Marathons aren’t fun, but dancing marathons are, especially when they’re for a charitable cause.

Cowboython, Oklahoma State University’s largest philanthropy, hosts an all-day dance marathon in which all proceeds and donations are given to Children’s Hospital Network in Oklahoma.

Cowboython is a branch of the Miracle Network Dance Marathon, which is made up of more than 300 colleges and universities across the country.

The mission statement of the marathon is “This generation fighting for the next,” and the movement strives to help sick children at more than 170 hospitals, according to the Miracle Network’s website.

Cowboython consists of several games and hours dancing with parents and children who are from local hospitals and are direct benefactors of the event. Check-in begins at 9:30 a.m. Saturday

in Colvin Annex, and the final donation total reveal will take place at 9:45 p.m.

Along with dancing and food, this year’s Cowboython festivities include a parade of families, Cowboython Olympics and an art auction.

Students can register any time before 10 a.m. Saturday at cowboython.org or at the event in person. There is a $25 registration fee, which will be donated to the Children’s Hospital Foundation. The registration money also pays

for a shirt, meals and access to all the activities. Students can charge the registration fee to their bursar accounts.

Cowboython is also accepting donations, including food and water for participants, if people are unable to attend the event.

Olivia Scott, a microbiology junior from Fort Worth, Texas, and member of Cowboython’s hospitality committee, said donations have come from all around Stillwater, including several local businesses and Greek houses.

“If anyone still wants to donate water bottles or food, they can up until the start of the event on Saturday,” Scott

said.

Ashleigh Rauner, a strategic communications senior from Tulsa and public relations director of Cowboython, said seeing the kids smile makes the preparation worth it.

“It’s 12 hours of absolute, genuine fun,” Rauner said.

“For students looking to give back to something greater than themselves, this is the place to be.”

Cowboys look to rebound with 3 nonconference tests

633 N. Husband

N ha n Doan staff reporter @t r on g n han n 2 5

The Oklahoma State men’s tennis team was served a wake-up call in Seattle last weekend.

OSU (9-3) had an impressive start of the season, but it struggled against top-tier programs in Seattle, exiting the ITA Indoor national championship with a 1-2 record.

Udwadia said the opportunity to compete against tough opponents helps the Cowboys prepare for conference matches later this season.

“I thought that was a great opportunity to play against the nation’s best teams,” Udwadia said. “I think it is going to prepare us well, especially in the Big 12 season when we have to face the teams in that level. Overall, it was a good week for us.

We learned a little bit, and we will be tougher because of it.”

After a set of tough matches, the Cowboys look to rebound as they return to Stillwater this weekend.

OSU faces Omaha at 5 p.m.

Friday, and it meets SMU and Oral Roberts on Sunday.

Udwadia said the Cowboys are eager to get back to their winning ways.

“We took a little time off after Seattle to rest our bodies,” Udwadia said. “Now, it’s time to get back on the horse and compete again. We have a target on our chests

for any teams that come here, and we will come out ready to go.”

Senior Julian Cash didn’t have a memorable weekend in Seattle, but he returns to Stillwater with encouragement. He and his doubles partner, Luke Hammond, made the ITA doubles rankings for the first time this season, coming in at No. 38.

Cash credits the time the two spent working together at his house in England during winter break for making them a better duo.

“It has been a slow start for us,” Cash said. “Levelwise, we know we can be good, but it just wasn’t quite clicking at the start through the summer and fall matches.

That’s why he came down in Christmas, so we can try (to) work on basic stuff and try to get it going. It has been looking positive for us, and we are looking to achieve some of the goals we set out (to reach) at the start of the

season.”

Sunday is the second time the Cowboys will compete in a doubleheader this season.

They swept Lamar and Bryant to open the match season. Udwadia said he is going to rotate the lineup Sunday, as Brady Draheim and Eleftherios Theodorou are expected to compete in singles matches.

“We will have different guys coming in and out,” Udwadia said. “It will (be) fun to have the whole team to prepare for the weekend and get these matches played by everyone.”
