BACK ON THE PITCH Dekota Gregory @dekotagregory
The young, inexperienced Oklahoma State soccer squad from a year ago will enter the 2014 campaign with more experience and knowledge to try to improve on a 9-7-6 record. The Cowgirls will be returning 10 starters — six who were freshman — from last season’s Big 12 Tournament runner-up team, including Courtney Dike, a sophomore standout and the Big 12’s leading scorer. Dike led the conference with 13 goals, which was also the fourth-most in school history. The forward also received an opportunity to represent Nigeria this summer in Under-20 World Cup
in Canada, which could cause her to miss the first two games of the season. Dike also earned preseason All-Big 12 honors along with sophomore defender Natalie Calhoun and junior midfielder Allie Stephenson. Stephenson may be the one to help take some heat off Dike. Stephenson was second on the team in goals last season with six, three of which were potential game-winners. Calhoun will help take the load on the defensive end after starting 21 games last year as a freshman. Junior Delaney Kiely will also be a key defender for the Cowgirls. Carmichael said French recruit Laurene Tresfield, who joined the team late this summer, could find herself in the starting lineup as physical presence at 5 feet 6 inches. Oklahoma State will begin its season on the road
against rival Oklahoma in a nonconference Bedlam match Aug. 22. OSU currently holds the upper hand in Bedlam, winning 19 of the past 25 meetings, including two victories last season. The Cowgirls will have another shot against Arkansas Aug. 24 in Fayetteville, Ark., after the Hogs ended Oklahoma State’s season last year in the first round of the NCAA Tournament on the Cowgirls’ own pitch, but Carmichael says the team will not be seeking revenge. “We won’t talk about it,” Carmichael said. “We don’t want to say ‘revenge games’ or anything, because you play the conference teams every year and you’re going to win some and lose some, but there’s no doubt they’re in the back of our team’s mind. “That’s the team that knocked us out last year.” The Cowgirls will finally
return to Stillwater on Aug. 30 with a chance to upset defending NCAA runnerup Florida State. The Cowgirls nearly pulled off the upset last year in Tallahassee with a one-goal draw. Oklahoma State will begin conference play Sept. 26 at home against Iowa State, where the team hopes its tough nonconference schedule will begin to pay off. sports@ocolly.com Cowgirl Soccer vs.

A lack of experience will force Oklahoma State to rely on more than just talent in 2014. Although OSU is loaded with ability, it might not be ready to take on defending national champion Florida State at AT&T Stadium in Dallas Aug. 30, yet positivity remains. “I like where our football team is right now,” coach Mike Gundy said after the team’s Saturday scrimmage. “I like their attitude. I think they’re a very focused group. We’ve had really good football teams here that weren’t focused. They were always kind of in left field, but they played good on Saturdays. This team seems to be focused.” Inexperience may plague the Cowboys defensively, especially early. “They’ve got a ways to go,” Gundy said. “There’s no question. When you watch them play, they’re competing and playing hard, but they’re making mistakes that young players make. It just takes some time.” Kevin Peterson and Ashton Lampkin lock
down the cornerback position for OSU, with Deric Robertson, Tre Flowers, Jordan Sterns and Larry Stephens expected to see time at safety. Ryan Simmons will lead OSU at linebacker and be joined Michigan transfer Josh Furman, who was mostly a safety with the Wolverines. Defensive coordinator Glenn Spencer pointed to freshman Justin Phillips as a linebacker who has improved throughout camp. Gundy has been impressed with the play of all freshmen. “They’re learning,” he said. “They’re improved. … I think I counted eight freshmen on the field at one time. It’s a good thing, but you also hold your breath at the same time.” The Cowboys’ defensive line is loaded with veterans, anchored by defensive tackles James Castleman and Ofa Hautau and defensive ends Jimmy Bean, Trace Clark, Eric Davis, Sam Wren and Emmauel Ogbah. “I feel good about the upcoming season,” Bean said. “With the defensive line and the whole team, we’ve been building team chemistry over the past few weeks and over the summer.” Desmond Roland and Rennie Childs return to OSU’s backfield, but preseason All-Big 12 Newcomer of the Year Tyreek Hill might be the most
O’COLLY
exciting back. Gundy has said Hill, a track and field All-American last spring, could see time at running back, wide receiver and kick returner in 2014. “It’s creates something for the defense so they don’t know what to expect,” Roland said. “We can give it to me up the middle then run Tyreek up the sideline. He’s a fast guy, so he’ll be a playmaker this year.” Hill would be joining a talented receiving core, including Jhajuan Seales, Blake Webb, Brandon Sheperd, Marcell Ateman, Ra’Shaad Samples and David Glidden, but it’s unknown who will be throwing the passes. Quarterbacks J.W. Walsh, Daxx Garman and Mason Rudolph are competing to start against FSU. Walsh, a junior, is the only one of the three with playing experience. “J.W. brings a lot of physicality to the game,” offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich said. “He understands the game very well, he has experience, and he’s a great leader.” Garman, also a junior, hasn’t played in a game but has been impressive enough for Gundy to say he will get 10-12 snaps against the Seminoles. Rudolph graduated early from high school to practice with OSU in the spring. Yurcich said the true freshman understandably has more to learn
with the mental side of football. Gundy said the trio’s play Saturday was outstanding but recognized it could be a result of the inexperienced defense. “(The defense is) obviously a little more vulnerable when there’s youth out there, but I have a pretty good feel for when the quarterback is in the right spot mentally and physically,” he said. “I thought they competed and made good plays.” In the days leading up to Aug. 30, Gundy said he expects the team to continue to develop its abilities and chemistry. “I think they get a little better each day,” he said. “We still have areas that we need to improve on, but we’re certainly as far along as we can be right now with the veteran players, and then we have another category of young players. I think we’re as far along as they can be at this stage in their career.” sports@ocolly.com Up Next vs. Against: Florida State When: Aug. 30 at 7 p.m. Where: Arlington, Texas TV: ABC PAGE 3
When will it end?
THE ANSWER ISN’T SO SIMPLE.
RACHAEL MALTBY/O’COLLY
Citywide construction started in May. Various projects continued through move-in day and other campus activities like Rush. Some will be done Monday, but others will contine through the fall.
Caele Pemberton @CaelePemberton
T
hree months isn’t enough to get everything done. The city of Stillwater began working on several streets over the summer after the council approved road construction projects in May. Most of the construction began over the summer, during the “slow period,” said Jason Peek, transportation manager. But these projects can’t all get done in only three months. The city is focusing heavily on South Monroe Street because it is closest to campus, said Sharla Lovern, City of Stillwater construction manager and transportation engineer. The project is scheduled for completion
around Aug. 18. Other areas, such as 19th and Western, are expected to be finished in November. City planners make sure to keep students in mind when planning these projects, said Sherry Fletcher, director of marketing and public relations for the city. “We are a college town,” she said. “We do know the ebbs and flows of that, but work does have to happen, and somebody is going to be inconvenienced at some point, but we do the best we can.” Some areas of the city, such as on West University, are under construction to fix the city’s outdated sewage system, said Brandon Neal, a water utilities engineer for the city. The project is behind schedule “We specifically timed the project to minimize the impact on the students and the public,” Neal said. “We started that project right after homecoming of the last football season.”
MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2014
This project is behind schedule, Neal said. Because of this, the contractor will be assessed a liquidated damage, which means the city will pay the contractor less money. Neal said he didn’t know why the project is behind schedule, but weather can play a large factor in slowing down construction. With the summer rain, construction slowed. Some students said three months should be enough time. “It’s crazy that they couldn’t get this done over the summer,” said junior Dominic Eramo, a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon. The fraternity is on Fourth Street, right next to the construction. Justin Hesse, an Alpha Tau Omega member, said he worried the parking lot to the fraternity would be blocked when people moved in. Thankfully, he said, the street directly in front of the driveway was finished just before people returned. “I’m not an expert at
construction work at all; I couldn’t say how long it’s supposed to take,” he said. “It just seems like it shouldn’t take four or five months to finish one or two blocks.” Michelle Gillilan, who lives on Fourth Street, has to park her car at a nearby apartment complex for the next week because the construction is blocking her driveway. The construction is inconvenient and wakes her up at 8 a.m., but she’s looking forward to having a nicer street in front of her house, she said. “It was just gravel,” she said. “My car is always covered in dirt.” Stillwater.org lists information on each project and the expected time of completion. Neal encourages anyone with questions or concerns to call the city. “Renewing the infrastructure is important but we also understand that being able to get your garbage out is also really important,” Neal said.

HIDDEN HISTORIES
PHOTO COURTESY OF JAMES COOPER
OSU professor James Cooper is preserving colonial church records.
Kaelynn Knoersnchild @kaelynn_k
It was discovered, like many, in a closet. A rare document dating to 1773, it contained a 1 1/2 page statement of faith written in the script of a slave. “It may be the only statement of faith written by a slave, in the slave’s own hand, that exists in America,” said Oklahoma State professor James Cooper, who discovered the document. Each summer since 2005, Cooper volunteers to travel to the New England region, spending his time scavenging through old church records and recovering
documents in danger of being lost or damaged. Cooper teamed with Margaret Bendroth, executive director of the Congregational Library in Boston, and is attempting to preserve and digitize colonialera church records, a project known as New England’s Hidden Histories. He said he most often runs across records including lists of church memberships, baptisms, marriages and deaths, as well as financial records. “The right kind of historian with the right kind of imagination probably is going to be able to look at these financial records and tell some interesting story,” he said. Cooper’s experience with church records dates to 1981, when he was forced to examine documents for a project while attending graduate school at the University of Connecticut.
MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2014
“I found that the story that the records told was fascinating,” he said. “I discovered that while a great deal had been written about the general topic of early Massachusetts and the Puritans and their churches, nobody had systematically examined all these church records.” Recently, Cooper and Bendroth’s efforts have been highlighted in The Boston Globe, Washington Post and the New York Times. “When you end up on the front page of the New York Times, a lot changes,” he said. With the help of the media, churches have reached out to Cooper, willing to relinquish their records for digitization. He said that along with the increased awareness of the project, he hopes the exposure will secure funding for the project. The goal of the project is to get as many documents as possible transcribed and available on the Internet. The online database contains 20 sets of church records. The information gathered from the records can be useful for genealogists interested in tracing records as well as scientists intrigued by death records. Also, Cooper said those interested in the history of language are fascinated to study the changes that have occurred over time. “If one wants to understand what life was like in colonial New England, and by extension colonial America, there is no better avenue to gain that kind of insight than these records.”

Taking to Twitter to voice concerns over city streets isn’t the only way to make sure city council knows you’re mad. Attending city council meetings allows citizens to speak about important issues with councilors. Some meetings, only a handful of citizens attend, and some leave immediately after their child leads the Pledge of Allegiance or the mayor makes an announcement
about their organization. Other meetings, the room is packed with concerned residents of neighborhoods worried about swarms of college students moving in right down the street. Oklahoma State University students are scarce at meetings. Aside from a few Student Government Association members and the occasional reporting class, students don’t usually show up. Attending these meetings can help students stay informed about what’s going on in Stillwater — such as when construction is planned or if parking fines are going to double. Agendas for the meetings are available on Stillwater.org and show exactly what the
MONDAY, AUGUST 18, 2014
councilors will discuss and vote on. Before the meeting, people can sign up to speak during public comment on issues that directly affect the daily life of Stillwater residents — including students. The municipal building is downtown at 723 S. Lewis, a quick walk from Aspen Coffee. Unless the council is voting on something controversial, the meetings usually last between 10 minutes and two hours. Finding out the street you live on is under construction until November doesn’t have to be a surprise. Staying informed about what’s going on in the city can make the next four years of college a much smoother ride.

Daily Horoscope By Nancy Black (MCT) Today’s Birthday (08/18/14). With the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Jupiter (until 8/2015) in your sign, your star power grows. Don’t singe anyone with your fire... balance with meditation and exercise. Changes require adaptation this autumn. Home duties keep you busy until after Saturn enters Sagittarius (12/23), bringing exciting diversions. Practice hobbies, sports and enthusiasms. Express what you love. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Aries (March 21-April 19) -- Today is a 7 -- It may feel like you’re on your own. Circumstances deepen the mystery. Gather up windfall fruit. Your talents are in demand. Career expansion could include change. Stay persistent... messages get lost in translation. Taurus (April 20-May 20) -- Today is a 9 -- Handle mundane tasks, housework and homework, and reduce stress while beautifying surroundings. This keeps the cash flow positive and everyone more comfortable. Maintain what you’ve achieved. Do the accounting. Reward yourself with delicious flavors. Gemini (May 21-June 20) -- Today is a 9 -- Count the zeroes carefully. Misunderstanding or temporary overwhelm are possible. Complete a detailed transaction. Imagine your future and how you’d like it. It’s a nice moment to surrender, and learn about love. Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Today is a 7 -- Share a tender moment, and renew a bond. Don’t try to use logic on an emotional matter. It’s not a good time to gamble... the potential for accidents is too high. Wait to begin. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Today is a 7 -- The social arena is where it all happens. Don’t worry about saying the right thing or who’s watching. Allow yourself to get inspired by music, art and beauty. Express yourself, with or without words. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Today is a 7 -- Conditions seem unsettled. Who’s really in charge? Stick to the truth... it’s much easier. Get creative with a project, and stick to your budget. Abundance is available, and a rise in status. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Today is an 8 -- An adventure with friends hits the spot. Don’t try to articulate dreams or visions. Just go on a walk or share something delicious. Learn a new trick together. Play for no reason. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Today is a 7 -- Think of another way to communicate. Don’t fall for something that sounds too good to be true. Reschedule a deadline. Support your partner, and the goodwill returns magnified. Check drainage and resolve plumbing issues. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Today is an 8 -- Keep the most interesting things, and clear out unused clutter. You don’t have to rub it in, when you’re right. Work with your partner to realize a shared vision. Love triumphs again. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Today is a 9 -- Keep paying your obligations. Spend a little. Wise investments gain value. Build and expand without fanfare. Provide excellent service, while balancing your own health and vitality. Support others by supporting yourself. Do it for love. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Today is a 7 -- Don’t talk about it; just get out and play. Take charge. Make messes and clean them. Get everyone to help. Feed your worker bees. Make sure they know how much you love them. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Today is a 6 -- Talk over your work with family. Focus on priorities, and keep strengthening infrastructure. Give thanks for such abundance. It doesn’t take flowers and candles for love to shine. Beautify your nest with simple touches.
