Cedarville Yellow Jackets weather the Lake Erie Storm in G-MAC showdown
By: Maggie Fipps
The Cedarville Yellow Jackets defeated the Lake Erie Storm 92-86 on Saturday night. No, not the winter storm that raged outside, the storm brewing between these two G-MAC rivals.
Off the first tip, forward Jacob Drees scored, settling himself in as the offensive touchpoint of the game. He finished one assist shy of a triple double.

I could regurgitate facts about the year-over-year growth of the sport, or the thousands of courts installed across the country, including at Cedarville. But all you need to know is Tom Brady, Selena Gomez and even the Golden Bachelor himself, Gerry Turner, all play the game.

By Julia Swain
Before Addy Miller was an assistant coach for one of the top Division II teams in the country, before she went 90-30 in four seasons on the coaching staff at Pittsburg State, before she was named the Missouri Class Two player of the year, and before she was the state’s all-time leader in three pointers made (319), Miller was just a girl who loved basketball.

Army-Navy football game highlights a hundred year long tradition
By Janie Walenda
It’s hard to not be a football fan in a football family. Every fall my home is filled with the sounds of college football on television. I don’t mind sitting in the living room while a game is on, and I love hearing my mom or my grandma reacting to the games, but there’s only one game I ever pay attention to.
Every year in early December, the football teams of the United States Military Academy and the United States Naval Academy face off in the ...

First annual Christmas basketball tournament: The battle for donut domination
By Maggie Fipps
The Christmas Threes vs. the Jingle Buckets. No, this is not the title of a bad Hallmark Christmas movie where the single basketball coach meets the Christmas-loving baker. This is the first-ever Cedarville Christmas Basketball Tournament. Five teams faced off to win the coveted prize of free Bills Donuts.
Mason Buch, a Sports Management major, started putting on tournaments last semester because of the large basketball community at Cedarville.
