Geothermal project sees lawsuit, fund issue Ball State looks for $33.1 M to complete Phase 2 by 2016 |

EMMA KATE FITTES CHIEF REPORTER emfittes@bsu.edu

Ball State’s multi-million dollar geothermal projects has encountered complications recently, including running out of funds in its final phase and a lawsuit involving a subtractor. A lawsuit between two contractors of the project will not

affect the construction, leaving the ideal date for its completion in Spring 2016, said Jim Lowe, director of engineering and construction operations. That completion date depends on receiving funding within the next month. “Phase 2 of the geothermal conversion was always a question in terms of completion because we knew when we ventured into the project that we had enough money to do slightly over half the project,” Lowe said. “At that time, we would have hoped that we would then be able to have the remainder

of the money in place [when phase one was completed].” The Indiana General Assembly will decide at the end of the month if it will grant the university another $33.1 million for Phase 2. Eight years ago, the assembly gave $44.9 million in bonds for Phase 1. The contract with Messer Construction is projected to be completed by the end of the month, although the university will continue to be involved in a lawsuit between subcontractor EnLink Geoenergy Service Inc. and Messer Construction. Lowe said Ball State has the

funds to complete its agreement with the general contractor Messer Construction.

GEOTHERMAL PHASES PHASE ONE: “NORTH DISTRICT ENERGY STATION”

THE LAWSUIT

Under the two softball fields on the north end of campus 1,800 boreholes were drilled. The boreholes send water through piping to an energy station that separates cold water from hot. The cold water then flows to 47 buildings on campus while the hot water goes to 22. Air hailing units in the buildings use the water to change the air temperature.

EnLink Geoenergy said Messer Construction owed it more than $1.3 million in its complaint, filed through the district clerk on March 11. According to the complaint, Messer Construction stopped paying EnLink for its service and goods after July 15, 2012, making EnLink “the most recent victim” of the project’s bore fields of Ball State.

PHASE TWO: “SOUTH DISTRICT ENERGY STATION”

An additional 1,800 boreholes and energy station will be added on the south side of the campus. This will add heating to the additional 25 buildings on campus not covered by the northern energy stations. So far, 780 boreholes have been drilled. The site will be finished off as a soccer field when weather permits. Construction will remain at a standstill until additional funds are secured.

When #TeamDunkers entered Recreational Service’s intramural Battleship tournament against predominantly greek teams, they didn’t expect to win. #TeamDunkers, made up of Skiing and Wakeboarding Club members, managed to surpass their expectations on Wednesday night at Lewellen Pool when they snatched away the victory in the final moments of the seventh heat against two fraternity teams. “I thought we were going to get creamed,” said Saige Driver, a freshman telecommunications news major and #TeamDunkers members. Other teams thought the same thing as fraternity-based teams dominated the tournament’s roster with four out of six teams based in greek life. “We noticed part way through that the two teams were side by side and not splashing each other; that was the clue,” said Abby Haugh, an aquatics junior, after they were double-teamed during an earlier heat. It was a sport that her team “Lee’s Groupies” all agreed was a challenge. “It isn’t like soccer or basketball because you start off without the basics. Even if you canoed before it wouldn’t help, too much is happening out on the water,” Haugh said. The “Battleship” event takes place three times a year. Recreational Services Intramural Sports hosts a game in August, October, and the one during the Spring Semester.

Frog Baby was removed shortly after being vandalized on Dec. 12, 2012. Frog Baby will return to her place in the fountain in time for Spring Commencement.

Founder won’t know exact cost of damage until work complete MICHAEL BOEHNLEIN AND DEVAN FILCHAK | news@bsudailynews.com With graduation a month away, some students have feared that Ball State’s iconic Frog Baby statue wouldn’t return in time for that final picture. Venus Bronze Works, a sculpture restoration firm in Detroit, began work on the figure Monday. After an initial survey of the damages, Giorgio Gikas, owner of Venus Bronze Works, assured that the statue will return to its place before Spring Commencement. Initial estimates for removing the paint along with the extra corrosion from Frog Baby were anywhere between $3,000 to 5,000, said Jim Lowe, director of Engineering and Construction Operations, in February. Gikas said the final cost won’t be known until the restoration is complete. He said the restoration will be a two week process and two men will work on it. Frog Baby was vandalized on Dec. 12, 2012. The statue was painted gold, along with nine other locations on campus including sidewalks, light poles and a push button at the Scramble Light. Hannah Leath and Hannah Mellott were charged with criminal mischief, a class B misdemeanor. Lowe said in February that officers investigated spray paint marks, one of which included Leath’s initials, and used the security camera footage of Frog Baby that night.

Walk to focus on suicide prevention Participants to write their reasons to live on paper at event BRITTANY O’BRIEN STAFF REPORTER | bmobrien@bsu.edu Suicide prevention organizations will address a topic that a walk organizer describes as a “blacklist topic.” People will walk and share their personal reasons to live in an effort to bring awareness to suicide prevention. The Out of Darkness 5k walk will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. on Sunday, with registration beginning at 11:30 a.m.

The walk, in partnership with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, begins at the Atrium patio with a speech and participants will walk around campus. There will be tables set up for other organizations that are similar to the Alive Campaign. At the halfway point, participants will be able to write their reason to walk on a large sheet. They will receive a free bracelet from the Alive Campaign. “Suicide is a very blacklist topic and no one wants to talk about it on college campuses, there [are] a lot of things about suicide that people don’t know, like pay-

ing attention and looking at their surroundings,” said Brandon Puszkiewicz, director of Public Relations and Coordination for the Alive Campaign. “Suicide can be very avoidable.” According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, a person dies by suicide every 13.7 minutes, claims more than 38,000 lives each year and is the second leading cause of death for college students. “The walk goes towards funding for research, and also to help provide different activities and events to raise suicide awareness, especially on college cam-

puses,” said Carmen Diaz, the Executive Director of the Alive Campaign. “The walk will also raise awareness for the Alive Campaign, which tries to have a positive infrastructure on suicide prevention to let people know there is support,” By participating in the walk, will help raise money for research and education programs to prevent suicide and will help to save lives. The walk will also help to increase national awareness about depression and suicide and to provide support for survivors or suicide loss. Different colored Mardi Gras beads will be available

Leno to leave NBC show; Fallon to fill in time slot Widely anticipated change to happen during Spring 2014 | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — NBC on Wednesday announced its long-rumored switch in late night, replacing Jay Leno at the “Tonight” show with Jimmy Fallon and moving the iconic franchise back to New York. Fallon will take over in about a year, the switch coinciding with NBC’s Winter Olympics coverage next year. Veteran “Saturday Night Live” producer Lorne Michaels also will take over as executive producer of “Tonight.” NBC made no announcement on who would replace Fallon at the 12:35 a.m. “Late Night” slot, although Seth Meyers of “Saturday Night Live” is considered a strong candidate. The change at “Tonight,” the longest-running and most popular late-night talk show, had been widely reported but not confirmed by the network until Wednesday. NBC reportedly just wrapped up negotiations with Fallon on a contract extension. Steve Burke, chief executive officer of NBC Universal, said the network is purposefully

Jay Leno takes the stage to raise money for the Gulf Coast Community Foundation on August 21, 2010 with Jay Leno Stand-up for the Gulf Coast Benefit, at the Beau Rivage Theatre in Biloxi, Miss. Leno has announced that he is handing off the Tonight Show to Jimmy Fallon who will take over in about an year.

making the move when Leno is still at the top of the ratings, just as when Leno replaced Johnny Carson at “Tonight” in 1992. “Jimmy Fallon is a unique talent and this is his time,” Burke said. Leno offered his congratulations to Fallon in a statement. “I hope you’re as lucky as me and hold on to the job until you’re the old guy,” he said. “If you need me, I’ll be at the garage.” Fallon said, “I’m really excited to host a show that starts today instead of tomorrow.”

NBC has been quietly building a new studio for Fallon at its Rockefeller Center headquarters. “Tonight” began in New York in the 1950s, but Carson moved it to California in 1972. Starting next year, Fallon, Letterman, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert will tape late-night shows in New York. ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel and TBS’s Conan O’Brien will be the top California-based shows. The Leno-Fallon changeover didn’t begin smoothly. Leno had been cracking jokes about NBC’s prime-time futility, angering NBC entertain-

The 5K walk/run event will be intermittently broken up by stations where participants will be drenched in paint. “It’s similar to a color run, at certain points paint is thrown so you get all sorts of colors on you,” Woroscylo said. Woroscylo said there are still about 200 spots left. Preregistration, which ends tonight at midnight on Facebook, costs $25 for Ball State students, faculty and staff, $30 for others. Those who preregister also receive a free white event T-shirt that is sure to end covered in paint. Those who are interested can register day of, without receiving a shirt for $5 more than the original price. “Of course we want as many people to show up and register as we can- the more people who run the better,” Woroscylo said. Woroscylo said members of her group had heard students talking about other

color themed running events that made her decide to use it for this event. “It’s fun and grabs the attention of students,” she said. “The fun, color aspect is something a lot of people were interested in.” There have been several other color events although they have been off campus Woroscylo said, which is why she decided to hold this event at Bethel Field. “We put it right on campus so students don’t have to go anywhere, which is really exciting for us,” she said. Woroscylo said it is more about having fun and raising money than actually running. “More for the fun of getting colored — yeah there will be competitive runners, but no reason to feel ashamed to walk,” she said. “We want everyone to have fun for such a worthy cause,” Woroscylo said. “Even if running isn’t your thing; walk, color and come have fun with your friends.”

Participants to be covered in paint at first-time event Registration ends today, costs $25 per BSU student CHRIS STEPHENS CHIEF REPORTER | castephens@bsu.edu Participants will be doused in paint as they run or walk across check points during what organizers have called, “the most colorful run on campus.” Today is the last day to register for an event. All proceeds from Chase the Rainbow, presented by the Ball State Dietetic Association and Pre-Health Professionals Club, go to the Muscular Dystrophy Association. “They put on a summer camp for kids with [muscular dystrophy] to be able to get away for a week,” said DeeAnna Woroscylo, president of the Pre-Health Professionals Club. “It’s free for the kids and all of the volunteers because of donations like ours.”

FROG BABY: Statue to be coated in wax

| CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Gikas said he could not divulge what exact restoration methods the statue would receive, but a wax coating will be applied to Frog Baby to improve the preservation. ”The most important thing about graffiti and vandalism is to have it taken care of right away,” he said. Lowe said in February that

Frog Baby’s repair didn’t begin immediately after the vandalism because Ball State had to find the right company and work out a contract. “We wanted to make sure it was done properly,” Lowe said. Erik Charles, senior telecommunications audio production major, said not just students know about Frog Baby. “Just having that iconic statue to take pictures at

when you’re leaving after you spent four years working hard to earn a degree,” he said. “It would be awesome to get Frog Baby back to at least take some pictures with it and a good send-off for the seniors.” “I wouldn’t see anybody not appreciating [having it back],” Charles said.

for participants to wear. Each color represents a different loved one lost. “Whether it’s an uncle, a cousin, a friend, someone who has personally struggled with suicide, or a survivor, will be represented by a dif-

ment chief Robert Greenblatt, who sent a note to Leno telling him to cool it. That only made Leno go after NBC management much harder. The first public effort toward making the transition smooth came Monday night, when Leno and Fallon appeared in a comic video making fun of the latenight rumors. It aired in between each man’s show. John Dawson, general manager for five NBC affiliates that have extensive reach throughout Kansas, said it will be difficult to give up a program that wins its time period by 33 percent. “Jay has always been a great friend to the affiliates,” he said. “For that alone it will be hard to give up.” But he said he believes in Fallon and in NBC’s corporate owners Comcast, the nation’s largest cable company. “Comcast certainly knows how to launch entertainment programming,” Dawson said.

Puszkiewicz said the different colored beads have a deep meaning. “It’s a great cause because you are walking for people in their honor, and the walk is a remembrance of people,” he said.

MURDERED ATTORNEY ATTENDED BSU

Mike McLelland, the Kaufman County District Attorney in Texas who was shot and killed last weekend, attended Ball State in the mid-’70s. McLelland completed a master’s degree in counseling from Ball State on Nov. 15, 1974, said Joan Todd, executive director of public relations. He and his wife, Cynthia, were both fatally shot Saturday in their home, according to the Associated Press. They lived about 20 miles east of Dallas near Forney. No one has been charged with the crime, but a white supremacist prison gang, The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, is now under suspicion. The group has been in the Texas prison system since the 1980s, according to the AP. Detectives have declined to say if they are the focus of the killings. On Jan. 31, one of the county’s assistant district attorneys, Mark Hasse, was killed near his office, according to the AP. Fourteen prosecutors have been killed in the last century in the U.S., according to the National District Attorney Association news reports and statistics. The funeral service will be at 10 a.m. Friday at First Baptist Church in Wortham, Texas. -SARA NAHRWOLD

BREWER’S CHOICE

BARLEY ISLAND BREWING CO.

Small operation Noblesville brewpub plans to expand to greater Midwestern regions JACK MEYER STAFF REPORTER before shipping them off to all | jlmeyer3@bsu.edu corners of Indiana and Chicago. Jeff Eaton beat much of the crowd to the brewing scene in central Indiana, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been a long journey. Eaton began home brewing with friends in the late ‘80s and before he knew it, he was drawing up a business plan for what is now Barley Island Brewing Co. Today, he is planning to expand. His small operation brewpub will soon add a larger scale bottling line, which will be used to service more of the Midwest. “We need more room,” Eaton said. “I spend hours each week just moving stuff around.” In their space that is proving too small for their growth, Eaton and his employees currently label each bottle by hand and then fill them with their various brews

Eaton hasn’t always been the brewpub’s head brewer. Previously, the brewing side of the operation was manned by a succession of brewers, first of which was John Lang, who is now the head brewer of Triton Brewing Company on Indianapolis’ northeast side. Together, Lang and Eaton brewed a number of notable beers. Most notably, Dirty Helen, a brown ale named after a foulmouthed tavern owner from Noblesville, Ind. The beer won best American brown ale in 2009 at the Great American Beer Festival, the largest of such competitions in the United States. Eaton has been judging similar competitions in Indiana since 2002, a skill that has helped him perfect his own brews.

Thirsty for more? Each week, 72 HRS will explore a local brewery and ask for the brewer’s recommendation. “I like the control over the process; the creativity, the ingredients, tweaking things with the grain or with the hops,” Eaton said. Eaton said having the pub connected to his brewhouse is an advantage Barley Island has over stand-alone breweries. “The difference would be that we’re a brewpub with packaging so we have both a restaurant/bar as well as the production side,” Eaton said. “That configuration allows us to try out new beers with our customers in the restaurant/bar and perfect them before doing any bottling or kegging.” Eaton’s beers can be found in bottles around Muncie and on the rotating taps at Be Here Now.

India Pale Ales were made popular in England in the 1800s when they were brewed for trips to and from the British Isles and, obviously, India. The generous amount of hops used in the ales better preserved them for the long voyage. Eaton says this beer is an acquired taste and is the top seller at the brewpub.

VGR TO HOST FOLK MUSIC SHOWCASE

Muncie native, musician to join three acts similar in genre at Village venue this weekend SETH JOHNSON STAFF REPORTER available for download on his | smjohnson5@bsu.edu Bandcamp page. He is also afTraveling across the country and back again — through deserts, mountains and beaches — Benjamin London and his guitar have found a friend in street corners. Known as busking, London performs in the streets of wherever he finds himself. Having recently returned from a busking stint at South by Southwest, or SXSW, London uses his improvised folk tunes as a storytelling outlet. “Folk music, to me, is for the people. It’s a history — telling stories and handing them down to ordinary people,” London said. “Learning folk songs and learning how to play that style helps me understand life better.” On Saturday, London will be joined by Caleb McCoach, Ten High Travelers and the duo of Christian Taylor and Derek Johnson at the Village Green Records’ Folk Music Showcase. Influenced by ‘60s folk garage rock, London said he believes improvising his way through songs allows him to unlock his subconscious, piecing his thoughts to make a message. “If I wanted to write down everything that I saw in a day, it would drive me crazy,” he said. “Basically what I have to do is let it all happen, and then instead of writing about it, say what I think about it in little phrases.” London has released a single and two collections of songs as his solo project, all of which are

filiated with the projects Royalty and She Creatures of the Hollywood Hills. London, who graduated from Ivy Tech in Muncie, considers himself a part of the Fountain Square music community in Indianapolis. He said he has made music connections there, including one with Taylor, who has shared his wisdom with the younger London. “I like to think of him as Yoda,” London said. “He’s been through it all. He’s really good at expressing himself through music.” Taylor will play with a full band at his VGR performance, including Johnson, an assistant professor of music theory and composition at Ball State, on drums. The group will play songs from Taylor and Johnson’s upcoming cassette/digital download release “Blues Tape.” Although every song on the tape was written by Taylor, Johnson has been involved with the recording process. “On the final track on the album, ‘Crying Unto Thee,’ we had to improvise drums, as the kit I had on loan went away,” Johnson said. “On that track I recorded boot clicks and broom, and Christian plays a music stand and stomps.

Students to help local business owners

Group aims to assist small businesses with financial issues |

SARA NAHRWOLD DAY EDITOR news@bsudailynews.com

A team of seven Ball State students in conjunction with Innovation Connector, the local business incubator in Muncie, will launch an event Thursday in an effort to provide small business owners and leaders with an organization that can assist them. From 5:30-6:30 p.m. at IC’s office, 1208 W. White River

Blvd., small business owners and leaders will listen to a facilitator discuss IC and how it can benefit the small business community as well as interact among each other. The students have been part of a year-long immersive learning project through Building Better Communities. Team members are BBC fellows and IC ambassadors. “It’s kind of our first presentation on what our initiative is so we really want to make an impact and show small business owners that this is going to work,” Ashley Noga, a junior public relations major said. “This is going to motivate them

and get them to connect with each other and work together.” The Innovation Connector is aimed at helping small businesses when they’re starting up with financial issues or have concerns. Resource agents will be there such as the Business Growth Council and the Small Business Development Center. “Business owners and leaders in the community should attend our event to learn about our new initiatives because we’ve done a lot of research and had a lot of community conversation with small business owners,” Amy Fusco, a graduate student involved with IC said. “ We want a really open,

trustworthy environment for the business owners to learn from each other and coming to the event will teach everyone what IC is and connect them with others.” The current economic climate of Delaware County is an important topic the students have focused on throughout the year as that factor affects small business owners. “It’s similar to any small city across America,” Fusco said. “A lot of people have been struggling because of the recession that has been happening.” The students have networked with more than 200 small business owners in the county since

the project began. In the Fall Semester, the students mostly researched and held focus groups with small business owners, Noga said. The focus groups helped students gain perspective on the struggles and challenges business owners have faced and with what more they need help. One of the goals of Thursday’s event is to get excitement passed into the community about IC as well as business owners working together and what it means for the community. “I think it’s important to get the community excited about what we’ve created,” Megan Bousley, a sophomore public

relations major said. “We’re excited about it. It’s been with us a whole year but we need to make sure what we’ve created works.” Learning has been a strong outcome of the BBC project for the students and planning for the Thursday night event to bring owners together. “I definitely learned a lot about small businesses in Muncie as a community,” Bousley said. “I went into the project not having a lot of knowledge in that area, which concerned me a little at the beginning. We are definitely learning about business in a way you can’t learn about it in the classroom.”

Superintendent GEOTHERMAL: Contract to end when soccer field fixed leery of armed school staffers | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Plan would require schools to have 1 employee with gun | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana’s state schools superintendent signaled her opposition Wednesday to a plan that would require public and charter schools to have an employee armed with a loaded gun, saying such deciGLENDA RITZ Indiana’s state sions should be made by schools Superintendent the individual districts rather than mandated by the Legislature. Glenda Ritz, a Democrat who took office in January, said she didn’t know about the proposal before a Republican-controlled Indiana House committee added it Tuesday to a Senate-approved bill aimed at starting a school security grant program. The armed employee proposal would have to clear both the full House and Senate by the Legislature’s April 29 adjournment deadline to become law. Leaders of the Indiana School Boards Association and the Indiana State Teachers Association also said they didn’t believe the proposal was well thought out. Supporters of the requirement say it would lessen the vulnerability of schools to violent attacks such as the December elementary school shooting in Newtown, Conn., in which 20 students and six teachers died. The plan, however, is facing questions over whether people not trained as police officers should have such responsibilities and the potential costs school districts would face to ensure a trained armed person is present during all school hours. Ritz said local school officials should make decisions about what security steps are needed, including

whether to hire police officers or have them assigned to school buildings. “I’m not for or against any type of officer that’s placed in a school district,” she said. “I think that’s up to the school district to make that local decision and the state of Indiana should not be mandating that.” The bill would require a person designated as the school protection officer — whether a police officers or employee such as a teacher or principal — carry a loaded weapon and be at the school at all times during regular school hours. The protection officers would have to meet training standards set by a new statewide school safety board, but the bill doesn’t specify any training minimums or include any funding to pay for training or other expenses. Frank Bush, executive director of the Indiana School Boards Association, said any teacher, principal or counselor who takes on such duties would already have full-time duties in the school. “There’s no guarantee that the person that gets trained is going to be there every day on the premises with the firearm to be able to provide that kind of protection,” Bush said. “So it seems more logistically important for a school to have the money to go out and employ a full-time person for that kind of work that’s trained in law enforcement.” Legislators cited the opportunity to hold costs down by avoiding the hiring of police officers at all schools as a reason to open the security position up to current employees. The provision’s sponsor, Rep. Jim Lucas, R-Seymour, said having an armed person in the school would be the best defense against an attack. “We are introducing firearms into schools, absolutely,” Lucas said. “But when the lack of firearms gives us the tragedies that we’re experience right now, to continue down the same path, to me, would be the true crime.” Indiana law makes it a felony for someone other than a police officer to possess a gun on school property.

the lowest bid that meets requirements. The contractor then hires subcontractors separate from the university. Ball State and Messer Construction declined to comment on the lawsuit. The Ball State Daily News was unable to reach EnLink’s attorney.

THE PROJECT

The two-phase geothermal project started in May of 2009 with the goal of converting the heating and cooling of campus buildings from coal burning facilities to geothermal systems. Phase 1 of the conversions was completed in March of 2012, bringing geothermal heating to 22 buildings on the north end of campus and cooling to all 47 buildings, Lowe said. According to the Ball State website, 1,800 boreholes, each 500 feet deep, were drilled and connected to piping under the two softball fields on the north side of campus. Water flows through the pipes

“Messer’s failure to pay EnLink and EnLink’s subcontractors and suppliers also is causing severe financial distress for many of them,” EnLink said in its complaint. Part of the money being withheld from EnLink is for liquidated damages, or monetary losses. Under their contract, EnLink owes Messer Construction $5,000 for each day its work is delayed. In turn, Messer Construction would owe that money to Ball State. “Ball State will be assessing Messer’s liquidated damages,” Lowe said. “There are liquidated damages being charged. The final amount will be determined shortly.” In the complaint, EnLink said the delay wasn’t causing damages because the bore field is dormant and its work is complete. EnLink also said one cause of the delay was that it was having a difficult time hiring and retaining subcontractors, according to the complaint. EnLink said it thinks Messer was discouraging other subcontractors and suppliers from doing business with EnLink, though no further evidence has been offered. Lowe said Messer’s contract with the university will be completed when it puts the borehole site back into soccer field condition. He said this will include installing a sprinkler system top soil, leveling the field and laying sod when weather permits. Joan Todd, executive director of Ball State Public Relations, said in an email that the university hires contractors through a public bid process and selects

to an energy station that houses two large-capacity heat pumps. One produces cold water at 42 degrees Fahrenheit, and the other produces hot water at 150 degrees Fahrenheit. The water then flows through two different paths on campus to air hailing units in the buildings. The units are basically coils that water runs through to either heat or cool the air. The rest of the buildings on campus will receive heat with the completion of Phase 2, which includes another 1,800 boreholes and energy station on the south side of campus. Lowe said so far 780 boreholes have been drilled, but there are not enough funds to complete the rest of the work. He said if the General Assembly allocates another $33.1 million to the project, it would start the process of rebidding for contractors and drawing up plans, aiming to complete the project entirely in spring 2013.

Cards blow 7-run lead to Norse Maloney ejected at top of eighth inning for first time in 2013 DAVID POLASKI STAFF REPORTER | @davidpolaski Ball State coach Rich Maloney said going into Wednesday’s game that Ball State’s and Northern Kentucky’s records could be thrown out the window because it was a midweek game. He couldn’t have been more prophetic. The 12-13 Cardinals fell to the 4-24 Norse, 10-9, in one of

the team’s most bizarre games of the season. Even though Northern Kentucky got on the board first in the top of the second, despite not getting a hit, Ball State blew the game wide open in the bottom of the fourth. After leading off the inning with a single, Sean Godfrey scored on Billy Wellman’s ground ball up the middle. Tyler Curry singled and T.J. Weir walked to load the bases with nobody out. Campbell doubled and James singled, extending the lead to 4-1. After Cole Griesinger was safe at first on an error, Beemer scored Campbell, then DaVarie singled and Wellman doubled

to extend the lead to 8-1 before the inning ended. “You’re all just sitting there, thinking that you’re going to make every play and that nothing can go wrong,” Wellman said about the fourth inning. “Unfortunately we fell apart after that and it didn’t work out for us.” Northern Kentucky didn’t take much time responding. After scoring two in the top of the fifth, they retook the lead an inning later. Kyle Raleigh was pulled for Tyler Jordan after a lead-off walk, two singles and a walk that brought in a run. After a fly out and another walk to make it 8-5, Northern Kentucky’s

Logan Spurlin hit a grand slam to retake the lead, 9-8. After a Norse player stole second base in the top of the eighth, Maloney’s anger reached its limit. The Ball State coach rushed out of the dugout to argue with the second base umpire for the second time in the game. He followed the umpire all the way to the third base line, where the umpire tossed him. It was the first time this season Maloney has been ejected. “We didn’t do the things we needed to do today, and I was frustrated,” Maloney said. “Throw more strikes and make routine plays, otherwise it’s going to be a long day.”

Pitcher changes throwing style Jordan pulled out of NKU game after giving up grand slam DAVID POLASKI STAFF REPORTER | @davidpolaski Pitching just over 15 innings last season and amassing an earned run average of 8.62, Ball State’s Tyler Jordan needed a new wrinkle to his game in order to get more playing time and get more batters out. It wasn’t adding a new pitch, or improving his arm strength. Jordan made a more radical move. He changed the entire way he pitched. Usually an over the top pitcher, Jordan changed his delivery to submarine, also known as sidearm. “I hadn’t pitched much my first few years so I was up for a change,” Jordan said. “The coaches asked me about it and I said I’d do it, so during the winter I started throwing sidearm.” So far, the transition has gone well for Jordan. His ERA has dropped to 2.65 and has pitched 17 innings, more then all of last season. Ball State coach Rich Maloney loves the improvement he’s seen from the junior sidewinder, saying that it adds another weapon to an already potent pitching staff that’s having more success than last season. “You want to have different looks on your staff. With Tyler [Jordan] giving us a look from as a right handed pitcher, you don’t always have that,” Maloney said. “Maybe we don’t have the velocity, but we can come at you with different

GYMNASTICS

The final chapter of an inspiring season and an accomplished career could come to a close on Saturday. Fifth-year senior, Brittney Emmons, will represent the Ball State gymnastics team at NCAA Regionals for the fourth and final time. It will not be the first time she has dealt with a potential end to her career. Emmons suffered a torn Achilles tendon prior to the start of the 2012 gymnastics season. Then a senior, Emmons was going through her final run in practice for the intra-squad meet. After landing short on a rather routine pass, she knew something was wrong. “I looked at my foot and saw that my Achilles wasn’t there,” Emmons described her injury. The raised area of flesh that typically bridges the gap between the calf and the foot becomes non-existent. When the tendon has been torn, the back of the calf — often extremely

angles and it’ll be our way of staying in games.” Sidearm delivery is a rare form of pitching. When releasing a pitch, the pitcher will bend towards the left or right, depending on his dominant arm. He’ll then swing his arm sideways, and release the ball either at his waist or below it. The different delivery can be difficult for batters to face, because the ball is coming at them from an angle he isn’t used to. Ball State junior Cody Campbell has batted against sidearm pitchers before, and said it isn’t an easy task. He said sliders are particularly hard to pick up, because the pitch doesn’t move vertically. The ball will appear to be headed straight, then suddenly jump to the left or right as the batter readies his swing. Campbell also mentioned

SUBMARINE PITCHING STYLE

TYLER JORDAN SEASON STATS 2011

5.00 earned run average, 9 innings pitched, 6 strikeouts, .294 batting average against 2012

8.62 earned run average, 15 2/3 innings pitched, 3 strikeouts, .333 batting average against 2013

2.65 earned run average, 17 innings pitched, 15 strikeouts, .234 batting average against hiding the ball is an advantage submarine pitchers have. With most over hand pitchers, the ball becomes visible soon after the pitcher begins the pitch, allowing the batter a chance to see the ball. A sidearm delivery helps block the batters vision of the ball.

The sidearm, or submarine, style of pitching is difficult for batters to hit because the ball isn’t revealed until later in the throwing motion. It is also difficult to hit because the angle of the ball is closer to the ground. Depending on how fast the pitches are, Campbell adjusts how he bats. “If they’re throwing slower I’ll move up in the box, because it’ll balloon and drop back down,” Campbell said. “I just wait until I can see the ball come out of his hand, and try to track it to see if it’ll hit the strike zone.” For Jordan, hitting the strike zone has been the most difficult part of the transition. Jordan said the best way for him to become consistently accurate in his delivery is to repeat it as many times as possible. Although he won’t blow away batters with power, he

the bottom of the eighth, but Sean Godfrey grounded out to end the inning with Ball State still trailing. The Cardinals wouldn’t get any closer. With Wes Winkle on third in the bottom of the ninth, Tyler Curry struck out and Campbell grounded out to end the game. For Maloney, there’s nothing he wants more than to get back in the dugout against Western Michigan on Friday. “We didn’t represent Ball State the way we wanted to as far as performance,” Maloney said. “The bottom line is that we have to play better baseball to win. Today we didn’t deserve to win.”

swollen when injured — flows into the heel, giving the lower leg the appearance of a cylinder. Emmons decided to undergo surgery to repair her torn Achilles tendon as opposed to strictly rehabilitation. Surgery allows for athletes to recover faster, sometimes cutting recovery time in half. Though the Achilles tendon is one of the thickest and strongest tendons in the body, it is also one of the most commonly injured. According to The Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine, injuries to the Achilles tendon affect 18 in 100,000 people. Soon after the initial surgery she began training for the Miss Ball State Bodybuilding Competition. More time lifting weights and less time in the gymnasium allowed Emmons to get her mind away from the injury. “I was going to need another surgery [in April] after the body building show to fix a minor complication with the first one, and to clean up my ankle,” Emmons said. In May, Emmons made the decision to return to the gymnastics team for a fifth season. Her rehab would continue until the middle of July. Then in August, for the first time in seven months, Emmons was able to begin practicing for

SEASON RECAP BRITTNEY EMMONS, FIFTH-YEAR SENIOR • Five first-place finishes as an all-around performer during the season. • Three top five finishes on the bars. • Eight top five finishes on the vault. • Mid-American Conference Senior Gymnast of the Year for 2013 • All-MAC First Team gymnastics. But her path to full recovery had just begun. “I set my expectations very low,” Emmons said. “If I can make it back on bars, then I’m helping this team.” Emmons was previously an all-around gymnast, meaning she competed in four events. After starting on the bars, she was able to work her way back into the full rotation. “I had my doubts starting at the beginning of the year, but they slowly fizzled away throughout the season,” she said. Though Emmons did not post scores quite as impressive as she had previously in her career, this season was still a

successful one in her eyes. For the first time in her career, she was named to the All-Mid-American Conference First Team. Emmons was also named the MAC Senior Gymnast of the Year. This award was especially important to her because her competitors in the conference vote on the award. “I couldn’t have been more grateful for that because that was all the head coaches that voted,” Emmons said. “To know that they’re the ones that voted for me, it just meant so much.” Emmons is now focused on the Regional competition at Alabama this Saturday. Her goal remains to compete at the highest level she possibly can. The top two all-around competitors (who are not on an advancing team) from each regional will receive an automatic berth to the national championships in Los Angeles. Through her comeback season, Emmons said she has learned to appreciate the little things, and will not lose sight of that regardless of the outcome this weekend. “I’m surely gonna miss it, but I know when I walk out on that floor at regionals I’m gonna leave nothing behind,” Emmons said. “If I make it to Nationals, that’s just icing on the cake.”

hopes to get outs with the moment on his pitches. “I understand that I’m not going to beat players with pitch speed,” Jordan said. “I just need to pound the strike zone and get them to swing and miss.” Although he said it’s been a lot of hard work, Jordan’s glad he made the switch. “For some pitchers it’s hard to change arm angles at all ... But I was never really an completely over the top pitcher,” Jordan said. “I kind of thought that I could do it, but never gave it serious consideration. It ended up being a pretty good surprise.”

Haitian soccer team to play Ball State Cardinals 2-0-2 in 2013 spring games, will play Saturday CONOR HOCKETT CHIEF REPORTER | @ConorHockett

After scouting a potential recruit in Haiti’s game vs. Australia in Indianapolis last September, Ball State soccer coach Craig Roberts got an even bigger commitment than he originally intended from the Caribbean nation. While talking to coach Shek Borkowski about the player in question, Roberts threw out the possibility of an exhibition match between Ball State and Haiti. Because of Borkowski’s coaching experience with FC Indiana, a women’s professional soccer team based out of Indianapolis, Roberts said the Polish-born manager knew about Briner Sports Complex and was comfortable with what the Cardinals had to offer.

The two teams agreed to match up and will play at 3 p.m. on Saturday in Muncie. “I just think it’s a golden opportunity for us to bring soccer on an international level to the community and also expose our student athletes to perhaps a once in a lifetime opportunity,� Roberts said. “I think the fact that they see us as a reputable opponent really shows where we’ve come.� Haiti is coming to Muncie after playing Mexico on Wednesday. Roberts said there isn’t much film on Haiti this season outside of Wednesday’s game, but the respect is high for a team that has played against names like Hope Solo and Abby Wambach in the past. “I think they’re going to be well organized and probably bigger, faster and stronger,� Roberts said. “But if you go against team that’s going to be more experienced, you can’t lose out. You’ve got to meet the challenge.� While he admits he hasn’t

seen the opponent much, Roberts said Haiti’s talent level is comparable to a higher-end Division I program. Despite the physical advantages Haiti has, junior forward Nicole Pembleton said it would be a mistake for Ball State to change anything tactically to try and negate them. “I think we’re just going to try and play our game because that’s the best chance we have at winning,� Pembleton said. “If we try and go to their level or play differently then I think that would affect us [negatively].� Ball State has arguably played only two games against upper-level Division I teams, a home-and-home series with Illinois in 2010 and 2011, and lost both games by a combined eight goals. Despite those results, Roberts said this game is an incredible opportunity for positive attention around his team and the university as a whole. “When we get to showcase

our facilities, it’s just a huge event,� Roberts said. “Soccer people around the state will come to this game.� Saturday isn’t the only time other teams will play at Briner Sports Complex before the regular season. The NCAA permits teams to play five tournament dates and Saturday’s game will serve as one of those for the Cardinals. Ball State is undefeated (20-2) so far this spring and the Cardinals have two more tournament dates left against multiple teams on April 13 and 20. Roberts said his spring games are typically played using 30 to 35-minute halves with unlimited substitutions to provide more teaching moments. “If we were going for a win or score, we can switch to a shift I know we’d be successful, but that’s not the objective,� Roberts said. “The goal in the spring is to develop players into things we’re going to need when we get to championship games.�

Ball State splits series with rival IPFW First home game to take place this Friday against NIU MELEAH FISHBURN STAFF REPORTER | @mleahcue Ball State’s softball team’s offense has been its mainstay this season. But its pitching was the key in a 1-1 split with IPFW. Ball State recorded two of its three runs in the fourth inning in a 3-1 victory. Ball State lost the second, 3-1. Junior pinch hitter Lauren Schroeder shot a single with two outs in the top of the fourth and forced two runs that would be the game winner for the Cardinals. Despite strong pitching from the Mastodons, taking advantage of their defensive errors helped the Cardinals DN FILE PHOTO DYLAN BUELL make up for a lacking ofJunior Jennifer Gilbert snags a fly ball during their game against Purdue on April 12, 2012. Ball State took on IPFW in a doubleheader, winning one and dropping the fense in comparison to their other. recent games.

Junior left fielder Jennifer Gilbert was walked three of the four times she went to the plate in the first game, which improved her Mid-American Conference leading batting average from .484 to .495 An attempted comeback took place in the top of the sixth for the Cardinals as Gilbert doubled to right center, later advancing to third on junior first baseman Taylor Rager’s single to shortstop. Senior outfielder Amanda Carpenter sent Gilbert home for the only run of the game, on a single to left field. Undisciplined at-bats and swinging at the wrong pitches was the cause for poor Ball State offense early in the game, coach Craig Nicholson said. Redshirt junior Audra Sanders led the Cardinal defense in the first game, allowing just two hits and recording five strikeouts over the first six innings. Freshman Nicole Steinbach earned her third save of the season by relieving Sanders

in the seventh inning, finishing with one run and a strikeout. Freshman Kelsey Schifferdecker started in the circle for the second game allowing six hits, three runs and recording three strikeouts over more than four innings. Steinbach came in as relief once again in the bottom of the fifth, though could not finish with a win as the IPFW offense recorded two runs on the inning. Nicholson was pleased with pitching and defense displayed overall by his team as they improved from the weekend

and recorded only one error in the field over both games against IPFW. “The big thing for us is just making a routine play,” Nicholson said. “We did that today and it obviously helped our pitchers out and gave us the chance to win.” Ball State will focus on improving work at the plate against strong pitching as the schedule continues on Friday with a doubleheader against Northern Illinois for the first home game of the season.
