Q&A: President Myers reflects on his tenure at K-State ALEXANDER HURLA asst. news editor

Kansas State President Richard B. Myers, who began his tenure as the university’s 14th president in 2016, is set to retire on Feb. 11, 2022. He announced his plan to retire in the spring of 2021. The Kansas Board of Regents selected Richard Linton to succeed Myers as the next president. Myers sat down with The Collegian’s Alexander Hurla to reflect on his time at K-State.

WHAT MOTIVATED YOU TO BECOME K-STATE’S PRESIDENT IN 2016? At that point, nothing was motivating me to be the K-State president. I had been out of the military for ten years. I had done other things — some public board work, some speaking, some teaching, some

charitable work — and I was starting to scale back in 2016 and spend some more time with children and grandchildren. I got the call if I would be the interim, and I remember telling the Board of Regents who asked me that question, I very distinctly said, “OK, this is April. You better have somebody by December because

if you don’t, you’re going to see red dots heading east, and those will be my taillights.” So, I thought it was going to be a short-term sort of thing until I got to campus, and, mainly in August of 2016, when campus comes back to life, I was realizing I was appointed in April, President Kirk Schulz was here until graduation, so there’s not a lot going on in the summer. When this campus came to life, I was just smitten with it. I said, “This is great with the vibrancy of this campus and the people we work with.” I got a lot of encouragement from people up to and including Coach [Bill] Snyder, who said, “I want you to take the fulltime position.” There were a lot of challenges at the time, state funding, and so forth. A n d there w e r e things where I thought being a Kansan by birth, being an alum, having a different reputation not associated necessarily with academia that perhaps my voice could be helpful. I don’t know if it was or not, but I wanted to make an attempt to try to get more resources for our higher ed in the state of Kansas. Knowing all the chal-

lenges, I just wanted to help. So, I got very, very enthusiastic about that and went back to my wife and family. I said, “Hey, I’m thinking about putting my name in the hat.” And they all said in the end, “If you want to do that, do it.” So, I did, and fortunately and luckily, I was chosen to be the next president, but it was never on my bucket list. I mean, I never thought about doing this. But, having said all that and then having fallen in love with students, faculty and staff in August of 2016 when I was here full-time, it’s been one of the most fulfilling things I’ve ever done in my life. Knowing what I know now if I hadn’t done that, I would have kicked myself for not taking the opportunity to serve my alma mater.

WHAT DID YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT BEING PRESIDENT? It’s always the people, right? It’s always the people. So, great relationships, I think, with lots of different students, being with the Student Governing Association regularly, teaching in the classroom and trying to stay connected with students. When I first got here, before COVID, we did Pizza with the President, and anybody could sign up and come over to the Union where we had free pizza and cookies, and we could talk about anything they wanted. So, just getting to know people and having them get to know me. With faculty, they’re so innovative and inspirational in the way they teach and the way they think about students. Everything associated with a land-grant university made it a delight to be here. I think the overarching thing is that higher education plays such an important role in our society. It is a way to bring people — if they’re not already there — into the mid-

dle-class. If you get a college education, if you’re first-generation, you affect the whole family, not just you, not just your parents. The whole family system now has a different goal, thinking, “Oh, look what they did. I can do that.” To provide the access and opportunity here at a reasonable cost by relative standards. And to be a part of that, trying to help people’s lives and have a more educated citizen out there and a more productive citizen is a very noble mission. It’s as noble as anything anybody does, so I love that part of it — that we’re really making a contribution to society.

WHAT HAVE BEEN SOME OF YOUR BIGGEST ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT? You have to realize that nothing is done by one person. We followed our 2025 Vision that was worked on by the previous president. That is about ready to run its course, and the new president will come up with a new strategic plan. The way that was done was the whole campus. It wasn’t the president who’d sit here and say, “Here’s our plan, go do it.” It was everybody, totally collaborative. 2025 gave us our focus. And despite declining state support, declining enrollment so you don’t have as much tuition, we’ve made great progress against every goal in there. That’s not my credit. That’s a credit to this university for following a strategic plan. We had to restructure our budget model. We are now in the implementation phase of the new budget model. Faculty, staff and students helped develop it. Faculty, staff and students are involved in the governance of that budget model, and it’s having the expected outcome that we desired.


We were in the middle of an enrollment decline when I came here, and no one could answer why it was going down: we just had no good answers. We hired a national consultant who came in and looked at our enrollment strategies and gave us a good roadmap to turn that around. We’re in the middle of that turnaround right now. We’ve put a lot of resources into that, and I think if it hadn’t been for COVID, we would already be going back up. We’re the best value in that state by anybody’s measure – everybody measures that all the time, and we do very well on all the surveys. I think when we get people here, and we are now, we’ll start to see enrollment go back up. One other thing is when I was brought on as the president, they had a billion-dollar capital campaign underway to raise, through philanthropy, one billion dollars. When I became president, they raised that to $1.4 billion. I spent a lot of time — as a lot of presidents do — with our friends, supporters, donors, alums, trying to meet that goal. We actually raised $1.6 billion. That’s not me. That’s a whole system of people. It’s powerful. There’s nothing you can attribute to me. It’s the team that gets this stuff done.

WHAT HAVE BEEN SOME OF YOUR BIGGEST CHALLENGES AS PRESIDENT? I think budget is a huge challenge with declining state resources and, on top of that, declining enrollment. So, the two buckets of revenue are the state general fund and tuition. With both of them going down, how do you keep accomplishing the land grant mission with declining resources? So, there’s been a lot of belt-tightening all across campus, and it’s been very, very hard. Then, you get hit by COVID, and we’re two years into this now, and that had its own economic impact. It impacted personally with our faculty, staff and student families. Those are big challenges to work our way through. The way we did that was we had a COVID executive group with all of our shared governance groups represented. I think we managed our way through that pretty well. I think K-State can take a lot of pride in how we managed our way through COVID. We’ve kept ourselves healthy, we got back in the classroom as quickly as any university and we’ve kind of stayed there. So, we’re moving forward, but it’s not over yet.

WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR RETIREMENT?

Archive photo by Morgan Clarke | COLLEGIAN MEDIA GROUP

Taylor Beashore, homecoming committee intern, hands President Richard B. Myers a check of $10,000 raised by the homecoming 5K fundraiser on April 29, 2019.

Six years here deprived me of being with family back in Virginia. The three children and seven grandchildren are all back in Virginia. I look forward to being more a part of the family going forward. Beyond that, I’ve got a lot of dreams and schemes of which my wife, Mary Jo, has not yet said, “That’s a really good idea.” We’ve had a little taste of going on trips in RVs, and one of the thoughts is, “Let’s get an RV and see more of the US, just the two of us and the dog.” Flying was my passion. When I got to K-State, they taught me to fly in ROTC, and that’s been my passion for life. I haven’t flown as a pilot-in-command for many years now, so maybe get back into flying.

The good news is I don’t have to decide. I’m not going to wake up on Saturday the 12th and have a schedule for that day. It’s going to be doing, well, pretty much whatever Mary Jo wants me to do. I’ve never had that feeling in my life, even after I left the military. I’d like to come back here and teach and help in any way the university sees fit. Clearly, staying out of Dr. Linton’s way. I’d never want to be in his way at all. He’s the president, and I’m the has-been, and I’m happy with that. That’s a good role for me. We have bought a condo here in Manhattan because we love this community, and if we didn’t have some tie to make it easy to come back to, it would be like a divorce, and that wouldn’t feel right. So, we want to stay connected but not intrusive.

WHAT DO YOU HOPE YOUR LEGACY AS K-STATE’S PRESIDENT WILL BE? I’m not a big legacy guy. Somebody will have to make that judgment to see where it all fits because a snapshot now is probably not going to be the same snapshot in a year or two years or even ten years. I just hope people recognize how much I loved being here, how fulfilling this was to me and how I loved working with faculty, staff and students.

Civil Rights Teach-In highlights important topics surrounding diversity, inclusion and equity MADISON DANIEL Kansas State’s Diversity and Multicultural Student Affairs celebrated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Observance Week Jan. 22-28. The week-long celebration featured several events, including a day of service, diversity awards, film screenings and more. Wednesday, Jan. 26, marked the 8th annual MLK Civil Rights Teach-In event. The teach-in gave students, faculty, staff and anyone interested in joining the chance to learn about the historical context of Kansas’ origins, the Kaw Nation Treaty Project, the Gordon Park’s Project and several plays written by women of color. The first portion of the

event was led by Lisa Tatonetti, professor of cultural studies in the Department of English, and Mary Kohn, associate professor in the Department of English. The main focus of their discussion was K-State land acknowledgment and the Kaw Nation Treaty Project. Kohn said because she is a linguist, she likes to focus on the etymological meaning of names of places such as Manhattan and Topeka, Kansas, because they say a lot more about the region than we realize. “Places’ names go back to a complex history that maps today do not show,” Kohn said. Through discussion and student-led research projects, the event leaders showed how much land was ceded from the Kaw Nation by the government

during westward expansion. Tatonetti said that this still happens to Native Americans today, but that people can help in several ways. “Students can attend events, take classes, follow Indigenous leaders and news outlets and take action,” Tatonetti said. Kyle Ruder, senior in journalism, attended the teach-in and said he thought Kohn’s take on the etymological meanings of names of places was an interesting perspective. “I thought the website resources they used that showed the meaning of a city’s name was interesting,” Ruder said. “There is so much history that most of us do not know about in the places we live, and this was one way to learn more about that.” The second portion of the discussion focused on the works of Gordon Parks, a Black photographer, author, musician and film director most well known for photojournalism. Katherine Karlin, associate professor in the Department of English, and Cameron Leader-Picone, associate professor and interim director of graduate studies in the Department of English, displayed Parks’ work and the historical context behind it. The event concluded with Shannon Skelton, associate professor in the School of Music, Theatre and Dance, talking about prominent Black playwrights including Kia Corthron, Lynn Nottage and Suzan-Lori Parks. Skelton discussed their work and the messages surrounding life as a Black person. The discussion also included performances from K-State students.

‘Don’t Look Up’: The not-so-funny political satire of today’s political climate, climate change MADISON DANIEL staff writer

“Don’t Look Up” is a political satire following two astronomers from Michigan State University, Dr. Randall Mindy (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Ph.D. student Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence), who discover a comet set to destroy Earth. The film features a wide array of distinguished actors and actresses, including Ariana Grande, Meryl Streep and Timothée Chalamet. From my experience, an excess of big names is usually an attempt to compensate for a subpar script or plot. However, this film changed my mind. While the film has mixed reviews, I believe the filming techniques and script make this film incredibly entertaining and slightly eye-opening. Unlike other political satires like “The Interview,” this film did not come off as satire

from the get-go, but instead a sci-fi drama film. It quickly became evident that it is, in fact, a comedy, but parallels with the serious nature of climate change, the media’s power and role in reporting on important topics and our tumultuous political climate and response to serious issues the world faces. Spoilers ahead. Within the first five minutes, Dibiasky discovers a comet set to hit Earth and ultimately destroy it. Upon learning this information, Mindy contacts NASA and the Head of Planetary Defense, who are also alarmed by this discovery. Unfortunately, when the situation is explained to the President of the United States, President Janie Orleans, the astronomers are quickly shut down. Mindy and Dibiasky frantically work to get the word out in hopes of garnering more support through the media but quickly realize the media will not

take them seriously either. Essentially, no one cares about the world’s impending doom. As the comet gets closer to impact, Mindy and Dibiasky gain notoriety and are finally offered a solution from Orleans. She partners with a tech giant — likely referencing billionaires like Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk — and, surprise surprise, he is more interested in profit than helping save the world. Ultimately, their plans fall through, and the Earth is destroyed. The shocking conclusion of “Don’t Look Up” disappointed some, but I thought it was perfect. The message issues a callto-action, but the ending is what drove this film home because of its raw nature and dark reality. In real life, we will not always have a happy ending, especially if we don’t act on serious issues. It seems to me that anyone who does not like the film might not like that it points out

the reality of our situation and what will happen if we do not act quickly to prevent further climate change. Another thing I really enjoyed about this movie was the techniques and acting. The cadence of Dibiasky’s and Mindy’s voices not only tells you that they are the only sane people, but they emphasize the chaotic nature of their journey in getting the public’s attention. To me, the change in tone symbolized the five stages of grief — because they certainly experienced all of them — and really foreshadowed the rather sad ending. The opposing tones of the activists and the people who should care about the issue made for a more interesting and convincing movie. While this might seem like a small piece of the bigger picture, it made the film easier to understand and relate to. Other techniques that

stood out were the camera angles, lighting and colors. The muted colors and dim lighting in the beginning leave you wondering what will become of their discovery. Throughout the film, we see brighter lighting in the middle when they believe it might be alright, then dim again at the end when they have accepted defeat. The camera angles created a chaotic effect when needed and transported me into the minds of the astronomers. I felt worried at the start with its shakey and quick cuts. I felt frustrated in the middle when they are trying to convince people about the severity of the situation. I felt at ease when the camera angles were more meticulous and basic when they thought the problem was solved. Finally, I felt scared again when everyone realized their plan was not going to stop the comet as the camera panned around the

dinner table on close-ups of the astronomers gathered with family and friends awaiting their impending extinction. I have to admit, this film is incredibly frustrating to watch for the better part of it — not because it is bad, but because you want to jump into the screen and shake the people until they believe what is happening. By the end, though, I was convinced and slightly scared. The film invokes strong emotions through the acting, techniques and messages. In my book, any film that leaves you feeling and thinking that way is a success. Ultimately, I thought “Don’t Look Up” was one of the more entertaining allegorical, political satire films I have seen to date. Whether you are left-leaning or right-leaning, a fan of sci-fi movies or not or just looking for some entertainment, this movie won’t blow up in your face.

Houseplant Parenting: Livening up your living space in college ELLA JUNG staff writer

Houseplants have seen a surge in popularity recently. Some people might only have a few, while others have an indoor jungle taking over their living room. However, when you are just starting out, becoming a plant parent is a daunting endeavor. How do I know what to buy? How often do I water it? Is this plant really kill-proof ? College students have enough to worry about — stressful classes, part-time jobs and extracurriculars — so the last thing they need is a finicky plant. Plants, however, are the perfect addition to any college house, apartment or even dorm. While the dorms and many college rentals don’t allow pets, plants bring life to any space and are a valuable thing to care for. They are air purifiers, oxygen providers and interesting to look at. Many plants are also proven to help boost serotonin, memory and concentration. When first starting out, it can be difficult to choose. The perfect college houseplant should check three boxes: easy to care for, inexpensive and able to grow in a variety of settings. Above all,

you don’t need to travel far to find a plant for your home. Any of these plants can be found at a home improvement store, especially in springtime. Coming in at first place is the ever-popular and vining pothos. These twisting, turning plants come in several varieties, such as marble, neon and plain green. Pothos can easily tolerate low to medium light but thrives in bright, indirect light. Only needing water once every 1-2 weeks (depending on how much light it receives), pothos are great for busy schedules. You can let them grow long or trim them back for a fuller plant. The second is the snake plant. Recognized by its tall stalks and zebra-like stripes, the snake plant is fool-proof. It only needs water about once a week and tolerates multiple light conditions, making the snake plant an easy start. They can grow in any light level but thrive in bright, indirect light. The third is bamboo, a stalklike plant that can easily be forgotten. Fill up an old jar (glass sauce jars are perfect for this) with water and put the bamboo stalks in. Keep in low to medium light, and that’s it. The only care needed is

changing the water every couple of weeks or if it gets exceptionally dirty. Bamboo is also considered lucky, so it’s a win-win situation. Lastly — and potentially the most popular — are the succulents and cacti. These desert plants come in a wide array of sizes, colors and shapes, so there is definitely one for every college setting. These little plants don’t need much water and can easily be put in front of a window. You can buy just one or multiple to make an arrangement. If your college rental doesn’t allow pets (or even if it does), adding a plant really makes a difference! However, if you do have pets, make sure to research what plants might be toxic for animals. Watch how a room instantly brightens up and how you, too, can jumpstart your own indoor jungle.

The smell of freshly brewed coffee, the sound of an espresso machine buzzing and people mingling with friends over a cup of joe greet you as you walk into Manhattan’s newest coffee shop, Flight Crew. However, this is not your ordinary coffee shop: wall décor of planes, vintage stewardesses and a menu board that looks as if you should be searching for your flight terminal showcase the aviation theme throughout the eatery. “I love all things vintage, I love the 40s and 50s and I love traveling,” Heather Hnizdil, owner of Flight Crew, said. “I feel like there’s that wanderlust thing about flying that used to be much more like, ‘Ooh, flying,’ and you dress up to fly, but that’s not there anymore — people wear pajamas [to fly].” After Hnizdil graduated from Kansas State with a degree in printmaking, she

traveled abroad in Taiwan and worked as a designer for a jazz band. She came up with the name Flight Crew for the band but ended up using it herself. “When I decided to name my coffee shop Flight Crew, all these ideas came,” Hnizdil said. “I could do this, this could be called this, and it just snowballed.” Hnizdil said she wasn’t sure what the next step in her career path should be after her time abroad. After some nudging from her sisters, Hnizdil decided to embark on her business journey and made Manhattan home once again. “You just live once, you know, and you might as well risk,” Hnizdil said. “I thought, ‘Let’s see what goes into it,’ and once I decided I’m going to do this, it went really fast. I did start the process in Loveland, Colorado, but one of my sisters works for K-State, and I came and visited in July and saw there was a space available. So, I just called to see what the difference in rent between here and there, and

the more I thought about it, I thought I would love to be in Manhattan again.” Even though Flight Crew is a fairly new business, making its debut this past October, Hnizdil said she has already built a thriving community of customers and staff that bring life to the shop. “Because I’m there all the time, I feel like we’ve been open longer than we have, so it keeps surprising me when daily, every second or third customer says they’ve never been here before,” Hnizdil said. “I’ve enjoyed being back in the community and meeting other business owners on the street. The best part of a coffee shop is it’s a friendly place. I’ve become friends with a lot of customers, and I feel like they’ve become friends with myself and my staff: it’s like building a family.” Hannah Peters, a frequent coffee shop customer around Manhattan, said she has found a new favorite spot upon visiting Fight Crew.

Study abroad program in full swing as students embrace overseas education EDEN BROCKMAN staff writer

The pandemic presented hurdles and hiccups to studying abroad, but now more and more Kansas State students are studying abroad again as programs and universities adapt. Education Abroad Acting Director Brent Holliday said there are currently 82 students abroad, with several more going abroad this semester and around 20 students who studied abroad this past fall. About 210 students would study abroad in a typical spring term before the pandemic. Lauren Rudd, graduate master’s student in interior architecture and product design, is studying abroad in Orvieto, Italy. Rudd said the experience has been amazing so far. “The town here looks like it was pulled out of a storybook … The first couple of days we were here, [the locals] showed us the historical spots of the town like the duomo and the underground cave system, and now we are just spending our days drinking espresso, taking classes and eating gelato,” Rudd said.

Even so, COVID-19 has changed parts of the experience. “We do have to wear masks all of the time, and we have to show our vaccine cards every time we go into a new store or restaurant,” Rudd said. “The biggest thing COVID affected was the process getting here. We had to isolate a week to two weeks before we left to make sure we didn’t get COVID. And then we had to test negative 72 hours

before arriving in Italy.” Through the obstacles, students like Kaia Hayes, junior in hospitality management and French, who is studying in Aix-en-Provence, France, still found the experience of studying abroad worth it because it is a unique opportunity to be a student in another country. “Exploring new cities is cool, but taking classes and everyday life in another country is something you will not get any time else,” Hayes said. “There are so many perks to living abroad while being a student. There are discounts for everything for students in Europe, and there are many programs for students.” Education Abroad advisor Kelly Plazibat said K-State is better prepared to handle COVID-19 abroad through its new insurance policy. “Luckily, K-State recently started working with a new international insurance provider,” Plazibat said. “They cover the cost of quarantine, so hospitalizations, meals and other quarantine-related expenses are now covered under KSU’s international insurance policy that students are all under when they go abroad under one of our programs.”

Holliday said another silver lining to studying abroad during the pandemic is that students get to spend more time in their host country. “There has been a shift to more singular location experiences rather than multi-country study tours for obvious reasons — mostly relating to regulations

around COVID,” Holliday said. “One silver lining is that students are engaging more with their host country and city, and they are developing more friendships locally.” Hayes agreed with Holliday, saying she has already benefited a lot from the friendships that she has made abroad. “I did not realize how many people I would be meeting, which is so cool,” Hayes said. “I have made so many friends and am already close with my roommate. I am excited to keep building these relationships.” If interested in going abroad, Rudd suggests doing it. “I haven’t even been here for ten days yet, and I am so in love with this experience,” Rudd said. “Being here — fully immersed in another culture completely unlike my own — has pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to grow in new ways. I like who I am as a person more because of it.” Holliday said that students should take the first step and meet with their education abroad advisor if they are curious about what opportunities might be available to them on an education abroad experience. “Meeting with someone in our office is a great first step, and you are not committed to anything at that step,” Holliday said. “It is just about learning and exploring opportunities that exist.” “If students want to have an education abroad experience, I do not want them to feel like they can’t at this time,” Plazibat said. “We are doing everything we can to make that a reality for them.” The education abroad office is located at 304 Fairchild hall and can be reached at overseas@ksu.edu.

Men’s basketball can’t get offense going against Baylor, falls 74-49 LANDON REINHARDT sports editor

Against a No. 4-ranked Baylor team known for their stringent defense, the Kansas State men’s basketball team (10-9, 2-6) couldn’t reach the half-century mark. The Wildcats fall to the Bears 74-49 on Tuesday, Jan. 25. K-State used a three-pointer from sophomore Ish Massoud to take an early 3-0 lead at the 19:18 mark in

the first half. After that — it was all Baylor. Over the next 13 minutes, Baylor scored 21 points on the Wildcats and used its reigning national champion defense to limit K-State offensively. It wasn’t until the 6:40 mark in the first half that Bruce Weber’s squad would reach double-digit scoring. “They’re the best offense and defense [in the Big 12],” head coach Bruce Weber said. “We didn’t do a good job of

attacking from the start.” Transition offense for Baylor off of K-State turnovers and missed shots racked up points for Baylor for the remainder of the first half. Coupled with continued good defense, K-State went into halftime trailing 21-39. The second half was much of the same. K-State found a few ways to power through and make a shot, but Baylor would just turn around and score on the oth-

my teammates involved.” Even with the off night, Pack still led the Wildcats in scoring, as junior Markquis Nowell was the only other Wildcat to reach double-figures with 11 points. Other starters – super-senior Mark Smith, Massoud and sophomore Selton Miguel – finished with six, three and two points, respectively. Miguel had the worst night of all, as he was helped off the court by teammates after suffering an ankle injury. After spending some time on the sideline, Miguel was taken to the locker room by the training staff. There is currently no timetable for Miguel’s return. “He hurt his ankle, it was really swollen,” Weber said.

“He wasn’t in the locker room when I got back, so they might have taken him to get X-rays.” Baylor had a very balanced offensive attack, with four players reaching double figures: sophomore LJ Cryer (14), juniors Johnathan Tchamwa Tchatchoua (13) and Adam Flagler (13) and freshman Kendall Brown (10). K-State turns its focus towards Ole Miss for the Big 12/SEC Challenge at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 29, traveling to Oxford, Mississippi, to take on the Rebels. K-State is 3-5 all-time in the inter-conference challenge but is riding a two-game winning streak. The game will air on ESPNU, with a recap on the Collegian after the game.

er end. The score differential hovered around the 20-point area for most of the second half before settling at a final score of 74-49. “Not much we can say — we just got our butts kicked,” Weber said. “I think we were a step behind in every play. They were on their toes: we were on our heels.” Coming off a historic day against Kansas on Saturday, Jan. 22, sophomore Nijel Pack failed to live up to his co-Big 12 Player of the Week play against Baylor. With only five points going into halftime, Pack finished with 13 on 4-12 shooting with two rebounds and one assist. “I missed my shots, missed my layups,” Pack said. “I got to be better.

Kansas State was never in the game against No. 9 Texas in Austin on Wednesday, Jan. 26. After a slow start, the Wildcats could not make a game out of it and fell 66-48. K-State got the first three shots off in the game but couldn’t get a single one to fall as they started the game 0-for-6 and had a 5-0 deficit off the bat. It took four minutes for K-State to find the bottom of the net and nearly six more to do it again. The team shot just 2-13 and turned the ball over six times to just one assist. Luckily for K-State, Texas had not started making shots yet. The Wildcats only trailed 12-4 after one quarter. A combination of press defense and strong on-ball pressure from Texas limited

K-State’s ability to feed star junior center Ayoka Lee in good spots for her to score. The second quarter was much kinder to K-State despite freshman point guard Serena Sundell spending a lot of it on the bench with an injury. K-State shot 6-9 in the second quarter but struggled to limit Texas on defense or get points off of rebounds. Texas took a 30-17 lead into the halftime locker room. K-State managed to cut the Texas lead to 11 out of the locker room, but the Longhorns always seemed to have an answer. The Wildcats actually outscored Texas in the third quarter, but not enough for it to matter. The fourth quarter saw K-State make a couple of runs but never seriously challenge Texas or meaningfully impact the momentum. K-State shot just 35 percent and was 1-6 from three-

point range in the contest. The Wildcats also committed 19 turnovers to just nine assists, resulting in a free 18 points for Texas from turnovers. A few days after setting the NCAA record for points in a game, Lee was held to 20 points and 11 rebounds. Most of those points came later in the game as K-State tried to force the ball inside more in an effort to come back. She played for 39 minutes. Sundell was the only other Wildcat in double figures, scoring 13 points and providing four assists. The No. 25 Wildcats have a chance to get back into the race for the Big 12 Championship with a home date against TCU at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 29. After that, they will head to play another top-15 team in Iowa State on the road.

PREVIEW: Men’s basketball team prepares for Big 12/SEC Challenge KELSEY BIGELOW staff writer

The Kansas State men’s basketball team (10-9, 2-6) takes a sigh of relief as it heads to Oxford, Mississippi, this weekend to take on Ole Miss (10-10, 2-5) in what will be the Wildcats’ first competition against an unranked opponent since Jan. 12. The match-up is part of the ninth annual Big 12/SEC Challenge. Despite losing the overall challenge in 2021, Big 12 teams hold an overall record of 44-35, a winning record which the Wildcats look to contribute to on Saturday. The two teams enter the game nearly indistinguishably,

statistically speaking — K-State enters the game 10-9, Ole Miss comes in at 10-10. The Wildcats come in averaging 67.5 points per game on 42.5 percent shooting from the field, while the Rebels average 67.4 points per game on 42.8 percent shooting. Both teams average 34 boards a game and own a 1.1 assist-to-turnover ratio. The largest discrepancy between the two teams on paper is the points given up, but even then, the difference is just 3.2 points per game. Ole Miss has been without its star senior Jarkel Joiner since Dec. 21, when he suffered a back injury. Joiner led the team in offense, and, despite missing eight games, is still listed as third on

the team’s overall scoring list. In the eight-game stretch since Joiner’s injury, sophomore guard Matthew Murrell has filled some void. He is leading the team during that stretch with 15.8 points per game while shooting 51.2 percent from the field. Murrell has been efficient from deep as well, hitting multiple threes in seven of those eight games, including a perfect 5-for5 performance earlier this month against Mississippi State. During that stretch, Murrell is shooting 50 percent from a distance. Another guy showing up for the Rebels as of late is the 5 foot 9 inch point guard Daeshun Ruffin. Ruffin found himself starting in the lineup because of the injury to Joiner, and he hasn’t missed a beat. In his eight starts, Ruffin has averaged 11.1 points, four assists and nearly three steals per game. The Rebels have also seen solid minutes from their big guy, senior Nysier Brooks. Brooks is averaging nearly eight rebounds and 9.6 points per game this season. He has also tallied 24 blocks. Brooks and the paint is an area the Wildcats will have to attack, as Ole Miss has proven themselves to be defensive masters from three-point range. The Rebels are 15th in Division-I for three-point defense, holding their opponents to just 29.2 percent from deep. This season Ole Miss has held their opponent to four or fewer three-pointers, nine times. In contrast, the Wildcats have only had two games this season where they hit four or fewer threes, both resulting in a loss. Electricity bills might run a little higher on Saturday for Big 12 and SEC fans, as the K-State and Ole Miss match-up is just one of ten games on the slate for the Big 12/SEC challenge. The Wildcats and the Rebels will face off for the first time since 2016. Tip-off is set for 3 p.m., with the game airing on ESPNU. A recap will be on the Collegian after the game.

Women’s basketball has a chance to ‘bounce back’ against TCU NATHAN ENSERRO asst. sports editor

The No. 25 Kansas State women’s basketball team (15-5, 5-3) got blown out on the road by No. 9 Texas Wednesday night, knocking them back just behind the Big 12 lead. However, the Wildcats have a chance to keep pace when TCU comes to visit Saturday, Jan. 29. The Wildcats are looking at the TCU game as a chance to bounce back and learn from the issues that

plagued them against Texas. “Every game, for us, you’ve got to be learning, and you’ve got to be making corrections,” head coach Jeff Mittie said. “We’ve got a young group, and every game they have to be able to take both the good and the bad and come into practice and work.” Behind head coach Raegan Pebley, the Horned Frogs are out to a 6-10 start on the year and are 2-5 in Big 12 play. They have struggled on the road this season at 1-4 but did take down

a ranked Texas A&M team. The struggling Horned Frogs are a change of pace in the middle of a four-game stretch in which K-State will play four ranked teams in six games. “We haven’t paid attention to the rankings all year. I don’t even trust those rankings,” Mittie said. “What I know about TCU is they beat A&M by 20. If you want to go by the rankings, A&M was ranked when they beat them.” TCU has the second-worst offense and second-worst de-

fense in the conference and is one of two teams with a negative scoring margin this season. Its two Big 12 wins have come by a combined two points. Lauren Heard is the Horned Frogs’ star player. The guard is sixth in the league in points per game at 16.4 and is the only TCU player averaging more than 10 points per game. Heard is a particularly good player on the defensive side of the ball. She has been All-Big 12 First Team twice and was All-Big 12 All-Defense

this past season. She also leads the league in steals per game. The Wildcats have struggled this season when teams can put pressure on the ball-handlers to deny junior center Ayoka Lee the ball. It was a key in the losses to Texas Tech and No. 9 Texas.

Wildcat tennis dominates, goes 11-1 against South Dakota, Missouri State LUKE LAZARCZYK staff writer

In its first action in the spring-dual season, the Kansas State tennis team handled business against South Dakota and Missouri State, defeating both in the doubleheader matchup on Jan. 22. The Wildcats started the day at Body First Indoor Tennis Center facing off against South Dakota, beating them 6-1 and later sweeping Missouri State 7-0. Starting the day in doubles, freshman Florentine Dekkers teamed up with senior Ioana Gheorghita at the No. 2 position. The combo won all six games, taking down Estella Jaeger and Sonia Skobkareva of South Dakota 6-0, earning the team’s first point in doubles. At the No. 1 position, senior duo Karine-Marion Job and Maria Linares turned a 2-3 deficit to a 6-3 victory against Jana Lazarevic and Habiba Aly, giving the Wildcats the point for doubles. In the third doubles match, freshman Dinara Alloyarova and senior Anna Turco faced off against Natka Kmoskova and Bea Havlickova, with the match left unfinished at 5-5. After earning a point for doubles, K-State went into singles matches, winning five out of six, starting with Job. Job, ranked 51 in the latest ITA rankings, defeated Lazarevic in straight sets 6-2, 6-2. Gheorghita joined Job and two other teammates in

winning in straight sets against South Dakota, defeating Kmoskova 6-3, 6-3. Standing at 3-0 on the day and one point away from securing the win, Linares started off her match dropping the first set 3-6 against Aly. Linares took control of the rest of her match, winning the next two sets 6-2, 6-0, giving the Wildcats the team victory. Continuing the competition against South Dakota, Dekkers and Turco went on to win their singles matches, with Dekkers defeating Sonia Skobkareva 6-1, 6-4, and Turco defeating Havlickova 6-3, 6-0. Finishing off the singles matches, senior Rosanna Maffei went up against Jaeger. After winning the first set 4-6, Maffei had to take it to a third set tiebreaker after losing the second set 7-5. In the tiebreaker, Maffei could not complete the sweep for the Wildcats, losing 10-5 to Jaeger. Continuing on from the success against South Dakota, K-State did not lose a single set in its battle against Missouri State. Building off their previous sweep, Dekkers and Gheorghita defeated Sandra Lukacova and Alyson Piskulic 6-0. Unable to finish their previous match together, Alloyarova and Turco went up against Mara Presot and Kate Miley, winning the set 6-3 and securing K-State the doubles point. Job and Linares left their match unfinished against Mary

Houston and Tiera Jarmond, ending 4-4. Heading into singles, Dekkers gave the Wildcats their first point, defeating Jarmond 6-0, 6-0. Sweeping each set, Dekkers only lost five games on the day while playing in six sets. Continuing the victory-filled day, Alloyarova faced off against Lukacova, winning in straight sets 6-0, 6-2. Working to secure the fourth point, Gheorghita went up against Miley, winning a close first set, 7-5. Gheorghita kept it up in the second set with a 6-3 win, giving K-State the victory over Missouri State. The last three matches all went to K-State in straight sets, with Job defeating Houston (6-1, 6-0), Linares defeating Piskulic (6-1, 6-1), and Turco finishing the day with a 6-4, 6-1 victory against Presot. Ending the day with an 11-1 record, the K-State tennis team seems set for the rest of the season. “We keep telling them, ‘This isn’t where we need to end, this is where our beginning is,’” head coach Jordan Smith said. “So I think they know where their base is now, and we just push it from here. We don’t need to be satisfied with where we are, but we definitely need to be appreciative of where we are and know we can get better.” Saturday’s two competitions were the first of six home matches that will include Arkansas, Iowa, Memphis and FAU from Feb. 4-12.
