Following the resignation of Dave Brandon as athletic director of the University of Michigan, the Oakland Press published a story Saturday link-ing Central Michigan University athletic director Dave Heeke to the now vacant position.

According to reporter Drew Ellis, Heeke was contacted by U-M last week to gauge his interest in the job.

A CMU ath-letic depart-ment communications official said the department cannot comment on the Oakland Press report.

Heeke was been with CMU since 2005. He previously served as an associate athletic director at the University of Oregon for 18 years.

In June 2013, Heeke was appointed to the Division I Ath-letic Director Advisory Group, which provides feedback on issues of concern in Division I athletics.

In July, Heeke was named the chair of the NCAA Division I baseball committee.

At the April 2014 CMU Board of Trustees meeting, President George Ross called Heeke “the best athletic director in America.”

Senior wide receiver Titus Davis’s leaping second-quarter touchdown grab, moved the Central Michigan University football team’s lead over Eastern Michigan University to 28-0 and put the game away early.

The Chippewas (6-4, 4-2 MAC) came into Saturday’s matchup with Eastern Michigan University (2-7, 1-4 MAC) ahead in almost every statistical category on paper. On the field, the result was the same.

“I had a good feeling it was going to be a good game for us,” said junior run-ning back Saylor Lavallii. “At halftime we all got together and said it’s not going to be one or two guys, we’re all going to eat a little bit.”

Out of the five departments in the College of Education and Human Services, the department of Human Environmental Studies raises the most revenue.

This year, the HES brought in $13.9 million in revenue from state appropriations and tuition. This was the highest of all other departments and accounted for 29 percent of the

college’s overall revenue.The areas focus on the interaction

between humans and their natural, constructed and behavioral environ-ments. The programs within envi-ronmental studies prepare students for a variety of careers in apparel, merchandising and design, nutrition, dietetics, commercial and residen-tial interior design, early childhood education and family services.

After a resolution was proposed by the Student Government As-sociation to create LGBTQ-specific housing, its denial raised several questions about housing for LGBTQ students at Central Michigan Uni-versity.

Gender-neutral housing, an op-tion that allows transgender and gender nonconforming students to live together regardless of their sex, is intended to provide students a safe living environment.

When the present SGA adminis-tration brought up the resolution, it was dismissed as discriminatory and many concerns about the ramifica-tions were high emotions.

Kai Niezgoda, a Royal Oak junior who identifies as genderqueer and uses gender-neutral pronouns including they, them and theirs,

lived in gender-inclusive dorms in Larzelere Hall for two years.

“If I hadn’t known someone else gender nonconforming when I got to Central, I wouldn’t have had a roommate,” Niezgoda said. “I think that would have impacted my expe-rience negatively.”

Genderqueer is a term that describes individual who do not feel that their gender identity fits with the cultural norms of their biological sex.

In some circumstances, room-mates who are insensitive have turned deadly.

Rutgers University freshmanTy-ler Clementi killed himself in 2010 after learning his roommate filmed him having a sexual encounter with a man. His roommate was con-victed of 15 criminal charges and served 20 days in jail.

Housing still a problem, some LGBtQ students say

The 2013-14 staff of Central Michigan Life, under the leader-ship of ’14 graduates Catey Traylor and Justin Hicks, was awarded the Associated Col-legiate Press Pacemaker Award on Saturday. The award is widely considered to be one of the highest honors in collegiate journalism.

Pacemaker finalists were announced in September and winners were announced at the close of the 93rd Annual ACP/CMA National College Media Convention, held this year in Philadelphia.

The award is the fourth for CM Life within the last 10 years. CM Life won the award last year, once in 2010 and another in 2006.

Traylor helmed the staff in the Fall 2013 semester and Hicks took over as editor-in-chief in the Spring 2014 semes-ter. Pacemakers are judged on coverage and content, quality of writing and reporting, lead-ership on the opinion page, evidence of in-depth report-ing, design, photography, art and graphics.

The Centers for Disease Control reports that suicide is the third leading cause of death for people ages 15-25 and members for the LG-BTQ community are more at risk than heterosexuals.

In the spring 2014 semes-ter, a resolution endorsed by Spectrum and Transcend, student organizations for students who are in the LG-BTQ community, was passed in the SGA. The resolution would ask students on the housing questionnaire if they would be comfortable living with someone who identifies as LGBTQ.

Founder and executive director Shane Windmeyer of Campus Pride, a national nonprofit that provides re-sources to LGBTQ students, said he heard about the resolution in SGA because he knows a student that at-tends CMU.

Students who proposed it were misguided, Windmey-er said, but their concerns about safety are legitimate.

“The LGBTQ students who proposed this had a very good reason for do-ing so,” Windmeyer said. “Everyone deserves to be in a housing situation where they feel safe.”

He said Campus Pride suggests universities have a “theme” or “living-learning hall” for LGBTQ and ally students.

Theme halls are places where students who identify in the community can live and be among like-minded people. A living-learning hall is where students both live and are educated throughout the year about issues related to the LGBTQ community.

Universities that have theme halls or houses specifically for the LG-BTQ community and allies include the University of California-Berkeley, Uni-versity of California-Irvine, Wesleyan University and

University of Southern Maine. Windmeyer said uni-versities need to be proac-tive when it comes to hous-ing for LGBTQ students.

Niezgoda said gender-neutral housing is done on an individual basis outside the housing system. They have personally worked with the university to create more awareness for gender-neutral housing.

“When I first signed up for it, I was unable to locate any info on the CMU web-site, and eventually found it by Googling a very specific pair of search terms,” Niez-goda said. “Information on it is now more readily avail-able on the housing website, and from my understanding there is now a blurb about it on the regular housing sign-up form.”

Warren sophomore Precious-Angel Jennings was the SGA representative for Spectrum last year and worked on the resolution.

She said Spectrum came up with the idea for the question after other members talk about some of their friend’s experiences of being harassed in the dorm. Jennings said she feels people misunderstood the intention of the resolution.

“The proposal was not to out people based on their sexual orientation, but to be more comfortable and be able to live in a comfortable situation,” Jennings said. “I think people should have thought about the question more in depth.”

Niezgoda said they sup-ported the resolution be-cause the gender-inclusive

housing system requires students to contact the office directly. This can be problematic for students who are not open about their gender expression.

Niezgoda said that they have a friend who identi-fies as genderqueer, but was not out to their parents, and therefore did not take advantage of the gender-inclusive housing.

“They have had to switch rooms to get away from homophobic and transpho-bic roommates who were extremely hostile toward them, which is completely unacceptable,” Niezgoda said. “Students who have never experienced anti-LGBTQ violence, ha-rassment and discrimination cannot possibly have a nu-anced enough understand-ing of the issue to determine whether or not such a policy is relevant or important.”

CMU is one of 153 public universities that provides gender-inclusive housing for transgender and gender nonconforming students.

With senior running back Thomas Rawls on the sidelines due to a knee injury he suffered last week against Buffalo, Lavallii, freshman Devon Spalding and sopho-more Martez Walker torched the Eagles defense.

Coming into Saturday, all CMU running backs not named Thomas Rawls had combined for 336 yards and three touch-downs on 169 carries.

The trio combined for 283 rushing yards and four touch-downs on 51 carries Saturday.

“They called me and told me to stay ready if my number is called,” Spalding said. “I’m

always ready. It’s football and what I’ve done since I was 8. It wasn’t me. Our offensive line opened bigger holes than I’ve ever seen playing college football. It was easy, I couldn’t do wrong with those holes.”

With the win, the Chippe-was are one of three Mid-American Conference teams that are now bowl eligible. Northern Illinois and Western Michigan are the other two.

EMU became the fourth MAC team to be guaranteed to miss the bowl season with the loss Saturday.

“We just kept our foot on the throat,” said senior linebacker Justin Cherocci. “Don’t let up, that’s the mentality we have. We wanted (the shutout) bad. We thought we had it, too.”

EMU freshman starting quarterback Reginald Bell

Jr. left the game with a head injury after EMU’s first drive, on which the Eagles went three-and-out.

Bell was EMU’s leading rusher on the day with 12 yards.

“We just knew when he came out of the game, (EMU quarterback Rob) Bolden wasn’t going to be as mobile as (Bell Jr.),” said senior defensive tackle Leterrius Walton. “The game plan didn’t change.”

Eastern Michigan’s only score came on its final drive, which started in the red zone at the CMU six-yard line fol-lowing a punt block.

The Chippewas outgained the Eagles 501 yards to 97.

CMU has a bye week next week and will face Miami (Ohio) and Western Michigan in the final two games of the regular season.

is one of the reasons it is so popular.

“They’re [the students] able to practice their skills in a safe environment and an environment where they have experienced teachers that can help them with it because they’re here to gain the experience and practice those skills,” Gursky said.

Apparel Merchandising and Design professor Carol Beard said her program helps students move into the world of design and that’s why they take up this program. Teaching students to get involved is one of the major focuses of apparel merchandising and design.

“If you’re a design student you want to have a lot of your own personal work out there, so develop your portfolio be-cause you don’t want to just stick to coursework,” Beard said. “Do hands-on things. If you do just the stuff that’s in your course work if you’re a design student you aren’t going to get a very good job. Get as much on your resume as possible.”

Along with undergraduate programs, graduate programs are carefully monitored in EHS in order to reflect current methods in subject areas. Graduates have high job placement rates in both private and public careers.

Savannah Morris, a Woodhaven freshman, is slowly forgetting what the world outside of the theater in Moore Hall looks like after spending the last six weeks working as assis-tant stage manger for the play Oakton High Homecoming Dance, 1999.

Rehearsals were Sunday through Friday from 7-10 p.m. As assistant stage manager, she had to arrive at least fifteen minutes early every day and remain there until the rehearsal ended. On show days, she worked from 5:30-10 p.m. to make sure every-thing ran smoothly.

“I think that hardest part of stage managing is trying to be a leader of a group of people who are the same age as you,” Morris said. “It’s really hard to have a student leadership role when you’re so young, especially because I’m just a freshman. I just got here, so no one knows me. Trying to get them to respect me and listen to me is the hardest part.”

She considers herself “more chilled back” compared to most stage managers, Morris said, and tried to not be too strict. She jokes around with the crew, believing that she doesn’t need to be completely strict and rude to get her point across.

“You can get your point across and they’ll like you and respect you, which is what you really want,” she said.

Morris’ job required her to create a floor plan and to decide which crew member did what movement for each scene change. Each scene change was required to be only eight seconds long, and if it lasted any longer, “then it needed to be worked on.”

Damon Hunter, a Grayling senior, isn’t a stranger to how picky theater directors can be. As sound board designer and operator, he often had to create obscure sounds like a meteor crashing through the atmosphere, which he admits was not an easy task.

“You can’t just look that up online

and see how it sounds, so you have to use your imagination,” Hunter said. “Even then, the director may say, ‘no, I want something like this,’ so you just have to take what you had and manipulate it.”

He spent hours creating sound effects and researching 90s music to include during certain scenes. He took these songs and created a play-list to see what direction to take.

“I like seeing how music helps tell the story and helps relay what characters are feeling or experienc-ing,” Hunter said.

But the most enticing part of working backstage isn’t what the characters are feeling, but what the audience is experiencing.

Oakton High required late 90s music, much of which were mostly alternative and not as well known. However, more famous artists like Cher were used during party scenes.

“It’s exciting to see how the audiences react,” said Hubbardston freshman Hope Miller. “Sometimes they won’t laugh at all or they’ll laugh all the time. One night, we had a bunch Satanists or something because they laughed when there wasn’t a joke, but at like domestic abuse or when a gay guy gets beat up, and it’s like dude that’s not funny! You’re supposed to laugh at this part, not that part.”

Oakton High was Miller’s first experience doing crew as she pri-marily acts. She found the hardest part being on crew was learning where everything goes.

“The two people who showed us where everything goes know where everything goes because they’ve been working on it forever, but the crew is kind of like ‘what do we do?’,” Miller said. “It’s when the crew gets the routine down and everything comes together that makes the job worthwhile.”

at the right moment is what made Hunter fall in love with theater.

“You’re creating a story for the audiences to follow along,” he said. “You’re taking ideas from a writer and words on a page and making this three dimensional interactive story.”

Morris is aware of the stress that comes with creating this story and understands that those outside of theater may not be aware of the work put into each production.

“A lot of people don’t realize how much work goes in backstage ... they never really pay atten-tion to how hard it is for the crew to memorize each and every set. Within this particular show, we have 17 parts and six interludes. So it’s difficult to memorize that,” Morris said. “I know that for my crew, that has been here a few weeks now, still sometimes needs a paper to revert to.”

Initiation, pinning and Founder’s Day are all words that may not mean much to students — unless they are a part of Greek Life.

Rituals are the tradi-tions and ceremonies of a fraternity or sorority. These rituals are almost always private and only known

by members of a fraternal organization, after they are initiated into the organiza-tion.

“What makes rituals important to myself, as well as my chapter, is that it shows you what being a member of that sorority really means,” said Whit-more Lake senior Kelsey Fearer. “It outlines our his-tory, values and a lot more.

However, living your ritual is what you strive to do and be in your daily life.”

Though all Greek orga-nizations have rituals, each chapter does something different according to their specific values. The importance of these rituals is to keep members’ values in line with each chapter and to unify members with other students in their

fraternity or sorority.“Our chapters are made

up of different members with similar values,” said Port Sanilac junior Lucie Sertich. “Ritual doesn’t change; it is universal, yet unique to our specific organizations. It goes back to the early days when our founders started these or-ganizations, and hold their traditions to the chapters

we have grown to be today.Rituals give members

ideals to live up to that connect them to students in their own organiztion and people across the nation.

“Ritual helps us believe in something bigger than ourselves,” said Hillsdale senior Megan Isabell. “It reminds us that it’s not just for four years. It’s for a lifetime.”

I’d like to give hugs to the members of the edito-rial board of this newspa-per, but I also have a duty to comment on things that I consider misleading. On Friday, Central Michigan Life published an edito-rial called, “Give Survi-vors a Say” in regards to whether or not rapists ought to be expelled.

I have two responses for this, one as an organizer of the protest, to expel all rap-ists, and another as a public safety issue.

I have gotten dozen of emails, and so have other organizers of the protest speaking out in favor of this movement. I have not had one survivor come forward to me saying anything nega-tive about the campaign to expel all rapists.

In fact, I have heard from survivors who went through the disciplinary proceedings who practi-cally begged the school to expel their rapist so that they may not return to cam-pus. Every single time the school let the rapist come back to campus at some point or another, usually after one year.

Which leads me to my second argument: Pub-lic safety. I have posted time and time again my resolution that I wrote as a member of the Student Government Association includes a study which demonstrates that of 120 rapists, over 1,000 acts of violence were committed.

Expelling rapists from campus is not just a sym-bolic move to say that Cen-tral Michigan University does not tolerate this sort of behavior, but it’s a pub-lic safety issue. If a person who is found responsible for rape is allowed to come back onto campus, that is opening Pandora’s box to more crime being commit-ted. If Central Michigan University really stood by “Take Care CMU,” the responsible decision, to protect other students, is to remove the offender from campus.

Survivor’s voices are so incredibly important. I my-self am one. But what the Wednesday editorial failed to recognize is the danger of having known sexual of-fenders on campus. It is not safe, and it is not ethical. Every survivor who I have talked to who went through the disciplinary process had wished their attacker to be expelled and not able to return to campus.

Expelling rapists is a public safety issue. Students accused of rape deserve the highest hearing with utmost integrity, but when found guilty, it is the moral duty of the school to per-manently remove these of-fenders from the university.

It’s a matter

Tomorrow, you can help make a dif-ference in your community by casting your vote.

Older folks tell us that our genera-tion doesn’t care about fighting for our rights. We’re told that our generation only cares about playing nice with each other and institutions in an effort to avoid the political conflicts we see play out on our phones and TV screens once every two years.

It’s time for you to challenge that stereotype and get yourself to a voting booth on Nov. 4.

The affluence of our state depends on you, and the power of change lies in the palms of your hands. In that spirit, we encourage every student who is registered to vote to continue what we’ve observed as a rejuvenated interest in the political process.

As a newspaper, our foremost pur-pose is to foster debate and conversa-tion. Seeing the spirited debates taking place on our comment sections and social media feeds shows that our read-ership cares deeply.

This year, through forums, presenta-tions and protests, we’ve observed more and more students apt to share where they stand on either side of the political spectrum. At Central Michigan Universi-ty students wear their political identities around campus like a badge of honor.

Don’t let your political ideologies become meaningles. Cast a vote in favor of those beliefs.

Despite these displays of activism and outreach, some students remain critical of politics by virtue of their ages. Putting so much stock in one candidate or cause can disillusion for once proud followers if said candidate or cause doesn’t pan out the way we think it should.

For some, the risk is just too great to get over. Yet voting can be simple for these students and drastically less con-flicting if they stay educated on the issues and the candidates themselves. To actu-ally learn more about candidates running for office, read more than their campaign materials or their TV attack ads.

You can defend yourself against biases by visiting websites like politifact.com or

votesmart.org for detailed lists of candi-date voting records so you never have to vote for a bad politician again.

Local residents who have sent letters to the editors of Central Michigan Life within the past few months share the same belief; they are convinced that if every student on CMU’s campus votes tomorrow, the election could be swayed with such a dramatic and surprising sweep, it could move just one candidate from barely tied to a surging lead.

Think about it: With enough votes, marijuana could be decriminalized in the city of Mount Pleasant for the first time ever. That means our college town could join the likes of Jackson and Grand Rapids, ensuring that you as students have more freedoms than you did the year prior, that is, if you chose to partake.

Your vote could be the difference between four more years of Gov. Rick Snyder or a brand new start with former Congressman Mark Schauer.

This election will decide much for how we as Michiganders view ourselves for decades to come. Many of our students know this fact, but for those that don’t, this editiorial serves as a rallying cry.

It’s hard to tell which is the right side of history in these debates, but if we don’t take a side, then we’re doing something worse.

Much worse, we’ll stand for nothing at all. Don’t let us be the generation who stood idly by as history flashed forward.

Michigan needs youIf students are concerned about Michigan’s future - who’s running

it and how - then now is the time for them to get out there and actually do something about it.

Family-owned Shin’s Kore-an Restaurant attracts loyal customers from students to faculty members by offering a distinct taste of Korea.

“The food we serve is very authentic food where a lot of other Korean places have an Americanized menu,” said owner Makayla Shin said.

Operated by Joy Jung, Tom Shin and Makayla, their daughter, the family was drawn to the area after visiting a family member. In the summer of 2010, they fell in love with Mount Pleasant and decided to open the restaurant, located on 1620 S. Mission St.

Ordering from a Korean

menu is sometimes difficult because the names of dishes are not spelled consistently in transliteration and their descriptions are often rudi-mentary. There also are no directions on how to eat the unfamiliar foods.

Because the Korean alpha-bet contains sounds that are not similar to those of the English alphabet, there are often several ways to spell the same word. For example, bulgogi, finely shaved slices of tender beef marinated in soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar and garlic, can be spelled six different ways.

The two most popular dishes are bulgogi and dolsot bibimbob, rice and vegeta-bles served with an egg that is cooked while stirring.

Each customer is known

by name because of their loyalty, creating a more personalized experience. A studio group of students for music composition come in each Friday after class.

Graduate student Stephen Lounsbrough heard about the place from fellow stu-dents and wanted to check it out with his studio.

“It’s a cool place and more people should come and check it out,” Loun-sbrough said.

Ionia junior Ryan Elvert came with the studio class for his first time experienc-ing the authentic Korean cuisine.

“They said it was really good,” Elvert said. “It’s a lot different than home-cooked casseroles and the usual hamburgers.”

Dog Central continues to thrive as one of the few downtown options for a late-night snack with friends.

Owner Paul McFall will be looking to expand in the next two years either by enlarging the 111 E. Michigan St. loca-tion or moving into another one altogether. He said he is also looking at expanding to other cities.

Before Dog Central, ordering delivery meals could satisfy late-night cravings, but McFall noticed there was no real option downtown to sit and eat with friends. Modeled after restaurants like Dog Pit and Yesterdog from Grand Rapids, he created his own business in February 2011.

“This is a student-driven business,” McFall said. “Our roots are for the students.”

Each of the workers are

students at Central Michigan University. Even the owner, Paul McFall, is a Central Michigan University alumnus.

Since then, he has watched patrons go out to bars or hang out on the weekends and after classes. This con-tinues to be his recipe for success with an overflowing crowd Thursday through Saturday, when they stay open until 3 a.m.

As part of their continued growth, Dog Central recently acquired a mobile cart to help customers during their late-night hunger. The hotdog cart is available to be booked for private, corporate and gradu-ation parties.

The restaurant will enter into the technological world with a new mobile applica-tion for purchasing items such as T-shirts, hats and gift cards. It will include an option to watch a live feed of the inside and find the live locations of the hotdog carts.

Detroit alumnus Andrew Neal visited Dog Central recently to see if one of his friends was working. Neal said he used to eat at the res-taurant while attending CMU and loves the restaurant.

Graff Chevrolet and Buick worker Chris Oldham did not know it existed until the hotdog cart stopped by his workplace as a promotion for a CMU football game.

“I like the creativeness of the menu the most, and the quality of the hotdogs,” Oldham said.

The Vienna-style hot dogs are manufactured by the Little Town Jerky Company in Falmouth. They are made from custom hand-made beef and pork-wrapped lamb cas-ing and hardwood smoked for 10 hours before arriving in Mount Pleasant.

With 23 signature dogs, the expansive menu takes advantage of a wide variety of toppings and flavors.

Dog Central caters to late-night cravings, employs many student workers

Essexville senior Bianca Henika’s first time coming to Shin’s Korean Restaurant was last year. She noticed the difference in taste

compared to Chinese and Thai food, which she said is a mixture of bits and pieces of both.

“I wasn’t sure about Ko-

rean at first,” Henika said. “It has the right amount of kick to it and those who don’t like spicy food can have it.”

YPSILANTI- Central Michigan University’s football team went into Saturday’s game against Eastern Michigan University needing a win to become bowl eligible.

The Chippewas did that and more, defeating the Eagles 38-7. CMU was in control from the onset of the game on both offense and defense.

“The story of the day was our defense,” said Head Coach Dan Enos after the win. “Our defense played very well and bottled up an explosive offense today. The offense did a nice job of running the ball and staying balanced, it was a good team win.”

Primarily filling in for injured Thomas Rawls at running back, was the trio of junior Saylor Lavallii, sophomore Martez Walker and freshman Devon Spalding.

Lavallii totaled 105 yards on 24 rushes with two touchdowns against EMU. Walker had 24 yards on nine carries in the Chippewas’ victory.

“I think that our offensive line did a good job today moving some bodies around,” Lavallii said. “I had a feeling it was going to be a good day for us. We realized at halftime that it won’t just be one or two guys contributing.”

With 18 touches against the Eagles, Spalding managed to rush for 154 yards with two touchdowns of his own.

Spalding’s biggest play was a 42-yard touchdown run in the second

quarter on his first carry to put CMU up by three touchdowns.

“I’ve been telling everybody that Devon (Spalding) is going to be really good,” Enos said. “We’ve been wait-ing for this kind of game from him.”

While a majority of CMU’s success came on the ground, sophomore

quarterback Cooper Rush was still able to pass the ball consistently against the sustained wind and EMU’s defense.

Rush completed 18 of his 23 passes for 223 yards and a touchdown.

A 15-yard touchdown pass to senior

wide receiver Titus Davis in the corner of the end zone late in the first half put the game out of EMU’s reach.

The Chippewas led 31-0 at halftime.

CMU’s defense held the Eagles to 97 yards on 48 plays.

The Eagles’ offense was on the

field for less than 20 minutes of game clock.

Now bowl eligible at 6-4 (4-2 in MAC) CMU looks forward to a bye week until play resumes with home games against Miami (Ohio) and rival Western Michigan University.

The Central Michigan University football team finds itself in the most favorable position it has been in all season after a dominating performance at Eastern Michigan Uni-versity last weekend.

The Chippewas now sit at 6-4 overall and clinched bowl eligibility with the trouncing of intrastate rival EMU.

With a much-needed bye week this week, the Chippewas will have 14 days to get healthy and as-sess the 2014 so far.

The good:The Chippewas have

gotten as much production out of senior wide receiver Titus Davis and sopho-more quarterback Cooper Rush as they could have ever hoped for.

Rush looks confi-dent. Davis appears to be healthy. That tandem should be CMU’s driving force through the rest of the season.

CMU’s defensive secondary has settled in nicely these past few weeks. With the excep-tion of CMU’s loss to Toledo, defensive back Tony Annese’s unit has been stifling and turned the airspace at Kelly/Shorts Stadium into a No Fly Zone.

When healthy and eligi-ble to play, senior running back Thomas Rawls is the best talent in the Mid-American Conference.

Rawls’ tenacious run-ning style and confident swagger has been the dif-ference in several Chippe-was victories this fall.

He did not play against EMU because of a leg inju-ry, and remains day-to-day heading into the bye week. CMU will need Rawls as close to 100 percent as he can be if they are going to win a bowl game in 2014.

The bad: A slow start has come

back to bite CMU in sev-

eral games this season. The Chippewas will

need to begin their remaining two regular season games more ef-ficiently if they want to make a serious case to

the selection committee this winter.

Special teams has been lacking for CMU this year. Outside of punter Ron Coluzzi and freshman kicker Brain Eavey’s solid performance so far, the rest of the special unit has struggled.

The Chippewas have gotten very little pro-duction out of their kick returning unit, forcing Rush and the offense to string together long drives in order to put the ball in the end zone.

Off the field issues have been a constant theme this fall. With four play-ers suspended for non-football related concerns, the Chippewas are having trouble shaking the dark cloud of distraction.

The team will have to forget about those disrup-tions as it finishes the season. But as the number of suspensions grows, that can’t be getting any easier.

Football’s story so far

It has been more than a decade since Central Michigan University’s field hockey team left the field smiling after winning a Mid-American Conference championship.

Saturday’s 2-1 regular season championship vic-tory over Kent State proved to be worth the wait.

“Euphoric” was the word goalkeeper Sadie Reynolds used to describe her feel-ings following CMU’s first MAC Championship since 2002.

“Those last four to five seconds seemed like two minutes,” coach Cristy Freese said. “I’m just ex-cited for these kids. These kids have worked hard. We went through a rough Sep-tember and they stuck with

it and kept working hard.”CMU’s conference title

did not come easy. Kent State controlled

possession throughout most of the second half. A corner shot by the Golden Flashes was shuttered by the CMU defense in the closing mo-ments – a game-saving play.

With nine seconds left in the first half, Caleigh Immelman received a pass from junior Kaysie Gregory off a penalty corner and put a shot past the KSU goal keeper. It was Immelman’s eighth goal of the season, and Gregory’s seventh as-sist.

When the clock hit zero, the Central Michigan bench exploded with joyous celebration, as the women exchanged hugs.

Students and fans ran on to the field to congratulate the team.

“Winning a MAC title

was our goal all along,” Gregory said. “Just having that title is pretty impor-tant to us. This is pretty unreal.”

The Chippewas lost the 2012 MAC Championship to Kent State in overtime. This year, Freese said her team’s triumph was inevitable.

“Our seniors couldn’t be denied this time,” Freese said. “They really showed a lot of guts.”

Caleigh Immelman’s game-winning goal late in the first half was the high-light of her time in Mount Pleasant.

“Walking off this field everyone is going to know our names,” Immelman said. “We’re proud to be Central Michigan.”

CMU enters the MAC tournament as the No.1 seed. The tournament starts on Nov. 7 and is held in Kent, Ohio.

Central Michigan Univer-sity’s volleyball team experi-enced deja vu again, falling to Kent State University in five sets Saturday.

The women are cur-rently on a three game losing streak, stand at 9-15 overall and 4-8 in the Mid-American Conference.

After an unlikely rally for the second consecutive match, the Chippewas staved off elimination in sets three and four.

The women were 15 points away from a comeback win in the fifth and final set.

Tied at 13, a serving ace by the Golden Flashes’ Kaylee Koller and an attacking error by CMU senior Kaitlyn Mc-Intyre closed the door on the Chippewas comeback hopes.

On Thursday, CMU erased a 2-0 lead only to fall in the fifth set 15-13 to Eastern Michigan University. The Chippewas did the same thing Saturday against Kent State and lost by the same score.

“It’s tough to swallow,” said CMU coach Erik Olson. “We didn’t win the right points. It’s pretty rare to win a match when you’re down 0-2. We actually had the opportunity to win both matches in that scenario.”

With the offense strug-gling, Olson went to his bench and inserted senior setter Danielle Thompson, who finished the match with 23 assists, and pro-vided a spark for the squad after the break.

“(Thompson) did a fan-tastic job of running the offense,” Olson said. “We were very one-dimensional in sets one and two. We were setting to the left side only, and Danielle ran the whole offense and did a great job.”

Facing the sweep, the Chippewas closed out the third set on a 14-8 run to capture the set 25-19. The women used that momen-tum to pull out the fourth set on a 10-4 run.

“We certainly made up for some deficits,” Olson said. “That’s a big deal to get back and fight and get into the fifth game.”

The women’s inability to win the first set after leading 23-22, allowed KSU to steal the victory. The Golden Flashes ended the set on a 3-0 run.

The Chippewas finished the first set with a side out percentage of 50, which Olson said was the main reason for the team’s late collapse.

“It’s just a matter of side out efficiency in those

Volleyball drops heartbreaker to Kent State in five sets

Greg WickliffeStaff Reporter

It looks like Central Michigan University’s vol-leyball team might not be who we thought they were going to be.

Another opportunity to get their season back on track, and the Chippewas yet again failed to seize the moment. The question now is, what’s next?

The women fell in a heart-breaker to Eastern Michigan University on Thursday, and then let a chance to save their conference record slip away on Saturday losing to Kent State University in a similar fashion.

If there was any bright spot in the women’s per-formance this weekend, it would be that they didn’t fold willingly.

The Chippewas could easily have given up and laid down, but instead, they pushed both opponents to their brink.

If anything, the team knows they can compete when trailing. Being able to rally is a key component for a championship team, but having to rally every match can be draining over a long period of time.

With four games remain-ing in the Mid-American Conference regular season, CMU finds itself at the bot-tom of the barrel.

The women essentially need to win out to make the conference tournament.

What makes that worse? Of the final four opponents the Chippewas face, three of them have defeated the women earlier in the year.

We all know anyone can win on any given night, but I don’t like CMU’s chances.

It’s really unfortunate when you look at the team CMU coach Erik Olson has assembled. The amount of young talent mixed with veteran leadership should have this team in MAC Championship contention, but they find themselves on the outside looking in.

This team has been on such a rollercoaster in 2014, and unfortunately have ended on the wrong side of a run more times than not.

I don’t want to say that I’m jumping off of the band-wagon, but I’m a little closer to the exit than I was about a week ago.

Women’s chances are fading fast

situations,” he said. “I don’t think we are putting ourselves in great situa-tions in tight moments. The better we can put ourselves in better situations in tight situations, the greater the opportunity we will have to win those points.”

McIntyre finished the match with a team-high 15 kills and tallied 11 digs. Jordan Bueter and Angie White each added 12 kills.

“We fought for every single point the entire match,” CMU junior Angie White said. “It ultimately comes down to winning the right point.”

White said the team will continue to move forward and their confidence has not wavered after the pair of close defeats.

“It’s not a negative and it’s not a positive,” she said. “We just keep going after it and keep our heads up. Tomorrow we have another day. It’s not the absolute end of the world.”

CMU hosts Ball State and Toledo next weekend.

By Ian Callison Staff Reporter

This year’s Central Michi-gan University runners are some of the best in pro-gram history, but in a field of tough competition, the Chippewas were unable to win a Mid-American Con-ference championship.

CMU hosted the MAC title meet for the first time since 2007 on Saturday with the men finishing in third place and the women com-ing in sixth.

“The MAC is not a slouch conference,” said head coach Matt Kaczor. “We all did really well, but you’ve just got a really good conference right now.”

Junior Nate Ghena and senior Abbey Kelto were first-team all-conference for CMU. Junior Silas Dekalita made second-team all-conference.

Kelto’s finishing time of 20:43 earned her seventh place overall, and also broke the CMU school record for a 6k, previously held by Raeanne Lohner.

“I wasn’t even going for the

record,” Kelto said. “But I’m pretty excited about it.”

Eastern Michigan Univer-sity proved untouchable on the men’s side, finishing with four men in the top seven. EMU’s team score, 23 points, was the best team score in MAC cham-pionship history.

Ghena led the CMU men, finishing sixth overall with 24:27.

“I’m not disappointed with how I did, but I never like see-ing three EMU guys in front of me,” Ghena said.

Dekalita, meanwhile, came

in 13th with a time of 24:53.“I’m definitely happy with

it,” Dekalita said. “This meet was our most important meet this season.”

Senior Ben Wynsma, sophomore Spencer Nousain and junior Montes Scott finished in 22nd, 24th and 34th, respectively.

On the women’s side, junior Breanne Lesnar finished 21st, while sophomore Michaela Bundy, freshman Hannah Davis and sophomore Katie Weiler followed in 40th, 41st and 46th, respectively.
