Student Success Paramount at TU
At Tif in University, it’s no secret that student success is paramount. That’s why TU is at the forefront of combating the national trend of declining retention rates among college students. It’s a fact that 1 in 3 irst-year college students in America won’t return to an institution of higher learning for their sophomore year. Of those who do return to pursue a 4-year degree, only 59 percent will graduate, according to a study by the National Student Clearinghouse. Dr. Vincent Tinto—Professor at In an effort to ensure TU keeps students Syracuse University—a renowned through graduation, TU faculty and staff expert on higher educa on, student attended a seminar, “Taking Student Suc- reten on, growth and a ainment. cess Seriously in the College Classroom,” presented by renowned retention expert, Dr. Vincent Tinto of Syracuse University. Tinto explained that even those who enter college con ident often encounter challenges from family demands, work and inancial dif iculties—challenges that weaken their senese of success. This is particularly true during the critical irst year as students seek to adjust to the heightened demands of college education. Faculty and staff play a key role in student retention. In the classroom, Tinto said students need to feel the material to be learned is of suf icient quality to warrant their time and effort which must come with a sense of high expectations from the professors. more

Student Success Paramount at TU (continued)
“Curriculum that is seen as unrewarding, irrelevant or of low quality will often yield the opposite result,” he explained. According to Tinto, those professors who require students to actively engage with each other in the pursuit of learning, especially when they have to apply their learning to concrete tasks or problems, have been shown to enhance motivation and improve classroom performance.
“The more students learn, the more they come to believe they can learn,” he added.
But the university experience in regard to retention goes beyond the classroom. Many students — particularly irst-year students — tend to continue their education when they feel a sense of belonging. “Institutions can promote students’ sense of belonging by promoting those forms of activity that require shared academic and social experiences,” Tinto said. “In the academic realm this can take the form of cohort programs, learning communities and cooperative learning. When properly implemented, this requires students to learn together in ways that include each group member as equal partners in the learning enterprise. In the social realm the institution can take steps to provide for a diversity of social groups and organizations that allow all students to ind at least one smaller community with whom they share a common bond.” Understanding the importance of high academic ideals in tandem with helping students feel that they “ it in” is vital to ensuring high retention rates. Tif in University’s focus of putting students irst, along with its proactive approach to the issue, ensures the institution will continue to strive to retain students from freshman year through graduation and beyond.
Change takes time. Too many give up on programs before they have time to bear fruit — Dr. Vincent Tinto

Men's Golf Tif in University's men's golf team proved that 2015 was no luke, as the Dragons won the 2016 GLIAC Men's Golf Championship for the second consecutive year at The Virtues Golf Club in Nashport, Ohio. The Dragons held off a hard charging Grand Valley State team in round three to win 892 -893, while Northwood was third with 909. The Dragons showed great consistency from the outset, posting a round one score of 298 to lead the ield. They increased their lead after round two to 5 strokes by shooting 299, and then inished in round three with a best of 295. Grand Valley, meanwhile, got better after each round, posting scores of 307, then 296, and inally 290 to come up just short. TU placed four golfers in the top 10, with Brett Green inishing 6th with 223 (74-7475), while John Tidenberg (75-75-74) and Jay Green (75-78-71) were tied for 7th with 224. Luke Schlicher was 10th with 225 (77-
73-75). Tyler Schepens brought up the rear but was only 5 strokes behind Schlicher with 230. It was that level of consistency, with only 7 strokes separating TU's 5 golfers that gave TU the title. Women's Lacrosse Tif in University (8-5, 6 -2 GLIAC) battled throughout the game, overcame a late de icit, and put the game away in sudden death overtime, beating 9thranked Grand Valley State 16-15 to have the Lakers their irst-ever GLIAC loss. After the Lakers took a 4-3 lead at the 21:47 mark of the irst half, the Dragons exploded for 5 straight goals, jumping ahead 8-4 with 14:28 left in the half. In what became a running theme in the game, the Lakers responded, scoring 3 unanswered goals to get within one score. TU ended up leading at the half 9-8. TU came out after the break with another furious run, scoring 4 straight goals to big their biggest lead at 13
-8. But then the physical play turned against the Dragons, who were whistled for 8 of the game's 12 yellow cards. Using man advantages, the Lakers crept back into it, scoring 4 straight goals to once again climb to within 13-12. With 17 minutes remaining, GV goalkeeper Sarah Zwilsky left the game with an injury after a collision behind the net. Backup goalkeeper Brianna DeMilia came in and kept her team in the game admirably, making 4 clutch saves while the Lakers scored 3 more goals to take a 15-14 lead with 6:00 left. A free position shot by Emily Roussel tied the score at 15-15 with 2:15 to play. After winning the draw, the Dragons played for a inal shot in regulation and appeared to score it with 1 second remaining on a free position shot by Roussel. But after a lengthy deliberation, the goal was disallowed, sending the game to overtime. The Dragons, disappointed with the deci-

Sports News continued sion, never let it slow them down, winning the draw again in overtime and scoring a brilliant goal from Tori Nelson off a sharp pass from Roussel at the 1:55 mark of overtime. TU's defense forced 17 Lakers' turnovers, while Grand Valley held a 34-27 shot advantage. The Lakers also converted just 7 of 13 free position shots while TU hit on 10 of 12 chances. Roussel had 5 goals and 2 assists along with 5 draw controls and 3 ground balls. Tori Nelson also had 5 goals with 1 assist and 6 draw controls. Amanda Flotteron had 4 goals and 1 assist, Morgan Sherley had 2 goals and 1 assist, and Amie Morrison had an assist. Kat Schneeberger made 10 saves over 61 minutes. Baseball The Tif in University baseball team split on Sunday, falling 2-1, but rebounding 4-3 for a 22 series split. Game One Pitching on both sides dominated the game,
but the Oilers were able to push two runs to the plate in the 2nd inning on three walks and a single. Tif in starter Kevin Borst hung around for 3 2/3 innings, surrendering four hits, two runs, and struck out two. Weylin Frisbie took over, holding the Oilers scoreless for the remainder of the game while striking out four. Tif in had numerous opportunities. In the 4th, the Dragons put runners at 2nd and 3rd with less than one out, but two strikeouts ended the rally. In the 6th, the Dragons were able to push a run across. A single by Kurt Barbeau and a double by Alec McCurry placed runners in scoring position. Nick Hueneburg drove home Barbeau on a sacri ice ly to center ield, cutting the de icit to 2-1. With runners still in scoring position, the Dragons wasted an opportunity to tie the contest, stranding both runners. In the 7th, Tif in again threatened, placing a pair of runners aboard, but two strikeouts put
an end to the Dragons' hope of a comeback. Kevin Borst took the loss on the mound, falling to 2-3 this season. At the plate, Alec McCurry inished 2 for 3, and Ryan Davis inished 2 for 3 with a double. Game Two The series inale saw more runs scored in the irst inning than were scored in both games on Saturday. The Dragons showed aggression early, forcing Findlay into defensive mistakes. Alec McCurry reached on an in ield single, and moved to 2nd on Isaac Perry's walk. McCurry swiped third, and raced home on the errant throw to third. Perry rolled into second after the error, and scored on another Findlay error to give Tif in a 2-0 lead. The Oilers responded a half inning later, scoring three runs on two hits, two hit batters, and a walk. Dragon starter Marc Deitsch recorded only one out before Kyle Montell was called upon to eventually pitch the Dragons out of the 1st.
For the next six innings, neither team was able to score, as Kyle Montell baf led Oilers throughout. The Tif in offense, trailing headed into the top of the 8th, supplied Montell with some runs. After a hit by Nick Hueneburg and another Oiler error, Kyle Durham delivered the goods, singling up the middle scoring Hueneburg and Garrett Vernau to give Tif in a 4-3 lead. Patrick Bellinger was called upon to put an end to the contest, hurling a perfect 9th for his 3rd save of the season. Montell picks up the win in relief, tossing 7 2/3 innings of ive hit no run baseball while striking out a pair. Kurt Barbeau inished 2 for 4 setting the table for Alec McCurry, Isaac Perry, and Nick Hueneburg. McCurry and Perry each inished 1 for 4 with a run scored and Hueneburg was 1 for 3 with a run batted in. The split moves the Dragons to 15-19 overall and 6-10 in GLIAC play. Softball

Carlin Kern was ifth for TU with 187. Track and Field Tif in University had numerous track and ield athletes competing across the country, with standout performances at Hillsdale's Border Battle in Michigan, the Beach Invitational at Long Beach State (Cal.), and the Mt. Sac Relays in California. At Hillsdale, numerous school records fell. For the women, Javean Douglas set a new school record in the hammer throw, taking 2nd with 191-1.

Toryko Grace also took irst and hit a provisional mark in the discus with 162-10.

Luis Ludena/ Toby Cutting started off hot this season and has slowly tapered off towards the middle half of this season and look to get back on track next week. 2nd doubles was much of the same as Hillsdale was on point and the Dragons faulted early. The captains Agustin Mangone/Victor Fernandes dropped early service games and fell 4-8. 3rd doubles was the lone win once again as Elio Lezama Perez/ Justin Kopronica took care of a quick 8-2 wins against Zach Rabitoy/ Jerry Hewitt of Hillsdale.

Sports News continued were aggressive from the early going and were able to get breaks early and often to go up early on Hillsdale and take the match. Singles 1st singles was all Dragons as Ludena showed the newly added Hillsdale tennis team what a strong player can do. A quick 6-0, 6-3 win was one of the better matches Ludena has played this year. 2nd singles was the lone singles loss for the Dragons as Lezama couldn't ind his stride during the match against Dugan Delp in a 2-6, 0-6 loss. 3rd singles got the Dragons back on track as one of their captains Agustin Mangone won a big 6-4, 6-3 match. Mangone has been tasked with moving up in the lineup and has taken the task head on with great leadership ability. 4th singles was closer than the Dragons would have liked as Toby Cutting took care of business with a close 6-4, 6-3 victory. Cutting came into the
match playing well at the 4th singles spot, even though he had a shaky start in both sets he closed out well and got the Dragons an insurance point. 5th singles featured the freshman Kopronica having a tough irst set only to take a quick second set and inish well. Kopronica won his irst set 6-4 on a lone break of serve and then exploded for a quick 6-1 victory to give the Dragons a big morale boost for their later matches. 6th singles was the captain doing what he does when Victor Fernandes defeated Jerry Hewitt 6-1, 6-2. Fernandes is having a standout year for himself with big match wins. Fernandes has been a reliable source for a singles victory throughout the season. The Dragons are now 13-9 overall and 5-1 in the GLIAC.
