The new $30 million Mountaineer Field House was opened in the spring of 2014.
Western State Colorado University, the highest four-year institution of higher learning in the United States at 7,703 feet above sea level, opened its doors to students 103 years ago this fall and celebrated a century of educating educators three academic years ago. Western is located in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, with academic programs that take advantage of the natural laboratory that surrounds campus. The college has the only college-based Mountain Rescue Team in the nation and is consistently ranked by National Geographic and Fly Rod and Reel Magazine as one of the top colleges for students to experience outdoor recreation. Crested Butte Mountain Resort and Monarch Mountain are both within an hour drive of campus for winter sports, and Hartman Rocks features a range of activites in the summer. The City of Gunnison hosted the start of the “Queen’s Stage” of the USA Pro Cycling Tour, which several international cycling experts called one of the toughest stages to receive certification. The Mountaineers have maintained one of the top small college athletic programs in the nation, with the fourthhighest average in the history of the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. With 90 RMAC championships, 107 individual national championships and 15 national team championships, the Mountaineers have been building “Champions Out of Thin Air” since the college opened in 1911. The programs have maintained one of the top graduation rates in Division II when compared to the student body, with several programs outpacing the national average many times over.

MOUNTAINEER BOWL
FOOTBALL
Sitting at an elevation of 7,750 feet, Mountaineer bowl is the highest collegiate football and track complex in the world. The Western State Colorado University Mountaineers moved from the existing field below the current University Center to Mountaineer Bowl in 1948, and broke the new facility in with a 20-0 contest against Colorado School of Mines. Since then, the facility has seen 19 RMAC championship teams play on the surface, and was the site of the 1991 NAIA Division I National Quarterfinal game. Today, the facility can seat 4,000 fans in the permanent seating, with room for thousands more on the hillside surrounding the field. Mountaineer Bowl features a pair of press boxes - one for game-day staff and one for radio and working media. The Bowl also features an official collegiate track, which was rebuilt and resurfaced in 2006 with an eight-lane track and resurfaced again in 2010. A new scoreboard, with messageboard and audio system, was installed the year before in 2005. The facility hosted the 2008 and 2012 RMAC Outdoor Track and Field Championships. The Bowl is also used annually for the spring commencement for Western State Colorado University.

Jas Bains looks to lead the Mountaineers to victory in 2014. The Western State Colorado University Head football Coach is in his fourth season at the helm.
JAS BAINS
Bains’ first few seasons at Western have been known for his overpowering defense. In 2012, the Mountaineer defense led the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) in rush defense and ranked 16th in all of NCAA Division II, allowing only 1,139 yards. The Mountaineer defense followed that with another impressive defensive showing in 2013, again leading the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) in rush defense allowing 1,358 yards on the ground. After a season as defensive and special teams coordinator for the Mountaineer football program in 2010, Bains began his first season as Head Coach during the 2011 season. While Head Coach, Bains has spearheaded community engagement projects with the Gunnison County Partners Organization, the Colorado Department of Transportation and Gunnison County youth. The Mountaineers also hosted a free kids clinic in the spring of 2011 and will established Mountaineer Buddies, a mentoring program with the Gunnison Community Schools. Bains coached the top kick-blocking team in the RMAC in 2010 and one of the top kick-blocking teams in Division II. His defense was also ranked among the top half of the conference in interception return average and opponent fourth-down conversion. Bains spent five seasons as a member of the coaching staff at Chadron State, with the final three as special teams coordinator and defensive secondary coach.

He coached a punter and kicker to All-America honors as the special teams coordinator and tallied 30 blocked kicks in his five seasons. His punt and kickoff returners were consistently ranked among the top five in the nation. Bains graduated from Fresno State in 2004 where he helped lead the Bulldogs to three bowl victories as a defensive back and special teams player against Georgia Tech, UCLA and Virginia. He transferred to Fresno State from Willamette University, where he started at safety as a true freshman.

FOOTBALL Everyone associated with the Western State Colorado University Athletics program (coaches, staff, student-athletes, boosters) has the responsibility to comply with NCAA rules involving prospects and student-athletes. Mountaineer athletic support groups are a very valuable part of the Western Athletic Department. All present and past members of these groups are considered boosters and therefore, are held to compliance with these standards. Please review the information on what boosters may or may not do, and ask before you act. Recruiting Guidelines A Booster may: • contact a prospect as long as the booster had an established relationship prior to the student becoming a prospect and as long as there is no attempt to recruit the prospect for Western; • watch a prospect’s athletic contest (but not have contact with that prospect or the prospect’s parents); and • provide names, statistics, newspaper articles, etc. of outstanding prospects from the booster’s local area to Western coaches and staff (but not contact that prospect’s coach or school officials in order to gather materials pertaining to the prospect’s athletic or academic abilities). A Booster may not: • contact (telephone or in writing/e-mail) a prospect or his/her parents in person, for the purposes of recruiting the prospect; • make contact with a prospect or his/her parents on or off the Western campus for the purposes of recruiting his/her to Western; • mail anything to a prospect, including press releases, media guides, posters, schedule cards, etc.; • approach a Western coach who is with a prospect either on or off the Western campus; • contact or request anything (transcript, videotape) from a prospect’s counselor or coach in order to evaluate the athletic or academic ability of a prospect; and • provide any extra benefit to a prospect or his/her family or friends. Rules Regarding current Western Student-Athletes A Booster may: • provide an occasional family home meal to a student-athlete or an entire team. Such meal must take place in the home, not in a restaurant. The meal may be catered. • provide employment under certain circumstances to current student-athletes. Student-athletes must be paid the established rate (in the area for similar services) for work actually performed. A Booster may not: • provide extra benefits to any student-athlete and his/her family; • use the name or picture of a student-athlete to directly or indirectly promote the sale or use of a commercial product or service;
32
RULES FOR BOOSTERS • provide free or reduced rate housing for a student-athlete or his/her family; • hire a student-athlete to house-sit; • provide an honorarium to a student-athlete who has been approved for a speaking engagement. Student-athletes may receive only actual and necessary travel expenses to pre-approved speaking engagements; and • provide any extra benefit to a current studentathlete. Student-Athlete Employment A student-athlete may be employed during or outside the academic year, provided: • The student-athlete’s compensation does not include any remuneration for value or utility that the student-athlete may have for the employer because of the publicity, reputation, fame or personal following that he or she has obtained because of athletics ability; • The student-athlete is compensated only for work actually performed; • The student-athlete is compensated at a rate commensurate with the going rate in that locality for similar services; and Employer “Do’s” and “Don’ts” • The athletic department may arrange employment for prospects in the summer prior to their enrollment as freshmen and for enrolled student-athletes during all official vacation periods (summer, winter, spring) during the academic year. • Do not provide free transportation to and from jobs for studentathletes, unless such transportation is provided to all employees. • Do provide employment for prospective and currently enrolled student-athletes during permissible time periods and at regular pay rates for similarly qualified non-athlete employees.
