Healthy Aging Initiative provides free healthcare to geriatric patients

By Bridget Bittman Staff Reporter news@cm-life.com

Healthcare for the geriatric patients who live in rural regions isn’t always affordable or available. That’s why a Central Michigan University professor and team of medical students created a project to provide free care to this population.

“Being in a rural area, you don’t have as much access to healthcare,” said Jonathon Skurya, a medical student from Macomb. “For my grandma, it would take over a year to get a new appointment with a doctor.”

Pathology professor Jyotsna Pandy and five second-year medical students created the Healthy Aging Initiative, a program where Central Michigan University medical students to provide free health screenings for geriatric patients in Clare, Gratiot and Isabella county.

The project started in January 2018. It is led by Pandy, who received a $422,000 grant to fund the project. Since January, she and the medical students have met weekly to

LIFE IN BRIEF

plan the project.

The group’s goal is to promote “healthy aging” in the geriatric community and create a replicable program for other medical schools around the country, said California medical student Kultaj Kaleka.

Maintaining one’s health for as long as possible is the goal of healthy aging.

“Healthy aging is making sure we have the proper resources and awareness to stay healthy as we get older,” said Trenton medical student SeanMatthew Calo.

Derek Wolfe, West Bloomfield medical student, said healthy aging is about keeping older people independent.

“You want to age with dignity, and part of that is being able to stay where you live for as long as possible,” Wolfe said.

Many risks are present when senior citizens live at home. These include risk for falling, social isolation, depression and substance abuse, Kaleka said.

“There’s a lot of things that we can do if we’re aware of (these risks) that can either slow the progression of some of these age-related issues or

just help them and make sure that they don’t get worse,” Calo said.

The project is going to serve 104 patients 60 years and older. The home visits are scheduled to start mid-September.

On these visits, the students will assess for substance abuse, social isolation, blood pressure, medication conflicts, oral hygiene and fall risk,

NEWS AND NOTES FROM AROUND CAMPUS

TARANA BURKE, FOUNDER OF THE #METOO MOVEMENT WILL SPEAK IN PLACHTA AUDITORIUM Tarana Burke, founder of the #MeToo movement, will be on campus Wednesday, Sept. 12 in Plachta Auditorium to speak about sexual violence.

Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. and Burke is set to take the stage at 7 p.m. The event is part of the Central Michigan University Speaker Series.

Members of SAPA (Sexual Aggression Peer Advocates) will be present during the event to provide support to individuals who might need further resources.

Burke created the #MeToo movement in 2006 with a mission to help survivors of sexual violence and sexual harrassment, specifically women of color in lowincome areas.

The well-known hashtag

Kaleka said.

To help prevent these issues, every second-year medical student along with nursing, social work, pharmacy and physical therapy students will be visiting the home of a geriatric patient in the program.

The students said their major concern for the patients is balance.

Students will use a balance as-

sessment to evaluate a patient’s risk for fall. The test requires patients to stand up and sit back down at least 12 times in 30 seconds. Another balance test has patients walk in a straight line while students evaluate their posture.

If a patient is at risk for falls, a physical therapy student will provide exercises for the patient.

“One big thing that can help with fall risk is implementing exercise programs to really help strengthen muscle and bone density,” Skurya said.

Teams will bring a food basket with them on each visit, in case patients cannot afford food. Social work students will connect patients with resources that can supply food, Wolfe said.

One of the benefits of this project is students will gain professional practice with the geriatric population.

“This is a really important project because the need for people who take care of the older adult population is frankly dire,” Wolfe said. If even one student goes through the program and decides to work with the geriatric population, that’s a gain, he said.

exploded as a result of her work, and in six months, millions shared their stories regarding sexual violence.

Although the hashtag gained momentum fairly recently, Burke has dedicated more than 25 years of her life to social justice.

Burke hopes by creating a conversation about sexual violence, advocates will emerge in communities and interrupt the cycles of abuse.

The committee that organizes the speaker series consists of faculty members and students. Its goal is to bring in relevant speakers to discuss timely topics that open a larger conversation in the community, said Misheaila Neil, director of University Events.

The team worked for

more than a year to bring Burke to campus.

Plachta Auditorium was chosen specifically by the committee because of the open atmosphere and soft lighting, Neil said. She said the venue will create a comfortable environment for discussing the sensitive topic.

“The person facilitating (the event) has gone through that experience, and is crafting her words in a way that is welcoming and creating a safe space,” Neil said.

She said funds are allocated by both the president’s office and provost’s office with the intention to bring in speakers that will benefit everyone on campus.

GET TO KNOW YOUR CITY

Mount Pleasant has a lot to offer, take advantage of the small-town charm

M

ount Pleasant is a great place to be a college student. It’s a safe, ideal place for young people to attend school as they are learning how to live on their own.

After a sleepy summer, Mount Pleasant comes back to life in the fall. Every August, when students get ready for fall semester classes at Central Michigan University, Mount Pleasant’s population doubles. Roughly 20,000 CMU students move in, flooding campus and the areas surrounding it. Mission Street and the busy streets close to campus become congested and slow with traffic.

Students shop at local stores, eat at restaurants and find other things to do throughout town. Mount Pleasant benefits from CMU students just as much as students benefit from its unique businesses and restaurants.

So we encourage students to get out and explore Mount Pleasant, particularly the downtown.

A lot of students tend to stick pretty

close to campus, especially those who don’t have their own transportation, like most freshmen. If they wandered a little further, they would discover some hidden gems.

Mount Pleasant is so much more than Mission Street and Soaring Eagle Casino.

The next time you’re hungry, maybe grab a bite downtown from Stan’s or Max and Emily’s instead of Taco Bell or McDonald’s. Lots of people think there isn’t anywhere to eat in town that isn’t a fast food place or a chain restaurant, but that isn’t true at all. There’s unique places you probably haven’t tried yet. Seek them out.

One of them could end up being your new favorite restaurant.

The next night you go out with your friends,

EDITORIAL

try checking out some live music at Rubbles or shoot some pool at The Bird.

Did you know Mount Pleasant has 11 parks, which span over 300 acres of the city’s land?

They’re all relaxing and tranquil places to hang out with your friends and escape from studying and homework for a while all beautiful, and they all have something different to offer.

Located at the north end of town, Island Park, a 50-acre park, houses a Michigan Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial, a skate park, a Timber Town playscape, eight horseshoe pits, open shelters, gazebos and more. If you want something a little more laid-back, check out Millpond Park and take a quiet walk along Chippewa River.

If spending time outside isn’t really your thing, Mount Pleasant has several indoor activities to keep you occupied. Head downtown to the new Karma Kat Cafe, where you can play with adorable adoptable cats. Or, get creative at Painted Turtle Pottery Studio or Intrigue Escape Games.

The next time you find yourself say-

ing, “There’s nothing to do in Mount Pleasant,” take another look around you.

Mount Pleasant is a college town; it is the perfect place for thousands of twentysomething-year-olds to have fun, explore and figure out what they like to do.

For the last 126 years, CMU has been home to its students for eight and a half months every single year, and so has Mount Pleasant. Without the bustling liveliness of CMU students, Mount Pleasant wouldn’t be the same, and without the safe atmosphere and endless opportunities of Mount Pleasant, we wouldn’t be the same either.

Mount Pleasant is our home. Decades from now, when most current CMU students have graduated and moved away, they’ll probably find themselves missing the easy and leisurely lives they were able to live in their college days in Mount Pleasant.

Take advantage of Mount Pleasant and its small college town charm while you’re still here. You will probably be surprised at just how much it has to offer.

Threatening journalists will always backfire Working as an intern reporter for the Jackson Citizen Patriot this summer gave me a lot of “firsts.”

I flew in a hot-air balloon for the first time when I took a Facebook Live video from the lead flight of the Jackson Hot Air Jubilee.

I went ghost-hunting for the first time when I accompanied the Motor City Ghost Hunters as they investigated the future site of the Hackett Auto Museum.

On July 17, I worked from home for the first time after a member of a local right-wing militia group made a threat against the safety of every employee in our office.

The threat ended up being a bluff, directed at our office because a reporter at the The Ann Arbor News, also an MLive publication, wrote a story that could vaguely — and I mean it when I say “vaguely” — have been considered “anti-Trump.”

This wasn’t the first time I received a death threat in my journalism career — that honor goes to the time a Kid Rock fan from Ann Arbor tried to track me down after I took a jab at the him while interning at the Detroit Metro Times. This threat was the first time it’s happened in an age in this country where deadly gun violence isn’t just a

Mitchell Kukulka Investigative Editor

possibility, it’s a reality that plays out in the news on an almost daily basis.

As impotent as the threat was, and as quickly as it became a dark in-joke between everyone in the office, it still came during a time when threats against members of the media are at an all-time high.

The deadly shooting that killed five and injured two at the offices of The Capital Gazette in Annapolis, Maryland had happened just two weeks earlier, and its shadow still loomed over newsrooms throughout the country.

The shooting itself came days after wannabe author and failed-provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos jokingly told a New York Observer reporter “I can’t wait for vigilante squads to start gunning journalists down on sight.”

We’re living in a age where even our president regularly deflects controversies as “fake news” and refers to this nation’s reporters as “the enemy of the people.” Whether it’s out of retaliation

Send to opinion@cm-life.com for what they consider unfair coverage, or because they feel empowered to shift the media’s focus to where they want it, those with vendettas against journalists are becoming more likely to lash out.

As a journalist, and as someone who has worked with journalists of all ages and experience levels, I know one thing

above all else when it comes to threatening reporters: it never works.

When you’re dealing with a group of people who instinctually rush toward danger when it strikes their community, and who deal with combative and uncooperative sources on a daily basis, being threatened with violence won’t make journalists back down — it’ll make them regroup and double down.

Hours after seven of their colleagues were gunned down, the staff of The Capital Gazette put out a paper the next day.

This isn’t to say you should treat journalists as if they’re immune to critical feedback. As professionals who consider the act of disseminating knowledge to our communities to be our one true calling, journalists will always depend on the opinions and reactions of our audience to guide our hands.

When reporters make mistakes, citizens should consider it their duty to ensure errors are corrected and accurate future coverage is encouraged.

Respectful, or at least constructively critical engagement is one of the most valuable gifts you can give a journalist.

Attempts at intimidation and strongarming won’t just be ineffective-they’re one of the strongest indications you can give a journalist that they’re making the right people angry.

Where was Nike to support Colin Kaepernick two years ago?

Infamously in 2016, Colin Kaepernick — former San Francisco 49ers quarterback and current NFL free agent — began kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice and police brutality.

Nike unveiled an advertisement campaign featuring Kaepernick to celebrate its 30th anniversary of “Just Do It” on Sept. 3. Below Kaepernick’s eyes in the black-and-white picture, the text reads: “Believe in something. Even if it means sacrificing everything.”

First of all, can you really “sacrifice everything” and still keep a contract with Nike? I don’t think so.

Nonetheless, it has become easy to lose a grip on the truth behind what the 30-year-old quarterback was actually protesting back in 2016: to make a movement against racial injustice. By kneeling for the national anthem, Kaepernick’s fight was diluted because many people felt it was an attack against the United States of America.

Kneeling during the national anthem was never intended to object the U.S. military or the flag. However, everyone has, and is entitled to, their own personal

Evan Petzold Staff Reporter

opinions, and many mistook the motive of the protest.

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick said to the media on Aug. 27, 2016.

“To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

Fast forward about two years to the Nike campaign. It has also weakened the truth behind Kaepernick’s original protest.

Nike is a business that dominates the world of athletic gear. The company is the NFL’s official sponsor and gives all 32 teams apparel, including game-worn jerseys.

However since Nike has stepped in, the entire movement started by Kaepernick has been hijacked. It has nothing to do with the former NFL quarterback.

Instead, it has everything to do with Nike. The company now runs the racial injustice movement. I’ve watched as people talk more about Nike than Kaepernick, the NFL or police brutality.

Nike, working the “Just Do It” campaign for 30 years, embraces the underdog - someone who has the odds stacked against them.

That’s where the business aspect comes into play.

Two groups of people that could be considered underdogs are young people and African Americans.

Black spending power has jumped to being responsible for about $1.2 trillion in purchases annually. And 38 percent of African Americans between the ages of 18 and 34 expect the brands they buy to support social causes.

The only business on the same level as Nike when it comes to marketing to young people is Apple. Essentially, there’s Nike, Apple and then everyone else.

In Nike’s case, bringing on Kaepernick

gives the company an opportunity to be a dominant target audience for African Americans and young people.

It seems Kaepernick’s movement was highjacked from right under him. It’s an outstanding business move for Nike but makes Kaepernick look like a puppet. For the last two years, Nike paid him but did not advertise him. Nike was worried its numbers would plummet when the kneeling commenced.

If Nike was really brave, it would’ve put out Kaepernick’s “Just Do It” campaign a year ago. Or two.

Another considerable issue is the fact that Nike left Kaepernick out to dry until it became beneficial for them to show him support. There is no morality for a business — it’s all about making money. Nike had been paying Kaepernick all along and waiting for the right moment to release his “Just Do It” advertisement.

The question remains — how is history going to remember the Kaepernick story?

Nike highjacking the movement and treating Kaepernick as a puppet is not a good way to complete the story in a way that will help end racial injustice.

It’s strictly business.

hether you’re new to Mount Pleasant or returning, there are more places to discover in downtown Mount Pleasant than ever.

While a plethora of bars downtown like The Bird and Encore attract a late-night crowd, there are plenty of specialty businesses, parks and eateries just a short walk from the campus of Central Michigan University.

Downtown locations, no matter the city, provide a unique perspective on a town and community and this is especially true for Mount Pleasant. As a university student, it can be easy to get stuck in a “campus bubble,” resulting in a disconnect from the surrounding community.

Downtown Development Director Michelle Sponseller encourages students to explore the downtown and meet local business owners.

“Take this time as a student to become part of our community,” Sponseller said. “When you’re shopping or eating local, those dollars stay in our community.”

Browsing downtown offers a break from driving that congested, long stretch of Mission Street, and helping these local store owners also helps contribute to the local economy, Sponseller said.

Despite what you might think, downtown has much to offer students and young adults all the way from resources to de-stress and get fit, to one-of-a-kind restaurants and boutiques. Here is your guide to downtown Mount Pleasant.

EATERIES Eating out is a pastime loved by many and is a frequent occasion for college students with busy schedules. Next time you are trying to decide where to eat, remember the 14 unique local eateries downtown that have a range of price points.

Miss that homemade breakfast your mother used to make on weekend mornings? Stan’s is the quaint diner on Broadway Street that has thrived for more than 60 years in the downtown area. It is usually packed on weekends, but worth the wait. “(Eating local) you get a flavor for the community,” Sponseller said. “You’re going to meet people who are tied to w DOWNTOWN | 8

the community. The owner of the restaurants – you’re going to know who they are because they’re probably working at the establishment.”

If you need a little caffeine during your trip downtown, Ponder Coffee Co. and Pleasant City Coffee both offer great service and tasty drinks and food.

Max and Emily’s Bakery and Café is a popular lunch deli with soups, burgers, salads and vegetarian options. This eatery has an outdoor patio, perfect for enjoying the downtown environment.

In business for 50 years, Pisanello’s Pizza might just prove to be your new favorite pizza place. Its menu features pizzas, “famous” sub sandwiches and salads. Pisanello’s is best known for its lunch pizza buffet that starts at $10.

There are upscale date night diners as well, like Camille’s on the River, Adelaide’s Bistro and The Brass Cafe on Main Street. Brass Cafe’s lunch and dinner menus feature decadent items like lobster bisque and a portabella gouda flatbread.

Be adventurous by visiting Midori Sushi and Martini Lounge, which offers fresh Japanese cuisine and craft cocktails. Their lunch and dinner menus include items like miso soup, a “fire up” sushi roll with eel sauce, teriyaki bowls and “drunken noodles.”

There are certainly more restaurants downtown and taverns to keep in mind when deciding where to go for a night out, such as Mountain Town Station Restaurant and Brew Pub, one of Michigan’s first craft beer breweries, Dog Central, Marty’s Bar, Blue Gator, Blackstone Bar, and more. When it comes to iconic downtown hotspots, The Bird is the word.

“People know The Bird as a place for the bar but some people may not realize the great food that you can get there,” Sponseller said.

ENTERTAINMENT Central Michigan University offers endless entertainment options, but there is a lot of fun to be had by bursting out of that campus bubble. Downtown is a hub for entertainment in Mount Pleasant. Venues like bars, restaurants, clubs and outdoor spaces regularly host concerts, and businesses provide fun activities to cure boredom.

RedBloom Yoga and Mount Pleasant Hot Yoga both offer classes for beginner and intermediate yogis. At RedBloom, your first class is always free and there are discounts offered for students who present a valid school ID. Mount Pleasant Hot Yoga focuses on using heated rooms to warm the muscles, which “helps prevent injuries and allow a deeper workout.”

Spend a day letting your creative energy flow at the Painted Turtle Pottery Studio, browsing local art at GraySky Gallery, or taking a workshop class at Art Reach of Mid Michigan. Art Reach frequently offers open galleries, hosts speaker events and is a medium for art appreciation. If you’re craving more mental stimulation, Intrigue Escape Games on Broadway Street offers a rock star themed escape room attraction.

Through Oct. 25, Mount Pleasant’s farmer’s market is held downtown on Thursdays

and Saturdays. Frequently, they host music groups at the Thursday market in Island Park.

Another popular venue for concerts, mainly of the rock variety, is Rubble’s Bar. On Sept. 14, Rubble’s will host “The Black Sabbath Experience” with a cover band and a tribute to Ozzy Osbourne on Nov. 3.

A newer “hot spot” in town is Centennial Hall. Last year, there were monthly concert events dubbed “Centennial Nights” that showcased local artists and musicians in a unique two-room experience. It was Mount Pleasant’s own take on a music festival. With already one event passed this semester and another called “Pleasant Town Music and Arts Festival” planned for late September, Centennial Hall continues to be a center for entertainment.

PARKS Mount Pleasant is home to 11 parks, which collectively span over 300 acres. Many of them highlight the Chippewa River. The downtown parks mentioned here, are all connected by the 1.8 mile long Gregory K. Baderschneider Riverwalk Trail. “(People) might be really surprised to find out the number of parks we have, how large they are and all the things you can do,” Sponseller said.

Located at the north end of town, Island Park is appropriately named as it is completely bordered by the Chippewa River. This 50-acre park houses a Michigan Vietnam Veterans’ Memorial, a skate park, a Timber Town playscape, eight horseshoe pits, open shelters, gazebos and more. It makes the perfect location for club picnics or to hangout with your new roommates.

Nelson Park, which is connected to Island Park by a bridge, sits in the downtown area as well. Smaller than Island Park, it features a canoe landing, a fishing deck and public restrooms. The park is the perfect place for an end-of-the summer cookout. In the center of the 5-acre plot, there is a rock-covered fountain on display, dubbed Centennial Gardens.

Visitors may notice a bear statue at the top of this display, which gives homage to a real bear that used to be housed there.

Millpond Park, off Adams Street, is a 90-acre park located in the center of the community, with the Chippewa River running through the area.

SALONS AND SPAS Becoming a college student means change, self discovery and learning how to take care of yourself. Spas and salons are great for helping you pamper yourself, de-stress and change up your look. Whether you need a fresh haircut and color or a relaxing massage, there are several options for salons downtown.

De-stress with healthy smoothies or a 60-minute session in a float pod at Pure Vitality Juice Bar and Spa. Located at 128 E. Broadway St. Their services include infrared massage beds, infrared saunas, float pods and a juice bar. Their drinks are packed with

superfoods and unique ingredients like chia seeds, bee pollen and hemp.

In addition to Vitality, there are more than a dozen salons to choose from. Salon Blue and Day Spa, located on University Street, is another spa destination. This salon is unique, however, because their stylists’ range in skill level. The price you pay correlates with the skill level of your technician. The Upper Cut Salon on Main Street offers permanent makeup options, like microblading and permanent lip liner.

Other salons in the area include, Aphrodite Salon, Bob’s Barber Shop, (Real)Experience Hair Design, Total Eclipse Design, Level 7 Studio, Headliner’s and The Downstairs Salon and Boutique.

SHOPPING Department stores are on the list of “things millennials are killing.” Perhaps one reason for this is because there are so many great local shops that offer uncommon styles.

If you’ve been wanting new clothing to spice up your wardrobe, you could stop by Le Fleur Boutique or Trillium Fine Clothing for the latest fashion trends from casual denim and tees to special occasion ensembles. Trillium caries popular brands like Vera Bradley, Brighton accessories, and Estee Lauder.

Motorless Motion is a bicycle shop on Main Street, owned by Terry Quast and managed by Allison Quast-Lents, mayor of Mount Pleasant.

In addition to selling bikes, Motorless Motion offers free tire wear checks, brake pad checks, frame inspections and other services to help you

get your best and safest ride.

Where can you find Wonder Woman, Deadpool and Shirtless Bear Fighter all under one roof? The comic book and pop culture store Hall of Heroes, which recently relocated back downtown to 201 1/2 E. Broadway St. The store provides the latest in Marvel and DC titles as well as comic books from independent publishers such as Image and Dark Horse, and toys and collectables. Freshmen get a 10 percent discount in the store through the end of September. The store also caters to fans of roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons.

GreenTree Cooperative Grocery is a small grocer downtown that offers “healthy, earthfriendly foods.” The store has products such as deli items, frozen and fresh produce and wellness items. Their goal is “to be Mount Pleasant’s premier retail provider of organic and natural foods, while keeping sustainability in mind.” You won’t find foods containing hydrogenated oils or high fructose corn syrup, but you can find products that are certified organic, locally produced, certified non-GMO, fair trade certified and free of growth hormones and antibiotics. If this interests you, visit the shop at 214 N. Franklin St. To stay up to date on events and downtown activity, follow downtown on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter @downtownmp.

Until you explore downtown for yourself you won’t be able to appreciate its amenities and the beauty of Mount Pleasant. Next time you’re bored, take the short walk or drive to downtown and explore one of these businesses or activities.

The bar and music venue is adding Tuesday to its performance schedule.

The new “Tuesday Night Music Series” hosted Indiana indie-folk singer “Anna p.s.” as its inaugural performer Sept. 4.

October, and see what the (turnout is like),” Stankiewicz said. “It’s the same as Monday - it’s a solo artist, occasionally a duet.”

The weekend performances differ from Monday and Tuesday night shows.

Weekday performances take place in the bar itself, while weekend performances feature full bands that play at Rubble’s music venue on the opposite side of the establishment.

Upcoming “Tuesday Night Music Series” performances will feature Ronnie Torres at 9 p.m. Sept. 11 and Sarah Faye Jamison at 9 p.m. Sept. 18.

REGISTER TO VOTE WITH EASE: MOBILE SECRETARY OF STATE ON CAMPUS MONDAY Register, Educate, Vote, a Registered Student Organization, and the campus coalition Central Votes are bringing a mobile Secretary of State station to campus to make voter registration easier for students.

The mobile station will be parked outside the UC from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sept. 10.

Students will be able to use their Michigan state ID or CMU ID to register to vote in upcoming elections.

REV President Winnie

Walsh said a common reason students choose not to vote is that they think they must vote in person if it’s their first time voting. But what many don’t know, she said, is that registering to vote in person makes the voter exempt from the rule.

“This law is particularly challenging for college students because most students do not want to change their permanent address in order to vote in Mount Pleasant, but they cannot drive home on

Election Day due to class and work,” Walsh said.

Voting at the mobile SOS counts as registering in person, so students who register will be immediately eligible for absentee ballots and can register with their home town rather than their Mount Pleasant address.

The 2018 Midterm Election is on Nov. 8. A choice for Michigan’s new governor will be on the ballot.

SHOCKED IN HOME OPENER

Low scoring and turnovers raise questions about football’s offensive consistency

By Andrew McDonald Staff Reporter sports@cm-life.com

Ben Suddendorf | Staff Photographer

Sophomore quarterback Tony Poljan slings the ball on Sept. 8 at Kelly/Shorts Stadium.

Central Michigan’s offense didn’t score in the second half against Kentucky in week one. Now after playing Kansas, the Chippewas have only managed one offensive score in the last six quarters.

They lost to the JayHawks 31-7 at the first home game on Sept. 8 at Kelly/ Shorts Stadium.

“I don’t think we overlooked anybody, we just didn’t execute very well,” said CMU head coach John Bonamego. “They are hurting right now and we all are, they should be and I want them to feel that way. If they don’t, something would really be wrong.”

Sophomore quarterback Tony Poljan had no turnovers in week one. In week two he threw four interceptions, one of them was returned for a touchdown. Junior running back Jonathan Ward had 1,017 yards in 2017. This season, he’s totaled 65 yards in two contests.

The Chippewas offensive consistency has yet to find a balance and it’s a combination of problems, Bonamego said.

“It’s a lot of things that aren’t quite good enough. Obviously picks go on quarterbacks, I think (Poljan) needs to process a little bit better because he was pressing a little bit in the fourth quarter trying to make something happen,” Bonamego said.

“He will learn from this, he will be better and we will be a better team for him.”

Bonamego believes the running game will get going once the team can throw more down field.

“We have to be able to open some stuff up with vertical passing and then I think we will see that,” he said. “Their safeties

were able to stay down in the box.”

The Chippewas only had a total of 36 yards of offense in the first quarter. They had one first down the entire first half.

They were 2-of-12 on third down.

This all came against a team in Kansas who had lost 49 consecutive road games dating back to 2009.

“Penalties hurt us and we had some minus plays and we just weren’t in sync,” Bonamego said. “Early in the game they had a good pass rush. Late in the game it felt like we did get some rhythm and were able to execute.”

Junior wide receiver Jamil Sabbagh caught his first-career touchdown in a Chippewa uniform for the teams only score. He said he will never question Poljan’s decision making.

“What they talk about in the quarterback room with their reads is on them,” Sabbagh said. “As a wideout I’m just going to do my job and be where I got to be.”

Sabbagh said he feels being young as a receiving core is affecting the passing game.

“I think we just need to execute more,” he said. “We are in the right positions and making the right play calls. We have to keep the chains moving on third down and keep our defense off the field.”

Kansas controlled the ball for more than 36 minutes in the game, while CMU’s offense managed to possess for just more than 23 minutes.

Senior linebacker Malik Fountain said three and outs will wear any team down.

“Regardless we are conditioned, so we need to play better,” Fountain said. “Both sides of the ball need to play better than they did today.”

The Chippewas next play at Northern Illinois Sept. 15.
