REAGAN TOKES TRIAL
Final witness testifies as defense attempts to save Golsby’s life SUMMER CARTWRIGHT Campus Editor cartwright.117@osu.edu The life of Brian Golsby continued to be analyzed through a psychological point of view Monday in court as his defense team and its final witness described his living conditions as a youth; the making of the murderer. Golsby’s life filled of poverty, abuse and mental health issues was a “recipe for disaster,” according to Bob Stinson, a clinical and forensic psychologist who met with Golsby three times in jail after his Feb. 11, 2017 arrest. That disaster, apparently, was the kidnapping, rape and murder of Ohio State student Reagan Tokes. Stinson, the final defense witness in the sentencing phase of trial, described Golsby’s upbringing as being “marked by multi-generational family dysfunction and violence.” According to 2,000 pages of documents containing wellness checks, psychological evaluations and Franklin County Children Services records he reviewed, Stinson said Golsby’s family was
filled with alcoholism, drug abuse and physical violence. But why do these factors matter in this case? This was the question Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien aggressively and repeatedly asked throughout his cross-examination of Stinson. O’Brien asked, searching for some sort of clarity, “Why did [Golsby] shoot Reagan Tokes on February 8th?” After all, he said, no one else in Golsby’s “dysfunctional family tree” committed such a crime. Stinson said Golsby raped upward of 10 people throughout his adolescent life, and forced a woman to perform fellatio as an adult. But he didn’t kill those people, O’Brien said, so why did he kill Tokes? What factor led to this aggravated murder? Or even the rape and robbery? The prosecution hounded for these answers, asking Stinson if during his three visits, which collectively amounted to a little less than five hours with Golsby, if he ever asked the man guilty of murder why he did it.

The University District Organization’s plan aims to create two new projects in what will be known as the “University Arts District” featuring dumpster murals and other art features in the areas surrounding campus.
An art-infused campus University District plan intends to bring art, appreciation to area KAYLIN HYNES Senior Lantern reporter hynes.39@osu.edu To many, a dumpster only serves one purpose. But in the University District Organization’s new plan, it is a blank canvas for expression. The University District Arts and Character Plan is an outline of community-driven ideas for the future of public art near Ohio State’s campus. It also serves as a framework to highlight several concepts for local artists. “The plan is helpful, and it
kind of focuses everybody’s thoughts around a framework of ideas. Whether these ideas kind of morph into something else, it at least gives us a starting point,” said Matthew Hansen, UDO’s executive director. UDO is a nonprofit group that works to improve community engagement, and make the area a “more exciting and interesting” place to live, according to its website. After two years of planning, the organization is in the process of installing two different projects — dumpster murals and a Music
Trail. The idea to use dumpsters as art canvases came after the organization noticed a large amount of graffiti across the disposal sites. “[Other cities] have seen that once [art] gets installed on the surface of the dumpster then tagging kind of goes away because it’s not as an attractive object to display their name anymore,” Hansen said. About two-thirds of music venues in Columbus are located in the University District, which led to the evolution of the Music Trial ARTS DISTRICT CONTINUES ON 2
No one likes getting duped. Feeling like a fool is almost as bad as having your identity stolen. Ohio State figures it is better to have a few students get duped by its educational, faux phishing emails than to have their information stolen by actual hackers. In an effort to educate students on the threat phishing emails pose, the IT Risk management office started a campaign Jan. 31 that sent fake, university-produced phishing emails from phony, sometimes humorous, email addresses to see how many students fell for the emails. Phishing emails are a strategy used by hackers who send emails from what appears to be a trusted entity, such as Ohio State, in an attempt to gather sensitive information from the recipient. The sensitive information can range from usernames and passwords to Social Security numbers and bank information — all of which Ohio State possesses for tens of thousands of students and staff. Ohio State might have more information on individuals associated with the university than virtually any other entity — even
banks. “For the individual student, your identity is so critical,” said Gary Clark, Ohio State’s information risk management director. “It’s really the loss of identity is what’s driving us to educate our students. It’s privacy, it’s identity, it’s who you are. Once the attacker has that information, they can use that against you.” Becky Mayse, a security analyst lead in the IT risk management office, said phishing emails are the No.1 cause of data breaches, adding that the widespread Target data breach that released sensitive bank information of thousands of customers in 2013 was caused by phishing emails. Of the thousands of emails sent to all students that contained unverified links meant to trick recipients, almost 19 percent were clicked on, Mayse said, a significant rate that shows firsthand the threat phishing emails pose to the Ohio State community. Neither Mayse nor Clark said how many students clicked on the emails, noting the 19 percent does not account for students who might have clicked on links from more than one email. But with almost 60,000 undergraduate students on the Columbus campus alone, it’s safe to say PHISHING CONTINUES ON 3

More than a cooking class: EFNEP works to provide nutritional education LYDIA GINGERICH Lantern reporter gingerich.50@osu.edu When Heather told her teacher she was going to complete the two-month-long nutrition course, the mentor was skeptical — Heather had tried and failed two times before. But now she had motivation: She wanted visitation rights to her children. Two months later, Robin Adams awarded Heather with a certificate for completing the Expanded Food and Nutrition Education Program from Ohio State. After showing the certificate to her family court judge in hopes of getting temporary visitation rights, Heather was granted full custody of her children. EFNEP, a nationwide and government-funded nutrition program, provides free classes for low-income adults and children, covering topics such as portion size, meal planning and staying physically active. “It really allows the participant to learn the different food groups and learn about food safety for the different [participants],” said Maria Carmen Lambea, EFNEP’s director for Ohio. She said every class is an interactive experience so students “can engage, discuss, ask questions and actually apply the skills that they learn there.” EFNEP trains paraprofessionals (those without a college degree) like Adams over 14 weeks for the purpose of disbursing that knowledge into their own counties to
address community issues in a classroom setting. At the end of each lesson, students are given a tool to help them practice skills they have learned. For example, students receive a meat thermometer the day they learn about safe minimum cooking temperatures. “We are not just talking to you and telling you that you need to make sure your stuff is food safe, but we actually give you the tools to do the things that you are being asked to do,” said Zoe Fawcett, an EFNEP research associate. Many Ohio State students are unable to work with EFNEP because most courses take place in other counties. But Lambea said because there are opportunities for students to help out during the summer, they should at least know of the program. “Maybe they are from Ohio and have family that could benefit from the program, too,” Fawcett said. Last year, the EFNEP program had almost 4,000 adult participants in 20 counties across Ohio. The program is also taught in schools with at least 50 percent of the students on free or reduced lunch plans. About 9,000 young people went through the program in the state last year. Adams said she loves imparting valuable information to those who need it most. “As a society, I think we should be engaging with those people who genuinely need help. I think we should be sharing whatever information we can with those who are in need,” she said.

project. Similar to programs like the Columbus Beer Trail and Coffee Trail, the Music Trail would feature a passport that would be stamped at different venues. Participants would earn a reward, such as a T-shirt, after completing the trail. Hansen said the group is working on a pilot that could launch this spring. These two projects are part of a larger plan that began in April 2016 when several community members went to UDO for conversation about better representing the arts culture in the community after noticing its strong presence in the University District. “We’ve got the Wexner Center; we’ve got artists that live in the neighborhood; but there was no study or understanding on how that impact has bettered the University District as a whole. Has it influenced our culture in the area?” Hansen said. “It was seen as a lost opportunity since we had so many artists live in the neighborhood and arts organizations that have formed.” Hansen said UDO sought help from the community — including representatives from neighborhood groups, businesses, Undergraduate Student Government and the Wexner Center for the Arts — by holding six months of workshops to figure out what the public wanted to see in the district. A lot of the public’s feedback relayed the same message: Residents don’t want flashy, expensive art pieces, and they like the idea of temporary art. One example of temporary art is the installation at East 14th Avenue and High Street that includes a mural, plants, adirondack chairs and a steel “High Street” sign. It will be up for only the next couple
of years until construction on the intersection begins. “We saw an opportunity to improve that plaza area there and make it a little bit more friendly so that people would stop and hang out in the area for a little bit, maybe get some coffee and sit in the sun when it’s a nice day,” Hansen said. Though the entirety of the charter plan is at this time mostly conceptual, Hansen said highlighting local history is a specific area of focus. For example, he said a “prescriptive” idea is to show the history of The Great Diavolo — a circus performer who lived in the Old North during the 20th century and rose to fame as a daredevil. Hansen said a mural would be created to commemorate Diavolo’s circus poster, complete with bike sculptures to give the illusion of passers-by riding alongside him. Other ideas outlined in the plan include an interactive art piece, sculptures and murals in parks, a permanent High Street sign, wayfinding signs, soapboxes for public speaking and an adult playground. Another recommendation is to incorporate student and local artists in order to provide opportunities for them to showcase their art. “We’ve got tons of talented students that will benefit from these public art projects. We’re going to pay all of our artists so it’s not just a free gig, and that’s really important to us because we know that art is a business to a lot of people and we want to support that,” Hansen said. With these changes, the University District could become “the street art district of Columbus,” Hansen said, adding this plan will transform the area into a cooler, collective place to live.

TOKES TRIAL FROM 1
Stinson’s answer was no, he did not ask Golsby why, because his job, he said, was to focus on the life that led up to Feb. 8, 2017. Stinson said he viewed Golsby as guilty from the very beginning, which is why he said he did not feel the need to ask why. While the defense seemed to use Golsby’s history as a reason for him murdering a 21-year-old woman who gave him everything he asked for in the hours he held her captive, Stinson said Golsby’s mental health does not mean he should not be held responsible for what he did. “I’m not here to tell everyone he didn’t have a choice in what he did,” Stinson said. One of those choices could have easily been to spare Tokes’ life, O’Brien said, adding that after killing her, GPS data collected from Golsby’s ankle monitor tracked him to the place in which she was abducted. “He could have dropped her off,” O’Brien said. But to Stinson, being held responsible seemed to mean not the death penalty, but instead being in a jail with structure, proper medication and trauma care. Different facets of Golsby’s mental health were discussed throughout Stinson’s testimony. Golsby has a history of depression, ADHD and has said — though not consistently in psychological evaluations over time — that he has heard voices. Similar to his interview with the Grove City Division of Po-
lice the day he was arrested for killing Tokes, Golsby’s narrative seemed to change depending on when he was asked certain questions pertaining to abuse at home, substance use and psychological trauma.
“I’m not here to tell everyone he didn’t have a choice in what he did.” Bob Stinson Clinical and forensic psychologist
During a slideshow presentation in which traumatic factors in Golsby’s life were numbered one through 15 (3 - a history of drug and alcohol abuse, 4 - an abusive mother, 6 - living in poverty), the man who has consistently appeared stoic throughout the trial grew restless. He moved his chair when his mother, Stephanie, was discussed, specifically her substance use and abusive parenting. He cocked his head to the right looking at the three rows of audience sitting adjacent to the jury as the slide went from one number to the next, explaining trauma that Stinson said made Golsby the murderer he is today, the “perfect recipe for disaster.” He yawned and scratched his face when the PowerPoint turned to an animated slide that showed a picture of a ball (Golsby) headed down a slanted path of
disaster, unblocked by a square (a support system) that had been removed with the click of a remote. Golsby’s depression and life without a father figure were major points of focus throughout the testimony. This need for a father, Stinson said, led Golsby to try to kill himself when he was a teenager. Living with an abusive mother led him to witness violence he would soon reciprocate, Stinson said, which could be reason for why he wielded a knife and threatened his mother at one point as a child. Being raped at 12 or 13 years old could lead to an understanding of why he commited similar acts throughout his life, Stinson said. The jury will begin its deliberations Tuesday on whether Golsby will face the death penalty; life in prison without the possibility of parole; life in prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years; or life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years. The narrative of Golsby, his upbringing and his crimes might never be clear. He is proven to be an unreliable source of information, which could mean there might never be an answer to the question O’Brien, the Tokes family and Tokes’ friends and college community long to learn: Why?

more than 10,000 of them fell for a phishing email sent by the university. When the link was clicked, it led email users to an informational screen set up by IT Risk management that highlighted the risks of phony emails and ways to spot them. Subject lines ranging from student-employee information updates to changes in financial aid coverage can fool even vigilant students. Mayse said the goal of the emails is to educate students, not trick them. She said it shows them the risks associated with clicking on untrustworthy links from unverified senders. “We actually frequently see phishing emails coming into our environment being reported that are far more sophisticated as an attack than what we send,” Mayse said. “Our phishing emails are relatively easy to spot and are designed to help the user identify how to spot these emails.” Clark was unable to say how many students have had their identities stolen from phishing emails, but did say the emails his

REVIEW ‘Love, Simon’ is a coming-of-age, must-see film this season. | ONLINE GHEZAL BARGHOUTY Arts & Life Editor barghouty.5@osu.edu Empathetic, creative, dynamic, witty and learning –– these are the five words High Street Style editor-in-chief Marisa Dzwonczyk chose to describe herself. A third-year in international business with a minor in fashion and retail studies, Dzwonczyk applied to Ohio State as a psychology major with the intention of going to law school, but she quickly realized that following her longtime passion was more important. “I’ve always been so in love with fashion,” Dzwonczyk said. “As a kid, I remember playing with dolls. I was super into dolls and all their clothes and everything, and I would always set it up so that my Polly Pockets were running a fashion design company, and I would set up little offices for them.” In 2016, Dzwonczyk joined Fashion Forward, which is now known as the Business of Retail Association, where she met Tina Lorek, creator of O-Style –– a student organization with a fashion blog created by and for students. After being asked to write for the blog, Dzwonczyk was eventually asked to take over for Lorek. “Writing about fashion was never something that I super considered, but once I started doing

In one of her latest posts, Dzwonczyk wrote a recap of fashion month — a four-week period containing four of the largest fashion shows in the world — but instead of a review, she summarized every designer collection by what each woman from “Sex and the City” would be wearing from brands such as Tom Ford, Gucci and Marc Jacobs. “It’s always about fashion, but I always try to make it funny and connect it to what somebody in college could enjoy reading,” she said. “I don’t want it to be too highbrow. I’m not buying thousand-dollar clothes. A big part of my style is finding designer looks for an affordable price and still looking good and still looking like it’s expensive.” As a college student, Dzwonczyk practices what she preaches by sourcing her fashion from affordable outlets. Dzwonczyk’s personal style is always changing depending on her mood or the occasion. Some of her major influences include street style from models like BelDZWONCZYK CONTINUES ON 5

Alumnus transitions to the silver screen ASHLEY DIGGINS Lantern reporter diggins.10@osu.edu Brad Kuhlman has produced content for major television networks like the Discovery Channel and Travel Channel, as well as the “Jerry Springer Show,” “Judge Judy” and MTV since graduating from Ohio State in 1991. Now, the alumnus is adding a self-directed independent documentary to his resume.
“I feel like it was a relatable story to a lot of people who reach a certain age.” Brad Kuhlman 1991 Ohio State graduate
In 2016, Kuhlman met old friend Lou Dimaggio for lunch, and Dimaggio shared details about leaving his past life as a rising star in stand up comedy in New York City to write for television in Los Angeles and then always regretting that decision. Kuhlman said he immediately felt intrigued by the story, and so the idea behind “Where Have You Gone, Lou Dimaggio?” was born. They spent that entire year making the documentary, and in January 2017, “Where Have You Gone, Lou Dimaggio?” played in its first independent film festival, the Santa Barbara International Film Festival. This month, the film was released publicly for
purchase on iTunes and Amazon. “For years, I had wanted to make a documentary and I felt like I never really came across the right story or material that would lend itself to being a good documentary,” Kuhlman said. “Once he told me [his story], the light bulb went on for me and I said to him at that lunch that we’re going to make this movie.” Dimaggio said he didn’t think twice about it. “It was definitely one of those moments where you just say yes, because you’re like, this is an opportunity to move forward,” he said. Kuhlman said he was especially attracted to the idea because many of Dimaggio’s old colleagues from the iconic NYC comedy club “Catch A Rising Star” eventually became A-list celebrities, including Richard Belzer, Howie Mandel and Larry David. When Kuhlman and Dimaggio created the framework of the film, Kuhlman said they decided to form the story around Dimaggio seeking advice from his famous friends on how to make a comeback in the standup comedy world by interviewing them, and then following the beginning of his comeback. “I love the idea of him seeking advice from these famous comedians that thought Lou was hilarious and he was one of them [who could make it big],” Kuhlman said. “I thought there was something neat about that because as

great to get him in Columbus,” “Thousand People of Genoa” features portraits of 1,000 Genoans captured in everyday life. Sword said one of Costa’s great skills is his ability to convince anyone to sit for a picture, adding that his work does a great job of highlighting the diversity of Italian people. “This is a community. All these of people, whether they are young, old, male, female … it’s kind of a sign of our times,” Sword said. “There’s just something about how he captures these people, you feel like you’re really looking at them.” The exhibit will be split among five different locations across central Ohio, allowing for more people to experience Costa’s work. Council member Tyson said she hopes “Thousand People of Genoa” will celebrate the 62-year-long relationship between the two cities.

His pictures of Columbus faces will be displayed in Genoa in 2019. “I’m excited about ‘Thousand People of Columbus’ because I want Italy, especially Genoa, to have a better understanding of our relationship,” Tyson said. “But also, to see the diversity of individuals in Columbus … I love Columbus and I want others around the world to see the beauty of the people.”

From its inception, the fashion industry has been known for its mistreatment of women, and with movements like Time’s Up and #MeToo, these issues have come to the forefront. “Fashion is so connected and influential in culture and politics, and from everything that I have seen, the fashion industry is so vocal about those things, especially gender equality, which is really cool to me,” Dzwonczyk said. “I think that they make a lot of strides that there aren’t in other sectors because they’re not afraid to push the boundaries of what gender is and how a man and a woman can be represented in photography or in media.” In the future, Dzwonczyk sees herself working with a fashion magazine. She’s hoping this recent movement will allow her to use her platform to talk about political issues in a way that’s connected to fashion. “I don’t think fashion has had the opportunity to do that and really be respected as a voice in those issues,” she said.

MEN’S BASKETBALL FROM 8

The Buckeyes attempt to block a Chippewa shot in the first quarter of the game against Central Michigan in the second round of the NCAA tournament at St. John Arena on March 19. NCAA FROM 8
nie Mavunga couldn’t find any offense either, shooting 1-of-3 and splitting a pair of free throws. It didn’t get any better in the third quarter with Central Michigan’s onslaught continuing. Any glimmer of hope vanished when the Buckeyes were outscored 3325 in the third quarter. Central Michigan’s seven 3-pointers put the game away for good, for it maintained a 67-46 lead heading into the fourth quarter. Central Michigan held the lead
throughout the fourth quarter, even with a valiant push from the Buckeyes. Senior forward Tinara Moore’s 20 points, along with Breen’s 22 and Hudson’s 28 points were enough to sustain its lead throughout the game. Ohio State finished Mitchell’s final season as both Big Ten regular season and tournament champions, posting a 28-7 overall and 13-3 conference record.
decision, questions will emerge about who replaces the gaps left in the starting five. At shooting guard, it seems plausible that Jackson will be asked to move from his current starting spot of point guard. In his first season as the starter at the one, Jackson showed that while capable of the position, he was often prone to turnovers and ill-advised passes that probably have him better suited to play shooting guard where his ability to effectively shoot will play better. Whether or not Jackson moves, the second starting guard in the five will presumably come from either freshman Musa Jallow, incoming four-star recruit Luther Muhammad or a graduate transfer. Jallow displayed defensive prowess in his first season coming off the bench — and even started at shooting guard for a couple games. What he didn’t show was the ability to be a reliable offensive presence for the team. He averaged just 2.5 points per game in his inaugural campaign, shooting 39.2 percent from the field and 25.0 percent from 3. Similar to Jallow both in size and defensive ability, Muhammad also would enter the season expected to produce. Whether he plays in an uneven role like Jallow did in his first campaign or is viewed as a potential starter remains to be seen, but as the 77thbest prospect in the nation and the
Buckeyes’ top recruit in the class, Muhammad should be expected to contribute to the team. The one thing both Jallow and Muhammad bring to the table is size at the guard position that cannot be overcome as easily as it was in 2017-18. While the 6-foot1 Jackson and 6-foot-2 Williams often were often unable to cover taller guards, Jallow is 6-foot-5 and Muhammad is 6-foot-4, both taller even than Tate, who started at forward for Ohio State. As for the two potential forward spots that could be open, former four-star prospect Kyle Young will likely occupy one. While Jallow was often viewed as one of the go-to guard options early for Ohio State, Young never factored into the team’s season much, averaging just 8.6 minutes, 1.8 points and 1.6 rebounds per game. Young came to Ohio State with Holtmann from Butler as the 80th-best recruit in the country but never had much of a chance to show his ability, largely due to Ohio State’s depth at guard. With Tate leaving and Bates-Diop potentially departing as well, Young will presumably be counted on more than sophomore forward Andre Wesson as someone to step in and fill the void offensively. While four-star recruit Jaedon LeDee could come in and have an impact, Ohio State will retain a lot of its depth at forward, returning both Wesson brothers, soph-

omore center Micah Potter and Young. LeDee could force his way into more minutes, but likely will see a role similar to Young this season. Kaleb Wesson will provide stability at center and should be expected to continue his development. He averaged 10.9 points and 4.9 rebounds per game as a freshman and should only improve in both areas — as well as defensively — while going through his second season. It goes without saying that much of the Buckeyes’ 2018-19 success hinges on the looming decision of Bates-Diop. If he returns, Ohio State could be seen as one of the favorites to win the Big Ten. If he leaves, Ohio State will just have yet another question mark to address. Among a recruiting class that ranks 24th in the country, several returning players who showed promise this season and the possible additions of graduate transfers, Ohio State will have the talent to return to the NCAA Tournament. Now it is just up to Holtmann to show that in his second season as head coach, he can again capitalize on that talent and make sure it reaches its full potential.

SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING
MEN’S SOCCER
Ohio State success begins with Head coach John Bluem recruiting talent and personality announces retirement EDWARD SUTELAN Assistant Sports Editor sutelan.1@osu.edu

The Ohio State synchronized swimming team gathers for a cheer prior to the Zero Waste Dual Meet on Jan. 13, 2018, at Ohio State. KEVIN HARGRAVE Lantern reporter hargrave.10@osu.edu A young synchronized swimmer sent a video to Ohio State demonstrating her talents. The video was filmed in a home pool — an unusual setting for a recruiting video — but everything else seemed standard. The recruit went through three or four maneuvers encompassing her overall skillset. When the routine was completed, she swam out of the frame and re-entered in a canoe. That recruit was Asia Luke, who went on to swim at Ohio State for four years and contribute to two national championships. Ohio State head coach Holly Vargo-Brown said as soon as she saw the canoe appear, it became clear what needed to happen next. “I have to have that kid on this team,” Vargo-Brown said. Synchronized swimming is a sport of uniformity. Athletes are recognized for mirroring the actions of those around them. In the water, unity and synchronicity are necessary to succeed. But when building the most consistently dominant synchronized swimming program in the country, 30-time national champion Ohio State looks for athletes that are far from uniform. To find swimmers from around the world capable of carrying on the program’s rich tradition, Ohio State seeks athletes who display distinct personalities capable of enhancing the team community in addition to raw talent. “If everybody’s exactly the same it doesn’t work as well,” Vargo-Brown said. “It’s when they’re different and they figure it out … Those are the very best teams.” Synchronized swimming has a small talent pipeline that begins to manifest itself early on in swimmers’ careers. “The girls start young,” Vargo-Brown said. “Sometimes as young as 6 … Because it’s such a small sport you start to see some names start to hit the top soon.” Though the pipeline develops early, it becomes narrower and more refined as swimmers grow older. Players move from across the country to specific programs known for producing college and Olympic-level talent. This is where Ohio State begins to pinpoint its top recruits. “As [the athletes] get older … they will move out and train with a better program,” Vargo-Brown said. “We tend to get a lot of our athletes from those better teams.” These programs include the U.S. National Team as well as a few reputable
programs on the West Coast. Getting athletes to abandon the West Coast to swim in Ohio would be a challenge, but Ohio State has one selling point that encourages the athletes to overlook distance and dreary weather: success. No other team can boast a resume as strong as Ohio State: 30 national titles, 14 Olympians and 110 All-Americans. “Truthfully because [the championship banner] says 30 national championships over there a lot of times people will come to us,” Vargo-Brown said. Since Ohio State does not struggle to find athletes that want to compete for the team,the decision often comes down to what types of young women the team believes can foster an environment of success. There’s no single quality that marks a potential contributor to the team’s winning culture, yet Vargo-Brown cited the canoe video as a time when she knew immediately that a potential recruit demonstrated the type of character the team wants in its athletes. “Original, thinker outside the box, confident … I always refer back to [Luke] as a person that ended up being a great Buckeye,” said Vargo-Brown, who is in fourth season as head coach and competed for the Buckeyes from 1981 to 1984. To the athletes, the team’s dedication to creating a diverse, supportive group of personalities is as important as its reputation. “I noticed [the supportiveness] on my recruit trip,” senior Monica Velazquez-Stiak said. “Just watching how they practiced and worked together was really inspiring to me and really drew me to the program.” The team’s history of success and the culture it strives to cultivate are connected. Players want to join a program in which they will have the opportunity to win, and a team with a sense of community contributes to this opportunity. “What I love about this current year’s team is how diverse everybody is,” Vargo-Brown said. “Diverse personalities of young women. I think when you embrace that and you allow that to come together some really special stuff happens.” If the team’s success in the water is indeed a product of the synthesis of its swimmers’ personalities, Vargo-Brown’s assessment has been proven correct thus far. The Buckeyes most recently won the North Regional Championships to improve to 22-0. They will next compete at the national championships on March 28.
After 21 years at the helm of the Ohio State men’s soccer program, head coach John Bluem announced his retirement Monday. The four-time Big Ten Coach of the Year compiled a 206-161-58 record in Columbus — the most wins of any coach in team history. He led the team to four Big Ten titles, two conference tournament titles and 10 appearances in the NCAA tournament, accounting for all 10 of the program’s trips to the tournament. The team finished as national runner-up in 2007. “It has been an honor and a privilege to serve as the men’s soccer coach these past 21 years, and I would like to thank Gene Smith and Shaun Richard for their support and leadership,” Bluem said in a statement. “I would like to express my sincerest gratitude and appreciation to all of the players I have had the opportunity to coach and develop relationships with. I will treasure the memories we have shared together for the rest of my life.” Before Bluem was hired in 1997, Ohio State had just 11 seasons with a plus.500 record since it was founded in 1953. Bluem led the Buckeyes to 15 seasons with a plus-.500 record, including six consecutive winning seasons to start his tenure as head coach. Players under Bluem found plenty of individual success. He watched 17 players go on to be drafted by Major League Soc-

cer teams, two selected as Big Ten Players of the Year, 31 become first team All-Big Ten, 48 named to second team All-Big Ten teams and four become All-Americans. Bluem was the head coach of the Fresno State men’s soccer team for six seasons before joining the Scarlet and Gray. With Bluem as head coach, the Bulldogs combined to go 86-27-12 during his tenure and advanced four times to the NCAA tournament. His 292-191-70 career record, equaling a .591 winning percentage, places him in the top 50 among active collegiate coaches. He will retire 17th in wins and 44th in winning percentage.

Stunner at St. John: Central Michigan OSU faces question marks for next season with ends Mitchell era with 95-78 win several key departures
BRYAN SUAREZ Lantern reporter suarez.98@osu.edu In a stunning upset, the third-seeded Ohio State women’s basketball team fell 95-78 to 11th-seeded Central Michigan Monday in the second round of the NCAA tournament. Along with the loss comes the final game for five seniors on the Buckeyes’ roster, including senior guard Kelsey Mitchell. The only silver lining for Ohio State came when Mitchell scored her 20th point with 6:59 remaining in the fourth quarter, which moved her into second place alltime in NCAA women’s history for career scoring. Mitchell struggled to find her shot all night, finishing with 28 points on 11-of-29 shooting. Central Michigan’s 14 3-pointers and 25 made free throws played a huge part in its victory. Along with its relentless defense that held the Buckeyes to just 40 percent shooting, Central Michigan ensured nothing went right for Buckeyes during their final game. Central Michigan fell behind after the first quarter, but blew the door off with a 25-6 second quarter. After a 15-9 Ohio State first quarter lead, the Chippewas went on a 14-0 run to start the second quarter. The Buckeyes did not score their first second-quarter field goal until there was three minutes remaining. “I thought for a stretch there we got really good shots,” head coach

Central Michigan redshirt freshman guard Micaela Kelly shoots a layup during the first quarter of the Chippewas’ win against Ohio State in the second round of the NCAA tournament at St. John Arena on March 19. Kevin McGuff said. “We missed probably four layups at the beginning of the second quarter, shots that we normally make. Then we just didn’t handle it very well cause I think we let that spill over to the defensive end. We lost a bit of focus and intensity.” Senior guard Cassie Breen and junior guard Presley Hudson combined for 19 of the Central Michigan’s 25 points in the quarter. Breen’s 12 points came in all
sorts of fashion. She went 3-for4 from the field, making 2-of-3 shots from 3s, and made all three attempts from the free-throw line. As is often the trend with the Buckeyes, when Mitchell struggled, so too did Ohio State. Mitchell shot 2-of-8 in the second quarter with her team finishing the quarter 2-of-13 from the field — with six turnovers on top. Redshirt senior forward StephaNCAA CONTINUES ON 6
EDWARD SUTELAN Assistant Sports Editor sutelan.1@osu.edu The Ohio State men’s basketball season came to a close Saturday in heartbreaking fashion with a late comeback attempt falling short against fourth-seed Gonzaga, which won 90-84. Though it ended short of a national championship, the season was well past anything most — including the team — expected the Buckeyes would accomplish in the first season of the Chris Holtmann era. Now the focus turns swiftly from losing in the 2018 NCAA Tournament to returning to the Big Dance in 2019.
It will not necessarily be easy for the Buckeyes to repeat. The roster will look different next season, with forward Jae’Sean Tate and guards Kam Williams and Andrew Dakich graduating. There also is a chance breakout star redshirt junior forward Keita Bates-Diop, who was honored with the seniors after the team’s final home game, will depart early for the NBA draft after he posted eye-popping numbers in a healthy season. Assuming Bates-Diop leaves, the starting five will return just freshman center Kaleb Wesson and junior guard C.J. Jackson.

Ohio State senior guard Kelsey Mitchell (3) waits for an inbound pass in the NCAA tournament game against Central Michigan on March 19 in St. John Arena.
Just one player — former Washington guard Kelsey Pum — has scored more career points in NCAA history than Ohio State senior guard Kelsey Mitchell. Mitchell, a three-time Big Ten Player of the Year, hit a layup in the fourth quarter of the second-round matchup between the No. 3-seed Buckeyes and No. 11seed Central Michigan to give her 3,402 points and sole possession of second place on the all-time career scoring list. The layup moved her past former Missouri State guard Jackie Stiles, who scored 3,393 career points. However, Mitchell’s move into second place was overshadowed by the Buckeyes’ surprise 95-78 loss to the Chippewas. Mitchell ends her career 125 points behind Plum, who currently sits at 3,527 career collegiate
points. She entered Monday averaging 24.1 points per game and scored just 11 points in the first round of the tournament against George Washington. Mitchell became the Big Ten’s all-time leading scorer on Jan. 27, passing Minnesota’s Rachel Banham, when she hit a 3-pointer against Michigan State to give her 3,093 career points. She has scored more than 500 points more than former Buckeye forward Jantel Lavender, who sits in second with 2,818 career points. Mitchell holds numerous other NCAA, Big Ten and Ohio State records. The senior ended her career on a streak of 92 straight games with a made 3-pointer, the most in a row in NCAA history. Mitchell also has made the most 3-pointers in NCAA history with 497 triples. The volume shooter has attempted the most field goals (2,560) and 3-pointers (1,286) ever in the NCAA.
