Construction for a commercial hotel on Central Michigan University’s campus will begin this fall.

The 18-month project is scheduled to start with a Nov. 1 groundbreaking , said CMU President George Ross at the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce’s Economic Outlook Luncheon.

The six story, 148 room hotel will feature a 250-person capacity conference room and is being paid for and built by Lodgco, a hospitality company which builds hotels.

He said the Courtyard Marriott hotel will be located east of Kelly/Shorts Stadium and the university will not provide funding.

CMU is leasing the land for the hotel to developer Lodgco for 30 years and will receive leasing revenue from the land for the duration of the lease.

Ross said hospitality students will be trained in the facility and hoped the hotel would provide an added on-campus venue for visitors to Mount Pleasant.

With a football in his hands and his hometown in his heart, Thomas Rawls is on a mission to make his last chance at achieving his childhood dream count.

The Flint-native and University of Michigan gradate transfer student has taken the spotlight through the Central Michigan University football team’s first two games.

In those games, Rawls ran for 276 ATTEMPTS 56 yards and three Rushing yards 276 touchdowns on 56 Receiving Yards 57 attempts.

Touchdowns 3 Two of Rawls’ Yards per carry 4.9 touchdowns came on 155 yards and 31 *Thomas rawls carries last Saturnumbers through day in CMU’s 38-17 two games this year upset victory over Purdue.

Those numbers were good enough to earn Rawls Mid-American Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors.

Rawls’ tendency to fall forward and his knack for working a play to its completion are what he said sets him apart from past CMU runners.

“One thing I pride myself on is I finish my runs,” he said. “I’m a violent runner. I want my last carry to look like my first one. It’s starts to wear on you, but I want to be the one wearing on the defense.”

But the recent success has not come easy to Rawls, who has dealt with heartache and utter despair through his childhood and young adult life.

“Flint is rough, man,” Rawls admitted. “I just lost a cousin of mine a couple of weeks ago. There is a lot of violence in the city. “ Yet Rawls said he is lucky in the face of immense suffering and twisted football misfortune.

After playing as a middle linebacker in high school, Rawls sat on the bench at U-M and thought of someone hundreds of miles away: Dan Enos.

Rawls recalled the several visits he made to Mount Pleasant to visit CMU’s coach during his time at Flint Northern High School.

“Coach Enos is just such a great person.

I’ve always liked him right from the first time I met him,” Rawls said. “He really cares about his players. He wanted to hear my story. Not many other people have wanted to hear me like that. He wants to give me a chance.”

Making STEM a priority at CMU In just one year, 23 percent more students have signed majors in STEM disciplines

By Malachi Barrett & Megan Pacer Senior Reporters

As America’s economy is increasingly technology based, the demand for more people working science, technology, engineering and mathbased fields is rising. In response, Central Michigan University is making an effort to improve its programs in STEM fields.

“Student success is a major component of the (College of Science and Technology) strategic plan and our objectives include improved first to second year retention, increased graduation rates and shorter time to graduation for our students,” said Ian Davison, dean of the College of Science and Technology.

This can best be reflected in the on going construction of the

$95 million Biosciences Building. However, this is just one of the actions taken by CMU President George Ross and Davison.

“To meet these objectives we have implemented several initiatives such as the new Active Learning Classrooms in Dow and the CST Student Success Center that provides college-based academic advising and career services,” Davison said.

Within the last academic year, there were 2,176 signed majors in STEM disciplines in CST and 645 undergraduate degrees were awarded. This is a 23 percent increase in majors and a 38-percent increase in undergraduate degrees from five years ago.

A three-pronged approach

Colleges on CMU’s campus aren’t

the only ones trying to reinvigorate STEM degrees – it has valuable partners off-campus, as well.

The CMU Research Corporation and Great Lakes Bay Regional Alliance work closely together to develop business talent in both Mount Pleasant and Isabella County.

CMURC not only provides support programs for existing companies, it works to create new companies and eventually bring them to mid-Michigan.

The addition of Charter Communications to the Mount Pleasant SmartZone district is the first major development for STEM in seven years. Located on the south end CMU’s campus, the SmartZone provides a geographical advantage for entrepreneurs and researchers to use CMU assets to assist their endeavors.

These SmartZones include technology business accelerators, much like the CMURC, that use resources from universities and private enterprises to facilitate the commer-

cialization of technology brought about by research. Michigan has 15 SmartZones, but only CMURC serves the Central Michigan area.

Erin O’Brien, president and CEO of CMURC, said the organization will be taking a different approach to bringing in companies after its shell building sat empty. They are looking to put together a “concentrated plan” to acquire tenants who will eventually be able to move into their own space in the SmartZone.

Beginning that process, CMURC aims to create focus groups comprised of young professionals who are starting technology companies to find out what their needs are, O’Brien said.

They plan to go to city officials and the CMU Board of Trustees for pre-approval of occupants in SmartZone buildings after conducting focus groups with developers and investors. This will help them determine what makes financial sense. w STEM | 2

RAWLS | continued from 1 Enos, who originally lost out on Rawls to U-M, now spends fall mornings admiring Rawls’ determination to prove his critics wrong.

“His drive is tremendous.

We tell the rest of our players to keep playing to the echo of the whistle because he is going to break tackles,” Enos said.

The coach wants his team as a whole to embody the threat Rawls shows opposing defenders.

“Football players are attracted to people that work hard. That’s Thomas,” Enos said. “As soon as he got here, he kept his mouth shut and he worked hard. When you come into a new environment like he has, you have to humble yourself and show people you are willing to earn your privileges.

He’s done that.”

Both Enos and Rawls have backgrounds in the Big Ten, though each of them denied they think about their past in the bigger conference. “(Rawls) went to that other school anyway,” Enos joked.

Parking limited for game against Syracuse Central Michigan University Athletic Communications is warning students to take pre-emptive measures to ensure they have parking options for Saturday’s football game against Syracuse.

Strong demand for parking spaces has led to limited options for fans without a pre-purchased parking pass. Lots 62W, 62E, 63W, 63E, 64 and 73 are sold out and unavailable for drive-up sales on Saturday.

Fans without a parking pass must park in either Lots 71 or 75, both of which have limited availability. There is also parking available north of Broomfield Road.

CMU is hosting an

event to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the 1974 football national championship team on Friday at the Soaring Eagle Resort. Scheduled to speak is former head coach Roy Kramer, former Director of Athletics Herb Deromedi and current CMU Director of Athletics Dave Heeke.

Also in attendance will be almost 50 players from the 1974 squad.

The program begins at 7:30 p.m. CMU is off to a 2-0 start for the first time since 2002 going into their contest with the Syracuse.

Technology Engineering and Mathematics Impact Initiative.

At an Economic Outlook Luncheon hosted by the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, Matt Felan, GLBRA president and CEO, said the development of STEM education is one of three immediate initiatives of his organization.

“No. 1 is talent development through STEM education,” he said. “With the premise of building the workforce of tomorrow, to meet the growing needs of our current employers and more importantly, to be able to build that workforce to attract new jobs and businesses to the region.”

Growing the brand of

STEM and helping it grow takes finding the right kind of partners. Recruiting a president of a university with a brand new medical school and a Biosciences Building on the way was a no-brainer for the GLBRA, Felan said.

“It hit me, ‘Where is the president of CMU?’” he said.

“When you look at Central Michigan University, you don’t have to look any further than the medical school to really understand regionalization, because small communities from the Great Lakes Bay Region are really going to be struggling for primary care.”

Ross is not the only higher education official to have a stake in GLBRA’s board.

When Rawls is home during the offseason, he spreads the message of hard work, determination and never giving up.

“It’s great to have a partner like George Ross who is willing to be actively involved on our board on a daily basis.”

“By the grace of God I am blessed to be out of Flint,” Rawls said. “But I don’t forget where I come from. I use it all on the field. I take out all that anger and everything else I’m feeling when I run into people.

Through the joining of these three forces, a multifaceted plan is coming to fruition.

The GLBRA provides the push for STEM research and education, while CMU provides the students who are clamoring for the hard sciences. The CMURC provides the training and guidance for those students to contribute to the surrounding industry.

As more STEM fields and opportunities develop, Ross said the university remains dedicated to developing talented, job-ready students – no matter their major.

Women’s suffrage exhibit comes to Anspach Hall

Emily Mesner | Staff Photographer Sophomore, Ottorino Schincariol helps set up nearly 3,000 American flags with the College Republicans organization to honor those who lost their lives during the September 11, 2001 attacks, on Thursday outside the Charles V. Park Library.

College Republicans pay homage to Sept. 11 Neither the rain nor the cold could deter the College Republicans from setting up their 13th annual Sept. 11 memorial.

In the side yard between the Charles V. Park Library and Fabiano Gardens, nearly 3,000 American flags ran the length of the lawn, each of them representing one of the almost 3,000 individuals who died in the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and on United Flight 93.

At 7 a.m., Ottorino Schincariol, chairman of the College Republicans, repeats the motions of placing flag after flag in the ground.

He still remembers where he was when the “Twin Towers” fell.

“I was in first grade,” he said. “I remembered the principal coming over the loud speaker telling the teachers to meet in the hallway.

The teachers later came back in crying saying that bad men had attacked New York.”

Six members of the College Republicans worked diligently to plug flag after flag into the ground in an impressive display of American patriotism. Four manila signs also stand before the memorial to explain its purpose to passer-bys.

“When you hear the number 3,000 it’s a lot, it’s a big number,” Schincariol said. “But when you see 3,000 then you realize it’s a big number.”

Schincariol hopes that when students walk by the memorial, they will do it with respect and internal reflection on the events of the past.

“I hope people kind of stop their day and look out here and remember what happened,” Schincariol said.

New enrollment numbers

Emily Mesner | Staff Photographer The College Republicans organization set up 2,977 American flags Thursday morning outside of the Charles V. Park Library in memory of the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The flag memorial isn’t anything new to the College Republican. For a Sept. 11 charity golf tournament, the College Republicans also set up a flag memorial at Maple Creek Golf Course in Shepherd.

Marie Sokolosky, social media chair for the College Republicans, can’t remember much of her own Sept. 11, 2001 experience, but still plants flags in hopes that students will stop and remember the fallen.

“This is in the most popular part of campus where most people walk,” Sokolosky said. “I don’t think people would forget this day – college kids, I mean we’re busy and I don’t think we really

have the time to stop and think.

But when you see 3,000 flags just chilling on the lawn you stop and go ‘Oh, hey’. It really puts things into perspective.”

As students walked by in the early morning, several stopped to glance at the memorial in homage or to take pictures, doing just as Schincariol intended. The flags will stay on the lawn next to the UC walking pathway until the following evening, when members of the College Republicans will meet again for takedown and clean up.

One of the students who stopped to take in the memorial was Brianna Edwardson, a sophomore from San Antonio,

Texas. She cited the sheer number of flags as the reason that she stopped, and then commended the College Republicans for their efforts in paying tribute to those who lost their lives in the 2001 terrorist attack.

“It definitely hits you hard because you have to remember [Sept. 11],” She said. “It’s just overwhelming sometimes. But it’s a good overwhelming.”

Flags which spell out the numbers “911” also adorn the front grass of the UC, done by a fraternity from Greek Life sometime late on the night of Sept. 10.

Celebrating the 94th anniversary of women’s suffrage, CMU welcomes the Petticoat Patriots, an exhibit which highlights the events during the 75 year fight for women’s rights.

Starting Monday, Anspach Hall’s first floor will house the “How Michigan Women Won the Vote” exhibit. Lasting until Nov. 4. the exhibit explores the major role that Michigan personally played in helping women achieve their right to vote.

Engaging stories, images and artifacts will be on display to help attendees learn about a crucial moment in history.

Interactive elements will also be present at the event, such as a voting booth, with a “Vote Here” sign and ballot box. The stories of notable Michigan women who participated in the suffragist movement will also be on display, including that of Clara B. Arthur and Olympia Brown.

Twenty other women’s stories will also be featured.

Sponsored by the College of Humanities and Social and Behavioral Sciences, the event is free to all students.

wouldn’t be scared.”

The five panelists discussed the impact that students have on elections, even during midterm election years. She said students should vote even if they have other things to do that day.

“We should have this sense of urgency to vote,” she said. “Then get engaged in our community and then actively do things instead of just voting.”

SGA senator Brynn McDonnell, a Rockford senior, said she believes it is the civic responsibility of students to educate themselves about voting and common issues so they can truly make a change.

“If we look at the generation we have right now, it’s larger than the baby boomer generation. Our generation is also more progressive than any other generation,” McDonnell said. “Certain political

affiliations understand this and are scared of this.

They want to make sure it’s as difficult to vote as possible. They know that if students vote, their jobs are on the line.”

Meanwhile, panelist Joyce Baugh, a political science and public administration faculty member, said midterm elections are important this year. She added that statewide and local government elections are just as important.

“So much of what impacts our lives everyday is at the state and local level,” Baugh said. “We forget about other elections because we’re so focused on presidential elections. Vote in state and local elections, your voice will be heard a lot faster” The argument not to vote was brought up throughout the discussion by Gerrit Elenbaas, a Greenville senior, because

of its corruption in today’s politics.

Elenbaas said he believes that by not affiliating with a party but then voting for a third party is consenting to the broken system.

“It’s expressed that voting is the only way to express your political

power,” Elenbaas said “If you’re not taking advantage of it you’re being a lazy citizen. I would just like to suggest that there are alternative ways than thinking that voting is some great form of expression. Voting is misguided.”

Despite an announcement Wednesday by President George Ross stating new enrollment numbers would be announced Thursday, Steve Smith, director of public relations, said the final numbers are not ready. He said they would be released as soon as the final calculations are totaled.

Freshmen enrollment at Central Michigan University grew by 25 percent for the fall 2014 semester, Ross said compared to a year ago.

International enrollment has also increased to 1,062 students from 56 countries, Ross said.

Most of the students come from Saudi Arabia, followed by China and India.

Ross mentioned enrollment the day before the university’s official count day, at the Mount Pleasant Chamber of Commerce’s Economic Outlook Luncheon.

Program Board brings hypnotist to Warriner Hall His website calls him a “magician of the mind” with a “tour-de-force of high-energy hypnosis [show] like you’ve never seen before.” And on Sept. 19, hypnotist and mentalist Joshua Seth will bring his show to Central Michigan University.

An award winning performer at Hollywood’s famed Magic Castle, Seth has also starred in a number of voice acting roles in shows such as Digimon, Batman and more than 65 others, according to his website.

Gracing Japanese and South Korean TV dramas, Seth can be considered a modern day International Man of Mystery.

Hosted by the CMU Program Board, the event will take place at Platcha Auditorium in Warriner Hall from 7:00p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and is free to students.

Josh Palmer, president of the CMU Program Board, said that it is custom for CMU to bring hypnotists to campus, but this will be different from previous performers.

“We have had a tradition of having a hypnotist every year,” Palmer said. “[Seth] is one of the most high demand hypnotists and mentalists in the world.”

EDITORIAL | CMU on right track, should now focus on keeping us here

Columnist

Build us something we all can use

A

ttracting a sizable freshman class has been Central Michigan University’s foremost challenge and headache

in recent memory. With new enrollment figures projecting a 25-percent increase in new incoming freshmen, CMU has begun to address this concern.

We support efforts made by the administration to boost our enrollment, to keep us here until graduation and to keep the university thriving into the future. Yet we question whether they have a vested interest in listening to our existing student body and their on-campus concerns.

Yesterday, President George Ross announced the release of the new enrollment figures and the groundbreaking for a campus hotel. He

did so in front of the Mount Pleasant business people, and it put a positive face on the university’s problems.

The hotel is geared at brining in new visitors to the school, while at the same time, putting up valuable donors and alumni when they visit. It is also going to help our hospitality students have a real-life learning lab.

And let us be clear, the university will not be spending your tuition money to get this

project off the ground. The onus has been placed on the developer, Lodgco, to provide the capital to build and run the hotel, while CMU collects rent checks through a 30-year land lease.

Having this hotel as a lab shows that Ross and his administration have a plan to expand upon programs they know are going to have an impact on future enrollment.

But it still isn’t geared completely toward student

use. It is instead just another piece of fancy window dressing trying to convince the community at large that CMU has staying power.

On Facebook and Twitter, our students questioned the need for the hotel since the beginning of this hotel storyline. Instead, they brought up a concern much more vital to students and their ability to even just attend their classes on time: Parking.

As our enrollment grows, we’re nearing a definite limit of physical capacity that administrators like Steven Johnson, vice president of Enrollment and Student Services, warned about.

Despite how much CMU desperately wants more bodies in classes and walking to get degrees, there is a point where too many is too

much to handle.

Ross knows that as well.

Students are wondering why the university won’t address the issue of additional parking, especially as we begin to grow again.

It would be silly to build a parking garage on campus for financial reasons alone, but the need for more parking is a genuine issue.

The university and the administration must add more parking, especially as we increase our numbers.

All students want is to have their concerns heard, and what they need from the university is to find solutions to their day-today struggles, like finding a parking spot before class – not new hotels that they may never use while attending this great university.

A collection of tweets displaying memories and strong emotions from CMU students and alumni

On 9/11?

Vegetarianism is a lifestyle choice I made for myself, so I appreciate all efforts made to accommodate it. However, eating at the Central Michigan University dining halls as a vegetarian can be complicated.

I don’t simply go to the dining halls. I can’t risk using one of my precious meals when there’s nothing to eat besides fruits and vegetables. Sometimes, I am forced to eat nothing but cheese pizza, unless I am feeling brave enough to opt for the “meatless chicken.”

I know sometimes people are just curious about vegetarianism, and I absolutely respect that. But I don’t understand why some people have such critical attitudes about vegetarianism or veganism.

Please stop telling me that animals will still die even if I don’t eat them. It’s a personal choice. Even if they still die, I won’t be the one to eat them.

I am not alone in feeling this way. According to a study published by Vegetarian Times, 3.2 percent of adults in America are vegetarians. Assuming this statistic holds relatively true on campus, about 860 students are vegetarians.

Maybe that seems like a small number in comparison to the size of the student body, but let me speak for the 3.2 percent when I say that vegetarianism is an important way of life for every individual who chooses it.

I knew it would be difficult for me to find food at events and at restaurants. I’m not trying to make people feel guilty when I don’t eat the food offered. I’m just trying to maintain a balanced diet while staying true to my beliefs.

I appreciate CMU’s efforts to make food for the 3.2%. But sometimes, cheese pizza just gets a little old.

For me, eating meat differs from accidentally eating a food I dislike. Vegetarianism is a way of life I truly believe in and have stood by for five years. And some people don’t eat meat for religious reasons.

Last week, my fellow vegetarian friend and I were getting breakfast in the RFOC and came across eggs labeled “vegetarian.” Had my friend not seen the ham in the “vegetarian” dish, we could’ve accidentally eaten meat and violated what we stand for. What seems a simple mistake for some could be a sin for others.

You don’t have to adopt vegetarianism or agree with it or even understand it, but please at least respect those who choose to practice it.

Pizza and networking event aims to end sexual assault

By Sydney Smith Staff Reporter

Students striving to make social change on Central Michigan University’s campus had the opportunity to collaborate on Sept.11 at a pizza and networking event presented by the Women and Gender Studies Program.

The event was an opportunity for students passionate about ending campus sexual assault to discuss planned events for the semester and establish relationships to gain a more significant reach on CMU’s campus. Dr. Laurel Zwissler facilitated the event and highlighted the importance of each RSO talking to each other and coordinating calendars.

“It seemed like a productive

thing to do to get groups that were already working against sexual violence,” Zwissler said. “It’s an opportunity to make a collective calendar and learn to be riotous and active and amazing feminists on campus.”

Students representing various organizations were in attendance to support each other’s advocacy in order to turn plans for making an impact on ending sexual assault a reality.

“I think this is a topic that a lot of people are interested in and it’s cool to see and hear people talking about it,” said Garden City senior Rachel Roberts. “It’s all about getting people talking and having conscious raising discussions that raise awareness.”

During the event, each

RSO presented their tentative calendar of events for the school year so that none were overlapping and groups could assist in advertising and supporting each other’s events.

The goal for the evening was to establish a collective calendar.

“It’s great to see a whole community of feminists at CMU who are supportive of each other,” Garden City senior Alayna Smith said.

Students were able to establish plans for making a larger impact at CMU by uniting several different RSO’s that have the same goals in mind, some of those goals being empowerment, ending campus sexual assault and making the community a safer and more supportive one. “[Sexual assault] is not

New Venture Competition kickoff inspires young entrepreneurs Malachi Barrett Senior Reporter

Illuminated by the achievements of past students on the projector behind him, Charles Crespy inspired nearly 150 students to make their business dreams a reality.

Crespy, dean of the College of Business Administration at Central Michigan University, tossed aside buzzwords and catchy business lingo; he let Shakespeare do the job.

“There is a tide in the affairs of men which taken on the flood leads on to waves of fortune,” Crespy said slowly.

“When omitted, all the journey

of their lives is mired in the shallows and misery. On this full tide let us now sail; for if we don’t we will lose the venture.”

This year, $75,000 will be awarded to students to support their business dreams, all through the university’s New Venture Competition.

The program serves as a catalyst for students to turn their ideas into sustainable business ventures. Participating teams gain mentorship from seasoned entrepreneurs with hands-on start up experience as well as alumni, venture capital experts, angel investors and community leaders.

CMU’s New Venture

Competition is only in its fifth year but is recognized nationwide for giving students the opportunity to ride the tide of their ambition. During the summer, it was named the Educational Program of the Year by Automation Alley for positively impacting the region’s skilled labor market.

The experience offers workshops, coaching, and networking over an eight month period, starting in September and culminating on Venture Competition Day in March.

During this time, participants present their ideas and business models to more than 50 judges from across the country. Each

He said the event has gotten so large, they have to host their awards ceremony in McGuirk Arena. The students assembled for the New Venture Competition kick-off in Grawn 150 Wednesday night were from all the university’s academic colleges.

“Our goal is to get the entire campus energized with business ideas, so it’s not just business students (participating), there’s students from all over,” Crespy said. “I think we have made good strides, in that students from every college on campus participated.”

“Participating in the competition was a huge confidence booster,” she added. “I gained connections with lawyers, patent attorneys, venture capitalists; it was a huge opportunity.”

Malice shares book, experience in North Korea

By Rachael Schuit Staff Reporter

Getting up close and personal with a Communist dictator might be the epitome of intimidation, but for author Michael Malice, it was just another day at work.

The author of Dear Reader: The Unauthorized Autobiography of Kim Jong il, shared his stories with one of Central Michigan Unversity’s newest Registered Student Organizations, Liberty in North Korea, or LiNK. The goal of LiNK is to rescue two North Korean refugees by the end of the school year.

“It’s almost impossible to describe what it’s like stepping foot in North Korea,”

Malice said of his experience.

The idea for the book came when Malice’s friend suggested he write a book about the deceased leader.

“I was very, very nervous, especially having this book in mind,” he said. “I’m shocked by how overwhelmingly positive it is and how supportive people were (of the book.) It’s very, very flattering.”

Malice, who was born in the former Soviet Union, described the impact visiting North Korea had on him.

“Instead of this being an ideological project it hits close to home,” he said.

With a reputation for gloom, despair and a complete lack of personal freedom, Malice said he

was surprised to see people doing things like skipping on the streets and having moments of happiness.

Yet the horrors were still there, and Malice said he feels the need to spread awareness regarding what’s going on in North Korea.

“I at least have to try to do something,” he said. “Being Russian and Jewish I had this big sense of survivors guilt. That could have been me in those concentration camps.”

Victoria Dennis, the Students for Liberty campus coordinator, was moved by Malice’s stories.

“It’s something I think is really important because North Korea is one the most unfree places,” said Dennis, a New Baltimore sopho-

Dennis also said that hearing someone speak who visited North Korea was powerful.

CLASH WITH ‘CUSE

By Taylor DesOrmeau | Staff Reporter

A

pair of under-the-radar college football teams collide in Mount Pleasant on Saturday when Central Michigan(2-0) hosts Syracuse (1-0) at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

The Chippewas carry the momentum of a 38-17 thrashing of Big Ten foe Purdue into the matchup. Syracuse barely escaped Villanova in a double-overtime thriller in the Orange’s home opener.

Watch the game live at noon Saturday on ESPNews or Listen on WCFX 95.3 in Mount Pleasant

Sophmore QB Cooper Rush

With each team looking to grab the at tention of their respective and college football audiences, CMU senior defensive tackle Leterrius Walton said there is one player the Chippewas are focused on: Quarterback Terrel Hunt.

Hunt was ejected from Syracuse’s first game of the year after he threw a punch at an opponent after a play.

“Oh yeah, we’re going to get in his head,” Walton said. “We’re going to stay back (in the backfield) giving him pressure and harass him all day.”

Hunt was 10-for-17 with 94 yards passing and 25 yards on the ground before his ejection.

Syracuse Head coach Scott Shafer decided against suspending Hunt for Saturday’s game against CMU. “It’s an emotional game and if you’ve never played it, you don’t know what it’s like to get frickin’ pummeled,” Shafer told syracuse. com. “There are people on your back and people talking to you and you react.

We’ve all done it.”

The Chippewas, meanwhile, say they are focusing on winning the turnover battle as they enter the game as a six-and-a-half point underdog.

Six picks plus a fumble recovery have been a key factor in the CMU’s 2-0 start.

“That’s something we focus on every practice,” said senior linebacker Justin Cherocci. “Committing as many turnovers as we can.”

CMU heads into Saturday’s game leading the nation with six interceptions. The Chippewas had 14 interceptions during the entire 2013 season.

“We’re going to be disruptive up front,” said head coach Dan Enos. “If you can get a quarterback feeling the rush a little bit, maybe throwing the ball a little before he wants to or get him unsettled, good things will happen.”

Enos said he is excited about the Chippewas’ successful start. However the fifth-year head coach says he knows the dangers of getting “too comfortable,” with winning.

“You have to be able to handle adversity and handle success,” he said. “We’ve got to beat a good football team Saturday.”

four keys to beating Syracuse

Senior QB Terrel Hunt

Run the ball

1

The Orange gave up a total of 13 first downs on the ground during their 27-26 double-overtime win against Villanova in Week 1. CMU has had no trouble running the ball through the first two games this season.

Senior running back and now Mid-American Conference honoree Thomas Rawls appears to be hitting his stride. This would be a perfect time for Enos to let Rawls loose.

Get a quick start

In order to beat ACC foe Syracuse when the Orange 2 comes to Mount Pleasant for the two teams’ Week 3 matchup, the Chippewas Own the turnover margin will need to be at the top of their game. Here 3 are four important storylines heading into Saturday’s Hold the line showdown at Kelly/Shorts 4 Stadium. Kickoff is set for 12 p.m.

The Chippewas started the season extremely slow when they were down to Chattanooga 16-0 in the first quarter and struggled for offense in the first half of CMU’s home opener. Adversely, when CMU jumped out to a quick two-score lead on Purdue ten days later, things were a little less nerve-racking for Head coach Dan Enos’ group. Making mistakes with the lead usually is much less catastrophic than doing so while trailing. CMU needs to be firing on all cylinders from the first drive of the game.

This was the biggest factor in CMU’s two victories so far this season. The CMU defense has picked off opposing quarterbacks six times through the first two games of the year and scored nearly 30 points off of turnovers.

Syracuse protected the ball well in its first game of the year, putting the ball on the ground just once.

An electric atmosphere at CMU’s first Saturday home game of the year will likely motivate the men in the maroon and gold to “lay the boom down on somebody,” as assistant coach Archie Collins said.

Enos and his team have spent the last several days studying the famous multi-faceted blitz packages Syracuse uses on a game-to-game basis.

The Orange totaled nine tackles for a loss during Week 1 action, the most of any team in the ACC. Enos said pass protecting will be key against Syracuse, especially for running backs.

Backfield assistant coach Gino Guidugli mentioned Saylor Lavallii as the Chippewas best pass-protecting running back.

“All of our guys are working on that every day,” Guidugli said. “That’s going to be huge for us this weekend with as much (blitzing) as Syracuse likes to do.”

Kickoff against the Orange is set for noon tomorrow at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

Beating Syracuse would be crucial Taylor DesOrmeau Staff Reporter

Forget about stomping on Purdue. Forget about sneaking past Iowa.

Forget about wins over the boat-rowers from Kalamazoo and that win in some cheesy bowl game.

A win against Syracuse on Saturday would be the biggest accomplishment of Head coach Dan Enos’ career.

Enos has a few memorable wins to be proud of.

But to stay undefeated and beat the Orange in front of the home crowd would surpass them all.

While it shows toughness to go on the road and beat a good team, the feeling just is not the same as doing so in front of your own fans.

This week, a Power Five conference team will grace Mount Pleasant for only the fourth time in 20 years.

Like Purdue, Syracuse resides in one of the most competitive conferences in football. Yet, unlike Purdue, Syracuse has more than one win against an FBS (Division I-A) team in the past year.

CMU hasn’t had much luck against the ACC— they’re 0-11 in all-time games against teams currently in the conference—likely being part of the reason the Orange are six-and-a-half point favorites.

But Enos has the tools to contend.

He has a Big Ten-quality running back in senior Thomas Rawls, who proved he can boil over a defense from any conference with a monstrous 155 yards on 31 carries against Purdue. The man just doesn’t go to the ground.

One of Syracuse’s biggest difficulties when it scraped out a 27-26 doubleovertime victory over FCS (Division I-AA) Villanova was stopping the run.

They won’t have time to be cute like they did against Purdue, when they gave Rawls only three carries in the entire first quarter.

Rawls needs to see the ball early and often.

Enos finally has a formidable defense. This defense gravitates toward the ball like a bunch of five-yearolds playing soccer. A defense that isn’t only stocked with playmakers, but has the ability to consistently force three-and-outs.

There is no reason not to be optimistic when you are 2-0. This can be the team to take down the Orange, to re-energize the Chippewa fan base and to silence the “Fire Enos” chorus once and for all.

Or at least for seven more days.

Soccer to play Air Force, Colorado College in homecoming for McGahey

By Neil Rosan Staff Reporter

Air Force and Colorado College will not be CMU’s only opponents heading into this weekend’s games, though they are the only two names on this weekend’s schedule.

The team said it will have to fight a drastic altitude difference during the visit to the Rocky Mountain state. Colorado has an average elevation of 6,800 feet, which is 6,029 feet higher than Mount Pleasant’s elevation of 771.

“The physical and psychological impacts of the altitude are real,” said Head coach Peter McGahey. “You can minimize the psychological impact, you can push through it, but certainly not all of it.

“Unfortunately, we do not have the ability to acclimated here. We can’t simulate 7,000 feet here in Mount Pleasant.”

The trip west serves as a homecoming for McGahey, who is a native of Colorado.

He played for the University of Denver from 1992-1996 and served as the technical director for the Colorado Fusion soccer club in the mid-2000s.

The Chippewas will face an Air Force Falcons team off to a 1-3-0 start. The Falcons have been involved in some tight matches with three of them going into overtime.

“Larry (Friend) does a very excellent job with his team,” McGahey said. “He has been a very good friend of mine for some time. They will be ready to go come Friday.”

Air Force forward Ally Swift will likely pose the biggest threat to the Chippewas defensively. Swift scored three goals last season and has one so far this year.

CMU will take on Colorado College two days later.

CC finished 15-4-3 last season and are returning six starters and 15 letter winners.

Field Hockey hosts VCU Friday

By Ian Ashbury Staff reporter

Still in search of its first win of the 2014 season, the Central Michigan University Field Hockey team hosts Virginia Commonwealth University (1-2) today.

The Chippewas have been seeing extra reps inside the circle after struggling in the early stages of the season The VCU Rams have been led by junior Alexis Albright, who tallied the most points in one game on the team with four.

VCU has attempted 52 shots through the first three games of 2014 to CMU’s 16.

The Chippewas have allowed opponents to put 80 shots on goal so far this season. CMU has managed 10 penalty shots this season, while VCU has attempted 15 bonus tries.

The Chippewa’s leading shot-getter is Cayleigh Immelman who has attempted to score seven times. Immelman will attempt to reach the

back of the cage against VCU goalkeeper Kendall Cliffton, who has allowed seven goals so far this season.

VCU is allowing opponents to attempt an average of 17 shots per period, while CMU has taken just eight first period shots overall.

Though CMU has lost its first four games of the year, Head coach Cristy Freese said her squad remains positive.

“No one likes being down four games,” Freese said. “Our

team is doing a nice job of coming in the next day (after a loss) and working hard.”

During practice this week, Freese and her staff have attempted to replicate a gametime atmosphere and the inevitable pressure it brings.

“I want our team to feel success before we go back on the road,” Freese said. “This game is seen as a final tune up before heading to Ann Arbor to face Providence.”

Davis, Guevara talk 2014 schedules

Central Michigan Life | File Art Coach Sue Guevara shouts commands to her team in the fourth quarter on Feb. 27 in McGuirk Arena.

Men to host local teams, see EMU twice this winter

Women face Kentucky, South Carolina during 2014-15

Men’s Basketball

After a 10-21 (3-15 in MidAmerican Conference) finish last season, the release of the new schedule provides CMU basketball with a chance to look forward and put 2013 behind them for good.

Following an exhibition against Saginaw Valley State to kick off their schedule, the Chippewas will play host to local school Alma College.

Head coach Keno Davis said the benefits of hosting a local competition are large.

“As we try to build the non-conference part of our schedule, we looked to give an opportunity to some local teams to play a division one school,” Davis said. “(Playing local schools) will also help our attendance.”

The men have three road non-conference games to play

this winter: They are against Bradley University, McNeese State and Northwestern University.

The matchup against NWU also serves as an opportunity for Davis’ squad to compete in front of a national television audience.

“It will be our biggest nonconference game this season,” Davis said. “Not only are we playing a Big Ten school with all of its publicity, but we also have a fair amount of alumni in the Chicago area.”

The Chippewas will play a great deal of home games this season. This comes as part of Davis’ effort to engage CMU students.

“You want to build a homecourt advantage and build as many opportunities in front of your students and fans as possible,” he said.

The MAC will likely be highly competitive when it

comes to men’s basketball this season, Davis said.

“You can make the case that Toledo, Western and Eastern Michigan were the best teams in the conference last year,” he said.

Even though two months separate the team from its first game, it is still not too early for Davis to judge the state of the MAC for the upcoming season. Understanding hype without being overtaken by it is an important job for a coach to do.

Here in September, coach Davis said he understands that all too well.

“As a fan and as a coach you always look ahead and fill out the rankings in your head,” Davis said.

“We open our conference schedule at Toledo so we get a chance to see them on their court and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

This year’s women’s basketball schedule features several important non-conference matchups.

“I’m looking forward to all of (CMU’s nonconference games)” said head coach Sue Guevara.

“When you have a team like ours with experience, inexperience and a lot in between, they’re all important.”

Last year CMU lost non-conference games to Kentucky, Purdue, Notre Dame and Duke. The Wildcats are on that list of teams CMU will face again for 2014-15.

Mid-American Conference season,” Guevara said.

“Going on the road to play those non-conference will go a long way for us.”

The women will compete in two key nonconference tournaments in 2014.

CMU will compete in Las Vegas on Nov. 28, and in Minnesota in late December.

The Chippewas will take on Richmond and Oregon in Las Vegas, and face South Carolina in Minnesota as well as hosting the Golden-Gophers later that weekend.

“Both tournaments are on the road so they will both present challenges to our team,” Guevara said.

“Minnesota has some new personnel and South Carolina has a chance to be in the top five.”

A reoccurring theme in Guevara’s scheduling has been the inclusion of the Dayton Flyers.

In 2013, the two teams met twice, once in Mount Pleasant, which Crystal Bradford’s game-winning buzzer-beater.

“We’re scheduling games to test our team,” Guevara said. “ We need to see where we are, where we need to go and how we need to get there.”

Though the first week of the season is still weeks away, Guevara said her squad is already preparing for action.

“Every day, no matter who we’re playing, it is very important for us to accomplish the same mission we’ve always had,” she said. “Winning a MAC Championship.”

Central Michigan Life Sports Desk picks Saturday’s CMU football game This is a rare matchup for the Chippewas, and it also has the chance to be the most evenly matched non-conference game on the schedule for Head coach Dan Enos’ team.

Coming back into relevance with an Atlantic Coast Conference membership and a victory against Minnesota in the Texas Bowl last season, the Orange stack up well against CMU. This will be just the second time these two teams have ever played each other, with the last result a CMU loss in 1999. A strong CMU rushing attack

Syracuse is arguably the best team the Chippewas will face all season.

The Orange went 7-6 last year in the Atlantic Coast Conference and finished their season with a bowl game victory. While this year’s Syracuse team won’t be competing for one of the four playoff spots, it has enough returning starters that it should challenge the Chippewas— even on the road. I expect CMU to put up a strong fight, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they pulled off the upset. But everything would have to go right to upset the Orange.

Joe Judd staff reporter

Final Score: Central Michigan 44, Syracuse 35 pitted against a recently struggling Orange defense should benefit the Chippewas. Expect CMU to start the season 3-0 for the first time since the Mike DeBord régime in 2002.

Final Score: Syracuse 27, Central Michigan 23

Syracuse poses a favorable matchup for CMU this weekend. The Chippewas run game, led by senior Thomas Rawls, appears to be hitting its stride. The Syracuse defense has had a bye week to develop just enough rust to make a difference. Purdue could probably beat most ACC teams. CMU starts 3-0 to begin the season.

Winless volleyball record is deceiving

Searching for success Winless Chips prep for Evansville Invite

By Gregg Wickliffe Staff Reporter

After failing to capture a single win in its first two tournaments of the season, Central Michigan University’s volleyball team sets its eyes on the Evansville Invitational this weekend.

The Chippewas travel to Evansville Ind., following a disappointing 0-3 showing at the Chippewa Invitational last weekend.

CMU coach Erik Olson said avoiding “crucial” mistakes will be the deciding factor in the women grabbing their first victory of the season this weekend or not.

Olson emphasized fundamentals in practice this week.

“You want the other team to try to break your system,” he said. “Then you have to change what you’re doing.

But instead, we were kind of breaking what we were doing.”

Here is a quick look at who CMU will take on this weekend:

Evansville

The Chippewas starts the tournament by hosting Evansville, which comes into the event with a 2-6 regular season record. The Purple Aces are led by senior standout Ashley Ring who was named Missouri Valley Conference Player of the

Week last week. Ring tallied 69 kills, 35 digs and seven blocks over the course of Evansville’s first four matches. Ring was also named to the all-tournament team at the Kent State tournament last weekend.

Ring’s potential impact on this weekend’s match has forced Olson to take a different approach in his preparation.

“I am out there mimicking one of the players we are going to see,” he said, referencing Ring. “I’m doing some weird things with my approach that our team is not used to seeing.”

IUPUI

The women will play IUPUI in the first of two matches on Saturday. The Jaguars have posted a 2-5 record so far. The Chippewas will need to stop junior outside hitter Kaitlyn Hickey who has 68 kills, 71 digs and 13 blocks so far this season.

IUPUI has struggled with errors totaling 135.

DePaul

The Blue Demons are set to face CMU in Saturday’s tournament nightcap. DePaul’s junior outside hitter Saige Gallop will be a player to watch as she comes into the event with 88 kills averaging 3.83 per set leading her team.

The strongest aspect

of DePaul’s game is its defense. The Blue Demons have out-blocked their opponents 60-48.

Keys to success

The CMU women have had problems holding onto the lead through the first six matches of the year.

“I want to stop playing ourselves, that’s probably my biggest concern,” Olson said.

“I want to play an opponent and not us.”

Yet a “positive” and “productive” week of practice has helped the women regain some of their confidence.

“When we practice live play, it keeps them much crisper and mentally sharp,” Olson said. “It has helped cut down on a lot of mistakes.

We are playing a lot cleaner.”

Even with a positive output in practice, Olson said

execution in a live game can not be easily mimicked.

“We still have to play another team,” he said. “I don’t know how adaptable we are right now, but we are playing better volleyball.”

Taylor Robertson and Kylie Copple are two Chippewas Olson said to keep an eye on this weekend.

“We are devoting almost a entire day to getting (Robertson) going,” Olson said. “She did some great things blocking earlier in the week. Now she’s doing some great things offensively.”

Olson said focusing on winning is not always a good thing.

“We have to stop using the word win,” he said. “It’s about the process, it’s not about winning. If you take care of the little things the winning will come.”

Every sports team believes it has the potential to go all the way to the top. But when reality strikes, it can be a difficult pill to swallow.

For Central Michigan University’s volleyball team, the beginning of the year has not exactly been smooth sailing. In fact, the road has been quite bumpy.

The women started the season 0-6, failing to meet the early expectations the team set for itself at the start of the year.

One thing the team can rely on is the fact that they still believe they can and will be successful. There has not been any sign of giving up, nor has there been any sign of division within the squad, which is always a positive.

The true test of a team is how they react during high-pressure situations, and the Chippewas have yet to fold.

Head coach Erik Olson is keeping his team motivated and focused throughout the early losing spell. He has switched personnel and has been working on putting the women in the best position to make plays.

Now all that is left is execution.

The women have shown signs of progress, scratching and clawing in matches against

Drake University and Wisconsin Green Bay. CMU also gave a clearly superior Butler group a run for it’s money.

Chippewas like freshman Jordan Bueter, Junior Angelique White and senior Danielle Thompson all show signs of promise. Once senior Kaitlyn McIntyre begins to catch fire, we could see this team take off.

Unfortunately, CMU cannot seem to stay out of its own way. The Chippewas have struggled with limiting mistakes, constantly shooting themselves in the foot at the absolute worst time.

Serving errors, lack of aggressiveness and lack of execution has doomed the Chippewas so far.

The Mid-American Conference schedule is still a couple of weeks away. If the Chippewas can right the ship before conference play rolls around, the season could still be salvageable.

As the Chippewas travel to play in the Evansville tournament this weekend, the sense of urgency should be as high as it has ever been.

CMU absolutely has to come out of the event with at least one victory if not two.

Falling to 0-9 could be irreversibly bad.

I do not think a MAC Championship is out of reach, and I know the Chippewas will definitely back me up on that.
