Heat is up, Cavs are down

By Eitan Mendelson · Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2011

Rodgers has stellar Super Bowl

By Nick Shlain · Wednesday, Feb. 9, 2011

Super Bowl XLV was as eventful as any other Super Bowl, and at the same time just as forgettable.

Thomas' efforts 'invaluable' for women's basketball defense

By Theodora Robinson-Jones · Wednesday, Feb. 2, 2011

A tough warrior, someone who isn’t afraid to sacrifice her body for the sport, a person that’s been described by coach AnnMarie Gilbert as a “blue-collar baller.” If this is what you’re looking for, let me suggest two-year member of the Eastern Michigan University women’s basketball team Kristin Thomas.

Student athletes compensated, not paid to play

By Jerime Crane · Wednesday, Feb. 2, 2011

Life for a college student-athlete can be a hectic. Early wake-up times, practices, team meetings and traveling out-of-state for competitions are just a few things the average student-athlete at any division-one school has to juggle. And don’t forget, they must stay on top of their grades, too.
