Tougher road ahead

The men’s basketball team is facing a tougher portion of its schedule starting with Wisconsin Saturday.

arts & life

A growing number of Ohio State students want to show support for their No. 1-ranked men’s basketball team by jumping in the Olentangy River on “Selection Sunday.”

On Selection Sunday, the NCAA reveals which teams will enter the NCAA Tournament and how they will be seeded in their respective regions.

Nate Kinkopf, a third-year in sport and leisure studies, and his friends created an event on Facebook to spark interest for what they hope will become a new school tradition. The event, “Selection Sunday Jump,” asks students to jump in the Olentangy River on March 13. On Monday night, the Facebook event had 547 attendees.

Junior guard William Buford summed up his thoughts about the Facebook group in one word: “Wow.” Buford said he would “absolutely not” participate in the jump because “it’s too cold outside.” However, he said “if that’s what they want to do, I’ll probably be there, but I probably won’t jump in.”

Kinkopf said he likes the men’s basketball team more than the football team and thinks the hoopsters deserve some more respect.

Kinkopf’s goal is to create a student tradition similar to the annual “Mirror Lake Jump,” the plunge into the campus lake prior to when OSU plays Michigan in November.

“Selection Sunday Jump,” a Facebook event scheduled for March 13, is creating interest for a Mirror Lake-type jump into the Olentangy River on the night of March Madness selection. The No. 1 Buckeyes are likely to be among those selected for the tournament. The group currently has more than 500 people who have selected “attending” and about 500 more who said they are “maybe attending.”

“There’s a city ordinance against wading in rivers and streams. We would discourage jumping in Mirror Lake because of university resources.”

More than 16 Olympic-sized swimming pools could be ÿlled with the amount of spirituous liquor bought in Ohio last year.

In 2010, Ohioans spent nearly $754 million on liquor alone.

The state’s spirituous liquor sales exceeded 2009 revenues by $19 million, or 2.6 percent, according to a Jan. 18 Ohio Department of Commerce press release.

Consumers statewide purchased 11 million gallons of spirituous liquor last year, the release said.

Spirituous liquor is intoxicating liquor and contains more than 21 percent alcohol by volume, said Matt Mullins, ODC Division of Liquor Control spokesman.

Alcohol revenues from products like beer or wine, with less than 21 percent volume, are not included in ODC’s reported ÿgures.

Top liquor sellers in the state were Kamchatka Vodka, with about 408,000 gallons sold and Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, with about 343,000 gallons sold.

Diebler, Lighty ‘coaching’ intramural team MICHAEL PERIATT Lantern reporter periatt.1@osu.edu The Ohio State men’s basketball team might be sitting atop the national rankings, but the players aren’t the only ones enjoying perfection.

The basketball team’s managers also have an undefeated record in OSU’s intramural basketball program, most recently beating the team called White Men Can’t Jump, 51-37, on Monday. But don’t be too quick to give them all the credit.

“Coaching” is the reason for the intramural team’s success, said senior guard Jon Diebler, which comes as no surprise considering Diebler and his Buckeye teammates make up the coaching staff.

It all started last year.

“We kind of just decided one day at practice. You know, we’re always playing in the gym, so we were like, ‘We might as well throw together a team just to play,’” said Michael Flowers, a fourth-year in history, who is one of the managers playing for the intramural team.

They call their squad Team Management, and it wasn’t long before the managers tried to get the players in on the action.

“I guess it started just joking around. We said (to the players), ‘We’re at all your games; you should come to ours,’” said Chris Barrale, a manager and fourth-year in operations management. “It just kind of progressed where they’re coming in and like pretending to coach and yelling at us. You know, they get on our backs like we would get on their backs during a game. It’s all in good fun.”

Last year, 2010 Naismith College Player of the Year Evan Turner headed up the coaching staff, but his early entry into the NBA draft left a vacancy at the head coaching position.

“Evan was the head coach last year, and then (senior center) Dallas (Lauderdale) kind of took over the reins for him this season,” said Tim Daniels, a manager and third-year in operations management.

But Turner hasn’t forgotten about the team. “(Turner) sent us some shoes and shirts from Li-Ning, which sponsors him. He

campus USG to push OSU to inform students on semester switch THOMAS BRADLEY Lantern reporter bradley.321@osu.edu As departments campus-wide scramble to redesign and adjust curricula for the 2012 switch from quarters to semesters, the Undergraduate Student Government is pressuring ofÿcials to communicate those unÿnished changes to students.

Jay Johnson, associate director and assistant provost of institutional research and planning, said one new addition to improve advising on campus is the creation of the Transitional Academic Plan, or TAP. This new program is in the end stages of development and allows advisers to view, edit and add notes to any student’s advising ÿle.

“That is a new piece of functionality, built by the CIO (Chief Information Ofÿcer), that will be a new platform and tool for advisers and students,” Johnson said.

Johnson said the program will give access to all advisers university-wide. An adviser can pull up the ÿle and see what other advisers have said. The direction of the student’s academic plan is then consistent across all departments and programs.

Johnson said TAP is being created for the transition to the semester system, but he believes this will become a permanent tool for advisers.

USG President Micah Kamrass spoke to The Lantern Jan. 28 about the transition to semesters and the obligation of the university to communicate with students.

“I want to make sure that we’re giving us a good amount of time to prepare for semesters. Right now, every single major in the university is being redesigned for semesters, and that all has to be done by summer,” Kamrass said. “We’re going to

push the university to start communicating that immediately with students over the summer, or earlier.”

Johnson said nine subcommittees of the Council on Academic Affairs have been created for the quarter-to-semester transition, and one of the nine’s sole purpose is to train and assist advisers to help students make the transition to semesters.

“The next stage is communicating to the students what kind of courses they need to be taking and how it impacts sequence,” Johnson said.

“These changes are at a departmental level.”

Johnson said semester-adjusted curricula should be approved by the CAA by July 1.

Steven Fink, an associate professor of English and co-chair of the semester conversion coordinating committee, said another issue that might arise in the transition is the lack of sections for everyone attempting to complete a series.

Fink said individual departments will attempt to accommodate every student trying to complete a series of courses by opening more sections than they normally would.

“Things will go most smoothly if you can manage to schedule the sequence in its entirety before the transition,” Fink said. “It may mean that departments need to schedule more sections so that students can take all the classes to complete the sequence.”

Fink said course series that currently require three quarters of classes will most likely be transformed into two semesters. Fink said this could become an issue if a student has one or two sections of this series when the transition to semesters is made. One potential solution is the creation of bridge courses. “(They will create bridge courses) if a department sees enough need to create a particular set of bridge courses for that sequence, because a number of

Avoiding quarter-to-semester switch issues 1. Avoid being caught in the middle of a series during the quarter-to-semester switch 2. Seek help from your adviser to schedule future classes 3. An advising program is currently being developed to ensure university-wide consistency 4. Individual departments will increase the number of course sections to ensure series completion 5. Ohio State might develop a bridge program to solve series completion conflicts EMILY COLLARD / Lantern designer students will be going through at that time,” Johnson said.

Fink said any bridge course would be included in a speciÿc department’s curriculum revision plan and then approved by the CAA. He said most departments will avoid creating these types of courses, but said if someone’s course plan was so tight that breaking up a series was not an option, this would be a viable solution.

To ensure a ° awless transition, it is crucial that

students meet with advisers, and advisers meet with department chairs, Fink said.

“We want to make sure (the transition process) gets communicated to students so they can schedule appropriately next year,” Kamrass said. “I want students to be able to get as much done as they can next year so that they don’t get adversely affected by the semester transition.”

Liquor from 1A

Privatizing liquor sales is not on Kasich’s agenda Bacardi Superior Light Rum, Smirnoff Vodka and Captain Morgan Spiced Rum. Ohioans have bought more liquor year after year for more than a decade, but Mullins said ODC doesn’t investigate why.

“We have no information on the causes, but consumption was up,” Mullins said.

Sri Narayan, a fourth-year in business and economics, said he thought the spike in liquor sales might have had something to do with a struggling Ohio economy.

“Times are rough and unemployment in Ohio is still pretty high,” Narayan said. “Maybe people just turned to the bottle when times were bad.”

Under a post-Prohibition 1933 law, the Ohio Division of Liquor Control is in charge of distributing hard liquor in the state. The agency collects the state’s liquor tax and supervises more than 450 private alcohol vendors.

As reports came in about record liquor sales in January, another report came in urging Ohio to consider privatizing liquor distribution.

On Jan. 14, The Columbus Dispatch reported Gov. John Kasich received an unsolicited research study from Western Reserve Partners, an investment-banking ÿrm based in Cleveland. The study said that by selling the state’s liquor-distribution

system to a private operator, Ohio would quickly generate between $1 billion and $1.5 billion.

If Ohio moved to a privatized system, the state would lose more than $200 million in annual proÿts from liquor sales from the money that was quickly generated.

Kasich spokesman Rob Nichols told The Lantern that privatizing liquor sales is not on the governor’s agenda.

“Nothing’s happened with this,” Nichols said.

“It’s something that (Kasich) has mentioned. This was a report put together, not at our request. We get dozens of ideas like this sent to us every week.”

Money generated from the sale of spirituous liquor and the associated tax revenues help pay for programs offered by state agencies, such as Clean Ohio revitalization bonds, liquor law enforcement and alcohol treatment programs.

Brittney Rowland, a third-year in strategic communication, said she’s never bought Kamchatka, but was not surprised it took the No. 1 spot.

“I’ve never bought Kamchatka personally, but I think most of the bars use it for well drinks,” Rowland said. “So I’m sure it sells a lot.”

Some local liquor stores saw an increase in business in 2010.

Steven Grabner, owner of Europia Wine and Spirits in the Short North, said the store saw a 9 percent increase in liquor sales from 2009 to 2010.

“It was a busier year for us,” Grabner said. “I think increased tourism had something to do with it in our case.”

sent each of us a different pair of shoes and a shooting shirt,” Daniels said. “It was his idea; we didn’t even ask him. He’s just like, ‘I’m sponsoring your intramural team this year.’ I was like, ‘No argument from me.’”

Current players continue to show their support, too.

Along with Lauderdale and Diebler, freshman forward Jared Sullinger, ÿfth-year senior forward David Lighty, freshman point guard Aaron Craft and senior guard Eddie Days have been there to support the guys who are always helping them out.

“It’s awesome to go see our managers go and play intramurals,” Diebler said. “They do a lot for us.

They’re a really great group of guys … just coming in early rebounding for us and doing stuff like that. … I know we like going and watching and coaching them up.”

But the managers said there isn’t much coaching going on.

Jump from 1A

University and police overlook illegality of Mirror Lake jump not take part in the jump because of the “dirtiness” of the Olentangy.

“Anytime you expose yourself to surface water, anywhere in the U.S., you are putting yourself at risk to be exposed to bacteria and chemicals,” Bohne said. “Personally, I’ve waded upstream and it is not a bad body of water.”

Kinkopf said he wouldn’t be opposed to switching the jump to Mirror Lake to get more of a student following.

“If we get enough people, the school will have to acknowledge it,” Kinkopf said.

Although Mirror Lake night is not a universitysanctioned event, the university and police overlook the laws that are broken when thousands of students enter the water.

“There’s a city ordinance against wading in rivers and streams. We would discourage jumping in Mirror Lake because of university resources,” said Richard Morman, deputy chief of OSU Police.

“(The players) always talk about putting in a play for us, but they never do. Maybe that’s in the future,” Daniels said. “We do our own substitutions for the most part, unless a player is yelling to get somebody out, which is usually a joke.”

Lighty hollers at the guys to pick up their game.

“I get the defense together, yell out who they’re guarding and let them know they’re not playing hard enough,” Lighty said.

For the most part, the players are just there for support and fun. At halftime of their game Jan. 31, Diebler and Sullinger gave a quick shooting lesson with Sullinger throwing in some pre-shot dance moves.

It might seem to be a lot of fun, but make no mistake about it: Team Management wants to win.

So far the team has won all of its games by more than 13 points.

“We want to win every game,” Flowers said.

“That’s the reason for playing.”

Sounds like another team we know.

Team Management’s next game is against Off Constantly at 7:20 p.m. Feb. 14 at the RPAC.

However, university police handle situations with circumstantial precautions.

“Police ofÿcers have a lot of discretion on situations. If the students really wanted to do this and went about it the right way, we would get involved to ensure it was a safe event, regardless of whether it is sanctioned or not,” Morman said.

Morman said the Mirror Lake tradition is only about 6 or 8 years old and starting a new tradition would be difÿcult, but possible.

The basketball team is thankful for the support.

“We appreciate the students’ desire to show their support and hope they continue to do so during our games at the Schottenstein Center,” said Dan Wallenberg, the associate athletics director for communications, in an e-mail.

Kinkopf admitted the planning for the jump is still in its infancy.

“I haven’t broadcasted it too much, but all my closer friends want to do it and I think the basketball team should get recognized more,” Kinkopf said. “I think the longer the team is No. 1, the more popular the idea will become.”

United Nations adviser talks about importance of UN SAM OBERMYER Lantern reporter obermyer.1@osu.edu Gillian Sorensen, a senior adviser at the United Nations Foundation, spoke about the importance of the UN at the Ohio Union on Monday afternoon.

“I’m a UN person,” Sorensen said. “I have this in my blood. I spent just about my entire adult career working with and for the UN.” Sorensen served as UN assistant secretary-general for external relations from 1997 to 2003 under Secretary-General Koÿ Annan. From 1993 to 1996 she was a special adviser for public policy at the UN under Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali.

Sorensen’s speech focused on the many components that make up the UN, including peace keeping, development, disarmament, humanitarian relief for 20 million refugees a year, environmental actions and world health.

“Most Americans have no idea of the breadth and the depth of (the UN) agenda,” Sorensen said. “You can go all the way through high school and college without learning a thing about the UN.” Sorensen, a Grand Rapids, Mich., native, said she would like to see American children learn more about the UN in school and presented the Canadian system as an example.

“The Canadians have a UN component in their teaching every year from sixth grade on. It may just be one or two days, but they talk about what the UN does, how it works; they talk about Canada and the UN, and they are proud of it. I think we should be too,” Sorensen said.

Sorensen travels across America giving speeches about the UN. Sigma Iota Rho Honor Society for International Studies organized her visit to campus.

“We are lucky to have someone, such an illustrious speaker, come speak on Ohio State’s campus,” said David Agranovich, president of Sigma Iota Rho. “The international studies community deserves the opportunity to connect their students with professionals in the ÿeld. …

There are a lot of people in the audience here who want to work in the UN.” Students outside the international studies community also said they appreciated Sorensen’s speech.

“It was quite enlightening,” said Danniyal Gillian Sorensen Ahmed, a second-year in economics. “It’s a great opportunity that we get at OSU when a speaker of such magnitude comes with so much experience.”

Gillian spoke for about 30 minutes and then took questions from the audience for another 30 minutes. About 25 people attended the event, most of whom were students.

“I thought the speech was amazing; she really touched on a lot of the points that I think were of interest to people in the audience,” Agranovich said. “Her perspective on the issue is really the kind you only come across every once in awhile. She’s truly a special speaker to have on campus.”

Sorensen’s husband of 41 years, Ted Sorensen, was an adviser and speech writer for President John F. Kennedy. Ted suffered a stroke and died in October at the age of 82. “(The UN) is important because it affects our lives; it affects our lives in very direct ways,” Sorensen said. “It helps us cooperate on a lot of things that need doing, but we can’t do alone and shouldn’t do alone.”

CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 19 Today is a 7 -- Uncover more hidden treasures. You may find some closer than expected. You just need to be receptive to receive the gifts you’d otherwise miss.

Give back.

AQUARIUS Jan. 20 – Feb. 18 Today is a 7 -- Start the day with a stroll. It’s good to trust yourself, but don’t let your confidence get arrogant. Be open to ideas from friends or neighbors.

PISCES Feb. 19 – March 20 Today is a 6 -- Assign responsibilities to others. Drink plenty of fresh water; it helps you to think clearly. Use your charm to have fun as you get things handled.

sports Schedule from 8A

Buckeyes had no trouble with Purdue earlier in the season

Jeff barnett /

Lantern photographer

F ifth-year senior forward David Lighty battles for the ball during Ohio State’s 62-53 victory against Michigan on F eb. 3.

said he’s been impressed with the Buckeyes, but thinks they’re susceptible to losing a game.

“Anyone can get you anytime.

It’s never been easy, but home or away, you are in for a battle,” Beilein said. “Ohio State is really good. There is a reason why they are undefeated.”

After their matchup with the Spartans, the Buckeyes will travel to West Lafayette, Ind., to face No. 14 Purdue.

The Buckeyes dominated the Boilermakers, 87-64, during their first matchup this season, Jan. 25 in Columbus. Playing the Boilermakers on the road, however, could yield a different result, as OSU will again face the Big Ten’s leading scorer and shot blocker, Purdue senior forward JaJuan Johnson.

Johnson scored 22 points, grabbed seven rebounds and

blocked two shots in Purdue’s first matchup with the Buckeyes.

“JaJuan Johnson, I don’t know if I could say enough about him,” OSU coach Thad Matta said after the Buckeyes’ first game against Purdue. “You watch him make those shots on film and you say, ‘He’ll never do that against us,’ and sure enough, he did.”

With the difficult challenges that lie ahead in OSU’s next three games, Matta is aware that on any given night his team’s winning streak could come to an end.

“These guys are smart enough to know that if we don’t come to play, if we’re not tuned in to what we need to do, we’ll lose,” Matta said. “It’s probably as simple as that.”

Adversity from 8A

Players are

struggling with possibility team won’t make the NCAA tournament The pile of losses is even more surprising considering the Buckeyes were ranked in The Associated Press’ Top 25 for 130 straight weeks — a streak that ended last week. Over the past six seasons, OSU racked up 170 wins, sixth most in the country over that span.

“It was frustrating — very,” senior center Jantel Lavender said after Sunday’s loss.

Missing the tournament would be disappointing for such an established program and for Foster, who has taken the Buckeyes to the NCAA Tournament each of his eight seasons in Columbus. His teams made the Sweet 16 in 2005 and 2009.

But the Buckeyes have played the country’s thirdtoughest schedule and, according to Realtimerpi.com, rank No. 18 in the nation in RPI.

“It’s not different than anything they’re going to face in life. If you’re going to roll over and quit, you’re not going to have a very good life,” Foster said. “This is one of the easiest things in life to fight, quite frankly.”

The numbers say OSU is better than its record indicates.

After Sunday’s loss to Northwestern, the team averages 72.6 points per game, and has posted an 11-2 record when it has scored more than 70 points.

And, only Connecticut has shot at least 50 percent from the field against the Buckeyes.

After an injury to starting forward Sarah Schulze, Foster started freshman center Ashley Adams.

The 6-foot-4 center provides another defensive presence down low for OSU. But even that hasn’t been enough.

“I think that we don’t have … a mentality about defense enough,” Lavender said. “Teams come at us, and we’re not responding in the right way.”

Big game’s commercial appeal VANESSA SPATES Lantern reporter spates.3@osu.edu

Best 2011 Super Bowl commercials

For some, the Super Bowl commercials are just as good, if not better than the game itself. Here are The Lantern’s top ÿve commercials from this year’s game.

“The World Is Yours,” by Motorhead “S/T II: The Cosmic Birth and Journey of Shinju TNT,” by Akron/Family “Long Surrender,” by Over the Rhine “Black Ribbons,” by Shooter Jennings

Movies

Life as We Know It Colored Girls I Spit on Your Grave You Again

Video games

1. Volkswagen: Darth Vader Kid (second quarter) The commercial for the new Passat featured a little boy striding through his house, fully dressed as the “Stars Wars” villain, Darth Vader, with John Williams’ “Imperial March” playing in the background. Little Vader tries using “The Force” on objects in his house, including the washer and dryer, the dog and a doll sitting on a bed. His frustration with his powers not working is visible, so he gives up. His dad comes home in a silver Passat and Little Vader runs to it, not to greet his father, but to test his powers on the car. He throws his hands out and all of a sudden, the car starts up and he jumps back. His dad used the car remote from the house to start the car. Little Vader is stunned.

2. Chrysler: Eminem in Motor City (third quarter) The commercial for the Chrysler 200 is not only a promo for the car, but for the city of Detroit as well. A voice-over speaks about the strength of the city (“What does a city that’s been to hell and back know about the ÿner things?”). The shots of the city show the best and the worst parts of Detroit. The Chrysler 200 appears on the screen, with Detroit native Eminem behind the wheel. He stops at a theater and walks in. A choir is singing on stage and he walks up to them, turns around and looks at the camera. He says, “This is the Motor City, and this is what we do.”

3. Doritos: Finger Licking (first quarter) This was the second Doritos commercial of the night and it kept up with the general silly attitude. One guy is eating his Doritos and he ÿnishes the bag. His co-worker is sitting awkwardly close to the ÿrst and the co-worker tells him that he “left the best part.” The other guy is confused and looks in his bag. The co-worker takes the opportunity to start sucking on the ÿrst’s ÿngers to get the cheese off. “Mmmm cheese. I love Doritos,” he says. There’s a moment when they stare at each other and it cuts away to another man, wiping his cheesy ÿngers on his pants. The ÿnger-licking guy rips the other’s pants off and basically snorts the cheese. The commercial ends with him, clutching the pants, saying, “Doritos!”

4. Chevy Camaro: Red Head (fourth quarter) The commercial opens with two guys talking about making a commercial for the Camaro. They are obviously poking fun at the car commercial “formula” that usually consists of many obstacles the car has to get through. It starts off with the Camaro racing through the desert. One shot shows many mirrors standing up, with the car driving between them. There’s a “hot redhead” in the driver’s seat, making her way through a city, and “dodging bales of hay.” One guy stops and points out the ridiculousness of bales of hay in the city. They add a car chase with a helicopter and “bad guys” and the car ° ies off the roof.

There’s a brief pause and she lands cleanly in front of a school because she’s a teacher, which is labeled as the surprise ending.

5. NFL.com: TV favorites (third quarter) This commercial featured football clips from TV shows, past and present. The clips, which were all from real episodes, showed characters decked out in their teams’ colors, anticipating the Super Bowl.

After the montage, a screen pops up with the words: “Best. Fans. Ever.”

Some of the shows featured are “Beverly Hills, 90210,” “Seinfeld,” “The Ofÿce,” “Full House,” “Family Guy,” “The Brady Bunch,” “Family Matters,” “How I Met Your Mother,” “Glee,” “Friends,” “Modern Family” and “The Simpsons.” The last clip shown is from “South Park,” with Cartman running to catch up to his friends on a horse, yelling, “Hurry!

We can’t miss the commercials.”

As for the game itself...

For the fourth straight year, the Super Bowl bested itself in terms of viewership.

According to the Nielsen Company, preliminary totals suggest that the game had an average of 111 million viewers at any given time, more than the previous mark set by last year’s game with 106.5 million. The total viewership, or number of people that tuned into the game at any point, is estimated to be 162.9 million.

The success carried over for “Glee,” the program that aired immediately after the game. The episode, which featured Michael Jackson-and-Katy Perry-themed acts, brought in 26.8 million viewers, according to Nielsen, a record for the show. Despite the big numbers, “Glee” still scored 25 percent less viewers than CBS’ “Undercover Boss” did last year.

Columbus offers many food choices to its residents and visitors. Restaurant blogger and owner of Columbus Food Adventures Bethia Woolf wants people to try them all.

Columbus Food Adventures is a set of tours through the city designed to give participants a sampling of Columbus cuisine.

The tours take participants to both renowned and underrated restaurants the city has to offer. Each stop along the tour offers samples of the restaurants’ specialties. Woolf uses her knowledge of the area’s eateries to provide a collection of what she says are some of the tastiest spots around Columbus.

“It gives people a chance to explore,” Woolf said. “Instead of going to a restaurant for two hours with the same people, you get to sample a lot of different food at a lot of different places.”

Some tours are public, giving participants a chance to meet new people, but patrons can arrange private tours as well. Tours start at $45 per person.

The 10 to 15 people on a tour have access to the owners and kitchen staff, who will answer questions and talk about their passion for food. Woolf tries to choose businesses that focus on using local-grown ingredients.

“We have a lot of really great food here and people who are really passionate about it,” Woolf said. “It’s a chance to show off Columbus.”

A food enthusiast, Woolf had been blogging about her food endeavors around Columbus for more than two years before she started Columbus Food Adventures. She said after a friend went on a similar food tour in New York City, the gears started turning.

Each tour explores areas and interests in Columbus. The “All Dessert Tour” ($55) travels by van to ÿve pastry and ice cream shops, from Sugardaddy’s downtown to Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams’ new location in Clintonville. The tour also stops at a vegan bakery, Pattycake.

During the “Short North Tour” ($45), participants stroll through the arts district, stopping at six of the area’s hot spots, including North Market and Rigsby’s Kitchen.

The “Alt Eats Tour” ($60) showcases ethnic cuisines, from Vietnamese to Somali, in the Cleveland Ave. area.

Mexican food lovers might enjoy “The Taco Truck Tour” ($55), which takes participants to street food vendors throughout the city during the summer months. Taco trucks are a prime interest of Woolf, who has a separate website dedicated to them.

Creating an open and fun atmosphere that is full of variety is an important element to Woolf.

“It gives people a different sense of Columbus,” Woolf said, “getting people off campus to places they wouldn’t normally have gone.”

With this focus on exposing another side of the city, Columbus Food Adventures is not just for tourists. Jennifer Evans-Cowley, an associate professor of city and regional planning at Ohio State, chose the “Alt Eats Tour” because she enjoys trying unique foods and visiting new restaurants, she said.

“Having lived in Columbus for a decade, I thought I had seen a lot,” she said. “(Woolf) opened my eyes to some new places.”

Though Woolf has guided nearly 100 tours, she still ÿnds herself learning new things, trying new foods and meeting new people.

“Experiencing a city through food is a great way to get to know a city,” Woolf said.

Next 3 games pose no easy task for undefeated Buckeyes ben aXeLrOD Senior Lantern reporter axelrod.17@osu.edu The Ohio State men’s basketball team has managed to remain unbeaten through its first 24 games this season. But maintaining an unblemished record through their remaining seven games might prove to be a more difficult task for the Buckeyes.

OSU picked up a road win at Minnesota — a place where no current Buckeye, except fifth-year senior forward David Lighty, had won in his career — on Sunday. Now the team will travel to a place where no Buckeye, including Lighty, has won: Madison, Wis. Following their matchup with No. 13-ranked Wisconsin, the Buckeyes will return to Columbus for their lone matchup of the season with Michigan State. After starting off as the No. 2 team in the

nation, the Spartans are in the midst of a disappointing season, having fallen out of both The Associated Press’ Top 25 and ESPN/USA Today Coaches’ polls.

Still, MSU, which appeared in the past two Final Fours, remains a threat to the Buckeyes’ undefeated record.

The Spartans tout an experienced roster, led by the 2009 Big Ten Player of the Year Kalin Lucas, who leads the team in scoring with 15.8 points per game. MSU also has players with size — 6-foot-7, 230-pound Draymond Green and 6-foot-9, 270-pound Derrick Nix — who could present matchup issues for OSU freshman forward Jared Sullinger, named Monday the conference’s Freshman Player of the Week for the 11th time this season.

Michigan coach John Beilein, who has faced both the Spartans and the Buckeyes this season,

Buckeyes struggling to enter tournament picture CHrIS bIDerMan Senior Lantern reporter biderman.1@osu.edu After being ranked as high as No. 6 in the country early in December, the Ohio State women’s basketball team surprisingly now must fight for its right to play in the NCAA Tournament, which takes college basketball’s top 64 teams.

Seven upsets will do that to a top-10 team, with the latest being to Northwestern on Sunday at home. Those defeats came to unranked Syracuse, Duquesne, Michigan twice, Penn State and Northwestern twice.

“We’re not a team that fights through adversity.

That’s how you win games. You got to claw it,” OSU coach Jim Foster said Sunday after his team’s 74-68 loss to Northwestern.

Inversely, the Buckeyes (13-9, 4-6 Big Ten) are 3-2 against ranked teams, losing to then-No. 1 Connecticut on Dec. 19 and No. 22 Iowa on Jan. 8.

And the team’s last six games of the season won’t be any easier. OSU plays No. 5 Purdue (16-8, 6-5 Big Ten) on Thursday at Nationwide Arena.

Then, three of its last five games are away: Minnesota (11-12, 3-7 Big Ten) on Sunday, Purdue on Feb. 20 and No. 11 Michigan State (20-3, 8-2) on Feb. 24.

The winner of the Big Ten Tournament receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, but OSU came into Sunday’s in seventh place in the conference.

The nation’s leading scorer maintained his stranglehold on the No. 1 spot in Player of the Year races, scoring 26 and 29 points, respectively, in BYU wins against Wyoming and UNLV. In the Cougars’ win against UNLV, Fredette also showed the ability to make plays without being the scorer, assisting on seven BYU scores — tying his thirdhighest assist output on the season. This week, Fredette and the Cougars face Air Force on the road, before returning home to face Utah.

UConn’s leading scorer had his worst game of the season last week, scoring a seasonlow eight points on 3-of-14 shooting in the Huskies’ loss to Syracuse. Walker followed up his subpar performance with a 19-point output in UConn’s come-from-behind win against Seton Hall on Saturday.

This week, Walker and the Huskies will do battle in a couple of Big East road games, first traveling to play St. John’s on Thursday before taking on Providence on Sunday.

OSU’s freshman forward proved his worth to the Buckeyes last week, scoring 19 points, pulling down 15 rebounds and playing all 40 minutes of the Buckeyes’ win against Michigan. Then he scored 18 points and recorded 13 rebounds in OSU’s road victory against then-No. 20 Minnesota.

The Buckeyes will rely on Sullinger to help beat the No. 14 Badgers in Madison, Wis., something no OSU team has accomplished since the 1997-98 season.

In the storied history of the Atlantic Coast Conference, no player has ever finished the season as the conference’s leader in both points and assists. With averages of 21 points per game and 5.6 assists per game, Duke’s Smith is on pace to do just that.

Last week, Smith continued his high level of play for No. 5 Duke, turning in an all-around performance against North Carolina State, scoring 20 points, and adding in six rebounds and seven assists.

After returning to school for his sophomore season, Hamilton has emerged as the leading scorer and rebounder for No. 3 Texas — nearly doubling his statistics in each category from a year ago.

Last week, Hamilton scored 20 points against Texas A&M before scoring 16 points and grabbing nine rebounds against Texas Tech.

This week, the Longhorns will hit the road to face rival Oklahoma on Wednesday before hosting Baylor on Saturday.
