Cedarville Women’s Soccer Loses G-MAC Championship Rematch vs. Ashland
By: Maggie Fipps
2-1
Just two numbers.
November 13, 2022.
Just one date.
These simple numbers have been bulletin board material for the Cedarville women’s soccer team since the last GMAC Championship. In this rematch, they repeated their failures, losing to Ashland University 1-0.
Teams have hopes and expectations, and of course, every coach would give you the cliché answer: “We only play to win.”
But this team has played to its full potential, not losing a game ...

By: Julia Swain

‘Till’ tells the gut-wrenching story of Emmett Till and his courageous mother
By Anna Harman
This story was extremely difficult to translate to the big screen. Director and co-writer Chinonye Chukwu was very careful in telling the horrific, indubitable truth of the crimes committed against Emmett Till. “Till” portrayed the true story of 14-year-old Emmett Till (Jalyn Hall) who was brutally murdered by white supremacists in Mississippi. The director didn’t stop at telling Emmett’s story, he also told the story of Mamie Till (Danielle Deadwyler), who became an ...
Women’s Soccer Team’s Offensive Onslaught Sends Yellow Jackets to Conference Final
They say defense wins championships, but an explosive offense worked just fine for Cedarville.
The Lady Jackets’ defense has played historically well this year, and the conference semi-final was no exception. But the real action took place at the other end of the field. The Yellow Jacket attack scored six goals against the Findlay defense.
Six different Cedarville players combined to produce the avalanche of goals: Megan McClish, Aleah Martone, Audrey Nelson, Payton Fraley, Taylor ...
‘Black Adam’ puts the power back into the DCEU
By Ben Konuch
"You like to split the world into just good and evil, but it's easy for you when you're the one drawing the line."
My relationship with the DCEU has been shaky, to say the least. I’m a huge fan of DC’s characters, with Batman and his extended lore of sidekicks and villains being a big percentage of my favorite comic book characters. When it comes to DC’s modern film adaptations of these characters, though, the first few years of the DC Extended Universe have been ...
‘The Premonition at Wither Farm’ is a chilling fall read
By Ella Smith
As the season of pumpkin spice lattes, flannel and leaves arrived, so did the season of chilling reads. Jaime Jo Wright has been one of my favorite authors for a while now, partially due to her ability to write chilling scenes that remain in your memory long after the last chapter.
Her latest book “The Premonition as Withers Farm” does not disappoint with a plethora of haunting descriptions. The book has dueling timelines - one in the early nineteen hundreds and ...
‘Ticket To Paradise’ is a blissful getaway
By Samuel M Acosta
When I originally saw the trailer for “Ticket to Paradise”, it just seemed to be like every other low-quality rom-com that has come out in recent years. I went into the theater with few expectations, really only seeing it because I was going with friends. Over the next couple of hours, however, I ended up having so much fun that I couldn’t wipe the smile off my face. This movie does not beat the audience over the head with overused tropes, but rather brings a fresh ...
Is ‘Wendell and Wild’ a spooky Halloween treat or a messy trick?
By Janie Walenda
In many ways, “Wendell and Wild” is my ideal movie. That’s what I thought when I first watched the trailer. Stop-motion animation, strong visual flair and Key and Peele are about everything I could ask for. The one aspect that made me hesitate about the film was its iffy mythology. Having now seen the film, all my original reactions were correct.
It’s plain to see how much stop-motion animation has evolved since director and writer Henry Selick’s other ...

On Wednesday, October 26th, in the BTS building, students gathered to hear a panel discussion on the recent court ruling regarding Roe v. Wade. Students filled the chairs, lined the walls, crowded the entryways and sat on the floor to hear what a panel of speakers had to say. The discussion was hosted by the Student Legal Society and had three panel speakers who expounded on how Christians should view the court ruling and what is next in the fight ...
Movie review: ‘Paul’s Promise’
Faith-based film to be shown on Cedarville campus
By Paul Miller with Prof. Sean O’Connor
Over the past few years, movies that examine social justice issues are on the rise. Most are centered around race.
In 2022, notable releases included “Nope,” “The Woman King, and “Till.” Less often, however, do these films tackle these issues with a Christian worldview, unfortunately. But, on October 21, a lesser-known faith-based film was released in theaters nationwide with the ...
