Ohio State is keeping a watchful eye on what its athletes do on social media.

In an exclusive interview with The Lantern on March 12, athletic director Gene Smith said OSU monitors its student-athletes on social networks like Twitter and Facebook.

“We track, so we see you as an athlete saying something on Twitter, or you’ve got something on your Facebook page that’s inappropriate or derogatory, we’ll come to you,” Smith said. “We’ll pull you in. They know we track, and so we do not have a policy to say you can’t do Facebook or Twitter or any of those other things.”

But an error in judgement could cost the athletes.

“If you see somebody with a Colt .45 and $500 bills in their hand at a Christmas party, then you got to go and pull them in,” Smith said.

While Smith appeared to mean that as an example of an especially severe case, keeping tabs on about 1,100 student-athletes can be an arduous task.

The Process To accomplish such a feat, OSU uses the help of a company called Jump Forward, which produce recruiting and compliance tools for college athletic departments, to monitor everything.

Diana Sabau, OSU associate athletics director of external relations, said Jump Forward’s services, though, are based on a retainer agreement and

OSU monitors student-athletes with hired firm -OSU monitors about 1,100 student-athletes’ Twitter and Facebook accounts.

-Jump Forward, a firm OSU hired, montiors all student-athletes by tracking words from a long list.

that the athletic department does not “actively” monitor its student-athletes.

Rather, she said, Jump Forward serves as a “safeguard” with the option to track athletes or not.

Additionally, Sabau said she did not know the value of the deal between Jump Forward and OSU. An OSU athletic department spokesman did not return requests for comment.

While Jump Forward could not be reached by The Lantern for comment, Smith explained how the company serves their needs.

“We have a firm,” Smith said. “We

have a long list of words that they track and we also have people that monitor repeat offenders, so they actually follow people.”

It’s seemingly a line of work that, while relatively young, is booming as the social media galaxy continues to expand.

Similar to Jump Forward, Fieldhouse Media (which provides services to about 30 schools including Arkansas, Wichita State, and Coastal Carolina), works to educate and monitor student-athletes.

Its founder, Kevin DeShazo,

explained how the process of tracking typically works.

“Our (system) is organized into categories: profanity, sexual, racial, violence, drugs and alcohol. So lets say they send out something that’s racially offensive, (an administrator) is going to get an email that says, ‘Hey, so and so tweeted this.’ And you can bring in the student-athlete and say, ‘Look, this is type of image that you’re building,’” he said.

It’s a way, DeShazo said, “to

Basements were the most common meeting place and small talk focused on everything from NCAA tournament brackets to law school aspirations.

Ohio State Undergraduate Student Government presidents have enjoyed some face time on campus in recent years with their counterpart in the White House. In one case, President Barack Obama remembered the face, if not the name. “(OSU) had more presidential candidate visits than about 30 states last year,” said OSU President E. Gordon Gee in a March 25 meeting with The Lantern. “I told one of the Secret Service guys one time I was just going to give him a cot in my office and you could just stay here.”

President Barack Obama has visited campus three times in a year.

He kicked off his re-election campaign at the Schottenstein Center on May 5, and he is scheduled to give the Spring Commencement speech exactly one year later in Ohio Stadium. Between that time, he visited campus twice — once in August to grab a Reuben for lunch at Sloopy’s Diner and once to give a campaign speech on the Oval in October.

Getting the president to speak at commencement is something Gee gives himself credit for.

“This is a very funny story,” Gee told The Lantern. “I joked with him. I said, ‘Well Mr. President, you’re going to lose Ohio.’ And he said, ‘Why?’ And I said, ‘Because you gave the commencement speech to the University of Michigan (in 2010) and I want you to give it here.’ So that’s how that happened.

“He’s a man of his word, so that was great,” Gee said.

But of the six times Obama has come to OSU, Gee said that was one of the only interactions the two presidents had.

Ohio State is footing the bill so students can take a free May Session course, but the university will be cashing checks for fees.

Nancy Wygle, OSU Office of Enrollment Services spokeswoman, explained the free credit applies only to tuition fees, including instructional, general and nonresident fees, and will fluctuate from student to student.

University Registrar Brad Myers said “other enrollment-related fees will be assessed as they would be for any student

enrolled in the summer session,” in an email.

Wygle said these other fees might include Central Ohio Transit Authority and activity fees. Fees also vary between departments, meaning the rate will be slightly different for every student enrolled in the May session.

However, some OSU students said they don’t mind the small fee in relation to what they will be saving in the long run.

Kyle Hoyer, a second-year in health sciences, said the free class was his deciding factor.

“Once I heard that you could enroll in

campus USG: $500 international fee should only fund OSU payers sally xia and luke stirton Lantern reporters xia.82@osu.edu and stirton.2@osu.edu The Undergraduate Student Government made a resolution suggesting full transparency regarding the $500 per-semester fee for international students.

A Wednesday town hall meeting focusing on the controversy surrounding the international student fee was held at the Ohio Union, followed by a Senate meeting during which the resolution for change was made.

The fee is currently only charged to freshman international students, but eventually all undergraduates will have to pay. Fifty-five percent of the fee will go into academic and service enhancements including Student Life, and 20 percent will fund information sharing. Twenty-five percent of the fee is going to study abroad scholarships, which are available to all students, not just those who pay the fee. Some students don’t think that portion of the fee is fair.

About 40 people attended the town hall meeting, including representatives from the Office of International Affairs, faculty and domestic and international students.

USG President Taylor Stepp, a third-year in

public affairs, and former USG Vice President Kevin Arndt, a fourth-year in political science and public affairs, led the town hall meeting.

William Brustein, vice provost of International Affairs, and Kelechi Kalu, associate provost of OIA, answered questions from the handful of students who expressed concerns about the use and the transparency of the fee.

Brustein said the fee is being directed into programs and services that will be beneficial to domestic and international students alike.

“The lion’s share of the fee will be used to provide services and programs for international students, from the moment they accept admittance to the university to the day that they’re back in their home country, or here,” Brustein said. “We want to enhance those services to make sure international students’ experiences are positive ones.”

However, some students, including members of the USG Senate, aren’t so sure.

“The OIA spokesman was incredibly articulate about where the money will go and made this very long speech about how it will go towards Ohio State students becoming more comfortable with other cultures,” said Erik Leiden, a USG member and a second-year in political science, in the USG Senate meeting. “Personally, I don’t think it’s the

OSU student says man attacked him with wrench in house melinda cassidy Lantern reporter cassidy.126@osu.edu Arrests were down at campus-area block parties WoodFest and ChittShow this year, but police were still called to Woodruff Avenue that weekend after a 51-year-old male allegedly entered the apartment of an Ohio State student and assaulted him with a wrench.

Ryan Connolly, a second-year in marketing and East Woodruff Avenue resident, was with friends at about 5 p.m. on April 6 when the man walked into his apartment.

“We had no idea who he was or what he was doing,” Connolly said.

“We were all just like, ‘Who are you?’”

He said the man walked up to another resident, asked if he lived there and then slapped him in the face. Connolly and his four roommates were able to remove the man from the apartment without immediate further incident.

“We threw him outside, and he was out there kicking the door for a while, but he finally walked away,” Connolly said.

Zach Kruse, Connolly’s roommate and a second-year in biology,

said no one locked the door after the encounter because the man didn’t appear to be a legitimate threat.

“We were playing music — not loud, but that’s what must have drawn him,” he said.

Connolly said people were coming and going from the apartment, which also led the residents to leave the door unlocked.

However, the man returned to the apartment at about 9:30 p.m., according to the Columbus Division of Police report, wielding a wrench.

Connolly said he didn’t notice the man had returned until one of the women present alerted him.

“I look up, and he’s standing in the doorway with a wrench,” he said.

“He was like, ‘Let’s do this,’ and smashed the lamp on the table, and I’m just thinking, ‘I have to protect these girls,’ so I jumped up and that’s when he smacked me across the face with the wrench.”

The woman named as a witness on the police report did not immediately return request for comment.

Kruse said he was in the apartment when the man re-entered and returned to the living room when another resident told him the man was back.

“It was a blur, it happened so fast,” Kruse said. “I ran out there …

There were like five guys on him, my friend Ryan was bleeding from the

chin, and he completely shattered our lamp. After the whole thing, I just thought, ‘Come on, man … you come back with a wrench?’”

Kruse, who was not named on the report as a witness, said he and his roommates disarmed and restrained the man until police arrived.

None of the residents know the man, but the police report stated he is a resident of the nearby Ohio Stater apartments, located at 2060 N. High St. Gary Banks, a leasing consultant for Ohio Stater housing and a fourth-year in finance, said the man is a resident there and is known to cause trouble from time to time.

“Typically he’s a good resident. He’s actually very docile and easygoing,” Banks said.

Connolly, who sustained minor injuries according to the police report, said he plans to press charges, which are listed on the report as criminal trespass and assault.

A Columbus Police official said Wednesday that the investigation into the incident is pending.

The man could not be reached for comment, and The Lantern does not name individuals who haven’t been charged with crimes.

continually educate student-athletes about what they’re putting online because it’s so easy just to type out 140 characters, hit send and go about your day.”

Compared to tracking companies like Jump Forward, though, DeShazo said Fieldhouse Media only monitors — and has access to — public Twitter accounts.

“Most student-athletes — and people in general — are surprised when they go back and scroll through Twitter feed, like, ‘Oh my gosh, I don’t remember tweeting that.’ Because it’s just become second nature,” he said.

When an athlete tweets something that could be flagged, the tweet registers into the company’s system, which administrators have access to day and night, DeShazo said.

“They can have it open on a browser window on their iPhone, iPad, Android. So when they log in, they’ll see big picture numbers. They first log in and they see totals for every category, they see a big bar chart, so it’s like, ‘OK, profanity, you’ve had 800 hits.’ But then they can click on an individual … and say, ‘OK this individual has hit 18 words in the past 24 hours, 25 in the last week, 100 in the last month,’” he said.

“And then it breaks down how many they’ve hit per category. So you say, ‘OK, this individual, we might need to have a little more detailed conversation with him about things they’re putting on Twitter.’”

But contrary to what might be popular belief, DeShazo said discipline for missteps on social media typically doesn’t warrant drastic punishment.

“I think people always freak out thinking that it always leads to suspensions, very rarely does that happen. A majority of the time, it just leads to a conversation. And we’re seeing results of that because the programs that are doing both — education and monitoring — are seeing a 41 percent drop daily in the number of hits that their department’s getting.”

Education The foundation to tracking for both DeShazo and Smith is education.

“I don’t think you should restrict, I think you need to educate. If you do it the right way, (social media is) a great tool, it’s a great tool. That’s our biggest challenge,” Smith said.

The biggest problem, he said, is typically with firstyear students.

“You’re taking the values from the environment that you grew up in and you’re trying to assimilate those into a new set of values and new behaviors and that takes a little time, you know? I don’t care where you’re from as a first-year student, that takes a little time,” Smith said.

“And we’re not the best at teaching you the rules in

Why It’s Done Perhaps the most relevant and memorable example of such bad press is when OSU then-freshman quarterback Cardale Jones tweeted about his discontent with the state of the convergence of student and athlete on Oct. 5, a day before the Buckeyes’ primetime showdown against Nebraska at Ohio Stadium.

“Why should we have to go to class if we came here to play FOOTBALL, we ain’t come to play SCHOOL, classes are pointless,” Jones said from his now-defunct Twitter account, @Cordale10.

Jones was held out of OSU’s 63-38 win and DeShazo said it’s a “perfect example” of making a “completely unnecessary” headline.

“That was not a big deal, like breaking news, a college kid hates class. Let’s make this a big deal. I went to school on an academic scholarship — I hated class.

This is not news. But that’s how the media is; that’s the narrative that they’re pushing — that students-athletes are immature on social media,” he said.

“That was a dumb tweet, yes. Should he have said it? No. It wasn’t inappropriate or offensive, but it was unnecessary. But it made headlines. And one blog, a well-known blog (“Awful Announcing”) called it the ‘Worst Tweet of 2012.’”

DeShazo said he tells that story to various-student athletes to show them what kind of social media pitfalls they could face.

“This is how people are covering student-athletes on social media, this is the narrative they’re trying to push.

You have to be mindful. It wasn’t offensive, it wasn’t inappropriate. The biggest thing that I see in studentathletes is not so much the offensive and inappropriate stuff, it’s tweets like that that are just unnecessary, just noisy. Stuff that’s not adding any value. They just get bored and tweet every day of their lives.”

Smith said he remains confident in the steps OSU has taken to prevent that kind of behavior.

“I feel good that we continue to educate, continue to monitor and attack as soon as you see something,” Smith said. “Get on it right away, don’t delay.”

Fee from 1A a course that was three credit hours without paying tuition, I figured I should take advantage of the situation, regardless of the fees,” he said. “Since we are being offered the opportunity to take a course during May Session without paying tuition, I do believe that the additional fee is reasonable because it’s probably less than the price you would typically pay for a course offered during the summer.”

According to a tuition schedule from Fall Semester 2012, undergraduate students at the Columbus campus pay more than $1,100 in tuition for three credit hours.

Hoyer will be taking a human physiology course during May Session.

Alex Cardenas, a first-year in pre-nursing, is enrolled in a nursing assistant class for May. She said money had a lot to do with her decision to enroll in May Session.

“Usually these nursing assistant classes are about $400 to $500 to take from private companies.

So even with that $80 fee, that’s definitely a whole lot better than $500 from some private company,” Cardenas said.

The first-year also said she got on board with May Session because it gives her an opportunity to do clinicals at OSU’s Wexner Medical Center.

We talk about orientation — you don’t learn everything in a short orientation at the Ohio State University or neither do our athletes about the athletic department.”

Education, though, isn’t just limited to athletes — it applies to athletics administrators, too.

“A lot of my job has really been educating administrators because they all were fearful of it because they didn’t understand, which is why they’re banning it or they’re doing some invasive monitoring because they don’t understand, all they see is negative headlines,” DeShazo said.

Shaoyu Guo, a second-year in economics who attended the town hall meeting, agreed but wasn’t sure how things could change.

“We just want them to know our views of this issue, but to change it, I think, is still far away,” Guo said. “Our message is that: does what we get equal what we pay? From what it seems right now, it is not.”

An estimated $1 million has already been collected from first-year international students, with $554,500 collected this semester, according to a Monday Lantern article.

Students are able to take a 3-credit hour course for free during May Session.

After four years, the total revenue generated from the international student fee will reach about $6 million per year.

In response to concerns from students, Stepp and members of USG unanimously voted to ask for 100 percent of international student fee to be re-invested in international students.

“I am going to sign the resolution and it will be the opinion of all undergraduate students that we should see the 100 percent allocation of the fee (go) to international students,“ Stepp said. “We also are calling for more transparency in relation to the fee, where it’s going, what services international students can benefit and we certainly hope that this will go a long way for international students.”

campus Interactions from 1A “Many people believe that the presidential elections are determined in Ohio, which is true,” Gee said. “We have so many of these presidential candidates and my view is the fact that I need to keep above that.

“Mitt Romney was a friend of mine and I didn’t see him, and when the president comes on campus, I don’t see him if he comes as a candidate.”

When USG President Taylor Stepp had his run in with Obama, some of Stepp’s constituents held him to the same standards.

“There were some people that I had spoke(n) with … and they had said, ‘Hey, you’re USG president, you shouldn’t be political,’” Stepp said. “I don’t agree with them … if the president of the United States comes, you should certainly go and represent the student body.”

When Obama came last May to kick off his campaign, Stepp was among a small group waiting in the basement of the Schott to greet him and the first lady.

“His motorcade pulled in and his staff was already there … and I just see the president and Michelle Obama like striding toward me with these ridiculous cars and the motorcade behind them,” Stepp said. “I don’t get nervous at all, (but when) I saw him striding toward me, I’m like, ‘This is so unreal.’”

Stepp said Barack Obama asked him about the university and his aspirations, and Michelle Obama gave him a hug. The whole interaction lasted about 10 minutes.

Gee said he would meet with Barack Obama if he came to campus not as a candidate but on an official capacity, which is what will happen on May 5. But Gee, who has been conducting commencements for 33 years, said his job during graduation will remain the same.

“Obviously when you’re dealing with the security issues, I think some of that does change,” Gee said.

“But in terms of my own role, I’m kind of like an orchestra conductor, I just want to make certain that the symphony plays well.”

About 12,000 are expected to graduate this spring, making this the largest commencement ever, and with heightened security and stadium renovations, a ticket limit was imposed on graduates. As of Wednesday, graduates are allowed seven tickets each.

Nick Messenger, a fourth-year in economics and 2011-2012 USG president, will hear Barack Obama speak May 5 among a sea of graduates, but once upon a time, he personally welcomed the president to campus too.

Obama visited campus on March 22, 2012, to give a speech about his energy policies and visit OSU’s Center for Automotive Research.

According to a Lantern article, Gee was not

at the speech because he was out of state, but Messenger was there to greet him.

“We gave him a basketball signed by the OSU team and we kind of talked a little basketball … I remember ‘cause I gave him a hard time about that actually,” Messenger said. “He said, ‘Oh, do you have any advice on getting re-elected? I’m gonna have to try that again real soon,’ and I said, ‘I don’t have any advice on getting re-elected, but I do have some advice on your bracket,’ because he had picked North Carolina over us (to win the NCAA March Madness tournament).

“I didn’t know how he was gonna take it, whether he would think that was funny or whether he thought it would be irritating, but he laughed pretty hard.”

Messenger said meeting and greeting Obama was certainly an honor, but the fact that the president of the U.S. came to OSU to tour certain facilities spoke highly of OSU’s status as an institution, especially in the way of alternative energy was a bigger deal.

Some could argue the same could be said about certain dining locations on campus. In August, Obama came back to Columbus for a speech at Capital University, but he squeezed in a surprise visit to Sloopy’s Diner in the Ohio Union. It was there that Obama and Micah Kamrass, USG president for the 2010-2011 school year, were reunited.

In October 2010, Obama made his inaugural visit to campus for a rally on the Oval, and that time, Kamrass was there to greet him — in the basement of Hopkins Hall.

“We also presented him and the first lady with OSU football jerseys with ‘Obama’ on the back,” Kamrass said. “He was No. 44 for the 44th president and we gave the first lady No. 1 for the first lady, and they got a kick out of that.”

Kamrass said Gee was out of town during that visit, too. Kamrass said he and Obama discussed his plans to go to law school and Obama’s time as a law student and professor.

Kamrass is now in his second year at OSU’s Moritz College of Law, and when Obama swung into Sloopy’s for lunch in August, Kamrass happened to be in the right place in the Union at the right time.

“He kind of stopped and looked at me and said, ‘I’ve met you before,’” Kamrass said. “He was like, ‘Didn’t you graduate already?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m here at law school now.’”

Almost two years and dozens of campaign stops later, Obama appeared to remember Kamrass.

“He at least remembered the face,” Kamrass said. “I was impressed with the millions of people he’s met over the years, just remembering my face was pretty remarkable.”

Each graduate to receive up to 7 tickets for graduation Ally Marotti Editor-in-chief marotti.5@osu.edu As Spring Commencement grows nearer, some of those graduating May 5 have been holding their breaths.

Weeks after graduating students were asked to take a survey regarding Spring Commencement ticket needs, Ohio State announced it would be allow seven tickets for each graduate.

Nick Messenger, a graduating fourth-year in economics and former Undergraduate Student Government president, said he had engaged in conversation with university officials to get the ticket allotment raised.

“A lot of people had booked hotels and paid for things … so it was kind of a bummer a couple months out to think we were only gonna get four,” Messenger said. “Hopefully seven will accommodate everyone.”

OSU seems to have settled on seven after a controversy ensued following the February announcement that President Barack Obama would be speaking at commencement and graduating students would be limited to four tickets for their friends and family.

The four-ticket limit was extended to six tickets per graduating student on Feb. 26.

According to an email sent to graduating students at about noon Wednesday, additional tickets could still become available.

Students must order their tickets through Ticketmaster starting at 4 p.m. Friday, according to the Wednesday email. They can be ordered until Monday at 5 p.m., and “must be printed using the TicketFast print-at-home feature.”

The email included instructions for how to receive a passcode needed to order the tickets. Graduating students do not need a ticket themselves, nor do guests under age 2.

The ceremony is scheduled for May 5 at Ohio Stadium.

In addition to increased security from the president’s visit, university officials said the ticket limit was in part due to renovations in the ‘Shoe.

Several weeks ago, soon-to-be-graduates were asked to fill out an online survey that would indicate how many tickets they would prefer.

“Should some tickets become available after the

Students sit in Ohio Stadium during Spring Commencement 2011. initial ordering period, we will certainly make people aware of that,” said Gayle Saunders, assistant vice president of media and public relations. “(But first we) gotta get a good sense on what people need.”

OSU President E. Gordon Gee said in an interview with The Lantern March 25 that ticketing at the entrance was unavoidable.

“No one goes to anything, a public setting, with the president of the United States without having had tickets,” Gee said. “It’s just what the Secret Service demands.”

About 12,000 students are set to graduate this spring, making this the largest commencement in OSU history.

Ryan Cunningham, a fourth-year in finance who will graduate in May, already knows how his tickets will be divided.

“Five to immediate family and two to friends,” he said. “My dad works for the university so he gets to go with the faculty, so from that standpoint I’m a little better off than most people.”

But still, Cunningham said four tickets would not have been enough.

After the original four-ticket limit was announced, a commencement ticket black market almost immediately started forming online, with students attempting to sell their tickets for up to about $1,000 each, according to a Feb. 25 Lantern article.

Messenger said he thinks this won’t be a problem with the new limit.

“I think that seven is a high enough number that there won’t be a secondary market,” Messenger said.

OSU seeks leaders in front 7 Eric Seger Lantern reporter seger.25@osu.edu The Ohio State football team capped off its spring practice session with its annual Spring Game Saturday in Cincinnati, but the coaches and players believe there is still substantial work to be done.

OSU’s assistant coaches met with the media Wednesday to discuss the improvements that need to be made, which players have stuck out during the spring and how they hope the leadership of last year’s seniors will be replaced.

Carlos Hyde and Rod Smith: separating themselves from the rest Senior running back Carlos Hyde ran for 970 yards in his first season as a full-time starter in Meyer’s spread offense. His 16 rushing touchdowns led the team, and according to running backs coach Stan Drayton, Hyde and junior Rod Smith are going to be the main contributors for the position this fall.

“I do believe that Carlos and Rod have separated themselves from both (sophomore Bri’onte Dunn and redshirt freshman Warren Ball),” Drayton said. “I feel like we have depth that can bring productivity to our offense which is something that is an unbelievable luxury to have. Carlos is clearly the starter, and I think Rod has separated himself from those guys right now.”

Drayton went on to say Hyde has grown into a “phenomenal leader.”

“It was critical that he establish himself with a young group of guys,” Drayton said. “He was like a coach out there. It was really good to see.”

OSU women’s basketball coach Kevin McGuff addresses the media during a press conference on April 17 at the Schottenstein Center.

After 11 seasons under the direction of Jim Foster, the Ohio State women’s basketball program officially has a new coach.

Kevin McGuff, who left his head coaching position at the University of Washington after two seasons, will take his place as the eighth head coach in OSU program history.

“I’m incredibly excited, I’m incredibly humbled to be the coach at the greatest university in the world,” McGuff said during a press conference at the Schottenstein Center Wednesday. “I believe that we can have a program that consistently competes at the top of women’s basketball anywhere in the nation, certainly in the Big Ten. McGuff will be paid $850,000 per year, as well as a $700,000 signing bonus and $500,000 in retention payments if he keeps the position through the 2020-21 season.

OSU will provide a $1.75 million buyout since McGuff had extended his contract with Washington on March 26 through 2020.

If the Buckeyes win the Big Ten championship, McGuff will receive a $20,000 bonus and a year added to his agreement. Should the team also win

the Big Ten tournament, it will mean an additional $40,000 and an extra year.

In terms of a postseason, McGuff will make $40,000 for advancing to the NCAA tournament and $20,000 for making it to the Elite Eight with an extra year added to his contract. If the team makes it to the Final Four, McGuff stands to make an additional $20,000, and by winning the national championship, he’ll earn $100,000.

Should he then be named NCAA Coach of the Year as well as earning one of the above accomplishments, McGuff will receive a $20,000 bonus.

McGuff also stands to receive $50,000 if the annual team cumulative grade point average is 3.0; $100,000 if its 3.3; and $150,000 if its 3.5 by May 30 each year.

McGuff said he’s excited about the challenges the position will bring.

“We will be a really, really tough-minded defensive team, we will be one of the best-rebounding teams in the country, and we will be a team that plays really fast and really aggressively on offense,” McGuff said.

Prior to coaching at Washington, where he compiled a 41-26 record over two seasons and took the Huskies to the quarterfinals and second round of the Women’s National Invitation Tournament,

For men’s lacrosse, ‘FOGO’ role an ‘area of expertise’ Daniel Rogers Lantern reporter rogers.746@osu.edu Football has the kicker, baseball the relief pitcher and soccer the defensive midfielder.

They are specialty players who have a focus, a certain set of skills that set them apart from the rest. They aren’t always the flashiest players, but what they bring to the team, if only for a play or two, can be the difference between a win and a loss.

For lacrosse, that position is known as the faceoff get-off, or more colloquially, the FOGO. What is a FOGO? “Basically the game of facing off is a player for a team comes out to the middle of the field (the X) and is trying to gain possession of the ball for his team,” said Trey Wilkes, senior midfielder and primary FOGO for the Buckeyes. “In theory, if a faceoff guy can go out and win the ball for his team every time, it’s kind of like ‘make it, take it’ in basketball.”

Assistant coach Jamison Koesterer was a faceoff player when he was at Johns Hopkins and said he sees the position continue to develop into a specialty area.

“It’s kind of transformed into an area of expertise. Guys have really started to focus and buckle down and create a specialty position if you will. I think you’re starting to see more and more guys become comfortable not just being

faceoff get-off, but stay and play a little offense,” Koesterer said. “Obviously if you have a dynamic player that can face off with a good stick, that’s a solid athlete that can play defense, it allows you to do more from a coaching perspective.”

Koesterer said in lacrosse, the more opportunities there are for a team to be on offense, the more likely it is to earn the victory.

“Having possession of the ball in a game like lacrosse where the ball is moving up and down the field is extremely important,” Wilkes said.

“There is a lot of technique, there’s a finesse side to facing off, but there’s also a physical side, and it’s just having a balance of that aggression and balance at the same time.”

Since the players aren’t a regular part of the offensive or defensive rotations, a FOGO has to prepare differently than others on the team, Wilkes said.

“I try to focus more on myself individually and try not to worry as much about my opponent. I feel like throughout the week if I can work on the things that I do really well, I can kind of leave the game in my hands,” Wilkes said.

Another FOGO for the Buckeyes, junior defender Darius Bowling, doesn’t fit the bill of the typical faceoff player. Though Bowling still takes his turn attempting to win his team the ball, he also plays on the defensive side of the ball as a long stick. But his defensive focus shows facing off at the X doesn’t mean a player can’t also be a standout in other positions.

“For me it’s just kind of making it a scrum

OSU senior midfielder Trey Wilkes (right) faces off with an opponent during a game against Denver on March 9 at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. OSU lost, 10-9. (ground ball). I would think that I’m pretty good at ground balls, so if I could make it a scrum, I would have a pretty good chance at getting it,” Bowling said. “So during the week I try to make sure that I’m in a good stance. That’s the most important thing for me is my stance.”

Unlike their counterparts, such as attackers who score handfuls of goals or goalies who rack up saves, FOGOs fly under the radar. Their names are rarely in game recaps, despite their vital contributions to their team’s success.

“They don’t get a lot of accolades. When you find them in the postgame report, it’s usually when they’re 70 percent or better, when they’re really dominating,” Koesterer said. “But when we come across a great faceoff player and we neutralize him, make it a 50-50 battle, even though we don’t get the headlines, it’s a win in our book.”

Though they might not be household names or team MVPs, there is no doubting what a FOGO means to his lacrosse team.

sports Leaders from 5A For the front seven, leadership is the key With former starters John Simon and Johnathan Hankins gone, linebackers coach and co-defensive coordinator Luke Fickell said the biggest thing that the defense has lost is leadership.

“I think you’re always concerned about the leadership and the mentality and the way those guys are handling everything,” Fickell said. “You worry about how they gel together, how the leadership guys step up, how they make the other guys around them better.”

Fickell said he was happy to see a number of guys “really maturing” this spring though, including junior middle linebacker Curtis Grant, who Fickell sees in the starting lineup with junior Ryan Shazier and sophomore Joshua Perry.

Defensive line coach Mike Vrabel said the line made “good progress” during the 14 spring practices. The coaching staff and the players, though, are “not putting a lot of stock” in the 11 sacks the defense had during the Spring Game.

Vrabel said the defensive line was more productive during scrimmages earlier in the spring than during the game because “you saw more consistent plays in the run game, runs that we’re going to see. Some of those guys in that first group didn’t see a whole bunch of runs (during the Spring Game).”

Vrabel said that juniors Joel Hale and Michael Bennett in particular have made significant progress.

“I think Joel Hale improved. I think we saw some things from him that we hadn’t seen from him last year,” Vrabel said. “Michael Bennett had a good spring. He was consistent, he was there every day. He was a leader for us and gave us a physical presence inside.”

Confidence in the right tackle position With four returning starters on the offensive line, the only position OSU has to fill is right tackle. Converted tight end Reid Fragel started all 12 games at the position in 2012, helping anchor a unit that helped OSU go undefeated.

With Fragel gone, redshirt sophomore Chase Farris and sophomore Taylor Decker are looking to be next in line.

Co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Ed Warinner said the coaching staff is confident someone will step up.

“We’ll be just fine (at right tackle) when it’s all said and done,” Warinner said. “You’re comparing whoever the right tackle is to the four other guys who have started before.”

Warinner said he expects the player who earns the starting job to be able to play at a high level.

“The bar’s high for the other positions (on the offensive line) so that guy has to work to catch up to those other positions,” Warinner said. “Not just earn a starting job, but they got to play at a high level like those other guys have.”

Hinton: The tight ends’ work ethic is what sets them apart Meyer told ESPN Wednesday that junior Jeff Heuerman and redshirt sophomore Nick Vannett are the best tight ends he’s ever coached.

Tight ends and fullbacks coach Tim Hinton said hard work is what’s setting the two apart.

“The one thing is that they have great work ethic,” Hinton said. “The other thing that really makes a difference in our case is they’re very complete tight ends. They really have the ability to come back and line up and block you off the ball on a point of attack play. They got the ability to block you in space, they have the ability to catch a short ball in traffic and as the spring went on, they showed the ability to get down the field and

OSU won, 52-22. catch some long balls.” Hinton said that being able to do all of those things will help the team because they will not have to come off the field regardless of the offensive set.

“Being very versatile guys and never having to take them off the field for certain X’s and O’s is a viable part of being a tight end for us,” Hinton said.

Kerry Coombs: Drew Basil’s development at punter “good but not great” Senior kicker Drew Basil made eight of 11 field goals last season, and with the loss of punter Ben Buchanan, he will be called upon again in 2013.

Cornerbacks coach and special teams coordinator Kerry Coombs said he thinks Basil’s progress as a punter is “good but not great,” but said Basil’s dedication will help him improve.

“I think that’s a tremendous transition to throw on a kid,” Coombs

said. “I think Drew Basil has a great work ethic. I think he has all of the physical tools to get the job done, and I think he will because I think it’s important to him.”

Coombs also said redshirt junior cornerback Bradley Roby could have played Saturday in Cincinnati, but that he was kept out to take away any chance that he would injure his shoulder further. Redshirt senior offensive lineman Jack Mewhort was kept out of the Spring Game for similar reasons.

“He could play right now, but it’s just like coach (Meyer) said about Jack Mewhort, why take a chance? What is the gain there?”

Coombs said. “Bradley’s demonstrated he’s a physical football player, he’s a very physical football player. I think Bradley’s going to be 100 percent.”

sports Buckeye softball batters Ball State, 8-0 Jon Shields Lantern reporter shields.143@osu.edu The Ohio State softball team (27-14, 6-6) made quick work of the visiting Ball State Cardinals, blasting them, 8-0, in five innings at Buckeye Field Wednesday.

First-year OSU coach Kelly Kovach Schoenly stressed the importance of playing together as a team in practice Tuesday, and the Buckeyes responded with a near-complete offensive and defensive performance. Solid fielding, timely hitting and effective pitching — the norm when sophomore Alex DiDomenico is on the rubber — aided the Buckeye victory.

Freshman left fielder Cammi Prantl was the offensive catalyst for OSU, driving in four runs on two hits while DiDomenico yielded two hits and no runs in her sixth complete game shutout of the year.

“I really focused on driving the gaps and hitting the middle of the ball,” Prantl said.

“Coach is really pushing me to hit more with runners on the bases, and that’s what I was focusing on.”

The OSU offense started off slow, but with the second turn of the lineup in

the third inning, they began firing on all cylinders.

Prantl started the offensive fireworks by ripping a one out, two RBI double into the left-center gap.

Prantl scored later in the inning from third after a Ball State error on an OSU steal attempt at second afforded her time to advance home, bringing the Buckeyes’ lead to 3-0.

In the fourth, back-to-back singles chased Ball State freshman pitcher Kelsey Schifferdecker, who suffered her third loss of the season, out of the game. After Schifferdecker’s exit, OSU plated three more runs off an RBI sacrifice fly from sophomore center fielder Taylor Watkins and another two RBI hit from Prantl, making the score 6-0.

The fifth inning saw the game end on sophomore catcher Shelby Pickett’s walk off a two-run homer. College softball rules state the game is over if one team is down by eight or more runs through five innings of play.

“I don’t really know what was going on in my head,” Pickett said. “Everyone told me (Ball State redshirt junior pitcher Audra Sanders) was a little quicker, but she was not as quick as she looked, so I

was just waiting on one I could hit.” Both sophomore shortstop Maddy McIntyre and senior third baseman Megan Coletta said in practice Tuesday OSU had to limit the power hitting of Ball State if they wanted to win, and DiDomenico did just that, running her record to 12-6 with the win.

Her teammates said it gives them confidence when they know DiDomenico is pitching.

“Alex is always lights out when she starts out really well,” Prantl said. “So it’s easier for us as batters when she starts out well.”

DiDomenico’s catcher knows better than anyone how run support can help her ace.

“I can always count on (DiDomenico), especially catching her,” Pickett said. “She makes it easy on me and I think she brings a lot of confidence to the team. She goes so hard, so it makes us go hard trying to hit and score for her.”

OSU is set to travel to Madison, Wisc., for a three-game weekend series with the Badgers, beginning Friday at 7 p.m.

The OSU men’s lacrosse team prepares for a game against Hobart at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. OSU won, 10-6.

Ohio State men’s lacrosse looks to lock up a top-four finish in the Eastern College Athletic Conference and a berth in the conference playoffs this weekend against Air Force.

OSU (8-3, 3-2) is currently tied for third in the ECAC with Fairfield.

About two weeks ago, the OSU men’s lacrosse team was reeling. The Buckeyes were coming off a 9-4 loss to Loyola (Md.) to cap off a month that saw them lose three of six games and drop to 1-2 in ECAC play. With dreams of making it to the postseason slowly slipping into fantasy, OSU needed to turn things around.

But two games later, the Buckeyes are coming off back-to-back conference wins against Hobart and Michigan as they head to Colorado to seal a top-four finish and a playoff spot.

Senior attacker Nick Liddil said it was about getting back to basics for OSU. “We just had to focus on us and do the things that we know how to do and play within ourselves,” Liddil said. “That’s what got us out of our rough patch.”

A big issue for the Buckeyes during March was an inconsistent offense. Only scoring four times each during losses against Notre Dame and Loyola, OSU was struggling.

In recent weeks, though, Logan Schuss has helped turn the team around. The senior attacker’s five goals led the Buckeyes to a 17-8 victory against Michigan Saturday.

OSU coach Nick Myers said Schuss getting

back in the swing of things was a contributing factor in OSU’s turnaround. “Offensively, we hit a bit of a wall I think,” Myers said. “After that Loyola game, we hit the rest button a little bit and got back to basics, focused on fundamentals, got a little faster. We’re sharing the ball and it’s been great to see Logan get back in a rhythm.”

Senior midfielder Dominique Alexander said he knows, though, the trip to the playoffs can be hard.

“The juniors and seniors, we’ve been up there before, and we know this is no cakewalk,” Alexander said. “Our coaches explained to us today that there are still two spots left in our conference tournament and about five teams that are competing for that.”

The Buckeyes are scheduled to take on Air Force in United States Air Force Academy, Colo., Saturday at 2 p.m.

sports 12-0 season carries more weight than Elite 8 sports Columnist

Matthew Mithoefer mithoefer.3@osu.edu

Few would argue that any college in the nation can brag as much as Ohio State when it comes to the combined accomplishments of its football and men’s basketball programs this year.

The claim, however, has its own internal debate.

Which team had the more successful season?

Was it Urban Meyer going 12-0 in his first season at the helm of OSU, or Thad Matta’s men coming within one victory of a return trip to the Final Four?

Well, it depends who you ask.

If the streets around campus could talk, they would tell you the football team. Lane Avenue was dubbed “12-0 Row” in December, but I have yet to hear plans of renaming Neil Avenue as “Elite Eight Boulevard.”

If you look to the final Associated Press polls of the seasons, you’ll get a different answer. Deshaun Thomas and company came in at No. 10, while Braxton Miller’s bunch sat unranked thanks to their postseason ban.

It’s a topic well worth discussion, but I’ve been having trouble picking a side.

After all, there are many factors to consider here.

You can weigh the historical rarity of each group’s achievement. OSU has seen 10 undefeated seasons on the gridiron, and only one of those years (2002) saw as many wins as the 12 last fall’s squad compiled.

Sophomore forward LaQuinton Ross’ game-winning shot against Arizona carried the men’s basketball program to

its 14th Elite Eight. In Chicago just two weeks prior, the team ran to its fourth Big Ten Tournament Championship (the event began in 1998).

You might adjust for the competition OSU saw in the respective sports. The Big Ten provided a notably weaker test for Meyer than it did for Matta, who led his team to a second-place finish in a conference many considered to be the best in the nation.

The difficulty of the debate rests mostly in the bowl ban. Without it, we have a definitive answer. With it, we’re stuck in a limbo thanks to Wichita State’s one shining moment. If OSU had danced in Atlanta, my answer would easily be the basketball team. If they had bowed out in the Sweet 16, my answer would be the football team.

At the end of the day, for me, it’s the football team that had the more successful campaign. After all, they were perfect — the sixth season in program history with no ties or losses.

As great as the basketball team became in late February into March, at no point could “perfect” be used to describe its year. If we’re handing the imaginary “more successful season” title to basketball, then football never had a shot.

Think about it, did you celebrate, scream, cry and, yes, drink, more when Ross’ shot went through the net or when we beat Michigan to cement 12-0 in the record books? Matta and company had an amazing season, but you can’t top perfection without a national title.

It seems the teams will also each present a new case for being the best next year.

Meyer’s second season will begin with the old “championship or bust” moniker for many fans, while the emergence of Ross alongside four returning starters is reason enough to expect big things in the Schottenstein Center.

But until Aug. 31 rolls around, when the football team is set to take the field against Buffalo at Ohio Stadium, the debate will go continue among fans.

But it’s the offseason, what else are we supposed to do?

respectively, McGuff spent nine seasons at the helm at Xavier University.

At Xavier, he had a 214-73 record, setting the school record for the most wins in program history and reaching the postseason every season. In his last two seasons there, Xavier went undefeated, 14-0, in A-10 conference play.

He also led the Musketeers to four A-10 tournament championships and six NCAA tournaments.

McGuff also held an assistant coach position at Miami University (Ohio) for three years until taking a

job as an assistant coach at Notre Dame in 1996. He remained there for six years before becoming head coach at Xavier.

Former OSU coach Jim Foster, who had a 279-82 record, was fired on March 19.

He will be receiving $350,000 in installment payments from June 30 to April 30, 2014. Under his contract, which was terminated early, Foster is required to make “reasonable and diligent efforts” to find a similar employment position. If he instead chooses to retire, his retirement benefits from the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System would off-set OSU’s $350,000 payment.

With a marketing degree from Ohio State’s Fisher College of Business and four scholar-athlete awards under his belt, you might say Devin McCarthy of the OSU men’s tennis team has a bright future in the corporate world, if not for one problem — he isn’t finished with tennis.

McCarthy, the only redshirt senior on this year’s OSU squad, plans to take his skills to the professional level after No. 5 Buckeyes (26-2, 9-0) finish their 2013 season. McCarthy graduated from OSU in December.

“I think I’m going to, in June, go to Mexico for a couple weeks to play some (professional) tournaments.

I’m not ready to give up tennis … I don’t really want to sit behind a desk, so I’m going to go try (professional tennis) out and see what happens,” McCarthy said.

McCarthy, though, didn’t always think he had the skills to go pro. When he was recruited out of his Cincinnati-area high school by OSU coach Ty Tucker and brought onto the team as a freshman, McCarthy didn’t see that level of potential in his own play. “(Tucker) took a chance on me. I wasn’t that great in juniors, (I) took some time off, my ranking wasn’t that great, and (Tucker) brought me in and spent some time with me in the summer when I was a guy that wasn’t in the lineup, and he spent a lot of time with me,” McCarthy said.

However, what McCarthy failed to see in himself, Tucker saw immediately.

“I thought (he had) very good potential … (he was)

a guy that should have been highly recruited, wasn’t as highly recruited as he should have been. To us he was a certain ‘can’t miss’ player,” Tucker said. “We were very fortunate to get him.”

McCarthy is the fourth child in his family to play Big Ten tennis. His two older brothers, Ryan and Mike, played for Indiana, and his other brother, Andrew, played at Northwestern.

McCarthy said many of the improvements made in his tennis game came during his true freshman year when he did not see action for the Buckeyes.

“Honestly, I don’t think that if I came (to OSU) early, I don’t think I would be playing. I don’t think I would have ever made it in the lineup,” McCarthy said. “I came here in the winter of 2009, and was the worst on the team, second worst on the team. (I) stayed that summer … and that’s when I made the biggest jump and probably got two levels better.”

Over the course of the next four years, his extra time spent training and developing began to pay on the court. “(McCarthy) finally earned a spot on the team and never gave it up. He’s been a horse for us — I feel one of the two or three most underrated players in college tennis,” Tucker said.

During McCarthy’s OSU career, the Buckeyes have won five Big Ten regular-season championships, four Big Ten tournament championships and have never lost a match at home.

McCarthy is ranked No. 91 nationally.

Off the court, McCarthy has established himself as a four-time OSU scholar-athlete,

‘Barcade’ to open in downtown Columbus ZACH HOLMES Lantern reporter holmes.615@osu.edu Columbus residents will soon be able to have a night on the town with the likes of Donkey Kong and Ms. Pac-Man. 16-Bit Bar+Arcade, downtown’s first “barcade,” is set to open this July on Fourth Street.

Troy Allen, the bar’s owner, said 16-Bit Bar+Arcade is described as being an upscale, retro arcade-bar designed to bring the fun of video games to the downtown nightlife. Classic games such as “Street Fighter II Turbo”, “Mortal Kombat” and “NBA Jam” will be available for free play for all customers.

Allen discovered his first arcade-bar while visiting a friend in Chicago. Allen said he thought Columbus would be an ideal spot for an arcade-bar because of the city’s growing tech community.

“From a business standpoint, it is a wide demographic,” Allen said. “You have your people in their 30s and early 40s that grew up on the games.

But Columbus, really being a younger tech town, can appreciate that older technology as well.”

16-Bit Bar+Arcade will feature about 55 games that will be in a rotating lineup on the bar floor, Allen said, and added that he plans to continue to explore new ideas for games and encourages any suggestions from customers.

“It is going to be a constantly evolving lineup.

We want people to request games,” Allen said.

“We are going to listen to everybody and listen to what they want and then evolve as we go.”

upcoming Thursday

16-Bit Bar+Arcade will be located at 254 S. Fourth St., and Allen said he is excited about the location.

“I have been able to watch downtown kind of come back and start to thrive again. I wanted to be going into a space that was either a revitalization or up-and-coming,” Allen said. “With our concept and the demographic and the crowd we are going after, Fourth Street is the natural setting.”

There will be small tables between each of the games for people to set down drinks, phones and purses, Allen said. He added that the techfriendly bar will also have many outlets and USB ports to charge cellphones and other electronic devices.

16-Bit Bar+Arcade will not have a kitchen to serve food, but Allen said guests are welcome to bring in food from the surrounding restaurants and food trucks. He mentioned that Dirty Franks Hot Dog Palace is next door.

Some students had mixed reactions to the idea of the bar.

Trevor Barth, a first-year in health sciences, said the retro-style video games could potentially draw a large audience.

“It would probably attract a lot of young college kids because they want to go play the games and even some older guys that don’t get to see those games anymore,” Barth said.

“They are childhood games. It would definitely be interesting.”

Brad Lewis, a first-year in biomedical engineering, said he thinks the idea for the barcade is interesting, but was uncertain that a bar like 16-Bit Bar+Arcade would be popular.

“There is nothing like that around here right now, so it is hard to know how well it would do because it’s so different,” Lewis said.

16-Bit Bar+Arcade is set to plug in and open up on July 5.

In an age where indie rock and unabridged hip-hop thrives, Andrew Varner works full time to continue the catchy, sonically attractive nature of pop music.

“I like pop. I think pop has everything you want in it,” Varner said. “I grew up listening to everything. My mom and dad had very eclectic tastes.”

The musical career of Varner has been a dynamic one — he has moved between Nashville, Tenn., and Columbus twice during his life, ultimately settling in the southern state just earlier this year.

Varner was born and raised in Defiance, Ohio, and moved to Columbus to attend school at Columbus State Community College. Varner did not graduate from Columbus State, however, because in 2005 he left school and moved to Nashville for the first time to pursue a music career. He performed regularly at a Big Bang Dueling Piano Bar there for about three years, as well as making time to record his first release, the “Make Believe” EP in 2009, Varner said.

The release of Varner’s EP coincidentally coincided with the Big Bang’s decision to open up shop in Columbus. With that, Varner moved back to his home state to work as the entertainment director at the newly established location and perform shows in promotion of his EP, Varner said.

Columbus’ Big Bang Dueling Piano Bar is located at 401 N. Front St. It was also at the Columbus Big Bang that Varner met guitarist Matty Monk, who performs regularly with Varner during live shows. Monk and

Varner took to campus’ own Scarlet & Grey Cafe, located at 2203 N. High St., on a weekly basis to perform, Varner said.

“I had some of the best times in the world doing that,” Varner said. It was in performing these shows that Varner first began to develop a following.

Like Varner, Monk resides in Nashville, where he moved two years ago. He said Nashville is the place to be for musicians aspiring to make a career out of performing.

“If you want to do the musician thing, you’ve got to go where it’s going down,” Monk said.

“You can land big tours there faster. You really can’t do that in Columbus, Ohio. You can if your band blows up, but to find an artist that tours nationally is next to impossible unless you’re already an established musician.”

Along with Monk, Varner’s band includes Kasey Todd on drums and Varner’s younger brother, Nate Varner, on bass guitar. The younger Varner also lives in Nashville, having made his move to the city official as of two weeks ago, Nate Varner said.

Nate Varner, like his brother, is a full-time musician. The brothers diverged in their musical paths early in their careers, but Nate Varner said they “tried to do a band thing together.” Andrew Varner’s new album, “Shades of Red,” released April 9, and its supporting tour presented that opportunity.

“His original music was always something I wanted to be a part of,” Nate Varner said. “There were always songs I liked. I always wanted to play with him.”

Twenty-seven-year-old Andrew Varner said he wrote some of the songs on “Shades of Red” when he was 17 years old. This can be attributed to his patient style of songwriting.

“If songs take years to write, I let that happen,

I guess. It’s really frustrating, but I’ve been at both ends; I’ve tried to push a song and release it before it really had time to fully develop, and I’ve let songs cook and stew for years before they’re ready to go,” Andrew Varner said. “I don’t mean that I got lazy with it, I mean it’s just the inspiration isn’t there. I know that there’s something that’s going to happen that will allow me to finish the song.”

“Shades of Red,” like Andrew Varner’s EP, was recorded in about four months’ time in Nashville.

This is what he dedicated his time to when he moved to the city for the second time early this year.

However, unlike the EP, Andrew Varner’s fulllength album was not released on a label. He said the label he was signed to did little to support him, which affected his decision to do everything himself on the new album.

“The label that I signed to pretty much didn’t do anything they promised,” Andrew Varner said.

“I had to fend for myself: book a lot of shows on my own, market my own record and kind of play the role (of the label).”

Complications with a label originated with his EP release. Andrew Varner said he does not plan to sign with a label again anytime soon.

Although Andrew Varner has moved around quite a bit, he said he makes it a point to show his love for Columbus. Andrew Varner refers to the last song on “Shades of Red,” titled “Scarlet Town,” as his love letter to Columbus.

In a similar vein, Andrew Varner said he hopes that the accessibility of his brand of pop music helps entertain listeners at live concerts as well as understand his music on the record.

“I hope my music is accessible for anybody,” Varner said. “As long as I’m saying what I mean, and as long as I’m trying to say something that is intriguing, then I’m OK with it.”

[ spotlight ] COMMENTARY

Columbus to host fun., Relient K, Cute Is What We Aim For BREANNA SOROKA Lantern reporter soroka.15@osu.edu Some students are going to leave Columbus for the summer, but the city will continue to thrive throughout the break. Each week, I’ll highlight an aspect of entertainment scheduled to take place in Columbus this summer.

Columbus is going to be a major hotspot for music in the coming months and has many concerts scheduled to prove it. Ranging from high-profile artists to bands that haven’t been heard from for some time, there is something for almost everyone this summer. Whether you plan on staying around town or want to take a road trip back just to catch one of these shows, read on to see which performances I’m most excited for.

Relient K: May 14 As if this headlining act isn’t awesome enough on its own, there are also scheduled appearances by Hellogoodbye, William Beckett (of The Academy Is…) and Mike Mains & the Branches.

That’s a whole lot of music for a single ticket, and all of these artists are well worth the investment.

All of the artists involved have one thing in common: the genre of indie rock. This is a great concert option if you’re looking for a show to attend simply to listen to the music — no moshing required.

This concert is slated for May 14 at Newport Music Hall. Tickets for the event are $17 in advance and $20 the day of the show.

Fun. is slated to perform July 14 at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion.

Fun.: July 14 Once again, the headlining band of this concert is only made better by the act appearing with it, and in this case that is Tegan and Sara.

Whereas the previous shows mentioned will likely have mellow environments, this concert is sure to be a fiery burst of energy for its entire duration.

Because of the popularity of both of these artists, these tickets are likely to sell like hotcakes. The audiences of each don’t necessarily overlap, either, meaning some people might order tickets just to see one performance or the other. I recommend you order them as soon as you can to solidify your spot at what I’m certain is going to be an insanely great show.

This concert is scheduled for July 14 at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion. Tickets for the event are $35.

Cute Is What We Aim For: June 16 While the opener, Dangerous Summer, isn’t as exciting as the previous concert listed, I consider it just as worthy a show to attend. Cute Is What We Aim For brings me back to my middle school days anytime I listen to it, and I imagine seeing the band in concert would do the same for anyone else who was a wannabe scene kid back in the day, too.

The band has only released two studio albums during its entire history, so it’s likely many of the songs it plays will be those that made the band popular in the first place. So even if you haven’t listened to Cute Is What We Aim For in years, you won’t be totally left out in terms of knowing the set list.

This show is slated for June 16 at The Basement. Tickets for the event are $13 in advance and $15 the day of the show.

Beer Pong Madness to shoot 88 teams into competition MADELINE ROTH Senior Lantern reporter roth.302@osu.edu This spring, 88 teams from four regions will convene in Columbus to compete in one of college students’ most beloved sports: beer pong.

The fifth Pong Madness, a tournament created by two Ohio State students featuring the popular drinking game, is slated to take place at Big Bar & Grill on May 2 and is expected to feature more teams, more upsets and more celebratory beer showers than ever.

Danny Khourie, a fourth-year in political science and economics, and Sean Fisher, a fourth-year in accounting, got the idea for Pong Madness after witnessing a similar event during a visit to Xavier University in Cincinnati their freshman year.

“It seems like all the other schools in Ohio hate OSU students because we think we’re better than everybody else. So we thought, ‘We have to bring this to Ohio State because we’ll make it even bigger,’” Khourie said. “It was just to get a one-up on our friends, and it started off as a joke but then snowballed into something way bigger.”

Khourie and Fisher hosted the first Pong Madness tournament at their off-campus house in May 2011, and since then, it has increased in size and popularity. For the fourth tournament, which took place last fall, they increased the number of teams to 72 from 64, and searched for a larger venue to house the event.

Bryan Kovach, a supervisor at Big Bar & Grill, said he quick to hop on board after Fisher and Khourie approached him about sponsoring the event in the fall.

“It seemed like it would be a good fit and bring a lot of people to the bar,” Kovach said. “It went really well in the fall — there was a big crowd and we had people watching the final game from our VIP section — so it’s just a good event all around.”

For a $20 fee ($40 for each team), each player receives free beer for the duration of the tournament, a T-shirt and food and liquor specials at Big Bar & Grill. The bar also clears out its main dance floor and sets up four tables, one for each “region” on the bracket. Eventually, the setup is pared down to one main table for the final three rounds of play.

“The first two rounds take forever — last year they were about three to three-and-a-half hours,” Khourie said. “But once you get to the Elite Eight, everyone’s in their groove and it starts speeding up faster.”

Though past year’s tournaments have started in the evening, this year’s is scheduled to kick off at 2 p.m. to accommodate the record number of

When Khourie and Fisher made the online sign-up form available at 6 p.m. on April 4, all 72 spots filled up in just 1 minute and 46 seconds.

By 10:30 p.m., 97 teams had signed up.

“We couldn’t believe it,” Khourie said. “Sean and I just sat looking at the computer in shock as the posts kept coming in and the numbers started getting bigger.”

Khourie and Fisher subsequently expanded the bracket to 88 teams and have placed 13 teams on a waiting list in case any teams do not show up.

Though Khourie and Fisher use a seeding system to determine the match-ups, — which is based on the total amount of wins both partners have, thus favoring past Pong Madness players — as with any sport, upsets are common. And, in the case of Pong Madness, Khourie said they are fiercely celebrated.

“We have a microphone at Big Bar and we announce ‘upset alerts’ on it,” Khourie said. “Last year we used it when the two-time defending champs were getting upset by a team of girls, and people were just going crazy. People definitely get most excited when the girls teams do really well.”

This year, 17 all-girl teams are signed up to

participate, which is more than any past tournament.

“The farther the girls go, the more people are watching,” said Eve Horbol, a fourth-year in marketing who has played in all four past tournaments.

“Seeing the guys’ faces when they lose against girls is so funny — they have to walk away, and they might throw something.”

This year, Khourie and Fisher created a website with a comprehensive list of statistics, which includes every player’s record and each bracket from all four past tournaments.

Khourie said this has only made the anticipation greater.

“I think this year’s going to be really heated.

On the Twitter handle, people have already started trash-talking each other, so it’s been blowing up, and I think it’s going to be the biggest and best one yet because everyone’s so hyped up,” Khourie said.

Pat Foley, a December 2012 OSU graduate who has played in the last three tournaments and was a runner-up in November’s tournament, said he is excited to return to campus for this year’s Pong Madness.

“I hesitated when I heard it was on a Thursday because of work, but it only comes twice a year

and you can’t miss out on it. It’s the only party I look forward to,” Foley said. “There’s always great people, great music, a little competition … so I’m definitely coming back to take the title this year.”

This year’s tournament is also set to feature sponsorships from companies like En-deyo, which will supply T-shirts, and Moocho, a company that provides discounts for students.

There will also be cash prizes. The first place prize is $1,000, second place is $400 and third and fourth place winners are awarded with $100 and $50 bar tabs at Big Bar & Grill, respectively.

Though Fisher plans to graduate this spring and Khourie plans to graduate at the end of the summer, both said they hope the legacy of Pong Madness will live on at OSU, and maybe even other schools.

“We’re still in the early stages of planning, but we’d love to travel to places like (University of) Wisconsin, Penn State, Purdue (University) and (University of) Michigan, set up tournaments there, and eventually blow it up to make a Big Ten Championship,” Khourie said. “Our goal is to make Columbus a mecca of college beer pong.”

COMMENTARY

Bieber Fever cooled by reckless behavior ALLISON SLONAKER Senior Lantern reporter slonaker.15@osu.edu I want to make one thing clear: I am a huge fan of Justin Bieber. I think he is pretty amazing.

With that being said, a lot of Bieber’s recent behavior has really cooled off my Bieber Fever. Although the older Bieber is nicer to look at, the younger, more under control Bieber was a lot easier to like.

Even though I was one of the many happy girls when Bieber and his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez called it quits, I think this is what sparked his downward spiral of behavior.

Bieber and Gomez ended their relationship in November. In early January, photos were released showing Bieber holding what appeared to be weed at a party.

Shortly after the photos were released, he appeared on “Saturday Night Live� and apologized for the incident in a sketch. In the skit, he refers to himself by saying, “I also heard he got busted for smoking weed and he’s really sorry about it and people make mistakes and he’s never gonna do it again.�

On top of that, he was also photographed shirtless on March 1 partying

at 6 a.m. for his birthday, just three days before he was two hours late to a concert in London. I love the Biebs, but two hours is an extremely ridiculous wait time, and I would have been out of there.

He has been fighting with paparazzi, posting ridiculous tweets and photos on Instagram and just dressing like a total fool — he showed up to meet Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper wearing overalls, a white T-shirt, a silver chain and a backwards cap. On top of that, his new haircut makes him look like he is trying to pull off the same horrid look as Miley Cyrus.

Lastly, Bieber visited the Anne Frank House, the Amsterdam museum dedicated to the young Holocaust victim, and before he left he signed the guest book like many other visitors. Unlike other visitors, Bieber disrespected the museum and Frank by writing, “Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a Belieber.�

Really, Biebs? Do you honestly think this little girl would’ve been sitting there listening to “Boyfriend� while writing in her diary? I think not.

So all that being said with complete and utter love, I’m kind of annoyed with my Bieber. I’m over the out-of-control behavior, horrible outfits, disrespect and new haircut. Get it together, Biebs.

As much as it hurts my heart to say, he needs to either get back with Selena or just find himself a nice girl that will help him keep it together.

Jay-Z, BeyoncĂŠ travel into controversy, Thatcher dies CAMERON RODA Lantern reporter roda.7@osu.edu This is part of a weekly series called “Pop Opinionsâ€? where The Lantern offers its take on the week’s pop culture news.

Courtesy of MCT

Recording artists Jay-Z and BeyoncĂŠ arrive in Washington D.C. for the presidential inauguration Jan. 21.

Jay-Z and BeyoncĂŠ Travel to Cuba Two weeks ago, hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and his wife BeyoncĂŠ celebrated their fifth anniversary by taking a trip to Havana. Although the trip was sanctioned by the United States Treasury Department, various public figures have come out and condemned the trip. Sen. Marco Rubio (R–Fla.) called the trip “hypocriticalâ€? because Jay-Z and his wife did not visit Cuba to help troubled citizens. Jay-Z responded satirically with a song titled “Open Letterâ€? in which he says, “Boy from the hood but got White House clearance,â€? referencing the trip. During a White House press conference, a reporter referenced these lyrics, asking White House Press Secretary Jay Carney about the approval. “I guess nothing rhymes with treasury,â€? Carney replied.

This really should be a non-issue, as many

American celebrities have visited countries which the U.S. is not friendly with. Former Chicago Bull Dennis Rodman recently visited North Korea, while television host Anthony Bourdain traveled to Myanmar, a country with a recent history of human rights issues, to film an episode for his new TV show.

Former British PM Dies Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher died last week at age 87. Thatcher was appointed prime minister in 1979 and became known as the “Iron Lady� for her strong-willed leadership and uncompromising stances on various political issues, both domestic and international.

Thatcher’s tenure as prime minister lasted 11 years, highlighted by her anti-Communist stance and close relationship with United States former President Ronald Reagan during the Cold War. Thatcher’s legacy within Great Britain remains mixed due to many of her domestic policies and her behavior toward the British soccer culture.

As Great Britain’s most popular sport, many soccer fans detest Thatcher for her condescending attitude toward it, particularly her approach toward eradicating hooliganism and violence surrounding matches.

[ spotlight ] ‘Animals and Children’ to take Wexner Center stage HILARY FREW Lantern reporter frew.12@osu.edu Projections and live animation are the basis of one U.K.-based theater company, called “1927.”

The company is set to open its latest piece “The Animals and Children Took to the Streets” at the Wexner Center for the Arts’ Performance Space Thursday at 8 p.m.

Sue Appleby, who plays different roles in the production, said the production tells the story of two main characters, Agnes, a single mother, and Evie, her young daughter, who come to visit an urban slum, called the Bayou. They are unaware of the town’s dangerous reputation, which includes wolves and deranged children.

“The children around there have gone wild,” Appleby said. “(The mother and daughter) come to bring change along the Bayou mansion. It’s about, ‘How do they survive?’ and ‘Do they bring change?’

Those are the questions.”

Chuck Helm, director of performing arts at the Wexner Center, saw the production last summer at the Edinburgh Festival in Scotland. He said he enjoyed the elaborate stage, complete with projections of animations and open areas in the set where actors’ heads can pop out.

“It has (an) inventive use of projections of the

‘When Animals and Children Took to the Streets’ is set to open at the Wexner Center for the Arts’ Performance Space April 18. actors, because it’s supposed to look like a graphic novel,” Helm said. “It’s very dark humor … twisted stuff. It’s a different show in that way.”

Max Glenn, a graduate student in theater, plans to attend the performance on Thursday and said live animation and projections are common to see. He has seen similar attempts in other cities.

“The Redmoon Theater company did something similar in Chicago,” Glenn said. “It was an awardwinning production where they presented a graphic

novel through window panes. It was called ‘The Astronaut’s Birthday.’”

Keeping in mind the timing of the animation paired with the music and acting, Appleby said the roles she plays were challenging.

“I play piano through(out) the show, sing and act,” Appleby said. “There were a lot of tricky elements to master. They gave me the score two months before I was rehearsing. I was given video of the animated film to start and piece everything

together. I hold the reins for everything throughout the (production).”

Certain themes in the production are relatable to theatergoers around the world, Appleby said.

“Everywhere we’ve taken it, it (has) impacted (others) with universal themes,” Appleby said. “The poor getting poorer and (the rich) ruling over big banks, which is mentioned at the beginning.”

Along those lines, she added, “This (play) speaks to everyone (and) puts down all language barriers.”

Appleby promises the show will consist of “lots of hearty laughter” as well as beauty.

“You can feel the excitement when people see the animation,” Appleby said. “The animation is absolutely beautiful, funny, quirky, and it’s very exciting for them to see it.”

Appleby said she is excited to perform in Columbus and has enjoyed exploring the city.

“We have been shopping at (a) vintage store, eaten like kings and booked ourselves in for yoga.

It’s great here,” she said.

Performances are scheduled for Thursday through Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets cost $10 for students and must be purchased at the front desk of the Wexner Center with BuckID. General admission tickets cost $18 and can be purchased through the Wexner Center’s website.

Columbus suburb Dublin brimming with shops, bar food, history, flavor of Ireland ROSE DAVIDSON Lantern reporter davidson.347@osu.edu Columbus is brimming with interesting neighborhoods beyond the borders of Ohio State. Each week, The Lantern will spotlight an area in or around Columbus.

In Columbus’ suburb of Dublin, sophisticated old-time Irish charm mixes in with a thirst for modernday entertainment. In fact, the Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau explains the flair of the town best with its motto — “Irish is an attitude.” These are words that are truly lived up to in the community of more than 40,000 residents.

Shop What was formerly the area’s predominant residential area is now a cozy, walkable downtown area known as “Historic Dublin.” The buildings still maintain their antiquated character, but today, their interiors are filled with independently owned

commercial properties. One such property is Our CupCakery, located at 16 N. High St. The store creates some mouth-watering custom cakes and other sweet treats but is also home to a “Create Your Own Cupcake Bar” that sets it apart from other bakeries throughout Columbus. Customers can choose which flavor, icing and toppings to go into each individual cupcake and then pay $1 per ounce for their custom creations. According to the website, the average customer spends about $3 per cupcake.

Roughly three miles away in a different part of Dublin is The Mall at Tuttle Crossing. Shopping centers can be hectic on the weekends, especially in the often-frequented Polaris Fashion Place or Easton Town Center. The Mall at Tuttle Crossing has come to be the forgotten mall of Columbus, but it’s filled with more than 100 retailers, many of which are widely recognizable brands. Located at 5043 Tuttle Crossing Blvd., the mall boasts such names as Express, Forever 21, H&M and Sephora.

Though not as large as either of the aforementioned shopping centers, The Mall at Tuttle Crossing offers a similar store selection with a slightly less chaotic atmosphere.

Dine Dublin has a load of well-established independent restaurants, though many of them are fairly expensive.

However, one of Dublin’s guilty pleasures is specialty bar food — a type of cuisine that often comes with a smaller price tag. One of these establishments is Brazenhead Irish Pub, located at 56 N. High St. in Historic Dublin. Brazenhead cooks up a variety of burgers, all priced at $9.50, (except the basic burger, which is $8.50) but also offers some less traditional dishes, such as Thai chicken skewers for $8 or duck confit sliders for $6.

Another great pub is Matt the Miller’s Tavern, located at 6725 Avery-Muirfield Drive. Similar to Brazenhead, the tavern has a second Columbus location in Grandview — however, Matt the Miller’s has a far more extensive list of bottled beverages from which to choose, including ales, lagers and ciders. The drinks come at a reasonable price — with many in the $3 to $5 range — but the restaurant’s entrees are a little pricier than desired, ranging from $14.99 for fish and chips to $31.99 for a 10 oz. steak filet.

Self-proclaimed gastropub 101 Beer Kitchen opened in October at 7509 Sawmill Road. Unlike other

Dublin pubs, though, this one focuses strictly on fresh, local ingredients. In fact, the restaurant’s spring menu is scheduled to be introduced to diners Thursday and includes dishes such as the marinated chicken taco salad and the ancho coffee-rubbed pork chop with peach chutney. The prices for these dishes are not yet available online.

Explore The Dublin Irish Festival is the pinnacle of summer activity for the town, bringing a strong flavor of Ireland to the Midwest for those hoping to experience the culture of the Ohio city’s namesake. This year’s festival is scheduled for Aug. 2-4 and is expected to draw roughly 100,000 visitors for the 29-acre event’s live music lineup, dancing, cultural exhibits and children’s activities. There will also be plenty of local food vendors present, as well as a marketplace filled with Irish-themed products. One-day tickets for students with valid IDs are $7 online through Aug. 1 or $8 after that, including the day of the event. For regular adult tickets, the prices are increased by $1. The event will be held at Coffman Park, located at 5200 Emerald Parkway.
