Jerry Lucas, irst basket‐ ball player to win cham‐ pionships at the high school, college, pro and Olympic levels, now known as “Doctor Memory” spoke at Tif in University’s Good Morn‐ ing World breakfast on March 26 at Camden Falls Reception and Conference Cen‐ ter. He described the techniques he used to become a “basketball prodigy” as he’s been named by many others. Twelve to ifteen hours of practice making 5,000 shots a day that were speci ically aimed according to his visualiza‐ tion of the rim as a clock face only begins to explain the systems he created that made him a legendary player. “There was only one way to become better than every‐ one,” he said. “I was relentless in my effort to become a basketball player.”

zation focuses on discovering purpose as well as build‐ ing important relationships that can be bene icial for one’s social life and career by providing an array of meetings, classes and workshops that will enhance the knowledge of girls between the ages of 5 and 25. “I chose BeYOUtiful Girls because I was raised by my mother and sister. I’ve seen how hard it is for women to struggle. Seeing my mother and sister grow into these strong, beautiful women even in hard times is why I chose BeYOUtiful Girls,” he said. The concert will feature singing and dancing performed by the family and friends of David Driskill, including TU students and others from Driskill’s hometown of Cin‐ cinnati. Tickets will be $5 with all proceeds to go to the two charitable organizations. For more information, contact David Driskill at driskilldj@tif in.edu.

Lucas retired from the sport with three years left on his contract with the New York Knicks in 1974, and launched himself into a career in education with his memory train‐ ing and learning systems that he had begun creating dur‐ ing his childhood to occupy his active mind. Also, his fourth grade teacher’s method of teaching the names of the Great Lakes with visualization and mnemonics reso‐ nated throughout his academic and professional career. “I’ve spent 40 years of my life making everything children need to learn into visuals,” he said. His much awaited “Dr. M’s Universe” website will allow users to interact with educational topics made into a plan‐ etary system enabling them to give intangible items tangi‐ bility. Lucas’ mission to change the way people learn has also resulted in the authoring of over sixty books, creation of audio courses, overseeing of creation of videos and inter‐ active CD‐ROM games, and countless personal appearanc‐ es across the United States and around the world. 9

Sports News Baseball The Tif in University baseball team split a pair of games on Sun‐ day afternoon, beating Walsh Uni‐ versity 6‐5 in game one, but falling to the Cavaliers 12‐7 in game two. Logan Sendelbach took the mound in game one, and was under ire from the start. Sendelbach gave up four runs on three hits and an er‐ ror by the Dragons, but Logan was able to strand the bases loaded to avoid the monster inning. Walsh added another run in the 2nd on a couple of hits and an er‐ ror. This run was charged to new Dragon pitcher Michael Cooperider who relieved Sendelbach after an inning of work. The Cavs now led 5 ‐0. That run in the 2nd was the last for Walsh. Cooperider came after Walsh and dominated, inishing the game for the Dragons. On the other side, the Tif in offense started com‐ ing to life in the 3rd. The Dragons put two on with no outs via the walk. Elijah Sanabria then stole 3rd, and was knocked home by Nick Hueneburg with a sin‐ gle. Nick Calandra, standing at se‐ cond base, advanced to third on a wild pitch, and was chased home with a Cody Spires RBI groundout to the shortstop.

The inal run of the inning was sup‐ plied by Isaac Perry. With two down, Alex Hartley and Seth Bry‐ ant walked. Isaac Perry then ripped a single to score Hartley to make it a 5‐3 game. Tif in added three more runs in the next inning, starting with a single and a walk. An error by Walsh al‐ lowed Cole McCurry to scamper home. Elijah Sanabria crossed home on a Cody Spires sac ly to tie the game. Tif in took the lead for good when Walsh uncorked a wild pitch to allow Nick Calandra to score. Michael Cooperider picked up the win in relief, throwing 6 innings, giving up 6 hits, an earned run, and punched out 8 Cavaliers. At the plate, the Dragons only collected four hits, but showed great pa‐ tience by collecting 9 free pass‐ es.Cody Spires collected two RBIs with two sac lies. Game two turned into a slugfest, with both teams combining for 19 runs, 26 hits, and 7 walks. The scoring began in the very irst in‐ ning, as Walsh notched three runs on two hits, and two Tif in errors. The Dragons answered in the bot‐ tom half with two runs of their own. Tif in loaded the bases and

pushed home a run with a Cole McCurry ielder's choice ground out. Alex Hartley smacked a single to plate the other Tif in run, mak‐ ing it a 3‐2 game. Walsh used mother nature to push home three runs in the 2nd. With winds at Heminger Field gusting between 25‐30 miles per hour, a towering ly ball jumped on the jet stream and rode over the fence for a three run homer. The Cavaliers made it 7‐2 with a run in the 6th, but the Dragons got back in the swing of things in the bottom of the 6th with four runs of their own. It started with back to back doubles by Cody Spires and Hayden Spellbring, scoring Spires to make it 7‐4. Tif in then loaded the bases, and Isaac Perry slapped a single to make it 7‐ 5. Alec McCurry pinch hit for Tif in, and knocked home another run with a sac ly. The inal run came on a Nick Calandra single to make it a 7‐6 game. Walsh tacked on ive more runs, scoring in the 7th, two in the 8th, and two in the 9th. The Dragons plated their inal run in the 9th, making it a 12‐7 inal. Kyle Montell started for the Drag‐ ons, and took the loss. He pitched 7 innings, surrendering 11 hits, 9

TU won the opener in 5 innings 9‐0. Brown was sensational throughout the game, allowing just 3 hits and one walk while retiring 18 of 21 batters via punchout. With the wind gusting out to left ield, Brown's only mistake came on a pop ly that carried over the fence, tying the game at 1‐1 in the 5th in‐ ning. The Dragons wasted little time get‐ ting the lead back, as Michelle Poe blasted a two‐run home run in the 6th inning and Allyson Rock followed with a two‐run pinch hit home run in the 7th to provide the difference. Cassandra Brown andPayton Denman also had 2 hits in the game. In the opener, TU exploded for 6 runs in the irst inning and added 3 more in the third.

The Dragons also dom‐ inated the draw controls 13‐5. TU's offense did a good job spread‐ ing the scoring load around, as Alexis MacMillan had 3 goals and an assist with 3 ground balls. Morgan Sherley had 3 goals and an assist, while Tori Nel‐ son also had 3 goals and 7 draw controls. Gina Abulone continued her strong play of late, scoring 2 goals with 5 assists.Amanda Flotteron had 2 goals and an assist, while Emily Roussel added a goal and assist. Men's Tennis

TU's Lu‐ dena and Almeida played a solid match contrary to the score, but couldn't ind the correct formula to win. 2nd Doubles TU ‐ Lezama/Frery vs. NU ‐ Kon‐ stantin Zhukov/Henrik Hellbe The lone victory for the Dragons came at 2nd Doubles where Frery and Lezama got back on track to add another victory to the win col‐ umn 9‐7. It took a few extra games to accomplish the feat, but TU's freshmen duo was able to defeat NU's Zhukov and Hellbe to give the Dragons their irst and only point of the match. 3rd Doubles TU ‐ Mangone/Fernandes vs. NU ‐ Felipe C.Bastistella/Salikh Gilmutdinov Another close doubles match went south as Mangone and Fernandes lost a close 6‐8 decision.

De‐ spite Northwood's previous 1st Singles player Jean Menard gradu‐ ating, Eguez was up to the task of taking on Ludena who lost in straight sets 1‐6, 3‐6 after coming off of his foot injury. 2nd Singles TU ‐ Pierre Frery vs. NU ‐ Salikh Gilmutdinov Pierre Frery stepped up into the 2nd Singles spot, but fell to NU's Gilmutdinov 4‐6, 2‐6. Frery has had a tough season with most of his matches having at least one close set in them. Following suit he lost after a close irst set, but fell hard in set two. 3rd Singles TU ‐ Elio Lezama Perez vs. NU ‐ Austin Woody In a surprising loss, TU's Lezama lost 1‐6, 1‐6 to NU's Woody. The loss was quick and quite shocking, but the lone bright side is Lezama is only a freshman and is seeing what he has in store for him as he continues his career at TU. 4th Singles TU ‐ Agustin Magone vs. NU ‐ Kon‐ stantin Zhukov

Mangone was bumped up to the 4th Singles spot against North‐ wood where he posted a loss to Zhukov. Mangone lost 1‐6, 1‐6 in a match similar to Lezama's. Both losses were shocking due to the scores being so lop sided, but Man‐ gone is playing up a spot from pre‐ vious years which certainly makes a difference. 5th Singles TU ‐ Nicholas Almeida vs. NU ‐ Felipe C.Bastistella In possibly the closest singles match of the day for the Dragons, Almeida lost 5‐7, 3‐6 to C. Bas‐ tistella. Almeida played a very tight irst set which was decided by a lone break of serve. After bat‐ tling the entire set, C. Bastistella was able to pull out a few key points which gave him a huge 1 set lead. That con idence carried over into the second set and certainly pushed him towards his second set victory. 6th Singles TU ‐ Victor Fernandes vs. NU ‐ Ta‐ nini Kader TU's captain lost a 1‐6, 2‐6 decision to NU's Kader. Fernandes played tough, but the captain for the Drag‐ ons couldn't handle the freshman for Northwood. Both players played tough, but the ball doesn't always bounce your way and it cer‐ tainly bounced in favor of Kader on this day.

Women's Basketball Jason Mishler has been named Head Women's Basketball Coach at Tif in University, taking over for departing coach Pam Oswald. Mishler has spent the last four sea‐ sons as Head Coach at Malone Uni‐ versity, where he guided the team to a 55‐55 record. The team reached a high point in the 2013‐ 14 season, in which Mishler guided the program to a 21‐10 mark – the highest win total for the Pioneers since 2001‐02. Mishler also guided that Malone squad to Great Lakes Intercolle‐ giate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) Tournament road victories over fourth‐seeded Ashland University and top‐seeded Wayne State (MI) University before narrowly miss‐ ing out on an NCAA Division II Na‐ tional Tournament berth after fall‐ ing to Northern Michigan Universi‐ ty 53‐49 in the GLIAC Tournament Championship Game. "I am excited at the opportunity to coach at Tif in," said Mishler. "The program is headed in the right di‐ rection, and I look forward to working with the whole TU fami‐ ly." "I am excited that Jason Mishler is going to be Tif in University's next Women's Basketball Coach. I have known Jason since he was an assis‐

Mishler helped rebuild a Malone program that had went 12‐48 in the two seasons prior to his arrival. He helped them increase their win total from 12 victories in 2011‐12, to 14 wins in 2012‐13 (3rd in GLI‐ AC South) before posting the 21‐10 record in 2013‐14 (2nd in GLIAC South). A 2005 Malone graduate with a degree in Secondary Education, Mishler was a three‐year starter at point guard for the Pioneers. After graduating from Malone, Mishler worked for two seasons as the var‐ sity assistant boys basketball coach and the head junior varsity boys basketball coach at Hiland High School. He then worked two sea‐ sons for Tif in University as an as‐ sistant coach for the women's bas‐ ketball program, serving as Os‐ wald's irst assistant coach. In the fall of 2009, Mishler re‐ turned to serve as the varsity assis‐ tant boys basketball coach at Hi‐ land for two more seasons. In four seasons as an assistant coach for the Hiland boys program, Mishler helped the program to a record of 73‐18 and two appearances in the

state inal four, including a state title in 2011. In addition, he worked as an assis‐ tant basketball skill development instructor for Sports City Universi‐ ty in Huntington, West Virginia in the summer of 2009. He has also worked personally with Tom Jen‐ kins, the owner of Ohio Girls Bas‐ ketball Report, the nation's num‐ ber one single state recruiting ser‐ vice. Having trained hundreds of prospective female athletes at The Top 64 Basketball Camp in Den‐ nison, Ohio, Mishler has also de‐ signed and executed hundreds of individual workouts with the top Ohio High School female athletes in recent years. As a player, Mishler was an All‐ Ohioan and compiled a playing ca‐ reer record of 90‐11 at Hiland High School while earning three consec‐ utive berths into the D‐IV state semi inals. At Malone, he earned All‐AMC Second Team honors as a senior and Honorable Mention ac‐ colades in the two previous sea‐ sons. Jason, his wife, Michelle, and their daughter Perryn (4) and sons Jalen (2) and Jase (9 months) currently reside in Berlin, Ohio.

Further levels of licensure in Ohio and requirements are listed in the a achments and are available at the Ohio Chemical Depend‐ ency Professionals Board website:h p://ocdp.ohio.gov/ licensing.stm Most students will enter the license process in Ohio as a CDCA (two phases) and then move on to LDC III a er receiving a bach‐ elor’s degree in a behavioral science (note NON behavioral sci‐ ence degree students will obtain LCDC II.) Masters level de‐ greed persons in a behavioral science will also likely enter as a LCDC III and perhaps later mover towards LICDC. See handout and Ohio Chemical Dependency Professionals Board website for detailed requirements. License consists of mul ple requirements: ‐‐Degree (Behavioral Science degree, which can be Criminal Jus‐ ce, Psychology, Social, Counseling, etc.). Note NON behavioral science degree students will obtain LCDC II. See handouts and Ohio Chemical Dependency Professionals Board website for more info. ‐‐One year (2,000 hours) of chemical dependency counseling related compensated work or supervised internship experience (as CDCA) verified by supervisor. 180 hours of chemical dependency educa on in nine specific content areas (CSL courses cover these areas) TU courses meet

this requirement. See handouts and Ohio Chemical Dependency Professionals Board website for areas and form. 220 prac cal experience hours in the twelve core func ons.

Successful comple on of the ADC examina on Outside of Ohio The OCDP (Ohio) Board is a member of the Interna onal Cer fi‐ ca on and Reciprocity Consor um. Membership in the IC&RC requires a commitment to adhere to mul ‐faceted require‐ ments designed to ensure counselor competence. Counselors licensed in Ohio at the LCDC II level or above are eligible for reciprocity in the more than fi y states and countries that are members of the IC&RC, provided that same type and level of creden al is oﬀered. If you are OUTSIDE OF OHIO Your best bet is to check the Chemical Dependency Counselor Licensing board in your state for the requirements. Your TU degree will likely apply, but you will likely need more specific Chemical Dependency course‐ work/training. Some mes this can be accomplished through professional workshops (which may be online) but one would need to check with your "home" state board whom usually can provide a list of pre‐approved educa on providers: Other “Home” Boards: h p://www.naadac.org/cer fica on‐boards h p://professionals.interna onalcreden aling.org/boards As one can see there are many “paths” to licensure as a Chemi‐ cal Dependency Counselor and individuals cases can be unique – AND when in doubt or for assessment of eligibility please check your “home” licensure board.
