Ultimate ROTC cadet spends intense summer in country of Georgia Savannah Evanoff @SavannahEvanoff

Editor’s Note: Due to a printer error, this story was excluded from Wednesday’s paper. Most students spent their summer soaking up the sun, working retail or playing volleyball. One student spent a grueling summer climbing mountains in 90-degree weather with the Georgian Armed Forces eating a diet of mostly bread. Participating in the Cultural Understanding and Language Proficiency program (CULP), this cadet of the Oklahoma State Reserve Officer Training Corps, (ROTC) was sent to the Republic of Georgia to endure the Chatterie Mountain Training School for an unforgettable summer. Cadet Evans. Amber Evans, an animal science junior and member of OSU ROTC, climbed mountains with a foreign country’s army and acts as if it’s no big deal. “The landscape in Georgia is very beautiful,” Evans said. “I loved getting to interact with Georgians and learn about their culture.” Despite being physically demanding, Evans said the trip was fun, and she built strong friendships while there. “You meet so many people so fast and make such good friends because you are in such high pressure situations together,” Evans said. “It’s a unique bond that’s hard to describe.” Evans said each day they would learn a different skill

– all very challenging. One day it would be learning to tie different knots, another would be how to climb a fixed rope and the next climbing a mountain. Lt. Kevin Nicholas, professor and department head of military science, said Evans thought the trip was going to be routine stuff. “Some cadets for three weeks were sitting in a classroom teaching English,” Nicholas said. “She was roe barging, learning mountain climbing and scaling up and down rock faces.” To add to an already difficult situation, Evans was one of only four women on the trip. “It is an extremely rare thing for a female to go through this kind of training,” Nicholas said. But Evans is not your average woman. Evans thrives in the military environment, excels in academics and developed a passion for leadership with the guidance of her ROTC superiors. Michael Dale, the OSU ROTC enrollment and scholarship officer, has been highly impressed with Evans’ ROTC career and said she is exactly the kind of officer the army is looking for. “Everything she touches turns to gold,” Dale said. Evans, too, must have come to this conclusion because she is now contracted with the United States Army. Although participating in freshman and sophomore year ROTC courses holds absolutely no military obligation, Evans chose to continue and will begin active duty as soon as she

completes veterinary school, to which the army will provide an educational delay. “I’d rather do this every day than one weekend a month,” Evans said. Although Evans loves being involved with ROTC and the Army, a younger Evans might have said something different. “In my senior year of high school, they pulled me out of class and told me I should go to a presentation on West Point,” Evans said. “I was like, ‘I’m not interested in being in the Army.’” Even when Evans entered the ROTC classroom her freshman year, she said she took one look at the people in uniforms around her and

told her instructor, ‘I don’t think I’m in the right place.’ She could not have been more wrong. Evans has become the ultimate ROTC cadet, participating on the ROTC varsity sport Ranger Challenge team multiple times, acting as commander and coordinator for color guard, holding membership with the National Society of Pershing Rifles and leading a weekly Bible study group for ROTC members called Iron. Evans says she loves being involved with ROTC and has had many experiences that most college students would not get to. With this, she could be referring to her

color guard events where she has met former U.S. President George W. Bush, Toby Keith and attended Oklahoma City Thunder games. Or she could be referring to her intense three weeks spent in the country of Georgia. “She didn’t just go through it,” Nicholas said. “She earned the full certificate just like any of the other Georgian military would.” So at 6 a.m., it would not be uncommon to hear the pitter-patter of footsteps jogging outside your dorm room. Among this group of joggers might be Amber Evans because for her, jogging at

JACKIE’S 6-PACK: Super Bowl edition Jackie Dobson @OColly

Boston Lager

Tom Brady — Is there a bigger household name in beer or football? I think not. This was the easiest pairing for me. It’s my favorite beer and my most loved quarterback, even if it’s just for his dreamy eyes.

Noble Pils

Bill Belichick — Since his return to the Patriots, Bill Belichick has coached the team to three Super Bowl championships. The last was in 2004. The crisp hoppy tones in the Noble Pils should help him step up his game to win his fourth.

It’s the big game weekend, and that means some big beer drinking. I decided to dedicate this six pack to three important members of each Super Bowl team. Now, bear with me, I chose only beers from two breweries: Sam Adams, brewed in Boston and Red Hook Brewery, brewed in Washington. Now spend this weekend drinking like these champions and enjoy crying during the new Budweiser commercial. Tune in next week for a six-pack revamp: Six Pack on Tap.

Irish Red

Rob Gronkowski — This Irish Red doesn’t mess around and neither does Rob Gronkowski. This red ale is especially hoppy, there’s no way you can miss its presence. Much like Gronkowski’s presence on the field.

Long Hammer IPA

Russell Wilson — Russell Wilson can’t be stopped. You’ll never want this IPA to stop flowing. It has the winning flavor to keep you around and the undying charms to make you keep picking it up, sound familiar?

Audible Ale

Pete Carroll — As the coach and executive vice president of the Seahawks, you can bet Pete Carroll calls all the plays. This ale isn’t new to calling all its own shots. It’s bold and smooth, a beer you’ll always want to be in charge.

KCCO Black Lager

Marshawn Lynch — This lager won’t need to do any talking either. This is an inyour-face beer with a smokey aroma and a perfect blend of spices. This beer is almost as beast mode as Marshawn Lynch himself.

FOREVER FIGHTING: Langford finds purpose in gym on to the next class.’” Langford is the one teaching, but he might also be the one who has learned the most. “God puts you on these journeys to learn at the end of the day, this wasn’t about me,” Langford said. “This failure, it was about learning to help somebody else.”

Editor’s note: This is the third of a three-part series. Visit ocolly.com to read “Forever Fighting” in its entirety. REBIRTH It’s fascinating, the factors that shape a life. It starts with intangible genealogy. Environment. Socioeconomic status. Then we become citizens of our own experience — love and heartbreak, hopes and failures, a range of moments and memories good and bad that shape our inner psychology. It’s believed that a child’s first four years are the most important in terms of formation, yet anyone who has lived knows we never stop adapting. Maybe we don’t change, not the intangibles of who we are, but the way we act and react never stop transforming; our attitudes and beliefs, goals and priorities, in some cases the way in which we live. In the summer of 2011, Jevon Langford began giving free boxing lessons at Boomer Lake. He had six pupils. They all used the same old gloves and trained with Langford and his $10 boxing mitts. Slowly, the group started to grow. People such as Kari Quigley, a middle school math teacher in Stillwater, saw people training and asked what was happening. Quigley gave it a try, got hooked and has been

working with Langford for 2 ½ years. “He’s a great motivator,” Quigley said. “It’s like having a personal trainer … You want to work harder and push yourself and do better for yourself and for him.” Langford went to OSU strength coach Rob Glass and asked whether there were any way he could lend any training equipment. Langford said he got eight orange cones. “This is when you realize you ain’t nothing no more,” Langford said.

He started saving his money, eating cans of beans for every meal. He got assistance from the NFL’s dire needs fund. He worked odd jobs, applied the lessons he learned from counseling, alcohol classes and the Bible. He started charging a small fee for his classes and held on to a dream. Langford deciphered the roots of his problems. He began to understand his past. In the process, he developed a vision for his future. “When a man stop

dreamin’, stop hopin’, that’s when he’s in a really bad situation,” Miller said. “Jevon, he always had a dream. He always had a hope.” In 2012, Langford rented the storefront he now calls JRAUK Boxfit. He made it a fitness program to help everyday people. He focused his lessons on building mental toughness and having a positive attitude. Soon, he said, his business started booming. Now he has more than 40 clients. The business isn’t the only thing that has grown.

Quigley said she has watched Langford grow as a person, shedding his rough exterior, becoming a better teacher and crafting friendships with his clients. “I haven’t seen the life before he got here,” Quigley said. “But I have seen in 2 ½ years how he has grown as a person in terms of being able to communicate and caring about people and trusting, letting us into his life. He has opened up to where he does care about you, your family. “It’s not just, ‘Here’s a workout, pay for it, then go

Jevon Langford has been many things in his life. But he wants you to know he is not a fool. He knows his circumstance is the result of his decisions. Some mistakes, like the ones that have separated him from his children, haunt him every day. He doesn’t want to pin excuses on anyone else. He does, however, want to serve as an example of what can happen in what he calls an increasingly broken system. “You put everything in one basket to make it to the NFL,” Langford said. “And if you do make it, but you’re lacking something else — an education, another career — you are going to fail.” He says big-time college athletes are treated like meat. He knows from experience. He barely got by academically at OSU, recruited despite barely meeting academic standards, allowed to keep coming back despite flunking out. PAGE 4

When he went to the NFL combine, had his head and hands measured, showed off his physical abilities for hordes of NFL scouts, he couldn’t stop thinking about his ancestors. How slave traders placed a price tag on his peoples’ lives based on appearance and measurements. Many college coaches call some criticism unfair because people only put stake in wins and losses. But coaches get paid millions of dollars for that reason: To win football games. Langford said young athletes are pawns in a rigged game. “It’s no different than slavery,” Langford said. “You have to get the cream of the crop. A lot of the time where you’re going to get the cream of the crop is in these ’hoods.” Langford has experienced racism, seen the worst of the inner city. He went to the top, achieved his dreams, then threw it all away. Now he is clinging to his livelihood. He doesn’t want anyone to feel sorry for him. He said he doesn’t feel sorry for himself. All he wants is another chance. He wants to train, to coach. He has an idea for a reality show. Langford is a ghost of his

A Stillwater police officer shot and killed Ralph W. Willis, 42, Thursday afternoon on the 600 block of East Maple Avenue. Willis and police were involved in a foot chase that started at WalMart.

Police investigating officer-involved shooting Kaelynn Knoernschild @kaelynn_k

Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation is examining an officer-involved shooting that left one man dead Thursday afternoon. At 8:54 a.m. Thursday, Stillwater police responded to a structure fire at 115 W. Scott St., after firefighters discovered a body in a downstairs apartment, said Brian Porter, communications shift supervisor for Stillwater Police Department. Kirsten Minasian, who runs Professional Property Services LLC and rents out the apartments, said the deceased man was in his early 60s. Police have not released the man’s name. The upstairs tenant, Ralph W. Willis, 42, was

seen leaving his apartment where the fire started and became a person of interest, said Jessica Brown, OSBI public information officer, in a press conference Thursday. SPD spotted Willis in the WalMart parking lot on Perkins Road, where he began running once officers approached him, according to a press release issued by OSBI Thursday night. Officers pursued Willis on foot to 604 E. Maple Ave. where neighbors said he jumped the fence behind the house and was shot and killed by a police officer. “There was an aggressive move, we believe, made by the person of interest, and that’s when the officer fired the weapon,” Brown said. Multiple neighbors said they heard the gun shot. Next-door neighbor Missy Gelder said she

heard yelling, looked out her window and saw the man get shot by an officer. Brown said OSBI is investigating whether Willis had a weapon. Following reports of a Stillwater officer-involved shooting, Stillwater Junior High and Skyline Elementary were put on lockdown at 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, according to a release from Stillwater Junior High via email. Another person, Rachel Willis, who is also believed to have been involved in the foot pursuit, was arrested Thursday. “There is a woman behind bars arrested on (outstanding) warrants,” Brown said. “I believe she was in that same foot pursuit.” Oklahoma State University sent out a campus alert at 2:45 p.m., informing students of the structure

A 6-foot-7 forward from Dallas, Nash is a force to be reckoned with on the court. Nash earned Big 12 Freshman of the Year honors from the Associated Press in 2012. In his sophomore and junior seasons, league coaches named him to the All-Big 12 team. Nash is the leader in 20-point games among active players in the Big 12. He could become just the seventh player in Oklahoma State history to average doublefigures in all four seasons. Nash aims to lead the Cowboys to their third consecutive NCAA tournament appearance this season.

Bedlam present, not past, on Cowboys’ minds Nathan Ruiz @NathanSRuiz

The Cowboys have lost three straight Bedlam basketball games and five of the last six, but right now, they’re just focused on Saturday. When Oklahoma State (14-6, 4-4 Big 12) faces the Sooners at 7 p.m. in Gallagher-Iba Arena, coach Travis Ford will be focused on that game alone, not concerned about his team’s 82-65 loss in Norman earlier this month. “We’re worried about Saturday,” Ford said. “… We can’t be caught up in what happened last time and all that. We need to focus on what we need to do Saturday, not what we didn’t do before.” Home-court advantage will play a factor, as all four of the Cowboys’ conference wins have come at home. The GIA crowd has been critical to their success, Ford said, and they’ll need that support again with Oklahoma (13-7, 4-4) coming to Stillwater. “Hopefully, this place is packed,” Ford said. “We’re going to need it, no question. … Hopefully, we can really get a great crowd here and get this place rowdy. We need it, no question. That’s important when you’re playing at home.” On the court, Sooner guard Buddy Hield will be a focal point for the Cowboys.

The junior was a perfect 10-of-10 shooting with 27 points in the last Bedlam game. Heading into the contest, the OSU duo of Le’Bryan Nash and Phil Forte were the top two leading scorers in the Big 12 at 17.9 and 17.8 points per game, respectively. Hield sat in third at 17.1, but his Bedlam performance pushed him to the front of the conference, and he’s remained there since. “He’s one of the best players in the country,” Ford said. “He earned a lot of them. He did a good job. He can score — we know that. Very talented, hard worker, plays with a lot of passion. He’s very, very good.” However, the Cowboys know that Hield isn’t the Sooners’ only weapon. Forward Ryan Spangler had 11 rebounds and 11 points the last time he faced the Cowboys, while guard Jordan Woodard had 13 points, five rebounds and four assists in the game. “We can’t just worry about one guy,” point guard Anthony Hickey said. “It’s the Big 12. Every guy is important. He’s a big part of their team, but we’ve just got to stay in our gaps on defense. We’ve got to do our part. We’ve got to play our style of defense. “Sometimes, people make shots, and we’ve just got to move on and keep playing.” The Cowboys are mak-

ing their best effort to move from their loss in Norman, but Forte admitted that it’s one that sticks out in his and his teammates’ minds. His personal streak of 21 straight games with a 3-pointer came to an end in Norman. “Anytime you get beat by that margin, you’re going to remember that,” he said. “That’s what happens in this league if you don’t come to play. The scoreboard will reflect that.” After the game, OSU will be midway through its conference season. With more road games remaining than home games, Saturday’s matchup will be critical to the Cowboys’ hopes of making it into the NCAA Tournament. “I want to win every game,” Hickey said. “Every loss, I can’t get that game back. Now, we get to play OU again. It’s a chance for us to beat them in our home. They got us in their home, but we’re in our backyard.” sports@ocolly.com Up Next vs. Against: Oklahoma When: Saturday at 7 p.m. Where: Gallagher-Iba Arena TV: ESPN2

Daily Horoscope By Nancy Black Tribune Content Agency Today’s Birthday (01/30/15). Community networks prove key this year. Take advantage of lucrative opportunities, especially after 3/20. Partners have solutions for unexpected roadblocks in an intellectual adventure. Collaboration flowers after 4/8. Help others, and get assistance when needed. October eclipses bring a new phase in family finances despite shaky communications. Prioritize love over money. Savor what you have. Nurture your garden. 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 an 8 -- Take advantage of related buzz at work. A quick response may be required. A friend can get farther than you. Get creative! You’re up to the task. Listen carefully, and pick up the subtle innuendoes. Avoid confrontation. Charm skeptics. Taurus (April 20-May 20) -- Today is a 7 -- Prove you know what you’re doing. A creative idea doesn’t work. You may need to redo the work for free. Make necessary changes. Start a new approach. Watch for hidden agendas. Anticipate resistance. Learn what works through experimentation. Gemini (May 21-June 20) -- Today is an 8 -- Conclude an old arrangement. Let the metamorphosis happen naturally. Take leadership, and do what needs to get done. Family members offer support. Be careful not to overspend impulsively. Take care when testing a theory. Things may not work as planned. Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Today is a 6 -- Things could get uncomfortable. Find peaceful surroundings for best results. Think over consequences and consider details in your planning. Heed encouragement and advice from afar. If it’s good for the family, do it. Don’t fund a fantasy. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Today is a 7 -- Support friends and be supported. Avoid squabbles about love and money, although these topics may be hard to avoid. A confrontation or misunderstanding provides a hurdle in a group project. Keep your actions practical, rather than whimsical. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Today is an 8 -- Remember to consult with your partner, and avoid an argument at work. Review financial details privately. Keep digging and find the missing clue. Clean up a mess and finish an important job before you take off. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Today is a 9 -- Throw yourself into a project. Think and move fast. Make future plans, even if money’s tight. Charm your way around a problem. Be confident in your own abilities. Make sure you have the facts. Discover an error. Keep costs down. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Today is an 8 -- Your fame travels far and wide. Continue to work within the system respectfully. A confrontation could change things. Proceed with caution. More study is required. Angry words can get expensive. Don’t make assumptions. Be efficient, not destructive. Confer with family. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Today is an 8 -- Work takes precedence. Take advice from somebody who’s trying to give it to you. It’s a good time for transformations. Leave your money in the bank. Get out and exercise! Play with a friend and blow off steam. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Today is a 7 -- Work conditions are favorable over the long term, but could present breakdowns or errors now. Don’t be hasty. Cultivate compassion for others. Find out what the team thinks. You lack total agreement. Discipline is required. Your suspicions get confirmed. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Today is an 8 -- Take action now for a possibility that could pay in the future. In a temporary setback, keep a secret and your patience. Hold out for what you want. Write up goals. Consider consequences. Friends help you go the distance. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Today is a 7 -- Handle a home repair to last for the long haul. Avoid frills or unnecessary features. Find a great deal. Sort and organize, but don’t hide your housemate’s stuff or risk an outburst. Passions are close to the surface. Careful planning pays.
