It’s a good thing championships don’t depend solely on equipment budgets, or the Boise State women’s basketball team would be on the outside looking in.
The Broncos swept the Mountain West Conference’s regular-season and tournament championships last season despite ranking second to last among the league’s 11 teams with an equipment budget of $29,500.
The average women’s basketball equipment budget in the Mountain West is $60,000, according to numbers provided by Boise State.
Working with smaller budgets than their competitors, four Boise State women’s sports teams won conference titles in 2017-18.
