The <strong>2011</strong>-<strong>2012</strong> Men’s <strong>Basketball</strong><br />
team hopes to travel down the<br />
Road to Repeat<br />
The 2010-<strong>2011</strong> <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong> men’s basketball team accomplished something only two teams before<br />
them were able to do at CSI - win a NJCAA National Championship. Now with no returning starters but still a<br />
handful <strong>of</strong> players who were part <strong>of</strong> the incredible ride, the <strong>2011</strong>-<strong>2012</strong> will begin it’s journey down the “Road to<br />
Repeat.”<br />
Maybe most important is that the coaching staff from last season all returns to lead this year’s team.<br />
“Perhaps the best recruits we were able to re-sign for this upcoming season were our outstanding assistant<br />
coaches - Josh Dees, Ryan Devlin and Colby Blaine,” said Golden Eagle head coach Steve Gosar. “Each <strong>of</strong><br />
these guys had opportunities this summer to leave CSI, but each chose to stay and take on the challenge <strong>of</strong> trying<br />
to help us repeat as national champions. I’m very thankful for their loyalty and hard work.”<br />
On the court, Gosar will look to Fabyon Harris (guard), Kevin Attila (guard), Gerson Santo (power forward)<br />
and Paul Bunch (center), who all played minutes for the Golden Eagles last season. In addition to those four<br />
players, red-shirts Jon Pulsifer (guard), Dennis Mikelonis (forward) and Luke Cothron (forward) return, having<br />
been a part <strong>of</strong> the magical season.<br />
Pulsifer and Cothron are freshmen eligibility-wise. Mikelonis played for the Golden Eagles in 2009-2010<br />
before sitting out last season with a knee injury.<br />
CSI will look to the experience <strong>of</strong> five returning sophomores as well as incoming sophomore transfers Pat<br />

<strong>2011</strong>-12 Outlook<br />
Swilling (St. Joes University), Rafriel Guthrie (Seward County CC) and Paul Egwuonwu (Northwest Nazarene<br />
Univ.)<br />
“This year’s team is going to be fun and challenging to coach,” Gosar said. “Challenging in that we have no<br />
returning starters and only two players (Fabyon and Gerson) that were in our main rotation. Because our depth<br />
inside and the ability <strong>of</strong> some players to play multiple positions provides us many different line-up and style <strong>of</strong><br />
play options. We will explore all options throughout the early part <strong>of</strong> the season and start tailoring it down as<br />
our identity emerges and our players develop more chemistry with each other. Fun in that, once again, we have<br />
a great group <strong>of</strong> young men that work hard and will continue to get better each week throughout the season.”<br />
In addition to the eight sophomores and two red-shirt freshmen, Gosar will look to Jerran Foster (guard), Sebastien<br />
Michineau (guard), Anthony Allen (center) and Greg Sequele (forward) to get floor time. Zack Rosette<br />
(guard), Montigo Alford (guard) and Terran Leavitt (guard) will all red-shirt for CSI this season. Rosette and<br />
Leavitt will work on gaining experience, while Alford will recover from shoulder surgery.<br />
As always, getting through Region 18 play can be as tough as competing nationally.<br />
“With the high level <strong>of</strong> competition and<br />
the extreme travel, no doubt, the Scenic<br />
West Athletic Conference is the toughest<br />
junior college league in the country, “Gosar<br />
said. “The last two out <strong>of</strong> three NJCAA<br />
National Champions have come out <strong>of</strong> our<br />
league. This year will be no exception.<br />
North Idaho, Salt Lake, Snow, CEU and<br />
CNCC all return many talented players and<br />
have added many top-notch recruits.
On May 5, 2008 <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong> Idaho Athletic Director Joel Bate announced<br />
Steve Gosar as the 15th head basketball coach in the storied program’s history. The<br />
<strong>2011</strong>-12 campaign will be Gosar’s fourth season as head coach and seventh overall at<br />
CSI.<br />
Gosar recalls his first trip to CSI as a recruiter for Portland State, “I remember just<br />
thinking to myself - ‘What a special, special place.’ It was like no place I’ve ever been.<br />
And I thought if I’d ever be so lucky to have the honor to coach here, how blessed I<br />
would be.”<br />
Blessed indeed.<br />
This past season (2010-<strong>2011</strong>) was one <strong>of</strong> the most memorable ones in Golden Eagle<br />
history. Finishing 33-4, the Golden Eagles won the Scenic West Athletic Conference<br />
regular season title, the Region 18 Tournament and ended a 24-year drought <strong>of</strong> national<br />
championships by winning the school’s third NJCAA <strong>Basketball</strong> Championship. Along<br />
the way, Gosar earned Region 18, District 1 and NJCAA Coach <strong>of</strong> the Year honors as<br />
well as being honored as the Outstanding Coach <strong>of</strong> the national tournament.<br />
Guard Pierre Jackson was named SWAC Player <strong>of</strong> the Year, Region 18 Tournament<br />
MVP, NJCAA National Tournament MVP and NJCAA Player <strong>of</strong> the year. He is the first CSI player to win all four awards<br />
in a season. Kenny Buckner was named first team all-region and was named to the national tournament team. Eagle High<br />
School (Idaho) standout Mitch Bruneel was named to the all region team and the national all-tournament team. Point<br />
guard Darius Smith was named all region. Shooting guard Jerrold Brooks was named all region and made the Region 18<br />
all-tourney team.<br />
In his three seasons as a head coach, Gosar has compiled a 75-25 overall record. During the seven years that Gosar has<br />
been a part <strong>of</strong> Golden Eagle basketball, the program has had four All-Americans, 19 all-region selections, three Region 18<br />
Tournament MVPs and has helped 36 players move on to continue their education and play at four-year universities.<br />
Prior to CSI, Gosar was an assistant at Portland State for Head Coach Heath Schroyer and was key to the team’s improvement.<br />
He helped recruit a class that was ranked by collegeinsider.com as the top recruiting class in the Big Sky. With<br />
those recruits, the team earned the distinction <strong>of</strong> being one <strong>of</strong> the top three turnaround programs in the country in 2004-05.<br />
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<br />
Vikings posted a 19-9 record, the best ever in the history <strong>of</strong> the school as a Division I program. Portland State also won<br />
the Big Sky Conference regular season title, the school’s first men’s championship title since becoming a NCAA Division<br />
I program. Two players <strong>of</strong>f that team earned conference and national accolades. Will Funn was the NCAA Division I<br />
national assist leader and Seamus Boxley garnered Big Sky Player <strong>of</strong> the Year honors.<br />
Before joining the Vikings, Gosar spent two seasons working for Head Coach Steve McClain as a graduate assistant at<br />
the University <strong>of</strong> Wyoming. Those two years, the Cowboys won back-to-back Mountain West Conference Championships,<br />
including the school’s first outright conference championship in the last 20 years. The 2002 Wyoming team made it to the<br />
second round <strong>of</strong> the NCAA Tournament with a first-round win over Gonzaga.<br />
Originally from Pinedale, Wyo., Gosar played his collegiate ball at Wyoming, earning a bachelor’s degree in molecular<br />
biology. Gosar is married to Lu. They have three boys - Jake, Jaxon and Jace.<br />

Steve Gosar has served a<br />
key role in the Golden<br />
Eagles’ recent success. He<br />
helped CSI to the national<br />
tournament in two <strong>of</strong> his<br />
three years as an assistant.<br />
In <strong>2011</strong>, Gosar led CSI to<br />
its third NJCAA National<br />
Championship.<br />

Josh Dees begins his fourth season with the <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong> Idaho men’s basketball<br />
program.<br />
Dees has been here since day one <strong>of</strong> Steve Gosar’s head coaching career at CSI and<br />
has helped rebuild the program from having only 1 returning player for the 2008-2009<br />
season to winning the NJCAA National Championship this past year when the Golden<br />
Eagles defeated Midland <strong>College</strong> 72-64 in the title game. In his first three seasons at<br />
CSI, the Golden Eagles have amassed a record <strong>of</strong> 75-25.<br />
Dees’ duties on the CSI staff include recruiting, game-scouting, and working with<br />
the development <strong>of</strong> CSI’s guard players. Dees had an integral role in the development<br />
<strong>of</strong> past CSI guards Pierre Jackson (2010-<strong>2011</strong> National Player <strong>of</strong> the Year, Baylor signee), Carrick Felix (Arizona State),<br />
Darius Smith (UCONN transfer, Eastern Illinois signee), and Charles Odum (Portland St, Big Sky New-comer <strong>of</strong> the<br />
year). Since coming on-board at CSI, Dees has established himself as a strong recruiter not only in the South, but also<br />
across the nation.<br />
Dees came to CSI from Colorado State where he was a graduate assistant in 2007. Prior to that, he played basketball<br />
at the University <strong>of</strong> Wyoming and then Western Carolina University as a point guard. He was named to the All-<strong>Southern</strong><br />
Conference Academic Team and was named Western Carolina’s student-athlete <strong>of</strong> the year in 2006-2007. In the spring<br />
<strong>of</strong> 2007, he graduated Suma Cum Laude from Western Carolina with a bachelor’s degree in political science/pre-law. In<br />
2008, he received the WCU Political Science Distinguished Graduate Award.<br />
While in college, Dees served as an assistant camp director at Billy Gillespie’s University <strong>of</strong> Kentucky basketball<br />
camps as well as assisted at Steve McClain’s University<br />
<strong>of</strong> Wyoming basketball camps. In 2006, Dees<br />
was a Special Olympic Coach, training Jason Hedrick<br />
for the 2006 Special Olympics Summer Games. Hedrick<br />
earned gold in the 200 meters and silver in the<br />
400 meters at the event.<br />
Josh is the son <strong>of</strong> Benny Dees who was Gosar’s<br />
head coach at the University <strong>of</strong> Wyoming. Benny also<br />
was the head coach at New Orleans, Virginia Commonwealth,<br />
and Western Carolina.<br />
Josh is married to the former Jennifer Nunn. Jennifer<br />
is a pharmacist at the local Wal-greens in Twin<br />
Falls. They have a bulldog named Alfred.<br />
“I’m not sure I’ve been around a guy that works harder at not<br />
only being a good coach but also helping kids than Josh.<br />
Josh does a great job recruiting as well as mentoring and<br />
coaching our basketball players. He has all the pieces and is<br />
ready to be a very successful head coach.” Coach Gosar<br />

Assistant Coach<br />
4th Season
Ryan Devlin begins his third season as an assistant coach with the <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong><br />
Idaho men’s basketball program, while coaching under the <strong>2011</strong> NJCAA National<br />
Coach <strong>of</strong> the Year, Steve Gosar.<br />
Devlin has been with the Golden Eagles for two seasons, holding a record <strong>of</strong> 53-16,<br />
while also winning the <strong>2011</strong> NJCAA National Championship in Hutchinson, Kansas<br />
by defeating Midland (TX) <strong>College</strong> 72-64. En route to the National Championship,<br />
the Golden Eagles won the regular season and conference championship in Region 18.<br />
The Eagles were led the whole season by the <strong>2011</strong> National Player <strong>of</strong> the Year, Pierre<br />
Jackson, who is now attending Baylor University. In the two seasons thus far Devlin<br />
has been able to coach 11 student- athletes that are now attending NCAA Division I programs.<br />
Devlin brings energy and enthusiasm to the court as he enters his 7th season <strong>of</strong> coaching. He began his coaching<br />
career at Bowling Brook Preparatory School in Keymar, Maryland. He later advanced to assistant coach at Hagerstown<br />
Community <strong>College</strong> in Hagerstown, MD where he coached under Terry Truax, a longtime Division I coach, and assistant<br />
<strong>of</strong> Dean Smith at the University <strong>of</strong> North Carolina. When Truax left the program, Devlin took over as interim head coach,<br />
improving the team’s record from 8-22 to 23-8 in one season. Because <strong>of</strong> this turn around, he caught the attention <strong>of</strong> Stu<br />
Vetter, two-time national high school coach <strong>of</strong> the year and Hall <strong>of</strong> Fame high school coach, and was <strong>of</strong>fered a position on<br />
his coaching staff at Montrose Christian School, home <strong>of</strong> Kevin Durant.<br />
It was at Montrose where Devlin sharpened his recruiting skills by bringing in top prospects from the United States<br />
and Africa, including Mouphtaou Yarou (10th ranked high school player in the country in 2009 and attending Villanova<br />
University), Terrence Ross (top 25 player in the country<br />
in 2010 and attending the University <strong>of</strong> Washington),<br />
and Justin Anderson (<strong>2011</strong> Top 30 player in the<br />
country, <strong>2011</strong> Boost Mobile Elite 24 MVP and will<br />
be attending University <strong>of</strong> Virginia).<br />
During his time at Montrose they compiled a record<br />
<strong>of</strong> 21-3 and were ranked #1 by the Washington<br />
Post, finishing 6th in the country by USA Today, and<br />
participated in the inaugural ESPN RISE National<br />
High School Invite.<br />
Devlin earned his bachelor’s degree from the<br />
University <strong>of</strong> Pittsburgh. He resides in Twin Falls<br />
with his wife, Erin who also works at CSI.<br />
“Ryan has an unbelievable amount <strong>of</strong> recruiting ties all over<br />
the country. He brings great energy and enthusiasm to the<br />
floor and in dealing with our players. Our post players have<br />
really flourished under Ryan’s direction.” Coach Gosar<br />

3rd Season
Colby Blaine begins his third season with the <strong>College</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Southern</strong> Idaho men’s basketball<br />
program and under Head Coach Steve Gosar (<strong>2011</strong> NJCAA National Coach <strong>of</strong><br />
the Year). Blaine has accumulated a 53-16 record while at CSI. During Blaine’s second<br />
year, the Golden Eagles became the 2010-<strong>2011</strong> regular season and region 18 tournament<br />
champions. That success led CSI back to Hutchinson, Kansas, for the national<br />
tournament where the Golden Eagles won four straight games, defeating Midland<br />
<strong>College</strong> in the championship and were crowned the <strong>2011</strong> NJCAA National Champions.<br />
In Blaine’s two seasons with CSI, he has worked closely with 11 players that have<br />
moved onto Division I programs, including the <strong>2011</strong> National Player <strong>of</strong> the Year, Pierre<br />
Jackson (Baylor).<br />
Blaine started his coaching career at The University <strong>of</strong> Montana Western where he was an assistant under Montana Hall<br />
<strong>of</strong> Fame Coach, Steve Keller. In two seasons with the Bulldogs, Blaine helped develop a strong recruiting base in the<br />
Northwest. The Bulldogs improved each year and have developed into a national contender for the last three seasons.<br />
Blaine grew up in Boise, ID where he graduated from Boise High School in 2005. After high school, Blaine attended<br />
Blue Mountain Community <strong>College</strong> where he was a member <strong>of</strong> the men’s basketball team. He graduated from BMCC in<br />
2007 with his associate <strong>of</strong> arts degree. Blaine then attended The University <strong>of</strong> Montana Western where he graduated Suma<br />
Cum Laude with a bachelor’s degree in social science/history in the spring <strong>of</strong> 2009. Upon graduation, he made the move<br />
to CSI and recently graduated from Idaho State University with his Masters in Athletic Administration during the summer<br />
<strong>of</strong> <strong>2011</strong>.<br />
While Blaine’s coaching career is short, he has amassed<br />
some great accolades and experiences. As a college<br />
student, Blaine worked camps across the country including<br />
Boise State, Montana, Montana State, Utah, Stanford,<br />
Duke and Maryland. Blaine was also the founder and director<br />
<strong>of</strong> TRDcamps.com, LLC, which provided basketball<br />
camps for more than 500 athletes in Eastern Oregon<br />
during the 2006-08 summers. Most recently, Blaine has<br />
worked with the Idaho Select AAU program during the<br />
last two summers as the head coach for the U17 team.<br />
Blaine is the son <strong>of</strong> Rob Blaine and Dana Nelson. He<br />
has an older brother, Ryan, and older sister, Cassidy.<br />
“Colby has a bright future in coaching basketball. He pays<br />
great attention to detail and really understands the game.<br />
He is the consummate team player and is willing to do all<br />
the little things that may go unnoticed but are so essential<br />
to winning. He does an outstanding job <strong>of</strong> skill development<br />
with out players as well as organize all <strong>of</strong> our summer camps<br />
and clinics.” Coach Gosar<br />

“Rafriel is a strong athletic guard that can really get to the rim. He has<br />
a special ability to score the ball either on the perimeter or on the<br />
block. As he continues to learn our defense, he could be a lock-down<br />
defender for us.” Coach Gosar<br />

McDonald’s, locally owned and operated by Bill and<br />
Donna Kyle in Twin Falls, Burley and Jerome sponsors<br />
the CSI Golden Eagles and the McSlam-n-Jam. The<br />
money pledged for every dunk during home Golden Eagle<br />
basketball games is split between CSI Athletics and the<br />
Ronald McDonald House.<br />
The Reason<br />
When a child becomes seriously ill, the whole family suffers, particularly if the child must be hospitalized or receive outpatient<br />
treatment far away from home for extended periods <strong>of</strong> time.<br />
To be with their child, parents <strong>of</strong>ten sleep on uncomfortable chairs or cots, or bear the expense and impersonal atmosphere <strong>of</strong><br />
a hotel room. At a time when they want all their strength available for their child, the simple demands <strong>of</strong> everyday life can seem<br />
overwhelming.<br />
For these families, Ronald McDonald House <strong>of</strong>fers a refuge from the hospital, a home-away-from-home, where they can have a<br />
room <strong>of</strong> their own, a comfortable bed, kitchen and laundry facilities, toys for the kids, and a cup <strong>of</strong> hot c<strong>of</strong>fee.<br />
Ronald McDonald House<br />
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<br />
hospital.<br />
For a brother or sister who cannot be there, it’s knowing that other family members are safe while away in a strange city.<br />
For the parents in the House, it’s knowing that they are not alone, that others have gone through similar situations and survived.<br />
It’s new parents getting practical advice from “veterans.” It’s people drawing hope and strength from late-night conversations in<br />
corridors and kitchens, sharing experiences that can be difficult for family and friends back home to fully understand.<br />
And, it’s a place to treasure every moment <strong>of</strong> having a child “home,” even if for just a short time.<br />
For board members and volunteers, who give <strong>of</strong> their time, money, and skills, it’s knowing that what they do really helps.<br />
How The House Operates<br />
Each Ronald McDonald House is unique, created by a team <strong>of</strong> local citizens to meet the needs <strong>of</strong> their community. The House is<br />
owned and operated by the local not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it organization created by these citizens.<br />
Local McDonald’s restaurants become involved in initial fundraising once several key elements are present: medical advisors from<br />
a hospital with a need for such a House; a parent organization comprised <strong>of</strong> people whose children have been treated or are being treat<br />
at the same hospital; and other interested and concerned volunteers.<br />
To varying degrees, all groups participate in planning, construction, furnishing, building community awareness, securing goods<br />
and services, and ongoing House operations. Other local and national companies also volunteer their support through material donations<br />
and monetary contributions.<br />
Families using the House donate $5 to $15 per day, if they can afford it. These revenues pay for part <strong>of</strong> the costs <strong>of</strong> continuing<br />
House operations.<br />
How It Began<br />
The first Ronald McDonald House opened in Philadelphia in 1974 as the result <strong>of</strong> the perseverance and dedication <strong>of</strong> Fred Hill,<br />
then a Philadelphia Eagles football player.<br />
Today, through similar efforts by other groups <strong>of</strong> dedicated individuals, Ronald McDonald House provides temporary housing for<br />
more than 350,000 people a year in facilities throughout the United States; Canada; Australia; Amsterdam, Netherlands; Geissen, West<br />
Germany.<br />
McDonald’s Corporation assists in increasing public awareness and in providing start-up funding for the new Houses. The local<br />
not-for-pr<strong>of</strong>it organization operating the House can quality for $25,000 grant from Ronald McDonald’s Children’s Charities.<br />
Most importantly, it is the time and services <strong>of</strong> local volunteers and the local contributions <strong>of</strong> money and materials that make it<br />
possible for the Ronald McDonald Houses to be open and operating.<br />
Assisting in these efforts, McDonald’s restaurant franchisees, holding individual promotions around the country, have raised more<br />
than $25 million for the Ronald McDonald Houses and the families they serve.<br />
