difficulty that comes with leaving, and they thought they were prepared for Maria. Delgadillo said for many in Puerto Rico, the population gets very anxious when a storm approaches. “I’ve been through multiple hurricanes myself, and you always get really anxious because you can’t really tell. And it’s coming, you can’t really make it

As another professional sports season opens, another female graduate of Colorado State University is making her presence known in the coaching ranks. 2015 CSU alumna and Pueblo, Colorado-native Kelsey Martinez was brought on the Oakland Raiders coaching staff as the first female assistant strength and conditioning coach before the 2018 season. Martinez grew up loving sports. She played softball at Bethany College in Kansas before continuing her education at CSU in 2014 for her final two years as an undergraduate, earning a degree in health and exercise science. The experiences Martinez gained from studying at CSU played a crucial role in leading her to where she is today. “It really prepared me well, all of the classes did,” Martinez said. “To this day, I use what I’ve learned. They had every tool that I needed and the biggest thing was them getting us into the working field. It made the process so much smoother.” The launching point for Martinez was a required internship she had to complete to earn her degree. With the aid of her health and exercise science instructor Wendy DeYoung, Martinez decided to put her efforts into interning for the ESPN-affiliated Tom Shaw Performance camp in Orlando,

CSU community member recounts connection to Hurricane Maria By Austin Fleskes @Austinfleskes07

It’s been one year since Hurricane Maria struck the United States territory of Puerto Rico. Several weeks of destruction tore the island apart, cut power and took lives. But the effects of the hurricane were not exclusive to the island and the population living there. The ramifications hit people all across the world.

“I was going to school. I was working. And just kind of keeping in touch with my family and making sure they were okay and they were prepared and they had everything they needed,” said Ana Delgadillo, a Colorado State University student studying nutrition and dietetics and currently taking time off from the University. Delgadillo grew up in San Juan, Puerto Rico. She said her childhood was a very special

one where she was connected to her community. “Our culture back home is a lot about community. Everyone takes care of each other, everyone shares the same experiences because of how we grew up,” Delgadillo said. “It’s like a big family.” Delgadillo was attending CSU when Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico. She said her family stayed in the country after Hurricane Irma because of the

New clinical research lab helps Rams conduct nutritional studies By Emma Iannacone @EmmaIannacone

A newly renovated clinical research lab is offering opportunities for food science and human nutrition students. The Office of the Vice President for Research funded the Food and Nutrition Clinical Research Laboratory in collaboration with the Office of the Vice President for University Operations and Facilities Management. The lab, located on the second floor of Gifford building, will facilitate research on the role and efficacy of bioactive food components, such as antioxidants and how those increase or decrease the risk of chronic diseases, said Sarah Johnson, director of the Functional Foods & Human Health Laboratory. Some current studies being conducted at the lab include how a high-fat diet can increase the risk of chronic diseases and how bioactive food components can reduce risk of chronic diseases, according to Johnson.By renovating the laboratory, Johnson said, undergraduate and graduate students in the department will be more involved in clinical research studies.

“The purpose of this program is to catalyze new research, to improve existing infrastructure, to not only enhance our current capabilities but to enhance and catalyze future research capabilities,” Johnson said. Students like Kiri Michell, a senior food science and human nutrition major, are excited about the opportunities the new lab will offer. “We have some new technology that we’re able to use, and the space is just really nice and laid out and easy for us to navigate,” said Michell. Michell said she will be using the lab to study how blueberries affect cardiovascular health in post-menopausal women. “I think it will really help with all of our human research as well as our clinical studies,” Michell said. Johnson said having the clinical research lab in the Gifford building will be advantageous for the department because they can better collaborate with the existing labs, like the sensory analysis laboratory. “We have that qualitative component but we also have quantitative data that we’re collecting all the way from the cellular level… to the organ systems

level,” Johnson said. Food science and human nutrition graduate student Allegra Vazquez said she is excited about the location of the new lab. “It’s around the corner from our study lab that we currently work in, so it’s a lot more easy to access and a lot more machines and techniques that we get to

use than we would having to go to a different lab and having to spend more time in transit,” Vazquez said. This lab is different from the department’s existing 13 labs because there’s more opportunity for student-faculty collaboration, Vazquez said. “There’s a lot more interac-

tion between the faculty, which is really nice,” Vazquez said. “We get to learn from masters students that we’ve never met before, so that’s something different.” Emma Iannacone can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Maria >> from page 1 stop,” she said. “It doesn’t just come out of nowhere. You can see it coming.” When Maria hit the island and citizens lost power, Delgadillo lost contact with her mother, who was living in a high flood area. She didn’t hear from her for a week. “The people that I knew were around her I was able to communicate with, but no one knew where she was, because she wasn’t where she said where she said she was going to be,” Delgadillo said. “So I started to get a little bit anxious and a little bit nervous. And by the end of the week, I just lost it because I really didn’t know where she was.” Delgadillo also could not reach her sister or father, who were living in a mountainous area at the time. When she finally got in touch with her mother, she said the vocal reunion was filled with tears. Delgadillo’s mother told her she couldn’t talk much because she was on a stranger’s phone, but she was safe. Delgadillo said such a massive relief gave her a panic attack because of its weight. “Honestly, I just felt helpless. It wasn’t happening to me but in a way it was,” Delgadillo said. “Just knowing everyone there was going through such a hard time ... and I couldn’t really do anything or be there support them. It’s very intense.” Delgadillo said the recovery period for her family was different for every member, but her mother was highly affected. But Delgadillo said the recovery for her friends and family, as well as much of the rest of the island, was slow due to the lack of power. “Without the power, it is too hard to recover,” Delgadillo said. “And that took way too long to be put back together.” Recent reports from the Puerto Rican government estimate it will cost $139 billion to recover from both Hurricanes Maria and Irma, according to National Public Radio. Puerto Rico’s general budget for next year is less than $9 billion, meaning the cost of recovery is more than 15 times the annual budget for the island. And this recovery is still going on. Tyler Stup, a CSU alumnus and member of the Federal Emergency Management Agency Corps, is currently in San Juan digitizing records with San Juan police to ensure that all officers are properly compensated for overtime work during Hurricanes Irma and Maria. Stup wrote in an email to The Collegian that the effects

of the hurricanes are in the details. “Because San Juan is a tourist area the big stuff has been all done here,” Stup wrote. “But you’ll still see a stoplight that isn’t working, windows boarded up because they have been replaced, vacant lots and buildings that have been pretty beaten up and can’t be lived in anymore.” Stup added that, as far as he can tell as a corps member, Puerto Rico has come together after this disaster. “The phrase ‘Puerto Rico se levanta’ (roughly translated to ‘Puerto Rico rises’) is every-

where,” Stup wrote. “And on the FEMA side, everyone is super dedicated to the recovery aspect.” While recovery efforts continue, Delgadillo feels that both the U.S. and Puerto Rican government can do a better job at helping citizens. “There are a lot of people that are still suffering that really need to be taken care of,” Delgadillo said, referencing issues such as the education program in Puerto Rico. With Hurricane Florence raging in the eastern area of the United States, Delgadillo said that the best way for citizens in

those areas and students with family there should stick together as a community. “Everyone is going through a hard time, so this is the time to show that you’re a country that sticks together and loves each other no matter what,” Delgadillo said. Delgadillo said she hopes people in the U.S. educate themselves on what Puerto Rico does to understand it’s importance and what Hurricane Maria did to the country. “Everyone should be educated on this topic, especially on what Puerto Rico is — what powers they have, what powers

they don’t and the hardships we go through to survive as a colony,” Delgadillo said. “Really educate yourselves. Don’t really pick a side, just do something. Just talk about it.”

Hurricane Florence hits CSU from 1,720 miles away By Daniela Navarro & Julia Trowbridge @CSUCollegian

Although Hurricane Florence slowed down by the time it hit North Carolina, it still caused serious damage, according to early reports. These damages have affected numerous Colorado State University staff members and students. Many areas are still inaccessible, and with the continuous flooding from rising rivers, accessibility is only getting more difficult, said Sarah Phillips, an online international development professor for CSU. Phillips is currently in North Carolina, about 200 miles from the coast. “The news doesn’t really focus very heavily on the financial implications for victims,” Philip said. “Not everyone can afford flood insurance, or never thought to buy flood insurance ‘cause they’re not in a floodplain. Homeowners insurance doesn’t cover floods.” The hurricane has impacted families and friends of CSU staff and students emotionally and financially. Senior communication studies major Annabel Wall said her family was safe from the storm, but the same cannot be said for their beach house and surf shop on the Crystal Coast. The shop was completely destroyed. “It’s hard to be in Colorado and not really know the

effects of the hurricane, but I’m really just looking for any way that we can help them rebuild their business,” Wall said. “There’s the worry about the extra expense of cleaning up and rebuilding the whole business, which is something you don’t plan for. You don’t just think, ‘Oh if a hurricane comes through, do we have enough revenue to get through the winter?’”

“The Crystal Coast was really my happy place. It’s where I go every summer. It’s an extra worry, and it’s sad that we might not be able to go back there.” ANNABEL WALL SENIOR COMMUNICATION STUDIES MAJOR

The impacts of natural disasters can place worries and anxieties on staff and students. It can cause a lot of added stress especially because of the distance, Wall said. These worries can affect academic or work performance anddaily life either in the long or short term. “Stress and anxiety from loved ones or community don’t have a mileage limit,” Phillips said. “After a natural disaster, it’s important to be grateful that you’re not in that situation, but also to figure out a way to

help others that are to be there for them.” Victims are grateful that Florence came at the strength it did, Phillips said. It was predicted to make landfall at Category 4 strength and could have created damage all the way up to the state capital, according to National Public Radio. Philip Klotzbach, a CSU atmospheric science professor who specializes in hurricanes, said when compared to Hurricane Harvey or Irma, Hurricane Florence’s winds were not as strong. The majority of the damage was caused by storm surges and swelling of rivers, due to the storm stalling at the coast. “What makes Florence different from these storms is once it hit the coast, it didn’t move,” Klotzbach said. “That’s why it caused so much trouble. The wind damage from Florence was minimal, but there was a whole lot of rain (damage).” The creation of Hurricane Florence was slightly different than past hurricanes, due to how quickly it formed in the Atlantic Ocean, Klotzbach said. Hurricanes that travel the Atlantic Ocean originate as thunderstorms in African mountains, which then migrate to the coast. “With Florence, it actually formed pretty much right after it hit the coast... so it was tracked all the way across the Atlantic,” Klotzbach said. “It was named for 15 days, so it was

a very long-lived storm.” Now that Florence has slowed down, those impacted are beginning to realize the effects. After suffering from a disaster, the hardest thing can be establishing a new sense of normal, Wall said. “The Crystal Coast was really my happy place, it’s where I go every summer,” Wall said.

“It’s an extra worry, and it’s sad that we might not be able to go back there.” Editor’s note: If you or a loved one was impacted by Hurricane Florence and want to share your story, please email news@collegian.com. Daniela Navarro can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Rising waters continue to frustrate rescue efforts and residents By Molly Hennessy-Fiske Los Angeles Times

Rivers continued to rise out of their banks across the Carolinas on Tuesday, frustrating rescue efforts and residents hoping to return home. North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper and Brock Long, administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, acknowledged the difficulties following a tour of flooded areas in the Tar Heel State. “It’s really important for me to get out of D.C. and make sure we’re doing a good job,” Long said, adding that he’s pleased with what he’s seen but “the next 48 hours are going to be incredibly critical.” “We realize there’s a lot of displaced folks and we’re doing what we can to make life better,” Long said. “It’s going to take some time for these waters to recede.” The FEMA chief said floodwaters have hampered repair crews trying to reopen roads and restore power. He said officials would examine the impact of the storm on the environment and industry. Environmental groups worried the storm may have washed away toxic ash from power plants and hog waste from open-air storage lagoons. Up to half of the state’s tobacco crop was still in the fields and could be damaged, Cooper said, along with cotton and peanut crops. “We’re going to be dealing with a lot of hazardous waste, agricultural issues,” he said. Long said FEMA sent several thousand claims adjusters and disaster assistance teams to community centers and shelters in storm-battered areas to register people for assistance “so we can kick-start recovery.” He said he has been discussing options for temporary, post-storm housing with Cooper, who acknowledged the state has struggled with affordable housing. Cooper urged storm victims to register with FEMA by phone or online, to evacuate as directed and not drive around road barricades. He asked evacuees not to return to coastal Hanover, New Brunswick and Pender counties yet, even though many feel the storm has become “a nightmare that just won’t end.” “Sunshine doesn’t necessarily mean safety. Rivers continue to rise and we will see more flooding,” Cooper said. He said the state’s death toll from Florence increased to 26 Tuesday. More than 2,200 people and 578 animals had been rescued from floodwaters, Cooper said, and 10,000 remained in shelters. Officials opened four emergency kitchens serving free hot meals in Kinston, Lumberton, New Bern and Washington and planned to open four more this week. More than 1,100 roads have been closed, including I-95 and

40, and 343,000 people were still without power, Cooper said. An emergency ferry had been created between Morehead City and Wilmington that was expected to start shipping much needed supplies Wednesday, according to James Trogdon, the state’s transportation secretary. Cooper said he would take Long on a visit to Wilmington late Tuesday, and he also planned to meet with President Donald Trump when he visits the state this week. Florence’s peak rainfall – 35.94 inches at Elizabethtown, N.C. – was the fourth-highest for a U.S. hurricane since 1950 and left rivers across the Carolinas swollen. The storm has killed a total of 32 people, including a 1-year-old boy whose body was found Monday after he was swept away by floodwaters near Charlotte. Across North Carolina, 16 rivers had reached major flood stage Tuesday morning, and several more were expected to crest soon, according to Mike Steele, a spokesman for the state emergency management agency. He said high-water rescues were ongoing in several areas. “The good news is we are starting to see a lot of them peak, but it is going to cause a lot of complications as far as access to roadways for an extended period of time,” said Steele, who came from the Baton Rouge, La., area to help with the disaster. “This is the same situation we faced in Louisiana and Texas during Hurricane Harvey,” he said. “By the time you put a report out, some of the conditions have changed.” That has led officials to direct residents to stay off the roads or to check state transportation websites for updates. Matt Stewart, 37, and his family of four were stuck in Raleigh after trying unsuccessfully to return home to Wilmington, blocked by road closures that have cut off that coastal city of 120,000. The family planned to try a new route Tuesday, convoying with a friend in a truck. His father had taken the same route days before, but Stewart was worried about flooding since. “There isn’t any rivers or any lakes or ponds along that route,” Stewart said before setting off, worried his house, which had minor damage, might be leaking. “It’s my home, some of that stuff is irreplaceable.” Wilmington, where the storm made landfall, has seen a Dollar Store looted and gas and food shortages. About 62,000 people there were still without power. Officials were preparing to distribute food at three centers around the city Tuesday, said Jessica Loper, a spokeswoman for surrounding New Hanover County. Content pulled from Tribune News Service.

ASCSU approves bills to honor deceased students, fund AISES Pow Wow

WE NEED YOU!

By Stuart Smith @stuartsmithnews

The Associated Students of Colorado State University Senate unanimously approved a bill that would send University flags to the families of deceased students, along with a bill allocating $15,000 for the annual American Indian Science and Engineering Society Pow Wow. Senators also discussed funding for the Fort Collins Book Fest held next month.

Senate unanimously approves of Flag Bill

Speaker of the Senate Ben Amundson introduced a bill to the floor last week that would allocate $1,000 to buy CSU flags from the bookstore to send to families of students who pass away while attending CSU Fort Collins and CSU Online. The bill went to a vote with little discussion and was approved 37-00. “It shows that our Senate’s heading in the right direction, caring about students,” Amundson said after the bill passed. “We want to honor students and give them back the money they’ve paid in student fees.” ASCSU has historically sent CSU flags to families in these situations, along with a letter from the current ASCSU President, but it never had a clear source of funding With Amundson’s bill, the money will now be transferred from the Senate Discretionary Fund to ASCSU’s Supplies Fund. The flags have not been sent to families of students at CSU-Pueblo in the past, so Amundson did not include them in the bill. “We have not gotten an answer on why CSU-Pueblo is not part of this,” Amundson said. He believes it is most likely because they have their own student government.

$15,000 for annual AISES Pow Wow approved unanimously

ASCSU Director of Finance Lynsie Roper brought a bill to the Senate to approve a $15,000 request by AISES for their 36th annual Pow Wow. The Senate approved the bill with a vote of 39-0-0. The Pow Wow is a collaborative effort between AISES, RamEvents, the Native American Cultural Center and the Office of the President. According to the bill, the Pow Wow is scheduled to take place Nov. 3. “It’s really been almost an escape for our Native American students here on campus,” NACC member and senior biomedical engineering major Mathew Beardtsaid. “It’s a big culture shock for a lot of us students coming here who might live on reservations, it’s just a way for us to come out and be really comfortable with who we are here

on campus.” NACC Senator Milena Castaneda voiced her support for the pow wow as well. “This is a great historical situation for us because it is a ‘home away from home’ celebration,” Castaneda said. “We don’t get this here in Fort Collins.” The funding had already been approved by the Board for Student Organization Funding, but because of the large amount of money involved, it required Senate approval as well.

Bill to help fund Fort Collins Book Festival discussed

Director of University Affairs Kanaya Okolo presented a bill to the Senate that would give $2,000 from the Senate Discretionary Fund to help fund the Fort Collins Book Fair organized by Poudre River Public Library. Okolo has already committed $4,000 from the executive branch, so Senate approval would bring the total to $6,000. Guests of the Book Fest, scheduled for Oct. 19 and 20, will include authors such as Andy Weir, who wrote “The Martian,” and former Colorado Governor Bill Ritter Jr. The festival is hosted at a varity of venues throughout Old Town, according to their website. According to the bill, the Book Fest shares a CSU value in promoting music, books and poetry. Okolo said it would also provide a chance for students to connect. “I saw this as an opportunity for people to network,” Okolo said. “At the end of the day, we’re all here for an education but we’re also here to network and make those relationships with people that are here on campus and are not here on campus.” This bill will be voted on during the Senate’s session next Wednesday.

COLLEGIAN COLUMNISTS

Head coach Mike Bobo’s contract is bad business Rory Plunkett @jericho_wav

Editor’s Note: All opinion section content reflects the views of the individual author only and does not represent a stance taken by The Collegian or its editorial board. Last December, Mike Bobo signed a five-year contract extension, so he’ll be the Colorado State University football program’s head coach through 2022. Joe Parker, CSU’s athletic director, was convinced that Bobo was leading the program in the right direction and, with this new deal, raised Bobo’s salary to $1.85 million. This is a bad contract on

behalf of CSU because Mike Bobo has not deserved this amount of money, especially considering other coaches’ salaries in the Mountain West Conference. Boise State’s Bryan Harsin, arguably the best coach in the Mountain West division, is paid about $1.5 million a year, according to Harsin’s public employment contract records. Boise State is 2-1 on the year with a combined score of 13971 over their trio of opponents. Colorado State, on the other hand, has lost three of their first four games and their aggregate score is 91-163, with CSU only scoring 91 points in four games compared to Boise State’s 118 points in two games. Harsin is paid less than Mike Bobo though he has produced better results in a fewer

number of games. While the relative strength of each schedule should also be taken into account — with CSU having one of the hardest — a 1-3 start for CSU Football is not promising for a coach that received a pay raise.

“Mike Bobo is overpaid and needs to prove his worth in the remaining games he has this season.” CSU should not be last in the Mountain West standings if Bobo is guaranteed $1.85 million in 2018. While other coaches in our conference are being paid less

SERIOUSLY

The Stump requests pay raise By Ethan Vassar @ethan_vassar

Editor’s note: This is a satire piece from The Collegian’s opinion section. Real names may be used in fictitious/semi-fictitious ways. Those who do not read editor’s notes are subject to being offended. FORT COLLINS - It has been almost a year since Colorado State football coach Mike Bobo was given a contract extension through 2022, raising his salary to $1.85 million a year, and The Stump is furious. The Stump, whose legal

name is Theodore Stumpson, claims the University promised to allocate some resources to give it a raise more in line with the likes of Bobo’s paycheck but has not been contacted with a new offer. “I’m not the f*cking giving tree,” The Stump said, eluding to the classic children’s book in which a tree selflessly give away all it has to offer to a man. “I deserved a raise before Bobo, I’ve been here longer.” You definitely wouldn’t be going out on a limb to say The Stump is ... well, stumped by the University’s decision not

to renegotiate its contract. The Stump proceded to take up the rest of the interview time roasting the CSU football coach. Despite its prickly nature, The Stump is extremely important to the CSU campus. It reinforces the importance and value of free speech. Its platform inspires conversation and encourages students to speak up for what they believe in. The Stump is doing its job. It’s up to the University if they want to listen. Ethan Vassar can be reached at letters@collegian.com.

KCSU IS OUT OF THIS WORLD

and producing better results, Joe Parker seems confident in Bobo’s ability to lead CSU’s football program. Since Bobo has been the head coach, CSU has been to three bowl games, but we have lost four Rocky Mountain Showdowns. The last time we won a Rocky Mountain Showdown was 2014, when Jim McElwain was CSU’s head coach. While three bowl games look good for a resume of a new head coach, four losses to Boulder should stand out as well, in a bad way. Bobo needs to step up and show us that he is worth the hefty $1.85 million salary. Bobo’s health has become a factor as well. Bobo was not able to coach the season opener against Hawaii. It is possible

that Bobo will not be able to commit or perform as he focuses on his health. With this new contract, it would be even more expensive for CSU to buy Bobo out than for CSU to wait out the contract. Therefore Bobo could not be concerned with how his team plays as long as he knows he will get paid. Bobo is overpaid in relation to Harsin, but Bobo’s results do not match Harsin’s or meet the CSU community’s expectations to beat our rivals. Bobo is overpaid and needs to prove his worth in the remaining games he has left this season. Rory Plunkett can be reached at letters@collegian. com.

FOOTBALL

The Rams’ upcoming three-game stretch is pivotal Luke Zahlmann @lukezahlmann

Already 1-3 on the year, Colorado State football has the next three games to make their season memorable. Starting with their Ag Day matchup against the Illinois State Redbirds, the Rams are set to face a pivotal stretch in their season, facing three beatable opponents. Two of the contests are at Canvas Stadium. The Redbirds, members of the FCS, were thought to be a guaranteed win coming into the season for the Rams. After the way the team has started, even ESPN has the No. 15 Redbirds as slight favorites in win probability, despite CSU playing host. A true favorite is unknown due to a unavailable gambling lines for matchups between FBS and FCS teams. With an all-time record of 2028423-18 in favor of FBS schools over FCS as of 2013, the Rams losing would be an anomaly. The Redbirds will be a capable opponent for the Rams, as they have yet to allow more than 10 points in their pair of games this year. A loss to ISU would result in a lost season for the Rams, with their

lone win the rest of the year coming against the San Jose State Spartans. The Spartans, though the laughing stock of the conference for several years, will play host to the Rams coming out of their matchup with the Redbirds. Still winless through a trio of games, the Spartans are another easy matchup for the Rams. The team will face a must-win matchup in for the second game in as many weeks. CSU has won their last two matchups with the Spartans. The third team in the series for the Rams is the University of New Mexico as they will head to Fort Collins to take part in the Homecoming Game Oct. 13. The Lobos stand as the stiffest competition of the three. They will likely enter the game against the Rams sitting at no worse than 3-2, with a 4-1 record well within their means. Each team will face the Rams with records that do not pale in comparison. The only possible result for the Rams if they hope to enter bowl season as participants is to go undefeated. Following the stretch, the Rams immediately head to Boise, Idaho to play against the best team they will face the rest of the year. After their battle in the Spud State, the Rams return home to host the Border War. Heading into both matchups, the Rams will be underdogs, likely

by double digits. For them to pull off the upsets, CSU will have to showcase rare high-level performances. Thought to be a key win, the Rams’ victory over the University of Arkansas is looking to be less impressive given the Razorbacks’ blowout at the hands of North Texas.

Utah State also serves as an upper-tier Mountain West team the Rams will face the rest of the year. With three loses nearly guaranteed, the Rams will be forced to win each game outside of them to be bowl eligible. Air Force will not serve as an easy matchup for the

Rams either, signaling their hopes of playing postseason football already being bleak. Without a three-game win streak going into Boise, the Rams’ season is likely lost. Luke Zahlmann can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

Martinez >> from page 1

Florida for a full semester. After completing her internship and graduating from CSU, Shaw brought Martinez on to work full-time in Orlando. Martinez specialized in high-performance training for four years under Shaw before they were both promoted to the NFL. Martinez credits Shaw for giving her the necessary experience to succeed. “As soon as I worked with Tom Shaw, he had NFL players with him,” Martinez said. “He had been working with them for years and years, so when I got there I already was able to start working with them. The competitiveness that was in Florida was pretty mind-blowing.” Working in the NFL and under Raiders head coach Jon Gruden calls for maximum effort at all times, something Martinez does not mind even on the longer days. Martinez focuses heavily on constant improvement during the week. “We work with the guys inside the weight room and get them to try to be more explosive and prevent them from getting injured on the field,” Martinez said. “We are kind of in charge of getting them ready for practice and to start the game.” Martinez’s work with players is generally the same in the regular season as any other time, but she noted that relationship-wise, the regular season is more ideal. “The biggest difference is the amount of people here,” Martinez said. “You go from a huge roster to a 53-man roster. Before players made the final roster, you had to move through a lot of guys. Now that it is down, you get even closer with some of the guys.” Martinez adds to a consistently growing list of CSU female graduates who have made an impact in the sports world. The list is headlined by Becky Hammon, former Rams’ women’s basketball star and the first full-time female assistant NBA coach. In addition, Jenny Cavnar became the third female ever to call play-by-play for an MLB game. Martinez acknowledged the role CSU faculty have played in the modern triumph of female graduates. “I really think it’s awesome that they are able to develop people and prepare them for their careers (in sports),” Martinez said. “It kind of says a lot. It just seems like the professors (and) the people that work for CSU just really understand what needs to be done to get students prepared to make a career for themselves.”

Being a female assistant coach in the NFL is a unique accomplishment. There are currently only two other full-time assistant female coaches in the NFL, Kathryn Smith for the Buffalo Bills and Katie Sowers for the San Francisco 49ers. Despite the rarity, Martinez is not surprised that she has made it this far in so little time. The lessons she has learned since 2015 left no question in her mind that she would end up in the NFL. “To make it where I am right now is huge to me,” Martinez said. “It’s just something that I thought when I was in Orlando that I could see myself doing. The experience that I’ve been able to have to continue to do what I love is the biggest thing.” Last Sunday, Martinez had the opportunity to return to her home state when the Raiders faced the Broncos at Mile High Stadium in Denver, a very special moment for Martinez considering her family was in attendance at the game. The road continues on for the former Ram as the Raiders head to Miami for a showdown with the Dolphins Sept. 23. Eddie Herz can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

FOOTBALL

CSU’s Carta-Samuels’ physical and mental skills have progressed By Eddie Herz @Eddie_Herz

Redshirt senior quarterback K.J. Carta-Samuels has yet to doubt himself on Colorado State’s offense. Transferring to a new program, learning a new offensive scheme and being named CSU’s starter after serving as a backup at Washington for three seasons led to a period of adjustment. But the general sense from Carta-Samuels’ performance through four games this season is one of confidence in his abilities. After all, the statistics stand out. Despite subpar outings against the University of Colorado and University of Florida, the quarterback has already thrown for 1,319 yards and nine touchdowns. The figure is nearly 100 more yards and one more touchdown than Nick Stevens accumulated last season. Carta-Samuels has also thrown half as many interceptions. Though the quarterback started out hot by throwing 537 yards against Hawaii in CSU’s first game this season, there are other aspects he has improved on. One has been his ability to shake off plays and move on. “It’s simply that sometimes you are going to make some good plays and sometimes you are going to make some bad plays,” Carta-Samuels said. “The bad ones don’t stick in my head. (Even) picks, it doesn’t matter. I know that I can play well so that’s all that matters.”

There are mental aspects CSU players have noticed the quarterback has improved on as well. Considering Carta-Samuels was never under the spotlight in his collegiate career before becoming a Ram, there are nerves attached to leading an offense. The quarterback was excited to open the season before playing Hawaii, but there is no denying he felt a bit of anxiousness too. That level of anxiety has since disappeared. “He’s more calm,” senior wide receiver Olabisi Johnson said. “The first few weeks you get going in a real game and you get a little jittery, but he’s definitely handled it and he’s way more comfortable back there.” More playing time has also helped Carta-Samuels’ game. Although facing Washington’s defense in practice for a handful of seasons helped the quarterback develop, nothing helps more than meaningful in-game experience. Coach Mike Bobo emphasized improvement in Carta-Samuels’ ability to operate outside of the pocket during the offseason. The skill is something the quarterback continuously worked on that can be seen when watching him play. “Once he gets out of the pocket, he doesn’t panic too much anymore,” Johnson said. “He’s hit me on a few of his scrambles and I really like the way he is when he’s outside of the pocket now.” Carta-Samuels can be described as an easy-going, laid

back guy. Trusting him on the field has taken some time. CSU players have always trusted and been confident in their quarterback. Carta-Samuels has earned that trust by showing his commitment to his teammates. “He’s always prepared,” sophomore tight end Cameron Butler said. “He goes to meetings early and leaves late. He texts us on Saturdays and things like that. He’s confident in himself and that makes us even more confident in him.” It has not been all smooth sailing for Carta-Samuels though. His team is 1-3 and the quarterback has been briefly pulled for backup Collin Hill in three of the Rams’ four games this season. For a quarterback trying to establish himself, being replaced can be demoralizing, but getting pulled has sharpened the quarterback’s mental edge overall. Carta-Samuels’ confidence has persevered through being forced to sit on the bench. “(Getting benched) does nothing in terms of my confidence because I know that I’ve been playing well,” Carta-Samuels said. “I don’t really need to think about was it because I missed one or two throws. Sometimes coaches just want to do what they want to do. You have no control over it.” Within the Rams’ first four games, they have squared up against three-consecutive Power-Five programs and twostraight SEC opponents. CSU has played the toughest schedule to

date in comparison with the rest of the Mountain West. Benefits come with playing superior competition though, something that is especially true for Carta-Samuels. “You’re having to stand in there against a pretty good pass rush,” Bobo said. “You’re throwing the ball against tight coverage when you’re playing some of these teams. The time you have is a little bit shorter. The decisions you have to make have to be quicker. So I think he’s improved every week with that.” There is more for Bobo to be satisfied about regarding the quarterback’s production than to be upset about. That doesn not

mean there is not anything for Carta-Samuels to improve on. The beginning stages of the season have only recently been completed. “He still has to improve with his fundamentals and his footwork, that is something that we are harping on everyday,” Bobo said. “At the same time, I don’t want to take his ability away to make plays. But we’ve got to be fundamentally sounder at the quarterback position.” Carta-Samuels’ next opportunity comes at home against Illinois State Sept. 22.

GOLF

Men’s golf dominates Ram Classic, women finish in the middle By Mack Beaulieu @Macknz_James

Both of the Colorado State golf teams competed in their annual Ram Classic at the Fort Collins Country Club this week with the men winning theirs by a wide margin. The women had a somewhat disappointing start to their season, struggling in the event. The men’s team started their second tournament of the year Monday, and it was the only day the Rams really had much competition. The Illinois State Redbirds finished one stroke ahead of the Rams after the first round, but never posed much of a challenge once the second round started. Four Rams shot under par in the second round of the tournament, led by freshman Parathakorn Suyasri with a 4-under 66. “The golf course is set up re-

ally difficult and it’s things you may see down the road, especially in a regional championship,” Coach Christian Newton said. “So it’s good to face some pressure and those types of things in these conditions.” The Redbirds were still the closest competitor at the end, but by that time, the Rams had opened up an 11-stroke lead on the rest of the field. The lead never dropped to less than eight strokes during the third and final round Tuesday, even with the Rams having their worst day of the tournament. Perhaps a little complacent, everybody on the team shot over par for the Rams during the final day of the tournament. They still managed to finish with a 4-under 836 as a team and 14 shots ahead of the Redbirds. The win was the Rams fifth-consecutive in the Ram Masters tournament.

“I love to showcase Fort Collins and bring a lot of good teams here with a chance to take home a lot of wins,” Newton said. “Obviously, winning is a really big deal.” The women’s team went in the other direction. After a third-place finish last year, the Rams took sixth place in the Ptarmigan Ram Classic with disappointing finishes from some of their top golfers. The tournament started out slow Monday with last year’s NCAA Regional qualifiers, Ellen Secor and Katrina Prendergast, posting 6-over 78’s. Haley Greb, who had a strong second half last year, and Jessica Sloot surprised and helped carry the Rams through the first day as the team finished the first round in 10th. “Jessica Sloot is such a solid player and teammate.” Coach Laura Cilek said. “She’s always

grinding and you know she’s playing her hardest until the last putt drops ... Ellen had a tough start to the tournament, but her willingness to work hard and get better is what is going to prove to get her back on track. I have no doubt she will come out fighting next week in Idaho.” Prendergast turned things around on the second day while Secor continued to struggle. Prendergast led the team with a 1-under 71 while Sloot and Greb both finished with 2-over 74’s. Freshman Sydney Smith registered her first collegiate round as well, finishing the day fourth for the Rams with a 6-over 78. The Rams made their biggest push of the weekend in that second round, where they built momentum at the turn. The Rams had six birdies and an eagle on the back nine to help pull them into seventh before

the start of Wednesday’s final round. The third day was the best for the Rams overall, but it did little to change the tournament’s outcome. Behind the third solid day from Greb, who finished the round at even par, the Rams were able to secure sixth place by one stroke. Both teams will have some decisions to make going forward as both had players finish well as individuals who were not in this week’s top five. The women’s team will make that decision a little sooner as they play in the Coeur D’alene Collegiate Invite Sept. 24. The men start a rare individuals tournament on the same day at the Mark Simpson-Colorado Invitational. Mack Beaulieu can be reached at sports@collegian. com.

VOLLEYBALL

CSU volleyball set to begin their conference schedule this weekend By Sergio Santistevan @TheRealsSergio

The Mountain West conference has consistently run through Colorado State volleyball in the last decade and this season will be no different. The Rams have won eight of the last nine conference titles, 14 in total. CSU Coach Tom Hilbert has been responsible for all 14 regular-season titles in his 19 years at the forefront of the Rams’ coaching staff. CSU will be eyeing an elusive 15th conference championship, starting Sept. 20 in Reno, Nevada versus the University of Nevada. In the Mountain West preseason poll, the Wolfpack were voted to finish in tenth place, only ahead of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Going into conference play, the Wolfpack has posted a 7-4 record. Thursday’s game will be the home-opener for Nevada as they played five games on the road and six at neutral sites, going a perfect 6-0 at neutral sites. Nevada is led by a lone-senior, a plethora of juniors and a few underclassmen. Sophomore outside hitter Kayla Afoa is off to a tremendous start to the season. Afoa leads the Wolfpack in kills with 149 and is second in digs and service aces. After CSU returns from a quick trip to Nevada, they will be back in Moby Arena Sept. 22 in their annual Orange Out game

versus San Jose State University. The game will pose as another event for CSU’s homecoming festivities. The Spartans are 5-4 on the season and were picked to finish sixth in the Mountain West preseason rankings. Outside hitter Fernanda Vido headlines the Spartans’ attack. Vido has recorded a teamhigh 108 kills and 65 digs so far. Earlier this season, at the Hampton Inn & Suites Northern Colorado Classic, Vido was awarded the tournament’s Most Valuable Player. Entering this weekend, SJSU and CSU have one common opponent in the University of Northern Colorado. Both the Spartans and Rams swept the Bears in Greeley. Last season, the Spartans split the season series with the Rams, with their lone win coming in an

upset at Spartan Gym. That loss was only the Rams’ third of the season and only loss in conference play. In 2016, the Spartans shocked the Rams as well. Going into this season, they will be looking to make it three straight years with a win over the conference’s powerhouse. With four losses this season, the Rams will look towards their conference schedule to get things back on track. But the Rams are vulnerable right now. CSU is still trying to sort out some lineup issues and if the Wolfpack or Spartans wanted to make some noise in the Mountain West this weekend, this is the perfect opportunity. Unlike previous seasons, the road to a conference title will not be easy for CSU. Sergio Santistevan can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

SPORTS FOR DUMMIES

A guide to CSU gameday for the casual football fan By Ashley Potts @ashleypotts09

Unpopular opinion: Football is weird. While I—as a person who does not immediately shy away from things involving sports— understand football, I would say it is a conditional understanding. I understand the basics. I know what a first down is, I know what it means for the quarterback to be sacked and I know that a touchdown counts for six points plus one extra point for the kick after. That is where my football knowledge ends. In my experience, trying to gain more football understanding is like trying to get into a bar with a fake ID: It is possible, but it is not easy. A simple Google search uncovers more football words than I care to count, let alone

sift through and try to understand. Football, and sports in general, can feel really cliquey. You are either in the know or you are not. Asking questions usually just warrants laughs and wondering if you “seriously” do not know that seemingly simple rule or player or fact. But the culture is undeniably fun and something that even the most football-illiterate want to be a part of, even if only for a weekend. For those like myself, who have general knowledge of football but are hesitant to delve deeper into the fanatical world of “true” football fandom, consider this your opportunity to get your questions answered without feeling like a total outsider. I give you the football lingo for the casual fan, enough to get you through a commercial break-length rundown of what just happened, or keep up with

the yells of the crowd at the game this weekend. Special teams This term gets thrown around a lot, and it is not exclusive to football. In a sense, it means what it says. There are offensive players and defensive players and then there are special teams players, who “specialize” in situations where typical offensive and defensive lines do not make sense. In football, this includes place-kickers, punters and field goal kickers. They also include players to protect the kick from being blocked or dropped before the specialist is able to kick it. There’s even specialization within the special teams. There is a special teams unit that handles punts, punt returns and kickoffs, with another handling field goals and extra point attempts. Pocket This is another relative-

ly simple term. The pocket is simply the area that is created around the quarterback by his offensive line blocking other players so that the quarterback has room and time to make a good pass down the field. Pass interference This term comes up frequently in games. Pass interference is a foul that gets called when a player interferes with another player catching a pass beyond reason. This gets a bit complicated because only an “eligible player” can catch a “forward pass” for the whole thing to be legal. It is kind of like the football equivalent of offsides or icing, which are almost universally misunderstood rules in other sports. Basically if you are eligible to receive a pass and a referee uses his judgment to determine you were illegally interfered with, a flag gets thrown. Red zone

The red zone is basically the unofficial pressure zone. It’s essentially the last 20 yards before someone scores. When your team is on offense, the red zone is a good place to be, but it can also be stressful. If you get all the way there and waste it, it is obviously not good. When your team is on defense, the pressure is really on in the red zone to stop the other team from scoring. Either way, it is the zone where the game gets exciting. As previously stated, trying to understand all of football is a commitment. It will take more than one article or a Google search to truly contribute to a football conversation, but hopefully this has saved you some level of embarrassment or annoyance at people expecting you to know these things already.

COMMUNITY

Fort Collins speech pathologist helps bridge international language gaps By Walker Discoe @wdiscoe

Anyone who went through four full years of a high school foreign language course knows how difficult learning a second language can be. Those who learn English for business or cultural reasons may feel alienated or left out because of their accents. This is where services like the one Fort Collins resident Brooke Fischer provides come into play. Fischer is a speech-language pathologist who runs Accent Modification Services, LLC., a practice that focuses specifically on the targeted reductions of accents. She runs her practice from her home in Fort Collins by calling international clients through Skype for training. “We have specific skills that are helpful for people who want accent modification,” Fischer said. “We start with an analysis of their speech patterns, identify what needs to be improved, and from there just dig into the work and coaching of it.” Fischer works with her clients to address three main areas of speech: the pronunciation of difficult vowels, difficult consonants the client may be mispronouncing, and intonation and word-stress patterns. These last two make learning a new language tricky, as they are totally separate from grammar.

Intonation, the natural rise and fall of successive words, is something native speakers instinctively replicate when hearing the language as a baby. But for second-language learners, the process is not always instinctive. Gaby Murillo, a student who currently resides in Spain, is working with Fischer to steadily to reduce her accent when speaking English. “I think that the main change is in my mind,” Murillo wrote in a statement to The Collegian. “Now I’m always very aware of the sounds that I need to improve, and with the

“This is only for people who desire this. This is for people who say, ‘my accent is really inhibiting me from making that sales pitch’… it’s only when the person who seeks us out really wants it.” BROOKE FISCHER SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGIST

tools that Brooke has given me, I have everything I need to reduce my accent.” Murillo began working with

Fischer after she began speaking English more frequently, feeling that communication would become smoother and more fluid with a reduced accent. “I work with English speakers and sometimes they have a hard time understanding some words,” Murillo wrote. “So, I decided that I need to improve my accent. I’m becoming very aware of my pronunciation while talking.” According to Fischer’s website, “We value your linguistic identity and want to help you preserve it. Accent modification will not erase your accent, but will help you develop another sound that you can choose to use whenever you want to.” Fischer views learning to reduce an accent as a skill, just like learning a second language. According to Fischer, by learning to reduce an accent an individual doesn’t forget how to speak with the accent. Rather, if an individual learned to speak a second language, they wouldn’t forget how to speak their native one. “This is only for people who desire this,” Fischer said. “This is for people who say, ‘My accent is really inhibiting me from making that sales pitch’ … It’s only when the person who seeks us out really wants it.” Walker Discoe can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

6lack’s “East Atlanta Love Letter” shows a more emotional side of rap By Isabelle Rayburn @seiss_diosaa

Ricardo Valdez Valentine, also known as the artist “6lack” (pronounced “Black”) wrote us all an East Atlanta love letter. Throughout his musical career, the Grammy-nominated artist has broken down barriers of masculinity by describing his feelings and emotions throughout music, which is exactly what he did in his new sophomore album, “East Atlanta Love Letter.” The album is 14 songs but seven songs that embody 6lack’s message best are reviewed below. Each of these songs explains a piece of what 6lack is feeling as he transitions throughout the album. “Unfair” The intro to the album starts off slow, with a very vibey beat. In this song, 6lack speaks to a girl about how he feels stuck and unsure of his emotions, which is unfair to her. The last verse, “you said you never wanna share, but know I’m stuck between what I love and who I love and I know it’s unfair” explains the situation. This song leaves you wondering what 6lack is really going through and what he’s willing to share. “Loaded Gun” The transition from the intro songs to this one is amazing. It smoothly blends, is more upbeat and confirms that this album was put together well. The last line in the song is, “I got one baby, that’s one lady I’ma answer to, She be the reason

I’m righting my wrongs and shit Love is the reason I’m writing these songs and shit.” Baby has a double meaning here, as he is talking about his girl and his daughter, meaning they are both influencing him in the right way. “East Atlanta Love letter (feat. Future)” This song is the same title as the album as a whole. 6lack and Future discuss their curiosity for a girl using the metaphor, “Curiosity been at an all-time high in the treetops,” explaining that no one will love this girl better than them. “Sorry” (feat. Tierra Whack) Tierra Whack’s speaking flows perfectly into this song from the previous one and she finishes by saying how she is simply trying to focus on herself. This song is 6lack’s apology for what he has done to his girl. The post-chorus, “sitting here, patching myself up crying over what’s left, ‘cause without you, I ain’t shit, but no pressure guess I gotta learn my lesson,” shows he is deeply hurt about what happened. He discusses how he is “writing” his wrongs in this song. “Pretty Little Fears (feat. J. Cole)” This is 6lack’s first collaboration with J. Cole and it is my favorite song on the album. In this song, 6lack and J. Cole are speaking to different people. By the lyrics, I can tell that it was only a sexual relationship between 6lack and the girl. J. Cole speaks to someone that he is serious with, describing her as “honorable” and saying “you’re the flower that I gotta protect

and keep alive in the winter time.” “Seasons (feat. Khalid)” Khalid and 6lack team up to sing about how they need to start acting right for a girl with lyrics like, “You’re lucky the greatest thing I can do is marry you, ‘cause if I could, I’d spill my blood down to give you my last breath. The old me is on his last stretch I guess a new season’s next.” The new season they refer to is supposed to represent new beginnings. “Stan” A “stan” is defined as an obsessive fan of a celebrity which originated from an Eminem song, but in this case, 6lack wants his girl to be his “Stan.” This is the last song of the album and it is beautiful. The chorus says, “Say you’ll always be my greatest fan, sing your favorite words just like a band, only if you love me like a stan, down to walk the walk until the end, the prize, you find a lover and a friend baby, let me love you like a stan.” “‘Stan’ was my idea of what I thought love should feel like,” 6lack tweeted. “Wanted to make something that somebody somewhere could get married to.” Should you listen to it? Yes. Overall, this album is filled with emotions and it is very genuine when it comes to the words. You can tell that 6lack is really invested in what he does and deserves some credit.

Student-led ‘God of Carnage’ showcases CSU’s theatrical talent By Lauryn Bolz @laurynbolz

Theatre can be a challenging art form to conquer. Directors need inspiration, dedicated actors, a set, and lights, and everything has to come together seamlessly to transport the audience into the world of the play. Colorado State theatre students are meeting all those challenges and creating an entire show from scratch. Bradley Calahan, a senior theatre performance major, and Dan Issacs, a senior theatre performance major, decided to direct the first student production since Young Producer’s Organizations production of “Buried Child” in 2016. Calahan and Issacs selected the show “God of Carnage” by Yasmina Reza. The show centers around two couples meeting for the first time to discuss a fight between their children. The particularly small cast, along with the minimal set, gave Isaacs and Calahan the opportunity to express their creative freedom in different ways. “I really liked that (this show) has a four-person cast, and I really enjoy working on characters and being able to focus on each of the actors individually,” Issacs said. “It’s

been a fun process.” Actors Maggie Albanese, Holly Wedgeworth, Keegan Bockhorst and Bruce Gammonley seamlessly step into their roles as the frustrated and unhappy parents. They flawlessly portray themes of the complexity of human nature and primal instincts in the modern world, all with a hint of dark humor. According to Issacs, working with his fellow students as well as staying on top of the workload presented its own challenges. “The main challenge I think we faced was managing people who are our peers and don’t necessarily see us as someone they have to listen too,” Issacs said. “There was also the element of self-managing and making sure we stayed on top of our progress and work without someone watching us.” Perhaps more interesting than the drama onstage is how the show came together in the first place. “Brad (Calahan) and I became friends our first year here and we had talked about putting on a student show over the summer and it never really happened because it’s extremely difficult,” Isaacs said. “About a year ago we brought it up again and Bradley started the process of contacting the department head and getting the ball rolling.” After upwards of a year of plan-

ning and attaining approval from the department, the two were ready to really get the show on the road. Isaacs and Calahan carefully built a cast and crew of other students who they had worked with in previous shows. “We knew the whole cast before the show because we’ve acted with them over the past two years,” Cala-

han said. “It’s been a blast showing up to rehearsals and hanging out with them.” The show also offered hands on experience in theatre production. “One of the best things about this production being made up of entirely students is the capacity for learning,” said Tara Tolar-Payne, the stage manager for the show.

WHAT’S FOR DINNER WITH AUDREY

Lasagna dip revamps a classic dish on a budget By Audrey Weiss @Audkward

Payday was Friday, which means I could eat like a goddess. For me, nothing feels swankier than a nice loaf of bread and a re-imagined lasagna dish to go with it. What’s for dinner: Lasagna dip Sounds weird, but is actually a delicious and nutritious meal, great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Ingredients: 1 loaf of French bread $1.49 1/3 of a white onion $0.75 each 2 cups marinara $2.69 for jar (Classico) 1 teaspoon curry powder $3.29 for 1.62 oz (Kroger)

2 large eggs $2.99 for a dozen (Simple Truth) 2 slices Swiss cheese $1.99 for 12oz (Kroger) Salt and pepper to taste Total: $13.20, before tax Directions: Start by heating your oven to 425 degrees. Warm about a tablespoon of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add salt and pepper to the oil as it heats. Dice your onion and throw them into the pan. I like my onions a little crunchier for this dish, so I move them around a lot to keep them from overcooking. Add your curry powder and stir until the onions are a yellow color. Cook down for two minutes. Slice your bread and place on

a baking sheet. Throw these bad boys in the oven until golden. Add your marinara. You should expect a lot of sizzling and steam here. Just be sure to keep moving everything around in the pan so your sauce doesn’t burn. Crack your eggs into the mix and pour some of the hot sauce directly on top to help them cook a little faster. Wait about a minute, and then stir around the egg yolks until the eggs are fully incorporated into the mix (not including the yolks). Tear up the cheese and sprinkle it on top. Stir until melted and break down your yolks, at this point. Serve steaming hot with a couple of toasted bread slices. Bon Appetit! Audrey Weiss can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.
