CAMPUSBRIEFNew student government to meet for first time

Monday night will be the first meeting of the next Undergraduate Student Government administration.

USG President Alex Solis and Vice President David Neely decided to have the first meeting of the new senate to establish future meeting dates.

“This is something that’s very common for USG,” Solis said.

During the meeting the new USG speaker, Melissa Dzienny, will propose meeting dates for the summer and next year and the senate will vote on them.

The meeting will also include the swearing in of new senators that weren’t able to make the swearing-in ceremony this past week, Solis said.

He said there are about five to six new senators to swear in.

All the members of Solis and Neely’s administration have not yet been decided, Solis said.

Solis and Neely are currently accepting applications for members of their cabinet, which are due Friday. They will interview appli-cants next week and make a decision during exam week.

“We’ve had a good number of applications come in already,” Solis said.

There will also be a USG meeting April 23, which will be the last meeting of the semester, he said.

During the meeting the organization will bring in University Chief Financial Officer Sherideen Stoll to give a budget update.

Solis said he is excited to get started in his new role as USG president.

“It’s still very surreal,” he said. “But it’s start-ing to set in. I’m pumped for summer, I think it’s going to be a really productive summer.”

The Visual Communication Technology program hosted its first open house since 1990 dur-ing the weekend at the College of Technology. Alumni, VCT employers, different companies and the general public attended the event.

The open house involved show-casing students’ packaging work. The event also celebrated the opening of the new packaging and display lab located at 104 Park Avenue, just behind the College of Technology.

Senior Justin Hamaker attend-ed the open house and said the event was really helpful for people to come to.

“The big thing for me was that they were going to have other employers here,” Hamaker said. “That’s cool because people are looking for jobs and that’s why I am here.”

The event served as an outlet for employers to get a glimpse of what the students involved with VCT are capable of and as a way for students to look into potential jobs.

University President Mary Ellen Mazey attended the VCT open house and officially opened the packaging and display lab as she cut the ribbon blocking the door to the lab with other employers.

“It’s always great to cut a rib-bon because it means that we have new development and new technology, and the University is

changing to meet the needs of the future,” Mazey said.

Donna Trautman, associate professor and program leader of VCT, said the packaging and display lab has been open since the beginning of the semester for students and classes to use and everything is up to speed.

“At this point we’re on the road

and all of the classes are using it, so we had an official opening and we wanted to recognize some of the people that donated the equipment and materials for it with a ceremony with the presi-dent,” Trautman said.

Some of the donations and equipment given to VCT includ-ed more than $5 million worth

of ArdioCAD Software in addi-tion to packaging and display production software from Esko Artwork. A View Tech UV Press was also donated and can print up to 80 inches wide and as long as the students need, said Laney Fugett, lecturer at the College of Technology.

“The VCT packaging and dis-play lab allows our students to learn about the packaging indus-try and create prototypes and learn about the corrugated indus-try and to find career paths in those industries as well,” Fugett said. “The packaging and display production software lets our stu-dents get experience with that

FALCON SCREECHT H E B G N E W S P R E S E N T S

“MAN,BAKES MYPOTATO

“ THAT REALLY

WHAT IS FALCON SCREECH? FALCON SCREECH IS A SPECIAL ADDITION TO

MONDAY’S FORUM SECTION. SUBMIT YOUR 100-WORD RANT ANONYMOUSLY AT BGNEWS.COM.

This past week’s political dis-cussion was marred by two comments: one truthful and one a hateful, false fabrication.

The truthful one was met with disdain, faux outrage and a media backlash. The other comment barely made a ripple in comparison.

These two “stories” illus-trate what is wrong in America today and shed light on one of the big lies in American poli-tics: the liberal media.

The big story was the state-ment by Democratic pundit Hilary Rosen that Ann Romney has never worked a day in her life.

The Right Wing went crazy over this. How dare a Democrat accuse a housewife of never working a day in her life?

After all, Ann Romney could have worked, but she chose not to. This was a manufac-tured controversy if there ever was one. The fact is, Ann Romney does not know what it is to work — she and her hus-band are worth $250 million. Her biggest choice was what country club to join.

This “controversy” was not really about Ann Romney though. This is about the GOP’s war on women.

People are under the assumption that the GOP war on women is only about abor-tion. It is also about more subtle things like the “choice” of work for women. The Republicans like to pretend that all women get to choose whether or not to work, just like Ann Romney.

As a product of the working class and a thinking person, I know the vast majority of women do not have the choice of work or no work: they have to work.

By making working women feel guilty about working, the Republicans keep women sub-jugated.

Make no mistake — the Republican Party still wants women barefoot, pregnant and mute.

Look at its female candi-dates; they are Stepford Wives in power suits. They convey the message that a good wife is subservient to her husband.

They can “choose” to work, however they cannot possi-bly be the breadwinner. What utter, malicious nonsense. No wonder the GOP has a “woman problem.”

Far more dangerous and libelous was Congressman

Allen West’s comment that 80 House members are “commu-nists.”

While being a complete lie and patently ridiculous, this is dangerous talk. “Communist” is one of the swear words of American politics.

Clue to the Republicans: not being so fascist that Mussolini would blush does not make one a communist. Unfortunately, being liberal is now a crime for many of the Right Wings in this country.

The fact that Allen West can spout this slanderous rubbish is even more proof of this.

This is similar to the War on Women. Just as being a woman is wrong for the Right Wing, so is being a Democrat.

This brings me to the “liberal media.” There is no bigger lie in American politics.

This lie has been peddled by the Right Wing for years. They work under the belief that if you lie long enough, people will believe it. This lie has worked; the vast majority of America believes the media is liberal.

While the majority of report-ers and columnists are more liberal, this is not news.

Study after study has shown that the more education a per-son attains, the more liberal they become.

The vast majority of the

media are educated people. Never publicized is that the vast majority of mainstream media is part of a humongous Right Wing oligarchy.

All of the television news organizations are owned by massive conglomerates.

Big business is historically conservative in its politics. AM radio, which is almost 100 percent Right Wing, is owned almost completely by two or three conglomerates that ben-efit from considerable GOP tax cuts for businesses.

These companies are the real media and they are all con-servative.

That is why the Hilary Rosen “controversy” gets traction and the outrageous West story is barely reported.

The Right Wing wants to dis-tract us with these phony con-troversies. It goes back to the Roman philosophy of “bread and circuses.”

Recognizing this is the first step in being an informed citi-zen. We have a choice in our nation: be smart or be manip-ulated.

Do not let the GOP smoke-screens work this election sea-son.

This past weekend marked the centennial observance of the Titanic sinking.

The popular view attributes the lifeboat shortage as the big-gest single factor in the tragic loss of life. The Titanic carried 2,224 people on its voyage, yet the lifeboat capacity was only 1,178.

Yet, the Titanic was in full compliance with, and even exceeded, the British Board of Trade regulations that were in effect.

The regulations required 16 lifeboats for any ship that surpassed 10,000 metric tons. The Titanic tipped the scales at 46,328 tons, and carried four extra lifeboats.

The problem lay in the per-ception of a lifeboat’s purpose. A century ago, the well-under-stood purpose of lifeboats was to carry passengers from a sinking ship to a nearby res-cue ship. Under this scenario, a lifeboat could be used mul-tiple times to ferry passengers between ships.

Past events reinforced this paradigm. Two years earlier,

the S.S. Republic collided with the S.S. Florida off Nantucket, Mass., in thick fog.

All but four of the Republic’s 461 passengers were trans-ferred to the Florida in the Republic’s 11 lifeboats. Each boat made more than 20 trips between the two vessels.

No one envisioned life-boats being used for any purpose other than com-muting between larger ships. The Titanic’s sinking forever changed the view of a lifeboat’s purpose.

There’s always a dan-ger when a tool or concept, intended for one purpose, is forced to perform another. When the only thing available is a hammer, everything else tends to become a nail.

For example, “Earnings Per Share” is a technique used to evaluate corporate financial performance. But if investors use this metric as the exclusive measure of corporate perfor-mance, areas such as solvency, debt and cash flow are ignored.

Examples of misapplication also exist in areas regarding the First Amendment. Some new employees, fresh out of college, may be shocked to discover their employer’s proscription of political buttons or posters on clothing or workplace cubi-

cles. They wonder about their “freedom of expression.”

However, the First Amendment applies to the relationship between gov-ernment and citizens. It does not necessarily encompass employers and employees. That wasn’t its intended pur-pose.

We hear the word “fairness” applied in situations where it was never meant to be.

An example is tax policy. Taxation was never primar-ily designed to be necessarily “fair.”

“Fairness” is a word that isn’t susceptible to objective measurement. A dozen peo-ple, asked to resolve an issue “fairly,” may produce four solutions, some diametrically opposed.

Another example: one of the principal concepts of insur-ance is the pooling of the cost of infrequent and expensive events. For this reason oil changes, aspirin tablets and grass cutting are not covered by auto, medical and home-owners’ insurance policies.

When this fundamental insurance principle is ignored and coverage is expanded pre-mium costs can rise exponen-tially.

Our federal government

was never designed to feed the hungry and clothe the naked. The best we can hope for from government is to pro-tect life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Note that the right protected is the “pursuit” of happiness, not happiness itself. To change the purpose of government to insure “hap-piness,” rather than its pursuit, is to invite the creation of the “nanny state” and an enfee-bled citizenry.

Whether it is lifeboats, the First Amendment, insurance, government, “fairness,” or practically anything else, we should examine the original intended purpose of an item or concept and determine if we are bending and deforming it to suit new objectives.

If so, we run the risk of dis-torting both the original con-cept as well as dooming any hope of solving our problems.

The Titanic could have car-ried more lifeboats, but only if the purpose of a lifeboat had been changed.

Change is inevitable, but make sure that the tools used to deal with its challenges are appropriate and adequate.

Dear Lazy Wardrobe, first of all, contrary to popular belief, girls are not dressing to impress you. We are going to wear what we feel comfort-able in, and it’s way too cold right now for a sundress. Second of all, “recent spike”? Uh, no, pretty sure most girls have been wearing these for quite a while. And third of all, in regards to your comment about us not practicing yoga in these, I’m sorry, do you only wear tennis shoes when you’re going to play tennis? I didn’t think so.— GIRL IN YOGA PANTS

I hate it when I go out of my way to host a party and my house gets absolutely demolished. Why do people think it’s kosher to leave beer cans behind my flat-screen TV? Speaking of beer cans, I’m providing you with beer, so at least have the courtesy to finish it. Don’t leave full cans around my house.— HOST LOSES THE MOST

If you’re sober, don’t bother getting fast food on a weekend night. The workers will treat you like complete garbage either way. I know there’s a lot of drunken fools roaming the streets, but you should be nice, no, not a total bitch to me when I’m ordering. I’m not trying to inconvenience you.— I’M SOBER AND I KNOW IT

We need some variety in downtown Bowling Green. I made my way there this weekend, and out of every bar came the same 808 drum beats. It all sounds the same. Maybe I have to be completely trashed to understand the music of today. To whoever DJs downtown, you can keep your faux rave music. I’m going to Howard’s Club H for something real.— CULTURE KID

I’m so tired of people who passive-aggressively social-network their problems. Stick up for yourself and stop hiding behind your computer screen and your Facebook wall. Attack the problem at the source and maybe, just maybe, something will get resolved. Until then, I’m unfol-lowing you.— TIRED OF YOUR TWEETS

Oh, hey ex-girlfriend! What’s up? It’s funny that you text me right after your boyfriend ditches you. Oh, you’re drinking a lot tonight? How cute. That will show him. Shouldn’t you have forgotten my phone number months ago? Just make your mistakes and leave me alone.— IT’S A TRAP

Have you ever been to the Union on a Sunday night? Yeah, I wouldn’t suggest it. They give away your food after you waited for 10 minutes. But then again the people working were incredibly goofy and made the wait worth it. So actually go there on Sunday nights. —IMPATIENT PATRON

As of now, it isunclear who and what willbe Egypt’s new government.It is widely assumed,however, that it may be the Muslim Brotherhood. Farfrom being a religious organization, as its namewould imply, it is dominated by fanatical radicals,ardent antagonists of the West, obsessed anti-Semites, and sworn enemies of the State of Israel. Ifthe Muslim Brotherhood would indeed come topower, a bloody war, more violent than anything thathas come before, is likely to ensue.

Saudi Arabia, a tyrannical kingdom, is anotherimportant “ally” of the U.S. It is the most importantsource of petroleum, the lifeblood of the industrialworld. It is, however, totally unreliable and hostile toall the values for which the United States stands. Theprecedent of Iran cannot fail to be on the minds ofour government. The Shah of Iran was a staunch allyof the U.S. We lavished billions of dollars and hugequantities of our most advanced weapons on him.But, virtually from one day to the next, the mullahsand the ayatollahs – fanatical enemies of our country,of Israel, and of anything Western – came to power.Instead of friends and allies, Iran’s theocraticgovernment became the most virulent enemy of theUnited States. Could something like that happen inSaudi Arabia? It is not at all unlikely!

Other U.S. allies in the region – Jordan, the “new”Iraq, and the Gulf emirates – are even weaker and lessreliable reeds to lean on. Libya, which once, underKing Idris, hosted the Wheeler Air Base, became anenemy of the U.S. under the late, loathsome Khaddafi

– and probably still is. Turkey, once a strong ally, hascast its lot with Iran.

A stalwart partner. Israel, in contrast, presents atotally different picture. Israel’s reliability, capability,credibility and stability, are enormous andirreplaceable assets for our country. Many prominentmilitary people and elected representatives haverecognized this. Gen. John Keegan, a former chief of

U.S. Air Force Intelligence,determined that Israel’scontribution to U.S.intelligence was “equal tofive CIA’s.” Senator DanielInouye, Chairman of theSenate AppropriationsCommittee, said that “The

intelligence received from Israel exceeds theintelligence received from all NATO countriescombined. The huge quantities of Soviet militaryhardware that were transferred by Israel to the USAtilted the global balance of power in favor of ourcountry.”

In 1981, Israel bombed Iraq’s nuclear reactor. Whileat first condemned by virtually the whole world – sadto say, including the United States – it saved ourcountry a nuclear confrontation with Iraq. At thepresent time, US soldiers in Iraq and in Afghanistanbenefit from Israel’s experience in combatingImprovised Explosive Devices, car bombs and suicidebombers. Israel is the most advanced battle-testedlaboratory for U.S. military systems. The F-16 jetfighter, for instance, includes over 600 Israeli-designed modifications, which saved billions of dollarsand years of research and development.

But there is more: Israel effectively secures NATO'ssoutheastern flank. Its superb harbors, its outstandingmilitary installations, the air- and sea-lift capabilities,and the trained manpower to maintain sophisticatedequipment are readily at hand in Israel.

Israel does receive substantial benefits from theUnited States – a yearly contribution of $3 billion – allof it in military assistance, no economic assistance atall. The majority of this contribution must be spent inthe US, generating thousands of jobs in our defenseindustries.

Israel is indeed America's unsinkable aircraft carrier. If it were not for Israel, thousands of American troopswould have to be stationed in the Middle East, at a cost of billions of dollars a year. In contrast to the unreliablefriendship of Muslim countries, the friendship and support of Israel are unshakable because they are based onshared values, love of peace and democracy. What a comfort for our country to have stalwart and completelyreliable Israel in its corner, especially at a time when in this strategic area turmoil, upheaval and revolution arethe order of the day. Yes, Israel is indeed America’s most steadfast friend, a most important strategic asset andmost reliable ally.

WINGS From Page 1

PRESIDENT MAZEY leads a ribbon cutting ceremony in front of the Packaging and Display Lab, located behind the Technology Building. The ribbon cutting symbolized the beginning of the Visual Communication Technology open house, which took place Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

And, like the 120 or so people lined up behind them, it was all for a seem-ingly endless supply of chicken wings. All it took to get those wings was a few friendly games of corn hole and spending a night or two in a restaurant parking lot. After an eight month hia-tus, the new Bowling Green Buffalo Wild Wings re-opened Monday in its new location. The restaurant opened at 8 a.m. and wel-comed the first 100 people through the door with “Free wings for a year.”

The new site, which seats approximately 400 people, is the only freestanding Buffalo Wild Wings franchise in Northwest Ohio; and, according to franchise owner John Hoschak, it also fea-tures the largest audio-visual package in the area with two 14 ft. television screens and 70 other displays.

Also new to the franchise is a private party room that seats more than 40 people, complete with an audio-visual package of its own with nearly eight to 10 dis-plays, Hoschak said.

Kimmel said he and his friends made the decision to camp outside the popu-lar restaurant because they all love Buffalo Wild Wings and the 14 signature sauces unique to the franchise.

“They have sauces no other place has,” Kimmel said. “I’m a big fan of their Teriyaki. They do Teriyaki like no one else does.”

Kendra Hays, marketing director for the franchise,

said the new location is not just featuring restaurant favorites; it has 30 differ-ent varieties of beer on tap, more than any of the fran-chise’s other six locations.

After hearing about the wider variety of brews offered by the new location, Kimmel said the award-winning wings were not the only thing keeping him and his friends in line overnight.

“We’ve got a plan to try all 30 beers that they have on tap,” Kimmel said. “I have them all written out on a piece of paper and we’re sign-ing up by what ones we want so between the seven of us, we’re going to try them all.”

Kimmel, his friends and the rest of the line will have a chance to try those beers earlier than normal. For the first day of business back in Bowling Green, Hays said all alcoholic beverages will be available when the res-taurant opens at 8 a.m.

“Being that it’s a college town, we figured we’d give it a shot,” Hays said. “For pre-vious openings, we’ve even opened earlier than that.”

For those not fortunate enough to be the 100 in line for a year’s supply of free wings, Hays said other prizes have been given away and will continue to be throughout the week.

“We’ve been giving out swag like T-shirts, key chains … all of that stuff,” she said.

Kailey Carter, University sophomore and new Buffalo Wild Wings server said she has never experienced working a major restaurant opening before, but is very excited about the number of prospective customers

throughout opening day.“It’s going to be crazy. I

mean, look at how many people we had waiting out-side,” Carter said before the opening. “I’m excited to see how many people are going to be here. Plus, I want to see if we break the national record for most wings sold in a day.”

Sunday evening, the fran-chise hosted a VIP Party at the new location, serving free food to a select group of area patrons. Hays said the franchise sent out VIP pass-es to 200 people with each pass allowing the selected guest to bring someone with them, filling the res-taurant with 400 people.

Aside from the free food the restaurant was cooking at the party, Hays said a por-tion of all other proceeds is going to go to a charity for Angelica Mormile, one of the two survivors of the March 2 crash on Interstate 75.

The old location, original-ly housed on West Wooster Street, closed for relocation on Wednesday, August 31; and, according to a past article in The BG News, the restaurant franchise had been in that building since 1994 prior to the move.

The expansion and relo-cation means much more than just changing from one building to another. Hays said being across the street from the Stroh Center will hopefully not only bring in students, but also more families to create an atmosphere that everyone can enjoy.

“We want college stu-dents, families, everyone … we want it all,” she said. “Something for everyone.”

Offensive explosionFalcons, Flashes combine for 51 runs on Sunday; BG wins two of three games

By Nick Marlow and Nick JuskewyczThe BG News

The BG baseball team took two of three games from Kent State this weekend, handing the Flashes their first two conference losses of the sea-son.

GAME ONEIn the bottom of the 14th inning,

with the bases loaded Friday at Stellar Field, BG third baseman Drew Kuns braced himself as a fastball from Kent State pitcher Ryan Mace plunked him on the left wrist.

Second baseman Brian Bien

came in to score and BG handed the Flashes their first loss in the Mid-American Conference, 6-5, in the first of a three-game series.

The Falcons prevailed in spite of a career day from Kent first baseman George Roberts. Roberts was 3-for-5 with a pair of solo home runs off BG starter Matt Malewitz. Alex Miklos, Kent’s left fielder, also homered.

“It’s a big win for us,” said coach Danny Schmitz. “It was a very good college baseball game and I’m really proud of our guys for the way they battled back late in the game.”

Malewitz went 5 2/3 innings and gave up four runs (all earned) on eight

hits, before Ben Singer, Nick Bruns and Patrick Martin surrendered just one run on four hits in 8 1/3 innings of relief. Martin was credited with the win.

Starter David Starn pitched seven innings of near-flawless baseball for the Flashes, allowing just one run (unearned) while striking out nine, only to collect the no decision when Casey Wilson gave up three runs on three hits in the bottom of the eighth to tie the game at four.

After Kent retook the lead in the top of the ninth on an RBI single from shortstop Jimmy Rider, Falcons pinch-hitter Patrick Lancaster sent it

to extras with a clutch two-out base hit in the home-half, which brought catcher TJ Losby around to score.

“I was a little anxious, but when I got up (to the plate) the anxiousness went away,” Lancaster said. “It was a fastball right down the middle and I didn’t miss it.”

Five innings later, Bien, who sin-gled his way on, stood atop third base with only one out. Kent skipper Scott Stricklin, prescient of a squeeze, then opened Pandora’s Box by hav-ing Mace intentionally walk center

BG football hosts annual spring game

Orange team defeats white, 14-13

By Michele WysockiAssistant Sports Editor

The BG football team took a new approach to this year’s “Orange and White” spring football game.

Instead of a scoring system with points for sacks and catches, the Falcons went with regular game style scoring, and the orange team defeated the white team, 14-13.

Head coach Dave Clawson said part of the spring game is to create a game-like atmosphere.

“It helps a lot, I would say, with the young guys,” defensive tackle Chris Jones said.

Contrary to years before, the team constructed a draft to decide what team the players would be placed on — orange or white.

Quarterback Matt Schilz said the draft made the game more com-petitive.

The white team took an early 3-0 with a field goal from freshman Tyler Tate near the end of the first quarter.

The orange team answered shortly with a touchdown when Schilz found the hands of wide receiver Herve Coby to take a 7-6 halftime lead. Schilz was 19 of 36 for 185 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions.

Clawson is pleased with the amount of talent at the wide receiv-er position, but he said they are too inconsistent to win.

“I think the amount of athleti-cism we have at receiver and the depth is as good as we’ve ever been, but we don’t have the experience,” Clawson said.

Alex Carter took the ball and ran 66 yards for a breakaway touch-down for the white team — white

Falcons fall to Ball State, 121-36, in final meet before All-Ohio Championships

SAISHA GAILLARD, BG sprinter, competes during the Tom Wright Classic at the Perry Field House earlier this season.

By Alex KrempaskyReporter

The BG track and field team split up and took to the road this weekend to compete in two meets.

Most of the team went to the Ball State Duals in Muncie, Ind., and a select few went to the Jesse Owens Track Classic in Columbus.

BG won two events in Muncie but came up short in the overall score; BG fell to Ball State 121 to 36. Junior Allison Weimer took first place in the 400-meter dash with a time of 57.10 seconds; winning by 1.44 seconds.

The second BG victory came in the 4x400-meter relay race. Weimer was a part of the relay team along with sophomore Allorian Horne, junior Felicia Jefferson and freshman Natalie Sommerville. Their time of 3:58.89 was nearly 10 seconds ahead of the second place Ball State team, which had a time of 4:07.01.

Jefferson also took multiple top 10 places in the Ball State Duals with second place finishes in the 100 and 200-meter dash, and sixth in the 400-meter dash.

Head coach Lou Snelling was critical of the results of the Ball State Duals.

“This meet format really shows our lack of depth,” Snelling said. “Which is no surprise.”

BG student-athletes took a cou-ple top 10 finishes in Columbus as well. Sophomore Brooke Pleger took second place in the hammer throw event with a distance of 58.99 meters.

Senior Ashley Harris finished eleventh place in the shot put event with a throw of 13.56 meters. Junior Jeanette Pettigrew competed in the 100-meter dash and placed a respect-able fifth place with a time of 11.88.

Harris was the only student-ath-lete to officially represent BG at the Jesse Owens Track Classic because the other Falcons competed unat-tached due to being redshirted.

Snelling is optimistic about the future of the BG track and field team, especially going into next year.

“We do feel good about address-ing depth issues through a large and diverse recruiting class that num-bers nearly twenty girls at this point.” Snelling said.

He also knows that he will have key athletes back next year as well.

“It will also be nice to have our red-shirts back next year.” Snelling said. “These types of results are the price we pay in the short term.”

BG travels to Oxford, Ohio, this weekend to compete in the All-Ohio meet hosted by Miami University beginning April 20 and ending April 21.

FALL 2012!

Explosive first innings were the highlights of the Falcon softball team’s play this week-end as they went 3-1.

The Falcons hosted Eastern Michigan in a dou-bleheader on Friday, win-ning both games 6-1 and 7-1 respectively.

Strong hitting from Shelby Fink who had two RBI while Andrea Arney (1-for-3) and Erika Stratton (2-for-3) both recorded doubles. Hannah Fulk recorded a home run also, her sixth of the season.

BG game off rolling in the first inning, like they have all season, recording four runs off of just four hits. The first of these hits was Fulk’s homer which set the pace for the Falcons rout of Eastern Michigan.

An added single followed

by a fielding error allowed Arney to double up giving her an RBI and an early Eagles pitching change. Fink singled up the middle, which brought home two more runs.

The Falcons managed to add two more runs in the game, one in the bottom of the fourth and each team added one more giving a final score of 6-1.

The Falcons continued their momentum in game two as they again routed 7-1. Fulk added another home run with two RBI, freshman Chole Giordano recorded her first two RBI game and Fink added another RBI.

This time the Eagles scored first, recording one run in the first inning. The Falcons responded in the second with three runs off of three hits.

BG went on to score four more runs in the contest as

Eastern Michigan never real-ly got involved, highlighted by Hulks seventh home run of the season.

A hot start welcomed Central Michigan to town for two games one each on Saturday and Sunday.

The first game the Falcons dropped the Chippewas 3-2, and the second matched the score but saw the Falcons lose 3-2.

Katie Yoho led game one with a two-run homer and back and forth pitching between Jamie Kertes and Paris Imholz allowed the Falcons to prevail.

BG started out with a run in the first inning of off two hits. Rachel Proehl singled up but was able to move to third off of a fielding error. The team tried a double steal to bring Proehl home, but the attempted was snuffed out.

Central Michigan respond-

ed in the third with a solo home run to tie the game at 1-1, but Fulk matched with her own home run in the fourth bringing in two runs, rounding out the score to 3-1.

The Chippewas threatened in the fifth inning by scoring one run and had bases loaded on no outs. Imholz came in the game and recorded all three outs to secure the 3-2 win for the Falcons.

“That was a fantastic win for us,” said coach Shannon Salsburg. “The great thing is that it took the entire team.”

The Falcons were unable to repeat and lost a close game Sunday 3-2 , split-ting their weekend series with Eastern Michigan. The Falcons are now 25-16 with a 9-3 record in the Mid-American Conference, and will host Eastern Kentucky on Wednesday.

fielder Jake Thomas and third baseman Logan Walker to set up the Kuns hit by pitch.

GAME TWOIn a very rocky and adverse

baseball game, the BG Falcons baseball team found a way to defeat the Kent State Golden Flashes 9-6 at a wet Stellar Field on Saturday.

The heated contest fea-tured eight combined errors, three lead changes in the last three innings and BG assis-tant coach Spencer Schmitz getting ejected in the second inning for his displeasure on the strike zone.

“The big thing is that it was a win,” danny Schmitz said. “I can’t say it was the prettiest win that I have ever seen with both teams making some mistakes, but I am glad we came out on top.”

To add to the craziness, home plate umpire Grant Henderson collapsed dur-ing the bottom of the third inning. After BG’s Drew Kuns drew a walk, Henderson took his mask off and bent over for a few moments looking at the ground. The medical staff brought out a BG golf cart and helped him walk over but Henderson fell to the ground before he could get in. He laid there for approximately 20 minutes before he got up on his own power and was taken in the ambulance.

For the game to con-tinue, first base umpire Dennis Varwig moved to home plate and third base umpire Brad Zarkle had to handle all the bases. The umpires seemed to have done a great job consider-ing the situation, but con-troversy arose in the bot-tom of the seventh inning.

With the score tied up at three a piece and two runners on with two outs,

Kuns gave a check swing on a full-count which drew a walk. With runners on base, umpire Zarkle had to be positioned behind the pitch-er when the check-swing was applied. Neither Zarkle nor Varwig thought the bat crossed the plate but Kent State coach Scott Stricklin came out of the dugout and shouted with anger on his disagreement. Lancaster came up to bat next and drove in two runs on a single up the middle to give BG the 5-3 lead.

Kent State came back in the top of the eighth with three runs of its own, capped off by a two-run homer by leadoff hitter Evan Campbell to give the Golden Flashes the lead back at 6-5.

The Falcons responded right back with another three runs in dramatic fashion. With bases loaded and the dangerous Andrew Kubuski at the plate, he hit a dribbler halfway between the pitcher Michael Clark and catcher David Lyon. Clark fielded the ball, rushed his throw and fired it over Cody Koch at first base. All three Falcon base runners scored, which even-tually gave BG the 9-6 win.

“I think it was a very emo-tional game,” Schmitz said. “Kent State has a tremendous program and they have a lot of pride but we have a won-derful tradition too. So usu-ally when we get together, you see some high intensity baseball and that’s exactly what you saw today with emotions running high. But that’s fun baseball and that’s the way it should be played and so I’m very, very proud of our guys.”

GAME THREEThe BG baseball team

nearly set the record books at a windy Stellar Field Sunday afternoon in a 31-20 loss to the Kent State Golden Flashes.

The contest took four hours

and three minutes, including 51 combined runs, 45 com-bined hits and 10 combined errors.

Yet, BG was still able to take two out of three in the series.

“Well we took the series so that’s the positive note,” Schmitz said. “But I’m dis-appointed in the way we came out for day three today. Obviously our defense wasn’t ready to play, which was something we even talked about before today’s game with giving up four errors on Saturday.”

Kent State came out on a mission by dialing up 10 runs on the Falcons in the top of the first where they had 15 plate appearances. From that point on, both teams seemed to score at will in just about every inning. In the end, there were only five scoreless half innings between the squads.

Picking up his first win of the year for Kent State was Dan Kopcak despite only throwing two-thirds of an inning. Trevor Blaylock picked up his first loss of the year for BG who went on short rest because of the win he picked up at Michigan on Tuesday.

“I feel bad for Trevor Blaylock because we asked him to take the ball today on short rest,” Schmitz said. “He was willing to do it after throwing 93 pitches at Michigan and then we didn’t come out and make some plays for him at first.”

Kent State head coach Scott Strickland is in his eighth year with the Golden Flashes and still has never been swept in a MAC series.

BG begins a long road stretch at Wright State Tuesday evening with the opening pitch at 6:30 p.m. BG may be short handed at pitch-ing going into the game as it threw five different pitch-ers Sunday, including Tyler Wynn who traditionally plays infield for the Falcons.

BASEBALL From Page 6

was up 13-7 with just minutes left on the clock.

It wasn’t until late that orange made a game changing touchdown to take the lead, 14-13, to win the game.

Running back Jamel Martin took the ball into the end zone from 19 yards out to put orange up by one with 3:51 left on the clock. Martin had 86 yards on 20 carries, including the touch-down.

“We have a long way to go until we play Florida on Sept. 1 but we’ve had a very produc-tive spring,” Clawson said.

A unique thing about the spring game is that it is prac-tice 14 of 15 that the team is allowed to conduct. BG will meet one more time this spring to correct aspects of the spring game, Clawson said.

“In practice, everyone brought it every day this spring,” Schilz said.

The Falcons also announced that the team had chosen six captains this season. Among

this six, three offensive and three defensive players, are Jones and Schilz.

Jones was almost a unani-mous vote. Clawson said he had never seen as many votes as Jones received for captain.

“It’s a real honor that your teammates respect you that much and they look up to you to lead this team,” Jones said.

Jones has been a captain before, but this is Schilz’s first year. He said he is ready to take on the leadership role, and he is honored to be one of the six players chosen.

SPRING From Page 6

By Nate DoolinReporter

Friday had clear skies and marked a festive day in the recognition of lone senior Jessica Easdale on senior day, but the Falcons fell just shy of capturing the win from Western Michigan, 4-3.

The Falcons’ double pair-ings continued with their extraordinary performance and captured the early dou-bles point in the match. BG has won six of its past seven double points and Friday’s efforts marked the sixth time this spring season the Falcons have swept their opponent for the doubles point.

Emily Reuland defeated her opponent in two sets of work 6-3, 6-3. Reuland has been a

standout for the Falcons this year with 45 combined wins, which moves her into a tie for 10th place on the BG single-season list.

Reuland was recently named the Mid-American Conference Player of the Week, the league office announced Wednesday afternoon. Reuland, a soph-omore, earns the honor for the first time in her Falcon career. Additionally, Reuland has been named the MAC’s Female Scholar Athlete of the Week, also for the first time.

Nikki Chiricosta followed with a 6-1, 6-1 victory against her foe, now trailing Reuland with 41 total wins this sea-son along with her own MAC Player of the Week honors. Chiricosta currently holds 94

career wins at BG, ranking her 25th on the school list.

Trouble found the Falcons in flights two, four, five and six. Maddy Eccleston and Katie Grubb were near a vic-tory but were defeated by a 4-6, 4-6 score. Easdale also made things interesting by forcing a third set in flight six but fell 7-6 (7-5), 6-2.

The Falcons currently hold an 8-8 record, and are 3-3 in conference play.

The Falcons will end the regular season on the road, facing Eastern Michigan on Friday before meeting Toledo on Saturday after-noon. Both matches are at 1 p.m. BG will conclude the season in DeKalb, Ill., for the MAC Championships April 26-29.
