Ultimate Frisbee club honors late friend and teammate ______________________ BY KATE SHELDON for the Cal Times ____________________________ On Fri., April 11, California University of Pennsylvania’s Ultimate Frisbee team was away at Saint Vincent College for a game that was held in memorial of Garrick Lackey, a student who passed away in a car accident last semester. Lackey was involved in numerous organizations on campus, including Student Government, Student Activities Board and the Ultimate Frisbee club. Andy McLynch and Joe Terrana were two of Lackey’s teammates and friends that helped set up this game to contribute to his scholarship fund. Terrana, a junior and business major, said that Saint Vincent’s Ultimate Frisbee team
approached him about hosting this game. “Saint Vincent came to me and asked if we wanted to do this with them and they told me about the donation jar they were having for Garrick’s scholarship,� Terrana said. “I talked to our club about it and we were all really interested in the idea. We set it up and everything, and then they told us about how they were going to donate all of the proceeds to his scholarship.� Cal U’s team also wore jerseys in honor of Garrick with his number on the right sleeve. Terrana said that Saint Vincent approaching them first about the game showed how much of an impact Garrick had on the whole Ultimate Frisbee community. McLynch, a junior and political science major, said he was extremely happy with the amount of people at the game.
“Usually we have trouble even getting people from our club to show up to things,� McLynch said. “The fact that we were able to get triple the amount of people at that game was huge for us, and even Saint Vincent’s crowd was big and the support from everyone was great.� McLynch also said that the game would have meant more to Garrick than anyone because he was always the one to support other teams and was a big advocate for showing sportsmanship, which was apparent at this game. Lindsey Leonard, a junior and communications major who attended the game, was a very close friend of Garrick’s. “I’m speechless about the game, honestly,� Leonard said. “It was a rainy day and the sun came out right before they announced Garrick’s name and
number and both teams took the Ă€HOG 7KHUH ZDV VXFK D SUHVHQFH of Garrick there.â€? Leonard said Garrick was always good at bringing people together and still manages to do so. “It was amazing to see another school put together an event to honor him and raise money toward his scholarship,â€? Leonard said. “Cal U and SVC worked together and at the end of the day that’s what Garrick was all about.â€? All together from the game, Cal U and Saint Vincent raised $139.81 to put toward the Garrick A. Lackey Memorial Scholarship, which is more than halfway endowed. “When Cal U cheered, ‘1, 2, 3, We did it for Garrick!’ after the JDPH WHDUV Ă€OOHG P\ H\HV EXW , couldn’t stop smiling,â€? Leonard said. “This is just the beginning of Garrick’s legacy.â€?

The early morning drive from California, Pa. to Pittsburgh–– and the purchase he’ll make once he arrives––is motivated by Maggio’s appreciation for the format. “It has a better audio quality to me. It’s nice to have a digital version of the music to carry around with you and whatnot, but when I’m at home and I want to listen to a full album it [has] a whole other aesthetic to it of actually pulling out the record and placing it on the turntable and setting the needle down and letting it go.â€? Record Store Day provides retail locations with a larger than normal inventory for collectors to choose from, but Maggio sees the record store as a viable shopping destination year-round. “It’s just a lot of fun going out to them because whenever I do go to a record store I don’t really have in my mind specifically one record that I want to get.

Diane Epertherner Buffington coordinated and helped to choreograph the production. She is a faculty member in Cal U’s Department of Theatre and Dance, as well as the Psychology Department. “Each dance that has been choreographed by faculty or students will focus on a sensation,â€? she said. “When dancing, ZH H[SHULHQFH VR PDQ\ GLÍżHUHQW senses, and it is our perception of that sensation that allows us to produce movement with emotion.â€? These Cal U students have choreographed numbers for the show: Taylor Brookings, Jessica Desvarro, Elizabeth Hartwell, Jocelyn Majernik, Paige Moody, Katey Sheehan, Bonnie Sproul, Emily Tompkins and Paige Williams.
Stage managers are Emily Cutwright and Sarah Martik. Ticket price is $12 for patrons of all ages. Cal U students with valid CalCards pay 50 cents, plus a $5 deposit that is refunded at the show. For more information or to order tickets (with a credit card) by phone, call the Steele Hall %R[ 2΀FH DW

Hilsey thought that he could potentially make a poem by doing that, and after getting a big UHVSRQVH IURP WKH ÀUVW SRHP he’s continued to do them since. Michelle Rowekamp, a junior graphic design major, came to the gallery’s opening on April 8 with her aesthetic theory class, but a lot of her friends were
involved in the show. Rowekamp said that she thinks the idea behind the gallery is incredible. “I love the collaboration between artists and poets, because LW LV WZR GLÍżHUHQW IRUPV RI DUW bounced off of each other,â€?

Chelsea Eckels and Brittney Jones beside their collaborative effort for the gallery,
Jones and Eckels both said that they were pleased with this year’s outcome of 21 group entries. “I actually had an hour before everyone else came, even to help, by myself, and I sat down in the middle of the gallery and had a complete geeky moment of oh my gosh it’s real,� Eckels said. Eckels also said that she’d like to come back years after she’s graduated and still see that the Collidescope Gallery is still an annual event. “I would love to come back to the annual Collidescope Gallery and see it be huge,� Eckels said.

_______________________ “August: Osage County“ came to California University of Pennsylvania this past weekend—except Meryl Streep, nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role at the Academy Awards, and Julia Roberts, nominated for Best Actress in a Supporting Role, weren’t with it. Cal U’s Department of Theatre and Dance performed the award-winning play written by Tracy Letts with four shows this past weekend. Thursday, Friday and Saturday night’s performances began at 8 p.m., with an additional showing on Saturday at 2 p.m. All performances were held in Steele Hall’s Mainstage Theatre. “I like coming to the plays to support the theatre department and the people in it,� Marshall Craig, a sophomore history major, said. Ester Verkouw played Violet, while Madelaine Dudley played
the leading role of Barbara. Michael Slavin, chair of the theatre department at Cal U, directed the play. “August: Osage County� deals with addiction, cheating, death and betrayal, yet managed to get several audible laughs out of the crowd. The more dramatic scenes left audience members gasping and with their mouths left wide open. “The funniest part was towards the end of Scene Two. Beverly (played by Jason Dohoda) got up from the dinner table and pretended he was choking, when instead he was choking on the fear that the animal produces before its slaughter,� Craig said. While this is the last play of the year for the Cal U Department of Theatre and Dance, the Spring Dance Performance will be held May 1, 2 and 3 at 8 p.m. in the Mainstage Theatre as well. Admission for Cal U students is free.
