Heath Pulver is in his fourth season at Eastern, coaching tight ends for the second-straight year after helping as a student assistant for the defense the previous two years. He received his bachelor’s degree from EWU in interdisciplinary studies with a minor in art and history in 2009.

In the 2010 season, he coached honorable mention All-Big Sky Conference tight end Matt Martin, as well as a pair of young freshmen – Zack Gehring and Ryan Seto. That trio combined for 30 catches for 349 yards and three touchdowns as Eastern went on to finish 13-2 and win the NCAA Division I title.

A 2000 graduate of University High School in Spokane, Wash., Pulver redshirted as a defensive tackle at Eastern Oregon University in fall 2000. He returned and coached running backs at University High School from 2001-2002, then spent five years at Montana. He was a student manager for the Grizzlies in 2003, and from 2004-2007 he was a student assistant coach for the offense. He returned to Spokane and transferred to EWU in 2008.
