title trinket a reminder to former osu basketball player’s Son sports I Championship relic from 1945 Cowboy basketball season up for sale.

Jordan Bishop S po rt s R e p o rt e r @Jordanbishop35

Seventy years ago, 17 men from a land-grant college in Stillwater presented themselves to the basketball world as national champions.

Among the men who walked off of the famed court of New York City’s Madison Square Garden was Richard Caldwell, a lanky three-year player from a small mining town in southeastern Oklahoma.

He would play only one year for coach Henry Iba, but he was given a pendant-sized golden basketball with his name engraved alongside his college’s that would stay

with him his entire life.

Richard left basketball to start a career as a pipe setter to support his family.

The gold basketball was placed in a jewelry box.

He died in 1987, but his son, Rick, inherited the treasured ball.

But years of playing minor league baseball for the Kansas City Royals took its toll on Rick’s body. With seven elbow surgeries last year and a neck surgery to be scheduled, the sport has taken a monetary toll, too.

Rick, 60, is being forced to sell the cherished relic to pay for his medical bills.

“It’s sad to be losing it,” Rick said.

‘A HELL OF A GUY’ Rick grew up hearing stories from his dad about the 1945 season and on rare occasions, Richard would go upstairs and bring down a small black velvet box.

“I saw the basketball maybe six times in my

life,” Rick said. “It was always upstairs in the house.

He never put it in a safety deposit box or anything.

“He hardly showed it, but when he did, he used gloves to show it.”

Rick can’t help but to reminisce about his dad when he’s talking about the basketball.

He wants people to not only be able to hold a piece of OSU history, but to also know who his dad was to him.

About 92 miles east of Ada, nestled just south of Robbers Cave State Park was where Richard set school records for Wilburton High School.

Clyde Wooldridge, spokesman for the WHS Athletic association, said Richard’s play was something special.

“He set the all-time school record for most points in a game with 49 points in January 1941,” Wooldridge said. “And 49 Story continues on page 3

points in 1941 would be like 99 points today.”

After he graduated, Richard stayed home and played at Eastern Oklahoma State College before Iba came knocking. The future hall of fame coach had tried to recruit the forward for quite some time before Richard finally accepted.

At 22, married to his high school sweetheart, Mary, with a baby on the way, he left his hometown for good.

“He took it on a whim because he wanted to play for Hank Iba because Iba was one of the best coaches ever,” Rick said.

A family man, Richard left basketball after the 1945 season to start his career as a pipe setter and in 1948, he and his family moved to Oak Lawn, Illinois.

Over the years in Oak Lawn, Richard never forgot the game he loved and was always ready for a pick-up game in the neighborhood.

“My dad back in the day used to take seniors from my high school team and he would play basketball with them at the house.”

Rick said. “He had a fall away hook shot that there were guys that were 6-foot5 that couldn’t block it.

Eight times out of 10 that basketball was going in the hoop, and this was when he was 50 years old.”

FINDING VALUE

On a whim last summer, Rick took the ball with him to the nationally syndicated show “A Piece of the Game” in Chicago to see how much it was worth. To his surprise, Don Dupree, the show’s appraiser, evaluated the basketball to be worth about $8,000.

Afterward, Rick decided he would put it up for sale in Stillwater.

“I just think it’s cool,” Rick said. “It’s like a before and after with the college name. Also, it’s from the first year where they won two (NCAA championships) in a row.”

In 1945, Oklahoma State, then known as Oklahoma A&M, set records in almost every category. They beat

opponents by an average of 20 ½ points behind the strength of star Bob Kurland. Finishing the year 27-4, the Aggies won their first title against hometown favorite New York University 49-45.

Gold items like the ball usually are appraised for much lower, but because of the historical significance of the ball, the price skyrockets.

Amy Pitchford, who helped start Stillwater Antique and Collector’s Mall, said when a piece such as the ball comes up for sale, there’s a niche market for it.

“We have a few local collectors who will pay the big bucks for rare pieces like that,” Pitchford said.

When Richard died at 64 he and his son were immensely close.

And although Richard is gone, Rick likes to think that his father won’t be forgotten as long as the small golden basketball with the words “Richard Caldwell,” “Oklahoma A&M” and “1945 Champions” etched in the metal has a place in the world.

“He was my best friend in the whole world,” Rick said. “He was a hell of a guy, really someone to look up to.”

Fraternities adding 2 houses to Greek Row

Allison Smith Sta ff Rep o rt e r @allison_smith41

Just off of the south side of University Street, there are as many hard hats and construction equipment as you’ll find on campus.

Members of Phi Gamma Delta and Phi Kappa Alpha are preparing and drawing plans for the construction of their new homes.

Phi Gamma Delta, commonly referred to as Fiji, began the demolition of its former house on 1123 W. University Ave. in the beginning of August.

Plans are underway for the creation of Fiji’s $4 million home.

The timeframe for the project’s completion isn’t long, said Grant Newton, Fiji’s external communica-

tion executive.

“We are building a new (house) in the same location as the current house,” Newton said. “The timeframe is set for the house to be finished before the end of the year in 2016.”

In-house members of the fraternity moved out in May and are living in the Phi Delta Theta house in the 200 block of South Monroe.

“Our house held about 64 members, and the new house should hold up to 70,” Newton said. “The goal of the new house was to modernize, strengthen and create more space for about the same number of members that we currently hold.”

Fiji is not the only fraternity adding a new house to Greek Row. Pi Kappa Alpha is preparing to break ground for its new house on the corner of University and Monroe streets.

Hornbeek Blatt Architects, based in Edmond, partnered with Pi Kappa Alpha to design the new home.

Phi Gama Delta will have a new $4 million home by the end of 2016. Its old house was demolished in August.

In-house Phi Gamma Delta members moved out of their former house in May and are temporarily living in the Phi Delta Theta house. Phi Gamma Delta’s new home will hold up to 70 members and be built in the same location as the old house.

Anthony Blatt, a Hornbeek Blatt Architects team member, estimated it will take 12-14 months to build the Jeffersonian-style home, designed to match the rest of the buildings on the OSU campus.

The cost of construction is still being determined.

Pi Kappa Alpha members are living in their current house until the new home is built. The Baptist Collegiate Ministry building was demolished Aug. 18 to make way for the fraternity’s new home. Pi Kappa Alpha will hold a ground breaking ceremony Sept. 12 and start construction a few days later, said

Shane Pate II, Alumni Advisory Board chairman for the Pikes at OSU. Pate said the fraternity sold its existing house to OSU in May. “The Pikes will continue to lease the house from OSU until the new house is complete,” Pate said.

“We don’t know what OSU plans on doing with the current house, but look forward to seeing how OSU best makes use of the property.”

Pate said a small group of Pike alumni started the conversation about housing renovations.

“Greek housing at OSU is going through a renais-

OCOLLY.COM

sance of sorts, and we felt that we needed to become a part of the movement to remain competitive,” he said.

“However, once we started talking to our alumni and realized the potential for donor support, we shifted our focus on building a completely new structure in a better location on campus.”

Pate said the Pike’s current house was last renovated in 2008 when new flooring was installed along with updated bathrooms.

The new 32,000-squarefoot home will include an indoor basketball court, conference rooms and a new chapter room, Pate

said. The bedrooms will be suites.

The fraternity’s existing house will be renovated into the J. Louie Sanderson Memorial House, according to the Pi Kappa Alpha’s recent social network posts.

“We are very excited and proud of the new house being built,” Pate said. “This structure will define Pi Kappa Alpha for the next century, attracting scholars, athletes and gentlemen that will aspire to do great things for PiKA, OSU and their communities upon graduation.” news@ocolly.com

SGA Pres. Hilbert: We want to be the voice of students As president of SGA, Hilbert enters a list of distinguished alumni encompassing 100 years of student government at Oklahoma State. The title carries responsibility, but also offers a chance at a lasting legacy for students.

SGA kicked off the semester with the largest Lights on Stillwater in history. Vice President Taylor Dennis coordinated the event.

Hilbert said the event was improved and less crowded despite its larger size.

“That event ended up being a resounding success,” Hilbert said. “We’d had more booths than we’d ever had sign up with over

After Student Government Association’s spring semester of campaign and election controversy, President Kyle Hilbert is on a mission to unify the organization.

But he also has a bigger goal for SGA, and that’s to be the voice of the students.

200. We also spread it out as compared with previous years. In previous years, there were three rows of tables, and this year we only had two and ran it longer down Hall of Fame, which I thought was really good and a whole lot less congested.”

This weekend, Hilbert and other members of SGA’s three branches of student government went to Camp Redlands outside of Stillwater for the semester retreat.

The goal of the retreat at the beginning of each semester is to brief newer members on bylaws and procedures and to promote teamwork within the organization.

Hilbert said the event is an opportunity for SGA to lay out its vision and agenda for big issues this fall, particularly with the graduation of many prominent SGA senators such as Senate Chair Clint Duncan and Vice Chair Allison Slagell.

In part due to graduations, several positions in both the executive and judicial branch still need to be filled, something Hilbert said is a big part of this fall’s objectives for the organization.

Above all, Hilbert said SGA wants to improve its communication with students and work harder to represent everyone on campus.

Splash Dash 5k brings color to Stillwater

Carlie Hasty Staff w ri t e r @ o c o l ly

Runners of all ages poured into Stillwater on Saturday to participate in the second annual Color Splash Dash 5k and fun run.

Families and members of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation organized the Splash Dash to raise money to help find a cure for cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis causes the body to produce an excess amount of mucus in the lungs, which causes victims to be prone to sickness and have difficulty breathing.

Ronda Meyers, grandmother to Aden Hall, a 2-year-old living with the disease, and her team of planners have been working on the event since last year’s race in November.

“We are so excited to see how much the race has already grown,” Meyers said.

Exceeding its goal of 200 participants, the Splash Dash raised more than $10,000 toward finding a cure for cystic fibrosis, Meyers said.

“We had double the turnout this year from last year,” said Ashley Hall, Aden’s mother. “It’s wonderful.”

Denis Hotson, 34, brought his son, Gunar, 6, to participate in the Splash Dash.

“Gunar did a color run last year, and he loved running through the powder,” Hotson said. “He got so pumped when I told him that there would be a race here in Stillwater.”

Participants received a T-shirt MONDAY, AUGUST 31, 2015

and their own color packet to throw around.

Each color station throughout the race consisted of volunteers throwing color packets at runners and spraying them with water soakers full of dye.

Opening registration to runners on the day of the race allowed the organizers to raise an extra $2,000, Meyers said.

Among the participants were three families with children living with cystic fibrosis.

“We are adding tomorrows for these kids out here today,” Meyers said.

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation puts on multiple events throughout the year in efforts to raise money for research, Meyers said.

Kelsey Sistrunk, a Cystic Fibrosis Foundation member, worked in collaboration with Meyers.

“It’s great to know that all of this money goes right to medical research,” Sistrunk said. “They are so close to finding a cure.”

The Color Splash Dash had 15 sponsors this year, along with local volunteers, who helped with the color stations, which included the powder bomb station at the finish line.

Oklahoma State sophomore Willis Cook and junior Martin Gamarra, both members of the Delta Chi fraternity, were among the volunteers.

Cook and Gamarra passed out water bottles and sprayed runners with dyed water towards the last leg of the race.

“We love to represent Oklahoma State whenever we can,” Cook said. “It’s so cool to see everyone out here for a good cause.”

Meyers said she hopes even more people will sign up for next year.

“I will keep doing things like this until they find a cure,” Meyers said. “I’m hopeful for the future.” news@ocolly.com

Alaskan walk-on brehmer saves the weekend for Cowgirls “Holly’s goal was huge,” OSU coach Colin Carmichael said. “It got us going, and without it, the second half probably would have been a lot more difficult.”

It was only the beginning for the Bulldogs and Brehmer.

The Cowgirls put on a clinic in the second half.

The chances that eluded them in the first 43 minutes were converted into goals in the last half. Brehmer scored again on one of those second half chances for her second goal of the game and third in her career.

Yet again, Brehmer found herself the beneficiary off a rebound as Anna Beffer raced down the field and fired a shot at Hogrell’s legs that ricocheted to her right, finding Brehmer, who was trailing the play and shot for the empty-net goal. It was a special day for the walk-on.

“I definitely hoped a day like today would come, so I’ve been working hard for it,” Brehmer said. “I didn’t expect it, but I’m really excited.”

Although Brehmer wasn’t the only Cowgirl to score on the afternoon, with two world-class finishes from

Under the sweltering Oklahoma sun, no one was hotter Sunday afternoon than Holly Brehmer.

Oklahoma State soccer returned to form on Sunday, dismantling the Georgia Bulldogs 4-0. The Cowgirls (2-1) were clinical in the second half after the Sooners embarrassed them 2-0 on Friday, while the Bulldogs (0-3-1) wilted in the heat.

Brehmer, a walk-on from Eagle River, Alaska, opened the scoring in the 44th minute after UGA goalie Louise Hogrell fumbled a deep cross in the center of the box. Brehmer connected with her right foot and forced a shot up and into the top right corner of the net for her second career goal.

COLLEGE SKI & BOARD WEEK

Marlo Zoller and Courtney Dike, Brehmer was the biggest star.

It was a complete 180-degree turn from Friday night’s Bedlam defeat.

“We always nitpick, and we’re looking for negatives,” Carmichael said. “I can’t find any. The team did great. … We talked about our physicality. We changed that completely. We tweaked our system slightly for a couple of bigger, stronger kids in the midfield. I think that helped. … Nothing negative to say.”

It was a magical day at the Cowgirl Soccer Complex. A walk-on from Eagle River, Alaska, scored twice.

A highly touted freshman in Zoller scored her first regular season goal on a 30-yard curler into the top left corner of the net, and Dike — the program’s poster child — scored her first goal of the year after controlling a cross in the box off her chest and volleying it top shelf on an 180-degree scissor kick.

The Cowgirls may have haltered out of the gate, but they appear to be on their way.

Jacquie Cheatham/O’COLLY Holly Brehmer celebrates with her teammates after the first of her two goals Sunday.

Brehmer leads the Cowgirls with three goals this season.

Team effort earns Cowgirls a bounce-back win

FOR RELEASE AUGUST 31, 2015

Los Angeles Times Daily Crossword Puzzle Edited by Rich Norris and Joyce Lewis

Marshall Scott Sp ort s R ep o rt e r @Marshall_Once

Eleven players made it on the pitch for the Cowgirls, not including the 11 that started.

The Cowgirl starters were sent in to tire the Bulldogs before the Oklahoma State reserves came in and finished Georgia off for a 4-0 win.

“We also rotated a lot,” OSU soccer oach Colin Carmichael said. “We were trying to save some fresh legs, especially up front, and we wanted to wear them down and I think that happened. …

“Courtney (Dike) is still not quite 100 percent so we’re very mindful of that.

We told Courtney, Haley (Woodard) and those guys ‘run them, run them, run them’ and we’ll get Holly (Brehmer), we’ll get Maddie (Mercado), we’ll get Anna (Beffer) and Beryl (Smith), we’ll start rotating and I think you saw it, they wore down.”

MONDAY, AUGUST 31, 2015

Jacquie Cheatham/O’COLLY After returning from a hamstring injury on Friday, Courtney Dike (left) scored her first goal of the season Sunday.

The Cowgirls (2-1) ramped up the aggression and stayed on the attack, unlike in Friday’s 2-0 loss to Oklahoma.

OSU dominated possession throughout the game against Georgia (0-3-1) thanks to the fresh players constantly putting pressure on the Bulldogs.

The first two Cowgirl goals came from tap-ins

by Brehmer, who added her second and third goals of the young season.

With five minutes left in the first half, Smith came off the bench and flicked a header that looked destined for the back of the net before a diving save from Bulldog goalkeeper Louise Hogrell.

Only two OSU starters, Lana Duke and Christina Jean-Charles, were called upon to play the full 90

minutes. Beffer and Mercado got the most minutes of the substitutes with 37 and 44, respectively, and all of the players who were subbed on played at least 11 minutes.

“The reserve players, we challenged them to step into new roles and give us some minutes off the bench,” Carmichael said. “They were awesome.”

The Cowgirls will need their reserves to keep up the good work with two tough games coming up next weekend when they travel to No. 14 Florida and UCF. “Those reserve kids deserve a ton of praise today,” Carmichael said.

“They made the difference in my opinion.” sports@ocolly.com
