Obama addresses Ohioans Obama gives speech at Lorain County Community College on current economic crisis, future job outlook
Strickland concerned about economy, backs Obama
By Andy Ouriel Senior Reporter
ELYRIA, Ohio — President Barack Obama is more committed than ever to addressing the economic crisis plaguing the nation. “I’m trying to solve the problems that folks here in Ohio and across the country face every day and I’m not going to walk away just because it’s hard,” Obama said. Obama, who spoke during a town-hall meeting at Lorain County Community College on Friday, offered solutions to improve a decimated Ohio economy. Obama cited several ways for Ohio and the country to reignite the economy, including increasing exported goods while limiting imports from foreign countries, convincing banks to offer loans to small businesses, cutting unnecessary federal government staff and making higher education affordable. The University ended a two-year plus tuition freeze this semester. And while Obama didn’t talk specifically about college employment during his speech, the president said education will help younger generations secure jobs in the future. Obama said investing in local businesses and industries would also help curb the recession.

Falcons log service hours for centennial By Becky Tener Campus Editor
This year the University will celebrate 100 years 1 million times over. As part of the University Centennial Celebration, students, faculty, staff and alumni have been challenged to commemorate the University’s anniversary by completing 1 million hours of service this year. The Centennial Celebration committee co-chair Larry Weiss said 1 million hours of service is a way for everyone tied to the University to get

BG Men’s Hockey defeated Western Michigan 3-2 on Friday with the final winning goal scored by freshman Jordan Samuels-Thomas | Page 5
Curt Miller joined his team along the sideline of the court in Anderson Arena for the singing of BG’s alma mater. In his ninth season at the helm of the women’s basketball team, Miller has partaken in the tradition countless times before; however, Saturday was different. The coach had just earned his 100th career Mid-American Conference victory, with an 83-71 win over MAC West leader Eastern Michigan, and he did it on alumni day with many of his former players holding up signs that simply said “100 MAC Wins” for the final two minutes of play. Miller, in his ninth season with BG, came to the Falcons in 2001 with a goal of helping the program reach the MAC Championship by his fifth season. Miller surpassed even his own expectations, winning the first of five straight MAC titles in his fourth season, and even on his own milestone night the coach couldn’t take all the credit. “It’s a credit to players and my assistant coaches, who have helped bring these great players to the program,” Miller said. “It’s not just my 100th win. It’s my staff’s 100th win, because they’ve been here the whole time with me.” While Miller was humble after his win, his Eastern Michigan coaching counterpart AnnMarie Gilbert had the highest praise for the Falcon coach. “Curt has been one of the best in the business,” Gilbert said. “He’s just one of the best at adjusting during the game, and taking you out of what you’re trying to do. It’s always difficult playing here and he’s a very, very talented coach who I hope goes to the next level very soon.” Miller’s ability to adjust to an opponent’s game plan was on display in BG’s win as they took
Eastern Michigan out of their usual game plan, forcing them to switch their strategy around for the first time this season. BG never trailed in the game, as Lauren Prochaska hit a 3-pointer just four seconds into the game and a well balanced effort from the whole Falcon roster turned what was supposed to be closely contested game between the MAC’s top two teams. While Prochaska and Tracy Pontius lead the Falcons in scoring with 14 and 16 points respectively, the efforts of Jennifer Uhl and Kelly Zuercher off of the bench helped spark the outcome. Uhl posted a double-double, scoring 12 points and grabbing 11 rebounds while Zuercher had 10 points on a 5-for-8 shooting effort. “Sometimes Lo [Prochaska] and Tracy get double-teamed so much and have pressure to be the big scorers, that sometimes it opens it up for us,” Uhl said. “We need to have a balanced inside-outside, and sometimes I think when they’re covering us it opens them up for more.” For the second straight game the Falcons face off with one of the MAC’s leading scorers. Earlier in the week they held Miami’s Courtney Osborn to 8 points, against the Eagles they had to worry about containing Tavelyn James who was averaging 21.3 points per game entering the contest. While James did score a game high of 22 points, it did take her 17 shots to do so and many of those points came late when BG had already inserted most of their bench. “One of our team goals is no player scores over 20 points,” Uhl said. “She’s obviously a very fast player, she still got it done. She and Cassie [Schrock] both had great games, as long as we can contain them the best they can.” BG continues their three-game home stand on Jan. 27, when they host Western Michigan at 7 p.m. in Anderson Arena.
Since its grand opening in 2001, El Zarape has built a reputation worthy of some of the best Mexican cuisine and margaritas in Northwest Ohio. In June 2008, El Zarape relocated from where the restaurant Cinco De Mayo is now, to 1616 East Wooster St. in the Greenwood Center. The new building holds 229 customers with a patio weather permit-

presented Obama with a poem inspired by Martin Luther King Jr. that described Inauguration Day. Lowery is just one of millions unemployed in the state. In December, Ohio’s unemployment rate was 10.9 percent, up 0.3 percent in one month’s time, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Obama said he will solve the problems of displaced citizens by using the same American ideals that got him elected: hard work and dedication. “So long as I have some breath in me, so long as I have the privilege of serving as your president, I will not stop fighting for you,” he said. Although his policies of creating jobs are not the most popular in Washington, Obama said he is determined to bring jobs back to Ohio. “I won’t stop fighting for an economy where hard work is rewarded. I won’t stop fighting to make sure there’s accountability in our financial system. I’m not going to stop fighting until we have jobs for everybody,” he said.

entering the job market. And while the state budget has made cuts to other sectors, education has remained a No. 1 priority under Strickland’s watch. Up until the fall, Ohio was the only state in the country to not raise college tuition for a twoyear period. In October, the University Board of Trustees approved a tuition increase of 3.5 percent, ending a two and a half year tuition freeze. The state is also allocating $5.5 million to its public school systems from kindergarten through high school, Strickland said. “I believe the greatest hope for Ohio’s future is to educate our young people and to keep college affordable for our youth,” Strickland said. Strickland said he will continue to support Ohio students. “We’ve made great progress,” the governor said. “We’ll continue to make progress because we’ve reformed education, we’ve given our state a constitutional framework for school funding and even in the middle of a recession, we are not abandoning our commitment to education at every level.”
ties for the state during a townhall meeting Friday at Lorain County Community College. “The president is working his heart out, and I believe, to do what must be done to create jobs and opportunity for our people,” Strickland said in an exclusive interview with The BG News. The recession, which has depleted the American work force and crippled the nation’s economy, has left hundreds of thousands of Ohioans unemployed. Industries, such as steel and automobile, which were once considered a cash cow for Ohio, are now being outsourced overseas because of cheaper labor, Obama said. Ohio’s unemployment rate was 10.9 percent in December — the ninth highest among the 50 states, according to the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Obama said some manufacturing jobs will return, but it would be naïve to think all the jobs that disappeared will come back.
“The president did not create the recession. He inherited this recession,” Strickland said. “He has kept the economy from completely going over a cliff that could have damaged us for 10 years into the future.” Obama is already delivering on his promise to produce jobs in Ohio, the governor said. Ohio has or will receive more than $9 billion to promote its economy and provide jobs courtesy of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Overall, the state will be given money in several sectors, including health care, environment and education. Most recently, Ohio received $1.8 million from the legislation to create Connect Ohio, a company mapping and gathering broadband services throughout the state. Connect Ohio will create about 96,000 jobs, reported by the Times Bulletin, a news organization operating in Van Wert, Ohio. Obama and the federal government can only do so much, Strickland said. The governor said one way the state can fight through this difficult time is for the younger generation to earn a college education before

CAMPUS EL ZARAPE From Page 1 ting, which is slightly larger than the old location that held 180 customers. David Olivarez is El Zarape’s general manager and his family is also part owner of the restaurant. He said what sets El Zarape apart from other Mexican restaurants is their unique style of jalisco cooking. “We are definitely known for our margaritas, but we also focus on our original jalisco cuisine,” Olivarez said. “Jalisco is the region in Mexico my family is from; it’s around Central Mexico. Like any other country, you have variations of food in different routes, and jalisco is some of the most authentic Mexican styles around.” El Zarape’s margaritas by the pitcher are a student favorite and some of the best around. Senior Derik Meadows has consumed enough of them to validate that reputation. “The lemon lime margaritas are delicious,” Meadows said. “Sometimes restaurants use too much alcohol, but here they’re just too smooth. They go down pretty easy. But I just like to
MILLION From Page 1 ing with. “If students are working at their church or they are already putting in hours at the United Way, they can log those hours toward our 1 million,” he said. The Director of the Office of Service Learning Jane Rosser said students will be able to log their hours on a new Web site, that will be launched this week, so the Centennial committee can keep track of their progress toward the 1 million hour goal. She said the Web site will be a “one-stop-shop” for all the resources students, faculty, staff and alumni will need to find information about other service opportunities. She also said their will be links for service participants to share stories, photos and videos of the projects they’ve worked on. Rosser said that if everyone associated with the University puts in 50 hours of service this

come here, hang out, get a meal and meet up with friends.” El Zarape has been the recipient of several awards for their prompt service and satisfying dishes, the most impressive being the online survey sponsored by The Toledo Blade, CitySearch.com, which rated El Zarape second out of 60 nonfranchise owned restaurants in Bowling Green. With a packed parking lot and customers waiting out the door, El Zarape stays its busiest on the weekends and even draws in a large crowd on Sunday evenings. “We stay pretty steady every day of the week,” Olivarez said. “We try to bring in more people by having a lot of different discount cards. On Thursday, anyone who is some kind of student and has an I.D. can receive 10 percent off their meal. We also have happy hour Monday to Thursday from 5 to 8 p.m.” Freshman Meghan Chambers, a regular at El Zarape, said customers definitely get their money’s worth and receive a large portion of food for a reasonable price. “I love El Zarape’s chips and salsa,” Chambers said. “They
give you a lot of great food and it isn’t too expensive. We usually come on Thursdays and get the student discount. I’ve probably been here nine or 10 times since I’ve been living in Bowling Green and that’s only four months, so that says a lot about El Zarape’s reputation.” Some of El Zarape’s best dishes are open for debate, but Olivarez said the chimichangas, fajitas and the quesadillas are some of the favorites. While the food at El Zarape brings in enough customers by itself, the service staff shares a close bond to many of the community regulars. Ricky Davila is a busboy and has been employed at El Zarape since 2007. He said he enjoys working at El Zarape and getting to know the people in the Bowling Green area. “I know a lot of people in Bowling Green from talking to the customers and being friendly,” he said. “I love working here and meeting new people. The community has a different outlook and is much more cooperative with service issues. They know we are working people and their very considerate when it comes to tipping.”
year, then the 1 million hours goal will be reached. “People put in more hours than they think,” Rosser said. “But this also gives students the opportunity to put time into things they care about.” After the Centennial is over, the service hour site will be a place where students will be able log service hours for years to come. Rosser said the finishing touches to the Web site will be done soon and it should be up and running sometime this week. At the end of 2010, there will be President Volunteer Service Awards given out for service hours and the total number of hours will be revealed. “Sometimes our students only make the news when they’re in the blotter,” she said. “[1 million hour of service] sends a message about what BGSU is doing in the community. It says ‘This is the kind of University we are and this is what we care about.’” One of the organizations
whose service hours will be going toward the University’s 1 million is Dance Marathon (DM). The Director of DM Michelle Robinson said DM will be celebrating its 15th year in April and she is excited to add the time students and organizations serve this year toward the 1 million hours of service. “Think about the hours that will be put in,” Robinson said. “100 dancers times 36 hours, that’s 3,600 hours.” Weiss said he hopes other organizations will get on board with adding to the service hours ,like Greek philanthropies and other fundraiser or acts of service. “I really want students to get going on this,” Weiss said. “Without the students, the other groups [alumni, faculty and staff] will not be able to meet those 1 million hours,” he said. The University will announce the launch of the 1 million Hours of Service Web site soon, and until then, Weiss said he encourages students to start serving.

PAINTING: Junior La Toya Young paints a window in the Union yesterday evening. The communications major was using the window to get the word out about an event her sorority, Delta Sigma Theta Incorporated, is hosting. The event, Delta Week 2010, is a week made up of different events that can benefit students. Some events include learning how to properly use Photoshop and teaching students how to manage their money more efficiently. Delta Week takes place once every spring and fall semester. Young believes the window in the Union is a good way to get the word out about different events. The sorority also passes out fliers and uses Facebook to get others involved. For more information on this event, check out the window display in the Union.

Myths About Israel and the Middle East (1) Do the media feed us fiction instead of fact? We all know that, by dint of constant repetition, white can be made to appear black, good can get transformed into evil, and myth may take the place of reality.

MLB needs to come down hard Increase in GOP popularity due on athletes who take steroids to dissatisfaction with Democrats BRYAN WARRICK COLUMNIST Earlier this month, the sports world received a not-so-surprising bombshell from Mark McGwire. He admitted he had been taking steroids during the later half of his career, including the 1998 season when he hit a then record-breaking 70 home runs. Since he took part in the Congressional hearings on the matter of steroid use in 2005, it was not a huge surprise to most people. At the same time, McGwire coming out with his secret leaves baseball with a very difficult question to answer: What will be the legacy of this entire generation of ball players in the so-called Steroid Era? Some of the biggest names in baseball for the last decade and a half are now connected to steroid use. Besides McGwire, there’s Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Manny Ramirez, Alex Rodriguez and Sammy Sosa — a never-ending list of who’s who in baseball today.
Despite the different excuses these players come up with, from ignorance to recovery from injuries, the fact remains: they cheated and would never have achieved their amazing stats had they not taken these substances. Hopefully, one of the legacies that comes out of this dark chapter in sports history is the realization that unless people are truly punished for what they do, others will continue to do the crime. At this moment, A-Rod and Ramirez are still playing the game and putting up numbers that seem superhuman, the reason being, of course, they are cheating. If the legacy of baseball today is to be one of honesty, the League needs to actually step up and stop performance enhancement. If they are worried about ruining their players’ reputations and the records they have broken, then what were they thinking when they banned Pete Rose, the all-time career hit leader? He is not allowed into the Hall of Fame, despite the fact he never cheated to get his amazing numbers. Why is the League not acting like this now, when there are several players doing far worse things for the sport?
The reason is simple — money. Pete Rose was one of the greatest players to ever take the field, but he was not a huge national headliner. Today, in a time when baseball is trying to make the game more fun and attractive by adding offense, when several of the biggest hitters are linked to steroid use, they simply get a slap on the wrist and then are allowed back in the batters box. Selling out is not what the sport needs. There are countless other great players who are clean and hard working, exactly how all the baseball legends before this era did it. As for the cheating big stars who don’t deserve the fanfare, their time in the major leagues needs to come to an end soon. McGwire made the right choice by coming out and officially stating once and for all he was taking steroids, which directly led to increased numbers during his career. Now it is the League’s turn to decide how to deal with it and make choices that will affect not only superstars today, but the future as well. Respond to Bryan at thenews@bgnews.com
So-called ‘exceptionalism’ does not entitle anyone to dogmatism PATRICK SAUNDERS FACULTY COLUMNIST
In history and American culture studies, the phrase “American Exceptionalism” gets a lot of mileage in conversations. This is because it describes, in a cognitively dissonant way, a lot of facets of our society. It is in our collective history: groups that came to this land “looking for freedom” to practice a belief, escape from marginalization or secure land for themselves began to look at themselves as “exceptional.” The Pilgrims and Puritans came to America to practice their religion in “freedom,” discovered their “Exceptionalism,” and began to punish those who wanted the “freedom” to worship in their own way. This was just the first example of marginalization on the part of a group who found Exceptionalism after escaping marginalization in another place. Marginalization by those who feel exceptional is as American
as Apple Pie in the sum of our history. Even the more enlightened — or those who consider themselves enlightened — can be guilty of marginalization. In fact, the quickest phrase out of peoples’ mouths who feel exceptional is, “There ought to be a law.” Take smoking, for instance. In Ohio, voters passed a law banning smoking in public places. The law is a nightmare to enforce; many public places have returned to smoking. This returns the issue to a matter of personal choice, to patronize or not to patronize a smoking establishment. In line with that, we have also stuck our noses in the lives of those who want to be committed to each other for life but are not society’s vision of a “married couple.” Most of this comes from those who see themselves as anointed and exceptional. Seeking exceptionalism is an American trait and once it is found, those thus blessed immediately start to convince others to join them. It can be like religion in our country. We have many convinced they are exceptional, and that it is important others share
it. Nothing wrong with that, other than if you don’t share their particular view, you are hellbound for sure. Being hellbound is something I am familiar with, as many have told me over my life I am destined to go there because I have not signed up for their particular spiritual aerial cruise to Rapturedom. On the other hand, I am not worried about hell, because you have to believe in it and I don’t. If there is a hell, we are living in it, so whatever the next phase is, it has to be better than the present. I do believe in heaven though, or what I call “Harley Heaven,” where the weather is always great, my bike never runs out of gas or breaks down, there are no speed limits, the roads are long and straight with an occasional chicane of curves to keep it interesting and I don’t have to ever stop to take a leak. In Harley Heaven, everyone is welcome, even those who ride metrics or don’t ride at all, believe or don’t believe, vegan, vegetarian or like their steaks rare and bloody. After all none of us are exceptional, but should be at peace with our inner selves and not what we are or are not.

PHIL SCHURRER FACULTY COLUMNIST There’s been a lot of celebrating over the election of Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts, which saw a Republican fill the seat vacated by the late Senator Kennedy. Brown’s victory will undoubtedly have repercussions in the 2012 elections and beyond. But the last thing the GOP — at any level — should do is become too proud. Bear in mind the Massachusetts election was not so much an endorsement of the GOP as it was a rejection of the Democratic position on a number of issues. Rejection by the voters of your opponent’s position is not the same as their endorsement of yours. The fact is, voters are disenchanted with both parties. I won’t go into the problems I have with the Democrats — my space in the opinion page is limited. But I’ve also had problems with the GOP’s position on a number of issues for the past eight years: No Child Left Behind, unfunded Medicare Part D, the list goes on and on. To be honest, the GOP has been acting in many respects like the Democrats: tax and spend, bread and circuses, entitlements and pork purveyors. Columnist Peggy Noonan put it succinctly in a recent Wall Street Journal editorial. She compared the Democrats and Republicans to two rival teenaged gangs, which she labeled the Nuts and the Creeps, respectively. The Nuts advo-
“We all have a duty to help those in need. But we also have a duty to guard and protect our resources.” cated spending and statism; the Creeps did likewise, but tried to preach fiscal prudence. I may be showing my age, but it’s been a long time since any political party truly offered “a choice, not an echo,” as the Republicans did in 1964. Will there be anything in the GOP of the future that even vaguely resembles favoring a reduction in the national debt and a corresponding decrease in spending? I think so; I hope so. As for the future of a deeply flawed health care bill: let’s wait until our nation is back on its feet economically before we talk about anything so expensive. Some will call this turning our backs on the poor and sick. I disagree. We all have a duty to help those in need. But we also have a duty to guard and protect our resources. This is known as stewardship. It involves not only doing the “greatest good for the greatest number” or “getting the biggest bang for the buck.” At bottom, it’s concerned with insuring our aid and assistance goes to help and succor those who truly need it and in the best, most efficient fashion possible. Given the record the federal government has with the postal service, Amtrak, Fannie and Freddie and Medicare and Medicaid, I feel comfortable in stating who not to entrust this task to.
In preparing this column, I stumbled across the words Barry Goldwater spoke on Jan. 3, 1964, when he announced his candidacy for the presidency. I close by quoting an extract of this announcement, because he said it so much better than I ever could: “One of the great attributes of our American two party system has always been the reflected differences in principle. As a general rule one party has emphasized individual liberty and the other has favored the extension of government power… I’ve always stood for government that is limited and balanced and against the everincreasing concentrations of authority in Washington. I’ve always stood for individual responsibility and against regimentation. I believe we must now make a choice in this land and not continue drifting endlessly down and down for a time when all of us, our lives, our property, our hopes and even our prayers will become just cogs in a vast government machine.” I hope the Republican Party contemplates his words. They’re as relevant now as they were then. This article was written as an open letter to the Republican party. Respond to Phil at thenews@bgnews.com

With three seconds remaining in regulation during Friday night’s game against Western Michigan University, it looked like the same song, different night for the BG hockey team. For the second consecutive game, the Falcons blew a two goal lead in the third period, this time allowing
the tying goal with just three seconds remaining in an eventual shootout win. “It’s just something that we have to continue to learn from and get better as a group,” said interim head coach Dennis Williams. “I told them right before we went into overtime, ‘Hey, we still have five minutes here,’ which plays down to we need to get over it and move on.” The teams remained tied 4-4 after overtime, which ensured a shootout.

SPORTS BRIEF Barnes shines in East’s win in Shrine Game Freddie Barnes had just one catch in the first three quarters of the East/West Shrine Game Saturday, but his three catches in the final two minutes of the game helped seal the game for the East. Catching three straight passes from Mike Kafka, Barnes gained 29 yards during a 55-yard drive for the East that ended with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Andrew Quarless, giving the East a 13-10 lead with six seconds left in the game. Barnes was the second option on that play, according to the East’s offensive coordinator, who was interviewed by ESPN before the play. In total, Barnes had four grabs for 40 yards. During the ESPN2 broadcast, it was mentioned that Barnes was not invited to the NFL Combine, but the analysts said they thought Barnes would get drafted in the late rounds because of his ability to catch the ball. Barnes almost thrilled scouts by catching a touchdown, but strong defense from the West forced an incompletion.

Swimmers fall to Rockets in home finale attended the meet. “It probably was one of the biggest crowds we’ve ever had at that venue for a dual meet,� Howard said. “If we can keep that kind of fan base up, I have no doubt that the girls will be motivated.� Several Falcon swimmers recorded strong finishes Friday night, including Vicky Yu with a second-place finish in the 100-yard butterfly and thirdplace finish in the 200-yard butterfly. Amanda Rom posted two third-place finishes and Emily Bennet recorded a second-place finish in the 200-yard freestyle. Alexis Kain also recorded a second-place finish in the 100-yard breaststroke. Alexa Harris notched a fourthplace finish in the 100-yard backstroke and Katie Womack placed the same in the 100-yard breaststroke.
In all, Falcon swimmers finished in top-three spots in eleven events. Expect to see strong performances from Falcon swimmers as they compete at Buffalo next Saturday. Senior Meg Richardson feels that she and her teammates have a lot of confidence heading into the end of the season because of all the hard training they are doing right now. “That kind of training and knowing that we are training harder than any other team in the MAC right now is just going to give us even more confidence,� Richardson said. The Falcons will take on Buffalo next weekend and Akron on Feb. 5, which are the last two dual meets for the team before the MAC Championships in Oxford beginning Feb. 24.

248 S. Main
The Falcons swam hard, but left Cooper Pool with a 158-99 loss Friday night at the hands of Toledo in their last home meet of the season. Although the point total did not end in the Falcons’ favor, several positives can be taken away from the meet. In the final event of the night, Falcon swimmers posted 1:37:17, the team’s fastest dualmeet time of the year in the 200yard freestyle relay. Assistant swimming coach Mark Howard was pleased with his swimmers’ performance in that event. “That was not expected,� Howard said. “That was definitely a good way to end it.� Because of the strenuous training the Falcon swimmers have been doing in preparation for the MAC Championships
which begin on February 24, Howard was extremely happy with the way the swimmers battled through sore muscles to post their dual-meet best in that event. Senior captain Meg Richardson was the only Falcon swimmer to capture a first-place win that night as she recorded a time of 24:01 in the 50-yard freestyle event. Friday’s meet was the Falcons’ final home meet of the season, and it was also Richardson’s farewell to Cooper Pool. “It was pretty emotional for me,� Richardson said. “It was very bittersweet. I started thinking about how fast the four years have gone at BG and how I train every single day there with my teammates and it’s going to be the last time that I ever compete in that pool for BGSU.� Howard was impressed with the amount of supporters that

first collegiate goal ten minutes into the game to stake BG out to the early lead. That lead evaporated three minutes later when WMU scored an unassisted goal off a BG turnover. Each team scored a goal in the second, and the game remained tied until about five minutes to go in the game, when SamuelsThomas scored to make it 3-2. “It was our first sweep of the season, so that’s always good,” Samuels-Thomas said. “It’s going to help us build for the tough part of the schedule we have coming up here.” WMU goalie Riley Gill was the only reason this game was not a blowout, as he stopped 34 of 37 shots, while not receiving much help from his teammates. “Riley’s been an exceptional
force throughout his career, and that was no different tonight,” said WMU coach Jim Culhane. “He made some huge saves for us tonight.” BG was once again very successful on special teams, going 26 on the power play, and killing all six penalties they took. “We stress being aggressive as much as we can on the penalty kill,” Williams said. “I felt we did a real good job of communicating, we did a good job with our switches and staying with our man. “We made a lot smarter plays getting the puck deep instead of turning it over at the blue-line.” The team has a bye this weekend. They return to home ice Thursday, February 4, against Michigan at 7:05 p.m.

TRACK From Page 5 consecutive meet. Other event champions for BG included Rachael Doughty in the 60 meter hurdles and long jump, Felicia Jefferson in the 200 meter dash, Sabrina Forstein in the pole vault, and Tatijana Jacobson in the high jump. Coach Cami Wells said she’s happy with the win but the ultimate goal is to continue to improve and gear up for the end of the season. “We still have some areas to work on, but I was really pleased with our consistency across the board. Everybody fought hard and got done what we needed to do. “There were a lot of very strong performances tonight. We built on last week and still have building to do.” The Falcons will compete Saturday at the Tom Wright Classic at the Field House this Saturday, Jan. 30, with the first event slated to begin at 9:30 a.m.
