CMU Sunoo Lecture Welcomes All October 30
Marie Dennis To Deliver “Active Nonviolence: A Paradigm Shift To A More Peaceful World” For the fourth year, Central Methodist University will host its annual Sunoo World Peace Lecture Series on Tuesday, Oct. 30 at CMU’s main campus in Fayette. Marie Dennis, co-president of Pax Christi International – the global Catholic peace movement – will present “Active Nonviolence: A Paradigm Shift To A More Peaceful World.” The lecture will be held on the fourth floor of the Inman Student and Community Center. It begins at 7 p.m., and is free and open to the public. Dennis has held her position with Pax Christi International since 2007 and now shares the role with Bishop Kevin Dowling from South Africa. She worked for the Maryknoll Missioners from 1989 to 2012, which included 15 years as director of the Maryknoll Office for Global Concerns. Dennis was one of the primary organizers of the April 2016 Conference of Nonviolence and Just Peace that was cosponsored by the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, as well as Pax Christi International. The conference called on the Catholic Church to recommit to the centrality of gospel nonviolence, proposed the World Day of
Peace 2017 Theme on nonviolence, and started the Catholic Nonviolence Initiative. In
Marie Dennis
2016, Dennis received the Public Peace Prize and was named Person of the Year by the National Catholic Reporter. She has served on the national boards of the Alliance for Peacebuilding, JustFaith Ministries, Sojourners magazine, the Jublilee USA Network, and several other organizations. Dennis is the author or co-author of seven books and editor of the Orbis Book, Choosing Peace: The Catholic Church Returns to Gospel Nonviolence. Dennis received her master’s degree in moral theology from Washington Theological Union and has honorary doctorates from Trinity Washington University and Alvernia University. She is a lay woman and a mother of six. Central Methodist’s Sunoo World Peace Lecture Series is held in honor of the late Dr. Harold Sunoo – former chair of the department of history, professor of political science, and distinguished professor of then-Central Methodist College. Sunoo and his sons established the series to enhance the spirit of academic and professional excellence, ethical leadership, and social responsibility in the pursuit of peace throughout the world.
Janssen Focuses On Advocacy During CMU Gaddis Lecture 2009 Alumnus Highlights The Importance Of Influencing Others For A Cause Chris Janssen graduated from Central Methodist University in 2009, and since has gone on to pursue his passion for promoting advocacy and fighting for causes that are important to him. Janssen presented “Advocacy Everywhere: Lessons Learned From Influencing Public Policy” during CMU’s 35th annual Merrill E. Gaddis Lecture, which was held at CMU’s main campus in Fayette on Thursday, Oct. 11. As the regional advocacy coordinator for Missouri REALTORS®, Janssen promotes advocacy for property rights. He primarily works with local REALTOR® boards, associations, and individual brokers, but also works with local REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) and Advocacy committees to develop plans for candidate recruitment and endorsements, elected official engagement, collaboration with stakeholders, and volunteerism. “Advocacy is not just about influencing public policy – I think, now, it’s about influencing public opinion,” Janssen said during his lecture at Central. “If you can control the opinion, you can control the policy.” According to Janssen, a broad range of activities are involved with advocacy campaigns, including research, public education, lobbying, voter education, and funding – all combined to influence public policy. Janssen spoke in depth about identifying problems, devising strategies, making progress, and ultimately working toward achieving solutions. Once a problem is defined, Janssen highlighted
the importance of finding root causes by simply asking “why?” in order to draft a path to move forward. Mapping out the internal and external forces is crucial, he said, which includes identifying the players involved, how they will be impacted, and what their responses will be. “The better we understand those, the more likely we’ll achieve the desired result,” he said.
Chris Janssen It is important to select the right tools to achieve the overall goal, according to Janssen, who said there is great value in figuring out ways to persuade people to change their minds. With that said, as part of the process, one must reach out to the undecided, rally
those who share the same views, and initially avoid those who may be opposed. Measuring goals and outcomes – both immediate and long term – is another pivotal step. “If you don’t evaluate the impact of what you’ve achieved, what’s the point?” Janssen said. Most importantly, Janssen spoke about how one must trust the process, adapt, and never stop when working toward a plan. “Even if you don’t succeed, you have to learn from your tactics, figure out how to implement them in the future, and change your campaign for the next time around,” he said. “The most successful advocates never say ‘mission accomplished’ – they continue the education of the public. There’s always more work to do.” Janssen graduated from Central Methodist with honors in political science. He was recruited by both the University’s Honors Program and Eagles varsity football program, and was awarded the 2009 Judge Andrew J. Higgins Award for Excellence in PreLaw Studies. While working for Missouri REALTORS®, he earned an MPA from the Truman School of Public Affairs at the University of Missouri with an emphasis in public policy and non-profit management. The Gaddis Lecture is sponsored by CMU’s Kappa Chapter of Pi Gamma Mu, which was established in 1935 by Dr. Merrill Gaddis (1891-1958), who was professor of history and later chair of the History and Political Science Department. He served at CMU – then Central College – for nearly 30 years.

Top Admissions Recruiter Julia Mahurin Returns To CMU
Holds Record Number For Mid-Missouri Recruitment; Now Zoning In On Kansas City Behind many students who make the tough decision where they’d like to attend college is usually a talented admissions recruiter who stood out from the rest. A large number of high school students chose to attend Central Methodist University between 2007 and 2015 thanks to one talented, record-holding recruiter. During her last year at Central Methodist (2015), Julia Mahurin, a Glasgow native, individually recruited 95 students to Central – impressively surpassing admissions goals for her recruitment area by over 20 students. Now, she has returned to CMU – her alma mater – with the mission to once again exceed goals for the benefit of Central. “Central Methodist is a fantastic University – one that helped me discover my passions and pursue them in my profession,” Mahurin said. “I’m so excited to have the opportunity to once again shine light on the excellence of Central, and encourage high school students to discover it for themselves.” Mahurin will be recruiting for Central’s Admissions Department part time, focusing on the Kansas
Julia Mahurin
City area as a regional admission representative. She, her husband, Dan, and their children reside in Grain Valley – just outside of Kansas City. “Julia’s impressive background recruiting students for Central makes her the perfect fit for our team,” said Dr. Joe Parisi, vice president for Enrollment Management at CMU. “Through her talent and passion for Central, I believe she will guide prospective students in seeing CMU as a place they belong, therefore enriching our efforts to meet enrollment goals.” When Mahurin worked for Central years ago, she began her career as an admission representative. During her eight years at the University, she was promoted to assistant director of admission, and then associate director of admission. It was in 2015 when she relocated to Grain Valley, where she is now the owner of The Mahurin Agency, a property and casualty insurance company. Mahurin graduated from Central Methodist in 2007, and holds a bachelor’s degree in communication studies.
Central Methodist Admissions Hires Alumna Lexie Enyeart Will Recruit Students In Northeast Missouri
There are few better suited for the job of recruiting students to Central Methodist University than a former student who had an excellent experience there. Lexie Enyeart, a Salisbury native who received a bachelor’s degree in education from Central in 2016, is a perfect example. She recently joined the CMU Admissions team as an admissions representative in hope of guiding prospective students to attend the same campus she views as the foundation of her success. “Being an alumna is something I take pride in,” Enyeart said. “When I was a student here, I loved how the school, students, and employees – they all felt like one big family. When God presented me with the opportunity to come back to CMU’s family, I couldn’t say no. I want every student to have the same college experience and quality that I had, and the best way to have that is through CMU.” As an admissions representative, Enyeart will work to recruit prospective students within her assigned territory – northeast Missouri, and regularly communicate with the students and their families. Additionally, she will develop relationships with-
various high school representatives, and spend time traveling to college fairs and other special events. “We continue to experience strong metrics as we drive forward with our efforts,” said Dr. Joe Parisi, vice president for enrollment management. “Our momentum is attracting great people and I’m delighted to welcome Lexie as our latest team member. Her passion for assisting students and energy are unprecedented, and she has the drive to be one of our best.” During her time as a student at CMU, Enyeart was both a student ambassador and a peer tutor/writing assistant. After graduation, she was a third grade teacher at St. Pius X in Moberly. She also substitute taught for Brunswick High School, and worked part time for Richards Farms Inc. in Keytesville as a record keeper. She continues a part-time job through her own business, Mix Masters, as the owner and disc jockey for weddings, parties, and special events.

In this position, she assists with processing incoming admission documentation, and communicates to CGES staff and CMU students.

She was a substitute teacher at both Glasgow Elementary in Glasgow, Mo., and New Franklin Elementary in New Franklin, Mo. “I’m excited to bring Ms. Caryn Jackson to the team,” said Aimee Sage, director of Admissions for CGES. “As an alumna of the traditional campus, she has a deep love and commitment to CMU,
and is very passionate about quickly and efficiently serving our prospective students.” Jackson received a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from CMU in 2013.

Central Methodist University Chorale Honored With Invitation
Will Perform At Missouri Music Educators Association Conference in January 2019 Central Methodist University’s Chorale singing group continues to wow its audiences across Missouri and beyond. The Chorale has been invited to represent the University at the 81st annual Missouri Music Educators Association (MMEA) Workshop/Conference, “Appear and Inspire,” at Tan-Tar-A in Osage Beach in January, 2019, according to Claude Westfall, director of choral activities and associate professor of music at CMU. “For a choir, band, or orchestra, this is like a state title,” Westfall said. “This is an amazing victory that CMU has been chosen for our sound even against much bigger schools.” According to Westfall, Central Methodist competes against larger institutions such as UMKC College of Arts and Sciences in Kansas City, Webster
University and Washington University, both in St. Louis, Missouri State University in Springfield, University of Missouri in Columbia, and others. Central’s Chorale has not been invited to perform at the event since 1984, Westfall said. “The Chorale has continually grown,” he said. “They began really believing in themselves and developed the pride to become better.” Their application was one of nearly 200 submitted for the opportunity to perform. Also representing a Central Methodist musical experience at the MMEA Conference will be two Central alumni, who are directors of ensembles from Missouri high schools invited to perform. Dustin McKinney (’08) will be directing the Kearney High School Chamber Choir, and Chuck Moore (’91) will direct the Sullivan High School Symphonic Band.
In addition to the Chorale’s impressive invitation from the MMEA, they have also been invited to perform at the National ACDA Convention in March, 2019, as one of six choirs in Missouri to sing for the 40th anniversary celebration of the Robert Ray Gospel Mass, according to Westfall. “What makes me so proud of the Chorale is the individual special traits – each and every student loves to perform. They each sing every day from their hearts,” Westfall said. The Chorale goes on tours during the academic year, and has sung at impressive locations such as the National Cathedral in Washington D.C., the Nashville Symphony, and many United Methodist churches across the nation – gaining more acclaim each year.
CMU Music Ministry Degree Moves Toward Accreditation National Association Of Schools Of Music Grants Plan Approval Central Methodist University’s Bachelor of Music in Music Ministry degree has been granted Plan Approval through the National Association of Schools of Music (NASM). Because the degree is relatively new, Plan Approval is required to work toward Final Approval, which will occur after the program matures. The NASM Commission voted to accept the University’s application for Plan Approval, commenting “on a well-designed degree intended for students aspiring to enter the field of church music and wor-
ship arts.” As an accredited member of NASM, the new degree must maintain operations and programs with NASM standards. “CMU is excited to offer a degree program that meets the needs of its students,” said Provost Rita Gulstad. “For years, students have expressed an interest in music ministry and now CMU can provide an accredited program of study to meet their needs. I am thrilled at the opportunity.” The Music Ministry major takes much of the tra-
ditional coursework that Music Education or Music Performance majors would take, with the addition of specialized classes in commercial music styles, music technology, music business, musical leadership, and Bible studies. Central’s music program will undergo its standard accreditation process, which occurs every 10 years, in 2020.

CMU Awards Gulstad Transfer Scholarships
Four From State Fair Community College Heading To Central Methodist
Central Methodist University’s newly-introduced - Gulstad Transfer Scholarship is benefiting students from community colleges across Missouri. Named after longtime CMU Provost Dr. Rita Gulstad, the scholarship is specifically designed for community college students who want to complete a four-year degree. Central Methodist is delivering qualified community colleges with $5,000 to award in either single or multiple annual scholarships. “CMU recognizes the value of a community college degree, and wants to continue opportunities for community college graduates at CMU,” Gulstad said.
Alexsis Barnett
Recently, four students from State Fair Community College were chosen as recipients of the scholarship, and will receive $1,000 over two semesters. They include Alexsis Barnett of Sedalia, Jack Daugherty of Windsor, Amber Miles of Leonard, and BreAnna Peck of Green Ridge. “We are excited to provide this opportunity to non-traditional, transfer or returning students, especially since these students are frequently left out of the scholarship equation,” said Dr. Deborah DeGanDixon, associate dean of CMU’s College of Graduate and Extended Studies (CGES). “This scholarship can help dedicated transfer students achieve his or her educational goals.”
Jack Daugherty
Barnett plans to attend CMU as a business management major. Her career goal is to manage a business or work in human resources. Daugherty said his plans are to major in elementary education and eventually become an elementary school teacher. Miles will be pursuing a business management degree at Central Methodist. She wants to continue to work in the banking industry, and work her way up to a branch manager position. Peck plans to major in health sciences at CMU. She said her goal is to work as a dental hygienist while she pursues her degree, and later work as an office manager for a dental practice.

SPOTLIGHT: Scott Queen, Executive Director of Marketing & Communications By Amanda Steinman, Writer
“I love Fayette, my new home. I love being a part of this community, going to church here, and digging in and loving life,” said Scott Queen, the Executive Director of Marketing at Central Methodist University. He runs the communication and marketing efforts, and also manages a team that runs our website and handles video, print publications, and digital advertising. Prior to coming to Central, Queen worked at the Topeka Capital Journal and as the managing editor of The Suburban Newspapers of Greater St. Louis for 13 years. For the past 21 years Queen worked
as the Executive Director of Marketing at Lindenwood University in St. Charles, MO; where he also received his master degree. When asked why he decided to come to Central, he quickly answered, “My dear friend Joe Parisi told me how great it is at Central and he wanted me to be to able to experience it as well.” When asked what he wanted to improve at CMU, Queen responded, “There’s a lot of opportunity to get better but my two areas of focus over the next year are more video content on social media and our website, and improvements to search engine optimi-
zation and accessibility for our website.” Queen is a native of Webster Groves, a suburb of St. Louis, Missouri, but he and his wife, Tina Queen, made the move to Fayette in January of 2018. Tina also accepted a job at Central working in the financial aid office. In his free time, Queen enjoys collecting St. Louis Cardinal bobble heads and watching crime shows. He enjoys crime shows because he is the only one in his family who is not a police officer. “It must be genetic,” he quipped.

REAL OR FAKE” The Moon Landing By Peyton Bowman, Writer
Have you ever wondered what is real and what is fake? Is it all the government or is science actually right? In this conspiracy theory column I will break down whether a conspiracy theory is real or just a hoax. In this debunking I will discuss the moon landing. Theory: on July of 1969 we watched the iconic "One Small Step For man, one giant leap for mankind" as the first men in space took their first steps on the moon. Or did we? The theory goes that the United States faked the first moon landing to win a "race to space" against the Soviets. The Moon landing we saw was just a set at Hollywood or Area 51. What was broadcasted was simply a short film. One piece of evidence that seems to make it clear is the flag. The American flag is seen to have ripples in it as if the wind is blowing. There is no wind in space, so how did that happen. There were also 10
deaths according to NASA that happened as a cover up to the false Moon landing. How it started: In
1976 there was a book that was published titled “We Never Went to the Moon” written by Bill Kaysing.
In this book it claimed all the conspiracy theorists were right that the probability of a successful landing on the moon was about 0.0017%. It would have been a lot easier just to fake it. Real or fake: I think the conspiracy is real. NASA is doing a terrible job at backing it up if it is real. I do think that yes they did plan on actually doing a launch but it came down to the wire they needed to pretend like it actually happened. When asked if they think the moon landing real or fake, some students had differing opinions. Bethany DuCharme said "No because there is no video proof of people in a spaceship going up. There is only a landing and a launch," and Malik Hughes said "Yeah I think it is real because I believe what NASA claims." So, what do you think? Did it really happen?
Anatomage Table Up And Running At Central Methodist Top-Of-The-Line Technology Progresses In Support Of Digital U Initiative One of the most advanced pieces of visualization technology in medical science – an Anatomage Table – is now assembled and working in Stedman Hall of Science at Central Methodist University. The table is a clinical tool that will soon be used in anatomy and physiology classes at Central. It is also being used in many of the world’s leading medical schools and institutions. “We’re looking forward to training on it,” said Dr. Megan Hess, chair of the Division of Health Professions. “The Anatomage Table is not only the best alternative to actual dissection, but we have acquired additional modules that include animals as well. It will support so many of our students at CMU.” Hess, who with other faculty members will spend significant time training to use the Anatomage Table, said it will give students a 3D perspective not only on how a body is put together, but how its systems interrelate. Central’s Director of Digital Learning, Drew Robinson, was chatting with members of the University’s Board of Trustees in the spring about ways to incorporate new forms of digital learning in the classroom when the Anatomage Table came up in conversation. Alumna Sondra Spaulding (’57) was influenced by Robinson’s passion, and that coupled with a desire for students at her alma mater to have the best, led to a generous donation to cover the cost of the table. The Anatomage Table is a long touchscreen table that runs on Windows 10. It is supported by high-powered personal computing beneath the table, as well as impressively performing software that features fly-throughs, quizzes, flashcards, self-study, and annotation right on the table.

A Long Way From Home and Finding Our Groove By Marissa Gulley, Writer
Moving to another state for the first time ever can be pretty scary. You’re going to a new place where you don’t know anyone, and you’re away from your friends and family. Although it isn’t easy at first, you have the opportunity to form new friendships and you get to experience living in a whole new setting. I recently moved from Orange County, California to begin my first semester here at CMU. I definitely experienced a culture shock moving from the city to a rural area. I am used to having several different fast food options within a five-minute drive from my house. I am not used to having to go 30 minutes away for the nearest Chick Fil A. In California,
there are a lot of things to do near my house such as going to several different beaches, Disneyland, malls, Dodger games, and many other activities. When I came here, one big concern was that I would be bored with nothing to do. I learned as soon as I got here that there are many social activities on campus so that I am rarely ever bored. Something that I enjoy about living here is that my friends live in the same building as me, whereas at home, all of my friends are in driving distance. Another student who has moved here from across the country is Lexus Abeita. Lexus is a freshman who moved here from Albuquerque, New Mexico. Before coming here, she was nervous that college
would be very difficult and the stress of trying to balance school and soccer, and the fact that she had to leave her friends and family seemed daunting. One way that Lexus handled these feelings was by bringing her pet rabbit on campus as an emotional support animal. Having an ESA has helped calm her down when she is feeling anxious or stressed. Both of us had a difficult time re-adjusting to our new lifestyles, but we have felt more comfortable living away from home as time has passed. Whether or not you come from far away, every student should know you are not alone and there is someone in a similar situation as you right here on campus.

Football Rallies Past Missouri Valley; 1ST Win Over Vikings Since 2004 The Dante Vandeven (SR/Jackson, Mo.) and Katavious Taylor (SO/Memphis, Tenn.) Show made its triumphant return to Davis Field on Saturday afternoon in front of a national audience on ESPN3, as the QB-WR tandem rallied the Eagles to a 26-21 come-from-behind victory over Missouri Valley. It marked the first time Central Methodist topped the Vikings since 2004. Heading into the fourth quarter, the Eagles trailed 21-14. But Vandeven found Taylor streaking down the right sideline for a 77-yard bomb with 10:11 left to cut the Missouri Valley lead to one. The Central Methodist defense came up with a huge play on the ensuing possession, as Jesse Bird (SO/Gallatin, Mo.) forced a fumble that fell directly into the hands of Trevor Ganaway (FR/Marceline, Mo.). Seven plays and 42 yards later, Vandeven connected with Taylor for the game-winning touchdown.

Missouri Valley's offense led a drive deep into Central Methodist territory with time winding down, but Erik Mays (SO/Marshall, Mo.) caught an interception in the end zone to ice the victory with 1:57 left. "There's going to be adversity in everything," said Head Coach David Calloway. "You just gotta deal with it, don't let it affect you in the next situation and they did a good job of not letting it affect them the rest of the game." Vandeven completed a season-high 25-of-34 passes for 396 yards and three touchdowns. Taylor reached season-highs in both receptions and receiving yards, as he snagged 13 balls for 265 yards and three touchdowns. Damontay Allen (JR/Conway, Ark.) caught five passes for 63 yards, while Garan Evans (SR/Cape Girardeau, Mo.) caught three passes for 39 yards. Kaylon Johnson (JR/Memphis, Tenn.) led the

Dalton King (JR/Fredericktown, Mo.) had 10 tackles, including two tackles for loss. "On the way in, I saw two American bald eagles, so I knew it was going to be a good day," said Calloway. "It feels great to get a win because they're hard to come by. I'm proud of all these guys. They balled, man."

Nyamsi Named NAIA National Defensive Player of the Week Wilfried Nyamsi (SR/Paris, France), who was named Heart Defensive Player of the Week on Monday, was recognized as the NAIA National Men's Soccer Defensive Player of the Week on Tuesday. This marks the first time in the Fall 2018 season that a Central Methodist athlete has earned a national player of the week award. The recognition comes after a week that saw the Central Methodist men's soccer team post two blank sheets against Top-10 ranked opponents. "Will is a tough defender and a special part of this team," said Head Coach Alex Nichols. "We are very happy with this much-deserved award for Will." Nyamsi was a key defensive factor in those road victories, including a spectacular block of a potential game-tying goal against No. 10 Baker. Earlier this season, Nyamsi spoke to CMUEagles.
com about what makes the Central Methodist defense so stingy, citing good chemistry and unselfishness. "Will is the first to tell you that it takes all 11 players to get these awards, and it will take all 11 players on the field to achieve our goal for this year," added Nichols. Central Methodist is now 10-1-2 on the season, including 4-1-1 in Heart play.

Sauter and Van Voorhis See Hope in Current Season By Amanda Steinman, Writer
Lisa Sauter from Schefflez, Germany, and Brooke Van Voorhis from Corinth, Texas, are two of Central Methodist University’s top cross country runners this season. Sauter had an amazing start to her college career last year. Prior to coming to Central her only experience was running 10k road races. “I enjoy running cross country here. Running is always fun”, said Sauter. Last season Sauter placed multiple times in the top 10 and 15. At the Heart of America Conference Championship in Baker, Kansas, she placed 12th with a time of 19:45, her personal record. Her time also qualified her for the 2017 Nationals. At Nationals Sauter competed with the best college cross country runners in the U.S. and placed 223 out of 338 with a time of 20:05. Qualifying for nationals last year wasn’t enough for her. Lisa brought home her first win of her college career at the Eagle Invite, hosted here in Fayette, running a time of 19:59. A week later she brought home a second place finish at the Rocky Raven Invitational, running a time of 20:37.07. “My season is going better than I expected. But it is still early in the season, so I don’t know what is yet to come,” said Sauter.
Van Voorhis has had many years of experience under her belt before she came to Central, which included eight years of cross country and 11 years of track. Last year she dealt with injuries throughout the season but still ran very well. She finished 12th at the Gary Stoner Invite and 66th at the Heart of America Conference Championship in Baker, Kansas. “This year is not going as planned because of my hip injuries but it’s early in the season so I think it will go pretty well,” said
Van Voorhis. She placed 24th at the Rocky Raven Invitational at Benedictine College, running a time of 22:22. During the summer, she ran her fastest 5k in a road race with a time of 19:02, so she is hopeful to get reach that level of performance and break that record during CMU’s cross-country season. Sauter and Van Voorhis are hopeful as they prepare for the conference championship and hopefully nationals as well.

Men’s Soccer Tops Graceland 6-0 The No. 5 Central Methodist University men's soccer team earned a thunderous 6-0 shutout win over Graceland University on Friday evening. Daniel Hernandez (FR/Bogota, Colombia) led the Eagles with six shot attempts, earning two goals and one assist in the contest. Hernandez now has 17 goals on the season, leading the conference by four goals. Connor Blitz (SR/Columbia, Mo.) had the opening goal of the game in under two minutes of play, assisted by Guzman Pery (SO/Madrid, Spain). Hernandez earned the next point, assisted by Adrian Gutierrez (SR/Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain), before returning the favor for a Gutierrez goal in the 26th minute. Santiago Sierra (SR/Bogota, Colombia) was the fourth Eagle to score in the first half off a header from Rodrigo Paredes (SO/Asuncion, Paraguay). Hernandez snuck a second goal past the goalkeeper shortly after the second half began, assisted by Victor Luengo (FR/Alcorcon Madrid, Spain). Alberto Pangrazzi (FR/Lavis (TN), Italy) netted the final goal of the game off of a pass from Fabio Tarnowski (JR/ Avigliana, Italy).
Central Methodist now ranks second in the nation in shutouts after Vince Gelei (JR/Dunakeszi, Hungary) recorded five saves to give the team its 10th blank sheet of the season. The win moves CMU to 13-1-2 overall and 7-1-1 in conference play.

Pery’s OT Winner Gives Men’s Soccer a 3-2 Victory Over GVU Guzman Pery (SO/Madrid, Spain) delivered the golden goal in overtime to give the No. 7 Central Methodist men's soccer program a 3-2 win over the Grand View Vikings. "This was not an easy game. Grand View is a tough team, especially on the road," said Coach Alex Nichols. "It wasn't our best game but we got it done. We'll regroup before Friday and work on getting better in all areas as we prepare for Graceland. The Eagles, now 12-1-2 on the season and 6-1-1 in the Heart, trailed early after a Grand View goal scored in the first ten minutes of play. Junior Ka-
zeem (JR/London, England) netted a shot to tie the contest two minutes later and Adrian Gutierrez (SR/ Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain) scored in the 34th minute to give CMU. Central Methodist outshot the Vikings 23-9 and led the on-goal threat at 12-4. Gutierrez led the offensive attack for the Central Methodist with six shot attempts. Santiago Sierra (SR/Bogota, Colombia), Pery, and Kazeem each attempted three. Vince Gelei (JR/Dunakeszi, Hungary) secured two saves in 91 minutes.
No. 7 Men’s Soccer Rolls Over No. 14 Mid-America Facing its fourth ranked matchup in five games, the No. 7 ranked Central Methodist University men's soccer team dominated throughout, romping to a 4-1 victory over No. 14 ranked MidAmerica Nazarene University. The triumph marks the first time Central Methodist has beaten MidAmerica Nazarene since at least 2007. "Great win for the guys tonight. Everybody worked incredibly hard," said Head Coach Alex Nichols. "We're excited about our guys' performance, and we're excited about what they are capable of." The vaunted Eagles offensive attack got to work early, as Daniel Hernandez (FR/Bogota, Colombia) fed Victor Luengo (FR/Alcorcon Madrid, Spain), who blasted the ball into the bottom left corner for an early 1-0 lead.

Oh Weedada! Canada Legalizes Weed and Changes National Flag
Canada becomes the second country, after Uruguay, to legalize the consumption of cannabis for recreational purposes. They did not change their flag.
A Twitter user found the below list of rules in a car he purchased and shared it on Twitter. The consensus is the list is from a girlfriend to a boyfriend after he cheated on her. The couple is probably young couple and most people asked don’t think they should stay together. No one should stay in a relationship if it takes a list like this to stay together. What do you think?
