3 The Golden Eagles begin this season’s campaign with a whole new look and just one familiar face on the court. All nine sophomores from last season, who posted one of the best records of all time at 30-2, signed at NCAA Division I schools. The one thing they didn’t achieve was a trip to “Hutch.” Now the lone returner (Daequon Montreal) and 15 newcomers, along with first-year head coach Steve Gosar, have set their sights on the coveted berth in the NJCAA National Tournament in Hutchinson, Kansas. “No doubt, we will look to Daequon for leadership and experience,” Gosar said. “He is the one player who really knows what it’s like to go on the road in the Scenic West Athletic Conference. He is the one player who knows how tough it is to win night after night with the bullseye placed squarely on your back. And he is definitely the type of player who can handle the pressure that comes with being a team leader.” Sophomore transfers Jason West and Jay Watkins will be able to lighten Montreal’s load in the experience department. Watkins, who was a very dynamic and talented player at the University of San Francisco as a freshman as well as West who transferred from Antelope Valley CC, understand what it takes to play at the college level and will be able to share the leadership role with Montreal. “We have a really young team,” Gosar said. “There will be growing pains early on but as we mature and the freshmen get more minutes we will be tough to beat late in the season.” Fans will see a little bit different look defensively this season. The past couple of years, the Golden Eagles ran a frenetic full-court press the entire game. “Defensively, we will still press but don’t look for us to play as fast as last year,” Gosar said. “We will pick and choose when we press and work on being solid in the half court.” The strength of this year’s team will definitely be at the point guard spot and inside. The Golden Eagles will look to big man Aziz Ndiaye to be a force in the middle. Ndiaye stands at 7 feet and with experience could make his mark at CSI. Ndiaye and Montreal will anchor the inside game. But the Golden Eagles will still be tough when those two aren’t on the court. Romario Souza (6-9) and Max Carrier (6-6) give CSI depth. Watkins (6-7) and Jonathon Williams (6-7) can play the 4-spot or create mismatches at the 3. Those that will be responsible to get the ball to the big men will be point guards Jamelle Barrett and Charles Odum. Eligible after the fall semester will be Paul Becklens, who also plays the guard position.

4 Look for Cheyne Martin to impact how successful the CSI inside game is. He can really shoot the ball and will be able to stretch the de- fense. Other players who will be key to the Golden Eagle’s success will Byago Diouf (6-3 guard), Lacy Haddock (6-1 guard), Carrick Felix (6-5 guard), and Louis Garrett (6-5 guard). Michael Falvo, a 6-4 guard from Salt Lake City, will redshirt this season. With the departure of last year’s head coach Barret Peery to the University of Utah and assistant coach Jeff Reneger to University of Texas San Antonio, the coaching staff has a new look too. Gosar, who assisted the past two years at CSI, took over head coaching responsibilities. He brought in Russ Beck and Josh Dees for his assistant coaches to fill the void. “The league is as good as it’s been top to bottom since I’ve been here,” Gosar said. “Colorado Northwestern, North Idaho, Snow and East- ern Utah have all added really good players to solid returners. Salt Lake will be as tough as always. The winner of this league will represent our region well no matter who it is.”

5 Steve Gosar begins his first season as head coach at CSI. Gosar, 38, joined the Golden Eagle staff from Portland State University 3 years ago as an assistant. He accepted the head coaching position May 5, 2008 when Barret Peery accepted an assistant coaching job at the University of Utah.

During the previous 3 seasons as Peery’s assistant, Gosar was part of a 3-year record of 85-19 including 3 SWAC Conference Championships and 2 trips to the National Tournament. The 2007-08 CSI team finished 30-2 and was ranked #1 in the nation for the first time in 13 years.

Prior to CSI, Gosar was an assistant at Portland State and was key to the team’s improvement. He helped recruit a class that was ranked by collegeinsider.com as the top recruiting class in the Big Sky. With those recruits, the team earned the distinction of being one of the top three turnaround programs in the country in 2004-05.

The Vikings finished the 2002-03 season 5-22 and improved to 11-16 in 2003-04. In Gosar’s last season at PSU, the Vikings posted a 19-9 record, the best ever in the history of the school as a Division I program. Portland State also won the Big Sky Conference regular season title, the school’s first men’s championship title since becoming a NCAA Division I program. Two players off that team earned conference and national accolades. Will Funn was the NCAA Division I national assist leader and Seamus Boxley garnered Big Sky Player of the Year honors.

Prior to joining the Vikings, Gosar spent two seasons as a graduate assistant at the University of Wyoming. Those two years, the Cowboys won back-to-back Mountain West Conference Championships, including the schools first outright conference championship in the last 20 years. The 2002 Wyoming team made it to the second round of the NCAA Tournament with a first- round win over Gonzaga.

Originally from Pinedale, Wyo., Gosar played his collegiate ball at Wyoming, earning a bachelor’s degree in molecular biology. Gosar is married to Lu. They have a little boy named Jake.

Pictured to the right is Steve, his wife Lu and their son Jake.

6 Steve Gosar has served a key role in the Golden Eagles’ recent success. He has helped CSI to the national tournament in two of his three years as an assistant. In 2007, the Golden Eagles placed in the top four in the country. Last season, CSI earned a #1 ranking in the NJCAA poll for the first time in 13 years.

7 Russ Beck Russell Beck joins the College of Southern Idaho men’s basketball program as an assistant coach. He joins the Golden Eagles from Salt Lake Community Col- lege, where he assisted Norm Parrish in leading the Bruins to a second-place finish at the NJCAA National Tournament last season in Hutchinson, Kansas. The Bruins finished 32-4, the best record in school history. “Russ is a hard worker and has a lot of knowledge of our league.,” said head coach Steve Gosar. “He is a tenacious recruiter and has developed a lot of ties around the country that can really help us.” Beck worked with the guards while at SLCC and coached region 18 MVP, first-team All-American and national all-tournament team selection DaVell Jackson as well as pre-season All American, Region 18 Tournament MVP and recipient of the Bud Obee small man award Brian Green. Prior to SLCC, Beck spent one year as an assistant at Southern Utah Univer- sity under head coach Bill Evans. Beck has coached under former Region 18 coaches Jeff Kidder and Jon Judkins at Dixie State College. While at DSC, he helped the Rebels compile a 40-24 record, a No. 1 national ranking and a Region 18 runner-up finish twice. “I have been mentored by some great coaches,” Beck said. “Coach Kidder, coach Judkins, coach Evans and coach Parrish are four of the best coaches in the profession.” Prior to coaching the past four years, Beck earned his associate of science degree at Dixie State College, and his bachelor of science degree in interpersonal communication and journalism at Southern Utah University. Beck served a mission for the LDS church in the Independence Missouri Mission. He is currently working on his master of science degree in human performance and physical education at Adams State College. He is married to Charity. They have two daughters – Leilani and Briana. “I am absolutely thrilled to work with coach Gosar and be a part of the CSI family and tradition,” Beck said. “I came here for one reason and that’s to go to “Hutch” and win a National Championship.”

Pictured above is coach Beck with his wife Charity and their two daughters Leilani (left) and Briana (right).

8 Josh Dees

Josh Dees begins his first season with the College of Southern Idaho men’s basketball program. “Josh brings energy, a great knowledge of the game and an incredible work ethic,” said CSI head coach Steve Gosar. “He comes from a great basketball family and he has a bright future in coaching.” Dees comes to CSI from Colorado State where he was a graduate assistant last year. Prior to that, he played basketball at the University of Wyoming and then Western Carolina as a point guard. He was named to the All-Southern Conference academic team and was named Western Carolina’s student-athlete of the year in 2006-07. In the spring of 2007, he graduated Suma Cum Laude from Western Carolina with a bachelor’s degree in political science/pre-law. In 2008, he received the WCU Politi- cal Science Distinguished Graduate Award. Dees served as an assistant camp director at Billy Gillespie’s Uni- versity of Kentucky basketball camps as well as assisted at Steve McClain’s University of Wyoming basketball camps. In 2006-07, Dees was a Special Olympic Coach, training Jason Hedrick for the 2006 Special Olympics Summer Games. Hedrick earned gold in the 200 meters and silver in the 400 meters. Josh is the son of Benny Dees who was Gosar’s head coach at the University of Wyoming. He also was the head coach at New Orleans, Virginia Commonwealth and Western Carolina.

Jason Vickrey

From Pinedale, Wyo., Jason was key to the success of the Golden Ea- gles last year and this year. He helped organize and run the 2008 Coach’s Clinic and Dinner as well as helped coach at the CSI basketball camps. This past summer, Jason traveled to USC, Memphis, University of Utah and Kentucky to work summer camps. “He is invaluable to our program,” Gosar said. “Anything we ask him to do he does without complaining and does a great job.”

Former CSI women’s basketball coach Joel Bate is in the midst of his second year at the helm of Golden Eagle Athletics. Bate, 48, has worn many hats at CSI. He first came to CSI in 1993 as an English professor and women’s basketball coach. “CSI is a great place to work,” Bate said. “I’ve been lucky enough to work with athletics and academics. We have great coaches and a great staff here and the work they’ve done this year has been very positive, not only on the court but in the classroom and community as well,” Bate said. “I love working with our many boosters, fans and corporate sponsors who have helped make CSI a special place to be.” Bate coached at CSI from 1993 until 2000, leading the Golden Eagles to the national tournament in 1999. During that span, Bate compiled a 144-78 record. He coached four NJCAA All-Americans and four NJCAA Academic All- Americans. Two players went on to play professional basketball, including Jessica Gibbs Mesna who assisted current coach Randy Rogers. In 1999, Bate earned Region 18 Coach of the Year honors. Prior to working at CSI, Bate taught and coached at Bishop Kelly High School in Boise. He taught senior English and headed the English department. In addition to his teaching duties, he coached girls’ volleyball, track and basketball, where he compiled a 114-32 record and four third-place state finishes. Bate earned his undergraduate degree in marketing at Boise State University and his master’s degree in English at the University of Idaho in 1986. Bate and his wife, Donna and three children, live in Twin Falls.

42 McDonald’s, locally owned and operated by Bill and Donna Kyle in Twin Falls, Burley and Jerome sponsors the CSI Golden Eagles and the McSlam-n-Jam. The money pledged for every dunk during home Golden Eagle basketball games is split between CSI Athletics and the Ronald McDonald House.

The Reason When a child becomes seriously ill, the whole family suffers, particularly if the child must be hospitalized or receive outpatient treatment far away from home for extended periods of time. To be with their child, parents often sleep on uncomfortable chairs or cots, or bear the expense and impersonal atmosphere of a hotel room. At a time when they want all their strength available for their child, the simple demands of everyday life can seem overwhelming. For these families, Ronald McDonald House offers a refuge from the hospital, a home-away-from-home, where they can have a room of their own, a comfortable bed, kitchen and laundry facilities, toys for the kids, and a cup of hot coffee.

Ronald McDonald House For the child, it’s knowing that mom and dad are close by, in a good place. It’s having a comforting, peaceful place to go from the hospital. For a brother or sister who cannot be there, it’s knowing that other family members are safe while away in a strange city. For the parents in the House, it’s knowing that they are not alone, that others have gone through similar situations and survived. It’s new parents getting practical advice from “veterans.” It’s people drawing hope and strength from late-night conversations in corridors and kitchens, sharing experiences that can be difficult for family and friends back home to fully understand. And, it’s a place to treasure every moment of having a child “home,” even if for just a short time. For board members and volunteers, who give of their time, money, and skills, it’s knowing that what they do really helps.

How The House Operates Each Ronald McDonald House is unique, created by a team of local citizens to meet the needs of their community. The House is owned and operated by the local not-for-profit organization created by these citizens. Local McDonald’s restaurants become involved in initial fundraising once several key elements are present: medical advisors from a hospital with a need for such a House; a parent organization comprised of people whose children have been treated or are being treat at the same hospital; and other interested and concerned volunteers. To varying degrees, all groups participate in planning, construction, furnishing, building community awareness, securing goods and services, and ongoing House operations. Other local and national companies also volunteer their support through material donations and monetary contributions. Families using the House donate $5 to $15 per day, if they can afford it. These revenues pay for part of the costs of continuing House operations.

How It Began The first Ronald McDonald House opened in Philadelphia in 1974 as the result of the perseverance and dedication of Fred Hill, then a Philadelphia Eagles football player. Today, through similar efforts by other groups of dedicated individuals, Ronald McDonald House provides temporary housing for more than 350,000 people a year in facilities throughout the United States; Canada; Australia; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Geissen, West Germany. McDonald’s Corporation assists in increasing public awareness and in providing start-up funding for the new Houses. The local not-for-profit organization operating the House can quality for $25,000 grant from Ronald McDonald’s Children’s Charities. Most importantly, it is the time and services of local volunteers and the local contributions of money and materials that make it possible for the Ronald McDonald Houses to be open and operating. Assisting in these efforts, McDonald’s restaurant franchisees, holding individual promotions around the country, have raised more than $25 million for the Ronald McDonald Houses and the families they serve. If you have questions about the national Ronald McDonald House program or wish to contact a local Ronald McDonald House regarding services, activities, volunteer work or tax deductible donations, write or call: Ronald McDonald House, 101 Warm Spring Ave., Boise, ID 83712.
