Academy celebrates 60 years

April 1, 1954: the official birthday of the U.S. Air Force Academy, is now reverently remembered as “Founder’s Day.”

On that date 60 years ago, with Congressional and Air Force leaders looking on, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed

Public Law 325, 83rd Congress, 2nd Session, formally authorizing the establishment of the Academy.

Strap In’ for USAFA’s wild ride

Four layers of clothing aren’t ever quite enough to keep the cold out. You shuffle and stomp and bounce, breath crystallizing in front of your face beneath the glare of the stadium lights. It’s been two hours already.

You can’t feel your fingers.

You can’t feel your toes.

Suddenly— finally—the line moves, roughly 2,000 people surging forward all at once toward the relative warmth of the tunnel. Cheese, water, and candies take flight as dollar bills flutter from somewhere above and the roar of people cheering escalates. You feel like the center of a hundred different collisions, bouncing off people in every direction. To your left, someone’s squad comm is on his friends’ shoulders, floating haphazardly above the crowd.

As you file toward the mouth of the tunnel, everything compresses almost in an instant from utter chaos to neat rows. You are parked midfield (probably crooked). You salute, drop, pivot. From all around you comes the familiar rumble that always makes you smirk, the one that’s not actually supposed to be audible: “Hey, stupid. Hey, stupid...”

Don’t get trampled. Don’t get trampled. Don’t get trampled.

Chaos resumes. You snatch your cover from your head as you run, arm in arm with the closest person you could reach, elbows

out. The crowd pushes you from behind as you run up the stadium benches, finally coming to a stop as empty spaces cease to appear in front of you. As you turn around, the jumbotron and the speakers come to life at the south end of the field.

“STRAP IN FOR AIR FORCE FOOTBALL.”

The theme for this yearbook came to me in the form of C1C James Gregory, who just happened to be chatting with someone at the CQ when I came storming through his squadron in search of Roed Mejia, my Firstie Section editor. There was a deadline to make, and as anyone who’s ever met me knows, patience is not a virtue I practice on a particularly regular basis. I told Roed to hurry up and bring whoever he could find to our theme discussion. As it turned out, this was the best move I’d made all week.

Everyone who’s been to an Air Force football game knows where “Strap In” comes from, but it doesn’t stop at “Welcome to thin air!” or “Where cadets become generals!” It applies to so much more.

It starts with the mental strap-in-and-go that has to happen the first day of basicwhen the word “expedite” seems to rain from the heavens and you don’t knowwhich way is up. It’s there for the wild ride of Recognition where freshmen strap into their Camelbaks so they (hopefully) won’t pass out. Juniors strap in to the cadet-loan car that is freedom on wheels and we all lookforward to the day we walk back outonto that same football field for the last time to graduate and charge forward into the future on full afterburner.

This yearbook captures all of that and more—everything from the big events to the little moments that you experience as a cadet strapped into the roller coaster that is life at the Air Force Academy. - C1C Sarah Castro

Lt Gen Johnson @)(JSAFA_Supt

Lt Gen MichelleJohnson is the 19th Superintendent of the @AF_Academy

@USAFA_Supt New general tries te on for size

The superintendent’s office is on the third floor of Harmon Hall, a series of right turns, and the large suite with glass doors welcomes you. With the many wrong reasons why a cadet could be required to visit, it’s difficult to suppress antsy feelings even when called up for a yearbook interview.

Lt Gen Michelle Johnson is a distinguished graduate of the Air Force Academy Class of 1981. She holds the titles of Rhodes Scholar, first woman to command the Cadet Wing, pilot, superintendent, and perhaps most importantly...mother. She admits shehas some “chinks in her armor,” and while she does not like to talk about her

diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, she says everyone has to deal with...a few bumps in the road.

Another first for General Johnson is her involvement and use (as Academy superintendent) of the social media forum: Twitter. Following other leaders such as Air Force Chief of Staff Gen Mark Welsh, General Johnson uses the social forum to get in touch with and appeal to the Cadet Wing and future cadets who are often glued to their phones and socialmedia sites.

In the spirit of that theme, she tried to reply to interview questions in 140 characters: - C2C Jeanne Domingo

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What would dream cadet experience be?

Take more language classes!... and I thought then, and think now, that a ooner have a really cool cadet "job."

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What's next after USAFA?

Our fifth grade twin boys will have to finish middle school and high school!

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What benefits does Twitter have?

Firstly, I need to get better at it - I'm far too slow! But, this form of media can help demystify some things, i.e. highlight how we spend our time, where and who and when.

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt -What is it like being back at the Academy, and as the superintendent with the mass use of social media?

"A lie can travel halfway round the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." So we're working hard to be as transparent and communicate as clearly as possible, as fairly as possible, as quickly as possible.

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What was your secret to success as a cadet?

Great high school prep; excellent USAFA teachers, mentors and AOCs; personally - intense focus and compartmentalizing - sometimes can't believe it could all come together the way it did!

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - Something you wishes you knew as a cadet about real life/active duty Air Force.

People react to "change" in very similar ways, unfortunately not always with open arms. Whether it's about personal characteristics (e.g. diversity), or professional background, i.e. career field or service (joints), people can act out pretty harshly,.. until they see the mutual benefits, which they will do... eventually

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What are the upcoming consequences and challenges that USAFA will face?

We're focused on preserving the Essence of our Academy mission and experience - the "What"; and, frankly we might very well need to change the way we do some things with particular attentionto making business-like decisions regarding resources - the how"

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What and where were your favorite assignments and why?

Flying operations, increasing responsibilities and span of control, the assignments at the joint, coalition, political military level where all my professional education, training, and experience were put to the test.

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What is your vision for USAFA?

Culture of commitment, climate of respect with an ever-improving and empowered cadet wing which holds itself accountable, an ever-improving faculty and staff to model great professionalism

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - How was working under POTUS?

Huge privilege as a citizen and an officer to serve two Presidents, George H.W. Bush and William J. Clinton. My role was basicallycontinuity of the Presidency; and it was incredibleto serve during an election and change of office in the oldest and greatest democracy in the world... peacefully and civilly. I wish could have served at the WH before taught polisci at USAFA - would have had better stories for the cadets!

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - How has USAFA changed from your time as a cadet, and what stayed the same?

National political and social issues play out on our Terrazzo; our Nation has grown more diverse and has experienced a different set of post-Cold War economic, social and military challenges than we knew in the post-Vietnam/ Civil Rights movements ofthe 60s and 70s; social media has changed the way we communicate, and expectations for how fast we communicate; parents and alumni are much more involved; butthe enduring principles of our Academy remain: Character and Leadership Development - based on Honor; a creative faculty and curriculum; competition in sports, Dean's programs and clubs; exposure to AF missions, the ethos of Airmen, professional culture; four years of immersion and an elite installation where we live and work.

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - In what ways did the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis change your life, both personal and career?

Everyone has had or will have some unexpected, unwanted burden to bear in life. Many people carry far greater burdens than mine, Though I'm no longer on flying status, I'm grateful that I'm basically physically unimpaired and able to take on tough professional challenges and also enjoy a happy, active life with my family.

Lt Gen Johnson @USAFA_Supt - What advice do you have for cadets who advocate religious tolerance but don't feel they should have to hide or suppress their own faith?

No one should have to hide or suppress faith. But we should be able to have civil discourse and not allow disparity in power to put undue influence on others. We should be able to have rich, respectful exchanges of views,

Basic Cadet Training BCT lessons challenge, teach cadre as well as basic trainees

Most people focus on the trainees and their lifestyle during Basic Cadet Training. After all, BCT is one of the things every single person in the Long Blue Line has endured. Regardless of the level of rigor of a class or the different obstacles each person had to face, Basic still stands as a common denominator for everyone.

Less attention is paid to the cadre responsible for training basic cadets, although the physical and mental demands of the job frequently exceed those placed on the trainees.

“As an element leader, I usually got four to five hours of sleep a night. As a squadron commander, three hours was the norm,” said C1C Kelsey Dees of her two terms as BCT cadre.

Long after basics are put to bed cadre commanders meet with their staff to debrief the day and prepare for the next day’s events.

“We hashed out possible conflicts and also passed on miscellaneous notes we thought all flights could benefit from,” Cadet Dees said. “There’s a lot of behind the scenes work that cadre do. We’d also meet approximately 20 minutes before reveille to again review the upcoming day’s events.”

Trainees might be surprised to learn staying motivated is a challenge shared by basics and cadre alike. Cadre begins preparing for BCT

months in advance and it can be difficult to keep people focused while they juggle school, finals and other obligations.

“As a cadre, stress develops from trying to accomplish goals for yourself, your cadre, and your basics along with administrative work all within a very restrictive and busy schedule,” Cadet Dees said. “As a basic, it’s expected that you will become fatigued, but as a cadre, you have to make a conscious effort to ensure that your fatigue, frustrations, etc. don’t show.”

The experience is something cadre cherish though as they seek to become better leaders. Cadre is the first introduction for many of the incoming classes. They represent the Academy, Air Force and military as a whole to bright-eyed high school-ers who have high expectations of what the Academy will provide for them.

“Always remember this is an opportunity for you to leave a lasting impression. Your basics will write home to their families about you, about the Academy and about their experience,” Cadet Dees said. “What do you want those letters to say? Simply by wearing the beret, you become an instant role model for your basics. Make sure you live up to it. Be ready to work hard!” -

Cadet Wing honors 9/11 heroes with 24-hour vigil run, memorial

A 24-hour vigil run around the Terrazzo began this year’s commemoration which honored the 2,751 killed in the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York.

Teams of runners kept up a slow but steady pace around-the-clock for a marathon that ended with a retreat formation and a closing ceremony where three wreaths were placed at the Academy’s 9/11 Memorial.

The event was a painful, but necessary reminder for attendees.

Recalling the feeling of defeat throughout the infamous day, “we all just felt like we let the American people down,” said Lt Col Grant Weller, History Department professor.

For C3C Yaira Diaz, the words of her father, a resident of New York City at the time,

resonate prophetically today.

“[We] will live with a greater amount of scrutiny related to actual intentions upon visiting sporting events, movies, and theater shows... you will surrender more of your personal privacy... before 9/11, there were no real checkpoints of the average citizen in everyday life.”

Black gates and proxy cards, unseen on Academy grounds prior to 9/11, are facts of everyday life now, measures taken to ensure cadets’ safety.

Standing in formation to remember the event, cadets proudly honored those whose lives forever changed the world. The ceremony stood as a heartfelt reminder of the reason why many are here. - Polaris staff

Mountain parties, four degrees’ creativity make great memories

Air Force Academy cadets do more than celebrate George Washington’s and Abraham Lincoln’s birthdays over Presidents’ Weekend. The event is a major milestone for seniors and freshmen alike as they mark the 100 days countdown to graduation.

“I still remember what wemy squad mates and I - did for the Class of 2011, it’s one of my greatest memories as a freshmen,” said C1C Adam Kenes.

The Class of 2014 celebrated in style abandoning the Academy and taking the weekend to the mountains. Some traveled out of state to California or Las Vegas, but none were to be found in the dorms. Even firstie “shut-ins” were nowhere to be seen on base, leaving the Class of 2017 free to roam dormitory halls.

Firsties drove off newly informed of their first post-Academy duty location. In their absence, Academy tradition has freshmen decorating seniors’ rooms while older ca

dets are out celebrating. The Class of 2017 stepped up to the task of making room decorations memorable for their favorite (or least favorite) firsties.

“All the corn! It was everywhere, my floor, on my bed, on my hat rack, in my drawers... my drawers,” said C1C Matthew Bettis upon returning.

Much of the weekend is about firsties closing in on graduation. It also marks a key point for four degree as well though. For the first time since arriving for inprocessing, the freshmen are allowed freedom to swarm nearby stores in the hunt for supplies.

Firsties return, hopefully refreshed and ready for the home stretch before they walk across the stage in Falcon Stadium. Fourthclassmen taste the freedom and responsibilities they’ll have after Recognition. For both classes, 100s Weekend is one to remember.

Freshmen silence doubters among Zeamer, Wright, Brodeur classes

Recognition for the Class of 2017 was the culmination of their hard work physically, mentally and emotionally all throughout basic and the academic year.

It’s common knowledge that Basic Cadet Training and freshmen year training were performed differently this year as there was a focus on transformational leadership, much to the dismay of numerous cadets. Upperclassmen believed they did not have an opportunity to adequately prepare the Class of 2017 for the rigors of Recognition.

“I thought they were unprepared to go through Recognition, they weren't greeting in the hallways or anything,” said C2C Oliver Pohl when asked if he thought the Class of 2017 was ready to face the

rigors of Recognition Weekend.

This cynical attitude then subsided at the conelusion of retreat on that Thursday afternoon. The classes of Zeamer, Wright and Brodeur rushed the underclassman with an onslaught of tests and trials and over the course of the weekend. The Class of 2017 met and exceeded all expectations resulting in this year’s Recognition being regarded as one of the most successful in Academy history.

“It was a learning weekend, they had to learn to come together and work together because it’s something they haven’t really done since Basic Training... but they caught on and followed through as a class,” said C2C Jeanne Domingo.

Spring exercise wraps up military training

The Super Silver Saturday of Polaris Warrior April 26 wrapped up a year’s worth of weekend training and tested the Cadet Wing’s military skills and knowledge.

The competition incorporated land navigation, self-aid and buddy care, ordinance recognition, physical endurance, and many more tactical skills officers should know in order to successfully lead their people.

Preparations for the event started in the fall semester on Saturday when there was no football game. Each of the 40 squadrons in the Cadet Wing relied on a major training events officer in charge to oversee unit training programs.

The Fabulous Thunderbirds of Cadet Squadron 27 came in fourth overall in the Wing-wide competition. Behind the success were subject matter experts who attended separate training during the fall semester and then taught their respective squadron teams.

Spring semester, with no more football, saw squadrons ramp up their efforts utilizing

Saturday training days to prep for events and hone skills needed for the competition. Training officers used the naturally competitive nature of cadets to counteract their reluctance to give up weekend time to the preparations.

The training officers’ blood, sweat, and tears, mostly from paper cuts, paid off as the Cadet Wing took Polaris Warrior in full force near theend of the academic year.

Those not participating in teams proudly wore squadron colors at the finish line on the Terrazzo cheering their squadron competitors on as they came through. The loud music put smiles on the faces of the tired combatants who had undergone challenges fit for a warrior.

CS 34 emerged as the overall winner. Squadron commander C1C Eric Stubblefield praised his teams and the motivation of the competitors.

“We succeeded because of the people in the squadron... All I had to do was let them do their thing, and it took care of itself,” he said.

UAS Program ‘Raven’ gives current ops feeling to unmanned systems training

The Unmanned Aerial Systems Airmanship Program shifted toward active-duty relevance this year when it began using the Raven RQ-11 an aircraft currently used in combat overseas. The change allows cadets who run the program to become certified on actual Air Force airframes, a training advantage for those who choose the route of becoming a remotely-piloted aircraft pilot.

UAS instructors sought an aircraft cadets can manage. This includes launching and landing the bird, organizing flight times and planning flight missions.

“The program wanted to switch from the norm of cadets riding down to the airfield just to sit behind a desk without much thought or action. Now the program is much more hands on and realistic,” said C2C Corinne Easter. “I want to stick with the unmanned programs in the Air Force and this is the best program to help me prepare for my dream job.”

Not only are students trained on operational Air Force aircraft, they learn skills that carry over and aid in their success following graduation from the Academy. The program emphasizes mission operations, practicing leadership in a group setting, as well as including the intimidating pilot training must haves of emergency procedures and stand ups. Those skills, sharpened in the program,

provide cadets a way to become more suecessful in their Air Force careers.

“I think it is awesome to be able to use a combat operational aircraft. It really gives you a better understanding of the operational Air Force and what they can use in the unmanned realm,” said C2C Jeremy Snell.

The Raven has two different payloads (electro-optical/infrared capability) and can fly up to 10,500 above sea level. Its battery life can last 60-90 minutes fielding for a perfeet flight time during class periods.

The Academy sent 11 cadets from the Class of 2015 to Hurlbert Field, FL, over the summer to train with the RQ-11. This is the first time in Air Force history cadets have become fully certified and operationally ready on any unmanned aerial vehicle.

Once the 2015 cadets returned, they advanced their skills as leaders under the guidance of instructor pilots from the Class of 2014. A new group of cadets from the Class of 2016 travels to Hurlbert Field this summer.

“I think that UAS has come a long way in the last years,” said C2C Jacob Seabury. “I think it can only get better from here and I hope it does. I strive to become an RPA pilot someday and if I can I would like to help put my foot in the door for that future.” - Academy UAS Program

Story ofself-redemption ends with Loose Hawgs named wing’s best

“When I found out I was going to CS 34 my heart dropped. I felt like I had been punished somehow.”

C2C Austin Cooner’s sentiment was shared by most of the Class of 2015 upon learning the Fall 2012 shuffle had placed them into Cadet Squadron 34. It is alsothe launch point of a cadet-driven success story that ends with earning the 2014 Outstanding Squadron banner.

CS 34 was a notoriously low performing unit with a bizarre nickname and an inconvenientlocation. As the school year progressed, the apprehension felt by the new Loose Hawgs seemed vindicated as the squadron steadily dropped in the Outstanding Squadron rankings rank as a result of lax enforcement of standards and low morale. By May 2013, the Loose Hawgs had hit rock bottom, finishing 39th out of 40 squadrons in the Cadet Wing.

“Little did I know the immense leadership opportunity I would be afforded,” Cadet Cooner said.

It was time for a change. With C1C Sierra Richardson, a stern yet compassionate commander, and Maj Anthony Puleo, a supportive and inspiring Air Officer Commanding at the yoke, the Loose Hawgs started making tremendous strides.

The first step in the process was creating an environment in which lackadaisical military performance was not tolerated. Although there were growing pains at first, high standards quickly became a way of life for this squadron.

“I saw individuals tutoring each other,

working to log [extra instruction! hours, physically working out together, attending training sessions, and militarily beginning to correct each other,” Cadet Richardson said. “The first time CS 34 was recognized publicly for something positive was by the Commandant, I think that sparked the thirst to continue to embrace the new standards in the squadron.”

The second and most vital step was to bring the Loose Hawgs together as a team. “Pride, teamwork, success” became a mantra chanted around the squadron.

Gradually, CS 34 became more connected and committed to the pursuit of excellence. “Loose Hawgs” was no longer an unfortunate moniker, but instead a source of pride and the sixth floor of Sijan Tower became home.

“I started to feel proud in the fall of this past year,” Cadet Cooner said, “That’s when 2014 and 2015 started to change the standards and the mentality of the squadron from mediocrity to performance.”

The end of fall semester saw the Loose Hawgs in the Cadet Wing’s number two position. Ecstatic over the accomplishment, cadets knew it was not time to ease up and slack off. When C1C Eric Stubblefield took over in spring, his attitude was one of maintaining and improving upon the progress already made.

Under his leadership, the Loose Hawgs snagged number one from a very unsuspecting Cadet Wing, successfully completing the greatest turnaround in Outstanding Squadron history. - C2C Marissa Beiling

Combat Fatality Convoy attack in Afghanistan kills 2008 alumni, track star

An Academy graduate killed in action was laid to rest at the Academy Cemetery Jan. 8 following his funeral at New Life Church Wednesday in Colorado Springs.

Capt David I. Lyon died Dec. 27 when enemy forces attacked his convoy in Afghanistan. He was deployed in support of Combined Joint Special Operations Task ForceAfghanistan, performing a Combat Advisory mission with Afghan National Army Commandos.

A member of the 21st Logistics Readiness Squadron at Peterson AFB, CO, Lyon and two Slovakian service members died when a vehicle-born improvised explosive device was detonated near his convoy. He wasone of 10 killed in the attack, along with two NATO military personnel and seven Afghan forces.

Lyon, a 2008 Academy graduate, was a three-year letter winner for the Falcons' track and field team and a Mountain West champion in the shot put.

Known as David Lissy during his time with the Falcons’ track and field program, the native of Sandpoint, ID, served as a team captain during the 2007-08 season, while earning a conference title in the shot put at the 2008 Mountain West Indoor Championships. He is still ranked third on the Academy’s all-time list in both the indoor and outdoor shot put, highlighted by a throw of 57’IF’ during the 2008 indoor season.

A recipient of the track and field program’s Laura Piper Ironman Award (named after a 1991 Academy graduate and former Air Force thrower who was killed in action during Operation DESERT SHIELD in Iraq), Lyon was named to the National Strength and Conditioning Association All-American team, which recognized his excellence in strength training.

“My memories of Dave are not how far he threw, or any honors he received, but of his character and leadership,” Air Force track and field head coach Ralph Lindeman said.

“A fearless and intense competitor, Dave was one of the nicest young men I can ever remember coaching in my 24-plus years at (the Academy). He cared deeply about his team and his teammates. Dave was entirely selfless always willing to share his time, energy, experience and expertise with his teammates.

For that very reason, he was one of the most outstanding team captains we’ve ever had here during my tenure. Dave was the epitome of a ‘warrior and winner.’”

Lyon, who changed his last name after graduation with respect to his adopted parents, is survived by his wife, DanaPoundsLyon, a 2006 Academy graduate and twotime NCAA champion in the javelin throw.

Newest academic leader comes from within

BDean of Faculty

rig Gen Andrew Armacost became the Academy’s 10th Dean of the Faculty in a transfer of command ceremonyJune 25 in the Arnold Hall Ballroom.

The 2013-2014 academic year has certainly been a busy one for the new dean, however General Armacost found time to sit down with yearbook section editors

C1C Kyle Palko and C2C Emily Willson.

Polaris: What prompted the changes to the schedule of calls?

General Armacost: CWproposed the change. We on thefaculty resisted initially, primarily because ofthe earlier start and the impact on cadets. But the pros tended to outweigh the cons.

P: Did the instructors seem to like the new schedule more?

GA: Hard to say, as this is instructor-dependent. Our main concern is how it impacts cadets and our ability to manage the manyfaculty professional development activities and meetings that occur near the lunch hour - this time is now much more compressed.

P: What prompted you guys to get rid of the dean approved mugs?

GA: Lastfall we were talking about it and Ijust said “Can ’t we trust the cadets tofind one that doesn’t spill?” A spill-proof mug is one that the cadet deems to be spillproof. That was it.

P: What was the impact of sequestration that you saw?

GA: There was a large reduction on budgets, and not solely due to

sequestration. The greatest impact was on our civilianfaculty and staff members. They were furloughed and had holds placed on pay raises. USAFA leadershipfought hard to restore key benefits, with success. Yet, we’ve lost roughly two dozen military and civilian slots in DF. We reduced the number ofacademic majors. Requirementsfor language courses were impacted, with all cadets required to have two foreign language courses along with the opportunity to validate lower level language courses.

P: How did you decide what majors to cut?

GA: We had to consider many factors, but all decisions need tofollow a good process. Somefactors included size ofthe major and ease ofdelivering the content in a different format.

P: How has your career prepared you for this position?

GA: Having been a department head most recently, 1 have strong, existing relationships with the other Permanent Professors andfaculty leaders. These have been very helpful in thefirst year as Dean.

P: What do you think having the former management Department Head means to Management majors?

GA: I think myformer majors in management, SEM, and OR consider me one oftheir own, so they seem to enjoying seeing me in this role. I do have a very broad background and a strong commitment to all majors, so I hope that ALL cadets view me as “one oftheir own.

P: How will a diverse curriculum help out cadets as officers?

GA: We are a highly technical branch ofthe service, but we are all about leading people and understanding the complex environment in which we ’ll operate. So the broad curriculum helps our cadets develop to operate within a broad range of leadership challenges.

Capstone

Cadets seek measurable answers to precision airlift dilemma speeds,

capabilities and cost collide to create a logistical dilemma when it comes to airdropping cargo to support troops in the field. To address the problem, cadets applied their academic prowess to the Precision Airdrop Capstone this year.

The Joint Precision Airdrop System, or JPADS, can deliver supplies to ground troops at an exact location and time however the price tag for each use is upwards of $30,000. Roughly 99 percent of airdrops are unguided due to JPADS' cost.

“These unguided packages can be detrimental because the bundles could miss their targets, and recipients are in jeopardy of not getting their requested supplies,” said team leader C1C David Moore.

The Precision Airdrop Capstone aims to provide insight for true cost estimates across all viable airdrop options. A key point will be determining if the cost associated with JPADS outweighs risks associated with unguided missions. The first aspect is performing a cost-benefit analysis on different mission profiles.

“We will perform analysis that provides insight on a ‘break-even point.' This means we will take into account the additional costs associated with unguided pallets missing their target, and show how much extra cost must be assumed in order to match the cost of JPADS,” said C1C Zebulon Kimball, primary costsbenefit analysis consultant for the project. “It will then be up to the decision maker to decide if JPADS or unguided supplies will best suit their mission.”

The capstone involves cadets studying Operations Research, Mechanical Engineering, Meteorology, Management and Systems Engineering Management.

“We are not looking to suggest a full-time usage of JPADS or unguided cargo; rather, our job is to provide the decision maker with a dynamic tool to decide which delivery medium will be used given the mission constraints,” said administration officer C1C Jeremy Butler.

The second aspect of the study is proving or disproving a current airdrop assumption that the parachute on an unguided pallet descends with uniform velocity. Cadets will analyze data from airdrop tests using sensors and cameras to correlate changes in wind with changes in the shape of the parachute.

“If the data indicates the parachute undergoes changes in velocity throughout its flight, a major assumption throughout the airdrop community can be refuted." said C1C Craig Phelan, main programmer. “This will contribute to models and programs that are used to decide where to release cargo.”

Results will be presented to the Air Force Research Laboratory via written and oral presentations. Seniors will complete their work by the end of the semester, but their efforts may lead to future studies.

“Our work is neither the first nor the last step in the field of precision airdrop,” Cadet Moore said. “The work that we do is a stepping stone for further research and implementation. If we find relevant information, and provide a good basis for further research, the capstone might have a follow-on project for next year’s Operations Research majors.” - Precision Airlift Capstone

Astro Dragon threatens firsties’ chance to graduate

TSpace Monster

he Fairchild Hall of Horrors houses plenty of academic monsters which prey on over-obligated and study-challenged cadets. Surviving the terrors of calculus and physics have been said to scare the less intrepid from even reaching Commitment.

The most frightening beast of all though, one that must be challenged head on inorder to prove worthy of wearing those coveted gold bars, lies in wait for firsties - Astro. Cue ominous music.

For most cadets, rooms 5F17, 5F19, 5F21, 5F23 and 5F25 are nothing less than a dark swamp threatening to mire them into late-grad status. Typical non-Astro firsties spend 40 lessons in one of these rooms. Some special guests spend 80 and a few up to 120.

Perhaps the seemingly inexplicable choice of majoring in this field wouldn't have been a bad idea. Becoming disciples of the dragon might be the easier path to surviving its flames.

“Astro is the ultimate high ground, where you can pompously look down upon the other majors and laugh, before you realize that you wish you were one of them,” said astro major C 1C Connor Muilenburg.

For astro majors, these rooms feel like home, but it’s one where they must tip toe to avoid unwanted attention from the beast as it preys on fuzzy majors.

From the start, early space history disturbs firsties’ peace of mind with complex ideas of the universe posited by Copernicus and Galileo hundreds of years ago. Soon after, the introduction of position and velocity vectors for spacecraft pierces like arrows with magnitude and direction directly pointed at them.

“At first, it was easy just memorizing people, but then we had to learn dot and cross products that escalated quickly,” said C1C Courtney Sheeks a

behavior science major.

The introduction of classical orbital elements serves another blow to the already wretched souls of these would-be lieutenants. At this point, the real stuff, maneuvering satellites is introduced. This maneuvers firsties from their rooms to that of the closest astro major, in and out, particularly the day before a graded review.

“The night before a core astro GR is great! Finally everyone in squad wants to be your friend,” said astro major C1C Kyle Schroder.

The horrifying task of computing the Hohmann transfer is far more daunting than a performance fitness test. With the introduction of co-planer and co-orbital rendezvous, firsties leam the important lesson of rendezvousing around the right people at the right time, aka, professors’ offices for extra instruction.

Things are terrible enough when spacecraft subsystems are introduced. Thermal controls do nothing to prevent mental overheating among firsties eyeing a walk across the stage. However, attitude dynamics and control does help keep their minds sane in order to finish Operation Graduation.

By the time they get around to electrical subsystems, some firsties are shocked to discover their grade is short circuited causing them to abort and restart the astro lesson countdown. Most however are, sometimes against all odds, able to launch successfully.

“I love dragons. However, there is a reason why dragons (astro) have been feared for thousands of years. The dragon is the fearless, insurmountable, indestructible ruler of itself. Armed with only words and the sword equivalent of a toothpick, I have charged this dragon for the second time,” said C1C Emmanuelle Massey who majors in English.

So far this war has waged on far too long but I am still alive. I will fight and I will win. This dragon shall be slain. It does not know it, but words are its weakness and with my words I shall win. Fuzzy majors unite! We shall win this battle and uncover the golden bars that lie beneath the chest it guards so relentlessly!” - C1C Mahhad Nayyer

CSLIP

Cadets dive into deep end of cultural learning

Foreign language study is a mainstay at the Academy, but to really have the lessons since in and take root, sometimes it is best to dive head first into foreign culture. The Cadet Summer Language Immersion Program gives this opportunity to cadets by taking them to places around the world where they build upon what they learned from up to three years of language classes here.

This year’s list of CSLIP destinations ineluded Spain, Chile, Panama, Morocco, China, Ukraine, France and other countries. The program not only helps cadets to better learn the languages they study, it allows them to experience the culture of a different country and meet new people.

“I was placed with a family that did not speak English,” C1C Alyssa Van Baalen of

her trip to Nerja, Spain. “At first this was very daunting, but it ended up being incredibly beneficial for my Spanish speaking ability.”

Being able to improve upon language skills is only one part of the many valuable takeaways from a CSLIP immersion. C1C Kyle Schoonover’s immersion took place in Meknes, Morocco, during the month of Ramadan resulting in “the most rewarding cultural experience of my life.”

C1C Zach Saunders opportunity to walk along the Great Wall of China “will definitely be my most lasting memory of CSLIP,” he said. “The Great Wall is something that you hear and read about as a child but never imagine actually seeing it. Being there and climbing the wall put into perspective everything I had learned about it.”

Experiences like these provide an opportunity for in-depth learning and everlasting memories that cannot be taught or shared in a classroom. - C1C Kevin Cardenas

CQ Texts come, texts go r^H during semester shuffle

F%f|Olrom one ending comes a new beginning as the semester’s conclusion sees books bought and sold in a literary JL” cycle of life older than the Academy itself.

The Cadet Bookstore, located in Vandenberg Hall, serves as a convenient hub for this biannual attempt at recycling.

AAFES and the Texas Book Company operate the retail outlet where cadets can return most books after a semester of use. The store “generously” gives back money on books it can resell.

Cadet-to-cadet sales is another option that may net a few dollars more, but buyers beware - classes have been known to change editions without warning. Some cadets wanting to avoid the hassle of haggling discard, donate or pack away books.

Bookstore purchases offer safety as well. The texts it contains are certain to be the correct edition for Academy classes. Book prices can raise an eyebrow or two, but sometimes there || 1 are options for frugal-minded cadets.

“First semester, I bought like $700 of books. I used my own money... it was really expensive,” said C4C Joseph Tuss. “I bought them here first semester, but [now] I buy them some-

where else because it’s way cheaper.”

0Buying books, especially used, from e-tail stores can save hundreds of dollars. Seeking a fellow cadet who just finished the course is an option as well (better to pay a little extra to get a book from someone who aced the class!). However, some Academy classes require unique or custom books available fT | only here. Fortunately there is a convenient payroll deduction plan.

“The Academy makes us buy it, and if you don't buy it, [the money is] taken out of your account either way,” said C1C Royce Schertz. Electronic textbooks cost fractions of their physical counterparts and some students are excited about the prospects switching to an e-reader. C1C Tyler Heck uses an iPad for some of his classes.

“You have everything right there. It’s easy to take notes; you can highlight and copy it over into a notes section,” he said.

Whether buying or “byeing” textbooks, the cycle results in a litany of cadet complaints proportionate to the lightness of the wallets affected. The only way to please every cadet is to eliminate the use of textbooks and reading, but you don't need to be an Academy graduate to know this will never happen. - Polaris staff

CD Cadets knock out boxing, combatives

FSelf Defens

reshmen endure many challenges from large stacks of textbooks to grueling military training. Not only do four degrees have to study for weekly knowledge tests, they also learn how to duck.

Self-defense classes, boxing for men and combatives for women, must be taken by each new cadet. Emotions vary as each batch of eager, nervous and excited (possibly scared) freshmen gear up to let off steam and learn some new moves.

Boxing class provides a welcome break from the daily routine of freshman year for cadets like C4C Levi Hilgenhold of Cadet Squadron 20.

“I thought it would be a great chance to get out of the classroom and learn the technique to boxing, not to mention a great chance to relieve a little stress,” he said.

Others are thrilled to learn new techniques.

“I was excited about the class because I was going to learn some practical useful moves,” said C4C Tierra Franklin of Cadet Squadron 33.

Boxing teaches movement, breathing, offense and defense. After a few lessons, men put these points of instruction to use in a graded review.

“I liked being able to spar often with others in the class,” said C4C Trevor Rogers of Cadet Squadron 3. Combatives teaches similar skills, but is focused on techniques more useful to women.

“I felt that the combatives class teaches a lot about self-defense and fighting. Not to mention, it is really cool,” said C4C Kristina O’Sullivan of Cadet Squadron 15.

Most enjoy the classes and even those who hate the bruises and soreness that come with training emerge with new pride and confidence for putting the stressful experience behind them.

“The class definitely teaches the individual how to compose oneself under constant pressure (literally),” said C4C Pedro Barrientes of Cadet Squadron 16.

Demos guide cadets to academic path

With one semester down, the “dark ages” of winter months settle upon the Academy. Recognition seems to be the only thing on the minds of the Cadet Wing. However, even as anticipation grows every day closer to the start of this fourth class inflection point, academics is still a primary focus and safe haven for some cadets.

This is perhaps most evident on Majors’ Night, a biannual event held in the fall and spring semesters.

The second floor of Fairchild Hall was buzzing Feb. 27 despite the biting cold outside. Hundreds of freshman, undeclared sophomores and prep school students eagerly sought guidance to lead them toward a desired major.

“Majors' Night is a great

tool for people who have no idea what they want to major in,” said C4C Brandon Koltes, Cadet Squadron 13. Cadet Koltes is now majoring in systems engineering with a focus on aeronautical studies.

The Academy offers a labyrinth of academic choices and Majors’ Night provides teachers and upperclassmen to guide undecided cadets who want to explore deeper into the maze. For many, it is the first real opportunity to seek out majors that fit their scope.

“I definitely enjoyed Major’s Night. It helped me narrow down my choices because I was able to talk to multiple people in multiple majors,” said C4C Connor Watson, Cadet Squadron 15. Cadet Watson later went on to declare in foreign area studies.

As the night buzzed along, cadets were drawn into the shows each booth presented where they learned more about desired majors. A few made that final decision on what rollercoaster ride they wanted to board. - C4C Zachary Campbell

op quiz: how many planets have astronomers discovered orbiting other stars?

According to the website Exoplanet.eu, as of the 2014 Graduation Parade Day, 1,792 such planets—known as “exoplanets”—have been found.

Detection of these alien worlds has been made possible by modern charge coupled device cameras, similar to the ones in many cell phones. Digital cameras are much more sensitive than old film cameras, and so are much more efficient at measuring light from distant, faint stars. Capturing and studying variations in faint starlight is what astronomers need to identify exoplanets.

Many of the 1,792 known exo: planets have been discovered by

light years away

looking for the tell-tale “wobble” of the parent star caused by a planet’s orbit. This method was used by CICs Sarah Castro, Tim Cordeiro, Thomas Dickinson and Alex Lineberry to study a known exoplanet for their capstone.

The planet, designated “Tau Bootis b” when it was discovered in 1999, orbits a star 51 light-years from Earth. Cadets chose to study this exoplanet because it is easily observed, and so allowed them to test the ability of the Academy observatory’s 24-inch telescope to detect star “wobbles” due to orbiting exoplanets.

Detection of these wobbles requires a high-resolution spectrograph which, like a prism, splits star light into its component colors. The instrument separates visible light into more than 15,000 pieces of information. Once calibrated against a known emitting source, such as a neon lamp, the spectrograph can be used to create an image of light from stars.

Shifts in the expected position of

known features in a star’s spectrum can indicate the presence of an orbiting planet, and this is what cadet researchers found by studying light coming from Tau Bootis b.

“The students made tremendous strides with a brand new instrument, and paved the way for future cadet projects that may help confirm new scientific discoveries” said Dr. Devin Della-Rose, Academy Observatory director, and physics faculty mentor for this research.

The work continues in fall 2014 as C1C Rebecca Esselstein, the top astronautical engineering major in the Class of 2015, takes over.

“I am excited about working with the spectrograph because it is a real-life way to engage in my love of space and discover what is truly out there. I hope to gain valuable experience analyzing data and working as a part of a research team while simultaneously broadening my engineering background to include astronomy,” she said.

Cadets push past final exams for end-of-semester rewards

Every cadet looks forward to completion of finals. The major exams at the end of each semester are often the only things keeping the students from going home for winter break or summer leave. However, finals are an integral part of a cadet’s academic experience at the Academy and often are the difference between a very successful semester and a subpar one.

With the stakes raised, many cadets begin to feel pressure when they head into their tests.

“Finals are a game of inches. The margin of error is so small. One multiple-choice question short and we don’t quite make [the grade we want],” said C3C Lucas Brown.

Usually cadets will have to take at least three or four finals in a semester; some have as many as eight while others are lucky enough to have none. These tests range in subjects based on each individual cadet’s course load in a particular semester. The increased importance of the tests drives students to extreme measures to ensure they will do well on their exams.

“I study for finals by cramming long hours into the night and jamming as much knowledge into my brain as possible,” Brown said.

This strategy is shared by all classes, as it seems one can find cadets of all years studying into the early hours of the morning during finals week. “I’ll probably do my usual last minute cram sessions,” said C4C Chris Unger.

Finals can be very stressful, however many cadets look at them as the last barrier to a break, or even better, a promotion. This is especially true for firsties for whom second semester finals are the last barrier before commissioning, and doolies, who view second term finals as the only thing left in arguably the hardest year at the Academy. For these students, completing finals is especially sweet.

“I am really excited to finish up school and get ready to graduate,” said C1C Parker Quinn. “It’s weird to think that four years of hard work will come to an end so soon.”

Finals week may be one of the toughest for cadets, but completing it undoubtedly leaves them with a sense of accomplishment and relief.

ARMY WEEK

Army Week battle goes from dorms to Falcon Stadium

he conflict between Army and Air Force on the field of Falcon Stadium is merely the final clash in a week of skirmishes between cadets during Army Week.

West Point cadets on semester exchange to the Air Force Academy typically engage the freshmen of their host squadrons in a battle of pranks, one the freshmen usually win. The clash between CS-03’s freshmen and their exchange cadet, Leo St. Amour was no exception, according to C4C Caroline Cotton’s daily situation reports.

Day 1: St. Amour bangs on all our doors at 0500, blaring the Army fight song in the hallway.

Day 2: We take revenge by destroying his room - shaving cream on the mirrors, body wash on the counter. We thought a cot would suit him much better, so we took his bed, along with his clothes, shoelaces too. In lieu of uniforms, his new clothes were courtesy of our freshman squadron gymnast. One day he even decided to play the role of Superman complete with cape, complimented by metallic spandex.

Day 3: USMA cadets join forces and remove the doors of every one of their host squadron’s freshmen. “My door!” is all that passes through my head as I realize my door had been taken off its hinges and carefully placed themback in the frame so I didn’t know the difference.” - C4C Cotton. On top of the doors, he writes “Go Army” in shaving cream and dusts the floor with baby powder.

Day 4: Last day begins with a hall brawl: St.

Amour is fast, but not fast enough. We catch and tie him up, put him in the shower then spray shaving cream all over him. As a final “parting gift” before he goes back to USMA, we re-enact D-Day in his room - a pool full of water, fencing and sand all over. As the finishing touch, we place a board by the door so opening it causes a splash of water mirroring taking the beaches of Normandy.

“[St. Amour] held no grudge and was the greatest sport imaginable,” Cadet Cotton said. “He will always be remembered as a member of our squadron family and a brother in the profession of arms.”

C2C Ana Smith of CS-14, experienced the tradition from the Army perspective while on exchange to West Point. USMC freshmen “borrowed” all her clothes and left behind a pair of footie pajamas for the week.

“I got lucky because my Company’s mascot, the Barbarian, didn’t have a full body costume, so it wasn’t a good option for the plebes to leave me,” Cadet Smith said. “I think it was supposed to be embarrassing, but honestly the only thing better than a flight suit is footie pajamas.”

Cadet Smith endured “Commander in Chef’s” competitions with the plebes each day after noonmeal formation that included Chair Force Musical Chairs, stealth bombing (flying a paper airplane past a blind folded cadet) and a pie eating contest.

“There weren’t actually any really bad pranks pulled, but plebes wore my uniforms around for the rest of the week,” she said. - Polaris staff

RING DANCE

Class of2015 celebrates long-awaited milestone

ensions were high, and excitementcould hardly be contained on that cool and cloudy May day. The 23rd, a Friday, brought so much more than a graduation parade practice for the Class of 2015 and their dates - Ring Dance was finally here.

Women had a long day of hair, makeup and getting dressed. Men, on the other hand, seemed to pass the day with naps and video games. Rings were boxed up and taken to Mitchell Hall as hundreds of couples scattered across the Terrazzo for pictures. Every attendee of the night had brought out their best, and handsome couples seemed to fill every free space in the picturesque Air Gardens.

Dinner in Mitchell hall started with the entrance of the official party. Emcees C2C Angela Johnson and C2C Jacob Hernandez gave everyone the rundown for the night.

“I honestly didn’t even notice the food because my ring was sitting right in front of me. I was practically bursting with excitement because we didn’t get our ring until the end of the dinner,” said C2C Kathryn Lowry.

After the guest speaker, 1982 graduate Susan Grant, and a short speech by Academy Superintendent Lt. Gen. Michelle Johnson, the ring christening finally happened.

Couples around the room took part in the tradition ring exchange by kissing their dates or opted for the

more modest exchange. Finally, all members of the Class of 2015 had their rings. Some ladies, like C2C Melissa Baldauff left the dining hall with two new rings. Her new fiance, C2C Patrick Dunkel, proposed during the ring christening.

“I proposed during Ring Dance because we had everythingfigured out that we wanted to get figured out before getting married. It seemed like a romantic, special night that was perfect for the engagement. I was nervous all around, but the best part of my night was when she said yes,” Cadet Dunkel said.

The class was then dismissed to the dance in Arnold Hall, where an open bar and a dance floor awaited eager guests. After the night was over, friends piled into cars and scattered across the mountains of Colorado for some well-deserved relaxation time with their best friends.

“Our house was in Winter Park, and we had really good company. It was close to a lot of stuff to do, too. Easily thebest part, though, was getting my ring,” said C2C Alisha Maskarenas.

For some, the weekend was incredibly memorable, and for others it was less so, butalmost every group was guaranteed to have one of the best weekends of their USAFA careers. What it all came down to, though, was the ring - a symbol of the last and final year at USAFA, and the cadet’s commitment to something greater than themselves. -

ACADEMY IDOL

Cadets express themselves

From earthbound civil engineers to rocket scientists, the Academy is known for training cadets to join the most technologically advanced Air Force in the world.

That doesn't mean there is no appreciation for the arts though.

Show Choir, Cadet Orchestra, Drum and Bugle Corps, Cadet Chorale and Blue Bards each have a slightly different focus, but all offer opportunities for artistic expression.

“I was so bogged down and stressed out by everything at the Academy, and I wanted to do something that was just purely for fun,” said C2C Hillary Redmond who joined Show Choir her sophomore year. “I really enjoyed the shows and the community outreach; when we would perform at veterans’ homes and hospitals, they would tear up and be so proud of us. I loved representing the Academy in that way.”

Similarly, the Blue Bards put on the plays and musicals biannually.

“I got involved because it’s a good stress reliever, you get to work with other people, have fun, and it’s another medium to communicate to others and express some kind of truth,” said C2C Katie Kessler, conductor for the Blue Bards’ production of The Drowsy Chaperone. “It’s also something totally

through performing arts

different that people don’t usually get at USAFA. Being able to work in another area, see it from another perspective as conductor, made me appreciate the amount of work it takes to put a show like this on.”

The orchestra and chorale offer a more classical approach to continue developing musical expertise.

“The end of the year concert was a lot of fun. It was nice to be able to perform the pieces that we’ve been working on this past year in front of an audience,” said C3C Gautam Venkataraman who has been in orchestra for two years. “If I wasn’t in the orchestra, I probably would have let my playing slip because of all the things that get in the way here.”

Drum and Bugle is one of the most popular outlets for musically inclined cadets. The largest of the musical clubs leads the fans at Falcon football games and takes part in parades around the nation.

“I m in D&B because I liked to play drums; I liked the chance to keep playing while I was here, and the people that were in it,” said C4C Travis Edwards.

Carving time out of an already busy cadet schedule to invest in music and the arts requires dedication. Each participant however, shares a passion for performance and a need lor an escape from the daily rigors of the Academy and these clubs help them succeed.

BURN SCAR

Cadet volunteers assist with in Waldo Canyon recovery

Cadets are using remnants of the Waldo Canyon fire to slow down the aftermath of the fire.

The Waldo Canyon fire burned 18,247 acres in 2012, including 100 acres on the Academy, while theClass of 2016 inprocessed and began basic training.

Today, thousands of acres in the nearby mountains are scarred wastelands, creating secondary effects such as flooding and erosion.

Fifty cadets ascended into Weilington Gulch May 20, to build erosion dams that act as speed bumps for water flowing down the gulch during flash flooding. With no vegetation in place, there’s little to slow down water when microbursts and sustained rains pummel the burnscar’s slopes. The rainwater picks up speed heading downhill, taking topsoil and sediment with it, causing flash flooding in Manitou Springs and western Colorado Springs in 2013.

“It’s surreal. It was nothing like you see on TV,” said C4C Haji Dunn of CS-28, as he looked over the burned hillsides. “But we’re here just to help the community and show the community that the Air Force Academy is still working in support of the recovery efforts.”

Arriving on the dusty slopes, the cadet volunteers were tasked to gather burned logs and brace the logs on hillsides with wooden stakes. After each log was in place, cadets would gather “slash” - broken twigs and charred sticks to be fitted under and upslope of the log dam, and then fill in the gaps with dirt. Finally, a cadet, like Dunn, would bring native grass seeds to sow, to foster short-term vegetation growth, all in the hopes of bringing life back to the burned hillsides.

This is the fourth time cadets have organized to work on the burn scar. Previous work has taken place on Ormes Peak, Blodgett Peak, and the Rampart Reservoir. - John

Then it takes desire, determination, discipline, and self-sacrifice. And finally, it takes a great deal of love, fairness and respect for your fellow man. Put all these together, and even ifyou don’t win, how can you lose?”

He is a constant reminder that there are wolves in the land.. .The sheep would much rather have the sheepdog cash in his fangs, spray paint himself white, and go, ‘Baa.’...Until the wolf shows up.” - Lt Col Dave Grossman, US Army retired

Falcon Fans

Classes from 7:30 a.m. to 3:23

p.m. each day, tough athletic standards, rigorous military training: cadets at the Air Force Academy have a lot on their plate and that can leave them very stressed and burned out. One great release is attending Falcon sporting events.

“I love Air Force sports!” said C3C D’Angelo Turner. “My favorite part is seeing classmates that I have friendships with performing well in their sports. That’swhat’s so special about the Academy. Since the Cadet Wing is so small compared to other universities, we have a tight bond and it’s as if everyone knows each other.”

Air Force fields 27 varsity sports teams, ranging from very popular sports, like football, basketball, and ice hockey, to less mainstream sports such as fencing, water polo and rifle. Certain sporting events are mandatory for the entire wing to attend, but many cadets enjoy giving up their own free time to cheer on classmates.

Fourth Class Cadets, who are often stranded at the Academy and face extra stressors on top of regular cadet duties including training sessions, knowledge tests, and extra inspections just to name a few, espedally enjoy attending academy sporting events.

“I love going and watching the different sports here at the Academy because it's a place to get away and get your mind off of the stressors of Academy life,” said C4C Philip Strunk. “Plus, it's cool to see our teams go out there [and give it their all] and show them what we’re all about.”

Not only do Falcon sports have a positive effect on the Cadet Wing’s morale, but those competing for Air Force also love the support.

“Having the home court advantage is always a good thing, but especially when you go to the Academy,” said C3C Maggie Sherrill, starting outside hitter on the volleyball team. “There is no other place with fans like cadets, it’s intimidating if you’re on the other team.”

With teams to cheer on throughout the year and a great variety of sports to follow, there is never a dull moment as an Air Force Falcon fan! - C4C Phillip Resnick

Falcon Fans

Falcon baseball turned in one of the most successful seasons in recent years, posting a 20-33 overall record and 10-20 mark in Mountain West Conference play, the team’s winningest season since 2002.

Among the highlights this season, the Falcons took a 2-1 series win over Navy at the 2014 Freedom Classic in February at Grainger Stadium in Kinston, NC. Air Force pitchers combined to strike out 27 batters in 26 innings and held the Midshipmen to a 185 batting average.

The Falcons were 4-2 against all ranked teams. They went 1-2 against #24 Fresno State in March and swept #20 UNLV in April. It was the first time in Air Force history that the team swept a ranked opponent.

Air Force fielded a perfect 1.000 in 72 chances in a weekend series at Nevada, March 21-23. Based on the Air Force Academy historical archives, it is the first documented errorless three-game series in school history.

The team landed two players on the 2014 All-Mountain West Baseball Team. Senior right-handpitcher Cameron White and freshman outfielder Tyler Jones earned secondteam all-conference honors.

White led the Mountain West with 94 strikeouts and was fourth with 98.2 innings pitched. The Colleyville, Texas, native had a 3.92 ERA, which was the lowest at Air Force since 1983. White currently ranks fourth all-time at Air Force in career innings pitched (324.1) and strikeouts (256).

Jones capped off a standout rookie season, leading the Falcons with a .344 batting average. The freshman from Coppell, Texas, was among the Mountain West Top 10 in nine offensive categories including, average, slugging (.526), hits (66), doubles (19) and hit by pitches (11). Jones was first alltime amongst Air Force freshmen in hit by pitches, second in doubles and third in hits.

The future looks bright for the Falcons with 14 freshmen and 1 newcomer added to the team. Air Force featured one of youngest teams in the conference. The Falcons were tied with Fresno Stateand San Jose State for the most freshmen on its roster. The team started at least four freshmen in 35 of 53 games and started five in 12 games this year.

Men’s Basketball

Air Force knewhow to celebrate senior day. The Falcons defeated Boise State, 64-61, in overtime March 8 in Clune Arena to close out Mountain West Conference regular season action.

Senior Chase Kammerer, the lone senior on the roster, started and helped the Falcons play with energy and enthusiasm that had been lacking the last few home games. He finished with four points, five rebounds and tied his career high with five assists in a career-high 31 minutes.

The Falcons entered the game not having held a lead in its last two home games and quickly ended that trend with its opening basket, a three-pointer by DeLovell Earls. Air Force took the lead at the 16:54 mark, 8-6, on a three-pointer by Kamryn Williams and held it the rest of the half. The Falcons took a 30-23 lead into the break.

Boise State opened the second half with a 10-3 run to tie the score, 35-35, with 14:02 left and the two teams exchanged the lead four times with two ties from that point. The overtime,

however, was all Air Force. Max Yon scored seven of his 11 points in the extra period, including a jumper and three-point play in the final 50 seconds to secure the win for the Falcons. His three-point play with 23 seconds left gave the Falcons a 64-58 lead before Boise State closed the game with a threepointer in the final second.

Kamryn Williams led the Falcons with a season-high 22 points and a career-best 13 rebounds to notch his fifth-career double-double and third this season. He is the first Falcon since 2007 to have three double-doubles in a season. Yon added seven rebounds and two assists while Tre’ Coggins chipped in with 10 points before fouling out at the end of regulation.

The Falcons hit four-of-five field goals in overtime and finished the game shooting 42.3 percent from the field. Air Force out-rebounded Boise State, 40-32, and held the Broncos to 35.3 percent shooting, including a two-of-seven clip in the extra session. Air Force also had 12 assists and just 12 turnovers.

The Falcons improved to 12-17 overall and 6-12 in the Mountain West. The Falcons won their second straight senior night game, as they knocked off nationally-ranked New Mexico last year. The overtime win is the first for the Falcons at home since defeating Radford, 52-47, on Nov. 19, 2007.

Women's Basketball

A late rally fell short as the 11thseeded Air Force women’s basketball team fell to sixth-seed San Diego State, 63-56, in the opening round of the 2014 Reese’s Mountain West Women’s Basketball Championship, held at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, NV.

Junior Jimi Blagowsky led the Falcons with 18 points, while senior Camille Thompson, added 12 points, six rebounds and four assists.

San Diego State scored the first five points of the game, but Air Force took the lead with an 11-2 run which ineluded three baskets from long range. The Falcons led by as many as six points in the opening half, but the Aztecs battled back, cutting the deficit to 21-20 with just under eight minutes on the clock.

While Air Force pushed its lead back to 27-22 with 5:46 remaining in the first half, the Falcons went cold over the

next four minutes, allowing San Diego State to regain the lead. The Aztecs held a four-point advantage in the final two minutes of the quarter before Air Force cut the margin to 33-31 at the half.

The Aztecs continued to pull away in the second period, pushing its lead to 50-40 with 8:29 remaining. However, the Falcons went on a 10-0 run, capped off with backto-back three-pointers from freshman Kelly Lujan and Blagowsky, as Air Force tied the game with 5:21 on the clock. San Diego State scored the next nine points to regain the lead before closing out the victory.

While Air Force (1-28) shot 50 percent in the opening half, the Falcons knocked down just over 29 percent of their shots in the second period. Air Force also attempted just seven free throws, including none in the second half, but knocked down five of its eight three-pointers in the final stanza.

“It’s the best game we played all year,” said Air Force head coach Andrea Williams. “It was great team energy, effort and focus from the tip. I was proud of how we came out both halves.” - Athletic Media Relations

Senior Stephen Bittner and sophomore Jacob Berggren captured titles and Air Force boxing earned a second-place finish in the team standings at the 39th National Collegiate Boxing Association Championships

April 5.

“I remember winning the national team title in 2012, and the thought of doing it again, with a team of guys who’ve shared so much boxing pain, would’ve been tremendous,” Bittner said. “At the end of the day, though, we came like champs, we fought like champs, and we held our heads high because that’s one of the biggest things coach has taught us over the past four years - give it your all, and be proud of the effort.”

Competing in the 125-pound division, Bittner earned his first NCBA title by decision over Army’s Tyler Payne. Berggren claimed his first national title two bouts later, winning the 139-pound final with a decision over Nevada’s JJ Mariano. For his efforts over the weekend, Berggren was awarded the Academy’s Boxer of the Week honors.

Army won its sixth team title in seven years, while Air Force finished second and Navy took third.

Berggren defeated Coast Guard’s Trevor Pennyfeather and California’s Gerald Santos in early rounds. Bittner’s path included decision wins over UC Davis’ Mac Pham and Washington’s Alan Vu.

“I’m blessed with a great God, a supportive family and an

incredible girlfriend in Clara Heffernan who was there for me every step of the way,” Bittner said. “To earn me the belt, I needed a vision for where I wanted to go, the belief that I could get there, and the tireless hard work necessary to ensure I succeeded. It all came together, God, family, vision, and hard work, and now the belt speaks for itself.”

Two other Air Force boxing team members earned silver medals. Sophomore Mateus Arcano dropped a close 112-pound decision to UNLV’s Vinh Thai and senior James Monk fell in another narrow decision UC Davis’ Colin Schmidt at 156 pounds.

Arcano received a bye into the semifinals where he defeated Army’s Tyler Croft. Monk won by technical knockout over his first round opponent, Tylik Guilford of Shippensburg, and made the finals with a win over Lock Haven’s Zachary Rice.

Five additional Falcons competed in the semifinal round. Freshman Adam Sumait lost his 119-pound decision to Army’s Alan Alvarado, while senior Sean Cork fell in his 147-pound bout to Navy’s Andre Moorehead. Senior Denis Vorobyov concluded his collegiate career with a refereestopped loss to Penn State’s Corey Slosburg at 165 pounds, while junior Brandon Pitts was decisioned by Coast Guard's Taylor Tennyson at 175 pounds. Freshman Laurynas Galdikas lost to Army’s Faaoloataga Pulou in the 195-pound weight division.

Boxing captured its 34th regional title in the last 35 years at the NCBA West Championships in Reno, NV, March 15. Monk was named outstanding boxer and the Falcons claimed four individual regional championship titles. - Polaris staff

Wyoming finished second with 65 points, while Western State (third, 75 points), Colorado State (fourth, 81) and Colorado School of Mines (fifth, 91) rounded out the top five. Metro State finished sixth with 167 points, while Northern Colorado finished seventh with 224 points.

The event also featured dual meet scoring between the Division I teams with Air Force defeating Colorado State (21-35), Northern Colorado (15-50) and Wyoming (20-35).

Air Force earned the top-two individual finishes in the men’s 5K race, as Hawkins won with a time of 14:55.10 and classmate Isaiah Bragg finished second in 14:56.90. Junior Riley Coates (sixth, 15:05.20) and sophomore Patrick Corona (eighth, 15:08.00) also finished within the top eight.

With 53 total points, the women outscored the other teams by 22 points. Host Colorado State finished second with 75 points, while Western State (third, 80 points), Metro State

(fourth, 98) and Wyoming (fifth, 100) completed the top five, while NorthernColorado and Colorado School of Mines rounded out the field with respective sixth- (117 points) and seventh-place (170) finishes.

In dual meet scoring, Air Force posted a 3-0 mark against the Division I teams from Colorado State (22-33), Northern Colorado (20-40) and Wyoming (20-39).

On the women’s 5K course, Everson won the race in a time of 18:02.00, while freshman Lindy Long placed eighth (18:34.70) in her collegiate debut.

Hawkins’ and Everson’s performances earned athlete of the week honors from both Air Force andthe Mountain West Conference.

The season opener proved to be bothteam’s best performance and each ended the year placing fifth at the conference championships. The men’s team reached 24th in the national rankings and earned an at-large bid to the NCAA championships in Terre Haute, IN, Nov 23.

Bragg paced the men to a 20th-place team finish at the championships. Under cold, windy conditions at the LaVern Gibson Championship Cross Country Course, Bragg paced the Falcons through the muddy field with a modified 10K time of 30:57.10 (the course was shortened by 110 meters due to standing water near the start line). His finish was the program's best individual placement at the national meet since 2003 and the second-highest finish since 1995. - Athletic Media Relations

Junior Alexander Chiang became the men’s foil first runnerup. Chiang advanced to the semifinals after finishing 8-2 in pools. His opponent in the semis was Stephan Aman from Stanford. The two fought a fast-paced bout that ended in a 15-10 victory for the Air Force junior. Chiang then would go against 2012 Olympian Alexander Massialas (Stanford) who was undefeated in pools. In a hard-fought fight to the finish, Chiang lost the bout 15-8.

In the men’s epee pools, sophomore James Salem finished in seventh place. Salem ends the season with a 26-14 record. Freshman Elias Johnson finished in ninth place, and sophomore Robert Chado finished 12th. Johnson and Chado end the season 12-25 and 11-20, respectively.

Army football will be glad to see Anthony LaCoste graduate this year after the senior tailback racked up three touchdowns and 273 yards during the 42-28 victory over the service academy rival Nov. 2 in Falcon Stadium.

LaCoste ended up two yards shy of Chad Hall’s school record of 275 yards rushing in a single game. His first touchdown came on a 73-yard scamper. After bolting through a hole opened by his offensive line, LaCoste made an Army safety miss to reach the end zone and tie the game at 7-7.

His next score came at the end of a 78-yard sprint. Air Force quarterback Nate Romine pitched out to LaCoste who burst into free space and scored 10 yards ahead of the nearest defender. This gave the Falcons a 28-21 lead. His next visit to the end zone came on a mere one-yard run, but it gave Air Force a lead it wouldn’t relinquish.

Despite surrendering 28 points, the Falcons can be proud of their defensive and special teams performances. Army’s rushing attack, #1 in the NCAA at the time with 336 yards per game, was held under 100 in thesecond half.Defensive linemen Robert Green and Jordan Pierce each chased down

Army’s signal caller for an eight-yard sack.

“Green played really well,” Air Force head coach Troy Calhoun said. “Eight-yard plays in the first half were held to two-yard gains.”

A defensive stop in the first half led to a key play by special teams as well. On fourth down with 12 yards to go, Army's kick met Nick Fitzgerald’s hand for a block. Falcon Gavin McHenry collected the loose ball and ran 24 yards to give Air Force possession inside Black Knights territory. Air Force's Garrett Brown ran 14 yards on fourth and two to score.

Army’s only touchdown of the second half was set up by a muffed punt return by the Falcons. With the score 35-28 and less than six minutes, Romine responded connecting with Brown for passes of 11 and 29 yards to set up the final score.

“We didn’t want to be content,” Brown said. “We didn't want to play to not lose.”

A 28-10 loss to Navy in Annapolis, MD, kept Air Force from regaining the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy. The midshipmen easily handled Army, 34-7 in a game at West Point, NY. Air Force finished the season 2-10.

An opening day victory over Colgate saw Broam Hart and Jon Lee surpass 100 yards on the ground. This was the first time since 2009 two Falcons ran over the century mark. Trailing 0-7, Air Force blitzed Colgate for 38 straight points despite losing its starting quarterback to injury. - Athletic Media Relations

Air Force golf fired a final round team score of 279 (-5) April 27 and tied the school’s best finish ever in a conference tournament for the second consecutive year with a fourth-place finish at the 2014 Mountain West Championships in Tuscon, AZ.

The event was held at the par-71, 7,144-yard Catalina Course at OMNI Tucson National. Air Force, which also finished fourth at the 1993 Western Athletic Conference Championships, posted a three-round total of 861 (+9), its best score ever at a conference tournament.

Individually, senior Kyle Westmoreland led the Falcons with a three-round total of two-under par 211, good for a fourth place finish, the best by a Falcon at a conference tournament since Judd McGlohn won the 1985 WAC Championships. Westmoreland fired an even-par 71 on Sunday for his second straight top 10 result at the MW Championships.

Fellow senior Philip Colwell earned his first career top 10 finish at the MW Championships with a team-best 67 in his final collegiate round. Colwell, who posted the second-best score among the 55 players on Sunday, finished in a tie for seventh place with a total of even-par 213. Air Force placed two players in the Mountain West’s top 10 for the first time in the 15-year history of the tournament.

Senior Jack Howard (220) and freshman Sunwoo Choi (221) finished in a tie for 22nd and 27th respectively, while senior Todd Berglund tied for 33rd with a three-round total of 223. Berglund shot a one-under par 70 and Howard an evenpar 71 in their final collegiate round.

“We feel like our seniors have really worked hard to elevate Air Force golf in the conference and across the nation,” said

Head Coach George Koury. “It was great to see them go out on a high note. We are proud of how our guys competed during all three rounds this weekend.”

New Mexico (279) won its second consecutive team title, defeating San Diego State (281) by three strokes. UNLV (280) placed third.

Air Force began its season winning the hosting and winning the Gene Miranda Falcon Invitational on the Eisenhower Golf Club Blue Course Sept. 8-9. The Falcons shot 278 to best Texas-El Paso (288), Colorado (292) and 13 other teams. Senior Kyle Westmoreland (204) led all competitors followed by Sophomore Matthew Dunn (209).

Westmoreland also won the Patriot All-America Golf Invitational on the Gold Course at The Wigwam in Litchfield Park, AZ, Dec 31. The cadet, one of 84 participants in the toumament, defeated University of Texas senior Toni Hakula on the sixth playoff hole after each finished 54 holes with a fiveunder par total of 205.

Leading by one shot after the second round, Westmoreland fired a one-under par 69 in the final round and birdied the 18th hole to force the playoff.

“I can’t say enough about Kyle,” said coach Koury. “Chris (Wilson, AFA assistant coach) and I are very proud of him. His accomplishments on the course are amazing, but the way he represents the Academy on a daily basis is unmatched. This is by far the biggest win in the history of our program.”

In cooperation with the Folds of Honor Foundation, each participant in the tournament represented a fallen service member. Westmoreland played for Air Force Maj Lucas Gruenther, an F-16 pilot stationed at Aviano Air Base, Italy, and a 2003 graduate of the Air Force Academy, who was killed on Jan. 28, 2013 during a training mission over the Adriatic Ocean. Major Gruenther was a team manager for the golf team all four years at the Academy. - Athletic Media Relations

The lOth-ranked Air Force men’s gymnasties team scored a 418.200 to finish sixth in the evening session of the NCAA National Qualifier April 10, in Ann Arbor, MI. The Falcons, making their fourth straight team appearance at the national meet, accounted for four top-10 finishes.

Junior Nick Gaudlip picked up the Falcons’ best individual event finish of the night, as he tied for fourth on the high bar with a score of 14.800. Gaudlip was one of three Falcons to place within the top half of the field on that event, as freshman Tim Wang and junior Skyler Awisus tied for 11th (14.400) and 15th (14.250), respectively.

Wang, who finished fourth in the all-around with an 83.650, also paced the Falcons with a top-10 finish on the pommel horse, as he tallied his second-highest score of the season (15.000) to place seventh. Senior Nick Owen joined Wang among the top half of the field on the pommel horse, tying for 17th following a score of 14.200.

Sophomore Denis Aurelius and junior Gared Chapman accounted for another pair of top-10 finishes, as they represented the Falcons among the top of the standings on the

floor exercise and still rings, respectively. Aurelius reached the 15-point mark for the second time in three weeks, scoring a 15.150 to finish sixth on the floor, while Chapman tied for ninth on the rings behind a score of 14.700.

Chapman also paced the Falcon on the vault, tying for 15th with a score of 14.700 - his second-highest vault score of the season.

Junior Greg Chaput and Josh Ramos tied for 16th on the parallei bars with matching scores of 14.350. Wang became the Academy’s first All-American on the pommel horse - and the program’s first in any event since 2008 - after finishing fourth on that apparatus during the individual event finals April 12.

After finishing 10th on the pommel horse during last night’s event prelims, Wang returned to center stage at Michigan’s Crisler Center for the event finals - the first Falcon to advance to the third night of national competition since 2008. Wang earned a 14.800 from the judges, which was fourth among the 10-competitor field.

Women’s gymnastics set a new program standard on the uneven bars. Picking up a fourth-place finish during the team finals of the 2014 USA Gymnastics Collegiate National Championships April 12.

Backed by scores of 9.875 from junior Lindsay Ebel, senior Linnaea Hance and classmate Katie Hawthorne, the Falcons tallied a team score of 49.300 to better the previous mark of 48.925 set last season. The trio of Ebel, Hance and Hawthorne all used career-best marks to tie for third on the bars, while junior Alexandra Stych tied for seventh with a personal-best 9.850 and senior Jessica Hanner matched her career-high of 9.825 during Air Force’s record-setting score.

Air Force hockey once again put in a strong season in 2013-2014 finishing third in Atlantic Hockey despite significant injuries to the core of their defense.

The team’s record of 2114-4 earned a top four finish for the eighth straight year, a program and conference record.

This is the second time in program history Air Force has won 20 or more games in the regular season. Three of those 21 wins, a crosstown rivalry and downing two ranked opponents, stand out above the rest.

Air Force topped Colorado College 3-1 on the Tigers homeice at the World

Arena Nov. 19 to win the Falcons the inaugural Pikes Peak Trophy. The game honors John Matchefts who died in 2013. Matchefts coached at Colorado College as well as the Academy.

“It’s a huge statement for the program,” said senior goaltender Jason Torf who had 34 saves in the match. “We are on the rise and teams around college hockey are starting to take notice.”

Air Force has tallied three wins in the last six meetings with Colorado College, historically a power program.

The next two wins were even more impressive as the Falcons took care of two ranked teams at the Ledyard Bank Classic in Hanover, NH, Dec. 29 and 30.

Game one of the tournament was against 16th-ranked Northeastern. Falcon Mitch Torrel led the way with two goals in a decisive 5-2 victory. The win put Air Force in the finals against 5thranked Providence.

Torf was outstanding again making 29 saves and goals from Torrel, Chad Demers and Tony gave the Falcons a 3-2 win. This was the sixth time in the last seven seasons the Falcons have knocked off a top five team. It was also the first regular season tournament title for Air Force since 2004.

“Those wins propelled us into the second half of the season and gave us confidence moving forward into the heart of our conference play,” said Torrel who was named tournament most valuable player. Torf and Cole Gunner were named to the all-tournament team.

Back-to-back wins over Army, 3-1 and 4-2, at West Point Jan. 10 and 11 were significant too.

“Got your back” has come to mean more than protecting a teammate’s blind side for Air Force lacrosse. It’s a message that propelled the team to chase success on the field, but also represented a connection beyond the sport itself.

The team’s outlook was bright at the onset of the year. The coaching staff, led by Head Coach Eric Seremet, was rooted in its fourth season together; four veteran seniors, Kyle Cassady, Mike Crampton. Bryan Price and Erik Smith, returned as captains; and the men were utilizing brand new facilities. Their toughest opposition would soon come from off-the-field challenges however.

The federal government shutdown curtailed teams operations in pre-season. Coach Eric Seremet and his staff were indefinitely furloughed, planned games were cancelled and budget cuts put the program’s existence in jeopardy.

Then, days into the shutdown, tragedy struck. The Seremet family was involved in a fatal car accident that killed Seremet’s wife, Sonia. When the shutdown ended, Seremet and his two daughters, ages 2 and 4, remained in the hospital, absent from their usual spot on the field. A team once filled with promise now found itself navigating through a course of sudden obstacles.

Senior leadership stepped up to the challenge. Three seasons ago, the team implemented a system in which the roster was split into six “tribes,” each representing one of the tribes of the Iroquois Confederacy that founded the sport of lacrosse. Seniors Frank Martin, Matt Puleo, Tyler Hanley, Crampton, Price and Smith led each tribe assuming responsibility for guiding the players under them.

Responding to the shutdown, the seniors coached, juniors facilitated and sophomores and freshman persisted. When the accident occurred, the team circled together to help with

meals, take care of the girls and set up a family fund. Upon the return of assistant coaches Rob Koehler and Bill Wilson, preparations for the next faceoff were already flowing.

Seremet, with his two daughters besides him. tried to maintain his composure from hisusual spot on the practice field as he watched the team synchronize before his sunglass clad eyes for the first time since before the accident.

On field success began with the fall scrimmage against Notre Dame. The Falcon’s offense, led by Smith and Crampton, trumped the Irish 10-6. Shortly thereafter, Smith became the first player in Air Force history to turn pro after getting drafted by Major Feague Lacrosse’s Boston Cannons.

The regular season started off bumpy with a string of wins and losses, but the Falcons eventually found their stride and banked six straight W’s. Crampton was named Air Force Athlete of the Week and East Coast Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week four times, but was hardly the only player to make headlines.

Senior Tommy McKee was also named ECAC Offensive Player of the Week, Price and junior Kyle O'Brien were named ECAC Specialists of the Week.

A 16-8 win against 1 lth-ranked Fairfield in the Falcons’ final home game assured the program would see its most successful season since 1995. McKee scored five goals, Crampton three, and Smith and Cassady had two of their own. Junior Keith Dreyer also rose to the occasion with two goals and three assists.

The team clinched a spot in the ECAC tournament in the following days, was featured in national news, and Seremet and Crampton earned top conference honors for Coach and Offensive Player of the Year.

Seremet credits his players for emerging as leaders in a time when the team was rediscovering its identity. Likewise, players credit Seremet for remaining resilient in a time of personal trauma. “Got your back” became the means for overcoming adversity as coaches and players shared the season’s burdens as the team experienced a meteoric rise. - C4C Alex Lee

Air Force’s Meredith Carpentier earned allAmerican status after the 2014 NCAA Rifle Championships at Murray State University, KY, March 15.

The junior finished 13th with an individual air rifle score of 588. This was Carpentier’ s second trip to the NCAAs.

Carpentier was one of the team’s highest marksmen throughout the season, helping her team to a 10-7 record and a second-place finish in the conference championships. She earned three gold and two bronze medals at the 2013 Winter Air Gun Championships and was the best collegiate shooter with a finals score of 1,239.

“She came out of that match with more medals than anyone, and qualified to go to Munich to shoot against thebest shooters in the world,” said coach Launi Meili.

On the international scene, she was one of the United States’ top shooters in women’s 10m air rifle at the 2014 Bavarian Airgun Championships in Munich, Germany, as a member of the USA Shooting Team.

Team highlights for the season include a second-place-finish at the President's Trophy Match in Annapolis, MD, Nov. 2, against sister academies: Army, Navy and Coast Guard. Air Force scored 5,800 points in the match. In the NCAA four-man scoring, Air Force finished with an aggregate 4,649, just five points behind Army’s 4,654 first-place score. The Naval Academy finished third with 4,609 points, followed by the Coast Guard with 4,435 points.

Both the Air Force and Army smallbore and air rifle squads kept the scoring

close as Air Force scored a 2,303-2,349 insmallbore and 2,346-2,349 in air rifle for the final team scores 4,649-4,654.

Air Force also placed second place in the Patriot Rifle Conference’s inaugural smallbore and air rifle championship matches in Columbus, OH. The final team scores were: Alaska-Fairbanks, 1st (4702); Air Force, 2nd (4649); Texas Christian, 3rd (4647); Ohio State, 4th (4639); and Nevada-Reno, 5th (4565).

Air Force had two team members with high scores in both matches. In air rifle, Carpentier shot a 592 and David Higgins was the team leader in smallbore with a 581.

The team competed in the 2014 NCAA Qualifier at TCU in Fort Worth, TX, where Air Force lost by only 10 points, 4660-4650. Carpentier was the Falcons’ top shooter in each discipline, recording an 1,172 total for smallbore and air rifle. Higgings and Tyler Rico both recorded an 1,164 total for the two disciplines. - Athletic Media Relations

Men's Soccer

Freshman Ryan Ward and senior Brian Klazura scored while freshman goalie

Jake Schenk had a career-high 12 saves to lead Air Force men’s soccer to a 2-1 vietory over Houston Baptist Nov. 14 in the first round of the 2013 WAC Tournament at Cadet Soccer Stadium.

Klazura scored the game-winner on a penalty kick with 3:33 remaining in regulation time after being hauled down in the box by HBU’s George Kelley, resulting in a red card. Houston Baptist goalie Kevin Suarez dove to his left but Klazura placed his shot behind Suarez for his second goal of the season.

After a scoreless first half that saw HBU outshoot Air Force 10-2, the Falcons thought they had taken a 1-0 lead in the 61st minute when freshman Blake Elder gathered the ball after having his shot blocked and fired a rocket past Suarez. However, after a lengthy discussion between the referee and assistant referee, offsides was called on Air Force. Two minutes later, Air Force junior Matt Payne had a shot that got behind Suarez but Sebastian Henke swept the ball off the goal line for the save.

Ward finally put the Falcons on the board in the 66th minute when Suarez cleared the ball from the top of box right to Ward, who took a couple of dribbles and sent a shot that bounced once before going into the empty net. It was Ward’s

team-leading fourth goal of the season.

“Ryan’s composure on that goal was brilliant,” said Air Force head coach Doug Hill. “He realized he had some time and took full advantage of it. That was a tremendous way for our team to come back after the goal was called back.”

The Huskies (9-7-2) battled back and peppered Schenk with shot after shot, including a flurry of four shots on goal in an eight-second span in the 71st minute.

Schenk made the save of the game in the 79th minute stopping a point blank shot in a one-on-one situation.

Schenk recovered from allowing a game-tying goal to make another tough save just seconds before Klazura broke free behind the Husky defense and was pulled down for the PK. Schenk then made two more saves in the final three minutes to preserve the victory.

“Jake was nothing short of outstanding today,” said Hill. “The way to win a championship is with a championship keeper and he is playing like one right now.”

Klazura and Payne led the Falcons with four shots apiece. The Huskies held a 28-12 advantage in total shotsand 13-3 in shots on goal.

“Despite the number of shots they took, our defense marked their scorers very well,” said Hill. “Caleb Downey was excellent in organizing the defense all game. We need to rest for tomorrow’s game but I hope we can rely on our depth and resiliency against Seattle.”

Air Force’s season ended the next with a 2-0 loss to topseeded Seattle University.

Air Force women’s soccer endedthe 2013 with a bang, erupting for a seasonhigh three goals in a 3-1 win over Wyoming Nov. 1 at the Cadet Soccer Stadium. The Falcons finished the season with a 3-13-2 overall record and 2-7-1 record in Mountain West play. Wyoming dropped to 7-10-3, 4-4-2.

Air Force got a pair of goals from sophomore forward Ally Swift and a late insurance goal by freshman MF/F Maddie Lundberg. Wyoming got its goal from forward Lucie McDowell.

Swift, who finished as Air Force’s leading scorer with three goals, scored in the 16th and 28th minute. Freshman defender Meredith Reisinger assisted on the first score and senior Kaleigh Moses assisted on the second.

After McDowell’s goal in the 56th minute made it a 2-1 ballgame, Lundberg scored in the 72nd minute with freshman Kaylee Shalongo assisting on the score.

Air Force reached a number of milestones on an emotional senior night. TheFalcons reached its most wins in Mountain West play since 2002 and had its most points since 1999. The win snapped a 10 match losing streak to Wyoming and was the most goals scored in a conference game since the 3-0 win over Wyoming in 2002.

Kelly Stambaugh capped off her career with five saves in goal. The senior finished her four years at Air Force with 5,804 minutes in goal, setting a new school record.

Men's Swimming Sc Diving

A pair of diving champions and 10 Academy record setting swims helped Air Force men’s swimming and diving finish third at the 2014 Western Athletic Conference Championship Feb. 26 - March 1, at the Palo Alto College Aquatic Center in San Antonio, TX.

The Falcons scored 625 points behind UNLV (767) and Wyoming (702). Third place is Air Force’s secondbest finish as a member of the WAC (1981-1998 and 2013-14).

Dominic Vallejo (316.55 points) earned his first platform diving title as a Falcon Feb. 28 leading a quartet of cadets who claimed four of the top five places in the event. Following him were Alex Pecci, Nathaniel Zillweger and A.J. Eckebrecht in third through fifth. Vallejo is the first Falcon to win a platform title since Kyle Van Valkenburg in 2009. The victory came on top of a second place finish the day before.

“It was exhilarating to come back from getting second place on the 1-meter and being able to pull through and get first on platform,” Vallejo said.

One day earlier, Zillweger (334.9 points) became Air Force’s first-ever conference champion in the 1-meter springboard. He narrowly edged out Vallejo (330.1). Both divers are sophomores. Eckebrecht, a freshman, placed seventh (269.75).

“Being able to represent the Air Force for diving and bring home the WAC 1-meter Conference Championship title has been the highlight of my diving career. I look forward to an even better season for the team next year,” Zillweger said.

Falcon diving coach Stan Curnow took home Diving Coach of the Year, the fourth time he has done so in his 21-year career with Air Force.

Air Force set two school records in the final event of the meet, the 400 yard free relay. With a time of 2:56.96, Ryan Dunne, Paul Leonhardt, Angus MacDonald and George Frank surpassed the previous school record of 2:58.11.

Dunne also improved the school record in the 100 free, for the second time, leading off the relay group. His 100 split of 43.50 surpassed the record he set earlier in the 100 free finals of 43.63. Air Force had swimmers in the championship finals of every event.

In the 200 back, sophomore Matthew Walls and MacDonaid took sixth and eighth. Walls’ prelim time of 1:46.97 is the fifth-fastest in school history. MacDonald’s prelim time of 1:47.28 is eighth fastest.

In the 100 free, Dunne took seventh and Frank placed 16th. Frank’s prelim time of 45.16 is ninth-fastest school time.

In the 200 breast, sophomore Michael Barnosky took sixth. His finals time of 1:59.69 was a season best. He was also part of setting records in the 200 and 400 medley relays.

“Being at the top of the record books is definitely an honor,” Barnosky said. “Although an individual record feels great, the relay records are the most important to me. It’s quite a spectacular feeling having broken a record with three other world class athletes and guys that I consider my best friends.”

TheFalcons swam well in the 1,650 free, taking two of the top four spots. Freshman Andrew Facizewski was runner-up with a time of 15:15.35, third all-time at the Academy. His 1,000 yard split of 9:12.71 is also third at Air Force. Sophomore Kevin Jackson was fourth with a time of 15:25.07.

Facizewski was named WAC Freshman Swimmer of the Year. He was a top-five finisher in three events - 1,650 free (second), 500 free (third) and 400 individual medley (fifth).

TheFalcons set four of five relay records (200 free, 400 free, 200 medley, 400 medley) and had 25 swims crack the school top 10 list. - Athletic Media Relations

Eleven Academy records, 14 more times in the school’s top 10 and the second best team finish ever show Air Force women’s swimming and diving is on the rise after the 2014 Mountain West Conference Championships in San Antonio, TX, Feb. 19-22.

Air Force placed sixth out of 10 teams with 292 points for its best finish since the 2003 season.

Freestyle distance swimmer Genevieve Miller led the way becoming the first Falcon to capture two event championships. The freshman is AFA’sfirst champion since 2004 giving Air Force has four MWC swim titles (Jamie Van Kooten, 100 fly, 2004; Sara Crowell, 100 fly, 2003) to go with six diving titles.

“It was absolutely wonderful to be able to contribute to the team score individually, and I feel like (or at least hope!) it made some teams startto respect us a little bit more as a serious competitor,” Miller said. “I think that having such amazing teammates and coaches really helped push me to work as hard as I possibly could since I was competing for something greater than myself.”

Miller, a freshman, swept the 500 free event, winning the prelims and finals with record-setting swims in both races4:45.13 and then 4:44.19. The second title came in the 1,650 free where her time of 16:19.17 broke her previous school record of 16:23.09. Her 1,000 free split time of 9:49.86 is also a school record. Miller also set a new school record in the 200 free, winning the consolation finals and taking ninthoverall with a time of 1:48.45.

Sara Menke gave Air Force a formidable 1-2 punch in the 1,650 free as the sophomore followed Miller with a secondplace finish at 16:28.83.

“The highlight of my meet was getting first and second in the 1,650 with Sara, as we had talked about how amazing it would be to have the both of us on the podium at once, claiming the top two spots,” Miller said.

Junior Kim Davis tooksixth place in the 200 breast with a school record time. Her time of 2:14.52 broke her previous school record of 2:15.17. Senior Hannah Cesare notched the second-fastest 100 free in school history with a time of 50.65. The final individual school record came in the 100 breast as Kira Schlosberg placed sixth after a prelim time of 1:02.21.

Air Force set new school records in all five relays at the championship meet.

Most impressive were the 200 and 400 medley relays by Sam Laughlin, Schlosberg, Gabrielle Aranda and Cesare. The quartet came in at 1:41.47 in the 200, nearly three second better than the 2013 mark of 1:44.17. Even greater was the difference in the longer race, 3:42.99 versus the previous record of 3:46.41.

Falcon freestylers took nearly a second off the school record in the 400 free relay. The group of Davis, Miller, Laughlin and Cesare swam a time of 3:22.63, surpassing the previous record of 3:23.59.

Davis, Menke, Erin Bleyl and Miller swam a record time of 7:17.34 in the 800 free relay, surpassing the previous 2013 record swim of 7:19.96. The fourth place finish ties the best relay finish ever by the Falcons, tying a 200 free relay group from 2002.

Air Force broke a 16-year-old school record in the 200 free relay when Davis, Aranda, Laughlin and Cesare swam a time

of 1:33.04, surpassing the 1998 record of 1:34.00. Air Force has now set all but one school record (50 free) in the last two years. Cesare, a senior, was Air Force’s top swimmer in the 50 free. She finished 30th with a career-best time of 23.71, which is the seventh-fastest AFA mark.

Freshman Savanna Meadows was Air Force’s top platform diver. Meadows placed 10th with 215.61 points. Sophomore Summer Getty followed in 16th, junior Lainie Long was 17th and sophomore Jessica Horn was 24th.

Air Force had a pair of divers make the consolation finals in the 3-meter springboard. Meadows placed 12th leading the team with a prelim score of 267.90 points. Long followed in 16th place with 255.72 points in the prelims.

ThreeFalcons competed in the 1-meter springboard. Meadows again led the way, placing 11th overall and third in the consolation finals posting a season-best score of 256.26 points. Long placed 19th with 226.17 points and Horn followed in 25th with 209.34 points. - Athletic Media Relations

Men’s Tennis

Air Force Academy’s men’s tennis notched one of the most successful seasons in program history despite falling in the first round of the Mountain West Conference Tournament to rival New Mexico. The team logged its first winning season since 2006 and won 13 matches, the most for the program since 2005.

“The best part of our season was definitely beating BYU,” said junior Grant Taylor. “They are a highly ranked team that we haven’t beat in something like twenty years, and we won 4-3.”

The team scored a number of impressive victories, including wins over BYU, Utah State, and, most importantly, a 4-2 win against archrival Army. These impressive victories all contributed to the team earning a rank of 63rd in the country, highest ever for Air Force tennis.

The team’s successful campaign was led by a core group of firsties including senior Captain Steven Young, team most valuable player Alex Grubbs, and number one doubles player

Andy Jackson. The senior class was thrilled to go out on a high note, and hopes they have left a positive mark on the program moving forward.

“This season was so successful because of the emphasis on the TEAM aspect. There were no individuals,” Young said. “I hope the legacy that teammates from my class year leave is that we succeeded together, and great things can happen when you focus on the team.”

Taylor, who will be the team’s captain for the 2014-2015 season, realizes there is a big hole to fill after losing such a great group of firsties.

“We’re graduating four starters so we’re going to need to focus on player development, both with the incoming freshmen and rising sophomores,” Taylor said.

Although the team graduates a lot of experience, younger players on the roster also stepped up and made significant contributions throughout the season. Sophomores Jack MeCullers and Andrew Parks both won awards at the team’s end of season banquet, and freshman Lucas Fumagalli also played well in his rookie season.

After one of the most successful seasons in program history, the team looks to build on their success and carry their momentum into next season. - C4C Phillip Resnick

The Air Force women’s tennis program honored the 2013-14 team at its annual banquet recently. Junior Natasha Rizvi was named the team’s Most Valuable Player.

Rizvi, from Frisco, Texas, won at least 20 singles and 20 doubles matches for the second consecutive season in 2013-14. She led the team with 28 total doubles wins, the most by a Falcon in one season since Kat Bushey and Christine Abayan each had 29 in 2005-06.

Rizvi also finished second on the squad with 23 singles wins and posted a team-high 17 dual match victories. She went 17-4 in duals, including an 11-2 record at the No. 3 position. Rizvi paired with fellow junior Marcelli Magday to win the doubles

title at the Navy and CSU Northridge Tournaments.

Magday won the team’s “Fighting Falcon” and “Iron Bolt” awards while sophomore Mary Meyers was named the Most Improved Player. Freshman Tracy Landram won the Outstanding Singles Award while Rizvi and Magday shared the Outstanding DoublesAward.

A new award this season is the “Sisterhood” Award, created in honor of Anastasia Hueffner, a 2014 graduate and team captain. The award recognizes a player who is a “program” changer at the Division I level and encompasses the complete player who has heart, fight and spirited leadership skills that take the team to new levels. Theaward will not be given out on a yearly basis, but only to those players who have made a significant impact to the team.

Air Force finished the season with a 17-9 record, its fifth consecutive winning season, the longest streak since moving to Division I in 1996. - Athletic Media Relations

Five conference wins, one on the road against nationally-ranked Long Beach State and back-to-back home sweeps Fresno State and San Jose State makes 2013 the most successful season yet for Air Force volleyball.

Air Force at home proved especially tough. Falcon Court victories over Wyoming (3-1), Nevada (3-0), Boise State (3-1), Fresno State (3-0) and San Jose State (3-0) tie the most conference wins since the program joined Division I in 1999. The cadets also topped UC Riverside (3-0) at home.

The Falcons bested Long Beach State in a five-set triumph (22-25, 25-15,25-27, 25-22, 15-11) during an early-season match in San Francisco. Air Force split a pair of five-set matches in the annual service academy showdown topping Navy at Annapolis, MD, but falling to Army in Washington D.C.

“It was a really cool experience being a part of the Falcons’ most successful volleyball team to date.

Building a program is a lot harder than it looks, and I’m so excited to see what the team can accomplish in the years to come following this great season,” said senior Cami Richan one of four Falcons exceeding 200 kills this season.

The last four seasons have seen great improvement in the Falcons’ volleyball program. Coaches and players took the team to new heights, winning more matches every season while many players impacted the Academy record book.

With 12 returners including the threeseniors and three freshmen, the Falcons came together with determination and played with more fight this season than ever before.

“I could have never asked for a better coaching team or more supportive teammates who have helped me grow both as a player and as a person. I know that this group of girls with this leadership will accomplish things not seen before in Air Force’s Division I program,” said junior Ayesha Hein who led the team with an attack percentage of .363 while racking up 253 kills. - C1C Josalynn Wise

Paced by six goals from senior captain Josh Stedman, Air Force water polo captured a 15-9 victory over Cal Baptist in the fifth-place game of the 2013 Western Water Polo Association Championship, hosted by UC Davis.

Stedman, who also registered an assist and a teamhigh three steals against CBU, ends his career as the eighth-leading point scorer in school history with 252 career points (184 goals, 68 assists) and the fifth-leading goal scorer.

The Falcons, who close out the season with a 6-14 overall mark, never trailed against the Lancers in the contest, taking a 3-0 lead midway through the first quarter with a pair of scores from junior Dominic Vicino and a penalty goal from Stedman. While Cal Baptist came back to tie the game at 3-3 at the end

of the first period, Air Force began to pull away in the second quarter, holding a 7-5 advantage at the half.

With a six-goal third quarter, including three tallies from Stedman, the Falcons pushed their advantage to 13-8 going into the final stanza and outscored the Lancers once more in the fourth period.

In addition to Stedman’s six goals, sophomore Kevin Womack pitched in three scores, all in the second half, while Vicino and Petar Jackovich tallied two goals each.

Meanwhile, senior captain Max Reilly who registered a goal and an assist in the contest, was named to the WWPA All-Tournament second team at the conclusion of the tournament.

Stedman was named an All-American for the 2013 season, as announced by the Association of Collegiate Water Polo Coaches. Stedman was named an honorable mention selection for the second-straight season, becoming just the third player inschool history to earn multiple All-America honors. - Athletic Media Relations

Seniors Joshua Kreimier and Devin Hightower led an otherwise fairly young group of competitors aided by rising star Josh Martinez.

Martinez, a sophomore, stepped up to help set the tone for other Falcon competitors by consistently ranking in the top six nationally. He had a strong showing at the prestigious Southern Scuffle and Cliff Keen Las Vegas Invitational, producing a third place finish inboth events.

The team lost some steam during the conference dual portion of the season but rebounded in incredible style finishing third at the Western Wrestling Conference tournament. This performance was aided by finalists senior Greg Rinker, freshman Natrelle Demison and Martinez.

Rinker won his first conference championship automatically qualifying for the Division 1 National Championships.

Martinez bounced back from an injury in the conference finals to come into the national tournament seeded fourth.

Rounding out the last of the four falcon national qualifiers were the team captains Kreimier and Hightower, who both won their true second matches at the conference tournament to qualify.

The season unfortunately saw Air Force suffer a personnel loss to the Naval Academy. Head Coach Joel Sharratt left Air Force to coach the rival midshipmen. Assistants Bart Horton and Sam Barber remain with the program.

“Our respectable ending this season was made possible by the dedication of our experienced coaches and unwavering program support from cadets,” Rinker said. “Coach Sharratt will be missed, but I know coaches Horton and Barber will continue to lead the wrestling team to more ambitious achievements.” - Air Force Wrestling

The Air Force Academy is known and respected around the country for its suecess in sports: the school regularly fields a good football team, hockey team is always top-notch and even smaller sports like gymnasties and boxing enjoy national success. However, one could make a compelling argument that USAFA’s track and field team is actually the Falcons’ most dominant team.

Air Force track and field wrapped up its conference portion of the season with a phenomenal showing at the Mountain West championships, winning both the men’s and women’s high jump and sweeping the podium in the men’s pole vault. Senior Rachel Herald, the team's outstanding women’s competitor, broke her own school record on the way to claiming the school’s first-ever Mountain West Conference high jump title with a clearance of 5'93/4". Joey Uhle won the conference pole vault title with a clearance of 17' 1".

The team traditionally performs very well in jumping events but this season was especially successful with athletes doing well in a number of other events. Senior Annette

Eichenberger, who was named the team’s MVP, finished fourth in the 1,500-meters with a blazing time of 4:41.97. Sophomore Grant Hamilton finished second in the shotput with a throw of 60'8", an Academy record.

The team loses a number of key seniors, including Herald, Eichenberger and Matthieu Caldwell, who finished fourth in the 800m at the Mountain West Championships. However, there are plenty of bright young stars that appear to be capable of building on the team's performance this year.

Sophomore Garrett Griffin and freshman Taylor Huslander finished third and fourth respectively in the javelin throw at the conference championships. Also, sophomore Katelyn Holland continued to climb up the Academy’s shot-put record list, as her throw of 45'41/4" at the conference championship meet placed her seventh on the school’s all-time list.

The underclassmen that looks most poised to lead the team in the future however is freshman Taylor Smith, who won the Mountain West men’s high jump with a clearance of 6'83/4". The mark is a quarter-inch shy of his personal best.

“It was exhilarating being able to win the conference as a freshman,” said Smith, who became the Academy’s secondever men’s outdoor high jump conference champion. “I hope to clear 7'0" in the near future and eventually compete at nationals.” - C4C Phillip Resnick

Victories over Ohio State (14-7) and Fairfield (9-8) put Air Force Lacrosse atop the conference and earned the team a bid for this year's NCAA tournament.

It is the first time since 1989 Air Force reached 10 victories and earned their first-ever East Coast Athletic Conference title. Though the team had reason to celebrate, Head Coach Eric Seremet made it clear: “I’m very proud of these guys...but we’re not done. Our goal is to continue with the season.”

A Falcon Stadium crowd of 1,225 saw Air Force keep on playing as the team dominated Richmond 13-5 in the NCAA play-in game. The Falcons’ offense started slow but they shut down Richmond in the second period, outscoring them 4-0. Senior midfielder Kyle Cassady and senior attackman Tommy McKee scored back-to-back followed by another back-to-

back from junior attackman Mike Crampton and senior midfielder Erik Smith.

The halftime scoreboard read “6-1” before the Falcons’ reprised their second period performance with another 4-0 period in the third. In the final period, Richmond ended its scoring drought with their own back-to-back, only to have Air Force’s junior and freshman midfielders James Burke and Austin Smith respond with their own goals to regain a 10-goal lead.

Air Force’s first-ever NCAA Tournament victory advanced the team to the first round where it fell to top-seed Duke. The season stands as one of the most successful in Academy history. Senior midfielder Erik Smith placed their achievements in perspective.

“We’ve been playing as an underdog all year [but] we’re comfortable playing as the underdog.. .we’re a team that’s blue collar, so when hard work pays off, it’s a great feat,” he said. - C4C Alex Fee

The club is more casual than the team, but cadet members still take part in competition-style events, in addition to semiweekly meetings. This year, club members participated in the ioCTF competition, where cyber warriors demonstrated knowledge, skill and attention to detail to solve challenges in various fields of computer security. Club members also learned how to set up secure networks and servers, as well as techniques to keep unwanted parties out of their network.

“Cyber club provides a more in depth introduction to cyber warfare than we receive in class and I found it to be an excellent tool in deciding if I would be interested in pursuing it as a career field,” said C4C Kristopher Fortier.

Cadets in the club also attended the 2014 Armed Forces Communications and Electronic Association Symposium where they met some of the nation’s top cyberspace leaders. Being selected for the Cyber Competition Team is a prestigious honor. Ctftime.org, a web site that tracks and ranks cyber teams competing in “Capture The Flag” challenges lists the Academy 45th of 1,310 teams worldwide and eighth of 136 U.S. teams.

CTF is the primary competition format for computer security teams like the Academy’s. Participating teams compete to find the flag (key) by solving problems or hacking prepared boxes.

“When you work on a problem for 20 hours and then you solve it - you’re overjoyed. There is still the competitive edge, even when they’re not in the room with you,” said C2C Bill Parks.

Cadets typically practice four times a week to keep their skills sharp. They even had to learn lock-picking skills for a CTF competition run by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The Academy team operates under the team name “Delusions of Grandeur.” The name comes from a warning given by a 2011 graduate, “Y’all have a long way to go—don't get delusions of grandeur.”

In addition to CTF events, the team focuses on the Rocky Mountain Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition, the National Security Agency-sponsored Cyber Defense Exercise, and the National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition. The team also travels for training and competitions to places like Philadelphia, New York, San Diego, Denver, and San Antonio. Other training and competitions take place in the Cyber Warfare Range in Fairchild Hall. - C3C Justin Niquette and C2C Lillian Warner

COMBAT SHOOTING

Cadets learn battlefield skills

The Combat Shooting Team practices marksmanship, weapons manipulations, and small unit tactics. It competes locally at the Boulder Rifle Club and Eastern Colorado International Defensive Pistol Association, where cadets have placed as high as second in competitions. The team also supports Polaris Warrior by training the squadron subject matter experts, helping the SMEs instruct their squad and acting as the opposition force.

The team often spends each Saturday training or competing - a big commitment for any cadet, but C1C Alex Severson thinks it was all worth it.

“Whether in training or competition, I have found a family in which I will always be welcome,” Cadet Severson said. “The team has provided me critical feedback and life lessons that have already made me a better person, teammate, and leader. I would trade my time on the team for nothing.”

Not only does the team prepare its members for competitions and military operation in urban terrain training, but it also provides them with skills they can use in the active duty Air Force and after.

“It’s awesome to be a part of a team that does everything it can to learn skills that will not only help me as a shooter in the military and civilian life, but skills that will help me as a leader as well,” said C4C Jake Martin.

This past year, the team traveled to Boulder Feb 15th to compete in the Boulder Rifle Club Defensive Pistol Match. The course consisted of two stages with approximately 15 targets per stage. This competition was meaningful to the team not only because one cadet, C2C Trevor Haydel, placed second out of over 30 competitors, but also because CMSgt Jeremy Hardy, the Commandant’s Superintendent and a career pararescueman, traveled with the team and shot at the competition as well.

“It's good to see hours of practice translate into tremendous success at competitions,” said C4C Jake Seratte.

TRIATHLON

Athletes rank sixth nationally

The USAFA Triathlon Team competes in multiple races and race distances across the country every year, representing both the Academy and Air Force. The team, a member of the Mountain Collegiate Triathlon Conference, was the sixth nationally-ranked collegiate triathlon team at the 2013 USA Triathlon Collegiate National Championships.

The team is composed of 30 cadets with experience ranging from racing triathlons competitively in high school to not knowing how to swim. There are both recreational and competitive sides of thehouse depending on desired level of involvement.

The Triathlon Team competes in races ranging from the col

legiate/Olympic competition distance (one-mile swim, 24.8mile bike, 6.2-mile run) to the IRONMAN distance (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, 26.2-mile run). Although the majority of races are around the Colorado area, the team has competed in several IRONMAN races at places like Wisconsin, Florida and British Columbia.

Max Bierman, spring team captain, was very active and successful. He took first place at the IRONMAN 70.3 (half IRONMAN) in Muncie, IN, and fourth place at the IRONMAN Canada. Bierman also competed at IRONMAN 70.3 World Championships in Las Vegas, NV, placing 21st in the 18-24 age group.

Brandon Bannon took second at IRONMAN Florida and Erin Crow placed third at IRONMAN Canada. Jose Baez competed at Las Vegas World Championships, placing 44th (18-24 age group), and in the IRONMAN 70.3 Kansas. Megan Haley, fall team captain, raced in the IRONMAN 70.3 Boulder. - C1C Max Bierman

Academy drill teams learn sacrifice, service for nation

True to its name, the U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Honor Guard has honored fellow cadets, graduates and service members with pride, respect and dignity for service and sacrifice since being established in 1974.

“It’s about being a part of something larger than ourselves. What we do is little in comparison to the bigger picture,” said C1C Juli Lestina.

Practice is a key component of honor guard life where cadet ready different sets of skills, ranging from color guards to funeral firing parties. At least50 hours of practice are behind every exhibition team. Even daily details, like reveille and retreat are constantly honed. Flag details are usually organized by a third class cadet and supervised by a second class cadet. Cadets on cannon details training at Fort Carson.

The Cadet Honor Guard is also structured similarly to a cadet squadron. The honor guard commander serves the purpose of a squadron commander, followed by a director of operations and a superintendent. The team is composed of a rifle exhibition flight, details flight, and the A-flight, home to fourth class cadets. Drill is done using M-l Garands and 150 weapons are in inventory. In addition, honor guard is also responsible for the

75 mm Pack Howitzer cannon on Stillman Parade Field.

New members join during their four degree year. Once committed, fourth class cadets have daily practices on the Terrazzo where they are introduced and integrated into the culture of the Cadet Honor Guard. Four degrees must meet high standards and depend on teammates as they learn a drill sequence to compete in Tulane University’s National Drill Meet. The purpose of the training is to lay a strong foundation on which to build competent cadre members.

Most honor guard functions are performed in front of large audiences, often with very delicate circumstances.

“[These] require a great deal of focus, skill and intuition, which are only developed through hard training,” said C1C Daniel Incorvaia, Cadet Honor Guard cadet-in-charge.

Fourth class cadets must complete the rigorous training and show they truly are a team before being fully embraced by the Cadet Honor Guard. The awarding of black berets and team patches shows complete recognition and acceptance.

“Family isn’t something you choose. You just wake up one day and realize that you became family somewhere along the way,” Cadet Incorvaia said. - Cadet Honor Guard

ALPINE SKI

Cadets third in nation

Fourth place isn't bad, but the 12 cadets on the Alpine Ski Team knew they needed better if they were to qualify for the 2013 U.S. Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association National Championships.

A dozen men and women represent the Academy racing in both slalom and giant slalom against colleges from Colorado. Montana and Idaho. The team usually performs well in the Rocky Mountain Conference but it hadn’t reached nationals since 2008.

Nearing the end of a great season, the team was invited to compete at the Regional Championships in Red Lodge, MT. They loaded up and headed north for the weekend. Upon arrival, the competition was found to be much tougher than expected with teams like University of Colorado, Denver University and Rocky Mountain College all sending their best athletes.

Sitting in fourth place after the first day of racing, bad conditions worked to Air Force’s advantage as other teams’ racers crashed and slid out of the course.

“Remember, a finish is a finish. No matter what, stay on your skis and get through the course,” said Ned Kingman before the cadet team startedits run.

Tucker Brown, Dirk MacDonald, Jake Johnson and Kingman all managed to finish the course with competitive times, shooting Air Force into third place by only a few seconds and qualifying them for nationals.

RATTEX

Students run show behind scenes

RATTEX is the behind the scenes club that runs Arnold Hall from the Cadet Wing side. From weekend movies to getting microphones for four-star generals, RATTEX members run and help with a large numher of events in Arnold Hall.

Twice each year, in the fall and the spring, RATTEX members come together to provide technical support for Blue Bards productions A Midsummer Night’s Dream and The Drowsy Chaperone. Each performance involved a complex sequence of sound and light cues in addition to ensuring the casts had microphones and a set. Between a couple of four degrees and some Arnold Hall staff, the entire set for the second show was built, including an airplane!

Weekend restriction is common for four degrees and with no base movie theater, RAT-

TEX members also show recent releases on the big screen in the Arnold Hall Theater. The club is a great opportunity for cadets to get involved with a club that supports other cadets.

“The RATTEX club has been an awesome opportunity to not only get involved with large productions, but also smaller events and briefings, giving me the opportunity to meet some incredible people, both those who spoke and those who participated in the club,” said C4C Alex Fulton.

RATTEX works closely with Arnold Hall staff. The club has developed a solid reputation with the influential people who speak in the theater such as Chief of Staff of the Air Force, Gen Mark A. Welsh III who complimented RATTEX, when he said “Thanks for your outstanding support, you always get it right!” - C1C Christian Brechbuhl

Club connects with local kids via science experiments

A circle of about 30 elementary school kids stands in a classroom, all holding hands. The teacher holds a metal device, what seems to be an innocent metal cup, but in reality it has the potential to cause a spark - literally.

Once he ensures everyone has skin contact with each other, the instructor completes the circuit using his other hand to grab the metal cup, and a shock is thrust through everyone’s body. The kids scream, but with joy, not pain, at this traditional ending act for the Physics is Phun demonstration of discharging a Leyden Jar.

One to three times a month, the Physics Club cadets travel to various educational centers and science events throughout the community to perform simple demonstrations pertaining to the natural world. Typical audiences are elementary school students, but sometimes more adolescent audiences are involved.

“It keeps USAFA involved in the community,” said C4C

Katherine Kopinski about her experience with Physics is Phun. The best part of it to her is “seeing how impressed children are with something as simple as a complete circuit. It reminds us to stay impressed, too.”

In an era where STEM outreach is a main priority of the country to grow America’s technical might, showing young audiences the “phun” part of science is critical.

Other demonstrations include freezing food items with liquid nitrogen, static electricity demonstrations with the Van de Graaf generator, shooting metal rings up with a Thompson Tower, and using heat to create music in metal pipes. The audience favorite, however, is the colors emitted from gaseous discharge tubes - the “lightsabers.”

The club also takes kids on a tour of the stars using the Academy’s observatory. Visitors learn about the size of solar system objects, take a look through the telescope and learn how to use a star chart which allows them to take the “phun” home.

“The Physics is Phun program is just one way that I am able to take part in the STEM environment, despite being a history major,” C3C Daniel Ryerson remarked. “It is my way of spreading and passing on my love for the field.”

Physics is Phun is open to all cadets who are interested in science, regardless of their main academic field of study.

NORDIC SKI TEAM

Successful year sees six skiers qualify for national championships

The Nordic Ski Team enjoyed a very successful season with the men and women finishing second and third in their conference, respectively, and six skiers qualifying to compete at the 2014 Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association National Championships.

Also known as the crosscountry ski team, the club has cadets from all four classes who compete in the Rocky Mountain Conference of USCSA. The team is in a period of growth; seven new freshmen joined this year to almost double the team’s size and increase its visibility.

“I actually wanted to join the downhill club, but I saw the Nordic team’s table next to theirs and figured, why not give it a try?” C4C Kojiro Kobayashi said.

Training is difficult at the Academy due to the frequent lack of snow, but the team is often seen roller skiing around the parade field or working on strength and conditioning. Once 416 * CLUBS

snow is available, the cadets train at Snow Mountain Ranch in Granby on weekends.

Competing against University of Wyoming, Colorado Mesa University, and Western State College, this year’s conference race series consisted of eight events ranging from distances of lk - 21k. The races were a mix of classic and skate style skiing - each style presenting its own challenges. This year was the team’s most successful in over a decade.

Cadets making to Nationals were Hailey Clinton, Corey Landis, Taylor Vonasek, Carol Southard, Zack Morrow and Ben Stallman. The competition was held in Lake Placid, NY.

“Nationals was the culmination of a fantastic race season and four years with the team,” Clinton said. “I'm honored to wear the team uniform and represent USAFA on the national scale in races against 27 other schools.”

Spending afternoons and weekends together for more than three months brought the team very close together, according to Landis, the club’s cadet-in-charge.

“From the intense practice regimen to cooking and building snowmen, every member of the team has learned not onlv about our other teammates, but also about ourselves and what we are capable ol doing, he said. “Coordinating race weekends has been a continuous challenge for me, but I have really enjoyed the camaraderie that has made this team extremely close.” - Academy Nordic Ski Club

MARATHON

Cadet runners notch accomplishments

From days filled with sunshine and chirping birds to days marked by biting wind and snow, the marathon team is certain to be running. Six days a week, the core team trains rigorously for the season’s marathon.

In the fall semester, the team travels to Washington D.C. to run the annual Marine Corps Marathon. This past year, the Academy team placed first in the Women’s Open Division and second in the Men’s Military Division.

Individuals who qualified for the 2015 Boston Marathon include James “Jimbo” Stofel, Tyler “Doze” Dimson, Jared Olson, Tim Severance, Kate Brien, and club officer in charge Capt Ryan Silva. Of the qualifiers, Dimson’s first place division finish, 2:45:09 overall time, and 6:17 average mile pace stood out as extraordinary.

After MCM, the team looks forward to a few different race options in the spring semester. Team members choose

26.2 miles at a time

to run the Boston Marathon, Colfax Marathon, Colorado Marathon or Falcon Marathon. Some team members are erazy enough to run two races in the spring semester - a remarkable feat considering the physical toll from just one marathon. A few individuals on the team train for the Falcon 50, a very different race from the marathon, but rewarding in its own right. This year, Ange Phillips and Joey Drake will be the first two cadets to run the Falcon 50 four years in a row.

Not everybody on the Team has always beenused to running long distances, however. Yet C4C Jared Olson has found support from his team to overcome the challenge.

“Coming from a high school program where I raced the mile and 5K, having the opportunity to push myself to seemingly insane distances (50+ miles) with the support of awesome, like-minded runners has given me a new-found love and respect for the sport.”

This year’s core teams from the fall and spring semesters include Amelia Roddenberry, Mitch Pepa, Jordan Boyce, Dalton Hayes, Herbert Ice, Mary Boyle, Olson, Dimson, Stofel and Brien. Cadets who also run with the team include Calvin Boerwinkle, Chrissie Schira, Danny Mills and Ange Phillips.

“When I took over the Marathon Team in 2010 the club was a semi-defunct recreational group that met once a week for long runs,” Captain Silva said. “The team has transformed before my eyes into an awesome unit of dedicated cadets that push each other six days a week so that they can kick the door down and sweep the podium in every event they enter.”

Captain Silva credits the success of the team’s cadet leadership and expects bigger things to come as they set their sights on cracking the top-10 teams internationally at the 2014 Boston Marathon. - C2C Kate Brien

Club offers cadets training, competition and respite from hectic nature ofAcademy life

The Archery Club offers cadets training, competition and respite from the hectic nature of Academy life.

“[The club] exists to challenge cadets to mentally focus on their target with patience, commitment, and discipline,” said Cadet-In-Charge Rachael Trafford. “For anyone who loves the great outdoors, archery can be an extremely competitive and rewarding sport.”

Archery is primarily a cadet-run program. Upperclassmen instruct and mentor cadets in the lifetime sport of archery. Equipment use is included in the club’s small annual fee. Every few months, cadets are afforded the opportunity to compete in tournaments that

showcase the talents and skills they have developed. Club competitions and practices are held at the archery ranges, which are set amid a large open space east of the Academy’s Community Center. Complete with 3D target shooting, four field courses, and

a 60-yard static range, the site offer a variety of opportunities for all cadets to hone and develop their archery.

Coaching comes from USA Archery qualified instructors C2C Trafford, C3C Joshua Waugh and civilian club president A1 Duhon.

Another club benefit is the range serves as a sanctuary of sorts.

“The kind of solitude one can experience at the archery ranges serves as a stress reliever during overwhelming times throughout a cadet’s career,” Trafford said. “The grounds around the clubhouse also offer a great place where cadets can relax and escape to in order to get away from the grinding life up on the hill.” - C2C Luke Preslar

CADET CHORALE

Student vocalists continue proud history of singing excellence

The U.S. Air Force Academy Cadet Chorale is composed of men and women from all four cadet classes who represent the Academy through music and song. As one of the best-known singing groups in the Air Force, the chorale has served with pride and distinction since its premiere performance with the Denver Symphony in October 1958.

“I joined chorale as a freshman and was impressed with the level that this choir performs at for being at a military academy,” C3C Shannon Field said.

Cadets who indicate an interest in the program are auditioned to determine musical ability and other special talents. The number of members varies from year to year, but the musical ability stays fairly consistent. The chorale sings

anything from patriotic and classical selections to Disney and Broadway.

“I’ve really enjoyed being in chorale and having the opportunity to represent

the Academy through singing,” said C1C Josh Griffin while reflecting on his time with the chorale. “My most memorable experience was being able to sing The Messiah in the [Cadet Chapel], as that is what drew me to sing in the chorale in the first place.”

Within the Cadet Chorale, there is a small group who re-audition for The Academy Singers, the Academy’s premiere a cappella group. This group has practices in addition to the Cadet Chorale and often sings at smaller events.

The Cadet Chorale is fairly vocal in the community, having sung at the International Fire Fighters Association memorial services as well as different venues where community service recognition is awarded. - C1C Danny Mills

HISTORY

Cadets learn about old, new military weapons through hands-on use

Past and present met the Air Force’s future as 15 cadets enjoyed a hands-on demonstration of small arms weapons used by the U.S. military at the History Club Weapon Shoot at Fort Carson May 3.

History Department faculty used 20 different weapons to tell the story of America’s fighting history and the brave men and women who relied on these weapons in battle. Weapons included muskets, bolt action rifles, modern assault rifles, and everything in between.

C1C Chris Champion enjoyed the muskets in particular. He described them as “the closest I’ve ever felt the soldiers who fought in the Revolution. Getting to use their type of weapon was really incredible.”

The club hopes the event’s success will be the first of many as it moves past reinstatement.

“After this event I definitely want to participate in more events with the history club. It sure was a great time,” said C2C Adam Thomas who found the 1903 Springfield rifle to be his favorite of the day.

The club has the potential to do some great things next year, according to cadet in charge C1C Trevor Cutler.

“In the past, we worked with visiting veterans and organized trips to local museums. The new generation of club

members is really excited to take the reins of the club and incorporate new ideas,” he said. “With any luck, the coming years will see an increase in club activity and a growth in membership to reflect the many amazing opportunities that exist in the local area.” - History Club
