Final Stats in PDF Format
AKRON, Ohio - The Northern Illinois softball team scored four runs in the seventh to tie Akron, 6-6, but could not ride the momentum to victory as the Zips (16-33, 5-12) scored a run in the ninth inning to win the Mid-American Conference game on Saturday afternoon at Lee R. Jackson Field.
Down 6-2 in entering the seventh, the Huskies (12-25, 6-9) used RBI singles from senior Krista McPherson (Beecher, Ill./Beecher) and Joreigh Landers (Vernonia, Ore./Vernonia) along with a two-run single by senior Michelle Nendza (Palos Park, Ill./Lemont Mt. Assisi) to knot the game at six.
"Outside of Michelle, we had no situational execution on offense," said NIU head coach Lindsay Chouinard. "That is why we lost the game today."
However, the Huskies were unable to get over the hump, losing the game on an RBI single by Akron's Sarah Earley in the ninth that ended the game in favor of the Zips, 7-6.
Before the Akron built a four-run advantage with a five-run fourth and a one-run sixth, Nendza gave NIU an early 2-0 lead by hitting a two-run homer in the first inning. Nendza's 10th blast of the year set a new NIU single-season record.
"Michelle has proven her offensive ability all season long," said Chouinard. "[The record] is just icing on the cake for a great senior campaign. She believes, adjusts, has tremendous bat speed and swings as hard as she can every time. She is the type of offensive producer that every coach wants on their team."
Zip pitcher Monica Shorter (1-0) received the win by pitching two scoreless innings and allowing only one hit. Akron starter Christina Swierz lasted seven innings, giving up five earned runs on seven hits with four walks.
Landers (4-6) was handed the loss for NIU after relieving starter Taryn Hagemann (Rochelle, Ill./Rochelle). Landers tossed 1.1 frames, allowing one earned run on three hits with two strikeouts. Hagemann pitched 6.2 innings, giving up five earned runs on 10 hits with a walk and a strikeout.
Nendza led the way for the Huskie offense with two hits and four RBI, while McPherson also added two hits, an RBI and a stolen base. Landers notched an RBI single to round out the scoring for NIU. Juniors Ashley Clement (Moline, Ill./Moline), Jenna Roberts (Verona, Wis./West) and Dani Thompson (Canyon Country, Calif./Canyon) each had a hit.
NIU Completes its road schedule with another game against Akron tomorrow at 12 p.m. CDT at Lee R. Jackson Field.

By Daniel Schultz
Look, it's not that Jim Wallis is wrong, exactly, in this blog post shilling for donations to Sojourners suggesting ways to address the latest round of unrest in the Middle East. He lays out three basic principles for U.S foreign policy in the region: religious extremism cannot be defeated by military means, it's best defeated from within, and with creative assistance from outside. As top-level bullet points, these are fine, if inevitably oversimplified.
Wallis being Wallis, he can't help developing them in his inimitable style. There's the smarmy confidence that if people would just sit down and talk together, they'd find common ground, goshdarnit, and solve all their problems. There's the belief that religious values—and only religious values—are the solution to every problem, so shut up you atheist rabble. There's the vaguely patronizing desire to "help" everyone while ignoring real differences and issues of justice, and with the "help" turning out to be both ineffective and a subtle advertisement for Sojourners. However nice billboards in Joplin, Oak Creek and Mufreesboro may be, they're probably not going to do much to provide hope in Libya or Syria or Yemen for a life without chronic unemployment, official repression, and state-sponsored violence.
But even setting all that aside, Wallis misses the easy shot: it's both fundamentally immoral and wildly unpopular for the U.S. to keep attacking various nations with drone missile strikes. Literally the fastest and easiest way to improve relations with Middle Eastern Muslims and "defeat the mindset and motives of terrorism" would be to stop blowing up civilians by remote control. Likewise, the fastest and easiest way to promote interfaith relations would be for American Christians to come out against the widespread use of drones.
Of course, any religious leader who wanted to take such a stand would inevitably have to come face-to-face with the fact that drone strikes have increased nearly six-fold under Pres. Obama, and that they enjoy widespread, bipartisan support, all of which might put some stress on that religious leader's friendly relationships with the president and other leaders. Much safer, in that case, to issue calls for charity and kindness, and whistle past the Nazarene's call to real, risky love of people facing unjust, arbitrary death.

Coffee Talk - Challenges of club run races
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
Few days ago we got a plea from the Longmont Criterium asking for volunteers
For each marshal shift of approximately 3 hours completed by a volunteer, a free registration is provided to enter one of the race events at the Longmont Criterium.
This is a fun opportunity to see exciting racing action, help out the local racing community, and get a free race entry! Lunch and refreshments are provided to each volunteer.
Please contact Annie at email@example.com for more details.
Then not so long ago the word got out that the Haystack TTT/TT got canceled, assumed to have been due to lack of volunteers. On that same page there was a lot of discussion about why such a large event as the Haystack TTT/TT could fall into cancellation. Some claimed that a simple call for volunteers could have saved it. The Longmont Criterium needs your help, will we save it?
Promoting a race is hard work/business
It's not getting easier to put on a race these days, all costs are going up, logistics can be a nightmare for a larger event and getting the help seems to be the scare resource many are looking for. Is the role of race promotion best fit with the mission of cycling clubs/teams?. Some clubs who do still run large events, have a paid staff to manage the successful execution of the event or "that 1 person" who's done it so long they hold all of the knowledge. Is that "the way of the future" for anything beyond an office park crit? But even a skilled or paid staff will not fill the void of volunteers needed for race day, does that mean increase of entry fees and less dependance on free help?

One or the other
Submitted by Not a Primal Person (not verified) on
Not saying a team can't make money on a race, some choose to take that route, other don't. But from your comments, it sounds like you want all teams to put on at least a race. Does it have to be 1 cx race and 1 road race? Or one or the other? Judging by the number of teams there, if each team had to do 1 of each race type, we'd have about 2 weeks off from racing a year. Have the races mid week? You commented a second ago about how we have too many of those. So the teams only have to put on one race. What happens if they all want to do a cx race? Then we have zero road races all year and 50 cx races.
Dont get me wrong, I think it's a good idea to have teams put on races, but the logistics of it seems to be a nightmare

Higher Flaggers, Help with Road events to get Road Cup Points...
Submitted by Stephen (not verified) on
For Deer Trail and Weld County road races, we have hired Flaggers from a Temp company to fill the void left by Colorado going back to USAC. We used to get 2 to 4 clubs helping with road races when ACA ran things. Now with USAC and the BRAC LA, clubs don't step up to help at races. This adds cost to races and leads to less prize money and higher entry fees. Until we go away from USAC and back to a local organization like ACA was, more races will need to hire staff as less people volunteer for USAC races.
One change BRAC could make to Cup policy...
If a club wants to be eligible for Road Cup Points, then they should promote or help volunteer at a road cup event, TT, HC, RR, Crit. If they want Cross Cup Points, then they should promote or help volunteer at a Cross race.
They don't have a to lead the promotion, just have all members volunteer all day at a race. Can help with a club promoted event or a "professional" promoted event. All events, regardless of who promotes it, need volunteers to make the races happen.

But, Andy, imagine if you
Submitted by Fred (not verified) on
But, Andy, imagine if you were a club with lots of members, not just a guy hosting races. The club could decide whether it wanted to promote a small race, a big race, just one race, lots of races, etc... Then, when it was time to put on the event, each club member would work the race and the club members would reap whatever benefits may come from the event. Small clubs would have to pair up with other small clubs, or perhaps only promote one small event. Bigger clubs could do more races, or bigger races, but they shouldn't be reduced to begging for volunteers from outside the club.
Dropping the club requirement to promote races was a bad idea.

"Dont get me wrong, I think it's a good idea to have teams put on races, but the logistics of it seems to be a nightmare"
you know, that's how it used to be done up until just a few years ago.
The logistics of it (the coordination of the calendar, I'm assuming you're referring to) is one of the key roles of the local association. In the old days, the district rep was responsible for the calendar. For those states that had a local association, they'd fill that role. Now that all states have a local association, that's how their calendars are coordinated. It's how we do it here, btw. They have separate road and cross promoter meetings to coordinate the racing schedules. No more difficult to coordinate races run by clubs than it is to coordinate races run by promoters, or a combination of clubs/promoters as we have now..
Points: 33
Potential Solution
Submitted by Not a Primal Person (not verified) on
Working off what JayZ said, maybe it's us racers who don't do enough. I always look at the emails for volunteers and disregard them. Maybe teams need to start requiring that each year, each team member needs to put in X amount of hours per year volunteering at races to stay on the team. That'd probably get some numbers to help out at the races.

List of the Lame: FCCT & COTN reply
Submitted by JayZ (not verified) on
While I agree with your posting this list to 'shame' the guilty....for the record please do not include the Fort Collins Cycling Team (the BRAC club) aka '1st City Cycling Team p/b Noosa Yoghurt' as we have hosted and produced the 'Cross of the North' cyclocross race (www.crossofthenorth.com) since 2011 and will again in 2014 as a 3-day event.
We struggle each year with finding people to volunteer to cover the various duties required to make even the smallest event happen (FCCT also hosts and produces the Tuesday night 'City Street Crits' each week in July). IMHO bike racers in general have become an entitled complaining lot who do very little to contribute to the long term success of our sport.
Additionally club produced events are at a breaking point with the process of dealing with USAC related fees, charges, hoops, and general irritations.
Personally I spend HUNDREDS of volunteer hours each year planning and executing on the Cross of the North event....why? Because I love the sport and want to see it grow and lead by example rather than waiting for someone to do it. I had mentors from the generation before mine that 'encouraged' volunteering by rewarding those who did and the 'vampires' (aka racers that only race) eventually left the sport as they were cast out of the culture.
FCCT and COTN are fortunate to have strong ties into the city, county, and cycling culture 'up here' and that goes a long way when it comes time to ask for people to sacrifice their time for a silly bike race. Events wither away if the local culture does not sustain the passion for it....add into the equation the amount of support an event gets from the National (USAC) and local (BRAC) governance and it will succeed or fail.

CLEVELAND — The Indians had their rally caps on again Tuesday night at Progressive Field, only this time the Angels turned them back around.
For the second straight night Cleveland produced a ninth-inning uprising against its American League rival, but there was no winning hit and no victory celebration at the end of a 2-1 loss to Los Angeles.
The elements were present for another fantastic finish, with the Indians loading the bases with no outs against Angels closer Jordan Walden.
But they failed to score — Monday night's hero Jason Kipnis striking out to end the game after Matt LaPorta bounced into a disastrous double play.
Kipnis' first career hit, an RBI single Monday, lifted the Indians to their 11th win in their last
at-bat at home and their 23rd come-from-behind victory.
"They stopped the magic," Indians manager Manny Acta said of the Angels, who handed his team its fifth loss in six games, with Cleveland falling two games behind the first-place Tigers in the Central Division standings. "We played good baseball. The only thing we couldn't get was a key hit."
That was the case for much of the night, which morphed into a pitching duel between Indians starter Josh Tomlin and Los Angeles' Jered Weaver, the AL's starter in the All-Star Game.
Tomlin (11-5, 4.01 ERA) stayed with Weaver (14-4, 1.79) for the majority of the game, which was scoreless through six innings, as neither club was able to break through until the seventh.
That's when Tomlin finally cracked, allowing a two-run double to Mark Trumbo that proved to be the game-winning hit. With a runner on, the Indians elected to walk Howie Kendrick to get to Trumbo, who made them pay, driving a ball into the gap in right-center.
The Indians also scored in the seventh on LaPorta's solo home run, but it wasn't enough to reward Tomlin for another quality effort.
"It's definitely tough to lose one like that," Tomlin said. "But I made more mistakes than (Weaver) did, and that's why we lost the game."
Tomlin allowed the two runs on just four hits, striking out three over eight innings. He has pitched at least five innings in each of his first 33 career starts, the only pitcher in baseball to accomplish as much since 1919.
"He was in complete command the whole night," Acta said. "He made one mistake. It's a shame that Tomlin had to lose it."
The Indians had a handful of opportunities to get to Weaver before the ninth-inning rally.
Kipnis started the third with a leadoff double — the first hit off Weaver — and put another aboard on a one-out walk to Ezequiel Carrera, but Michael Brantley popped out and Asdrubal Cabrera grounded to second. Brantley also hit into a pair of double plays in the fifth and eighth innings.
Cleveland had runners on first and second with one out in the fourth before LaPorta flew out and Kipnis struck out.
But the most frustrating of failures arrived during the Indians' last chance for a win.
Consecutive singles from Travis Hafner and Carlos Santana preceded a sacrifice bunt from Lonnie Chisenhall, who reached when the Angels tried unsuccessfully to cut down the lead runner at third.
That brought LaPorta to the plate with a chance to tie the game with a fly ball or win it with a hit. He did neither, bouncing a ground ball to second that was fielded by Kendrick, who threw home for the first out, with the relay beating LaPorta to first.
"He battled and got the count to 3-2," Acta said of LaPorta. "But the bottom line is, 'You get your pitches, you've got to hit them.' "

There are a number of good reasons to choose a 10-gallon tank for your hamster. However, there are also advantages to using a cage. If only the two could be combined...Oh, wait! They can be. The Super Pet My First Home Tank Topper allows you to transform your hamster's 10-gallon tank into a spacious, ventilated living space. However, this habitat addition is a great investment for a number of reasons.
Additional space
The most obvious reason to add the topper is that it instantly increases the amount of space in your hamster's habitat. The topper snaps on top of the tank and doubles the square footage of your pet's pad. Now your hamster has tons of space, but you're not losing important space in your home. Because the topper attaches to the top of the tank, chances are you're not losing any valuable space at all.
The Super Pet My First Home Tank Topper is fun for both pet owners and the pet. Not only are you adding multi-level fun to your hamster's home, but you'll get to see your pet more often as they climb up and down the ramps. There's even a food bowl at the top to make feeding your pet easier and to allow you to see your little guy chow down.
Climate control
The big debate over whether or not to choose a tank for your hamster usually involves the climate of your pet's habitat. Tanks are said to be too stuffy and can cause illness, while cages are said to be too ventilated and can let cold drafts into your pet's home (also leading to illness). That's why this habitat addition makes so much sense. The ability to let your pet decide what they need is invaluable. When she gets cold, she can go downstairs into the included house and burrow. If she gets too warm, she can go upstairs and enjoy the cooler air while having a snack.
Last, but not least, the Super Pet My First Home Tank Topper costs less than thirty dollars. With chew and stain-resistant wires, an opening that latches securely, and the ability to easily expand your hamster's living space, that price is a steal.
There you have it. I'm sure you can see the advantages of buying this habitat addition for your hamster. Whether you have a new hamster or and old friend, this will be a welcome addition to their living space. Best of all, the Super Pet My First Home Tank Topper can be purchased in most pet stores that carry small pet supplies.

College Hockey:Bemidji State opens CHA play with 9-4 win over Findlay
FINDLAY, Ohio — Bemidji State posted its highest-scoring effort in the brief history of the CHA, using a four-goal first period to jump-start a 9-4 win over the Findlay Oilers on Friday at the Clauss Ice Arena.
Marty Goulet, Riley Riddell and Todd Knott had two goals apiece for the Beavers, who jumped out to a 4-1 lead after the first period, and a 6-2 lead after the second. It was Bill Methven, however, who got the scoring under way, at the 8:20 mark of the opening period. Goulet would score his first of two on the night three minutes later, as the Beavers took an early 2-0 lead.
Lance Holmes got the Oilers on the board at 13:40 with his first goal of the season. But the Beavers scored 24 seconds later, off the stick of Anders Olsson, to reclaim their two-goal advantage. It stretched to three goals before the period ended, as Riddell scored with 54 seconds left to give the Beavers a 4-1 cushion after 20 minutes.
Russ Kelley cut the lead in half for the Oilers at the 2:09 mark of the second period.
The Beavers (4-4-1, 1-0-0 CHA), however, scored two unanswered goals to round out the second period and give Bemidji State a comfortable four-goal lead heading to the third.
Goulet's power-play goal at 11:06 proved to be the game winner. Two minutes later, Andrew Murray gave the Beavers the 6-2 lead.
Findlay (2-5-0, 0-3-0) would try to make things interesting in the third period. Jeff Seeds scored on the power play at 6:36 to again cut the Bemidji lead in half. The Oilers then cut the lead to two goals at 12:03 when Nate Markus scored his first goal of the year. After a Bemidji State timeout, the Beavers took over, scoring three unanswered goals to round out the scoring.
Jamie VandeSpyker started in goal for Findlay and was pulled at the 13:53 mark of the second period after giving up six goals in 20 shots.

|Idaho becomes home to Taleni
By Samantha Cyphers, Vandal Athletic Media Relations
Transfer student-athletes tend to have their work cut out for them when entering a new team. Breaking into a new environment with high expectations behind you can be a daunting task, but for Derisa Taleni, meeting high expectations would be an understatement.
As a transfer to the University of Idaho women's basketball Team in the 2008-2009 season, Taleni erupted into the Western Athletic Conference with her athleticism and talent. In her first season with the Vandals she took the WAC Newcomer of the Year award with her 14.5 point scoring average. But her streak didn't end there. On January 5, of 2009 Taleni wowed the crown with an explosion of long range shots giving her game total a remarkable 31 points. That performance was also the ninth 30-point game in Cowan Spectrum history and fourth-best overall, while her five 3-pointers made are tied for second in Spectrum history.
The transition process was an easy process for Taleni, not only with her skills but with her team and coaches as well.
"It was pretty easy just because the coaches were all new. We were all new with each other and we were getting to know each other," Taleni said. "I think that in itself probably brought us closer together. We were learning how they were as coaches, and how they want their program run, so we were all learning together."
As a new player to the Idaho Vandals, Taleni was taken aback by the seriousness of the rivalry between Boise State and the University of Idaho. But the experience and meaning of the game became one of Taleni's favorite experiences as a player at Idaho.
"My junior year when we first played Boise we didn't do too well. Coming in I had never known about the rivalry. It was just another game," Taleni said. Then I saw how much it meant to the university of course, and our girls. So beating them at their place on senior day was great."
With the outstanding first year with the Vandals, Taleni looked forward to what was ahead of her for the next season. Unfortunately, Taleni suffered a season-ending knee injury during preseason practice and took a medical redshirt for the season. Taleni's senior year has been a reflection of how great of a player she is. Being one of the two Vandals that has started all 21 games of the season she has resumed her position as an influential player for the women's team. Senior year means a lot of things for Taleni, she has learned a lot about herself and what she plans for her future.
"I've grown a lot," Taleni said. "Becoming a better leader. Listening better. No matter what the standings are, what our record is, if we're the smallest team playing the biggest team, our hard work will out-do anything thrown at us. I've learned to grow up a bit, and have fun while I'm still young."
After graduation Taleni hopes to further her basketball career overseas and continue the journey she is on as well as taking care of her number one fan, her son.
"I'm hoping to play overseas, that's something that I'm really interested in, Taleni said. "And something to fall back on, helping inner city kids. Kids who are not as privileged. Kind of coming back to kids I've grown up with back home, and letting them know that whatever talent they have, they can use it and go far. They don't have to fall into the norm of just being on the streets, or not in school."
As the Idaho women's basketball team prepare themselves for the WAC tournament, Taleni parts with words of wisdom for upcoming athletes for the University of Idaho.
"Take advantage of what you get. I know a lot of people come in and mess around, and don't really take anything seriously," Taleni said. "At the end of the day, something good can happen. Just learn from people. Coaches, players, people around you, athletic trainers. And just be respectful."

Tulane volleyball head coach Sinisa Momic is pleased with the class the volleyball program will bring in for 2013.
April 24, 2013
NEW ORLEANS - Tulane's volleyball program rounded out its roster for the 2013 season by signing Miah Diirell (Everett, Wash.) and Annie Shurtz (Moraga, Calif.) to letters of intent, while adding Lauren Etta (Cold Spring, N.Y.) and Makenzie Frieden (Friendswood, Texas) as walk-ons and Amy Lanski (DePaul) as a transfer for the 2013 indoor season.
The five join Ally Frank (Saskatoon, Canada), Tea Juric (Republic of Croatia) and Sarah Strasner (Houston) who signed with Tulane in late November.
"We are very pleased with the way this class turned out," said Tulane volleyball head coach Sinisa Momic. "We will be looking for big things from this group in the fall. This class is going to give us more depth by giving us more competition at every position. We won't have to shuffle people around to play positions that they aren't comfortable in playing. With different players, you are adding different characteristics to the team, and I think that this class will mesh well with the players that we have.
Diirell is a 5'9" outside hitter who can also play libero. She prepped at Jackson High School in Everett, Wash., and she competed at the USA Volleyball Junior Olympics in 2007, 2008 and 2010. In 74 sets during her season season at Jackson, Diirell notched 248 kills, 158 digs and 17 blocks while compiling a hitting percentage of .325.
"Miah is a dynamic player," said Momic. "She is an explosive jumper and a good hitter, so we are looking at her to compete at both outside hitter and libero. With solid work, we can utilize her on the back row."
Shurtz hails from one of the top volleyball powerhouses in Northern California: Campolindo High School. The 6'1" outside hitter was named the East Bay Girls Volleyball Player of the Year in helping lead her squad to a 30-5 record. In the North Coast Section Championship match, she notched 22 kills. All in all, Shurtz finished her senior campaign with 500 kills, 54 blocks and 49 aces.
"Annie is a complete athlete, and she can play outside or right side even though she has some experience playing in the middle in the past," stated Momic. "She is playing for one of the top teams in California, and a lot of her teammates will play collegiately. She is a quality player with a high volleyball IQ."
Frieden is a defensive specialist who played for one of the top teams in Texas this past season in Friendswood High School. During the 4A State Championships semifinals game, Frieden came up with 27 digs. During the 42-5 season put together by the Mustangs, Frieden paced the club with 555 digs.
"Makenzie is an all-state player from Texas who is quick and dynamic on the back row," said Momic. "We kind of came into contact with Makenzie when we were recruiting Sarah Strasner. The two of them played on the same club team."
Etta led Haldane High School to the 2012 New York state championship and earned all-state recognition. She was named the MVP of the New York State Class D tournament in 2011 while leading her squad to their first state championship since 2007. She appeared in 60 sets this past fall, compiling 244 assists, 247 kills and 57 digs.
"Lauren is one of the better players in the state of New York," stated Momic. "We think that with time and practice, we can develop her into one of our key setters. She has the desire to work hard, and we believe that she will be a really good player for us."
Lanski, originally from Ventura High School in Ventura, Calif., played her freshman year at DePaul University as an outside hitter. She led the Blue Demons in kills with 271. She competed in 98 sets - third-most on the team - and finished with 28 total blocks. As a senior in high school, she recorded 319 kills, 236 digs and 41 service aces. She redshirted last season due to a shoulder injury.
"Amy had a really good freshman year at DePaul, so we know that she can contribute right away offensively," said Momic. "Looking at her potential development, she can be a major contributor from the start for us."
