With culture built, gajewski, cowgirls begin season Z ac h H ake S p o rt s Rep orter @ z ach_hake

Coach Kenny Gajewski called every player on the Oklahoma State softball roster after three years as an assistant coach at the University of Florida.

His first goal upon arriving in Stillwater as the Cowgirls’ new coach was to build a culture.

“I had to start building trust from the first moment,” Gajewski said. “I think it helped from where I came from, but we didn’t talk about the past. We just didn’t. We just said, ‘Hey, this is where we are today, and this is where we are gonna go.’”

Gajewski, entering his second season as the Cowgirls’ coach, said he knew success would not be instantaneous. With that in mind, it did not detour him from leading the Cowgirls to the postseason for the first time since 2011.

“I came here because I knew there would be expectations,” Gajewski said.

“I wanted to be at a place

that expects us to win and wants us to win.”

OSU finished fifth in the Big 12 last year with a 6-11 conference record. Heading into the 2017 season, the Cowgirls were picked to finish fourth in the Big 12, according to the league’s preseason poll.

Vanessa Shippy, returning Co-Big 12 Player of the Year, has lofty expectations for herself and her team despite the preseason ranking.

“I think it’s awesome because everyone loves the

underdog,” Shippy said.

“We’re gonna be a great team, and I’m excited. It just gives us something to prove.”

Shippy started all 53 games last season was recently named to the USA Softball Player of the Year Top 50 Watch List for her accomplishments last year, but she said her focus is on being a better teammate.

Gajewski spoke highly of Shippy’s toughness and leadership ability. Making sure she stays healthy but allowing her to continue to

play at a high intensity is a priority, he said.

Gajewski understands the impact a player like Shippy can have on his team no matter where she is positioned. Thanks to the teaching of her father, Shippy, who will primarily play catcher, shares this understanding about the importance of her versatility.

“I never would have imagined I would’ve been given a first base glove at the beginning of this season, and I have, and I love it,” Shippy said. “I love being versatile. Softball is a different game at each position, so it’s a lot of fun.”

One of the motivating factors in this team’s success will be trust, Gajeswki

said. He wants to develop a winning culture built on trust during his second season at OSU and players such as Shippy and Lynch provide the team with leaders to look up to.

“You just know to trust them,” sophomore Madi Sue Montgomery said.

“You know their ability, you know how good they are and you know you can trust them anywhere they are.”

The team’s first test and road trip will be against McNeesse State in the Tiger Classic at 11 a.m.

Friday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

“I’m going there looking for wins, and I know the whole team is and our coaching staff is,” Shippy

said. “I’m just really excited to just see how we work together. We obviously played in the fall, but now it’s different.”

Gajewski also said he is intrigued by the potential his team has, adding he’s excited about his lineup, featuring seven left-handed hitters, that has a mixture of speed, power and, most of all, selflessness.

“They are the most unselfish kids,” Gajewski said. “That’s the unselfishness, that’s the culture I want to have here.”

“We have some options,” Holliday said. “I’m pleased with all those kids.”

When Trey Cobb first felt the pain in his right elbow, he kept quiet about it.

Cobb and the rest of the Oklahoma State baseball team were in Clemson, South Carolina, on the first step of their eventual journey to Omaha, Nebraska, and the College World Series. Cobb, a right-hander, said Wednesday during the team’s media day he didn’t want to stop pitching at such a crucial time.

“You’re in the postseason,” Cobb said. “You want to pitch.”

In January, OSU coach Josh Holliday told the O’Colly that Cobb was dealing with elbow soreness. Cobb, who posted an ERA of 0.75 in 14 NCAA Tournament innings, said he didn’t tell Holliday or pitching coach Rob Walton about the pain during the postseason run.

“Rob’s the type of guy that if you’re hurt, he’s going to take you out of the game,” Cobb said.

Cobb felt a pop while throwing during the winter, later learning he had broken a bone in the elbow after initially fearing it was a ligament injury. He said he hopes to return by the Cowboys’ Big 12-opening series against No. 1 TCU, which begins March 24 in Fort Worth, Texas.

Cobb, who hasn’t thrown since early January, will visit a doctor Monday to get examined. If he’s cleared, he will throw for about a month FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 2017

before he is ready for game action.

“That’s a realistic holliday goal,” Cobb said. “It’s not something I’m going to set for myself and push myself too hard and not be able to get there. I think it’s realistic, and I’m really looking forward to it.”

In the meantime, other pitchers will have to supplant Cobb’s innings. Holliday said Wednesday that Carson Teel, Joe Lienhard and Blake Battenfield are candidates to serve as the Cowboys’ third starter behind Tyler Buffett and Jensen Elliott, while Parker

Scott and Jonathan Heasley are freshmen he expects to contribute early.

“Sometimes, through injuries, new guys are revealed that come to the forefront,” Holliday said. “We’re looking at it as a chance for other guys to get on the mound early, with the idea of Trey coming back to us later and hopefully having a deeper, more well-rounded pitching staff as a result of it.”

Returners to start in outfield, have youth behind them Senior Ryan Sluder and juniors Garrett McCain and Jon Littell will occupy the green in Allie P. Reynolds Stadium in 2017. All have starting experience, with Sluder and Littell starting

more than 50 games last season.

“It’s always exciting to see, through opportunities early in the year, how guys grow from one year to the next,” Holliday said. “I think our three returning kids are all better players than they were a year ago, and I’m very confident that those kids will go out and play well.”

Sluder, who will patrol center field, is coming off a year in which he hit .197 and missed time with a broken finger. McCain hit .203 but was third on the Cowboys in stolen bases despite starting only 21 of 65 games. Littell’s .258 average was boosted by a .379 performance in the

postseason.

“We have a really good chemistry already,” Sluder said. “They have good speed. They can both make any play on any ball, so that makes it easier for me out there.”

OSU will have three newcomers backing them up. Holliday said freshmen Trevor Boone and Cade Cabbiness have “a really high-end future.” Bryce Fischer, a transfer from Cowley County Community College in Kansas, is also in the mix. His freshman year at Cowley, Fischer was teammates with Garrett Benge, the Cowboys’ third baseman and likely threehole hitter.

Progress being made toward new stadium March 24, Allie P. Reynolds Stadium will host its 37th OSU home opener. It’s unknown how many it has left, though.

For the past several years, fundraising has been done to construct a new baseball stadium in Stillwater. Holliday said Wednesday progress continues to be made toward the new stadium. With the program’s success under Holliday, including OSU’s 20th trip to the College World Series last season, fundraising efforts have improved, while Holliday said he has had unrelenting support from Athletic Director Mike Holder and the OSU athletic department.

“I don’t know of a place that has a more amazing group of core contributors and boosters than our school,” Holliday said. “The year-in, year-out consistency that people support us in all sports is awesome, and you look at all the different sports on our campus and the great venues and the success of some of the teams, that’s a real strong statement about Oklahoma Nathan Ruiz is a sports media and sports managment senior from Reno, Nevada.

The Oklahoma State wrestling senior class has three All-Americans and four wrestlers ranked in the top 10 of their respective weight class, but that is not what coach John Smith wanted to talk about Tuesday before the Cowboys’ Senior Day on Sunday.

“Several of them didn’t really have an opportunity to wrestle for us, but that just tells you about those guys,” Smith said. “I got a bunch of seniors that are graduating that maybe wrestled a few matches as starters but was loyal to the program. You just gotta recognize that they were in here, some of them four years, a few of them are for five years, making a difference for someone else that stepped out there and was a starter and played a role.”

Landry Chappell is one of those guys in a senior class of eight. In five years at OSU, Chappell has tallied Chappell a 13-12 record and has never cracked the starting lineup at 184 pounds.

However, his alarm still goes off at 6:10 every morning to lift weights at 7 a.m., then go to practice at 3 p.m. after class.

“The guys I wrestle with every day, they get me through it,” Chappell said.

“Knowing that a lot of their

success, it comes through the room where no one sees it. I just push them as hard as I can, basically, so

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 2017

we can win a team national title.”

Chappell’s effort hasn’t always been behind closed doors. He claimed an Oklahoma individual state title in 2011 and finished second in 2012. He also earned All-State honors on the football field in 2011 and excelled on the baseball diamond as well. He even found success in the classroom as valedictorian at Guthrie High School.

Because of his success, Sept. 6 is “Landry Chap-

pell Day” in Guthrie.

“It’s a big change,” Chappell said. “It’s humbling, that’s for sure. Being one of the best guys on each team, and then coming here, you kind of find your role.

“Walking away, I’m too prideful for that. It’s definitely crossed my mind, but it’s never been an option.”

Chappell now views his success through his teammates’ accomplishments, particularly his best friend

OCOLLY.COM

and workout partner, Nolan Boyd.

“Weird relationship,” Chappell said. “In the room, we’re not friends.

We are, but we’re not.

Ultimately, we’re trying to rip each other’s heads off in practice. But afterwards, we run Bible study together and different stuff like that, but ultimately, still having that friend relationship.”

Boyd earned All-American honors last year and is ranked sixth at 184 pounds thanks to a 16-3 record.

Preston Weigel, Chappell’s other sparring partner, claimed a Big 12 title last season as a redshirt freshman in his tournament debut. In his first season as a consistent starter, Weigel has a 13-4 record and is ranked eighth at 197 pounds.

“Ultimately, their success is my success,” Chappell said. “I ride or die with those guys. Since I’m not getting to compete every day for OSU, I compete with them every day. I guess if they’re winning, I’m winning kind of thing.”

Chappell’s endeavors as a teammate have earned him respect from Smith and other Cowboy wrestlers. In fact, Smith was one of the first references listed when Chappell recently applied for graduate school to become a physical therapist.

“These are the guys you wanna hire,” Smith said.

“These are the guys that people want to take a second look at and go, ‘These are the kind of people I want in my business.’ I promise you, you wouldn’t be making a mistake. As they move forward, that characteristic that they’ve displayed as teammates and as members of our team, it shows me they’re quality people as they move forward.”

Cowboy Tennis team eager for home stand N athan Hiatt Spo rts R ep ort er @ o c ollysports

After a hard-fought victory against North Carolina State on Sunday, the Oklahoma State men’s tennis team hosts three matches this weekend in the Michael and Anne Greenwood Tennis Center.

With the upcoming slate of matches for his team, OSU coach Jay Udwadia said playing N.C. State was perfect. No. 12 OSU played its first four matches at home, and Udwadia said the Cowboys handled the competition well without any serious adversity.

Traveling to Raleigh, North Carolina, to play the Wolfpack proved to be a challenge, as the match came down the final court.

OSU (5-0) finished out the match with Jurence Mendoza defeating Ivan Saveljic, 7-5, 7-5.

Udwadia said he thinks the Cowboys can use the tough match in Raleigh as a building tool. He said he talks with his players about maximizing the opportunities they have at home, and winning on the road against an ACC opponent proves OSU has the capability of defeating a foe away from Stillwater.

“I think it was great

scheduling with a tough ACC team on the road early on, too, just to get the feel of being away from home, as well,” Udwadia said. “That is going to help us because a good team is going to have to learn how to win on the road and that was a good step for our program to start the season.”

The Cowboys must get used to playing away from home, as after the home stand, they compete in the ITA National Indoor Championship in Charlottesville, Virginia, starting Feb. 17. and won’t return for a home match until March 10.

Udwadia said he never likes to look ahead, though.

Udwadia is focused on playing Alabama, No. 2 Wake Forest and University of Missouri-Kansas City this weekend.

“It doesn’t get much easier, which is great because we want to play the best competition,” Udwadia said.

After defeating two top 25 teams, Columbia and Kentucky, and N.C. State, the Cowboys individual singles and doubles rankings have shifted.

OSU has three singles competitors who are nationally ranked: No. 32 Julian Cash, No. 48 Lukas Finzelberg and No. 65 Mendoza. Also, while Cash

and Arjun Kadhe remain the No. 5 duo, Lucas Gerch and Mendoza played their way to No. 50.

The Cowboys have an advantage at 5 p.m. Friday against the Crimson Tide and Kangaroos at 5 p.m.

Sunday, but Wake Forest at noon Sunday is a different story. The Demon Deacons have the No. 1, No. 10 and No. 26 singles competitors along with the No. 1 duo.

OSU will welcome back legendary coach James Wadley, who will perform the ceremonial coin toss before the start of singles play during the Alabama match. Wadley coached the Cowboys for 40 years,

which is the longest tenure for any OSU coach.

The Cowboys won 662 matches with Wadley.

Udwadia said he and the players appreciate Wadley for attending matches, and the gesture will be special.

“He is OSU tennis, so anytime we can represent him well and honor him, I definitely want to do it,” Udwadia said. “He means a lot to the program.”

Oklahoma State University Research Roundup: College of Arts & Sciences Jayci R ob is on Sta ff R epo rt er @ O C olly

Oklahoma State University’s College of Arts & Sciences is pioneering research in several departments.

Elly Leavens, fourth-year clinical psychology doctorate student, is conducting research involving the impact of alcohol and hookah tobacco. Hookah smoking is increasing in the U.S., and existing research has found it to be associated with many of the same effects as cigarette smoking, according to a research report from the OSU Graduate College on Leavens’ research.

Not much is known about the effects of consuming alcohol while smoking hookah, but an increase in

alcohol consumption has been shown to result in greater smoke exposure, according to the Graduate College report. Research findings could lead to the regulation of liquor sales in hookah lounges becoming a bigger priority.

“To have the potential to have a small part in decreasing the public health burden associated with hookah smoking is absolutely the most important part of my involvement in this research,” Leavens said.

Department of Integrative Biology’s Kristen Baum, an associate professor, and Monica Papes, an assistant professor, recently received $5.5 million from a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Program, according to an Arts & Sciences report.

Weekend Update

These funds will go toward defending endangered species.

Shalene Jha from the University of Texas will work with the two professors on the three-year project, according to the Arts & Sciences report. The project will focus on restoring pollinator habitats in Oklahoma and Texas grasslands and predicting distributions of pollinator species of concern. There will be a particular focus on native butterflies and bees.

U.S. Fish and Wildlife’s State Wildlife Grant program will provide the funding, according to the report. The research requires individual states to collaborate on the conservation efforts.

Michael Oehrtman,

an associate professor of mathematics at OSU, was awarded a National Science Foundation grant of more than $470,000, according to OSU Communications.

His research will focus on improving secondary teacher training in mathematics.

The studies will look into the ways teachers use mathematical knowledge for teaching and will expand on the factors influencing interaction with students, according the communications report.

The data will come from high school teachers in the hopes of developing more efficient ways of assessing and strengthening teachers’ mathematical knowledge for teaching. Although some previous research has looked at mathematical knowledge

for teaching, none have targeted what needs to be done in the classroom specifically.

The grant of $470,000 covers a small portion of the $1.17 million project.

The project also includes three professors from North Carolina. The National Science Foundation’s STEAM Workforce Development program will finance the grant for three years.

Erin Wood is a graduate student in the experimental psychology doctorate program at OSU. Wood said she is working with her faculty adviser Sheila Kennison to develop research relating to the influence parenting styles and family factors can have on a child’s development. The research will have a specific focus on children raised by single fathers.

Wood said she hopes to see if there are any distinct differences in developmental outcomes or parenting styles for children of single dads.

“Ultimately, I am wanting to be able to use this research to assist single fathers because they are a growing population which is often underrepresented in many research studies,” Wood said.

The research is scheduled to conclude this spring. The study is being conducted online, so anyone looking to participate can do so when convenient. For more information, contact Erin Wood at 1-479-899-2570 or email eewood@okstate.edu.
