Suspicious vehicles On Feb. 27, a Toyota was spotted idling near the entrance to Discovery Loop. The officer noticed that it had been there for several hours but was unable to contact the owner.

No further action was taken.

On Feb. 23, an officer was dispatched to the Dee Events Center by a call that stated a vehicle was parked oddly and seemed suspicious. When the officer arrived, they could not locate the vehicle with that description.

Suicide crisis The Mobile Crisis Outreach Team said they had received a suicide threat from University Village. The officer made contact with the in-

dividual and made sure they had a responsible party to look after them while the officer cleared with the individual with MCOT. The individual was then taken to McKay Dee hospital involuntarily with a pink sheet, which is used when a family member or responsible party knows the person is a danger to themselves or others and wants them to seek medical or mental help, even if the individual does not volunteer to get help.

Unconscious A female needed medical attention after an officer at the campus vaccine clinic reported she was unconscious. Officers were able to get her to drift in and out of consciousness for a while. Once she came to, she reported that this has happened multiple times before. Individuals were able to help her make it to her car and no further action was taken.

Car Crash On Feb. 23, a two-vehicle accident occurred in the W5 lot. Vehicle one was driving down the parking lane and vehicle two was attempting to turn right after checking both ways. Vehicle one struck the front passenger side of vehicle two. Vehicle one’s driver said that there was a large vehicle parked in the last stall which made them unable to see.

A witness spoke with the officer and said that vehicle one did not seem to stop after they attempted to turn left. The witness wrote a statement about the incident, and the report was filed.

STORYTELLING FESTIVAL

By SARAH EARNSHAW Videography Editor

The Moyes College of Education is celebrating the telling of stories at Weber State University for 25 years for 25 days in a new online format for the college’s annual Storytelling Festival.

The festival, which began Feb. 22, is normally held in person over a course of three days. During the planning stage, the festival’s committee was faced with having to hold the festival online this year and a need to get creative for the festival’s 25th year.

As a solution to the problem the pandemic poses, the committee came up with an idea to host the event in an advent-style format where a few stories would be released each day over the course of 25 days.

GOES ONLINE

The stories are being posted daily on the festival’s website until March 18.

Though the festival was not held in its traditional format, the committee said this online format will reach a broader audience.

Normally, elementary schools would take a field trip to the festival and would only have the opportunity to see one day. This year, schools have the ability to watch it in their classrooms.

“I’ve talked to a couple of teachers that usually would not have taken their students to the festival that are accessing this because they don’t have to take their students,” David Byrd, the chair of the festival, said.

Byrd said that districts are limited to the amount of field trips they can do in a year.

With this new format, schools can participate

without using it as a field trip.

“I have a daughter who is a teacher in another state and I sent her the link to be able to use and told her to share it with her coworkers,” Tammy Bush, the festival’s administrative assistant, said.

Although he has not seen the amount of viewers for the entire event yet, Byrd said that he saw a huge uptick in the amount of viewers in one day. Because of this, Byrd plans to incorporate parts of this year’s event into future years.

The festival will be held in person over a course of three days next year, but the committee plans to find a way to record the storytellers and broadcast or archive them for those who cannot attend the event in person.

“It’s fun to me as we’ve brought the festival online this year, to come into your home or

your classroom, and to have you come into mine,” Sam Payne, Weber State’s storyteller, said right before he presented his first story of the event, Ghost Dog. The festival had to cancel their annual fundraising banquet due to the pandemic.

The banquet is used to partially fund the current year’s festival and the next year’s festival.

Byrd said that since the event is online, the festival saved on some costs and the lack of a banquet should not cause problems for next year’s event.

“It didn’t cost as much this year since we didn’t have to pay for facilities, we didn’t have to pay for housing for the visiting tellers, so a lot of our costs were down,” Byrd said.

‘CATS QB BARRON NAMED BIG SKY OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

By MILES SHAW

Asst. Section Editor

Freshman quarterback Bronson Barron was named the Big Sky Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in Weber State’s 49–21 win in Pocatello on Feb. 27.

Barron completed 17 of 27 passes for 312 yards and 4 touchdowns.

The game was Barron’s first as a Wildcat and his first football game in three years.

Barron attended American Fork High School where he was a two-year starter for the Cavemen. He set the school record for single-season passing yards with 3,697 while tossing 44 touchdowns his senior year.

After signing with WSU in February of 2018, he served a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Ghana.

“I was in Ghana, West Africa, and there wasn’t that many resources to work out,” Barron said. “So it was definitely tough getting back into physical shape, especially being out from football for so long. I’m just so excited to be playing football again.”

Barron’s first touchdown of the game was when he hit Josh Davis running across the middle for a 27-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

“I thought Bronson did a good job of man-

aging things, but the most important thing with our quarterback and Bronson right now is you’ve got a lot of weapons around you,” Jay Hill, head football coach, said. “So to be a great quarterback, your job is to distribute the ball and get it to those playmakers in space where they can do something with it.”

Barron’s second touchdown was a 55-yarder on a reverse flea flicker to David Ames.

“The coaching staff did a great job of getting me to where I need to be at,” Barron said.

“Coach Hammer did a great job of helping me get prepared, and he was the one who was in my ear coaching me up throughout the whole process.”

Rashid Shaheed caught two touchdowns from Barron in the third quarter. The first, a 38-yarder down the sideline, and the second, a 10-yard pass into the front corner of the end zone.

Barron and Randall Johnson were both listed on the team’s depth chart at QB for the season opener at Idaho State, but Barron appears to be the starter moving forward after his game in Pocatello.

Barron said his O-line, wide receivers and fellow quarterbacks all were to thank for his success after Feb. 27’s game.

Weber State football has moved up in the national rankings after a dominating 49–21 road win against Idaho State in Pocatello on Feb. 27.

This one-of-a-kind spring football season is record-breaking after the Wildcats jumped from the No. 4 rank to No. 2 in the most recent stats from the FCS Top 25 released on March 3.

“We’re grateful for the No. 2 spot,” senior linebacker Conner Mortensen said. “It’s some-

thing we’ve acknowledged, and we’re just looking to keep pushing forward and keep proving that we deserve that spot.”

The Wildcats received four first place votes and are trailing James Madison University.

JMU sits at 2–0 for the start of the season.

Leading into week three of spring play, the Wildcats were ranked at No. 4 when they were 0–0 and North Dakota State University was at No.1 until they fell to Southern Illinois University. SIU handed NDSU their first loss since 2017 and snapped their 39-game winning streak.

“Our players know where we’re at. They understand it,” Jay Hill, head football coach, said.

“We’ll take every day one day at a time and see if we can find a way to get better each day.”

As of March 1, the top five ranked teams in FCS are the previously mentioned JMU (2–0) at No.1, moved up from No. 2; Weber State (1–0) at No. 2; Northern Illinois University (1–1) at No. 3, who moved up from No. 5; North Dakota (2–0), who has had the largest leap in rankings after being at No. 14 and is now sitting at No. 4 after they defeated South Dakota State on Feb. 27; and Villanova (0–0),

who moved up one spot from No. 6.

Weber State was scheduled to have a road game and travel down to Cal Poly on March 6 before it was postponed to April 17 due to COVID-19. The Wildcats will have a bye week before hosting UC Davis on March 13 at Stewart Stadium in Ogden.

Putting Student Through nominations have begun at Weber State University. These awards are a commemorative way for graduating students to recognize the people they feel have supported them unconditionally throughout their time at the university.

Usually, the ceremony is held in the ballrooms, and honorees are able to bring their families to enjoy the moment. The vice pres-

ident of student affairs hosts, and the stage also welcomes President Brad Mortensen and other university members to shake the hands of honorees as they walk the stage. They are also given honorary diplomas or certificates to thank them.

Weber State University’s Student Association provided the opportunity for students to attend the Student Body President debate via Zoom on March 1. Candidates were asked five questions regarding their candidacy and the vision of their office by Makenna Dillingham of the Walker Institute before attendees also asked their questions.

Currently, there are three Weber State University students running for the position of student body president. The three students are current Student Body President Ben Ferney, current Student Body Vice President of Leadership Hannah Olsen and WSU economics major Shane Weaver.

Elections ended at noon on March 4. The

winners will be announced March 5.

The debate centered around timely topics, such as COVID-19 and what that means for a the current school year at WSU. In addition to addressing how a student body president’s office should operate now due to COVID, more traditional topics were brought up in the debate as well. Each candidate focused on the role of student body president, what actions and responsibilities the position brings and how they would operate if they are elected.

Dillingham asked each candidate, in no specific order, the same question, ensuring that each candidate had a chance to answer.

To kick off the debate, Dillingham asked, “What would you say is the key to effective leadership as the president of Weber State University’s Student Association?”

All of the candidates were respectful in their

responses, and each candidate had a unique personal take on this rather general question.

Olsen focused on stability and student outreach, open communication and dedication to WSU as a higher educational institution.

“The past year it feels like there’s a lot of cancellations or another thing we were hopeful for that’s not going to be able to happen, so I really think next year we need stability,” Olsen said.

Weaver focused on having a plan, being able to recognize errors and growing from admitting faults and taking criticism with humility.

“Anyone who wants this position must be ready to be called a failure even when they did everything right,” Weaver said.

Ferney, WSU’s current student body president, spoke about some of the ways that he

has reached out to the student body in the past, such as “Feedback with Ferney” and “A Bagel on Ben.” “The phrase ‘people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care’ really comes to mind when I think of effective leadership,” Ferney said.

Some of the other questions asked were what their first 100 days in office would look like if they were elected president, how they will spend their summers preparing for their role as president and what they thought the WSU student body’s current biggest challenge is.

“In response to students’ challenges,” Ferney said, “if I had to use one word, I’d say ‘connection,’ and not only now with the extra struggles of COVID-19, but always.”

Olsen focused more on providing an open

Student Body President candidates debated on March 1 ahead of the election.

door of communication with student leaders and the student body, including marketing WSUSA to the student body.

“I’ll admit we lose contact with some students,” Olsen said. “I have no idea what that would be like to only come to campus just to go to class, and I want to make sure we need to talk to those students and say, ‘Hey, what is something that will get you to not just go home after class?” and if they say, “Free food

and a T-shirt,” we’ll do that. The biggest issue is involvement and connection.”

While Weaver took a different approach than his opponents, stating that neither connection or involvement is the biggest problem at WSU; instead, he believes it’s graduation rates and the increase of educational improvements of the students’ experience.

“The biggest issue right now is that the Student Association and Weber State is failing our

friends,” Weaver said. “Right now, our school’s college retention and graduation rate is falling by over 10% of the national average, more than one-third of full-time and more than one half of part-time students do not finish their degree. Our problem is momentum,” Weaver said.

While many different issues were approached in different ways by the three candidates, one thing common in all of them is

their dedication to the successes of WSU and its student body.

Weber State’s Zahir Porter leads the Wildcats in 3-point shooting percentage.

By MILES SHAW

Asst. Section Editor

The Weber State men’s basketball team holds the second best record in the Big Sky Conference at 16–5 overall and 11–3 in conference play.

The team rebounded after a disappointing 2019-20 campaign that saw the Wildcats go 20–12 and 12–8 in the Big Sky. The turnaround for head coach Randy Rahe’s squad is due to an almost completely new roster this year with nearly half the team being transfer players.

Five of the team’s top players transferred to Weber State in 2020: Isiah Brown, Seikou Sisoho Jawara, Zahir Porter, Cody Carlson and Dontay Bassett.

All five players are also shooting over 30% from 3-point range, leading the Wildcats to be the fifth-best 3-point shooting team in the nation with the team hitting 39.96% of its triples.

Senior guard Brown is leading the Wildcats in scoring with 18.0 points per game.

Brown came to WSU after playing two sea-

sons in Evanston, Illinois for Northwestern University, and then another year at Grand Canyon University where he put up 9.3 points and dished out 1.7 assists per game for the Antelopes during the 2019-20 season.

The 6-foot-2-inch guard has been a player who can get difficult buckets to fall this season for the Wildcats — including a game-winning layup on Feb. 27 at Sacramento State to extend a WSU win streak to five games.

In seven games this season, Brown has gone for over 20 points. In the Wildcats’ first two games of the season, he put up 26 and 29 points. In January he scored 22, 22 and 26 points against Tarleton State and in back-toback games vs. SUU. His season high came at the Dee against Northern Arizona when he dropped 31 on the Lumberjacks.

The Wildcats’ leader in assists is sophomore guard Sisoho Jawara. He has averaged 3.2 per game this season.

The Mataro, Spain native transferred to WSU following his freshman season at Loyola Marymount University. He averaged 4.4 points and 1.4 assists during his lone season

with the Lions.

Sisoho Jawara’s not only been passing the ball for the Wildcats he’s also had scoring outbursts of 25 and 23 points against Idaho and Montana State while averaging 11.5 points per game on the season.

Porter, Wildcats junior guard, played last season at Netflix-famous Independence Community College in Kansas.

Porter’s second on the team in scoring; with 12.8 points per game, he’s also leading the Wildcats in 3-point percentage, shooting 44.9% from the 3-point line. He scored his season high of 24 points at Viking Pavilion vs.

Portland State.

The Wildcat big men have been game changers for the team this season.

Senior forward Carlson from Duluth, Minnesota played for Concordia University, St. Paul in Division II, before transferring to WSU where he’s putting up 9.8 points and 5.0 rebounds per game.

WSU’s senior center, Bassett, out of Oakland, California transferred to the Wildcats from the University of Florida. He played three seasons in Gainesville for the Gators

before heading to WSU. He’s averaging 9.8 points and 4.4 rebound per game for the Wildcats.

This season Rahe has talked about how having big men who can shoot from the perimeter really lets the offense attack teams in multiple ways.

Bassett is shooting blank 33.3% from beyond the arc, while Carlson is shooting 48.0% from deep.

The Wildcats will head north to Boise on March 10, with a Conference Championship in mind along with a possible NCAA Tournament berth which comes with being the best of the Big Sky Conference.

The Wildcats have made the Big Dance three times under Rahe: 2007, 2014 and 2016.

But first, the Wildcats return to the Dee Events Center on March 4 and 6 to play Northern Colorado in the team’s final two regular-season games of the 2020-21 season.

Southern Utah University’s men’s basketball team has the Big Sky’s top scoring offense.

THE T-BIRDS ARE FLYING HIGH INTO THE BIG SKY TOURNAMENT

By TYLER HASLAM Reporter

Weber State University’s in-state foe, Southern Utah University, has only lost three games this season and boasts the Big Sky’s top scoring offense at just over 85 points per game and is possibly the conference’s best rebounding team. Southern Utah also owns the Big Sky’s top scoring margin, beating its opponents by an average of almost 16 points per game.

The Thunderbirds are currently 17–3 overall and 10–2 in conference play, with two games against sixth-place Portland State left to play.

This season’s conference and overall records for Southern Utah are vast improvements

from last season’s 17–15 overall record and 9–11 conference record.

Southern Utah possesses one of the more active defenses in the Big Sky. The Thunderbirds force nearly 14 turnovers per game and are second in the conference with just over seven steals per game.

Four Thunderbird players average over 12 points per game, led by junior guard Tevian Jones, who scores just over 17 points per game. Jones is one of the best shooters in the Big Sky, with a 3-point shooting percentage of 34%. This is Jones’ first season at Southern Utah after transferring to Cedar City from the University of Illinois, a top-10 ranked program in college basketball.

Junior forward Maizen Fausett is second on the team, scoring at 14.2 points per game.

Fausett’s motor and strong build have helped him lead the team in rebounding despite being relatively undersized at 6-foot-6-inches.

Fausett was the top scorer each time Weber faced Southern Utah, with an average of 19.5 points in the two games against the Wildcats.

The ‘Cats split their season series against the Thunderbirds, but handed Southern Utah its worst loss of the season when they beat the Thunderbirds by 24 points in Ogden on Jan. 21. Southern Utah did a great job learning from its two conference losses to Weber and Eastern Washington, as it beat both teams the second time facing them.

Southern Utah and Weber State are the only teams in the conference that are still undefeated at their home gyms. The Thunderbirds are 14–0 and the Wildcats are 10–0.

Their ability to improve, strong offense and efficient rebounding effort will make the Thunderbirds a tough out for any team they face in the Big Sky Tournament. If the standings hold as they are currently, barring any unexpected upsets, Weber State will likely have to face off against Southern Utah for a third time in order to get to the championship game of the conference tournament.

By EMILY MILLER Reporter

The Eastern Washington Eagles have plucked their way through the Big Sky Conference regular season play and have remained in first place.

The Eagles are currently 11–2 in conference and 12–6 overall. They play strongest at home, where they are 6–1, but have struggled on the road, currently sitting at 6–5. EWU is currently on a 9-game winning streak.

EWU was set to hit the hardwood against Weber State on Jan. 7 and 9 at the Dee Events Center in Ogden before both games were canceled. The last matchup between the two

schools was on March 7, 2020, where EWU beat the Wildcats 78–69.

Kim Aiken Jr. has done most of the heavy lifting so far this season. Aiken was dubbed a pre-season All-Big Sky Conference selection and has received back-to-back Big Sky Conference Player of the Week.

The Eagles swept the University of Montana in their most recent games on Feb. 18 and 20. Between the two games, Aiken averaged 65.4% of his overall shots. He made 7 of his 11 attempted 3-pointers and 17 of his attempted 26 from the field. Both nights ended in a score of 90–76 against the Grizzlies.

Michael Meadows had a combined 34 points through the sweep of the Grizzlies.

Meadows scored the second highest amount of points on both nights behind Aiken. Combining both games, Meadows made 12 of 18 attempts from the field, 3 of 4 attempted 3-pointers and 7 of 9 attempted free throws.

Eastern Washington had a bye week after facing the Grizzlies and prepared to take on the Idaho State Bengals at Reese Court in Cheney, Washington on March 3 and 5. The Eagles have proven strong on their home court and have a record of 10–1 at home against ISU. The last matchup between the two was on March 5, 2020, where EWU dominated in a 100–77 win.

The Eagles are going into the final week of regular season on a four-sweep winning

streak.

If they can complete their fifth straight sweep, they will collect their second straight Big Sky Conference regular season title before heading up to Boise, Idaho to compete in the postseason Big Sky Conference tournament.

Behind the Eagles, Southern Utah University is in second place, and Weber State is in third place.

A sign placed to signify the future home of the Dumke Arts Plaza.

By KIERSTYNN KING Reporter

Ogden City Arts held a groundbreaking event for the new Dumke Arts Plaza on Facebook live Feb 26.

The Dumke Arts Plaza will be located behind the Bigelow Hotel and Apartment building, at the corner of 25th Street and Ogden Avenue — the heart of the Nine Rails Creative District in downtown Ogden.

The plaza will be home to a variety of art events and installations. According to Todd Oberndorfer, chair of the Ogden City Arts advisory committee, Weber State University will provide curated art installations. The plaza will also provide a space for intimate concerts and film screenings.

Oberndorfer said the plaza will also be available for everyday gatherings — a place to eat lunch, meet a friend or visit with family.

“There is a large desire for the arts to be

more seamlessly integrated into daily life, rather than only a thing people seek out,” Oberndorfer said. “This space is an opportunity to make that a reality by seamlessly integrating arts and experience.”

The plaza’s construction is set to be finished in October, along with a ribbon cutting ceremony.

The plaza is a partnership with Ogden City, the Dr. Ezekiel R. and Edna Wattis Dumke Foundation, Ogden Contemporary Arts and

Weber State University.

Sasaki, Union Creative Agency, Io LandArch and Ogden City were all part of the design team for the plaza.

The plaza is being named after the Dumke family due to their foundation’s generous support, in addition to their legacy and engagement in Ogden.
