In sickness and in health In their 59 years of marriage, Bloomington residents Shirley and Wendell St. John have stuck together through high school, World War II and a stroke, all along growing in love. Cody Thompson comthomp@indiana.iu.edu | @CodyMichael3
Shirley St. John gazed fondly at her husband of 59 years as he spoke of their life — the story of how they met as teenagers, survived through war and traveled the world. Her eyes rarely left him as he detailed their adventures together. Shirley and Wendell St. John, both 84, met their freshman year of high school in the science club. They attended their junior and senior proms together, went to church together and have remained together since then. “My basic thinking is holistic,” Wendell said. “I would say that I simply love Shirley, and then I would say that I love everything about her.” Shirley lives in the Meadowood Retirement Community in Bloomington.
On May 29, 2015, she had a stroke and was hospitalized for three weeks. Since then, she has been recovering well, aside from the paralysis of the left side of her body. Wendell visits his wife every day, most times using the app Uber to do so, he said. As Wendell spoke about their love, Shirley was mostly quiet, watching her husband. Occasionally, she added her thoughts to the story. “He’s wonderfully creative,” she said. “He always comes up with something just a little bit different.” The couple married Oct. 6, 1956. Wendell served in the military from 1953 through 1956 during the Korean War. He was sent to Heidelberg, Germany, to the American military headquarters in Europe and worked SEE ST. JOHN, PAGE 5

IU falls to Michigan, 88-69 Michael Hughes michhugh@indiana.edu @MichaelHughes94
EAST LANSING, Mich. — After what might have been the biggest win of the season, the wheels seemed to fall off all at once. Senior guard Yogi Ferrell looked exasperated. Junior forward Troy Williams didn’t score
a single point. In the final minute, IU strength and conditioning coach Lyonel Anderson snapped his clipboard in half. After trailing by just one point at halftime, IU lost 88-69 to a Michigan State team led by senior guard Denzel Valentine, who had 30 points and 13 assists. “The disappointing part for us is obviously we did a very good
job in the first half, but we did not continue that by playing the personal as much as we needed to,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “They were just too comfortable.” The Hoosiers started slow, not finding an offensive rhythm before the first media timeout. They were saved by junior SEE HOOSIERS, PAGE 5

EAST LANSING, Mich. — Denzel Valentine didn’t have the chance to make a game-winning shot at the buzzer like he did exactly a year ago on Valentine’s Day.
That’s because this time, his team led by double digits for most of the second half. Instead of being a hero in the final seconds, Valentine dominated from beginning to end, scoring 30 points and dishing out 13 assists in No. 8 Michigan State’s 88-69 defeat of IU in East Lansing, Michigan.
“We let him play to his strengths,” IU Coach Tom Crean said. “You have to put more pressure on him and make him more uncomfortable, and we didn’t do that as much as we need to obviously.”

Cardinal Stage performs ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’ By Maia Rabenold mrabenol@indiana.edu | @maialyra
Audience members willingly checked themselves into a 1960s mental hospital Friday evening. They entered through a gated doorway into a set complete with tile floors, barred and locked windows and an overlooking glassed-in nurses station. For the next several hours, they experienced Dale Wasserman’s stage adaptation of Ken Kesey’s
novel “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” put on by the Cardinal Stage Company. “From the moment they walk through the door, they’re locked in here with us,” said IU senior Ian McCabe, who plays Billy Bibbitt. “They get to be a part of this.” McCabe’s character is one of the acutes, the group of inpatients who have a chance of being cured of their conditions. The story focuses on the acutes, led by Randall McMurphy, in their struggle against the system, embodied by Nurse Ratched.
Billy Bibbitt, along with the other acutes, often gets caught between the forces of McMurphy and Ratched, McCabe said. While this tension creates many heavy, sad moments in the play, he said there are also some points of hope. “It’s this gang of misfit toys, these guys who didn’t fit in for one reason or another and didn’t work in society,” McCabe said. “They’re brought together by this one person to be a team and to have their moment in time. At the beginning of the story, you see them and you think these
people could never have a cohesive moment of success and triumph, and then you get to see that more than once in the play. These people surpass and surmount their troubles.” The characters are developed more in the play than in the book, McCabe said. The side characters come to life, and more of their humanity is shown in the stage adaptation. The book, which is more symbolic of anti-establishment thinking, is made more linear and easy to

Gamers unite for LAN party By Hannah Rea hanrea@indiana.edu | @rea_hannahj
Large screens lined the walls of the Frangipani Room of the Indiana Memorial Union, where an Oculus Rift sat in one corner and a Nintendo Wii in the other. Students wandered in with laptops and set up along tables in the center of the room Saturday. Soon the air was full of cheers and rage quits, when players became so frustrated they had to stop playing. The first local area network (LAN) party was proposed and organized by Alicia Hosey, events and marketing coordinator of University Information Technology Services. It was intended to bring popularity to eSports and campus gaming clubs, Hosey said. “These clubs exist, and people don’t know they exist,” Hosey said. “This event was kind of a marriage of things I’m interested in.” With a small budget and
high expectations, Hosey did the best she could to use free sources of advertisement in order to save money for the event itself. She wrote an article for the UITS newsletter, the Monitor, and focused on word-of-mouth advertising to spread the news. Hosey also reached out to gaming club presidents, who told their members about the event. Alan Rozenblit, a junior studying computer science and the president of IU’s Starcraft Club, said this was how he found out. “Gaming is a niche community, but has a very passionate following,” he said. “I’m pretty pleased with how things have been going.” Rozenblit started the process of forming the club in 2015, though it was not officially recognized by the University until the beginning of this year. “As a kid, I was always a fan of real-time strategy games,” Rozenblit said. He said “Starcraft” is
not as popular as it once was, now overshadowed by games such as “League of Legends” and “Heroes of the Storm.” These multiplayer online battle arenas are becoming the more popular option because they allow more casual gaming for a wider, less dedicated audience, Rozenblit said. “‘Starcraft’ is very competitive and has a high skill barrier of entry,” Rozenblit said. “Even members of the League of Legends Club say ‘Starcraft’ is the hardest game to play.” The LAN party allowed clubs and club members to meet in person, as most of the interaction they have is online. “We don’t have a lot of opportunity to get together,” Rozenblit said. “We’re trying to cooperate with other clubs. The best is yet to come.” Events like this are a good way to build community between gamers on campus.
“[They] get the word out there that IU is taking this seriously,” Rozenblit said. Jonathan Hosey, a freshman studying computer science, works with UITS. He said this event was made in part because UITS wanted a gaming event in the spring to match the annual LAN War in the fall. He said the IU administration should become more involved to spread the word about gaming clubs. “Here on campus, gaming has kind of struggled,” Jonathan Hosey said. “Definitely, school-sponsored events will get information of clubs out there.” Alicia Hosey said she plans to continue having these events, which are free and open to anyone — from casual observer to dedicated gamer — who wants to attend. “My end goal is to have a really, really big gaming event,” Alicia Hosey said. “Student events are really where my heart is.”
New sorority introduces first class By Austin Faulds afaulds@indiana.edu | @a_faulds9615
The Omega Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., the newest sorority chapter at IU, introduced themselves to the student body Friday with a meetand-greet event at Forest Quadrangle. OPBSI joined the MultiCultural Greek Council this semester, the first time it had ever been on campus. While primarily known as a Latina-oriented sorority, chapter treasurer Deisy Lopez said the chapter is inclusive of all races. “Hopefully, we can create more inclusiveness for diversity on campus,” she said. At the event, which was open to the public, sisters and attendees listened to music, danced, played a variety of board games and ate free food. Attendees were given the chance to mingle with sisters of the chapter, as well as learn about the ideals and goals of their sorority. “This is a chance to come make up with old friends, as
well as make new friends,” chapter president Anay Mayorga said. Similar to other MCGC chapters on campus, OPBSI is rooted in activism, Lopez said. The chapter has only a modest-sized ensemble of members with a total of six sisters. Despite the small size of the chapter, sisterhood chair Mariana Cervantes said each of the six are determined to actively promote their cause for women. The progressive ethics of the chapter have attracted sisters to join, Cervantes said. She said this emphasis on activism personally captured her interest. “It’s a very diverse organization that challenged me to be myself,” Cervantes said. Since OPBSI is new to the greek community, Mayorga said the chapter will be spending most of the semester getting its name out to other chapters. “Our main focus for this semester is to just show our face and let people know we’re here,” she said.

Sisters of the newly established Omega Phi Beta sorority congregate at Forest on Friday. The sorority was host to an open invite party to celebrate their formation.
However, she said she will also be using this semester to bring more awareness to violence against women. In order to do this, she said she will be putting together fundraisers and events throughout the semester. In particular, Mayorga said she would like to put together “women empowerment” events, bringing in professors and advisers to discuss difficulties of females and minorities and how to overcome them. Cervantes also said she hopes to put together a public panel discussion on the subject of violence against
women. She said she hopes such a discussion can spark further ones among all genders and races on campus. OPBSI has a motto: “A Beta woman is a better woman; not better than all women, just better than who she was before.” Cervantes said the chapter delivers this motto concretely by providing a sense of community among its members. By being inclusive, it is easier for sisters to feel welcomed, regardless of race or gender. “We emphasize helping each other and making sure everyone’s hopes and dreams come true,” Mayorga said.
One active case of tuberculosis confirmed at IUPUI From IDS Reports
About 390 students, faculty and staff have been recommended for tuberculosis testing by the Marion County Public Health Department after one active case of the disease was reported in an IU-Purdue University Indianapolis student. The Marion County Public Health Department’s TB Control program along with IUPUI identified a group of people who were determined to be in the closest contact with the infected person “out of an abundance of caution,” Curt Brantingham of the Marion County Public Health Department
said in an email. These people were notified of their possible exposure via a letter from the University. IU spokesperson Mark Land said the Marion County Public Health Department is taking the lead on the case. The department offered two clinics on the IUPUI campus this week for people in the group who may have been at risk to exposure to the TB germ. Free testing is also available at one of the Marion County Public Health Department’s district health offices or at the IUPUI campus health center, Brantingham said in the email.
He said testing could also be sought through a personal health care provider. Brantingham confirmed that no other active cases of TB have been confirmed as a result of the initial case. TB is an airborne virus that can be spread from person to person. However, Brantingham said in the email the disease is difficult to transmit. It cannot be spread on surfaces such as handrails, desktops surfaces or athletic equipment. Symptoms of TB include a sick or weak feeling, weight loss, fever, night sweats, chest pain and even the coughing up of blood. “If a person experiences
any of these symptoms, they should be evaluated by a health care provider immediately,” Brantingham said in the email. Skin tests are the most common ways to test for TB, Brantingham said. The test only identifies if the TB germ is present and not if there is an active case of TB. The presence of the germ does not mean a person is infectious. A chest X-ray and further medical evaluation can be performed in order to determine if someone with the TB germ has the active TB disease. Carley Lanich
After 25 years, Doug Bauder and Marty Siegel have had a lot of anniversaries. “It’s hard to keep them all straight,” Siegel said. “But that’s what happens in a gay relationship.” Siegel, 68, is an informatics professor. Bauder, 66 and a former pastor, is Doug the director Bauder of the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Student Support Services office. S i e g e l Marty SIegel is Jewish. He grew up in Chicago and went to a Big Ten school. Bauder is a Protestant from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, who went to a small Christian college. They both had married women and had children. When they met through a gay phone service in the early 1990s, Bauder had been divorced from his wife for about a decade. Siegel was separated from his wife after coming out to her a year before. They developed a relationship over the phone — “like having a pen pal” — before meeting about six months later. “Was it love at first sight?” Bauder asks. “I don’t know. It was strong ‘like’ at first sight.” On their first weekend together, Siegel spent some time counseling his college-bound son over the phone. “I really loved the way he used his skills and his insights to care for his son,” Bauder said. Siegel was less sure. “I think he fell harder for me than I fell for him,” he said. He’d only been out of the closet for a year and was hesitant to jump into another long relationship. Siegel was working at a startup in Minnesota. Bauder was a pastor and hospital chaplain in the Madison, Wisconsin, area. When Siegel joined IU’s School of Education in 1991, he drove from Indiana to Wisconsin every other Friday for a year. He said he wouldn’t make this drive again. Bauder moved down to Bloomington in 1993, around Valentine’s Day. He remembers packing his apartment with the TV on as Maya Angelou read “On the Pulse of the Morning” at President Clinton’s first inauguration. As they started living together, a friend of theirs blessed their relationship in an informal ceremony. That was enough. They lived in a house near campus. Bauder became the director of the new GLBT office, and Siegel moved to the School of Informatics. At the time, Siegel saw marriage as an institution for straight people and
“We’ve been together a long time, so Valentine’s doesn’t take on that gooey romance that it did when you’re 25 years old.” Marty Siegel, informatics professor
didn’t feel entitled to it. “A gay person is no different from anybody else in terms of being influenced by society,” Siegel said. Both were grateful for their earlier marriages. “We had been married,” Bauder said. “We had done that.” The day same-sex marriage was legalized in Indiana in 2014, Bauder officiated ceremonies at the Monroe County Courthouse. He said people would ask him, “When are you and Marty going to come down and do this?” When people asked Siegel, he would say, “Well, Doug hasn’t asked me yet.” “We began to think, if this is gonna happen,” Bauder said, “it’s got to be OK everywhere in the nation.” So on the day of the Obergefell v. Hodges decision last June, Bauder decided, “I want to be a part of this.” Bauder got down on one knee in Siegel’s bookcase-lined home office and asked, “Will you marry me?” Because of Bauder’s lower back pain, Siegel helped him stand up. “Well, I want to think about it,” Siegel answered. They were married legally Nov. 25. They will have a ceremony in June with a pastor and a rabbi, their four children and their four siblings. For their grandchildren, it will end with “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” from “Toy Story.” The ceremony will take place in their home in south Bloomington, where a New Yorker magazine cover with a rainbow White House from June hangs on the wall, across the living room from the Steinway piano Siegel won in his divorce. “In some ways, nothing’s really changed,” Marty said. “Except we now have more forms to fill out.” This Valentine’s Day, their first as a legally married couple, Bauder and Siegel made plans to watch “Downton Abbey.” “We’ve been together a long time, so Valentine’s doesn’t take on that gooey romance that it did when you’re 25 years old,” Siegel said. Not much has changed in what they do, but there is a difference. “When you’re not married, the thought is, ‘Well, do you want to stay together another year? Should we keep this going?’” Siegel said. “And now it’s, ‘This is it. This is a commitment.’” While their marriage is new, Valentine’s Day has always been in their lives. “It’s not just a day for straight couples,” Bauder says. “Just like marriage.”

Local DJ Addison Lodgers gives a thumbs-up to the crowd during the Chocolate Prom event Saturday night at Rhino Music Club.
Chocolate Prom draws wide age range of dancers By Anne Halliwell ahalliwe@indiana.edu @Anne_Halliwell
Karen McQueen, 9, spent Saturday night bouncing between the dance floor, the treat table and her mother at the Rhino’s All Ages Music Club. “They’re on a date,” she said while gesturing to two of her fourth-grade school friends bobbing on the dance floor. “I keep ruining it.” Rhino’s has held the Chocolate Prom as part of LIFEDesigns’ fundraising Week of Chocolate for about 10 years, director Brad Wilhelm said. Normally, the club holds events for 13- to 18-yearolds, but Chocolate Prom attracts a far wider age range, Wilhelm said. “It’s the one night a year where we open it up to everyone,” he said. “There’s smaller kids and parents, there’s college students out there, grandparents. They’re filling up on chocolate and having a good time.” Karen is a student at the Project School across the street from Rhino’s All Ages Music Club. Her mother, Bloomington resident Vicky McQueen, said Karen heard about the prom at school and wanted to give it a go. “Some of my friends were here, and I love chocolate,” Karen said. But Vicky, 57, hadn’t expected her daughter’s first dance to cater to a younger age range. “When we got here, I said, ‘Don’t be surprised if there’s no one here your age,’” Vicky said. But when they arrived, the two were greeted with a dramatic age range. There were groups of grade-schoolers dancing on the stage with the DJ and older teens standing in the photo booths. Parents and guardians lining the walls and couches. Vicky said the music — a
mix of ’70s and ’80s hits like Michael Jackson’s “Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough” and music from more modern singers like Taylor Swift — reminded her of the dances she attended in high school. From the $10 to $15 admission fees and the $1 entry for the Prom King and Queen drawings, Wilhelm said the prom would bring in $2,000 to $2,500 toward paying the Youth Center staff and operating costs for the club. “It’s probably one of our better fundraisers, and it’s fun,” he said. “Little kids and bigger kids normally don’t mingle out there, so it’s good to see.” Several of the younger children and tweens were the younger siblings of teens who work and learn at Rhino’s Youth Center, Wilhelm said. Because the nonprofit has been running for 24 years, many of the early “Rhino’s Kids” have had children of their own, he said. Rhino’s Youth Center helps teenagers create media projects such as radio shows, magazines, videos and art projects during the school week. Over the weekend, the teens run free all-ages shows in the club, Wilhelm said. The club rules, painted in white on a wall near the stage, include standards such as “no violent dancing/ physically risky behavior,” but also adages like “sing along if so moved,” “laugh at yourself,” and “love your favorite band, but know they will never be as good as Cheap Trick.” In a college town such as Bloomington, there aren’t many outlets for fun that don’t involve “risky behaviors,” Wilhelm said. “A kid can feel really lost because there’s not a lot to do if you’re not a college student,” Wilhelm said. “Being able to provide a place that is safe, but also drug-and-alcohol free, is important.”

While snow swirled outside the windows of the Islamic Center in Bloomington, high schoolers, fraternity brothers, families, professors and members of various volunteer groups from throughout the city prepared to help Bloomington residents stay warm.

Some couples enjoy a nice dinner on Valentine’s Day. Some couples go to the movies. A lot of couples, apparently, go shopping for sex toys. Amid the aisles of flavored condoms, vibrating thongs and penis-shaped baking dishes, the employees of Cirilla’s adult entertainment store stood stressed and exhausted as they approached the end of their busiest season. “We do about four times the normal business during the week of Valentine’s Day,” said Megan Hoehn, the Bloomington branch’s store manager. In the past few days alone, she said they had sold hundreds of vibrators and at least 100 pieces of lingerie. “Crotchless panties have
been big this year,” employee Joanna Coke said. “I feel like I spent an entire morning hanging up panties.” Many people assume working in a sex store would mean dealing with creepy or gross guys, Hoehn said. But that’s a misconception. Hoehn said she sees every type of person in her store, from college freshmen basking in the freedoms of a parentless house to seasoned 70-year-olds keeping the romance alive. Everybody has sex, Coke and Hoehn said. Their job is to help people do it better and safer. “Sex is a basic function of human existence,” Hoehn said. “We’re all here because somebody had sex. If you’re not having it, you’re thinking about having it.” This is Hoehn’s 10th
houses warm.” The teenage leaders of the weatherization teams were armed with caulking guns, outlet sealers, water pipe insulation, window insulation and faucet aerators. They filled in cracks around vents and covered windows with plastic. Simple tasks like these can save an average of 10 to 20 percent of a household’s energy bill, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration. “I’m not a professional or anything, but I learned how to do these tasks last year, and I was surprised at how easy it was,” Koffman said. In addition to ICEY and Volunteers for Change, the groups included the Bloomington High School South
Habitat for Humanity team, a youth group from Congregation Beth Shalom and members of IU’s Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity. “It’s good to have on Valentine’s Day because I think it’s a loving thing to do, to come together and work together as a community,” said Anne McLaughlin, a Volunteers for Change member who organized the event. “It’s a loving thing to do for our neighbors and a loving thing to do for our Earth.” It’s also appropriate, McLaughlin said, that they were working in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who once said anybody can serve. “You only need a heart full of grace and a soul generated by love,” she said.
Students compete in spelling bee By Cody Thompson comthomp@indiana.iu.edu @CodyMichael3
Anxious spellers approached a panel of judges, each student too tall or too short for the microphone stand. Many inscribed letters on their palms with their fingertips as they spelled out loud. Their voices quivered as they stood in front of the judges. The IU Media School and IU School of Education sponsored the Scripps Regional Spelling Bee on Saturday at the Monroe County Public Library. The winner of the competition, seventh-grade Tara Ganguly of Tri-North Middle School, will be going to the national competition in Washington, D.C. in May. The regional bee consisted of elementary and middle school students from Brown, Monroe, Morgan and Owen counties. The bee lasted 20 rounds. Director of the bee Teresa White said this bee was longer than any she had ever been to before. She said it was a testament to how well-prepared the

and it makes a big difference,” said Tamar Moss, a high school junior and member of the Interfaith Community of Environmentalist Youth. “Especially when it’s on a large scale like this, it saves a lot of energy.” Forty-three homeowners requested help from the volunteer teams. Some of the requests came from the elderly, some with disabilities and others from people who were simply curious about how they can save more energy. “A lot of the people who have been reaching out to us are people who really, really need it,” Ashley Koffman, a member of Volunteers for Change, said. “They’re so cold, and they don’t know what to do to keep their
Valentine’s Day working in the feather- and glitter-filled Cirilla’s. “There are so many cute moments every day,” Hoehn said. “Guys will pull little laminated cards out of their wallet that says their girlfriend’s shoe size, dress size, bra size. It’s adorable.” As the afternoon wore away, couples preparing for Valentine’s night considered the gizmos and gadgets. “Just told your mom we’re here,” one man joked to his girlfriend, who gasped and let a toy clatter to the floor. Though the employees are excited for the rush to be over, they’re happy to have helped couples enjoy the holiday. “There’s a taboo against talking about it, but there shouldn’t be,” Coke said. “Sex is about the connectedness between people.”
students were. There were a total of 27 spellers at the bee. Each one was a champion at his or her respective school. Ganguly was last year’s runner-up in the same competition. She was finally able to claim the victory when she correctly spelled the championship word, “nautical,” after 20 rounds of competition. As the pronouncer gave her the final word, Ganguly smiled as she easily spelled it. “I was kinda stressed out and worried,” Ganguly said after the competition. “I wanted to do well.” Ganguly said she studied for a month for this competition. Contestants were eliminated one by one until there were only four spellers remaining. Then the judges and announcer conceded that moving ahead to more difficult words would be necessary. The regional bee used to be sponsored by local newspapers, but due to print media’s decline in funding, Scripps has sought universities to sponsor

It becomes the regional sponsor’s job to organize the bee and to raise money for prizes which include airfare, lodging and meals for the trip to nationals for the victor and one family member of his or her choosing, White said. Along with the trip to the national capital, the winner received a copy of Merriam-Webster’s Third New International Dictionary, a 2016 United States Mint Proof Set and other
prizes. Ganguly said she is excited for Washington, D.C. and her hardest word to spell was “vengeance.” Judges at the bee included IU Media School faculty Gena Asher, Tom French and Anne Kibbler. The pronouncer for the regional competition was Herald-Times retiree Allan Murphy. The competition was recorded by Community Access Television Services and will air soon.

We all need somebody to cuddle with

For those of us who remained lonely this Valentine’s Day, there might still be hope. When you need a shoulder to cry on, cuddle parties have allowed strangers to snuggle with “professional snugglers.” Similarly, since the app Spoonr launched in

September, almost half a million Americans have downloaded the app to find nearby folk who want to cuddle. The fact that we need such professional help might say something about society, but at least a good cuddle is available to those in need.
WHO’S SANE
EYLSE’S THOUGHTS
Surviving solitary confinement
Zika in the United States ELYSE JOHNSON is a sophomore in community health and human sexuality.
HUSSAIN ATHER is a junior in physics and philosophy.
In our nation of second chances, the punishment should fit the crime. The overuse of solitary confinement in prisons punishes criminals too severely for their good. “Research suggests that solitary confinement has the potential to lead to devastating, lasting psychological consequences,” President Obama wrote in the Washington Post. Obama recommends banning solitary confinement for juveniles as a response to low-level infractions. In light of this push to reform the prison system, it’s clear we need better mental health treatment for prisoners in solitary confinement. But we also need to understand how the prisoners’ unique struggles in order to address these issues. Susie Nelson, editorial intern at Nautilus, writes, “Confinement-induced stress can shrink parts of the brain, including the hippocampus, which is responsible for memory, spatial orientation and control of emotions.” In addition, 55 percent of male and 73 percent of female prisoners suffer from mental illness, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Prisoners who undergo such punishment also often have trouble functioning in society when they are released. Those behind bars are isolated from the world. Everything about them, including their family, friends, clothes, hobbies and lifestyle, is gone from them. Lack of access to physical comfort, essential food and other necessities takes its toll on prisoners. But solitary confinement can be something else. When you aren’t distracted by reality, you enter the world of abstraction. And the isolated mind is a breeding ground for creativity. Hussain Al-Shahristani, Iraq’s minister of higher education and scientific research, survived a decade in the Abu Ghraib prison by solving mathematical problems. After serving three years in solitary confinement, Johnny Perez of the Urban Justice Center recounted, “In a sense, you are confined, and in other senses, you’re free.” He kept a diary in which he reflected upon historical quotes and the philosophy of Marcus Aurelius. In this sense, the way those in solitary confinement exercise their imagination allows them to understand the world better. As prisoners reflect on the past, they create worlds in which they can reflect on the reality. They can imagine narratives of their past by asking questions such as, “What if I had done this instead?” or “What if things were different?” This allows prisoners to develop resilience and autonomy for dealing with reality. While this imagination is necessary, prisoners must deliberately control these thoughts or they’ll succumb to anxiety, intrusive thoughts and unhealthy fixation on the past. Hip hop group N.W.A. understood how to shape the soul in prison. On the subject of living in correctional facilities, Dr. Dre wrote, “I get straight, meditate like a Buddhist.” Though he’s not a real doctor, Dre offers insight psychiatrists and professionals need to understand to help prisoners fight their struggles. Our mental health treatment for prisoners should incorporate these methods of dealing with struggles of the mind. These changes will help criminals address their psychological issues and readjust to society. It will, in turn, fight crime rate more effectively and make everyone safer. sather@indiana.edu @SHussainAther

EDITORIAL BOARD
A higher price for drugs WE SAY: Overdoses are tragic, but not murder Medical examiners, law officials and users alike have labeled it as the “dropdead” drug epidemic. Daniel Rusyniak, director of IU Health’s Indiana Poison Center, told WISHTV the synthetic drug fentanyl is being laced with heroin and sold to unknowing clients. Those clients often die instantaneously with the needle still in their arm. This drug is 50 times stronger than heroin. The American Institute of Toxicology reported a 9-percent nationwide increase in toxicology tests that have come back positive for both heroin and non-prescribed fentanyl. Indiana has seen an increase in the same tests of more than 12 percent throughout the year. States such as New Hampshire and Ohio are
seeing an even steeper intake of the drug. In New Hampshire, Attorney General Joseph Foster is pushing for all fatal overdose cases to be treated as second-degree murder by the police. Foster’s proposal would cost New Hampshire $115,000 to put into action. At the Editorial Board, we feel this is a gross oversight in how the drug epidemic is spreading. It completely neglects users and dealers of the treatment they need. Putting people in jail who are prone to addiction will not stop the rampant use of deadly drugs. Last June, 27-year-old Joseph Cahill died of an overdose in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, from drugs dealt by Amanda Burgess, 27. “I jus watch sum one die
rite in front of me,” Burgess texted to her mother soon after she witnessed Cahill’s death. Her mother drove Burgess to the police station soon after. One might think Cahill’s family would want Burgess to be treated as a murderer, but this was not the case. Rather, they were upset that Burgess had simply watched him die, instead of calling for medical help. If Burgess had contacted medics, Cahill might still be alive. Narcan, the drug that can reverse the effects of opiate overdoses, has to be immediately administered after an overdose. Since the rise of distribution, the cost for a kit is about $42. Defense attorney Jim Moir told The Guardian, “I don’t think any drug dealer wants to kill a customer. That’s a bad business plan.”
The only way to stop the epidemic is through preventative measures such as long-term medical treatment. Before he passed, Cahill was struggling with drug addiction, but had been clean for five months. Once he got a job, he couldn’t receive free benefits like intensive outpatient programming. For this reason, it’s unfair to prosecute those with addictions so severely. Not only is there a need to increase the aid that individuals without money can receive, it is essential those receiving the care are able to continue it for an extended period of time. There is a high demand to keep rehab centers open so people who are susceptible to fall into this pattern of addiction can get help for it.
RILED UP
Clinton doesn’t have a claim on female voters At Hillary Clinton’s New Hampshire campaign event, former secretary of state Madeleine Albright said, “There is a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other,” and I completely agree with her. But I don’t pick my presidential candidates based on whom I most want to help. I vote for the candidate who I think will take this country in a direction I agree with, who will help those who actually need it. On that front, I disagree with Albright. Clinton has long been an important political figure in this country. Despite having trouble gaining a female support base for her campaign, she has done a lot for women in politics. She’s the closest any woman has come to being president. And yet, Clinton still has trouble capturing the vote that Albright seems to think should be inherent. In New Hampshire, Bernie Sand-
ers received 54 percent of the female vote. Politico described Clinton as having a “woman problem.” This problem seems to be baffling to Clinton as well, given her style of pandering to women voters. During the first Democratic debate, she answered the question of how her administration would differ from Obama’s with what basically amounted to, “I’m a girl.” That’s not enough for me. Being female is a large part of my identity, but it’s not the only thing I am. There is more to Clinton than just being a woman, and her gender is the least important thing about her to consider when picking a presidential nominee. Having a female president would break a glass ceiling that desperately needs to be broken. However, supporting candidates based solely on gender devalues the progress women have already made in this country.
Feminist icons of previous generations must have little faith in the reasoning skills of women under 35. Gloria Stienem said young feminists support Bernie Sanders because “that’s where the boys are,” on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher.” Talk about devaluing the progress of the women’s movement. The idea that women choose their involvement in politics based on where they are most likely to find a husband is incredibly insulting, and I’m shocked the quote came from such a respected woman and feminist in the media industry. The regression of my identity to just a female wife-to-be is completely against what I believe feminism represents. I’m disheartened to find this is what feminists from other generations think about us. But it doesn’t make me ashamed of my generation, as much as it makes me question theirs.
JORDAN RILEY is a senior in comparative literature.
Steinham has since apologized on Facebook for her statement and acknowledged “young women are activist and feminist in greater numbers than ever before.“ Older feminists are understandably enticed by how close Clinton is to the highest office in the land, but younger feminists grew up in a different world, where we don’t have to compromise political beliefs. That’s why young feminists also don’t support Carly Fiorina, or Sarah Palin. I support the feminist movement and progress on women’s issues, but I do not support candidates who don’t stand with my political beliefs. jordrile@indiana.edu

Around this time last year, the Ebola epidemic had the United States in a panic. That threat has passed, but there’s a new virus scaring the country: the Zika virus. You might have heard frightening stories about the potentials of Zika, including microcephaly in babies infected during the pregnancy. The defect causes an abnormally small head and incomplete brain development. The virus can also cause symptoms like fever, rash, joint pain, muscle aches, red eyes and headaches. A possible link is being investigated between Zika and Guillain-Barré syndrome, a potentially deadly nervous system disorder that causes paralysis and muscle weakness, according to the Center for Disease Control. These outcomes became even more alarming when a case of Zika in Indiana was announced last week. However, panicking is not the way to handle virus outbreaks. Knowing the facts about the Zika virus can prevent you from contracting it. For example, it’s important to know the Zika virus is primarily transferred through mosquito bites. This means unless you are traveling to a region where mosquitos are passing the virus around — or an infected person brings the virus to your area while mosquitos are active — you should not have to worry about contracting it this way. There has yet to be a case of Zika in the U.S. that has been passed through mosquito bites. All of the cases reported in the country so far have been contracted in other areas and then brought to the U.S. through travel. The CDC calls these “imported” cases. If you’re at risk for contracting Zika through mosquito bites, it’s essential you prevent getting bitten by using bug spray and wearing protective clothing. Also, it’s important to note that it may be possible for the illness to be passed from person to person through sexual contact. Debby Herbenick, sex researcher and human sexuality professor at IU, wrote a letter to the editor to the Indiana Daily Student last week to talk about just that. She stressed the importance of preventing mosquito bites if you are planning to travel to a tropical destination that has a Zika outbreak during spring break. While you should be wearing a condom with your spring break hookups anyway, condoms can also protect against Zika. CDC officials recommend wearing a condom during any sexual act with someone who could be carrying the virus, perhaps for up to six months after being in an area where Zika is present. Herbenick also recommends condoms even if there is another birth control method in place such as the pill or an intrauterine device. This is to prevent not just the pregnancy outcomes, but the actual symptoms of the illness as well. However, it’s rare that anyone is hospitalized for the symptoms, and even rarer that someone dies from Zika. While the Zika outbreak is cause for concern, it is not nearly as threatening as it seems. As long as you stay aware of your potential for exposure and take the right precautions when that potential is high, then you should be safe from contracting Zika. elyjohns@indiana.edu @ElyseJWrites

Shirley St. John, right, and Wendell St. John, both 84, were married Oct. 6, 1956.
» ST. JOHN
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 in a message center, during which Shirley remained at the University of Illinois. When Wendell came back from the military, the couple got married. They wanted to “retire young,” he said. To them, this meant not waiting to see the world until after retirement, but doing so at a younger age. Soon after marriage, they purchased first-class tickets for a boat to Europe, where they lived for a year before Shirley’s mother became sick and she was forced to return home. After reuniting, Wendell and Shirley purchased a house in suburban Chicago, he said. Segregation of schools was a major social issue of the time, and the St. Johns decided the best way to implement integration was to send their three children, who are white, to predominantly black schools, Wendell said. Shirley said their love was logic, not romance. “We’ve had such a warped view of love through movies and cheap novels and other things, and from my perspective love is much more about, ‘Is he interesting? Does he think about the things that I think are important?’” Shirley said. “I was not very sweet and
sticky.” Wendell echoed his wife’s comment that their love story was not cliché. “You could have asked us 60 years ago and we would give the same answer — we’re not madly in love, but we know that we’re going to grow in love,” Wendell said. Wendell and Shirley lived in Japan for 13 years. Eventually, the couple realized they needed to retire. At that time, all three of their children were working in Bloomington, so that’s where the St. Johns decided to stay. “We have just had a marvelous life living in these various places and living in the environment and with other people in those countries,” Wendell said. The St. Johns’ daughterin-law and granddaughter delivered them cake for Valentine’s Day, which they celebrated Friday instead of Sunday. Wendell has only missed five days with his wife in the past six months and only because of the danger of snow, he said. He recalled his favorite part about being married to Shirley. “I think it’s the fact that she’s such a person of integrity and whether it’s the clothing she wears, the way she wears her hair — the whole thing is always so right on,” he said.
forward Collin Hartman and freshman forward OG Anunoby coming off the bench. Those two started a bench effort that outscored their Spartan counterparts 14-0 in the first half. Eight different players scored in the first half with senior forward Max Bielfeldt leading the way with 10 points. Sunday was the first time Bielfeldt started since the Maui Invitational in November, and he led the Hoosiers with 15 points. But IU’s bench couldn’t keep the game close in the second half. Offensively, the Hoosiers collapsed. It wasn’t anything Michigan State was doing, sophomore guard Robert Johnson said. The Spartans were playing the same box defense, but the ball stopped

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 With just under 14 minutes left in the second half, the senior guard stepped back and knocked down his fourth 3-pointer of the game. It capped a 16-2 run that gave the Spartans a 12-point lead, their largest of the game to that point. Tom Crean wanted a timeout. But before going to his team’s bench, Valentine, with a smile on his face, jogged to the other side of the court and highfived two former Michigan State football players in attendance. The rest of the game was that kind of celebration for

moving. Perhaps the player who suffered most from the lack of ball movement was Ferrell. When the ball stopped moving it became easier for the Spartans to key in on him, Crean said. Ferrell finished 3-of10 from the field and 1-of-6 from behind the arc. “When he’s holding the ball and we make him dribble, it’s easy to key on him,” Hartman said. “When we get the ball moving and get him lost in the game, then he’s really hard to guard.” Crean has said Ferrell has been playing too many minutes. He said so after IU’s win at Michigan and again after the Iowa win. He said he needed to play freshman Harrison Niego more. But Niego only played one minute in the second half Sunday. Meanwhile, Ferrell’s
jump shot was consistently short, and he missed the front end of a 1-and-1 twice. But Crean said Ferrell wasn’t tired Sunday. He said Ferrell had a break in the first half after he picked up his second foul and that the senior guard is used to playing a lot of minutes. He isn’t in a slump — Crean said he doesn’t believe in slumps. “It’s not a real issue, and he’s not in one,” Crean said. “It’s a matter of taking what the defense is giving you when you have the ball in your hands a lot.” With six and a half minutes left and the game all but out of reach, Ferrell drove to the basket. He had his shot blocked off his leg and out of bounds and was knocked to the ground. He got up and slapped his hands in frustration. A minute later he would turn the ball over and be taken
out of the game. As soon as he walked past Crean to the bench, his frustration came out again. He wound up and slammed his right hand on the scorer’s table in a moment summarizing the Hoosiers second half collapse. This is not to say IU’s season is lost. The Hoosiers and the Hawkeyes are still the only two teams who control their destiny in terms of winning a Big Ten title. But the Hoosiers need to learn from Sunday for this to be possible, Bielfeldt said. “We’re coming up on March, and we learn some things every game,” Bielfeldt said. “We learn how we play certain ways and what teams expose and what we’re good at. As long as we keep adapting and keep getting better, that’s when we can really make the best possible version of ourself.”
him and the Michigan State Spartans. Valentine went 11-of19 from the floor, including 5-of-8 beyond the arc. When he wasn’t scoring, he was creating opportunities for his teammates. He was often leading the Spartans’ fast break. Although both teams finished with 11 turnovers, Michigan State converted those into 20 points, while IU had just nine points in transition. Crean said they let Valentine do pretty much whatever he wanted. “He can do a lot of different things because of his vision and because of his ability to play through traps,” Crean said. “But you have to wear him down,
and we just didn’t do a good enough job of that.” Michigan State didn’t need a ton of help outside of Valentine and senior forward Matt Costello. The two players combined for 52 points and 16 rebounds. With all the hype about how good of an offensive player Valentine is, Michigan State Coach Tom Izzo said he doesn’t think Valentine gets enough credit for his defense. Izzo said everything they’ve asked the senior guard to get better at, he’s improved upon — becoming a better shooter, becoming more disciplined and becoming a better defender. All of those he’s done,
and all were problems for IU on Sunday. “He can rebound and guard on one end, and he can pass and score on the other end,” Izzo said. “I don’t know anybody I’ve had that can do that as thoroughly as he does it.” Valentine kept his team in the game during the first half when IU led by as many as 10 points. Then, when the Spartans were on the other end of it, he took control. Despite trying three or four different defenders on Valentine, Crean didn’t have an answer. “If you can find a better player all around, on both ends of the court, that guy deserves it,” Izzo said.
because it’s a little dark and edgy.” Mike McGregor, a professor in the Media School who plays Aide Turkel, said the play closely follows the book, but the differences make it that much more
interesting. The play is a look into history as it portrays what mental institutions were like in the 1960s, McGregor said, but what makes it truly compelling is the talented cast that brings
it to life. “It’s funny, and it’s disturbing, and it’s heartbreaking within seconds,” McGregor said. “It’s not often you see a show that can pull those kind of emotions so quickly.”

FOUR IN A ROW IU wins fourth fou straight against Wisconsin By Taylor Lehman | trlehman@indiana.edu | @trlehman_IDS
67-57
L
ess than five minutes into Sunday afternoon’s matchup against Wisconsin, sophomore forward Amanda Cahill committed her second foul of the game, sending her to the bench and bringing in junior forward Lyndsey Leikem. Assembly Hall was quiet for the first time since January’s close games against Michigan and Michigan State. IU was outscored in the second quarter and faced a five-point deficit at halftime, 29-24. Playing a team that had beaten IU in their Big Ten opener, the Hoosiers appeared to be struggling with the Badgers yet again. IU failed to corrall an offensive rebound in the first half, as well as shooting just 14 percent in the second quarter after zero first-half offensive rebounds and a second quarter in which they made only 14 percent of their shots. IU came out of halftime with a different mentality, outscoring Wisconsin 17-8 in the third and cruising to its 13th consecutive win at home, 67-57. “It was a grind-it-out kind of Sunday for us,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “I wish we would have handled ourselves a little bit better, especially in that second quarter when they outscored us 13-7.” In Cahill’s absence, Moren was forced to rotate in players such as Leikem and freshman forward Kym Royster in the four and five spots of the lineup, something that normally does not occur until the second quarter. Both forwards played a combined 16 minutes in the first half, but only three in the second half, as Cahill — who has recorded eight double-doubles this season — solidified her position in the post and recorded 12 points and seven rebounds. “The good thing is that we’ve been in that situation before,” Moren said about Cahill’s foul trouble. “When teams play a zone, we’re much better when she is on SEE WISCONSIN, PAGE 10 NOBLE GUYON | IDS

COLUMN: Michigan State’s Valentine had an answer for each IU tactic Sunday EAST LANSING, Mich. — It’s complicated business trying to stop Denzel Valentine. There is no clear cut antidote to containing the Michigan State forward. Try to stay in front of him, he goes through you. Try to hold your ground, he goes around you. Play perfect defense, he drains a 3-pointer in your face. IU tried it all to stop Valentine in East Lansing, Michigan, on Sunday, but Valentine had an answer for each attempt. By the time he was hitting his final 3-point shot to end his day with 30 points, 13 assists and five rebounds, Valentine had officially squandered any hopes the Hoosiers had of pulling off a road upset in the Breslin Student Events Center. The star, vaulting himself back into National Player of the Year race, had IU’s number Sunday. The Hoosiers opened with sophomore guard Robert Johnson guarding Valentine and junior forward Troy Williams trying to hang with swingman Eron Harris. Valentine had a 25-pound
advantage on Johnson, yet still found ways to get around him all day. Johnson hung tough on Valentine, but couldn’t Denzel keep up. IU Coach Tom Valentine Crean said IU let him gain space and dribble to his right too much. Sometimes Valentine would beat Johnson inside. Other times, he would drive, draw pressure and release a floater alley-oop pass to a big man like Gavin Schilling or Matt Costello. Johnson had his moments, like when Valentine tried posting him up down low in the first half but Johnson violently rejected the star’s hook shot in his face. But for the most part, Johnson couldn’t stay in front of him. Then IU tried senior guard Yogi Ferrell, at six foot, on Valentine. Sure, Ferrell played hard and kept in front of Valentine better, but the size mismatch was too much. Valentine would stampede his way through Ferrell for contact buckets down low. IU tried double-teaming when

Valentine got the ball in the post, but he was such a good passer that he would quickly find the abandoned man. Then came the fan favorite matchup, freshman forward OG Anunoby. Of the three, Anunoby might have covered Valentine the best, but in short minutes. He had just enough strength to defend a post up, just enough length to make driving a little more difficult. Where Anunoby seemed to struggle was getting around all of the offball screens set to free up shooters. For all the talk of how good Valentine was in isolation, he may have been the most frightening Sunday when shooting from deep. Valentine made 5-of-8 shots from 3-point range.

FSA presents s e n a L c i s s speech event Cla on femininity By Erica Gibson ecgibson@indiana.edu @erica_clare05
A few minutes past midnight on Valentine’s Day, Megan Churchward stood under red and pink gel lights and read a list of thoughts she had about womanhood while walking home alone late at night. Churchward was one of 18 members of the Bloomington community who chose to deliver a speech as part of the “Personal Monologues” event Saturday at the Bishop. The event, which was sponsored by the IU Feminist Student Association, encouraged volunteers to speak about their bodies and femininity. “I resent the stigma of being a feminist,” Churchward said. “I resent the selfdoubt, the self-consciousness. But most of all, I resent that there is anything to resent about being a woman.” When Churchward stepped down from the stage, the night’s host, Carmen Vernon, handed her a chocolate vulva from a black and pink Planned Parenthood tote bag as a treat for speaking.
“‘Personal Monologues’ is an extension of Eve Ensler’s ‘The Vagina Monologues,’” Vernon said. “It’s about self-empowerment.” “The Vagina Monologues” and “Personal Monologues” were both part of the V-Day campaign, a movement started by Ensler to end violence against women through consciousness-raising events. As part of the V-Day campaign, all of the profits from the FSA’s production of “The Vagina Monologues” were donated to Middle Way House. Some volunteers at “Personal Monologues” improvised their speeches, while others referenced notes on their phone or read off of scribbled notes torn out of journals. The first nine performers were all scheduled to speak, while the rest spoke in the open mic portion of the event. Several young women and two men talked for almost three hours about menstrual cups, onenight-stands and physical disabilities. “Personal Monologues” SEE MONOLOGUES, PAGE 9

Actor-director Benson speaks at IU Cinema By TJ Jaeger tjaeger@indiana.edu | @tj_jaeger
Originally, director Jeremy Kagen said he did not choose actor Robby Benson for the 1981 film “The Chosen,” because he didn’t think Benson would be able to play a short-tempered character. When asked during the Q&A at the IU Cinema’s Jorgensen Guest Filmmaker Lecture Series about how they met, Benson said he took drastic measures to get the part. “It infuriated me to think somebody thought I couldn’t be infuriated,” Benson said. As a result, Benson went
to Kagan’s home, grabbed him by his chest, pushed him against a wall and asked if he was angry enough to play the role then. Kagan said he immediately offered Benson the role. Benson, a professor of practice in the IU Media School, was featured as part of the Jorgensen Guest Filmmaker Lecture Series on Friday. The event was monitored by Kagan, a fellow filmmaker who had a guest lecture of his own Thursday. While introducing the one-on-one interview between Benson and Kagan, IU Provost Lauren Robel described the event as an
» MONOLOGUES
opportunity to watch two outstanding artists engaged in conversation. Kagan said he had been looking forward to interviewing Benson, with whom he has only communicated with electronically through the years. “This was really special, because I haven’t gotten to speak with Robby since ‘The Chosen,’” he said. “That was about 35 years ago.” Throughout his multifaceted career, Benson has worked as an actor on both screen and stage, directed and produced television series and films, composed film soundtracks and received multiple RIAA Gold
Records. Robel said Benson has accomplished more than most artists are able to in a lifetime. One of Benson’s more recent works is his personal memoir, “I’m Not Dead Yet,” which reveals his struggle in going through four openheart surgeries over the course of his life. Kagan asked Benson several questions ranging from who mentored him to how his mortality has changed his outlook on life. Throughout Benson’s artistic career, he has also worked in academia. He has taught at multiple colleges, including New York University’s Tisch School of the
Arts, since the 1980s. In 2013, he accepted a position with IU’s telecommunications department. During the Q&A portion of the lecture, Benson was asked what made him want to move to Bloomington. Following his fourth open-heart surgery, Benson said, he wasn’t able to handle the stress of New York City anymore, and he said the embracing atmosphere IU’s faculty offered won him over. “If I could get on a mountaintop and scream, ‘IU,’ I’d do it,” he said. Jesse Pasternack, a sophomore, IU Cinema volunteer and writer for IDS Weekend, said the crowd for Benson’s
“I resent the stigma of being a feminist. I resent the self-doubt, the self-consciousness. But most of all, I resent that there is anything to resent about being a woman.”
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7 aimed to expand the narrative of what it means to be a woman from the stories in “The Vagina Monologues,” which Vernon said are mostly from a white, cisgender point of view. “Personal Monologues,” she said, was an opportunity for all female-identifying people to embrace their bodies. Senior Kajal Singh volunteered to speak about her experience as a woman of color. She spoke about an experience she had when she was told that she was not a “real” minority. “I thought that it was important to talk and tell my story, because as a woman

and a minority, I have a different identity than some of the other people who spoke tonight,” Singh said. She said she thinks it’s important to stand up for your own identity and experiences. “My piece of advice to everyone is to tell your story,” Singh said.

lecture was larger than their normal audiences. “He’s been a part of the community for a long time, and he helps and works with a lot of people on campus,” Pasternack said. Benson offered several pieces of advice throughout the event, including how to direct different actors, the importance of rhythm in comedy, and the differences between acting on Broadway and acting on film. Because of his musical background, Benson said he always looks at things from a musical perspective, both in his acting and in his directing. “All art aspires to music,” he said. “It’s all music to me.”

IU opens season with 2-3 tournament record By Jake Thomer jthomer@indiana.edu @jake_the_thomer
Indiana softball fought through several ups and downs and suffered a tough one-run loss to No. 21 California on Sunday en route to a 2-3 record this weekend at the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Arizona. On Friday, the Hoosiers opened up their 2016 campaign with a 5-3 defeat at the hands of IU Coach Michelle Gardner’s former team, the Nevada Wolf Pack. In the second game of the day, IU fell behind early to Fresno State and was ultimately shut out 7-0.
» HEAR ME OUT
Saturday marked the second day of collegiate action for freshmen pitchers Josie Wood and Tara Trainer, as Wood replaced fellow pitcher Emily Kirk to toss 5.1 scoreless innings in a 5-2 victory over Utah State. Trainer threw a complete game with 10 strikeouts as IU took down Georgia State 4-1 in the second game of the day. “I felt like we got off to a little bit of a slow start. I would’ve liked at least a split on Friday,” Gardner said. “But we came out Saturday and really just did things well all the way around.” After a two-day stretch with highs and lows for the Hoosiers, they took on the

with a hand in his face, some after IU just couldn’t evade the screens Michigan State set. Comfort. That was Crean’s key word in the success of Valentine. He said a defense needs to play Valentine for his scoring, shooting, driving and passing. Crean said Purdue, in a win over Michigan State on Tuesday, showed the key is wearing him down. IU needed to make Valentine more uncomfortable, and it didn’t do it well enough. The question is whether IU has a player that can adequately defend all of those skills. Very few schools do. Sure, IU has players great at defending a few of those skills, but who has the strength to hold ground, the athleticism to keep up and the intelligence to always play to game plan? Valentine is just that good. Maybe he would be contending with Oklahoma’s Buddy Hield for player of the year if he hadn’t missed a three-week stretch earlier in the season. Michigan State Coach Tom Izzo said it best. “Put it this way — I think he deserves to be in the race.”
offense. She’s such a threat on the inside, so it doesn’t bode well when she gets into foul trouble.” That zone defense is what gave the Hoosiers such a difficult time in offensive scoring, Moren said. The Wisconsin defense collapsed around sophomore guard Tyra Buss, closing passing lanes and creating turnovers or difficult shot opportunities. At halftime, Moren and the coaching staff told the players to be more aggressive and push the pace on offense. “At the beginning of the game, we kind of played like we did when we played against them at their place,” Buss said. “We didn’t do very well there. The majority of Coach’s halftime speech was pushing the pace on offense.” Buss translated Moren’s talk to the floor immediately. She scored IU’s first eight points in less than two minutes to bring IU within two points of the lead. Once the Hoosiers took the lead with 2:41 remaining in the third quarter, they never gave it back. The change in offense

Golden Bears of California on Sunday morning and battled back from a 6-3 deficit to tie the game up in the 5th inning on an RBI single from senior infielder Michelle Huber. The Hoosiers ultimately gave up the game-winning run on an infield single later that same inning and fell 7-6 to the Golden Bears. Trainer came on to provide relief for Wood and didn’t allow a run in the final 2.1 innings of the game, but IU failed to produce a run in the last two frames. Trainer spoke after the game about the ever-changing responsibilities of the pitching staff. All three Hoosier pitchers were used as
both starters and relievers this weekend. “It’s a little different mentality depending on what you’re doing,” Trainer said. “But we’re a pitching staff, so we need to help each other out whenever we can.” Trainer struck out 20 batters on the weekend in a litle more than 13 innings of work, including posting the first 10-strikeout game by a Hoosier since April 2014. The offense, which was the hallmark of last year’s team, struggled in its first weekend despite returning eight starters. Junior infielder CaraMia Tsirigos led the team with a .417 batting average, along
with a home run and three runs batted in. Fellow junior Erin Lehman also hit a home run in the tournament, and senior outfielder Shannon Cawley led IU in hits with six. Wood said she was pleased both with how her first official college experience went and how the team gelled as the weekend progressed. “There was a lot of learning involved, but I think we played pretty well,” Wood said. “Each day we got better, and it was nice to see how we came together.” The Hoosiers have begun each of the past four season at the Kajikawa Classic, which is hosted by Arizona State.
Last year they went 1-4 at the tournament, so they move on to their second tournament of 2016 in Florida next weekend already in a better position than last year. IU will play in Miami at the Panther Invitational Tournament next weekend. Gardner said she is focused on limiting walks for opponents and awakening what she knows can be the team’s strongest asset — the offense. “We obviously can still make some better pitches, I want to really keep attacking the zone,” Gardner said. “And on the offensive side we certainly have work to do. We need to score some more runs.”
resulted in a change on defense, as senior Wisconsin guard Nicole Bauman, who scored 24 points in the previous matchup, was held scoreless in the second half after posting eight first-half points. Senior guard Dakota Whyte, who Moren said the Hoosiers had no answer for in the first half, shot just 3-for-7 in the second half and committed three fouls. Moren said she thought junior guard Alexis Gassion did a tremendous job defending Bauman most of the game. “She chased her out and our post coverage was good. That’s good team defense.” With the win, IU moves on to its final four regular season games with a conference record of 9-5. IU plays Minnesota on Thursday, which sits a half-game ahead of IU for third place in the Big Ten. “It’s important as a staff and for me as a coach that I managed these guys and demand excellence,” Moren said. “There’s a lot of basketball left. A lot of areas to continue to grow and to learn and to improve and to get better, but we’re going to get some rest.
