of the 2018 season before moving back to his natural position of corner. Hall has also been one of the top kickoff returners in the Mountain West and the nation during his career. Hull has started 32 of 39 career games he has played for the Cowboys. He has been a consistent performer, who has made some big plays in his career, including a game-ending pass breakup against San Diego State in 2016 to preserve a 34-33 regular-season win that enabled the Cowboys to win the Mountain West Division and host the MW Championship Game two weeks later. Halliburton had been a valuable backup to Wingard and Epps throughout his first two seasons, but he really stepped into the spotlight in 2018 when he was inserted into the starting lineup in the second half of the season when Epps was moved to more of a nickel back position. Halliburton is an excellent tackler, and ranked fourth among Cowboys in tackles in 2018, with 61, right behind linebacker Logan Wilson (103 tackles), Wingard (87) and Epps (63). In addition to the three seniors, junior Braden Smith and redshirt freshman Rome Weber came out of spring practice listed as co-starters at the free safety spot. Smith has been a valuable special teams player throughout his career. Weber played on special teams in the final three games of the 2018 season and took advantage of the new NCAA redshirt rule that allowed him to use 2018 as a redshirt season since he didn’t play in more than four games. Both Smith and Weber began their Wyoming careers as cornerbacks. The final starting spot is the nickel/strong-side linebacker position. That spot has evolved into more of a nickel than an outside linebacker in Wyoming’s Tampa-2 defense. Sophomore Keyon Blankenbaker was moved from corner to nickel in the spring of 2019. He started four games at corner during his redshirt freshman season of 2018 after fellow redshirt freshman C.J. Coldon was lost for the season due to injury. Talented sophomore cornerback Coldon returns healthy for 2019. Coldon earned a starting spot to begin the 2018 season, but was injured in the third game of the season at Missouri and missed the rest of the season. Junior Esaias Gandy is slotted to back up Halliburton at strong safety and will continue in his role as a leader on special teams. A group of young defensive backs will challenge for playing time in the secondary and on special teams in 2019. “Tyler Hall is a senior who has played both nickel and corner for us. He is a really excellent corner,” said Bohl. “We moved him back there during the season last year, and he did an outstanding job. Antonio Hull has played a lot of football for us. He missed the 2017 season due to injury and came back to start all of last year. It is nice to have two seniors at corner and in the case of Antonio a fifth-year senior. C.J. Coldon started the first couple games last year at corner before missing the remainder of the season. He is a really talented player. Blake Harrington is a young man who came in and provided some depth during the course of spring. “Moving over to the safeties, Alijah Halliburton moved into a starting spot in the back half of last season. He is an excellent tackler and a senior player. Esaias Gandy has played some, as well, primarily on special teams, but he will provide depth at the strong safety position. Braden Smith was moved from cornerback to free safety last season. He has got good range, runs really well and has good man coverage skills. Rome Weber was also moved from corner to free safety, so we have two guys who have similar abilities with good range and they can really run.

“When you have two very experienced and talented safeties graduate from your program like we had with Andrew (Wingard) and Marcus (Epps), some might think the world ended but quite frankly the opposite is true. We have three talented seniors returning in Tyler, Antonio and Alijah, who all played with and learned from Marcus and Andrew, along with some talented young guys and we’ll build around them. “Keyon Blankenbaker played nickel throughout spring, and we’ll find a back up for him during fall camp. We could also rotate one of our cornerbacks into the position for depth. We look at the nickel spot as more of a third corner than as a SAM (strong-side) linebacker. “Our league is a wide-open league, but we feel good about our guys in the secondary.” Defensive Line

Wyoming’s defensive front returns four projected starters who all have starting experience led by senior defensive end Josiah Hall. Hall was limited some in 2018 due to injury, but he has 20 career starts to his credit and will enter fall camp 100 percent. At the other defensive end position will be junior Garrett Crall. Crall stepped into the starting lineup as a sophomore in 2018 and started 11 of 12 games. He finished last season with 38 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. The middle of the defensive line will be anchored by junior defensive tackle Ravontae Holt. Holt is a very talented defensive tackle, who could have a breakout season as a junior. He was credited with 31 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery last season. He has played in 21 of 25 games his first two seasons at Wyoming and has started seven games including the final four games of 2018. Holt will be joined by junior nose tackle Javaree Jackson. Jackson was injured entering the 2018 season, but came back to play in eight of the final nine games last season. He has two career starts entering his junior season. A third interior defensive lineman who was productive last year in his first season of competition was Victor Jones. Jones had 15 tackles in the 11 games he played. He is listed No. 2 on the depth chart at defensive tackle

behind Holt. The other players who were listed on Wyoming’s depth chart coming out of 2019 spring drills are all young players. Sophomore Davon Wells-

Ross and redshirt freshmen Solomon Byrd, Leevi Lafaele and Teagan Liufau will all be competing for playing time at defensive end. Redshirt freshman Mario Mora is listed as the backup at nose tackle behind Jackson.

“At the defensive end position, we return another senior starter in Josiah Hall,” said Bohl. “Josiah missed all of spring ball recovering from some surgery. He has good play-making ability and is a steady-Eddie guy. Between Leevi (Lafaele) and Davon (Wells-Ross) we’ll see who rises to the top as Josiah’s backup. Garrett Crall moved into a starting role last year. He has good size at 6-5, 242. Solomon Byrd came on this spring and Teagan (Liufau) did some good things. At defensive end we’ve got two established starters and a number of other players vying for playing time. “Ravontae Holt is an exceptional defensive tackle. Victor Jones is another player who gained some experience last season. On the other side, Javaree Jackson has gotten a little bit bigger. He’s a junior and will provide us with a veteran up front. Mario Mora is a young player who showed us some good things during the spring. “If you’re good up front, you’ve got a chance to be pretty good, and we’re looking foward to see what this group can do this season.”

Special TeamsKickers, Punters, Holders and Long Snappers

Wyoming place-kicker Cooper Rothe had an amazing season in 2018, concluding with him being named one of three national finalists for the Lou Groza Award, which is awarded annually to the top collegiate place-kicker in the country. Rothe was also named the Mountain West Conference Special Teams Player of the Year on top of earning First Team All-Mountain West honors. He led the nation in field-goal percentage at 94.1 percent, making 16 of 17 field goals he attempted. He also tied for the nation’s lead in point-after-touchdown percentage, converting 100.0 percent of his PATs (28 of 28). The punting duties for the Cowboys are expected to be handled by junior Tim Zaleski. Zaleski stepped in as the starting punter for UW as a true freshman in 2017, starting all 13 games. He started the first five games of his sophomore season of 2018 before he suffered a season-ending knee injury against Boise State. Cowboy wide receiver Dontae Crow did an admirable job of stepping in for Zaleski the remainder of the 2018 season. Crow averaged 42.8 yards per punt, but it was decided in 2019 spring practice that Crow would return to play wide receiver full time. Senior Ryan Galovich worked at punter throughout spring practice and will be the backup for both Zaleski at punter and Rothe at the place-kicking spot. Nick Szpor returns as Wyoming’s holder for his fourth consecutive season. Szpor and Rothe have teamed up for 39 consecutive games, from the first game of their true freshman season of 2016. Szpor as been extremely consistent and enabled Rothe to have great success. Returning for his second season as the starting long snapper will be Jesse Hooper. Hooper started all 12 games as a true freshman in 2018. “Cooper Rothe has been an excellent place-kicker. He’s done a great job here at Wyoming,” said Bohl. “Last year, Cooper really put himself on a national stage with his consistency. I think his leg has gotten stronger, and I’m excited to see what he can accomplish this coming season. Ryan Galovich is his backup entering the fall. “Tim Zaleski is coming back from a surgery. He wasn’t able to practice in the spring, but we’re hopeful he will be back at full strength this fall. Ryan (Galovich) also came in during the spring and punted and did a nice job. “We have the luxury of having senior Nick Szpor back as our holder. Nick and Cooper have worked together throughout their careers. For the second straight season, Jessie Hooper will handle all long snapping for us. He did a nice job as a freshman last year.”

Return Specialists Two very experienced and talented seniors return as Wyoming’s top punt returner and kickoff returner. Wide receiver Austin Conway has handled the punt return duties for Wyoming throughout his career and has been among the best in the Mountain West. Cornerback Tyler Hall has two career kickoff returns for touchdowns during his Cowboy career and has earned Honorable Mention All-MW as a return specialist. “Austin Conway is a guy who has been around a long time as a punt returner in addition to being one of our leading receivers,” said Bohl. “He has good ability and will give us a veteran presence back there. I don’t know exactly who we’ll have handle kickoff returns but we have a few guys who have been effective in the past. Tyler Hall is an outstanding kick returner in the past for us as has Austin. It just depends on how many reps on

Craig Bohl to Coach 200th Game as a Head Coach to Open the 2019 Season: When the Wyoming Cowboys kick off the 2019 season on Aug. 31 at home against Missouri, head coach Craig Bohl will be coaching in his 100th game as a collegiate head coach. Bohl brings a 132-67 (.663) record as a head coach into the 2019 season. Bohl is entering his sixth season as head coach of the Cowboys and 17th season overall as a head coach.

Wyoming Fans to be Treated to Another High Level Home Opponent to Kick off 2019 Season, Only Second SEC Team to Play in Wyoming: The run of high level home games for the Wyoming Cowboys continues in 2019 as Wyoming will host SEC member Missouri in War Memorial Stadium in the season opener on Aug. 31. It marks the third consecutive season that Wyoming fans will see a top level team. Wyoming hosted Oregon in 2017 and Washington State in 2018. Missouri is only the second SEC team to play in Wyoming’s War Memorial Stadium. The other was Ole Miss in 2004. Wyoming defeated the Ole Miss Rebels, 37-32. Other games hosted by Wyoming in the last decade include Texas in 2009 and Nebraska in 2011.

Logan Wilson Named to the Chuck Bednarik Award Watch List: University of Wyoming senior linebacker Logan Wilson was one of 80 players in the nation selected to the 2019 Chuck Bednarik Award Watch List. The Bednarik Award has been presented to the College Defensive Player of the Year since 1995. Wilson will enter his senior season with 316 career tackles.

2019 Will be the 123rd Season of Wyoming Football: The 2019 season marks the 123rd season of Wyoming Football. The Cowboys first season was 1893. Since that first season, there have been only four seasons in which Wyoming has not played football. In 1918, while Wyoming had a team they played no games due to an influenza epidemic. The other three seasons Wyoming did not field a team were 1943, ‘44 and ‘45 during World War II.

Wyoming Football’s All-Time Record: The Wyoming Cowboy Football program has played a total of 1,135 games in its history. Wyoming is 39 games under .500 all-time (534 wins to 573 losses), and has played 47 more road games than home games in its history (535 home games to 582 road games).The Cowboys played their 1,000th game on Sept. 6, 2008, against Air Force.

War Memorial’s original capacity was 20,000 in 1950. It was expanded to 25,500 in 1970, and the seating was increased to a capacity of 33,500 in 1977. Following reconstruction of the upper deck on the West side of War Memorial Stadium in the summer of 2004, the new capacity of War Memorial Stadium was 30,514. With the construction of the Wildcatter Stadium Club & Suites in 2009-10, the current capacity is 29,181.

Mick and Susie McMurry High Altitude Performance Center Benefitting All UW Student-Athletes: The University of Wyoming held a Grand Opening for the Mick and Susie McMurry High Altitude Performance Center (HAPC) on Aug. 18, 2018. The HAPC is one of the preeminent athletic facilities in the country. It will add 71,000 square feet of new space and will expand the current Curtis and Marian Rochelle

Athletics Center to over 118,000 square feet. “A successful athletics program generates excitement,” Wyoming Gov. Matt Mead said in when fundraising was announced. “This leads to better student recruitment, better alumni support and stronger schools. I recommended $20 million in matching funds for the expansion and renovation of the Rochelle Athletics Center for these reasons. I thank Marian H. Rochelle for this generous gift and her continued support of the University of Wyoming.” The project is funded by $24 million in private donations that were raised by UW Athletics and the UW Foundation and $20 million in state matching approved by Gov. Mead and the Legislature. Overwhelming interest by donors—55 total—saw the fundraising efforts completed ahead of schedule. Marian Rochelle and her family donated $3 million as a leadership gift to kick off the project, and the combined gifts of Marian Rochelle and her daughter April Brimmer Kunz have since grown to $4.1 million. “Mick and Susie McMurry’s generosity and their commitment to making the University of Wyoming a premier university in both athletics and academics will be symbolized by the High Altitude Performance Center that will bear their name,” says Tom Burman, UW athletics director. “We also want to thank Marian Rochelle and April Brimmer Kunz for their generous lead gift for this project. And we of course want to thank Governor Mead and the members of the Wyoming State Legislature for making funds available to match the private funds that we raised for this facility. “The High Altitude Performance Center will be one of the best facilities of its kind in all of college athletics. It will provide the student-athletes in all of our sports the athletic training resources to compete with the best in the nation, and it will provide our academic counseling unit exceptional resources to help our student-athletes achieve their educational and career goals.” “The Mick and Susie McMurry High Altitude Performance Center will redefine Cowboy football,” says UW Head Football Coach Craig Bohl. “This facility will play a critical role in our vision of recruiting to what we call the Wyoming Profile. That recruiting effort involves attracting a young man who is committed to earning a meaningful degree from an outstanding academic institution and has a laser-like focus to win Mountain West Conference championships. The High Altitude Performance Center will put us at the top of the league in terms of training and academic facilities, which is where we also aspire to be on the field of competition.” The new facility will focus on the unique advantages of training at an altitude of 7,220 feet. From strength and conditioning training, to nutrition, to recovery and rehabilitation services following injuries, the HAPC will serve the needs of all of Wyoming’s 400-plus student-athletes. The facility’s design will stay true to the architectural tradition of iconic sandstone buildings featured throughout the UW campus. Located just beyond the north end zone, the High Altitude Performance Center will enhance the aesthetics of War Memorial Stadium. Due to its location, the HAPC will be highly visible for national television audiences. It will show the commitment that the state of Wyoming has in ensuring Wyoming Athletics continues to successfully compete at the NCAA Division I level -- the highest level of competition in college sports. The ground level of the HAPC will house both an Olympic sport weight-training area and a separate strength and conditioning center for the Cowboy football team that will overlook Jonah Field. Also on the first floor will be a sports medicine area that will nearly double the size of its previous space, allowing for more effective and efficient treatment of UW student-athletes. The football locker room, like the football strength and conditioning area, will overlook the field and will include a player lounge. The second floor will include an expansive academic center to house academic counselors, tutoring areas and a computer lab, as well as enhanced and renovated football offices, meeting rooms, a new recruiting lounge and the nutrition center/training table. The theater-style team meeting room will span both the first and second floors. Construction on the project will begin after the conclusion of the 2016 Cowboy football season. It is estimated that the project will take 18-20 months to complete. The original Curtis and Marian Rochelle Athletics Center was opened in 2001 at a total cost of $9.4 million. Fundraising for the RAC included a historic $4.2 million gift from the Rochelles, which was the largest donation in school history at the time. A total of 167 donors contributed to the original RAC.

About Missouri: The Tigers return 13 starters from a team that finished with a 8-5 overall mark in 2018. In all, Missouri returns 51 letter winners and finished last season winning four of their last five games with the only loss coming in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl falling to Oklahoma State by a score of 30-3. Mizzou was selected to finish third in the SEC East, behind only Georgia and Florida. The Tigers averaged 36.6 points per game last season allowing 25.5 points per game. Missouri averaged 481.8 yards of offense per game, while defensively the Tigers allowed 388.5 yards of total offense per contest. Missouri’s offense is highlighted by transfer quarterback Kelly Bryant, as the former Clemson signal caller heads to Mizzou with a 16-2 career record. He ran for 665 yards last season with 11 touchdowns for Clemson. Junior tight Albert Okwuegbunam and senior OL Tre’Vour Wallace-Simms were named Preseason All-SEC First Team. Okwuegbunam recorded 43 catches for 466 yards in nine games. Running back Larry Rountree was named Third Team Preseason All-SEC, as he rushed for 1,919 yards in two seasons. The Missouri defense is led by Cale Garrett, as the First Team All-SEC selection recorded 112 tackles last season with 6.5 tackles for loss. DeMarkus Acy was a Second Team-All SEC selection last season. He led the team and ranked seventh in the SEC with three interceptions on the year, including one he ran back 76 yards at Tennessee. Place kicker Tucker McCann was an All-SEC pick. He connected on 24 field goals for the season and led the team with 123 points.

Head Coach Barry Odom: Barry Odom enters his fourth season as head coach at Missouri. Last season he helped lead Mizzouri to eight wins and has a career mark of 19-18. In 2017, Odom achieved a seven-win season and earned the program’s first bowl game since 2014. Mizzou closed the regular season as one of the nation’s hottest teams, thanks to a six-game win streak that culminated in a thrilling road win at Arkansas. That win moved Mizzou to 7-5 marking an amazing in-season turnaround that saw MU rebound from a 1-5 start on the year. Odom became the first Mizzou coach to make a bowl game in his second year at MU since Warren Powers did so in each of his first two seasons in 1978 and 1979. The 2017 Texas Bowl marked the seventh post season classic of his coaching or playing career – he’s 2-3 as a coach, and went 1-1 as a player for former Coach Larry Smith. A longtime fixture at Mizzou, Odom, 42, is guiding a program he has been immersed in at every level for some 16 years – including six in an administrative capacity (2003-08), six as a coach (2009-11, 2015-17) and four as a highly-successful student-athlete (1996-99). His two-year mark stands at 11-14 overall – the last time an MU coach had a better 25-game start to his career was in 1978-80 when Warren Powers was 16-9 through the same number of games. Odom, a Maysville, Okla., native played at Mizzou and starred as a linebacker from 1996-99. He ended his playing career with 362 tackles, which still ranks as seventh-most in school history. Odom was a captain for his senior year of 1999.

Last Season’s Recap: Mizzou 40 Wyoming 13: The Wyoming Cowboys (1-2 overall) dropped a 40-13 contest to Missouri (2-0 overall) on the road in what was the first meeting against a team from the Southeastern Conference in a decade on Saturday evening in Columbia, Mo. The matchup against the Tigers was the first meeting between the schools and marked the third-straight contest Wyoming faced a team that played in a Bowl Game last season. Senior safety Andrew Wingard led the Wyoming defense with 12 tackles moving into third in all-time tackles at Wyoming with 387 stops. He passed former Cowboy safety John Salley (1979-82). Redshirt junior Antonio Hull recorded a forced fumble and recovery in the game, as he has two this season. Wyoming freshman running back Jevon Bigelow rushed for a career-high 56 yards with a touchdown. Redshirt freshman Tyler Vander Waal threw for a career-high 160 yards. Kicker Cooper Rothe hit two field goals including a career-best 51 yarder in the second half. He has hit 20-of-23 field goals over the past two seasons for 87 percent. Missouri quarterback Drew Lock, an All-SEC performer, threw for 398 yards and four touchdowns on the night. The Tigers were an impressive 14-of-20 on third down for 70 percent. Wyoming finished the contest with 248 yards of total offense.

COWBOY NOTES

The 2019 season will mark Craig Bohl’s sixth season leading the University of Wyoming Football program and his 17th season as a head coach at the collegiate level. The success that Cowboy Football has enjoyed and the excitement generated around the program under Bohl’s direction is just what UW Athletics Director Tom Burman had hoped for when he hired Bohl. In terms of success, the Cowboys have become regular contenders in the race for the Mountain West Conference title. UW won eight games in both 2016 and ‘17, hosted the 2016 Mountain West Championship Game, earned consecutive bowl bids and won the 2017 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl with a convincing 37-14 victory. The 2018 season saw the Cowboys earn bowl eligibility for the third consecutive season, marking the first time a UW team had achieved that since the 1997-99 seasons. The excitement surrounding Wyoming Football included the extensive coverage of former Cowboy quarterback Josh Allen, who was selected as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. That marked the highest selection by a Wyoming Cowboy in the history of the program and was the second highest selection by a Mountain West player since Utah’s Alex Smith was selected No. 1 in 2005. Leading up to Allen being drafted, Wyoming’s Pro Day was covered live by both ESPN and the NFL Network. At the conclusion of the 2017 football season and the 2018 NFL Draft, media coverage of Wyoming Football for the past year was estimated by Joyce Julius & Associates at over $159 million. In 2018, Wyoming had two finalists for national awards for the first time in program history. Place-kicker Cooper Rothe was one of three national finalists for the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award, that honors the

nation’s top collegiate place-kicker each year. Free safety Marcus Epps was one of only three national finalists for the Burlsworth Trophy, which is awarded to the most outstanding football player in America who began his career as a walk-on. Epps went on to be drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft. Also for the third time in the last four seasons, Bohl had a freshman earn Freshman All-America honors from the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA). Cowboy center Keegan Cryder earned the honor in 2018. Cryder was one of only 32 freshman nationally to be named to the 2018 Freshman All-America squad. The excitement around Wyoming Football carries into the 2019 season as the Cowboys enter the season on a four-game winning streak. Among the top returning Cowboys are All-America candidates and seniors Rothe at place-kicker and Logan Wilson at linebacker. When Bohl was hired as head football coach at Wyoming, he was open in saying that he wanted to bring Cowboy Football back to a place of national prominence. Wyoming was once again one of the best defensive teams in the nation in 2018. The Cowboys ranked No. 19 in the nation in total defense, No. 25 in rushing defense, No. 28 in scoring defense and No. 32 in pass defense on way to a 6-6 record to earn bowl eligibility for the third straight season. The 2017 season saw the Cowboys post an 8-5 record and finish second in the MW Mountain Division. The Pokes were led by their defense in 2017, ranking No. 1 in the nation in forcing turnovers (38) and leading the Mountain West and ranking No. 9 in the nation in scoring defense, allowing opponents only 17.5 points per game. Wyoming’s defense also ranked No. 1 in fumbles recovered (18), No. 2 in interceptions (20), No. 8 in defensive touchdowns scored, 13th in the NCAA in pass defense, and 23rd in total defense. UW placed second in the Mountain Division and captured the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl in a convincing 37-14 win over Central Michigan. In 2016, Bohl’s team defeated two Top 25 ranked opponents, was named the National Team of the Week by the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) for one of those wins and received votes itself in the national polls. Wyoming also captured the Mountain Division title of the Mountain West Conference, earned the right to host the 2016 MW Football Championship Game as the highest ranked team in the conference and was invited to the San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl. His Cowboys ended the year with an 8-6 record and featured one of the NCAA’s top scoring offenses, averaging 35.9 points per game to rank No. 25 in the nation. Bohl was recognized for his turnaround of Cowboy Football by being named the 2016 Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year in voting by conference head coaches and media. Two Cowboys earned All-America honors in 2016 in running back Brian Hill and center Chase Roullier. Linebacker Logan Wilson earned Freshman All-America honors in 2016, joining Andrew Wingard, who earned Freshman All-America honors a year earlier. Bohl, who was part of building National Championship teams at North Dakota State and Nebraska, was introduced by University of Wyoming Athletics Director Tom Burman as the new head football coach of the Wyoming Cowboys on Sunday, Dec. 8, 2013. Bohl became the 32nd head football coach in University of Wyoming history. He came to Wyoming after building a national power at North Dakota State as a head coach for 11 seasons from 2003-13. His teams won three consecutive National Championships at the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) level in 2011, ‘12 and ‘13. NDSU became only the second FCS school in NCAA history to win three consecutive national football titles, tied the FCS record for consecutive wins (24 from 2011-13) and became the first undefeated FCS National Champion since 1996. Not only did Bohl win three national titles at the FCS level, but he was the linebackers coach at his alma mater, Nebraska, when the Huskers won the 1995 and 1997 National Championships. Bohl currently serves on the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Board of Trustees, having been elected by a vote of the membership at the 2012 AFCA national convention. He was also appointed to the 13-member NCAA Division I Football Competition Committee in January of 2017. Bohl concluded his career as head coach of the NDSU Bison, with a 104-32 (.765) record. He guided the Bison to the FCS Playoffs each of his final four seasons, posting a 14-1 record in the FCS Playoffs. By winning the 2013 FCS National Championship, North Dakota State extended its winning streak to 24 consecutive games, which tied both the NDSU and FCS records for consecutive victories. The Bison teams from 1964-66 originally set the school record with 24 straight victories. The University of Pennsylvania set the FCS record of 24 consecutive wins from 1992-95. That record was later tied by Montana from 2001-02. The 2013 NDSU team also set a North Dakota State single-season record for wins, posting a perfect 15-0 record. The Bison became the first undefeated FCS National Champion since Marshall went 15-0 to win the 1996 FCS title. In 2012 and ‘13, Bohl received both The Sports Network Eddie Robinson FCS National Coach of the Year Award and the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) FCS National Coach of the Year Award. He became the first coach in the first 27 years of the Eddie Robinson Award to win it in consecutive seasons. In 2013, he also received the Liberty Mutual FCS Coach of the Year Award, which is presented in partnership with the National Football Foundation and College Football Hall of Fame. His other National Coach of the Year honor came in 2006, when he was recognized by the Football Gazette as the FCS National Coach of the Year and the Northwest Region Coach of the Year. Bohl grew up in Lincoln, Neb., and went on to attend the University of Nebraska where he was a reserve defensive back from 1977 to 1979 under head coach Tom Osborne. Bohl was part of Nebraska’s 1979 Orange Bowl and 1980 Cotton Bowl teams. The 2019 season will be Bohl’s 39th year coaching at the college level. Born July 27, 1958, Bohl will be 61 years old when the 2019 season kicks off. He earned his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Nebraska in 1982. Bohl’s family includes wife Leia, and children Mallory and Morgan, Aaron and Elijah.
