What happens if an athlete gets hurt? Hutchinson Community College has an entire department dedicated to sports medicine- a branch of medicine that treats and prevents injuries related to sports and exercise. Not only does HutchCC have three certified athletic trainers helping athletes with injuries at practices and games, they also have six student athletic trainers helping cover contact sports on campus. “I help treat and prevent injuries so that athletes can keep doing what they love,” said Levi Allen, Hutchinson. HutchCC’s Sports Medicine program allows students interested in athletic training to get hands on experience. Students in the program go to practices and games, helping athletes tape ankles, ice muscles and perform rehabilitation. “When I’m watching a football game I watch the interior part. I’m watching the play develop because those guys have a tendency to get hurt first,” said Coordinator of Sports Medicine Ryan Hilty.

Hilty insures there is a trainer at each football, volleyball, softball, baseball, and basketball game and practice. Athletes, certified trainers and students get to work together, but also create friendships. “My favorite part is being able to form amazing friendships. I have big brothers, little sisters, and best friends. All of whom I have seen struggle, and I’ve gotten to be there to help them work their way back to where they need to be,” said Bailey Goodman, Bentley. “It is not so much the sport itself, it’s the kids that are involved with the sport. Because you get a lot of these kids you get to know one on one basis. And so you kind of develop a friendship. And so that friendship, you know, you enjoy watching the sport because of them,” Hilty said. HutchCC’s student trainers get involved in the sports medicine program in numerous ways. “I wanted to stay involved in sports,” said Allen.
“I had marked ‘interested in Sports Medicine’ on an activities card at recruitment day. Ryan Hilty contacted me and now I have been an AT for two years,” said Goodman. While athletic trainers go to most sports, they still have a favorite to watch. “I started out as a manager for the baseball team. And so when I started doing athletic training, I just was their athletic training student in high school, and then we won state my senior year. And so, baseball is something that I’ve just always enjoyed,” said Head Athletic Trainer Amanda Beadle. The demand for athletic trainers continues to grow as youth sports continues to grow. “The state of Kansas is actually required for 6A schools to have an athletic trainer,” said Hilty, “I think it’s on the rise in the Midwest.” 1.

Student accompanist Natalie Schweizer shares her musical gift through on campus performances Story & Design | Kira Crow
For those who’ve attended any choir or band performances this year, chances are you’ve seen Natalie Schweizer. She’s a familiar face on campus. As a first-year student coming in as a sophomore, Schweizer is very involved on campus and known by many. She is involved in Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, Wind Symphony, Jazz Band, Badinage, Concert Choir, and Campus Crusade for Christ. Additionally, she sings and plays the French horn and piano, and serves as an

accompanist for both band and choir shows. Just this school year, she has been in 10 to 12 campus concerts. She is majoring in music education and her end goal is to become a music teacher. Schweizer decided to come to HutchCC because, “it was a great place to start. I’ve had three older siblings come here and they’ve all come back with great stories. I’m very much blessed in the music department to be so fully participated in just a year.” When it comes to what she likes about HutchCC, Schweizer said, “the people, you can tell they care. I’ve had a lot of professors who, they just they reach out, they notice if I’m not doing so well. The classes have been rigorous enough that it keeps me on my toes. I feel like it’s challenging enough to help me to grow. And I’ve also made some lifelong friends here which is really exciting.” Thanks to Schweizer’s mother, she has been playing piano since she was five or six. She has participated in band and choir since fifth grade. Serving as the piano accompanist for campus performances is an experience. “A challenge,” Schweizer said. “It’s also an exercise of patience with myself, the director, and the kids in the choir. I have to be patient and you have to work hard to

be able to be there and be reliable and dependable. So it’s been good to reinforce that lesson for me.” On top of being so involved with HutchCC, Schweizer also plays piano, keyboard, and sings for her church’s praise and worship team at least once a month. Her Christian beliefs are very important to her. “The biggest part for me is to spread the love of the Lord through music,” she said. One of the many teachers that encourages Schweizer is Professor and Director of Choral Activities, Neal Allsup. Allsup has been teaching at HutchCC for 34 years. In this time, he has had many accompanists and many more students. “I don’t think I could give a higher sense of praise than to say she is truly one of the most talented students musically that I’ve ever had here in 34 years. And usually that goes along with a great, a heightened sense of ego, but not with Natalie. I don’t think that she’s ever had an egotistical thought in her,” Allsup said about having Schweizer as an accompanist. Schweizer is truly a special, hardworking, talented student. These are factors one needs to have in order to be a good accompanist. “For a really great accompanist, they need to kind of feel like they can read the mind. They’re playing along, but they’re also hearing what needs to be fixed so they know as soon as we stop, they’re trying to figure out where we’re going to go back to and she does that so well,” Allsup said. “She has musicianship skills, she doesn’t just sit down and can play a few things, she reads well, she knows the mechanics of what needs to happen, and she thinks ahead.” Schweizer will be graduating this May and transferring to Sterling College to further her education. Sadly, she will no longer be the accompanist for HutchCC.

“Unfortunately we are gonna lose that incredible, incredible talent. I mean with the incredible talent she has musically, she’s an even better person. She’s a remarkable person,” Allsup said. After graduating with her teaching degree from Sterling, Schweizer plans to teach music education. Her dream is to teach Kindergarten through 12th grade music. “Probably the biggest motivation for teaching is that I know there are kids out there who need somebody. They just need somebody who wants them to be there and wants them to succeed and pour into their life and be a mentor for them,” Schweizer said. “I’ve had a lot of teachers through grade school, high school, and college who have done that for me, so I want to turn around and do it for the upcoming generation.” As for any advice she has for fellow students, Schweizer said, “Get yourself involved now. You’ll learn more through experience than you will through watching. There’s value in observing but there’s also value in getting your hands dirty yourself and figuring it out.”

HutchCC has two student publications on campus. The campus newspaper, The Collegian, is produced weekly and usually acquires a staff of around 15 people. Each year, a different student is named Editor-In-Chief for The Collegian. The Collegian covers all campus news, including sports, music concerts, breaking news, and more. Opinions, advice and a podcast can also be found with The Collegian. The other student publication, Dragon’s Tale, is produced two times each semester. The staff covers a wide range of topics including events, people, and students involvement around the community. We selected a few of our previous editors and student leaders to catch up with where they are now.

As editor, Merissa loved being able to connect with other staff members and enjoyed photography. Her most challenging part of being the Collegian’s editor was having a completely new staff and advisor. The staff’s Thursday night jam sessions in the “newspaper dungeon” was one of Merissa’s favorite memories. In 2021, Merissa graduated with a bachelor’s in Secondary English and Journalism Education. She currently teaches 7th grade English Language Arts at Chapman and community photography classes. “Being editor for the Hutchinson Collegian has supported me on my way to where I am today. Newspapers from my time with the Collegian are framed in my house, my KCM Editor of the Year plaque is proudly displayed on my desk.”

HutchCC’s South Campus after life as a U.S. Navy Base: from 1960s to today Design & Story | Kaitlyn Seiwert
In the March 2022 issue of the Dragon’s Tale magazine, I wrote a story on HutchCC’s South Campus and its previous life as a naval base. What started out as a story all about South Campus with a little bit of naval history sprinkled in turned into a deep dive of historical pictures and an overwhelming amount of information. But now, I’m ready to tell you the story of HutchCC’s South Campus…or at least what I know about South Campus. Unfortunately, when South Campus was started, the 12-mile trek from main campus was long and largely unknown. Most of the history was left to be told by individuals, mainly original South Campus instructors. “I was the instructor and coordinator of the Ag Diesel Mechanics Program,” said Dale Conard. In 1976, Conard began his time at South Campus as he built the Ag Diesel program from the ground up. Conard celebrated 40 years of teaching at HutchCC and retired a few years later. Retired Agronomy Instructor Steve Sears said, “I also ran the South Campus greenhouse and took care of the grounds.” Sears started in 1979 and worked at South Campus for 36 years before retiring in May 2016. Sears also coached multiple champion crops judging teams.

According to the Navy documents gathered from the Reno County Museum, the ground transferred from the Navy to HutchCC some time in the 1960s. “The college and Haven High School both applied for the land that they could have as part of dispersing Navy base. Haven High School ended up with 160 acres and (HutchCC) ended up with 525 acres,” Sears said. “The college got it from the government for I think one or two dollars,” said Conard. During research, an exact price or amount of acres could not be located. However, this price is believable, as the U.S. Navy rented the Hutchinson airport for one dollar a year during the construction of the base. The original plan for South Campus looked a little different than it does today. “There was a teacher there, his name was David Disberger. (He) started the horticulture program. When they first acquired the land they were going to have a golf course out at South Campus then they couldn’t find enough irrigation water to water the golf course,” said Sears. Several staff from South Campus have mentioned seeing pieces of the golf course still in fields and pastures surrounding the area. “A lot of times the college just absorbed the (Navy buildings), like we had the bachelor’s officers’ quarters, commonly called the BOQ. That was renamed for Cameron Hall,” Conard said. “That’s where the classes originally were.” According to Sears, the college’s first building at South Campus was Cameron Hall where they used the space for construction classes. In 1975, they started building the Ag Diesel shop. “The college took over Wagner Hall, which was the old motor pool, and that was converted to building construction (classes),” said Conard.

Eventually, the college took over a few more buildings like the Pioneer facility. One of the Ag Diesel students who took classes at South Campus would come back years later to teach on the grounds that were full of rich history. “I got the idea to become a teacher from Dale,” said Wes Ensz, Ag Diesel Mechanics Professor. “Dale was the one that encouraged me to go on, get my bachelor’s degree and become a teacher.” Ensz took some classes at South Campus before continuing on to a bigger school. After years teaching high school agriculture classes and time working for a few corporations, Ensz received a call from a former teacher. “Dale contacted me and said, ‘Hey, we’ve got an opening for an ag diesel instructor, would you be interested?’ It was kind of a fluke, I was teaching a small gas engines night class down here already,” Ensz said. Today, South Campus is dedicated to agricultural classes, as well a few other areas from ag diesel mechanics to plants and soils. All things agriculture occur on the grounds of the old navy base. “Engines, hydraulics, electrical, hay and seeding classes, air conditioning classes, (and) combine operation repair,” Ensz said about the classes they offer. While the classes at South Campus could be considered “unconventional,” to students and faculty on main campus, others have a different opinion. “Too many people, too many buildings (on main campus). I’ve been in one building up there. Out here it’s

just nice to have hands-on stuff,” Noah Patrick, Assaria, said. Some of the retired U.S. Navy land is also occupied by the Kansas Law Enforcement, as well as multiple other businesses. Unfortunately, it was hard to find information on what the 1960s and 70s looked like on South Campus. Hopefully you learned something, whether it be about a Navy base in the middle of Kansas, a ship named after a Kansas town, the fact that there is such a thing as a “combines” class, or that HutchCC has a greenhouse on campus. This has been my favorite spread to put together, so thank you for following along on the journey with me.

Even on a college campus, there’s a need for Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS). At Hutchinson Community College, members of this club are paired with youth in the local school system in a mentoring relationship. “Bigs” are the college students who are paired with a “Little” youth from the local elementary and middle school system in the Hutchinson and Reno County area. Big Brothers began in 1904 when a court clerk named Ernest Coulter saw an increasing number of boys come through his courtroom. He decided that he wanted to help these kids stay out of trouble, so he set out to find adult volunteers to be good influences on the kids. This was the beginning of the Big Brothers movement. In 1970, Big Sisters was incorporated. Shortly after, in 1977, the two clubs merged to form the BBBS of America. Today, there are over 300 agencies in all 50 states and 12 countries. BBBS has served nearly two million youth just within this past decade. HutchCC is proud to be a part of the Bigs Movement. Twice a month, there are meetings where the Bigs and Littles at HutchCC get together and go do fun things in the community. In March, they had a bowling night at The Alley. Students can join this club at any time, they just need to contact club sponsor Lisa Jolliff who also serves
as the Coordinator of Accessibility Services on campus. She has been a part of this club for five years. This year, there are around 25 college students in the club. As for her favorite thing about this club, Jolliff said, “seeing the connections from the Bigs and Littles, so seeing the college kids become mentors to little kids and seeing that relationship just build and blossom has been really fun to see. It’s just really been a lot of fun having those kids coming to our activities. But really just seeing the growth in both the Littles and the Bigs.” Jolliff was involved with Bigs prior to her time at HutchCC and thought that it would be an excellent club to have on campus, especially for the Leadership Scholars. This club has been very beneficial and the Bigs have a very positive impact on the Littles involved.

“That’s really been the neat part, I’ve just seen kids who don’t have good role models in their life or who are lacking in that, and to have somebody who really cares about them, that’s been really neat to see,” Jolliff said. Denise Brodsky is the Area Manager for BBBS in Reno County. She has been involved since 2020 and this organization has had a huge impact on her life. “We’re there to be sort of like their best friend. Not to replace a parent or guardian, but to be there as their best friend,” she said about how HutchCC students participate in the club. Students who join HutchCC Bigs have the opportunity to be matched with a Little, but they do not have to have a match in order to be a part of the club. According to Kansasbigs.org, 90% of former Littles report that their mentor made them feel better about themselves, and 76% learned right from wrong from their mentor. “So many of them just need a positive role model outside of their parents, and watching the Big and the Little share life experiences together is very rewarding and shows the results of how important it is to have a mentor in a child’s life,” Brodsky said. Debating on whether or not to join HutchCC Bigs? Brodsky has advice. “Just do it. I mean it’s really simple.
Just do you. You don’t have to be someone special. There’s a Little waiting for you. You’re not committing enormous amounts of time. It boils down to an hour or two a month which just about anybody can carve out of their schedule. The time on your phone could’ve been spent hanging out with your Little. You don’t have to be connected to an inanimate object, be connected to a living, breathing child,” she said. Morgan Miller, Hutchinson, is a sophomore and has been in HutchCC Bigs for almost two years. She is a mentor to Peyton, an 11 year old girl from a local elementary school. Miller and Peyton meet every two weeks and go do fun activities such as bowling, skating, or going out to dinner. Miller is very glad she decided to join the club because of her and Peyton’s close friendship. “I affected her life by just being a mentor and being someone she feels like she can confide in and have a close friendship with,” Miller said. “If you can, I would definitely advise you to try to get matched with a Little, it’s such a great experience and such a great relationship.” According to guidestar.org, in 2019, there were 2,149 Littles with matches just in Kansas. Brodsky said, “Our youths are our

a dream for all
Kansas astronaut Nick Hague speaks to students. Photos & Story | Kaitlyn Seiwert
Coming from Hoxie, Kansas, Nick Hague spent his childhood looking up at the millions of stars, just like the rest of us. He had dreams to become an astronaut one day and credits his parents’ support for being able to follow his dream. “I want to do what I can to help move and advance that history and that legacy and help us accomplish what we’re after,” said Hague. Hague was the second lecturer of the 2022 HutchCC Dillon Lecture Series at Hutchinson Community College. He opened his lecture by describing the last time he was in the Sports Arena for state basketball nearly 30 years before. Hague, a NASA class of 2013

astronaut, has completed two space missions, one successful and one aborted, received numerous national and international awards, and has flown with Russian cosmonauts and other astronauts from around the world. During his lecture, he showed photos and videos of his first trip to space where the rocket blew up, water in space, space walks, his view of planet Earth, and life on the International Space Station. “It’s a family investment,” Hague said. He spent multiple months in training as he prepared to go to space, and then numerous days in testing labs once he returned to Earth. During this time, he missed several celebrations, including birthdays and anniversaries, but Hague told how his crew would help each other celebrate important days. Despite the risk and long travel, Hague feels it’s all worth it to continue the advancement of present and future humankind’s knowledge of space.

A sport as old as the patent on the telephone itself, baseball charms many around the world with its longstanding traditions. Whether it be the seventh-inning stretch, hot dogs and peanuts at every game or rally caps, baseball has many aspects of its game that revolve around so much more than the play on the field. However, there is one tradition for players that started back in 1970: walk-up songs. Walk-up songs are meant to help get batters and pitchers ready to play, and the Hutchinson Community College baseball players have their favorites. “I think walk-up songs just help me get into my best state of mind for the at bat, and get me in the mentality to do damage at the plate,” said Charlie Mosser, a freshman utility player from Lincoln, Neb. Mosser has “Gimme That” by Chris Brown as his walk-up song. “I picked that song because it’s upbeat, which makes me feel excited when I get on the field. I feel like it’s very catchy,” Mosser said. Some players take a while to decide what the right song to serenade them onto the field is. Others make the decision on a whim. Zane Covey, a pitcher from Golden,

Colo., didn’t take too long to decide what to walk out to the mound to. “It was a very spontaneous decision,” Covey said. “I always thought ‘Free Smoke’ by Drake would be a good walk-up song, but I never thought I threw hard enough to use it. It came on in my car a few days before I had to make my song decision, and I stuck with it.” While walk-up songs are traditionally used to amp players up, they can do more than help a batter or pitcher get into the right state of mind. “The song also gives me an opportunity to show a little bit of my character and personality,” Covey said. Typically, when a player picks a walk-up song at the start of the season, they try to stick with it. “I wouldn’t change my walk-up song if I had the choice,” said Braedyn Sommer, a sophomore infielder from Stillwater, Okla., who decided on “Me Against the World” by Tupac as his walk-up song. “I chose it because I felt the meaning in the song title. I also genuinely like the song,” Sommer said.

Prior to the start of the softball season, the Hutchinson Community College Blue Dragons were picked to
finish in third place in the Jayhawk Conference. After just completing a 13-game winning streak, the Blue Dragons have proven themselves worthy of fighting for first place. HutchCC currently holds a 25-5 record overall, and boast a 16-2 record in Jayhawk Conference play. Blue Dragons Head Coach Jaime
Rose knows that her team has a shared goal, which helps drive her team to work to earn these victories. “Every team in this conference is capable of winning, so we just try to keep getting better,” Rose said. Riley Wertz, a freshman pitcher from Wichita, just earned her fourth Jayhawk Conference Pitcher of the Week honors this season. Not only does Wertz have 0.64 ERA in 43.2 innings pitched, she is also hitting .305 in 59 at-bats. Wertz’s ERA is the second-best in the Jayhawk Conference, and her eight wins have her in fifth best for the Jayhawk Conference. While Wertz is making a name for herself, she recognizes that a lot of her team’s success can be attributed to their on-the-field chemistry. “We’re just a big family,” Wertz said. “I credit our chemistry towards always hanging out with each other, always being around each other. We’re a very close-knit group of playCompleting a home run, #19 Riley Wertz is greeted by her teammates at home plate. Wertz has five home runs this season.

ers this year.” Haley Miller, a sophomore utility player from Hutchinson, also knows that her team’s connection starts off the field. “We have such a bond with each other,” Miller said. “We’re really close off the field and on the field. It helps when we’re playing, we dance around and just shout random things. We just get along so well, we keep each other up and positive. That’s what helps our games.” Miller is currently slashing a .473 batting average, .474 on-base percentage and .677 slugging percentage for a fourth-best batting average in the conference. Oftentimes when a team is performing much better than anticipated, onlookers wait for there to be one game that shows a team’s true colors. The Blue Dragons know for certain what their team-defining game was. “When we split with Butler Community College in El Dorado, I think that got us going. It opened every-
body’s eyes that we can play,” Rose said. The Blue Dragons split their first series of the season with Butler, a softball powerhouse Butler that rarely loses a conference game, handing the Grizzlies their first loss of the season in game one, 6-5. Game two ended 8-0 to the Grizzlies in five innings. Despite losing one of the games, Wertz and Miller agree with their coach that the first game of that series proved that the Blue Dragons would be a threat during the season. “When we beat Butler one game, that was when we were thinking, ‘Wow, we can do it,’ and it put us in the right mentality to refuse to lose,” Miller said. Wertz agreed. “The first Butler game we definitely proved ourselves,” Wertz said. “It showed everybody that we’re here to play and that we’re here to stay.” Now as the Blue Dragons face the rest of their season, Pitching Coach Ray Aguirre has one thing for his players to remember. “Everybody’s seen us now, so we’ll have an ‘X’ on our back for the rest of the season,” Aguirre said. “We just gotta keep going, and playing like we have been.”
