Sidelines

For the second season in a row, sophomore center Heather Turner of the women's basketball team was named to a Mid-American Conference postseason team. Turner was joined by freshman Jamie Schiebner a postseason honoree.

Turner, the 2004-05 MAC Freshman of the Year, was named to the Third Team All-MAC squad as she led the Bulls in both scoring and rebounding this season with 14.3 points per game and 8.1 rebounds.

Turner finished first in the conference in field goal percentage and was second in rebounding, as well as first in offensive rebounds. Turner scored over 20 points seven times, and was second in the MAC with nine double-doubles.

Schiebner's season ended prematurely due to a head injury, which affected her for much of the last month of the season. Despite this fact, Schiebner was named to the All-MAC Freshman team as she averaged 7.8 points and 7.2 rebounds in 22 games.

Putting the student in student-athlete

The men's and women's track and field teams received good news as seniors Jen Jezorski, Kate Kohut, Bryan Weinstein, and sophomore Babaseyi Olaleye, were named to the Academic All-MAC men's and women's teams.

Kohut, a classics major with a 3.6 GPA, was also a member of the MAC champion and record-setting distance medley relay team. Kohut, who was also on the Academic All-MAC team in 2005, finished fourth in the 800 meters at the MAC Championships.

Weinstein, who has a 3.8 GPA as a business major, was also named to the All-MAC second team as he led the 4x400-meter relay squad to a second-place finish at the MAC Championships.

Olaleye has a 3.5 GPA as a mechanical engineering major and set season-best marks in both the 200- and 400-meter races with times of 24.08 and 51.81, respectively. Olaleye also finished 17th in the 400 meter at the MAC Championships.
