“I would love to stay with SGA, but unfortunately because of this, it would be best for me to focus on getting better, and I really want someone to lead SGA with a positive mind,” Hendershot said in an interview with the Daily News Tuesday. “And I’m getting the help that I need with going to counseling and going to doctors.”

Decision to leave difficult, said Scholl RIVALRY RENEWED Athletic director’s FOR IN-STATE FOES time at Ball State FOOTBALL

cut short by offer

|

DAKOTA CRAWFORD ENTERPRISE REPORTER @dakotacrawford_

Bill Scholl isn’t the kind of guy to walk away from a job unfinished.

It was tough to leave Notre Dame after 23 years working in the athletic department.

And even now, after just two years as Ball State’s athletic director, leaving is difficult.

“It’s hard to go back to those people [who jumped on board when I came to Ball State] and say ‘thank you for jumping on board, but I’m going to leave,’” Scholl said.

“For a guy who is pretty relationship-based, that’s really, really hard to do.”

Scholl will take over duties as Marquette’s vice president and athletic director in midOctober. When Marquette cold-called Scholl about three weeks ago, he knew he had to at least consider the offer.

His deep roots in Catholicism may have been the single biggest factor in making Marquette the perfect job. The 57-year-old Scholl spent his childhood watching Notre Dame play other Catholic powerhouse schools like Marquette in South Bend, Ind. He later graduated from Notre Dame and went on to work more than two decades at the university.

The Ball State football team will host in-state rival Indiana State at 3 p.m. on Saturday. The Cardinals will look to improve to 2-1 on the season.

The Cardinals and Sycamores will battle for the Victory Bell.

It will be the 63rd meeting between the two teams and the first meeting since 2003.

Athletic Director Bill Scholl speaks at a memorial service Sept. 30, 2013. Scholl, who has been the athletic director at Ball State since 2012, will leave the university for an athletic director job at Marquette.

said. “This is arguably Ball State’s biggest rival in football when you look at the 90-year history of our program.”

Offensively, Ball State is led by their two-headed rushing attack. Senior Jahwan Edwards is averaging 95 yards per game, while redshirt junior Horactio Banks is averaging 78.5. The pair has combined for 67 attempts and one touchdown.

Ball State will look to exploit the Indiana State defense that gave up 455 rushing yards to Indiana in week one.

Redshirt sophomore Ozzie Mann will look to lead the offense in his third game as the starter for the Cardinals.

NEW YORK (AP) -- Two planes crashed into the upper floors of both World Trade Center towers minutes apart Tuesday in what the President Bush said was an apparent terrorist attack, blasting fiery, gaping holes in the 110-story buildings. There was no immediate word on deaths or injuries.

Within the hour, an aircraft crashed on a helicopter landing pad near the Pentagon, and the West Wing of the White House was evacuated amid threats of terrorism.

The president ordered a full-scale investigation to “hunt down the folks who committed this act.’’

One of the planes that crashed into the World Trade Center had been hijacked after takeoff from Boston, a U.S. official said, citing a Editor’s note: transmission from the plane.

Carrying on the culture

It’ll be quite the transition period for coaches when Scholl steps out of his Muncie office.

Already in the first year under Ball State president Paul Ferguson, it will be up to those with experience in the department to help sustain the culture Scholl cultivated when a new face arrives.

Scholl already recognized Ferguson’s commitment to athletics despite having only worked with him for a couple months.

“I think our new president is fantastic, and I think it would have been personally and professionally highly rewarding to be able to have the opportunity to work with him for a longer period of time,” Scholl said.

Associate athletic director and head football coach Pete Lembo has led Ball State to consecutive bowl appearances. Though he was originally hired by former athletic director Tom Collins, Lembo is just one of several coaches finding extensive success under Scholl.

Scholl hired seven coaches during his two years with Ball State. Every hire, with the exception of men’s basketball head coach James Whitford, who is in the middle of a rebuilding phase, has maintained or improved their team’s record. “[Scholl] left the place better than he found it,” Lembo said.

Scholl’s goals at Ball State included improving the studentathlete experience, working with coaches to enhance each program and improving the Ball State image. After 23 years of working with one of the most powerful brands in college sports at Notre Dame, Scholl found himself in a much different position at Ball State. Because there is no established fan base here, attendance is reliant upon the performance of teams.

But in two short years, the school has already managed to put multiple programs in position to make post-season appearances. Scholl also helped lead Cardinal Commitment, a $20 million fundraising effort that kicked off in 2013. In June, when the fund had already surpassed the $19 million mark, the school broke ground on a new football facility.

Scholl said then how important private donations are to the athletic department. The Ronald E. and Joan M. Venderly Football Team Complex was one of several additions made possible by the funds, but a $1 million donation from the Venderlys was the primary

For a graphic and more student opinion, go to ballstatedaily.com driving force behind the project.

One highlight of Scholl’s contributions to Ball State has been his activity in alumni relations and working with private donors.

Following the groundbreaking ceremony, Scholl reflected on the level of participation.

“To break ground on the first major project is very exciting,” Scholl said at the time. “It says a lot about the level of support we’ve had from our donor base.”

that it still gets done.

“It is very important to me that Ball State get a leader that [can push] this whole thing to another level,” he said.

In recent seasons, Lembo and Scholl began organizing meetings between all of the school’s head coaches. They share ideas and work to make sure every team is operating at the highest point possible.

Coaches are quick to call the group a second family.

Women’s golf head coach Katherine Mowat has been at Ball State for 10 years, winning MidAmerican Conference Coach of the Year honors twice over that span. She said Scholl is unlike any other leader she has worked with at Ball State, citing his understanding of each team’s specific needs.

“We feel sad right now,” Mowat said.

But like Lembo and other coaches, Mowat said Scholl is more than deserving of the opportunity to advance his career.

Even if it means leaving Ball State behind. Scholl is leaving in midOctober, but he was prepared to stay for a long time.

“In our business, opportunities come along,” Scholl said. “I would not say that I came to [Ball State] with the idea that I would never leave, but I certainly came here with the concept that I’d be very comfortable if I never left.”

The transition

As Scholl steps away from the thriving athletic department, Lembo offers to do anything asked of him to help ease the transition. He expects to work closely with athletic administrators, Ferguson and other head coaches to work through the changes.

Lembo received a contract extension and was named associate athletic director in March following his third season with Ball State.

“That promotion or title adjustment wasn’t just for show,” Lembo said. “It was because of these types of situations. Whatever it takes to help, not just the football program, but all of our programs and our department and our campus moving forward — I’m more than happy to chip in.”

Scholl expects to have some voice in choosing his successor, too. Though he may not be finishing the job, it’s important to him

Wide receiver KeVonn Mabon has been Mann’s favorite target this season. He has 14 receptions and a touchdown while averaging 77 yards per game.

Ball State will look to slow down the offensive attack of Indiana State that put up 49 points and 543 total yards in a win over Tennessee Tech last week.

“From an offensive standpoint, this is an impressive unit,” Lembo said. “It’s a very diverse, no-huddle attack with a lot of no-back sets.”

The Cardinals have only allowed 13.5 points per game this season, ranking in the top 25 in the nation in scoring defense, fumbles recovered and red zone defense.

Redshirt junior linebacker Ben Ingle leads the team in total tackles with 20. Four other Cardinals have 10 or more tackles through the team’s first two games.

Ball State will look to drop Indiana State to 1-2 on the season while winning their seventh consecutive game in the series.

JOSEPH WOYAK STAFF REPORTER jrwoyak@bsu.edu

Since he was 1 year old, McCormick Clouser has lived on a golf course.

He always wanted to play golf. Without it, he doesn’t know what he would do.

“I would be a lost puppy,” he said laughing.

One of two seniors on the Ball State men’s golf team, Clouser’s collegiate eligibility is coming to an end.

Though his career began with Michigan State, he quickly realized the decision to play as a Spartan was made for the wrong reasons.

“Selfish probably, stupid decision just because it’s a Big Ten school,” he said. “When people look at [Mid-American Conference] schools, they

think they’re not cool.”

It didn’t take long, however, for Clouser to feel at home in Muncie.

“At Michigan State you just compete, even amongst teammates,” he said. “The culture at Ball State is a ‘better team, a better you.’”

Since joining Ball State, Clouser’s teams have experienced success the program has not seen in decades. In the 201213 season, the Cardinals qualified for the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1991, and advanced to the NCAA Nationals for the first time since 1986.

Individually, Clouser qualified for the U.S. Amateur

• L ed the Cardinals with a 75.00 scoring average (2014) Championship in July. He said competing in summer tournaments helped raise his level of confidence.

“In the past I never thought I was good enough,” he said.

That confidence has been on full display this season, with two top five finishes already.

Not a vocal player, Clouser has become the team’s unquestioned leader. He treats his teammates like best friends, and helps head coach Mike Fleck mentor the younger players.

“My job is to get the most of out of players and that comes with making them comfortable,” Fleck said. “Familiarity helps everyone.”

•A cademic All-MAC Honorable Mention (2013) •M AC Golfer of the Week (Feb. 14, 2013)

Clouser plans to play professionally after college, but said he tries not to dwell on what will come later in life.

No matter the amount of personal success he may achieve, Clouser is not likely to talk about it. He feels that talking about success can get inside a player’s head and lead to mind games.

That doesn’t mean he doesn’t think about winning. “[I] never want to lose, no matter who it is,” he said.

Ball State senior golfer McCormick Clouser was announced as the Mid-American Conference Men’s Co-Golfer of the Week on Wednesday.

Clouser shares the award with Joe Narro of Bowling Green University.

Clouser tied for fourth place at the Northern Intercollegiate over the weekend. This is the best finish of his college career after finishing with a two-over par 218. The 218 total was only two strokes off of his career best.

The tournament in Sugar Grove, Ill., featured strong competition as 10 of the nation’s top 100 teams from last season and five of the top 50 were competing.

Clouser leads the Cardinals this season through two events with a 75.00 stroke average.

Ball state run game vs.

Indiana State run defense The Cardinals may not see a bigger mismatch all season. The Sycamores are allowing an average of more than 250 yards on the ground per game to start the season, including a 69-carry, 455-yard debacle against Indiana and have given up four rushing touchdowns in the first two games. Jahwan Edwards and Horactio Banks should run wild in this matchup, going up against a significantly weaker opponent than the Big Ten foe they faced last week. Ball State’s game plan will be to give Indiana State a healthy dose of its rushing attack and should have success.

Against Iowa, Mann looked uncomfortable and erratic. That shouldn’t be the case against Indiana State. With defenders keying on Edwards and Banks, Mann should be able to take advantage of one-on-one matchups involving receivers Jordan Williams, KeVonn Mabon and Chris Shillings. Teams haven’t thrown well against Indiana State, completing just 46 percent of their passes, but Mann won’t be asked to push the ball down the field. Instead, he’ll likely throw short, quick passes and let his receivers make plays after the catch.

Indiana State’s offensive line is one of its strong suits this season, giving quarterback Mike Perish plenty of time to find receivers. On the other side, Ball State’s defensive line has been strong against the run, but hasn’t proven it can get consistent pressure on quarterbacks through the first two games. As a unit, Ball State’s defensive line hasn’t recorded a sack, and struggled to disrupt the Iowa passing game, which recorded more than 350 passing yards. Considering Perish’s success this season, the Indiana State offense has the ability to put up a lot of points if Ball State’s defensive line doesn’t step up.

ADVANTAGE:

Ball State secondary vs. Indiana State receivers Indiana State’s receivers have been underwhelming to say the least this season. With the exception of Gary Owens, the Sycamores don’t have a receiver who has accumulated more than seven catches or 76 yards, which could be trouble for them going up against an experienced Ball State secondary. Eric Patterson, Martez Hester and Brian Jones have all played against stronger receiving corps over the past few seasons, and Indiana State won’t throw anything at them they haven’t seen before. As long as the Ball State secondary doesn’t bite on play action passes, they should have success against Indiana State’s passing attack.

Obama talks strategy

MAN INVOLVED IN BSU FRAUD CASE PLEADS GUILTY IN UNRELATED SCHEME

President authorizes airstrikes on Syria, deploys more troops | THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON (AP) — Opening a new military front in the Middle East, President Barack Obama authorized U.S. airstrikes inside Syria for the first time Wednesday night, along with expanded strikes in Iraq as part of a broad mission to root out the violent Islamic State militants whose reign of terror has spread across both countries.

“We will hunt down terrorists who threaten our country, wherever they are,” Obama declared in a prime-time address to the nation from the White House. “This is a core principle of my presidency: If you threaten America, you will find no safe haven.”

Obama announced that he was dispatching nearly 500 more U.S. troops to Iraq to assist that country’s besieged security forces, bringing the total number of American forces sent there this summer to more than 1,000. He also called on Congress to authorize a program to train and arm Syrian rebels who are fighting both the Islamic

State militants and Syrian President Bashar Assad.

Obama’s plans amounted to a striking shift for a president who rose to political prominence in part because of his early opposition to the Iraq war. While in office, he has steadfastly sought to wind down American military campaigns in the Middle East and avoid new wars — particularly in Syria, a country where the chaos of an intrac-

table civil war has given the Islamic State space to thrive and move freely across the border with Iraq.

Speaking on the eve of the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, Obama’s plans were also an admission that years of American-led war in the Middle East have not quelled the terror threat emanating from the region.

Obama insisted he was not returning U.S. combat troops

“But I want the American people to understand how this effort will be different from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It will not involve American combat troops fighting on foreign soil,” he added.

JIMMY JOHN’S REOPENS IN VILLAGE

The Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches in the Village will reopen at 10 a.m. Sept. 11, after over two months of remodeling.

Jimmy John’s expanded the restaurant by 1,000 square feet and went from six to 17 tables.

Site manager Steve Arnold said they remodeled because the restaurant hadn’t been remodeled in 10 years. He also used the opportunity to increase the size of the restaurant.

Jimmy John’s closed July 1 and planned to open in mid-August. “Minor setbacks, like having to move the emergency exit, set them back a few weeks,” he said. Jimmy John’s will not have any specials for the opening.

President of SGA Nick Wilkey said the issues regarding the budget were resolved this week.

“I made a mistake on our end; we thought there was $2,000 in the student senate budget, [but] there was actually $3,500,” he said.

“It was more of a miscommunication.”

“It was encouraging to see that a majority were behind our platform points and what we plan to do with the budget,” treasurer Sidney Staples said.

“Part of the student senate budget goes to the Student Government Coalition Conference which SGA hosts,” Wilkey said. “They invite other student governments from universities across the country to discuss and share ideas on student government.”

Another part of the student senate budget is used for discretionary funds. Staples said this can include business cards, name tags and other supplies. The senate also has the option to use the money to organize events.

“SGA will spend $1,000 to cosponsor a bowl bus if the football team makes it that far,” he said. “If not, that money will go to the student senate.”

There was a $4,933.71 rollover from last year’s SGA budget.

Love, friendship pace twin sisters SCHOOL Runners look to TO HONOR finish careers by ALUMNI each other’s side 1964 team will be recognized Saturday

KARA BIERNAT STAFF REPORTER | ktbiernat@bsu.edu

Ball State’s Family Weekend is nothing out of the ordinary for Ball State cross country runners Courtney and Caitlynn Edon.

These two don’t just have an athletic bond — the Edon twins have spent their entire lives as teammates, both on and off the track.

Closer than average sisters, the twins have shared a bond through running since they were freshmen in high school.

Influenced by her older brother, Courtney has been running since the sixth grade.

“Courtney has always been real fast,” Caitlynn said. “I remember when she used to kick all the boys’ butts at tag way back in the day.”

Initially ignoring her family’s love of running, Caitlynn kept her focus on tennis, until her freshman year of high school.

Years later, Courtney and Caitlynn are the only seniors on the Cardinals’ roster.

Their love for running has created more than a friendship, but also success that they would not have had without each other’s help.

During races, the twins motivate each other to perform at the top of their games, encouraging one another on the racetrack. “[Courtney] says exactly what I need to hear to make me push myself harder,” Caitlynn said. “I like being able to see her close to me during a race because I know I’m not going through the pain alone.

She’ll be a few strides ahead of me and she’ll be yelling at me to get up there with her.”

Along with the on-track benefits comes the advantage of living together. Always being around one another keeps the sisters caught up with the “little things” in life.

Sisters Caitlynn and Courtney Edon run on the track on April 14 at Ball State. The twin seniors have been running together all of their lives and look to one another for motivation.

“Having [Caitlynn] at home with me helps, because we get to roll each other out and get each other up in the morning to run and [work out],” Courtney said. “We’re so close that we don’t even get tired of it.

We’re both nursing majors and, before this semester, have had about every class together too, so it’s just normal.”

Assistant coach Joe Rogers enjoys the enthusiasm and dedication the girls show on a day-to-day basis, and considers it a joy to teach

the athletes. “[The twins will] do anything you ask, are full of enthusiasm and want to be successful. As a coach, you really can’t ask for more than the effort these ladies have given me,” Rogers said. “Their enthusiasm has been incredibly enjoyable for me to watch ...

I think they’re going to do some really good things.”

With their college eligibility coming to an end after this year, Courtney and Caitlynn are keeping each other moti-

vated to finish their Ball State careers on a high note.

While cutting down on their times is a goal for the season, their main focus is to simply embrace being teammates one last time.

“Looking back at our running career together, I’ll always remember the many memories we’ve shared together,” Caitlynn said. “It’s been great having her by my side through this whole experience. Gotta love being able to run with your best friend.”

In 1964, the Ball State football team finished the season with a record of 5-3. The Cardinals were coconference champions of the Heartland Collegiate Conference, sharing the title with in-state rival Butler.

On Sept. 13, the university will recognize the 1964 squad, as the current Ball State football team hosts another in-state rival, Indiana State.

Fifteen members from the 1964 team will attend the ceremony, including the starting quarterback Marv Rettenmund.

“I think it’s gonna be a good experience, it’s been 50 years,” Rettenmund said. “It was a good time in my life.”

Joining the former gunslinger will be Merv Rettenmund, his brother. Merv played halfback for the Cardinals, setting the school’s single-season rushing record and eventually getting drafted by the Dallas Cowboys.

A two-sport star, Merv also played baseball while at Ball State, hitting .321 for his collegiate career. He was a two-time All-Indiana Collegiate Conference first-team selection and later became a charter member of the Ball State Athletics Hall of Fame.

Center Norm “Red” Troth, a cocaptain of the team, will also be in attendance Sept. 13, and he is looking forward to reuniting with his teammates.

“Oh, it’s great, I talked to a few of them on the phone and it’s nice to get to see them again,” he said.

“It’s a good bunch of guys, and a good bunch of athletes. It’s a privilege for me and my teammates to be recognized.”

The returning Cardinals will receive a tour of campus at noon, lunch at 1:30 p.m. and will be recognized on the field during the game.

Sept. 13’s kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m. and will air on ESPN3.

Accessory regains popularity, available in many designer brands

once-popular ‘90s fashion accessory is gaining popularity again, this time on the red carpet and amongst celebrities.

The fanny pack first became popular in 1988, when it was named hottest product of the year by AdWeek Magazine.

Since its debut, the fanny pack, or “bum bag” as it’s known in Austraila and the United Kingdom, has been redesigned and marketed in a multitude of styles and brands.

Louis Vuitton, Prada and Chanel offer their own versions of the product.

Louis Vuitton sells a canvas, brass and leather piece, priced at $1,180, according to its website.

More affordable options are available online and in big-box retailers like Target and Wal-Mart.

Actor Matthew McConaughey and musician Rihanna have both been spotted wearing fanny packs in recent months.

Tailgating, while a long-time favored tradition amongst football fans, is an art. There may not be specific rules, but there are guidelines that can be helpful. REMINDER: This weekend

1

CLOTHING OPTIONS DO: Dress in your teams colors and show your school and team spirit. Nobody wants to tailgate with an average Joe dressed in jeans and a plain T-shirt.

Daily routes to Indy

DON’T: That being said, although it may seem like a good idea, never go shirtless or use body paint. It’s messy and there are some people who you just do not want to see shirtless.

HELPFUL TIP: Add a little more flair to your outfit

for the big game and add colored beads, temporary tattoos or ribbons.

PARKING

DO: Arrive early and obtain a prime parking space for

the maximum tailgating experience. Try to park near a grassy area or the end of a row.

DON’T: Use more than one parking space. Don’t be

There are other people trying to have a good time, too.

HELPFUL TIP: Clean up your tailgate area before you

leave. This is simply a courtesy to the school who owns the parking lot you’ve been partying in.

is Family Weekend. Maintain a sense of dignity and pride when tailgating with family and friends. Set an example for our school. Save the wild partying for later in the evening.

3 4

FOOD DO: Plan your food menu ahead of time. Know what you’d like to serve and do prep work at least one or two days before the big game.

DON’T: Forget to pack the essentials such as condiments, napkins, plates, cups and utensils.

HELPFUL TIP: Ask people who you know are participating in your tailgate to help you with the food prep.

Chances are they’ll be more than willing to help out.

SEATING

DO: Make sure you have enough seating for the anticipated amount of people attending your tailgate.

Nobody wants to go around with the word “Igloo” imprinted on their behind for the rest of the day.

DON’T:

Be disrespectful to the people you tailgate with as well as the people around you. Pay attention to your surroundings. It’s OK to join in on other’s tailgates, but just be courteous.

HELPFUL TIP:

If there are older family and friends with you, offer them a seat to sit in. Politeness is still alive and well here.

All around Ball State and Muncie, hotels are completely booked, waiting for the flood of families coming to campus this weekend.

The hotels around campus that said they were full are Best Western, Holiday Inn Express and Suites, Hampton Inn and Suites, Fairfield Inn, Comfort Inn and Suites, Super 8, Days Inn and the Baymont Inn and Suits. Some of these hotels were booked as early as July.

However, this doesn’t mean all the workers dread a full building, like Matt Winenger, a senior psychology major and employee at the Fairfield Inn. “It’s busy, but kind of fun interacting with all the parents. I’ve been working here for about three years,” Winenger said. “My parents have stopped coming down, so it’s nice to talk to the other people about it, especially if it’s their first time. This will be my fourth family weekend.”

A.J. Sharma, a freshman computer science major and employee at the Super 8, said the weekend is special. “[It’s] kind of special with all the parents coming in,” Sharma said. “For us it is just another big weekend, but also it’s Family Weekend. It’s a big thing for Ball State and it’s a big thing for us.”
