A member of Nebraska’s senior athletic administration since May 2003, Marc Boehm (pronounced
BAME) serves as executive associate athletic director and is the top assistant to the athletic director.
Boehm fulfills the director’s responsibilities in his absence and also serves as the department’s chief
operating officer.
Boehm oversees the efforts of several areas within athletics, including the Nebraska Athletic
Development office, ticket operations, event management and guest services. He also oversees the
Nebraska men’s and women’s basketball programs. Boehm serves as the liaison to Pinnacle Bank Arena,
the NU Foundation and the Nebraska Alumni Association.
Boehm, who previously oversaw the efforts of the facilities, marketing, media relations and
HuskerVision areas within the athletic department, played a primary role in negotiations for Nebraska’s
contract extension with IMG College Sports. To date, it is the largest multi-media rights contract in
college athletics.
As the primary administrator for the NU basketball programs, Boehm played an integral role in the
hiring of Tim Miles as Nebraska’s coach in March of 2012. In 2013-14, Miles earned the Jim Phelan
Award as the national coach of the year, after capturing Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year honors from his
peers earlier in the season.
Boehm also played a lead role during the men’s and women’s basketball programs moved into
Pinnacle Bank Arena in 2013-14. He also worked to help develop Nebraska’s new practice facility - the
Hendricks Training Complex - which opened in October of 2011.
Boehm has worked to create a fan-friendly atmosphere at men’s and women’s basketball, leading
to record-setting attendances and season ticket sales for both programs.
In 2013-14, the men’s basketball program sold out its season tickets for the entire season in May
of 2013 in anticipation of the first season at Pinnacle Bank Arena and Coach Miles’ second Husker
team. The more than 15,000 Husker fans that packed the new arena watched the Big Red roll to a 15-1
home record on their way to the 2014 NCAA Tournament. It was the fifth postseason trip for the men’s
basketball program since Boehm’s arrival.
NU ranked 13th nationally in average home attendance (15,419) on its way to a top-four regular-season
finish with an 11-7 record in the powerful Big Ten Conference while going 19-13 overall.
Under Boehm’s supervision, Coach Connie Yori’s women’s basketball program has enjoyed the most
success in school history over the past eight years. The Husker women have earned six NCAA Tournament
bids, including a pair of NCAA Sweet 16 appearances in 2010 and 2013 and two more trips to the NCAA
second round. The Huskers have produced the four highest single-season win totals in NU history over
the past six years. The Big Red have also finished the season ranked in the top 25 in four of the past six
seasons - the first four top-25 final national rankings in school history.
In 2013-14, Yori’s Huskers won their first-ever conference tournament title, claiming the Big Ten
crown with a 3-0 run at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The Huskers finished with a 26-7 overall
record that included a 12-4 Big Ten mark for the second straight year. NU earned a No. 4 seed in the
NCAA Tournament and advanced to the second round.
Boehm also played a lead role in bringing NCAA Tournament basketball back to Lincoln for the first time
since 1993, as the Husker women played host to the NCAA Lincoln Regional. Eventual national champion
Connecticut, Texas A&M, DePaul and BYU battled it out for a spot in the 2014 NCAA Women’s Final Four.
The two sessions attracted well over 17,000 fans as one of the most successful sites in the tournament.
During the regular season, the Husker women ranked No. 8 nationally in total home attendance with
more than 110,000 fans flocking to the arena as the Huskers tied a school record with 16 home victories.
NU’s average home attendance of 6,161 fans per game ranked 11th in the country.
Yori, who joined Miles in winning Big Ten Coach-of-the-Year honors from the conference coaches in
2014, earned her third league coach-of-the- 啅ȁ
