Sophomore admits to sexually assaulting student in his dorm By Ben Agosta Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

A Central Michigan University student admitted to sexually assaulting another student in his Saxe Hall dorm room after returning from a party at 1:30 a.m. Jan. 21. Sophomore Logan Lemke, 19, was charged Feb. 1 with one count of second-degree criminal sexual conduct, capturing and distributing images of unclothed adults, surveilling unclothed adults and possessing child sexually abusive material. Lemke’s probable cause hearing is scheduled for 8:15 a.m. Feb. 9. Bond was set at 10 percent of $20,000. Lemke admitted to CMU police that he touched a sleeping person’s genitals and took pictures using his cell phone, according to the court report.

The interviewing officer seized Lemke’s iPhone at the end of the interview. During the interview with police, the student who was assaulted said between midnight and 2 a.m. he recalled flashes of someone touching him. When he woke he said his underwear was between the mattress and the footboard of his bed. In addition to the criminal sexual conduct, CMUPD identified more than 1,200 images of males changing clothes and more than 600 images showing males sleeping, some pornographic in nature, in Lemke’s possession. Many of these images date to 2012 and 2013 and include male subjects under the age of 18 at the time. CMUPD obtained warrants to search Lemke’s primary cell phone and dorm room for surveillance equipment. The males in the photos are not

connected to the Jan. 21 incident and have yet to be identified. An additional investigation to identify the subjects of the photos will be conducted. Lt. Cameron Wassman of the CMUPD said law enforcement is only receiving information from the victim of the criminal sexual conduct. “At this point, we only have (identified) one victim of the criminal sexual conduct, so we’ll have to see if additional information comes in or not,” he said. “So if you read (the court documents), the thousands of images we found, we don’t know who these people are.” CMUPD is working with law enforcement in Ubly, Lemke’s hometown, to identify the subjects, Wassman said. “Will we ever find out who all these people are? Maybe yes, maybe no, nobody knows for sure,” he said.

SGA passes resolution to extend hours in library study room By Haley Les Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

A resolution supporting longer operation hours in the Extended Hours Study room in the Charles V. Park Library was passed by the Student Government Association at its meeting Feb. 6. SGA Vice President Anna Owens said this resolution will benefit students who have unconventional schedules. “It’s an amazing piece (of legislation) — the Academic Affairs committee worked really hard on this,” Owens said. The Extended Hours Study operates from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. The resolution proposes to extend the hours to 6 a.m. to 3 a.m. Owens said this resolution is for students who don’t have computers, who have to travel to work at night or for those who need to print early in the morning for an 8 a.m. class. “Students try to go to the library to get

their homework done and have to make sure they can get access to a computer,” Owens said. “A lot of times, at 10 p.m., all the computers are actually full.” Part of the resolution is a request for a trial period so the times may possibly be extended further in the future. It was then passed by the House. “The first floor of the library will be closed except for the (Extended Hours Study),” Owens said. “That way the custodial staff can still get through and people in the library are not getting in their way.” After SGA broke for House and Senate meetings, Elections Director Olivia Cyman said at the House meeting the electoral process is approaching for those who are interested. House Leader Cody Van Buren said one of the positions still available is the parliamentarian position, which is a paid position on campus through SGA. SGA President Jazmin Biernat said deadlines for positions will be announced on SGA’s Facebook page later this week.

David Garcia Project educates students about disabilities By Brianne Twiddy News Editor news@cm-life.com

Every few weeks, students spend an evening trying to button up a shirt while wearing thick gloves with popsicle sticks of different sizes attached at the fingers. This is how the David Garcia Project teaches students what it’s like to live with arthritis, a painful inflammatory issue causing stiffness of the joints. Hosted by the Mary Ellen Brandell Volunteer Center, the David Garcia Project is a disabilities awareness program that holds sessions featuring activities simulating different physical, visual, auditory, learning or psychological disabilities. “The experiential learning is supposed to create understanding,” said Robert Zinger, a campus

programs graduate assistant. “We don’t talk about how bad we feel. I think you get a sense of respect for people with disabilities because you realize how many hurdles they overcome in a day.” While each session usually only includes four activities, the project has more than 10 activities simulating disabilities. Visual disorder simulations include walking while wearing goggles covered in stripes of black tape. Another includes blindfolding participants and asking them to put themselves in order without talking. Auditory disorder simulations include giving participants ear plugs and asking them to play “Simon Says” and asking participants to talk with one another. Learning tests include tracing a star while looking in a mirror and reading an article written backwards.

“We try to push them like a professor would by saying things like ‘come on guys, you know this’ to make it as realistic as possible,” said Naomi Evans, a Schoolcraft junior and the project’s student coordinator. Simulation activities have grown with the program, Evans said. Simulations for schizophrenia, a psychological disorder, was added last year. For the simulation, participants listen to overlapping voices saying mostly negative things. “This was very eye-opening for me,” said Dakota Yeaster, a Jerome sophomore who attended the Feb. 1 open session. “My father suffers from three of the four disabilities that we covered today. I usually make fun of him for it and call him old and don’t have any patience for it. I feel bad now. I feel like I learned a lot

about these disabilities tonight.” Open sessions are for any student interested in participating. These sessions typically bring in more than 15 people and include four activities, Evans said. Volunteer hours can be gained by attending the events. Private sessions are closed to the public and are for specific organizations that reach out to the project. Evans said they receive two or three requests each month. Attending the sessions as an organization is both a bonding and educational experience, she said. “We have some (organizations) who continue to reach out, so it becomes almost like a tradition,” Zinger said. “(Interest in the program) seems to be growing.” The program isn’t meant to incite pity — instead they focus on promoting empathy toward those with a disability.

Ash Seymour | Staff Photographer Participants attempt to read various signs and walk while wearing goggles during a David Garcia Project session on Feb. 1 in the Bovee University Center.

“We like to say our mantra is to teach empathy instead of sympathy,” Evans said. “What we do is put you in the position of someone with a disability so you can see what they might experience. We try to take what happens in your

Amid ridiculing threats, millennials are finding a political voice

n May 4, 1970, members of the Ohio National Guard killed four and injured nine other unarmed Kent State University students on campus protesting America’s involvement in Cambodia. It’s a day that lives in infamy. It remains one of the most outrageous attacks on the First Amendment by government officials in our nation’s modern history. It is an event that has served as a cautionary tale against government intervention during times of political protest. Last week, the University of California-Berkley was forced to cancel an appearance by conservative columnist and Breitbart News editor, Milo Yiannopoulous. A massive protest, which included students and others, was organized in response to the scheduled visit of the self-proclaimed social media troll, who was banned by Twitter for attacking “Saturday Night Live” actress Leslie Jones. Following the UC-Berkley protest, Dan Adamini, secretary of the Marquette County Republican Party, posted on Twitter that it’s “time for another Kent State perhaps.” This threat of democide, or the murder of citizens by their government, is repulsive. But

EDITORIAL Adamini’s words reflect a sentiment held by many Republicans — especially Baby Boomers. “Stop whining, we won, you lost.” “Get over it, snowflake.” “Go back to your safe space.” These are common messages directed to millennials by middleaged men and women who have taken up a hobby of trolling on social media. Their message is clear: Shut up and wait your turn. We are still in control. If standing up to discriminatory immigration bans, opposing billion-dollar walls and billionaire cabinet leaders, encouraging senators to speak out during confirmation hearings and battling bigots and fear-mongering rhetoric makes us snowflakes — get ready to be hit by a blizzard. Remember learning about the Boston Tea Party or Shay’s Rebellion? Protest and using our First Amendment right to free speech has always been the foundation of America’s democracy. The tradition is something conservative Baby Boomers only support when it’s convenient for them, or reflects

their polarized set of ideals. Following the Kent State shooting, Central Michigan University students occupied the former R.O.T.C building, Central Hall, for five days of protest beginning May 4, 1970. They occupied Warriner Mall for 11 days. Fearing another Kent State, former CMU President William Boyd held off state and city government officials from removing the students by force. He allowed them to protest, vent and peacefully came to an agreement to end the sit-in. Our former university president recognized the power of students expressing their right to protest. Government leaders and Boomers today need to do the same. Nearly 50 years after the most

heated social and political activism in our nation’s history, we find ourselves in a similar place of contention. Just as the generations before us, the political voices of Millennials are growing louder. The power of America’s largest living generation is just beginning to be seen in the streets of Ferguson, Baltimore, Berkley, Washington D.C., Standing Rock, on the ballot and in the voting booth. Soon, the Millenial generation will control conversations that will dominate the national rhetoric. This is frightening for conservative Baby Boomers. The shift away from them is terrifying.

Professor’s study shows university must promote inclusion By Sarah Wolpoff News Editor news@cm-life.com

University officials say they are making some progress in addressing the concerns of minority students who said they face racial discrimination at Central Michigan University. Still, the author of the study that encouraged administrative action isn’t convinced enough is being done. Mary Senter, a professor of sociology at CMU, published her study in 2015. Three student climate surveys and in-depth interviews administered over a seven-year period suggested there has been little consistent improvement toward making CMU a more welcoming and diverse campus for minority students. In some cases, her study

suggests the situation has gotten worse. Senter said to address these issues, the university needs to promote a wider range of diversity in faculty and students and educate faculty on building an inclusive classroom. Non-white students expressed continued isolation and discomfort on campus. While CMU has implemented programs to promote diversity in the wake of the surveys, officially addressing discrimination and inclusion is trickier, said Carolyn Dunn, associate vice president of the Office of Institutional Diversity & Inclusion. “The racial problems of the past continue to be with us, and if one is serious about reducing them, then one needs to be serious about acting in ways that are new, different and sustained,” Senter said. The most upsetting findings,

she said, were revealed during in-depth interviews when students talked about distress inside the classroom. Participants shared uncomfortable situations concerning faculty, such as being asked to represent an entire demographic when topics of discrimination were discussed in class. Many said they are treated differently based on race and have difficulty building meaningful relationships with faculty. The Office of Institutional Diversity & Inclusion has been developing several programs and strategies to promote a more racially diverse student body on campus since 2014, when Dunn was appointed to her position. “Institutional Talent Search Program,” a program established this year, is an early academic outreach program in southwest Detroit that helps bring students

of different backgrounds to CMU. Dunn said they are also working on ways to incentivize diversity education, including the development of a diversity training institute for certification. Last year, a similar certification program was developed with the College of Medicine, where health professionals can take continuing education diversity courses. However, Senter maintains that addressing discrimination in the classroom by means of faculty adjustments should be of

highest priority. Dunn developed a training and cultural competency seminar for faculty and staff last year. The university cannot require faculty to attend training because of their contracts. However, Dunn said the seminars are always full and usually have a wait list. University offices also provide the colleges with resources on diversity hiring. Faculty recruitment, nonetheless, is still determined by the respective college, she said.

While some colleges have done well in increasing a diverse pool of applicants, Dunn said recruiting and retaining diverse faculty across the university continues as a problem. Dunn said she understands the frustration felt by Senter and much of the student body but is optimistic about potential advancements with inclusion and diversity, despite difficult times ahead. “I am newer, so I’ve been able to bring a fresh perspective to campus and have been able to do quite a bit with not a lot,” she said. “We’re facing a budget crisis coming up next year, and we’re going to have to tighten up in a lot of ways. We have to do a lot more with a lot less, and it is frustrating that we can’t do a lot more with a lot more — but we have to reallocate resources”

Faculty concerned about budget cuts, Trump executive order By Emma Dale Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Senators in the Academic Senate expressed deep concern about pending budget cuts expected in each department to manage the $10.6 million deficit facing Central Michigan University. Faculty members united at the Academic Senate meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 7, on issues affecting academia on a local and national scale. In addition to voicing budget deficit distress, the senate also agreed that as academic representatives, they are socially responsible to address federal policies affecting students, science and higher education. After the Budget Priorities Committee presented deficit updates, Sen. Tracy Collins asked several questions regard-

ing faculty concerns. Collins felt her questions were left unanswered by the administration. “(The budget cuts) are especially important to those in the English department because we have been fiscally responsible and not increased our budget (more than) 10 percent (during the past) 10 years,” Collins said. “But yet not only our department, but our college is continually asked by the university to cut and cut, to fund programs that don’t service all students.” Collins said she understands every college and department is being affected by the deficit and needs to make sacrifices. However, she said some departments are expected to cut more than others. “There’s less money coming in so everyone kind of has to tighten their belts, and we get that,” Collins said. “Unfortunately, (with) what the administration is asking, some

people (must) tighten their belts more than others.” At the meeting, Provost Michael Gealt read two statements he felt the Senate needed to hear regarding federal policy and academia. He read an editorial from Science Magazine, which discussed how the transition in presidency has raised concerns for the scientific community. The article states certain White House administration priorities will control how science is directed, funded and used. “I am sure that every learning society is expressing much the same thing,” Gealt said. “We at the university have spent our lives developing data that should be used to inform decisions and it is very difficult to watch, as people are using ‘alternative facts.’” The second statement concerned the executive order banning international travel issued

PUBLIC HEARING FOR KAYA COFFEE BUILDING REZONING SCHEDULED FOR FEB. 13 The Mount Pleasant City Commission will hold a public hearing at 7 p.m. on Feb. 13 to discuss the potential rezoning of the building currently housing Kaya Coffee House. If the rezoning is approved, the sale to United Apartments will move forward. The Mount Pleasant Planning Commission decided to approve the zoning request at their Jan. 5 meeting. Regardless, the city commission will make the final decision in regard to the property. Kaya owners Emily Miller and Abigail

Chambers are committed to keeping the coffee shop open and want to remain in the same location. They held a meeting Feb. 8 to encourage people to show up to the public hearing and voice their concerns to the city commission. “We hope people show up (to the meeting) to show the community wants Kaya. We don’t want to disappear. We don’t want to move. That’s where we’re standing,” Chambers said. - Greg Horner, News Editor

Mount Pleasant plans to adopt a new zoning ordinance for the first time since 1971. The new character-based ordinance will attempt to boost urban development and is more “user-friendly,” said Mount Pleasant City Planner Jacob Kain. A character-based ordinance zones properties on a case by case basis. “This new ordinance will allow us to accomplish the development that we want in the city,” Kain said. “The paradigm for growth and development is totally different today from when we adopted our current ordinance.” The city’s ordinance has been amended several times and Kain described it as “confusing” and “difficult to work with.”. He used the example of fixing a damaged car as opposed to purchasing a new one. “At a certain point the car has too many problems,” he said. “We did some of the maintenance, maybe not all that we could have done -- but it is time for a new car.” The new ordinance will feature graphs and charts to make it easier to read. The city contracted Town Planning and Urban Design Collaborative to draft the ordinance. The rezoning project has a budget of $100,000. City officials first considered a new

ordinance two years ago, said Kain. In November, the city took suggestions from residents about what type of development they would like to see in the future. “A lot of the development that we want to get, our current ordinance doesn’t allow,” Kain said. “We think this new ordinance will allow us to move toward an urban focus in the future -- that’s what our residents want.” The current ordinance doesn’t work well with small properties and was designed for a suburban area, Kain said. The new planning strategy will allow for more flexibility in development, such as creating mixed-use commercial and residential zones. The city hasn’t seen the plan, but Kain hopes the city commission will adopt the ordinance by the end of 2017. Residents will have the ability to amend and approve the ordinance in a public hearing when the draft is finished. When the new ordinance is adopted, every area in the city will be rezoned. “We generally know what kind of code we’re going to get,” Kain said. “If someone asked me specifics about a property, I have a rough idea about what changes will come, but I couldn’t give you an exact answer.” - Greg Horner, News Editor

Water conservation group fights Nestlé, state over sale of natural resources By Zahra Ahmad Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Michigan’s Department of Environmental Quality issued Nestlé Water North America its first permit to extract state water for profit in 2000. Since then, the company has extracted millions of gallons of water it bottles and sells back to Michigan residents for as much as $1.80 a bottle. The state charges Nestlé virtually nothing for the water it uses. The registered student organization Take Back The Tap will protest Nestlé products to show support to the water conservation group, Michigan Citizens for Water Conservation. “Nestlé, which operates wells in Mecosta and Osceola Counties, has taken billions of gallons of water from Michigan for little to no cost,” said Allison LaPlatt, president of Take Back The Tap. Section 17 of the Michigan Safe Drinking Water Act allows industries to install pumps in municipal water systems as long as they use water to make a product. Most companies use water as part of a process to produce goods, such as baby food or cleaning equipment or to hydrate crops and grass. In Nestlé’s case, the billions of gallons of groundwater it pumps from local aquifers is its product. Jeff Ostahowski, vice president of Michigan Citizens for Water

Conservation, said the DEQ reported that between 2005 and 2015, Nestlé has taken 3.4 billion gallons of water from its well location in Evart—located about 45 miles from Central Michigan University’s campus. “There is something wrong with our state’s water policies,” Ostahoswski said. “You have thousands of families in Flint without water because their water infrastructure is outdated and mistreated. (Nestlé has) made billions in profit from the state’s most precious natural resource and for nearly nothing.” Nestlé Waters North America is the largest water bottle company in the continent. “Water is the only natural resource companies don’t have to compensate to the state,” LaPlatt said. “When the state invests in companies which uses billions of gallons of water, they’re inherently choosing the companies priority, profit, over the water infrastructure millions of people depend on for safe drinking water. “ Michigan’s water costs nothing to its citizens. Transmitting treated water through municipal pipes is what residents receive in the form of a monthly water bill. If you have a well on your property, you only pay to maintain the pump or replace pipes. In exchange for the hundreds of gallons of water it extracts each day, Nestlé pays the state an

annual $200 registration fee that notifies that state that it is using the water for business. “They pay 95 cents for one million gallons,” Ostahowski said. According to a study done by Beverage Marketing Corporation, water bottle sales have increase by 6.2 percent since 2003 and more than 10 billion gallons of water were bottled for profit in 2014. Michigan Citizens for Water Conservation is requesting the DEQ refrain from allowing private water bottling companies from increasing their water intake until the impacts of lowering the water table are fully assessed. “Nestlé increased their water intake from 150 to 250 gallons per minute in 2015 without proper public notification, without public comment and without public hearing,” Ostahowski said. “Now they want to increase that pumping to 400 gallons per minute, and it almost went without public notice again.” Last fall the DEQ and Nestlé released news of the company’s $36 million expansion of its Ice Mountain bottling plant in a littleread state publication. Nestlé proposed increasing its production by extracting 400 gallons per minute from its Evart well. It currently pumps 150 gallons per minute from that location. The public comment period was extended until March 3. Read full story online at cm-life.com. What is an aquifer? An aquifer is essentially a large pool of water anywhere from 25 to 35 feet beneath the surface of the ground. Glacial till causes the pumping of water. The well is pulling from an aquifer that when it meets the surface of ground, becomes a wetland or stream. This is because the aquifer and the streams belong to the same water table.

Registered student organization works with administrators to stop sale of water bottles By Zahra Ahmad Staff Reporter

news@cm-life.com

fter a decade of disagreement, students and administrators at Central Michigan University are working together to end bottled water sales on campus. Central Michigan University officials, with support of Take Back the Tap, will install 10 new water bottle refill stations on campus each year until they are available in every building. The Market will not sell single-use water bottles beginning March 13, for the spring semester and will instead sell Hydro Flask reusable water bottles. The RSO wants the university to phase out

It’s a basic human right,” said Allison LaPlatt, president of the student organization. It took years for administrators to embrace the student group’s suggestions. LaPlatt and her organization are hoping their success in working with like-minded administrators causes a ripple effect for other RSOs on campus. the sale of single-use water bottles on campus by educating students and administrators about the negative economic, environmental and health effects of bottled water. “The university should not be invested in the idea that water is (a) commodity, because it’s not.

A DROP IN THE POND Inside a candle-lit church prayer room, five college students patiently held small paper cups. After reciting an Anishinaabe prayer over a steel kettle, a woman with long grey braids poured cold

water into the vessels. By sipping the water, Kyle Platt, a Grand Ledge senior, and other members of the Student Environmental Alliance, showed the woman support in protecting the indigenous communities’ freshwater systems. The ceremony was held by the Michigan Citizens for Water Conservation, an activist group based 45 miles from Mount Pleasant. They focus on preventing Nestlé from taking advantage of the state’s water policies. Giving voice to environmental issues may not be a popular hobby for many students, Platt said, but this year, members of Student Environmen-

tal Alliance saw the impact of their Take Back the Tap chapter. The group experienced small successes though one administrator seemed to always challenge their mission. Take Back The Tap reached out to the department of purchasing and contracts at the university, but after years of working with one administrator and without progression toward their goal, they realized they were hitting a wall. Members of the organization decided to build a list of administrators they could work with. The first step to doing this was acknowledging issues on campus which defer from stopping the purchase of single-use water bottles. Almost 500,000 20-ounce beverages were sold in campus stores managed by Aramark from August 2014 to May 2015. Bottled water sales comprised approximately 10 percent of total sales. Students were able to read over contracts with Pepsi dating back to 1997. CMU purchases seven different sized Aquafina brands ranging from $9.62 to $17 per 24-pack through the company. The contract is renewed every five years, and is up for renewal this year. Their first position was to make sure every floor on campus has a water bottle refill station. Next, they knew they needed the financial support from CMU to meet that goal. The RSO reached out to Vice President of Finance and Administrative Services Barrie Wilkes to make their case to increase the number of water bottle refill stations in on-campus buildings. Wilkes seemed interested in that idea. “To me it makes sense,” Wilkes said. “I see more and more students with reusable bottles. I asked them to come back with a list of buildings which need the stations the most.” The organization went back with a list of prospective locations based on the amount of foot traffic each building receives. They suggested the university develop a plan to install refill stations at those locations. “We agreed to do that,” Wilkes said. CMU will provide enough funding to install 10 refill stations each year until every floor of every building on campus has one.

Each refill station costs about $1,500 to install. To raise awareness for their project, LaPlatt and Take Back The Tap members presented the plan to Aramark Resident District Manager Tyson Dubay. Aramark is contracted by the university to provide dining services. Dubay has worked with Take Back The Tap campaigns in the past. He agreed to allow the RSO to post stickers on the refill stations with information about the effects of single-use water bottles. “We want people to know about the economic, environmental and health effects single-use water bottles impose on society,” LaPlatt said. “No one accounts for how many water bottles they’ve used and where they’ve ended up. Nearly 50 billion plastic water bottles end up in U.S. landfills each year.” Dubay also agreed to stop the sale of single-use water bottles in The Market on campus. Instead, The Market will sell Hydro Flasks, a type of reusable water bottle, and students can use FLEX dollars to purchase them. More than 70 colleges and universities have passed full or partial bans on bottled water sales, including Kalamazoo College. More than a hundred more universities, like CMU, have taken steps to improving access to public tap water by installing filling stations on their campuses and advocating for the use of reusable water bottles. Although the university has not fully divested from purchasing single-use bottled water, Wilkes said the initiative and drive Take Back The Tap has is not going unnoticed. “The student’s I’ve met with in

water withdrawl in Michigan was 98 billion gallons Take Back The Tap over the past few years are a very impressive group of people,” Wilkes said. “They’re doing a really good job of addressing this issue.” LaPlatt said after meeting with university administrators, the RSO has received a unanimous answer — there needs to a unified student voice asking the university to end bottled water sales. “The university needs to see us, the students, stop purchasing these single-use water bottles,” LaPlatt said. “As nice as it is to hear students say they support our cause, the university needs more. Students have to stop purchasing the product. The demand (must) no longer exist.” If students continue to buy bottled water, the university will continue to provide it. “What I’d like to see is everyone stops purchasing bottled water and get a refillable bottle instead,” Wilkes said. “There are so many ways to get away from buying these single-use bottles.” Wilkes said if the market decides to permanently stop the sale of single-use water bottles he would like to believe the university will consider doing the same.

Junior guard relies heavily on 3-point shot for success By Dylan Goetz Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Josh Kozinski knew a college would want him if he could shoot. Now in his fourth year with the Central Michigan men’s basketball team, shooting is all Kozinski knows. The redshirt junior has taken 662 shots for the Chippewas — 638 from the 3-point line in his career. “I didn’t know about the volume of threes I would be shooting but I did know that I would be a shooter here,” Kozinski said. “I noticed that there would be a lot of opportunities to shoot threes. With great point guards like Braylon (Rayson), (Marcus) Keene and Chris Fowler, they are able to get to the rim and draw so much attention.” While most of the spotlight belongs to the team’s top-two scorers in Keene and Rayson, Kozinski has been quietly prolific from the 3-point line. Through 24 games this season, Kozinski has taken 174 total shots, with 164 of them coming from the 3-point line. Of the shots he’s made, 57 of the 61 are 3-pointers. With one year left, Kozinski is on pace to surpass Rayson for most 3-point attempts in CMU history.

His ability to knock down shots has helped lead the Chippewas to a 16-8 overall record, and 6-5 in the Mid-American Conference. It’s no secret CMU relies heavily on the 3-pointer as 51 percent of the team’s attempts have come from the 3-point line. “We bleed shooting threes. We love it,” Kozinski said. “We know that everybody on the team is capable of making threes, so making a couple here and there

really gets the team going.” The Edwardsburg native joined the Chippewas in 2013 during head coach Keno Davis’ second year. According to ESPN, Kozinski was a two-star high school basketball recruit and had offers from CMU, Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Toledo and Houston Baptist. “Although we might not have found the biggest or most athletic guys, we could find guys that could really shoot and wanted to develop,” Davis said. “Josh Kozinski fits into that mold.” Davis said Kozinski was one of the best shooters they could find coming out of high school. “He’s got an incredibly fast release,” Davis praised. “Not only does he affect the game when he is able to knock down shots, but he also stretches the defense for guys to attack inside.” Davis said Kozinski is one of the most valuable players on the team because of his shooting ability. “He gets publicity in the games when he knocks down a lot of threes, but he’s sometimes the silent reason why we are able to have a Marcus Keene or a Braylon Rayson,” Davis said. “We don’t win the (MAC) championship without him.” No matter where he is on the court, Kozinski said he’s always read to shoot.

“These guys will yell at you if you aren’t ready to shoot,” Kozinski of Keene and Rayson. “If I turn down a three, they will get mad at me for not shooting. It’s great to have teammates that hold you accountable for shooting the ball. There’s nothing like having a teammate getting mad at you for not shooting.” Kozinski’s always-ready mentality keeps defenses from focusing solely on Keene and Rayson, who score more than 57 percent of CMU’s points. “He’s come up big at the end of games,” Davis said. “(Kozinski) is also that guy who can make you pay if you fall asleep on him. It allows you to be playing fouron-four on the defensive end.” Though he’s still working on his game, Davis said Kozinski knows his strengths. Keene, who leads the NCAA in scoring while shooting just under 10 3-point-attempts, said the 3-pointer means a lot to CMU. “It’s hard to defend and three is more than two,” Keene said. “We have a lot of good shooters on the floor at all times. (Davis) recruits shooters and that’s what (Davis) wants us to do.” CMU ranks 4th in points per game in Division I behind The Citadel, UCLA and Kentucky, according to ESPN. The Chippewas also rank No. 3 in 3-pointers attempted in the NCAA with 796 this season.

Softball opens season against Ohio State Friday By Anthony Cook Staff Reporter

seed before losing to both Kent State and Western Michigan.

sports@cm-life.com

As the first weekend of college softball season approaches, preseason Mid-American Conference polls predict Central Michigan will finish second in the West division. For head coach Margo Jonker, the ranking came as no surprise. “I think that’s pretty legitimate right now,” Jonker said. “Our goal is to try to knock everybody off and win the conference, obviously, every year. We’ll wait and see what happens but it’s one game at a time.” In the 2016 season, the Chippewas finished with a 24-27-1 record overall and 11-11 in the MAC, which was good enough for a spot in the MAC softball tournament as the No. 8

RETURNING TALENT Jonker expressed excitement in her returning athletes, including her returning pitchers and catchers from the previous season. Those pitchers are senior Rachael Knapp, junior Hanna Warren and sophomore Laura Vaccaro. Senior Danielle Marlink and junior Maison Kalina are back for the season as catchers. There will also be familiar faces in CMU’s outfield this season, as no starters were lost from 2016. Back for the Chippewas are juniors Lacey Tolfree and Sara Hansen along with sophomore Allison Curtis. “Our (pitchers and catchers) are back,” Jonker said. “Our outfield is solidly returning a very experienced and

outstanding defensive outfield.” In the infield, however, the future is slightly more questionable. Having graduated five seniors who played infield positions, Jonker said her team’s depth will be able to combat this transition. “I’m excited to see what they

can do,” Jonker said. “There’s a lot of flexibility within the infield. A number of people can play different positions, so it should be a fun year.”

COACHING ADDITION Brittney Horan is the most recent addition to the coach-

ing staff. She graduated from CMU in 2014 and served as a volunteer assistant for the softball team the past two seasons. Horan will serve as a full-time assistant for the upcoming season, an addition Jonker has high hopes for. “Brittney is obviously very loyal to the program,” Jonker said. “It hasn’t been that long ago since she played at Central, so she gets it from that angle. She can see it from a player’s perspective and just knows the game really well.”

CHALLENGING OPENING WEEKEND The Chippewas start the season on the road in College Station, Texas, where they will face two Power-Five conference teams over the course of the three-day trip.

Action starts Friday at 12:15 p.m. against Big 10 opponent Ohio State and Lamar University out of the Southland Conference. Ohio State is currently ranked 33rd in the USA Softball preseason poll. On Saturday, the Chippewas will play Lamar for a second time at 10 a.m. rounding out the day against Big 12 power No. 18 ranked Texas A&M immediately after the conclusion of the Lamar game. Sunday will feature one game for CMU as the Chippewas will play Ohio State a final time before returning home. “We have a challenging weekend up ahead, which we’re very capable of,” Jonker said. “If I didn’t think we were capable, we wouldn’t be in it. It’s just a matter of who’s going to come to play.”

Freshman leads women’s track in first place finishes By Jake Clark Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Three first place finishes in the 60-meter dash, two first place finishes in the long jump and a first-place finish in the 200 meters. Despite being a freshman, Nadia Williams’ six total wins this season ranks No. 1 on the Central Michigan women’s track team. “I don’t think surprised is the right word,” Williams said. “But I think I’ve really exceeded all expectations for myself.” Last year, Williams was a high school senior in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin, where she was a three-time state champion in the long jump and a two-time state champion in the 200. The versatile athlete has been able to carry her success from Wisconsin to Mount Pleasant and plans to continue to improve. Williams said she expects a lot from herself for the rest of the indoor season. She hopes to set personal records at the Indoor MAC Championships on Feb. 25. “Maybe I’ll even make it to the NCAA Championships,” she said. “I just need to keep working.”

After the indoor season ends at the MAC Championships, she will continue her freshman campaign during the outdoor season. She said she hopes to compete in the same events, as well as the 4x100 relay with fellow freshman Ja’la Taylor and sophomores Samantha Cuneo and Gabriella Beauvais. Although she’s had the most success in the 60, Williams said her best event is the long jump. Her farthest jump came at home at the Jack Skoog Triangular on Jan. 13, when she leaped for a first place-worthy 5.86 meters. “I’ve been doing long jump since freshman year (of high school),” Williams said. “I was more surprised with my success in the 200.” In fact, the 200 has arguably been her best event statistically. Her first time competing in the event was at the Doug Hansen Open on Jan. 20, running a 24.69 for a first-place finish. Her only other time competing in the 200 was at the highly competitive Eastern Michigan Triangular on Jan. 28, when her 25.01-second dash pitted her at third place overall. At the EMU event, her 7.61 second-place finish in the 60 made her one of only two CMU athletes to win first place at the meet. That was

also her fastest run of the season, with her second best (7.65) coming in the final round of the first meet in December. “She’s an incredibly talented athlete,” said head coach Mark Guthrie. “She’s hopefully got three more years on this team, which is really nice for us.” However, Williams described her latest meet as a bit of a disappointment. The Notre Dame Meyo Invitational the weekend of Feb. 3 was described by Guthrie as when the team would find out their identity for the season, and whether they were the real deal or “pretenders.” Nadia’s 5.75-meter long jump was her second shortest of the season, giving her a ninth-place finish. Her worst came in the season’s opening meet with a 5.70. Her 7.67-second finish in the 60 was one of her lowest of the season, giving her a 25th place finish. “I’m not happy with the performance,” Williams said. “But it’s a learning experience. That’s all you can take from bad meets.” Guthrie said he isn’t worried by her performance at Notre Dame. “She’s been great all year,” he said. “She’s tough. I know she’ll bounce back.”
