The shooting on March 9, 2010, took place in room 107 of the Maintenance Building located at 2000 Tuttle Park Pl. The shooter, Nathaniel Brown, entered through a door at the loading dock and shot two of his coworkers before killing himself. The victim, Larry Wallington, passed away later that morning. The survivor, Henry Butler, was operations shift manager at the time of the shooting. He is currently taking a leave of absence from the university. W Woodruff Avenue

Change is coming to the Ohio State hiring process a year after a disgruntled custodial employee opened ÿre in the Maintenance Building, but much has stayed the same. On March 9, 2010, Nathaniel Brown brought two handguns to work and opened ÿre on two of his supervisors, Larry Wallington and Henry Butler. Wallington was killed and Butler suffered injuries. Brown then committed suicide. The Lantern reported on Sept. 21 that OSU has programs to investigate and remove employees who could be violent, but Mary Lynn Readey, associate vice president for Facilities Operations and Development said those mechanisms “simply did not get triggered.” A background check never turned up that Brown had spent time in prison for receiving stolen property. The Department of Human Resources’ former vice president Larry Lewellen said a new background check policy is expected to be implemented effective April 1 of this

OSU athletes prove blood is thicker than pool water DANNY HICKS Lantern reporter hicks.361@osu.edu

Ohio State synchronized swimmer Meghan Kinney didn’t think it was serious when she experienced pain in her knee. Doctors told her otherwise. “I had been training on national team in California for six months and I noticed this pain in my knee,” Kinney said. “I was expecting to hear maybe I needed surgery … instead they sat me down and told me they found a tumor.” Osteosarcoma, or cancer of the bone, was causing the knee pain that Kinney had believed to be nothing more than a tear in her meniscus. “I felt like my life was in jeopardy,” Kinney said. Kinney was diagnosed Oct. 5 and left the synchronized swimming team to recover from her chemotherapy treatments and the surgery to remove the tumor in her knee. “It was complete shock. It was one of those moments they always say, ‘You never thought this could happen to you,’ it was exactly like that,” Kinney said. “I just felt right away nothing else mattered.” Doctors removed the tumor from her knee, and followed up with full body scans to make sure there were no other tumors. They did not ÿnd any. After the removal, Kinney has no cancer in her body, but is going through extensive chemotherapy to make sure the cancer never comes back. “The only cancerous tumor they found was in my knee,” Kinney said. “I am getting eight more months of chemo to prevent anything in the future, because if it came about in the ÿrst place it could come back in a while.” When word got around to other OSU athletes, the rowing team took charge to help raise money

CORY SHAFFER Lantern reporter shaffer.294@osu.edu Nearly three months after Ohio State revealed a massive security breach, students’ e-mail inboxes were targeted with a phishing attack. The e-mail, sent Sunday, had the subject heading “Urgent Security Update” and tried to lure students to enter their username and password by following a link to “re-login and resolve the issue.” The e-mail claimed it was from 8help@osu.edu, the e-mail address of OSU’s Ofÿce of Information Technology. Cathy Bindewald, director of communications in the Ofÿce of the Chief Information Ofÿcer, said this is clearly a phishing attack. “We will never ever ask anyone for their password,” she said. “If any e-mail is asking for a password, you’ll know it’s a phishing attempt.” According to buckeyesecure.osu.edu, a website that the ofÿce of the CIO manages to promote safe computing, phishing is an attempt to “steal conÿdential information by trolling for unsuspecting

victims through e-mails and sending them to fake websites, where they are tricked into providing personal information.” The CIO’s ofÿce has also set up an e-mail account, report-phish@osu.edu, for students to forward suspicious e-mails to be investigated, Bindewald said. If the e-mail is found to be a phishing attempt, the author of the e-mail is barred access to OSU’s webmail system. Bindewald said spammers are able to fake the return address on e-mails, which would explain why OIT’s e-mail was listed as the return address. “They’re very creative,” she said. “But if you just stop and look at it, there are a lot of clues in the messages to show that they are illegitimate.” Those clues include misspellings, the use of odd English phrases and links to other websites asking for a password. Jon Giacalone, who received the phishing e-mail, said the link in the e-mail was a “dead giveaway.” “They warn you like a million times never to respond,” said Giacalone, a third-year in evolution, ecology and organismal biology. “So I just deleted it.” If a student fails to recognize the e-mail as a scam and enters his or her personal information,

Bindewald said action should be taken promptly. “In order to protect yourself, you should immediately change your password and send the message to report-phish,” she said, adding that OIT would help the student through that process. Bindewald did not know how many students had received this e-mail. Bindewald said this attempt has no connection to the security breach OSU announced in December, in which sensitive information of nearly 760,000 current and former students, including Social Security numbers and dates of birth, was stolen. “Those are two completely unrelated things,” Bindewald said. “(A spammer) getting your username or password is not likely to lead to your identity being stolen.” The Lantern has pending open records requests that were submitted Jan. 27 for more information concerning the security breach announced in December. Because of its size, OSU is a regular target of phishing attempts, Bindewald said. “I would just say it’s a pretty regular occurrence,”

Mounir Benzegala, a graduate of the University of Tampa and member of the Al Ittihad Tripoli professional basketball team, speaks about his experience in Tripoli, Libya, when the Libyan protests began. He spoke as part of the event “Report Back From the Land of the Free,” held in the Ohio Union Friday.

Mideast protesters share memories of blood, kisses MIKE HUGHES Lantern reporter hughes.1217@osu.edu Being caught up in a revolution can certainly take a toll. “I did not get any sleep,” said Mounir Benzegala, a professional basketball player in Tripoli, Libya, who is from Ohio. “There were gunshots going all night long.” Benzegala said he remembers hiding in his basketball team’s sports complex, only a few kilometers from Libyan leader Moammar Gadhaÿ ’s estate. He said he was afraid if he left, he would be killed. Several people who witnessed the Egyptian or Libyan uprisings shared their ÿrsthand experiences with more than 100 people in the Ohio Union on Friday at an event sponsored by The Freedom Committee called “Report Back From the Land of the Free.” Despite the violence around them, the speakers said hopes for a freer homeland occupied their minds. “We are not rebels,” said Shahrazad Kablan, an English as a Second Language teacher at Mason High School in Mason, Ohio, and Libyan protest supporter. “It’s the whole country that wants to get rid of the regime.” Kablan said Gadhaÿ ’s technique on quelling the uprising could be simpliÿed. “Either I rule or you die,” Kablan said. The United Nations said that by Feb. 28, the death toll in Tripoli alone could have exceeded 1,000.

The Egyptian revolution, which began at the end of January, has resulted in more than 300 deaths and 5,000 injuries, according to The Associated Press. Both sides of the Libyan revolution are united and strong, Kablan said. “This (the Libyan revolution) will get a lot bloodier,” Kablan said. “People are choosing to die.” Mohamed Soltan, a fourth-year in economics, went to Egypt to protest. “The ideological barriers have been broken forever,” Soltan said. “I felt and tasted freedom.” Mohamed Ghany, 30, said he was not very involved in his Muslim community in Columbus until he was spiritually called to go to Egypt. Ghany and Soltan traveled to Egypt together. Ghany said Egypt’s Tahrir Square felt like a war zone. He said Egypt as a whole felt sad, but this could change. “There’s the wound that’s been bleeding for 30 years,” Soltan said. “And now it’s nothing.” The unity and kindness of the Egyptian people was unmatched, Soltan said. “You bumped into someone and they kissed your cheek,” Soltan said. “The people made the experience worth it.” Ghany recreated a picture of a beautiful 15-yearold girl he saw dead in the street, bludgeoned with a rock. Soltan remembered running through the streets, crying out in the name of freedom, proud to be an Egyptian. Soltan said he prayed and never felt closer to God.

Shooting from 1A

Police chief says OSU Police prepared for future events year and that current employees who have prior convictions have been screened for crimes committed. The new hiring policy is in response to a review conducted after last winter’s shootings. “With regard to hiring practices we are tightening our background checking policy and streamlining the process to ensure we have a consistent process across the university,” Lewellen said. The policy changes include being able to conduct background checks on all positions including part-time employees and vendors. Part of OSU’s employee screening involves a Social Security number trace, an extensive criminal records search and a national sexual offender registry search. Currently, faculty, staff, graduate associates and student employees are not required to self-disclose post-employment criminal records. After the new policy’s implementation, they will have to do so within three days of the conviction. Also, anyone caught not addressing convictions, either current or prior, might be deemed ineligible for employment at the university. Lewellen also said having a prior felony on your record, like Brown had, does not initially bar employment from OSU. The shootings also affected OSU’s crisis response teams. Each crisis response team has members from several departments on campus, ranging from counselors to lawyers to police. The

teams deal with situations ranging from helping a student cope with a family death to responding to threatening situations. Ernesto Escoto, a member of Ohio State’s crisis response network and associate director of clinical services, said OSU has eight crisis teams set up to help distressed individuals before reaching a tragic level. “What we probably learned from the crisis last year was that we needed to respect our collaboration with other ofÿces,” Escoto said. “(We’ve learned) the importance to keep each other in the loop and abreast of any particular crises that have taken place.” One way communication throughout the campus has strengthened is through “9-1-1 folders” that the counseling and consultation department distributed to faculty and staff. The folders include what to look for in distressed individuals and what to do about it. The OSU Police force has also been proactive concerning campus safety. Ofÿcer Anna Stephenson is part of a safety program that is offered to any group that wants to know how to deal with distressed individuals. This is a program that has been available for several years. But in terms of security, OSU Police is satisÿed with its performance. “I have made no changes in police operations because of (last year’s shootings),” OSU Police Chief Paul Denton told The Lantern in late January. Denton said the campus police responded appropriately to the situation when it occurred and are adequately prepared to respond to police-related instances that might occur in the future.

to return to the pool after recovery for her. The effort became known as Team Meghan and has been a collective effort of multiple teams across campus to raise money for Kinney. “I think it’s just really cool to see the Buckeye family, especially in athletics, just coming together to support one of their fellow Buckeyes,” said Monica Finnigan, a senior synchronized swimmer. “Some people don’t even know Meghan. Nobody on the rowing team knew Meghan before they started this fundraiser.” Those involved in the effort, which has been going on for nearly two months, set the goal to raise $10,000. The money will be used to help Kinney with medical expenses throughout her ÿght with osteosarcoma. “I want to do this,” said freshman synchronized swimmer Julia Gaylard. “It’s not something that we just needed a few people to do this. I want to help her family and help her because she’s a Buckeye and one of us.”

Phishing attempts

Team Meghan has raised nearly $4,500 for Kinney from selling wristbands, including $1,925 that was raised during the men’s hockey games on Feb. 18 and 19. The wristbands, which are teal and have “Support TeamMeghan.com” written on them, have no set price. Whatever the amount of the donation, the supporter receives a wristband in return. “We can talk about how Buckeyes are there for each other, but it’s happening. It’s so powerful to see. And the other teams have been huge in helping. It’s so meaningful,” said Katherine Greene, a junior synchronized swimmer. “It’s been so incredible to see that.” Kinney’s teammates said she has impacted the team and holds a place in their hearts, and helping to raise money and support her in her ÿght with cancer was something that they were more than happy to do. “Meghan is so dear to my heart, that I wouldn’t do this for just anybody. The fact that she is such a close friend, I feel very privileged to be able to help her,” Greene said. “I just feel so happy to do this for her. I really feel so blessed.”

Other teams involved in Team Meghan, whether through donating money or volunteering time, are fencing, men’s swimming and diving, men’s hockey, men’s track, women’s volleyball and men’s golf. Kinney said she is grateful that so many people, most of whom did not know her before Team Meghan, are willing to help her. “It means the world to me,” Kinney said. “The rowing team started selling these bands, before I knew it the whole team was involved in this fundraising effort for me.” Kinney said the hardest part for her has been not having control in her own life because of the cancer. “I feel like something’s been taken away from me,” she said. Kinney has hopes to return to the pool when she recovers from the surgery, which also included a knee replacement, and her treatment. “Swimming, it’s my passion, it’s my second home, being in the water,” Kinney said. “As soon as I can I’ll be back in the water.”

To combat those international spammers, Bindewald said OSU has contracted with international security organizations that search for potential scams and inform OIT of the suspicious activity. Joey Hribar, a third-year in biology, said he always ignores e-mails asking for his passwords. “When I was in Taylor Tower, someone on

my ° oor got phished,” he said. “They had all these programs warning us about sending your dot number, so I just ignore them.” Hribar said, even after the breach and continued phishing attempts, he isn’t losing any sleep. “I don’t really think about it too much,” he said.

OSU to compete with moonbuggies LARRY BAUMAN Lantern reporter bauman.7@osu.edu When NASA astronauts David Scott and Jim Irwin landed on the moon and the ÿrst lunar vehicle roamed its surface, the moonbuggy was born. More than 40 years later, in Huntsville, Ala., 84 teams of young engineers will compete in the 18th Annual Great Moonbuggy Race on April 1 and 2. This year, Ohio State students will compete against collegiate competitors from around the world in the race, looking to improve their fourth-place ÿnish from last year. Out of 35 schools, University of Puerto Rico Humacao won the 2010 competition, followed by The University of Utah and Rhode Island School of Design. For the race, students must design a moonbuggy that addresses engineering problems similar to those the original

moonbuggy team faced, according to the race’s website. Each moonbuggy is humanpowered and carries two people, a man and a woman, across a half-mile track. The NASA-created course features simulated craters, rocks, lava ridges, inclines and lunar soil. The obstacles change from year to year to keep returning competitors from having an advantage. Student teams of six members are responsible for building a buggy. Faculty are allowed to give advice, but the students must design and build the buggy. According to the race’s website, prizes will be awarded to the six registered team members on the winning three teams. Additional awards are the Featherweight Award (replaces Most Unique), Most Improved, Rookie Award, System Safety Award and Design Competition, awarded to the team with the best technical approach to

solving the engineering problem of navigating the lunar surface. Kristen Hammer, a fourth-year in welding engineering and president of OSU’s moonbuggy team, said OSU has an advantage in the competition since there’s no other welding engineering program at the collegiate level in the country. OSU intends to enter two moonbuggies in this year’s competition. “One team will be driving last year’s steel buggy and one will be driving this year’s titanium buggy,” Hammer said. “The designs are pretty much the same. There’s a little bit different steering that we’re reworking on both buggies, and the suspension will be a little bit different on the newer buggy.” Dorian Matthews, a fourthyear in welding engineering, said the reason for using a titanium buggy rather than steel is weight. “One of the areas we’re really looking to make strides in this year is weight,” Matthews said.

“Light buggies go faster and it really adds to your score to take the pounds off, so that’s really what we’re looking to change this year.” But with the lighter buggy comes new challenges. “(Titanium)’s extremely hard to weld. So being a welding program, we knew that going into it,” said Erik Birkinbine, a second-year in welding engineering. “Any effort you put towards welding it you have to be extremely careful not to contaminate it or else you can get a bad weld.” Hammer, however, said she was unsure if the titanium buggy would be ready for competition. Both of OSU’s buggies feature one person sitting behind the other, instead of side to side. They are also both four-wheel buggies as opposed to a threewheel design that some teams use. Hammer said another signature for OSU’s buggies are that they use wide tires because they have less slippage in areas of the course covered by sand compared to several competitor’s thin tires. OSU will compete against Youngstown State as the only other Ohio school in the collegiate level. Lima Senior High School is the state’s only representative this year in the high school division. NASA representatives were unavailable for comment.

sports Honors from 8A

Purdue coach Matt Painter was named Big Ten Coach of the Year for the second consecutive season selection, and was named the Big Ten’s Player of the Week on Feb. 28. Johnson wasn’t the only Boilermaker to beat out a Buckeye for an award, as Purdue coach Matt Painter was chosen as the Big Ten’s Coach of the Year. The Buckeyes, however, didn’t walk away emptyhanded, as Sullinger was named the conference’s Freshman of the Year, and freshman point guard Aaron Craft was named the Big Ten’s Sixth Man of the Year. Craft downplayed the individual significance of the award. “I am fortunate to play on a team full of incredibly talented players,” Craft said in a press release. “I am grateful to have had the opportunity to contribute this season.” Sullinger echoed the humbleness of his classmate’s reaction. “I was honestly surprised to hear I was named Freshman of the Year,” Sullinger said in the press release. “There are a lot of talented freshmen in the Big Ten.”

Besides their individual awards, Sullinger was named to the All-Big Ten first team, and Craft was named to the All-Defensive team. Both freshmen were also named to the All-Freshman team. Other Buckeyes honored Monday include fifthyear senior forward David Lighty, who was named to the All-Big Ten second team and All-Defensive team; junior guard William Buford, who was selected to the All-Big Ten second team; senior guard Jon Diebler, who was named to the All-Big Ten third team; and senior center Dallas Lauderdale, who was named the Buckeyes’ Big Ten Sportsmanship award honoree. “We are fortunate to play in a tremendous league with outstanding players,” Matta said in the press release. “To have five of our top six players recognized with postseason honors is a tribute to their hard work.” Big Ten action resumes Thursday with the Big Ten Tournament in Indianapolis.

Comics aim not to get stood up JAMES GARCIA Senior Lantern reporter garcia.299@osu.edu “And the next comedian to the stage is … where’s our next comedian?” A stream of varying curse words run through my mind as I raise my hand like a kindergartner and make my way to the stage. All I can think is how I shouldn’t have eaten those wings and how I’m not drunk enough for something like this. I’m at Scarlet and Grey’s open mic stand-up night and this is my ÿrst time being on stage by myself with jokes I’m not even sure are funny. I’ve seen grown men come up on this stage, forget what they were going to say, and mumble something generic like, “So, the weird thing about sex is… um,” shake violently, scared out of their minds, looking like they are going to cry. Besides the solitary microphone stand, I will be the only thing on the stage. This is it, I tell myself, the moment of truth: Do I have what it takes to be funny? “James Garcia everyone.” Applause. I shake his hand when we slide past each other as I climb onstage. Every eye is on me and every second is dragging painfully. I grab the microphone and it feels heavier than I expected. The stage lights are bright and warm, but most frightening are the 50 people all staring at me, waiting for me to entertain them with my wit. I am aware of every thunderous heartbeat in my chest and every surge of blood through my veins. “Um… Hi,” I say shakily into the microphone. My voice is loud and it sends goosebumps up and down my arms. “I don’t have friends,” I say. At this I can tell the crowd isn’t sure whether to laugh or whether I’m being serious — in which case it would be sad and awkward, an awful combination for a stand-up joke. There are a few chuckles though — out of pity, maybe. “It’s not because I’m awkward. It’s not because I’m nervous. And it’s deÿnitely not because I eat people. It’s because I divulge way too much information to people when I ÿrst meet them,” I say. “So, I guess that is kind of awkward.” Then actual laughter. Thank God. Cannibalism jokes work apparently. Who knew? Here’s the thing about telling jokes, and remember this is coming from a complete amateur: You’ve got to not only come up with something unique and creative, but also deliver it with conÿdence. I’ve seen people with excellent jokes ruin their set because they didn’t deliver with character. I’ve seen classic racist, sexist and druggy jokes kill, simply because they were told with ÿnesse. But I refuse to tell a joke that reinforces the stereotypes of minorities, involves any kind of genitalia reference, or a story about airline food. But you should write jokes based on what you know. So, I tell jokes about being an awkward person, naturally.

James Garcia, a fourth-year in journalism, works the mic at Scarlet and Grey’s open mic stand-up night. “Do penguins have knees?” I ask. Pause. Let it sink in. And there it is: laughter. It feels good, but I can’t acknowledge the fact I just told a funny; it’s not in good form. It makes comedians seem pompous, like they know they’re funny. Just keep moving the jokes along. “I consider being awkward an art form. In fact, I think I’m the only person who can out-awkward people with a God-given right to be awkward — like homeless people,” I say. “Are there any homeless people here, tonight?” I ask. An attractive and obviously not homeless girl up front says, “Wooo!” I point at her and say, “Congratulations, you have a God-given right to be awkward.” Then I continue, “A homeless man approached me the other day and asked me for change. I said no, but he wished me a safe trip home anyway. And I said, ‘You too!’” Pause for effect. “Yes, that’s right, I actually told a homeless man to have a safe trip home … awkward.” This went on for about ÿve minutes and then I was done with my routine. And just as suddenly as it had begun, it was over with. Overall, I wasn’t a crack up — didn’t win the $10 bar tab for the night — but I didn’t wet myself either. So, that’s something, right? Be funny or get off the stage. The comedy world can be a savage one.

The Lantern applies to be Charlie Sheen’s #TigerBloodIntern

Monday was another tumultuous day for Charlie Sheen. The actor made waves by announcing an internship opportunity to be his Social Media Intern, and then Warner Brothers announced Sheen’s ÿring from the show “Two and A Half Men.” Sheen starred on the show since its debut in 2003. According to Entertainment Weekly, Sheen was the highest paid actor on television, making $1.8 million an episode. The relationship went downhill last week. “After careful consideration, Warner Bros. Television has terminated Charlie Sheen’s services on ‘Two and a Half Men’ effective immediately,” the company said in a statement. Sheen did not seem concerned by the announcement. “This is very good news,” he told TMZ.com. “They continue to be in breach, like so many whales.” The actor also referred to his former employers as a “warlock” existing in a “terrestrial dimension.” Sheen issued similarly unusual quotes last week, including statements that he had “tiger’s blood” and was “bi-winning,” as opposed to being bipolar. The furor surrounding his statements led more than 1.5 million Twitter users to follow him over a period of two days. Sheen was later certiÿed by the Guinness Book of World Records as having the fastest addition of Twitter followers in a 24-hour period. His sudden popularity online inspired his announcement of the “#TigerBloodIntern” position on his Twitter page. “I’m looking to hire a #winning intern,” he wrote.

Tattoos as storytelling mechanism Major League Baseball 2K11

ARTS Columnist

TheRick Sims 3: Barnacle “Rico” Genest is Bay a Canadian white male, average height and build, who would scare the hell out of anyone walking near him in a dark alley. Why? Because he tattooed his entire body to look like the living dead, earning him the nickname “Zombie Boy.” Though he literally looks like he’s just risen from a grave, there’s something oddly comforting about Genest. It could be his overall “I don’t give a damn” attitude or because he doesn’t look like a VANESSA SPATES human being anymore. spates.3@osu.edu He’s claimed to have spent $16,000 on tattoos alone and works in sideshows in various circuses in Montreal. “They’re about the human body as a decomposing corpse — the art Cell: Conviction of aSplinter rotting cadaver. It’s also a (Xbox tribute 360) to horror movies, which I love,” Genest said in an interview with Bizarre magazine. Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West (PC) My guess is Genest is simultaneously giving reason for his madness and mocking those who will look too deep for some higher meaning in Music for Everyone (Wii) his body modiÿcations. Some of the things he said in the interview can lead to questions

about his mental stability, but take one look at him and you can see he doesn’t think like the average human being. He said as a kid he wanted to grow up to be a zombie, so this was the closest he could get to becoming one without actually being dead. How’s that for ambition? Genest is a self-described “punk” who used to live in the streets of Montreal before “Haus of Gaga” (the creative and design team for Lady Gaga) creative director Nicola Formichetti discovered him. Genest’s popularity spiked in the last few months because he was picked by Formichetti to be a model in the latest Thierry Mugler (a fashion line for which Formichetti is also creative director) shows. Genest was also in Lady Gaga’s latest video “Born This Way,” where he represented the “evil side” of humanity. Gaga’s makeup allowed her to look exactly like him. While Genest’s unique body makes waves across the world, movies like “Beastly” are popping up, which is a modern-day twist on an old Disney classic “Beauty and the Beast.” Instead of fur, though, the “beast” is covered in scars and tattoos, which are meant to make him look hideous to people. A March 2 article in The Lantern had some of Ohio State’s wrestlers discussing the meaning behind their tattoos and why they got them. Some cited their families for inspiration; others said they thought that tattoos looked “tough.” Genest said he wants to represent the decay of human society. Different strokes and all.

Rick Genest claims to have spent $16,000 on his tattoos, which earned him the title ‘Zombie Boy.’ When someone wants to tell a story with their body, I have a lot of respect for them. He is pushing the limits of human imagination and the perception of beauty. You can call him a freak. He’s heard it before and he doesn’t care.

Sullinger gets 1st team, not Player of the Year Ben aXeLRod Senior Lantern reporter axelrod.17@osu.edu Two days after missing out on the opportunity to earn a share of the Big Ten title, Purdue senior forward JaJuan Johnson learned he won’t walk away from this season empty-handed, as he was named the Big Ten Player of the Year for the 2010–11 season. Johnson beat out Ohio State freshman forward Jared Sullinger, who appeared to have a lock on the award for the first three months of the season before seeing stat lines decline in February. Sullinger won four Big Ten Player of the Week awards this season. Johnson finished the regular season as the Big Ten’s leader in scoring and blocks, with averages of 20.5 points and 2.4 blocks per game. He was also the conference’s No. 4 leader in rebounds, pulling down 8.1 per game. A native of Indianapolis, Johnson’s top scoring performance — 31 points — came in Purdue’s Dec. 18 win against Indiana State; however, his best all-around performance came in the Boilermakers’ Feb. 27 win against Michigan State, when he scored 20 points and posted season highs in rebounding and blocks, with 17 and seven, respectively. In winning the award, which has been given out annually since the 1984–85 season, Johnson became the third Boilermaker to be named the Big Ten’s top player, joining Steve Schefﬂer (1989–90) and Glenn Robinson (1993–94). Besides winning the Big Ten Player of the Year award, Johnson was an All-Big Ten first-team

After victory, Buckeyes remain No. 1; Badgers fall to No. 13 BLaKe WILLIams Senior Lantern reporter williams.3012@osu.edu With victories against Penn State and then-No. 10 Wisconsin last week by an average of almost 25 points, the Ohio State men’s basketball team retained its No. 1 ranking in both the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today Coaches polls. A catalyst in both wins for the top-ranked

Buckeyes, senior guard Jon Diebler earned Big Ten Player of the Week honors after averaging 28.5 points per game last week and shooting 17-for-20 from 3-point territory. The Buckeyes are followed in both polls by No. 2 Kansas, whose 29-2 record is identical to OSU’s. The Buckeyes received 52 of 65 first-place votes in the AP poll and 25 of 31 in the Coaches poll. The Jayhawks secured all other first-place votes. After Kansas come two Big East squads, No. 3 Pittsburgh and No. 4 Notre Dame. A four-game winning streak, including last week’s victories

against then-No. 19 Villanova and then-No. 16 Connecticut, has propelled the Fighting Irish to their highest ranking this season. Purdue and Wisconsin, the only two teams to beat OSU this year, remain the only other Big Ten teams in either set of rankings. Purdue dropped to No. 9 after a loss to unranked Iowa, and Wisconsin fell to No. 13 after its loss in Columbus. The Buckeyes now await the Big Ten Tournament and a matchup with either Minnesota or Northwestern at noon on Friday.

Intense workouts might cause players to lose their ‘cookies’ CHRIs BIdeRman Senior Lantern reporter biderman.1@osu.edu To Sugar Bowl champions, it’s never too early for football. Spring practice for the Ohio State football team kicked off Monday with players going through conditioning drills starting at 6 a.m. all week, but quarterback Terrelle Pryor was limited while sporting a protective boot as he recovers from surgery on his right foot. Director of football performance Eric Lichter said the early morning practices are meant to cap off what he said was an impressive winter conditioning program for the Buckeyes. Winter training is meant to focus on individual performances in areas such as bench press, broad jump and vertical jump. Mandatory workouts began at the end of January, Lichter said, three weeks after the 31-26 Sugar Bowl win against Arkansas. The program lasted four weeks, concluding with the coaching and training staffs testing the players individually to measure their improvement in those areas. Monday’s practice started drills that are meant to unify the players. “This is more of the team coming together and working on team togetherness and team toughness and kind of building that bond that gets you through tough times,” Lichter said. Now, the team is experiencing the type of conditioning rigors that require trash cans on the field,

just in case any of the players lose their “cookies,” an energetic Tressel said as Monday’s practice concluded. Lichter said he was excited about the performances of the new freshmen recruits who have come to work with the team early. Tight end Jeff Heuerman, safety Jeremy Cash, linebacker Ryan Shazier, defensive tackle Joel Hale and quarterback Braxton Miller enrolled at OSU for Winter Quarter to get a head start on preparing for another BCS run next fall. “Really, really impressed with those guys,” Lichter said, “especially considering they’re really seniors in high school and they’re up here competing … hanging with our guys, our veterans.” Former Buckeye defensive lineman Cameron Heyward has been at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center working out and has been a welcomed veteran voice to a team that’s much younger than last year’s squad. “It was good to have Cam around,” Lichter said. “He’s a part of what I consider the best senior class we’ve had here. … Cam will just be a great leader and someone to look to for these young D-linemen and everyone on the team.” Heyward is preparing to take part in OSU’s pro day with former linebacker Brian Rolle, wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher, cornerback Chimdi Chekwa, guard Justin Boren, defensive back Jermale Hines, linebacker Ross Homan, running back Brandon Saine and cornerback Devon Torrence. NFL scouts will be on hand to evaluate the outgoing Buckeyes on Friday at the WHAC. Lichter expects representatives from all 32 NFL teams to be there.
