The  goal  is  to  inform  students  about  the  referendum  and  that  students  “aren’t  voting  out  of  the  blue,â€?  Mendoza  said,  pointing  at  the  blue  t-­shirt  and  laughing.  Erica  Quiroz,  the  student  assistant  for  College  Beat  Productions,  did  not  wear  her  USU  referendum  t-­shirt  on  Wednesday;Íž  she  said  she  forgot.  She  also  said  that  if  WKH UHIHUHQGXP SDVVHV LW ZRXOG EH D EHQHÂżW WR VWXGHQWV In  the  Beach  Pride  Center  on  Wednesday,  Program  Council  Activities  Coordinator  Taylor  Buhler-­ Scott  also  opted  to  not  wear  her  USU  referendum  t-­shirt.  Buhler-­Scott  said  that  the  USU  is  in  favor  of  the  referendum,  but  that  she  could  not  speak  on  behalf  of  ASI.  She  indicated  that  questions  regarding  the  USU  referendum  typically  run  through  ASI  Communications  Manager  Lindsay  San  Miguel.  Quiroz  said  that  College  Beat  has  been  participating  in  a  lot  of  discussions  with  San  Miguel  in  regards  to  the  USU  referendum.  Quiroz  said  that  she  sees  a  lot  more  of  San  Miguel  now  that  former  College  Beat  graduate  supervisor  Geno  Mehalik  is  no  longer  at  CSULB.

She  met  with  Skip  Keasal  and  George  Medak.  Both  are  alumni  of  CSULB  and  ELJ ÂżQDQFLDO FRQWULEXWRUV &RQROH\ PHW with  them  to  get  advice  regarding  how  to  encourage  the  CSU  Board  of  Trustees  to  let  her  take  on  more  responsibility.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  know  they  care  deeply.  They  donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  any  personal  gain  or  interest,â&#x20AC;?  Conoley  said  of  Keasal  and  Medak.

Conoley  listed  two  goals  to  strive  for  GXULQJ KHU SUHVLGHQF\ ¿UVWO\ VKH ZDQWV to  add  more  full-­time  faculty  and  keep  part-­time  faculty  that  students  are  fond  of  around.

Molding  a  career  out  of  clay Trimbleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire to work in art and education lead to his position as interim director for the UAM. BY  RUBEN  DIAZ Assistant  News  Editor

Ceramics helped him get through high school. Once he graduated, he knew he would pursue a career in the arts.

Brian Trimble attended Cal State University Long Beach for his Bachelor of Fine Arts, and then went back for his Masters of Art in art education and Doctor of Education in educational leadership.

Last summer, Christopher Scoates, the previous University Art Museum director, left CSULB to lead as the first alumnus director at the Cranbrook Academy of Art and Museum. After he left, Trimble was announced as the interim director for the UAM on Aug. 14.

Although his recently obtained position is new to him, he said his journey for pursing art and education started off in high school.

After high school, Trimble began his undergraduate degree at Long Beach

City College, and then transferred to CSULB. At CSULB, he managed to get a job working at the College of Education as a student assistant, and then got a new position there working with student teachers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worked with a lot of people at the College of Education that showed a commitment to helping students,â&#x20AC;?

Trimble said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As I was going to school in the College of the Arts, the faculty was the same. They were committed to helping students.â&#x20AC;?

After graduating from CSULB, he decided to leave the College of Education to pursue a different profession. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I left to teach high school, but it was not my thing,â&#x20AC;? Trimble said.

Even though teaching high school did not work out for him, he said he knew he wanted to work in art and education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started working weekends at the Getty,â&#x20AC;? Trimble said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how I started working in a museum.â&#x20AC;?

Trimble said Liz Harvey, the previous curator for education for the UAM, â&#x20AC;&#x153;hired him to work at the Getty.â&#x20AC;? After she left her position, Trimble then took over and became the new curator of education for the UAM in 2005.

Along with working for the UAM, Trimble also served as an instructor for liberal study and art classes at CSULB. One class he taught was Liberal Studies 404, which explored relationships between the visual arts, dance, theater,

creative writing, music and other forms of creative expression, as well as their relationship to criticism and various broader values, Trimble said. He taught from 2002 to 2013.

In his position, he said he is in charge things like making sure construction is completed, and working on the exhibitions coming up.

Trimble is leading a project with the Getty Conservation Institute that will celebrate the 50th anniversary of the International Sculpture Symposium, which he said is expected to be on campus next fall.

Kristina Newhouse, the curator of exhibitions for the UAM, said she has known Trimble since the mid 1990s, which was when they were both studying ceramics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I considered applying for the position of curator at the UAM, my first thought was that it would be wonderful to work with Brian,â&#x20AC;? Newhouse said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been the case. He is a great boss and colleague.â&#x20AC;?

She added that â&#x20AC;&#x153;normally in the cultural of art museums, there is a deep divide between the curatorial and educational programs.â&#x20AC;? In this case, Newhouse said she and Trimble managed to avoid this because of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;shared and deep commitment for introducing students on this campus to the arts through UAM exhibitions and programming.â&#x20AC;?

Trimble said making connections with people in the field and applying for

So,  why  arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  headliners  stopping  at  Cal  State  University  Long  Beach? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  top  two  things  would  be  venue  and  money,â&#x20AC;?  said  Keya  Allen,  CSULB  alumna  and  program  man-­ ager  of  16  years.  At  the  Nugget  Grill  &  Pub,  stu-­ dents  got  to  experience  Led  Zep-­ pelin,  Sublime  and  Red  Hot  Chili  Peppers  before  their  heyday.  More  recent  decades  have  seen  campus  host  a  Fergie-­less  Black  Eyed  Peas  and  a  pre-­Spiderman  soundtrack  Nickelback.  Torched  patches  of  grass  and  bust-­ ed  water  vanes  were  all  that  was  left  of  the  George  Allen  Field  in  2003  when  the  Vans  Warped  Tour  came  through  campus.  Although  it  sold-­out  and  was  conceptually  successful,  the  cracks  in  the  plan  ended  up  costing  the  school  â&#x20AC;&#x153;tons  of  money,â&#x20AC;?  Allen  said.

Ludacris  marks  the  last  headliner  to  come  to  The  Beach.  He  performed  at  the  Walter  Pyramid  in  2008,  to  much  avail.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Staging,  lighting,  the  soundâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; it  was  amazing.  It  even  rained  that  day,â&#x20AC;?  Allen  said.  Yet  the  event  only  sold  1,500  of  the  4,000  tickets  avail-­ able  to  students.  After  the  University  Student  Union  Program  Council  and  Associ-­ ated  Student  Inc.  had  organized  the  event,  even  dealing  with  protestors  against  Ludacrisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  lyrical  misogyny  in  the  process,  the  fundamental  fall-­out Â

was  rooted  in  getting  the  word  out,  Allen  said.  Allen  said  that  authorities  were  FDXWLRXV WR &68/%ÂśV ÂżUVWKDQG LQWUR-­ duction  to  hip-­hop  culture  on  a  large  scale.  2IÂżFLDO ZRUG IURP SROLFH DQG LQ-­ surance  companies  restricted  promo-­ tion  and  event  advertisement,  Allen  said,  until  one  week  prior  to  the  per-­ formance  in  order  to  avoid  excessive  hype.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  just  had  a  lot  of  red  tape,â&#x20AC;?  Al-­ len  said.

At  maximum  capacity,  the  pyra-­ mid  can  hold  5,000  of  the  36,000  stu-­ dents  currently  enrolled.  CSULBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  hilly  incline  and  lack  of  designated  areas  come  into  play  when  moving  concerts  outdoors,  Allen  said.

Los  Angeles  is  oozing  with  live  music.  Surprisingly,  this  factor  suf-­ focates  CSULB  from  full  potential  since  t he  city  is  so  available  to  a rtists,  accommodating  them  cozily  in  mat-­ WHUV RI ERWK YHQXH DQG SURÂżW Beach  Blast  brought  acts  like  Smashmouth  and  Reel  Big  Fish  to  campus  for  CSULBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  first  major  concert  in  the  Pyramid  sponsored  by  ASI.  The  university  lost  $56,260  in  throwing  the  event,  according  to  ASI  chief  administrator  Richard  Haller  when  the  concert  took  place  in  1999. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  school  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  seem  in-­ terested  in  hosting  concerts,  even  though  ASI  has  stated  that  as  one  of  its  goalsâ&#x20AC;?  Will  Torres,  president  of  the  Underground  Music  Society,  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Music  should  be  a  bigger  part  of  campus  culture.â&#x20AC;?

reaking  ranks  with  most  of  the  other  circuit  courts,  the  U.S.  6th  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  on  Thursday  upheld  bans  on  same-­sex  marriage,  thus  overturning  lower-­court  rulings  in  cases  originating  from  Kentucky,  Michigan,  Ohio  and  Tennessee.  In  contrast,  other  federal  appellate  courts  have  recently  QXOOLÂżHG LGHQWLFDO EDQV LQ WKLUWHHQ states,  thus  creating  a  â&#x20AC;&#x153;circuit  split.â&#x20AC;?  This  decision  would  appear  to  be  a  dra-­ matic  victory  for  opponents  of  same-­sex  marriage;Íž  however,  this  decision  truly  isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  a  setback  for  gay  marriage.  Rather,  it  will  likely  force  the  U.S.  Supreme  Court  to  decide  the  issue  once  and  for  all,  and  in  light  of  the  Supreme  Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  ruling  in  United  States  v.  Wind-­ sor  in  2013,  the  Court  will  likely  rule  5-­4  in  favor  of  preventing  states  from  discriminating  based  on  sexual  orienta-­ tion  when  providing  marriage  licenses.  This  decision  provides  the  circuit  split  that  the  Supreme  Court  needs  in  order  to  rule  on  the  issue,  which  was  lacking  last  month  when  the  Court  de-­ clined  to  hear  appeals  from  the  4th,  7th Â

and  10th  Circuit  Courts  of  Appeal.   â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  the  courts  do  not  let  the  peo-­ ple  resolve  new  social  issues  like  this  one,  they  perpetuate  the  idea  that  the  heroes  in  these  change  events  are  judges  and  lawyers,â&#x20AC;?  Circuit  Judge  Jeffrey  S.  Sutton,  the  author  of  the  majority  opinion,  wrote.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Better,  in  this  instance,  we  think,  to  allow  change  through  the  customary  political  processes,  in  which  the  people,  gay  and  straight  alike,  be-­ come  the  heroes  of  their  own  stories  by  meeting  each  other  not  as  adversaries  in  a  court  system  but  as  fellow  citizens  seeking  to  resolve  a  new  social  issue  in  a  fair-­minded  way.â&#x20AC;?

7KLV GHFLVLRQ FRQĂ&#x20AC;LFWV ZLWK WKH federal  appeals  courts  in  other  circuits,  which  is  exactly  the  type  of  division  on  legal  issues  that  the  Supreme  Court  usually  steps  in  to  resolve. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A  circuit  split  never  guarantees  that  the  U.S.  Supreme  Court  will  grant  certiorari  and  take  a  case,â&#x20AC;?  said  Professor  Lewis  Ringel,  who  directs  the  Moot  Court  program  and  teaches  Constitu-­ tional  Law  at  Cal  State  Long  Beach.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;The  existence  of  a  circuit  split,  if  there  is  indeed  one,  typically  increases  the  chances  that  the  United  States  Supreme  Court  will  pick  up  an  issue.   This  is  be-­ cause  there  is  evidence  of  disagreement,  even  uncertainty,  on  the  part  of  courts  below  and  because  there  will  be  different  standards  of  federal  rights  and  liberties  that  will  depend  on  where  on  lives.â&#x20AC;?

The  principle  legal  argument  asserted  by  the  U.S.  6th  Circuit  Court  against  same-­sex  marriage  advocates  was  that  any  decisions  regarding  same-­sex  marriage  should  be  made  by  the  people  through  their  elected  representatives  at  the  state  level,  as  opposed  to  judges  applying  the  Constitution.  Despite  the  Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  ruling  that  the  marriage  bans  for  same-­sex  couples  were  not  enacted  based  out  of  hostility  (â&#x20AC;&#x153;animusâ&#x20AC;?)  towards  gays  and  lesbians,  the  Supreme  Court  will  likely  rule  otherwise,  as  it  did  in  the  2013  Windsor  case,  once  it  agrees  to  hear  the  forth-­ coming  appeal.  In  the  Windsor  case,  the  Court  held  that  the  Defense  of  Marriage  Act  (a  federal  law)  â&#x20AC;&#x153;operates  to  deprive  VDPH VH[ FRXSOHV RI WKH EHQHÂżWV DQG responsibilities  that  come  with  federal  recognition  of  their  marriages.â&#x20AC;?  The  Court  continued  and  stated  that,  â&#x20AC;&#x153;This  is  strong  evidence  of  a  law  having  the  purpose  and  effect  of  disapproval  of  a  class  recognized  and  protected  by  state  law.â&#x20AC;?

Although  Justices  Samuel  Alito,  Clarence  Thomas,  the  infamous  Anto-­ nin  Scalia  and  Chief  Justice  John  Rob-­ erts  will  likely  rule  in  favor  allowing  states  to  ban  same-­sex  marriage,  their  voices  will  likely  be  drowned  out  by  the  ¿YH RWKHU MXVWLFHV ZKR VLGHG ZLWK JD\ marriage  advocates  during  the  U.S.  v.  Windsor  decision.  Â

No fear of powerhouse leagues

cheduling  opponents  from  the  major  college  conferences  is  nothing  new  for  the  Long  Beach  State  menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  basketball  team.  In  college  basketball,  there  are  six  confer-­ HQFHV ZLGHO\ FRQVLGHUHG E\ H[SHUWV WR EH VLJQLÂżFDQW-­ ly  better  than  the  rest:  the  Big  East,  Pac-­12,  SEC,  Big  12,  Big  Ten  and  ACC.  Schools  in  these  conferences  are  regularly  on  TV,  and  most  are  expected  to  at  the  very  least  make  the  NCAA  Tournament.

LBSU  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  play  in  one  of  the  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Power  Conferenc-­ es;Ížâ&#x20AC;?  instead,  the  school  faces  what  is  considered  to  bw  the  weaker  competition  of  the  Big  West  Conference.  That  hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  stopped  49ers  head  coach  Dan  Monson  from  scheduling  the  toughest  opponents  possible.  Last  year,  the  49ers  played  three  Pac-­12  teams,  one Â

Big-­12  team,  one  Big-­10  team,  one  ACC  team  and  one  SEC  team.  Teams  like  LBSU  schedule  tough  out-­of-­confer-­ ence  opponents  because  of  the  relatively  weak  confer-­ ence  they  play  in.  The  stronger  a  teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  schedule  is,  the  better  their  Rating  Percentage  Index  will  be  at  the  end  of  the  season.  All  of  this  is  done  with  one  goal  in  mind:  the  NCAA  Tournament.  If  a  team  fails  to  win  its  respec-­ tive  conference  tournament,  which  would  give  them  an  automatic  bid  in  the  tournament,  then  its  RPI  will  be  used  to  determine  whether  they  get  a  ticket  to  the  Big  Dance.  This  year,  the  49ers  have  again  set  themselves  up  to  have  a  strong  RPI.  They  will  play  eight  teams  from Â

power  conferences  in  addition  to  BYU,  an  NCAA  Tournament  regular.  Four  of  the  eight  power  conference  opponents  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  Louisville,  Texas,  San  Diego  State  and  Syracuse  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  are  ranked  in  the  A P  preseason  top-­25  poll.  Four  other  op-­ ponents  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  UCLA,  Kansas  State,  BYU  and  Stephen  F.  Austin  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  also  received  votes.  :KDW PDNHV WKLQJV PRUH GLIÂżFXOW IRU WKH HUV LV WKDW they  will  play  the  majority  of  these  teams  either  on  the  road  or  on  a  neutral  site,  with  the  one  exception  being  Kansas  State  at  home  for  the  fourth  game  of  the  season.

LBSU  doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  appear  concerned  with  what  looks  like  a  daunting,  out-­of-­conference  schedule.  Senior  forward  David  Samuels  said  that  the  team  just  has  to  continue  to  work  hard  in  practice.  Â

Those  six  players  (Alex  Sanchez,  Chantel  Dooley,  Bianka  Balthazar,  Hallie  Meneses,  Devin  Hudson  and  Lauren  Spargo)  want  a  taste  of  the  NCAA  Tournament,  something  they  were  so  close  to  getting  in  their  fresh-­ man  year.  But  they  have  some  tough  competition  to  go  through.

After  several  team  drills  practicing  dif-­ ferent  in-­game  situations,  Long  Beach  State  menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  basketball  coach  Dan  Monson  instructs  his  team  to  start  doing  sprints  from  one  end  of  the  court  to  the  other.  Most  of  the  players  are  hunched  over,  clutching  their  shorts  and  gasp-­ ing  for  air  as  exhaustion  from  a  three-­hour  practice  sets  in.

Two  players  move  off  to  the  side  as  the  rest  of  the  team  starts  running.  They  sit  next  to  each  other,  place  their  feet  under  a  small  part  of  the  bleachers  and  start  doing  crunches.  7KH\ ¿QLVK WKHLU VHWV KHOS HDFK RWKHU XS then  begin  sprinting  up  and  down  the  court  to-­ gether.  There  are  others  running,  but  they  only  see  each  other.  Their  competitiveness  begins  WR WDNH RYHU DQG LQ WKH ¿QDO VSULQW WKH\ JLYH whatever  they  have  left  to  beat  each  other.

The  sprint  ends,  and  the  players  look  at  each  other,  trying  to  hold  back  smiles.  They  slap  hands  and  join  the  rest  of  the  team  in  the  last  portion  of  practice.

Senior  point  guard  Mike  Caffey  and  fresh-­

man  point  guard  Justin  Bibbins  have  estab-­ lished  a  veteran  and  rookie  mentorship,  as  the  latter  prepares  to  take  control  of  a  team  that  the  former  has  run  for  the  past  three  years.

Caffey  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  a  two-­time,  All-­Big  West  selec-­ tion  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  is  by  no  means  in  danger  of  losing  his  starting  spot  to  Bibbins.  But  as  the  leader  of  what  head  coach  Dan  Monson  has  called  the  deepest  team  in  school  history,  part  of  his  re-­ sponsibility  is  to  mentor  incoming  freshmen  like  Bibbins.

Bibbins,  a  highly-­touted  recruit  out  of  Bish-­ op  Montgomery  in  nearby  Carson,  said  heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  adjusting  well  to  college  life.  He  credits  Mon-­ son  and  the  coaching  staff  for  making  it  an  easy  transition,  and  singles  out  senior  guards  Caffey,  Tyler  Lamb  and  McKay  LaSalle  for  being  great  leaders.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those  three  do  a  great  job  of  talking  to  me  and  mentoring  me,â&#x20AC;?  Bibbins  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;When  I  have  questions,  theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll  explain  it.  They  tell  me  the  ins  and  outs  of  college  basketball.â&#x20AC;?   %LEELQVÂś VPDOO VWDWXUH Âą KHÂśV OLVWHG DW ÂżYH foot-­eight-­inches  and  150  pounds  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  has  been  the  biggest  thing  heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  had  to  overcome  as  he  gets  accustomed  to  the  strength  of  Division  I  athletes.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Guys  are  bigger,  faster  and  longer,â&#x20AC;?  Bib-­ bins  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  just  the  biggest  adjustment.  ,WÂśV DERXW ÂżJXULQJ RXW ZKDW , FDQ GR RXW WKHUH at  my  height  and  size.â&#x20AC;?

With  practice  about  to  wrap  up,  Caffey  hangs  around  Bibbinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  ear,  his  arm  sitting  on  top  of  Bibbinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  shoulder.  Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  going  over  the  last  play,  pointing  out  where  Bibbins  should  have  been  positioned  defensively.  Bibbins  is  silent  the  entire  time,  his  eyes  pointed  straight  ahead,  moving  only  where  Caffeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  hand  moves.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just  listen,â&#x20AC;?  Caffey  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  have  that  entitlement  that  you  [think  you]  deserve  stuff.  Just  come  in  and  do  what  the  coaches  say.  Freshman  year,  thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  what  I  did,  and  it  kind  of  helped  me  out  throughout  my  career.â&#x20AC;?

For  now,  though,  as  they  run  sprints  and  in-­ dividual  drills  in  practice,  Bibbins  is  enjoying  the  relationship  he  and  Caffey  have  built.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;I  look  up  to  him,â&#x20AC;?  Bibbins  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  like  a  big  brother  to  me.  Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  the  best  point  guard  in  the  Big  West;Íž  so,  just  guarding  him  everyday  makes  me  better.â&#x20AC;?

On top of the tough conference schedule, non-conference opponents look to be just as strong.

The 49ersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; preseason schedule will include USC, Louisiana State and California.

USC is the defending Pac-12 champion, LSU advanced to the Sweet 16 and Cal progressed to the second round of the NCAA Tournament last year.

This means that LBSU will be facing nationally recognized and continually successful teams.

In the preseason coachesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; poll, Cal was ranked No. 14 and LSU at No. 24, with USC receiving seven votes.

Kim said that no matter who is on the schedule, her team will come out confident and eager to play their usual â&#x20AC;&#x153;fast-paced, but in controlâ&#x20AC;? game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even consider us underdogs, but since theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re placing us as underdogs, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mind,â&#x20AC;? Kim said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to shock the conference. If we play our game, we should go undefeated.â&#x20AC;?

The 49ers have made strides the past couple of seasons, but the end results havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compared to that 2011-2012 season.

The team is not deterred by the challenges facing them, though, saying they expect to be fighting for a championship this season.

The 49ersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; season and home opener is this Friday against Seattle University. The game is set to start at 7 p.m. in the Walter Pyramid.

Spargo  also  stressed  the  importance  of  the  continuity  and  familiarity  of  this  yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;  squad.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  fun  to  have  a  lot  of  returners  from  last  year,â&#x20AC;?  Spargo  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;We  all  know  the  system,  and  weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve  played  with  each  other.  Even  the  freshmen  class  last  year,  they  were  NLQG RI WKURZQ LQWR WKH ÂżUH ZKHQ WKH\ ÂżUVW got  here,  and  we  really  needed  them.â&#x20AC;?

Of  the  four  freshmen  last  year,  two  of  them,  Anna  Kim  and  Raven  Benton,  averaged  over  20  minutes  per  game  last  year.  The  other  two,  Madison  Montgomery  and  Jewelyn  Sawyer,  averaged  just  under  20  minutes.  Wynn  said  that  usually  one  or  two  fresh-­ men  would  break  into  the  lineup  or  the  rota-­ tion.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;But  to  have  all  four  â&#x20AC;&#x201C;  they  got  great  quality  playing  time,â&#x20AC;?  Wynn  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;By  the  end  of  last  year,  we  didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t  really  consider  them  freshmen  any  longer  because  of  their  experience.â&#x20AC;?

Kim,  whose  22.9  minutes  per  game  was  the  highest  among  freshmen,  admitted  that  it  was  nerve-­wracking  to  compete  against  older  girls. Â

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most  freshmen  play  one  or  two  minutes,  but  to  have  a  coach  like  coach  Jodie  and  her  coaching  staff  to  the  point  where  she  trusted  us  and  was  like,  â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;here,  go  play,  letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  see  what  you  can  do,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?  Kim  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;All  of  us  responded  quite  well  and  had  a  lot  of  fun.  I  think  it  pre-­ pared  us  for  this  season.â&#x20AC;?

Kim  also  stressed  how  g reat  it  was  to  have  such  a  veteran  team;Íž  as  a  point  guard,  she  found  a  mentor  in  Meneses. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re  both  point  g uards,  and  she  showed  me  the  way,â&#x20AC;?  Kim  said.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;How  to  be  a  point  guard,  how  to  be  composed  on  the  court  and  how  to  act  in  certain  situations.â&#x20AC;?
