OSU intramurals adds concussion policy, expert says it’s a step in the right direction
stetson p ay n e news editor
Austin Dick locked onto his target, a football thrown over the middle and dropping toward him. The Oklahoma State management senior said the details are all secondhand because he has no memory of the event. As he moved up on the ball from his deep safety position, he didn’t see the receiver or his teammate on a collision course with him. The lights went out violently.
“All I remember is them hiking the ball, and then I remember waking up with four or five (EMTs) surrounding me, and I had no idea what happened,” Dick said. “They were asking me if I knew what day it was, or where I was at, and I couldn’t answer any of those questions.” The game stopped when Dick’s face smashed into his teammate’s ear. The collision knocked him to the ground as his concussed brain settled in his skull. When he came to, he said nothing was as it seemed. “I laid there for a while, called my mom,” Dick said. “I was still really out of it not knowing what was going on. I remember looking over at my friend who I hit and his ear is gushing blood, and I’m like, ‘How’d

you get hurt?’” Dick said he was able to walk to a car for a ride to the emergency room and recovered in just over a week. He said he returned to the field a month later. University of Tulsa’s director of athletic training said intramural concussions are a genuine concern, namely with when players can return to the field. Ron Walker, also a clinical professor at TU, said when testing for concussions, athletic trainers will use cognitive tests compared with predetermined base scores for a given player. If a player scores lower after a hit to the head or shows obvious signs of a concussion, he or she is pulled from Courtesy of Austin Dick competition.

on, they’re going to pull the individual out,” Linsenmeyer said. “Any of those individuals that are pulled out for a potential concussion have to go seek medical attention before they’ll be allowed to play intramural or club sports again.” Linsenmeyer said supervisors receive training on concussion protocols, and officials have a card listing signs and symptoms of concussions on their person. But he also said those watching aren’t medical staff. “It’s just our staff as far as officials and supervisors; sometimes our graduate students go out there, but none of them are athletic trainers, none of them are any of the advanced medical training certifications,” Linsenmeyer said. Although tracking concussions is a good start for any intramural department, it depends on who’s monitoring players, Walker said.
He said although referees or supervisors can act as monitors, they’re focused on the rules and the fair play of a game, not specifically any signs of a concussion. Ideally, an athletic trainer can observe participants because otherwise some less-obvious concussions might be missed. “From an injury surveillance standpoint, yeah, it’s certainly going to be hard to track,” Walker said. “When they have an incident and there’s a report filed, I would think that if the reports reflected that participants have concussions, I would think those would only be the most severe cases, which would be in the minority.” Linsenmeyer said because the undergraduate athletic training program was moved to an OSUTulsa graduate program, there isn’t a viable way to have medical staff observe. “There’s really no avenues here to get athletic
trainers,” Linsenmeyer said. “Obviously, those are expensive. We have lots of events; we have 50 plus events that we offer every year. “Trying to staff an athletic trainer or someone who’s got advanced medical certifications, that budget would go out the roof just for basketball, same thing for flag football. … Trying to provide that would be a nightmare as far as budget concerns. We just don’t have that available. ” Walker said even if officials monitor for concussions, they should be trained enough to provide the rising standard of care for intramural sports. “There’s absolutely no reason for intramural departments across the country to not accept (concussion training) as a standard and require that for their intramural officials and game managers,” Walker said.

3 Cowboys to wrestle in GIA for final time by Lu k e Gar z a
S p orts R epo rter
It’s time for one last rodeo. A trio of Cowboys will wrestle in Gallagher-Iba Arena for the final time Friday night when North Carolina (12-4) comes to Stillwater. Alex Dieringer and Eddie Klimara made their debuts in the 2012-13 season; Austin Marsden made his the season before. Each made their GIA debuts on different dates, but they’ll conclude their home wrestling career Cowboy Wrestling Who: North Carolina When: 7 p.m. Friday Where: Gallagher-Iba Arena Broadcast: Stream: flowrestling.org Radio: 93.7 KSPI-FM
together on senior night. Coach John Smith has experienced it before. There comes a time in every collegiate athlete’s career when he or she has to hang it up because of injury or depletion of eligibility. Thankfully, this time the reason is the latter. “You get them right where you want them, and they leave you,” Smith said. “That’s the difference between business and coaching. Business they stay with you and coaching they leave you.” The three seniors have appeared in a combined 73 matches this season, posting a 69-4 record. Marsden and Klimara have known each other since they were 9 years old. “Having (Kilmara) come up here is just having another friend on the team like old times,” Marsden said.
“We’re just in shock it came by so fast. It’s pretty special to share that moment with him, especially since we’ve known each other for a long time. Now we’re finishing our career together.” Marsden came to the team in 2011. After getting his redshirt pulled, he wrestled in 32 matches, winning 27. Klimara was an All-American last year, going 24-7. His victory Sunday against Stanford marked the 100th of his career. Dieringer is the most decorated of the three seniors. He is a threetime All-American and two-time defending national champion. “I feel like I just got here yesterday,” Dieringer said. “Time’s flown by really fast, and I’ve enjoyed every second of it. It’s gonna be an emotional day, but

I’m gonna try to go out with a big bang.” An OSU (12-2) victory Friday would extend its winning streak to 11 and send off its three seniors in appropriate fashion. Faced with the task of No. 1 Penn State on Sunday, the Cowboys are hitting their stride at an ideal time. Keeping the hot streak alive would be a fitting way to send the three wrestlers into
one last postseason run. “I’m just living in the moment right now,” Marsden said. “If everything works out, I’m gonna take my time and embrace all of it and hopefully give something to the fans that they’ll remember.” Follow luke: @LukeAGarza

ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES ENRICH STUDENT EXPERIENCE By: ALEX MARIANOS
132,000. That is the number of service hours logged by the
Oklahoma State University student body in 2015 through the OSU Service-learning Volunteer Center. Proof of how invested students are in their communities and making the world a better place. OSU students’ volunteer, philanthropic and community involvement is also a major reason for the university being awarded the Carnegie Community Engagement Classification, which recognizes colleges and universities having an institutional-wide focus on community engagement. Director of the office of Leadership and Campus Life, Dr. John Mark Day says an annual study on college freshman by the Higher Education Research Institute indicates the three things first-year students are more likely to engage in are community activism, community leadership and engagement, and a desire to make a difference in someone’s life. “While there appears to be a rising trend nationally of university students being ONE BIG DAY. ONE BIG DIFFERENCE. involved in their ONE BIG EVENT. communities now more than ever, engagement seems to be engrained in the fiber of Oklahoma State, probably a big factor in why OSU seems to attract students who want The Big Event at OSU is scheduled for Sat. April 16. to be involved,” Day Last year 1,600 OSU students helped more than 270 said. “Engagement, Stillwater residents.

mission and why OSU focuses on building students who will create positive change in their community after graduation. We aren’t just graduating students who excel in their fields of study. OSU graduates students who become leaders in their communities. It’s part of what it means to be a Cowboy.” There are multitudes of engagement opportunities for students to help others, Day said. “One thing that is so great about the OSU campus, if you want to get involved all you have to do is walk across library lawn with your eyes open and you’ll find hundreds of ways to get involved. So if a student is really interested in engaging with the community, they have plenty of options.” Day said. Into the Streets Director Vivian O’Hara finds community engagement necessary during college because it gives students a break from the routine of class and to really feel like they are doing something more with their lives. “I got involved with Into the Streets my freshman year,” O’Hara said. “I have always loved community service and Into the Streets really gave me an outlet to give back and engage with the community I was living in. Just that one day of service can be truly life changing for someone in the community.” O’Hara believes students’ enthusiasm to engage in the communities where they live will get stronger even after their time at Oklahoma State.
