COMMENTS:

OVERALL, THIS PRODUCT LACKS VS. OTHERS NOMINATED. DESIGN AND LAYOUT
ARE POOR, COMMPOUNDED BYT LARGE, SPACED OUT TYPEFACE USED IN TEXT.
TOO MANY HEADLINES ARE INCOMPLETE OR “LABELS.”

STAFF PAGES COULD HAVE BEEN A SINGLE STGORY AND HEADHOSTS IN A
QUARTER OF THE SPACE ULTIMATELY USED. MLK TRIBUTE HAD POTENTIAL, BUT
ALL THE ART ENDED UP UNDER THE FOLD. “CRAYOLA MASTERPIECE” HAD
POTENTIAL, TOO, BUT COULD HAVE USED BETTER HEADLINE WRITING AND
DEFINITELY MORE ARTWORK.

EXAMINE OTHER NOMINEES FOR BETTER PACKAGING TECHNIQUES – YOU ONLY
HAVE EIGHT PAGES AND YOU’RE FILLING THEM WITH TOO MANY LARGE
HEADSHOTS AND NOT ENOUGH INFORMATION TO GRAB AND ENGAGE THE
READER.

REEVALUATE TYPE SIZE, SECTIONING OF PRODUCT, USE OF ARTWORK AND
DEDICATION OF SPACE AND CONTENT FOR KEY STORIES.

Please write comments below; they will be used in the awards presentation. Please be as
specific as possible. Consider the strengths of the newspaper, its weaknesses and include any
suggestions for improvement.
1. You make a valiant attempt to cover news related to your college, but it’s often “press
release” oriented. The paper reads like a publication directly from the college’s public
relations office. Your staff needs to remember that it is producing a newspaper for the
campus and the students. Tell your readers what’s going on.
2. I suggest that you hold regular story development meetings to review the news on
campus. Set stories and assign art. Determine what the biggest stories, trends, etc. are
and go after them.
3. Develop a focused editorial/commentary page with a clear editorial. The paper needs a
voice.
4. Your single biggest need is a total redesign. Your headline and body types are weak;
your column width and type size are weak; your picture usage is muddled. Simply. It’s a
chore to read your paper. Inconsistent design also makes it more difficult to produce the
newspaper because there’s no focus, which causes you to literally reinvent the wheel
every time you publish.

“The Super Bowl.
The most epic day in
America,” Morgan
Freeman says on his
Visa commercial.
This year, the Super
Bowl will be a hard
hitting battle on the
gridiron between the
New England Patriots
and the New York
Giants.
But people will be
watching more than

After a few weeks
of getting L’s, the
Skippers fnally come
up with a way to get
the W.
On Saturday, Feb.
4, the St.Clair County
Community College
men’s basketball came
up with the win over
Kirtland Community
College 70 - 56.
Breaking the Skippers
losing streak of six
games in row.
Throughout the
whole game, the
Skippers seemed to
be determined on
just the plays on the
feld. Commercials
will be on everybody’s
mind during the breaks
in action.
Companies thrive
for the chance to have
their ads on the biggest
game of the year. But
is it worth it?
The cost for a Super
Ad, according to
CNNMoney, is three
million dollars for a
thirty second ad. When
you break it down,
that’s one hundred
thousand dollars per
second.
Last year, Chrysler
put out their new
commercial for
Chrysler 200 car with
Eminem and was the
longest commercial in
Super Bowl history.
Costing Chrysler
twelve million dollars.
That’s a lot of money
for one commercial.
Many companies
take the chance on the
big stage. Companies
such as Skechers,
Doritos, Anheuser-
Busch, ETrade,
GoDaddy and Coca-
Cola. But companies
have to realize the
cost.
According to
CNNMoney, if
Snickers invested
in a thirty second
commercial, they
would have to sell
6,329,406 bars to pay
for their investment.
Bridgestone tires
would have to sell
298,656 tires and
Skechers would have
to sell 205,339 pairs of
shoes.
But if you wanted to
get your product out
there to the viewers,
this is the time to do it.
According to Time
NewsFeed, last year’s
Super Bowl set a TV
record for 111 million
viewers. In companies’
eyes, those are
potential customers.
So, with all the facts
and ducks in a row, I
believe that investing
three million dollars
for a Super Bowl is
a wise investment. It
gives companies the
best chance for the
common everyday
customer/viewer to see
and hear about your
product.
So, Morgan
Freeman’s most epic
day in America can be
the big score for the
advertising companies.
Super Bowl worth super money?
breaking their losing
woes.
SC4’s men’s
basketball team had
a comfortable lead at
halftime with a score
of 36 - 27 and kept
their composure to
pick up the win and
never lose the lead.
Johnnie Mills had
himself a ball game by
leading in scoring with
24 points.
Others on the
Skippers that scored
were: Josh Craig with
10 points. Melvin
Green III and Dennis
Hogan contributed 8
points apiece. Also
scoring was: Latwann
Wesley, Deion Stegall,
Jesse Schienke,
Brendalle Smith and
Lionel Hicks. Showing
that the Skippers
were moving the ball
around really well.
The Skippers also
did a good job on the
boards as well.
Dennis Hogan lead
the team in rebounds
with eight of his own.
Also, Jesse Schienke
produced six rebounds
and Brendalle Smith
had fve rebounds as
well.
With seven games
left to go in the regular
season, the Skippers
are 11- 12 and 3 - 7 in
the last 10 games.
Scoring leader up to
this point for SC4‘s
men’s basketball is
Johnnie Mills with
274 points and 13.7
per game. Also scoring
big for the Skippers
this year are Jesse
Schienke with 192
points and Latwann
Wesley with 185
points.
Hopefully with a
win on a hot winter
afternoon, the
Skippers will get into
the winning groove
and out of the loss
column.
Next home games
will be on Feb.
8, against Alpena
Community College
and Feb.18, against
Mott Community
College.
V for victory

Whether it pertains
to something within
the game, something
within a team or
something within a
program, adversity
and sports go hand-in-
hand.
SC4’s basketball
program is dealing
with that adversity at
a crucial time of their
season.
SC4 men’s
basketball assistant
coach Mike Groulx
has been named
interim head coach
of the women’s
basketball team
following the
resignation oI frst-
year head coach,
Lakita Gantz, on
Wednesday, Jan.25.
Gantz did not
provide a direct reason
for her resignation.
Replacing a coach
mid-season is no small
task, and it put SC4
athletic director and
men’s head basketball
coach Dale Vos in a
tough spot.
'My frst thought
was to just promote
Lucretia Bowerman,
coach Gantz’s
assistant, to fnish the
year. She told would
be willing to fnish out
the year as head coach
if she had to, but had
no interest in keeping
the job going forward
into next year,” said
Vos.
The solution seemed
to be a sensible one,
but Vos didn’t want
to leave Bowerman to
run the team alone.
“Initially, I turned
to Mike just to see if
he’d be willing to help
out,” Vos said. “After
talking about it for
quite some time, he
expressed an interest
in taking over as head
coach.”
Groulx, a former
player at SC4, has
been learning as an
assistant under Coach
Vos for the last six
years, and has always
aspired to someday be
a head coach.
“I was a little
Stepping in and stepping up
hesitant at frst,¨ said
Groulx. “I had never
really envisioned
myself coaching
women. But the more
I thought about it and
the more Coach Vos
and I discussed it, I
began to see it as a
great opportunity to
gain experience as
well as helping to
move the program in
the right direction.”
In addition to the
fact that he is picking
up in the middle of
the year, there are
also many differences
between the men and
women’s games that
Groulx will be forced
to adapt to, and he’ll
have to do so rather
quickly.
“I’m beginning to
realize how much I’ve
learned from Coach
Vos,” Groulx said.
“He’s really prepared
me and I feel ready
to take on this new
challenge.”
Vos has every
confdence in his
proverbial understudy.
“I have no doubt that
Mike will do a terrifc
job,” said Vos. “He’s
a great student of the
game and I know he’s
very passionate about
it. He really wants to
be a head coach.”
As far as the future
of the position
is concerned, no
decisions have been
made just yet.

Glitz and glamour
descended on Port
Huron as the third
annual Blue Water
Film Festival gave the
city its own taste of
Hollywood.
The festival began
with a night of stand
up hilarity from
Michigan native and
“Full House” star,
Dave Coulier, on
Thursday, Oct. 6, and
the red carpet premier
of “Mimesis,” starring
horror movie master
Sid Haig on Friday.
Saturday saw a
showcase of stellar
cinema from Michigan
flmmakers. The flm
fickered Irom 10
a.m.-9 p.m., showing
something for
everybody.
“Regional Roots”
is a short subject
documentary from
Detroit area director,
Carrie LeZotte,
that examines the
economic history and
ethnic diversity of
Detroit. I appreciated
the way that it took
time to show the
different cultures and
different layers of the
city in an effort to
show that Detroit isn’t
as terrible as people
make it out to be.
As with any short
subject of this nature
I personally felt that it
short changed itself by
being so short and not
going in depth in other
areas that it should
have, such as showing
the subtle ways that
the cultures come
together.

Ya know, coming
home at 1 a.m.
covered in latex is a
lot less sexy than it
sounds.
Let’s give that last
sentence some context
shall we. Myself,
along with the rest of
SC4’s own Zombie
Defense Council,
were invited to make
pretend to be zombies
for the premier of
“Mimesis” at the Blue
Water Film Festival.
The night started off
at 5:30, when I was
lead back, and then
under, stage of the
McMorran theater for
blood and makeup.
The basement/
“Strong from
Detroit,” another short
subject documentary
from director Jeremy
Olystyn of Berkley.
This flm shows how
after suburban area
senior Marcellous
Strong’s father loses
his job that he must go
outside of the Detroit
city limits to continue
his education.
This movie also
makes it hard to
convey its point
because as with
“Regional Roots,” it’s
another one where
they could expand
on how Marcellous
intends to plan his
future in a city that
builds prisons based
on a third grade level.
“Being from Another
Planet” is a feature
length comedy/drama
from director Joseph
Parcell, of Okemos,
that explores the
possibility of two
astronauts having
the major frst oI a
successful pregnancy
in outer space on
the frst manned
mission to Mars.
The pregnancy is
successful, but it turns
out to be a media
circus and the baby
ends up being as big
of a deal as Michael
Jackson’s son Blanket.
As with everything
however, the media
hype does die down
and the child ends up
falling into obscurity.
The 2011 Blue Water
Film festival was a
rousing success. I hope
that if this year is any
indication of next year,
future years to come, it
will keep getting better
and better. Roll em!
Blue water Hollywood
makeup room was
flled with ZDC Iaces
old and new. Even
Cody Kimball, former
webmaster of the
Erie Square Gazette
and founder of the
ZDC, came up from
Kalamazoo to sing
show tune and become
zombiefed Ior the
evening.
After getting our
faces on, we headed
north, as in upstairs,
to the lobby, where
the group was split
to inside and outside.
Inside zombies
were ushers, outside
zombies mingled with
the crowd.
We stumbled and
shambled around
outside entertaining
and, in a few
instances, scaring the
crowd, some of which
had been there all day.
Advisor to the ZDC,
Bob Kroll, was over
taken by the hoard on
a few occasions. The
hour and a half we
shambled around the
lobby and line was a
furry oI photos until
people started to move
in to the lobby, for the
stars of “Mimesis” had
began to show up and
the screening begun.
It’s not this articles
place to tell you about
the fick, but I will say
I really liked it. In a
world where zombies
are used and over
used in all formats of
media, this is a fresh
and interesting take
with a cool twist.
Then came the
payoff, as if the
movie wasn’t enough,
the volunteers were
allowed to go through
the autograph line,
which included Sid
Haig! Before the doors
opened!
Haig and the rest
of the cast were just
as cool as the night’s
events. Haig was very
low key and an all
around fantastic dude.
I don’t think I’ve ever
seen so many zombies
with their jaws on
the foor as I had that
night.
We got a group
photo with Haig,
which I’m sure will
go straight to the ZDC
hall of fame.
As I walked back to
my car, I remember
feeling like I had just
walked in the door
back at 5:30, except
I was more excited,
even more than
going to concerts and
midnight screenings.
I think having the
cast and director
in the room as the
flm fickers across
the screen creates a
different atmosphere
in the dark theater.
Showing your
art, even if you are
a thousand percent
confdent with it, is
scarier than anything
you can put on flm.
I hope that the cast
enjoyed sharing what
they had made with us.
I know that theater full
oI horror and flm Ians
enjoyed it.

A public forum by and for students
Students and colleagues mourn loss of beloved instructor
Twana Pinskey
Editor-in-Chief
Students and
colleagues, along with
the cast and crew of
the SC4 production
of “Fool for Love,”
grieve the loss of
Adjunct Theatre
Discipline Instructor,
Lisa Sturtridge.
Sturtridge was doing
what she loved best,
helping her students
perfect the craft of
stage makeup and
preparing for a show
when she died on Oct.
10, 2011.
Sturtridge lived in
Port Huron and was
an adjunct faculty
member of the Visual
and Performing Arts
Department at SC4,
where she taught
Fundamentals of
Stage Makeup and
Fundamentals of
Theatre at SC4.
She had been the
costume designer
working on numerous
Theatre Discipline
productions at SC4
since 2004. She had
worked in professional
and academic theatre
for more than 30
years.
She earned a
bachelor’s degree in
technical theatre with
a costume and lighting
design emphasis
from Michigan State
University, and a
master’s degree in
costume design and
dramatic literature
from Emerson College
in Boston. She also
had designed costumes
for Port Huron Civic
Theatre.
As news of
Sturtridge’s passing
spread, students,
faculty and colleagues
paused to remember
Sturtridge.
Shawn Starkey,
Executive Director of
SC4 Publics Relations,
said grief counselors
were made available
to students, colleagues
and faculty.
“We are in shock,
she was a well
respected and cared
about instructor,” said
Starkey. “Our prayers
and sympathies go out
to her family, friends
and students during
this diIfcult time.¨
Adjunct Instructor
for the Visual and
Performing Arts,
and Drama Club
Adviser, Tom Kephart,
shared an oIfce with
Sturtridge and was
working with her on
the SC4 production of
“Fool for Love” at the
time of her death.
Kephart frst met
Sturtridge when he
did the SC4 show,
“Christmas Belles”
three years ago. He
said they spent a lot
of time together since
they shared an oIfce.
“It’s just really weird
to know she is not
going to walk through
the door anymore,”
said Kephart. “The
thing I admired most
about Lisa is how she
cared, really cared
about the students at
SC4.”
Kephart said former
students have been
calling and stopping in
since her death, asking
what they can do to
help. Kephart felt
this was a testimony
to how students past
and present felt about
Sturtridge.
“Fool for Love” cast
member Christian
Jones, from St. Clair,
SC4 sophomore and
liberal arts major,
shared his fondest
memory of Sturtridge
from the SC4 Drama
Club production of
“Welcome to the
Moon.”
Jones’ character was
a poet.
Sturtridge looked
at him and wondered
what to do for a
costume. As a joke,
Jones asked her for a
Mozart wig and vest
from that time period.
According to Jones,
she said she could do
that and left coming
back with a Mozart
wig and period vest.
“She (Sturtridge)
said I didn’t think
anyone would ever ask
for this in a million
years,” shared Jones
while laughing. “And
of course she had it.”
Sound crew member
from “Fool for Love,”
SC4 student Alyssa
Ferri, a veterinary
major from Cass City,
shared how Sturtridge
loved her job and was
always there for her
students.
“She impacted
everyone she knew,”
said Ferri. “She had
a way of touching
everyone’s heart and
she never forgot about
her students.”
Kephart expressed
similar sentiments. “It
was her (Sturtridge)
only constant, coming
in here and working
with the students
is what made it
worthwhile for her.”
There will be a
memorial service
honoring Lisa Oct.28,
at 3p.m. in the Fine
Arts Auditorium.

“My favorite memory
of Lisa would be
when I frst met her!
I walked into class
with Twana and was
amazed at this woman,
so full of excitement
over painting on
someone face! She
was incredible. This
being the frst time I
met her, I was shocked
at how personal she
was with everyone. I
took her class because
of my wonderful
experience with Twana
that day and I am truly
grateful for knowing
her!”
-Jasmine Hall
“My favorite memory
of Mrs. Sturtridge was
how when we were
in her class and she
would always tell us
one of her childhood
stories. Especially
when she pointed out
that she grew up with
one of my friends,
and classmates, Craig
Desjardin’s family
Your schooling may be over, but remember
that your education still continues.
and growing up on the
street where I now live
and how she told me
all about the people
that used to live
there.”
-Brittany Vermeersch
“My favorite memory
of Lisa was the stories
she told me of my
family. You see, my
dad’s brother and
sisters grew up with
Lisa on the same
block. She would tell
me stories of what my
father used to do and
how they used to play
baseball in this feld
behind there street.
She also told me about
how my grandmother
taught her how to
sew dresses. Her
stories brought back
memories of my
grandmother, and, for
that hour, she felt like
another Aunt, or even
my grandmother, for
she would always call
me Paul, the name of
one of my uncles, just
like my grandmother.”
-Craig DesJardins
“We had been
worrying about a
particular student and
something the student
was struggling with.
And we had this long
conversation about
what kind of options
there were, and what
might happen, and
how to best do what
would be useful for
the student. We had
come up with this
very interesting, sort
of formal ‘this is
what you can do and
what you can’t do
and here’s the plan
and here’s how you
help and these are
the suggestions you
can make.’ About 20
minutes later I walk
out into the hallway
and Lisa has literally
taken the student by
the hand, she’s holding
the student by the
wrist, and she’s saying
‘Yes I know, but
you’re coming with
me, no, you’re coming
with me, you’re
coming with me right
now, right now, and
we’re going over there
and I’m not letting
go until you do.’ And
I looked at her and I
said, ‘Lisa this is the
plan?’ And she said,
‘Well, whatever it
takes, right?’ If she
had a student that was
struggling, she was
just determined that
she was going to do
whatever she had to do
to help.”
-Elaine Schatzline-
Behr
“We were working on
one of those blood and
gore makeup things
for an arts festival in
town. Lisa showed
up and there was a
teenage boy who had
just fnished doing a
big, gooey, wound,
burn thing on his
arm, and she walked
over and she looked
over at it and she said
‘Ohhh...that’s gross!
That’s disgusting! I
love it!’ Really well
done make-up, she
just loved it no matter
how gross it was.”
-Elaine Schatzline-
Behr
“Watching her
interaction with
the students, her
enthusiasm. She had
great recipes; her
recipe for Febreeze is
cheap vodka and water
in a spray bottle.”
-Karen Jezewoski
“My sister, who was in
the band, symphonic
band with Lisa in
high school. And Sue
and Lisa were always
fghting Ior frst chair,
and my sister was a
pretty decent French
horn player…she said
Lisa was the most
beautiful French horn
player.”

Port Huron played
Undead at a red carpet affair
host to the mid-west
premier of “Mimesis.”
SC4 zombies ushered
the event.
The third annual
Blue Water Film
Festival kicked off a
star studded weekend
at the McMorran on
Oct. 6 with Dave
Coulier, one of the
stars of “Full House,”
at the microphone for
a stand-up comedy
routine.
But perhaps the
biggest event of all
took place on the
following evening,
the mid-west premier
of “Mimesis,” which
brought Sid Haig, of
“Kill Bill” and “The
Devil’s Rejects,”
and other stars from
“Mimesis” to Port
Huron.
An event that some
SC4 students got to be
a part of.
Led by their advisor
Bob Kroll, SC4’s
Zombie Defense
Council descended on
the event, talking the
talk and walking the
walk of the undead, all
while entertaining the
crowd and acting as
ushers.
“They’re excellent
zombies. They’re
really good, well
dressed up and a lot
of fun,” said Clarissa
Karling as she
observed the zombies
shambling about by
the curb in front of
the McMorran. “Good
idea to have the
zombies.”
Acacia Sherman, of
Port Huron, was part
of the makeup team
that made the zombie
magic happen.
When asked about
“Mimesis” premiering
in Port Huron,
Sherman had this
to say, “I think it is
absolutely awesome.
It is awesome because
not many people know
of Port Huron and it’s
a way to get the name
out, the city out, and
bring in business.”
SC4 alumni Cody
Kimball traveled
all the way from
Kalamazoo to partake
in the occasion,
lending his “zombie
aIfnity¨ to the movie`s
premier and calling it
“one of the greatest
moments in Port
Huron flm history.¨
When asked about
how he managed to
bring the mid-west
premier to Port Huron,
Jeremy Stemen,
Executive Director for
the Blue Water Film

Port Huron played
Undead at a red carpet affair
host to the mid-west
premier of “Mimesis.”
SC4 zombies ushered
the event.
The third annual
Blue Water Film
Festival kicked off a
star studded weekend
at the McMorran on
Oct. 6 with Dave
Coulier, one of the
stars of “Full House,”
at the microphone for
a stand-up comedy
routine.
But perhaps the
biggest event of all
took place on the
following evening,
the mid-west premier
of “Mimesis,” which
brought Sid Haig, of
“Kill Bill” and “The
Devil’s Rejects,”
and other stars from
“Mimesis” to Port
Huron.
An event that some
SC4 students got to be
a part of.
Led by their advisor
Bob Kroll, SC4’s
Zombie Defense
Council descended on
the event, talking the
talk and walking the
walk of the undead, all
while entertaining the
crowd and acting as
ushers.
“They’re excellent
zombies. They’re
really good, well
dressed up and a lot
of fun,” said Clarissa
Karling as she
observed the zombies
shambling about by
the curb in front of
the McMorran. “Good
idea to have the
zombies.”
Acacia Sherman, of
Port Huron, was part
of the makeup team
that made the zombie
magic happen.
When asked about
“Mimesis” premiering
in Port Huron,
Sherman had this
to say, “I think it is
absolutely awesome.
It is awesome because
not many people know
of Port Huron and it’s
a way to get the name
out, the city out, and
bring in business.”
SC4 alumni Cody
Kimball traveled
all the way from
Kalamazoo to partake
in the occasion,
lending his “zombie
aIfnity¨ to the movie`s
premier and calling it
“one of the greatest
moments in Port
Huron flm history.¨
When asked about
how he managed to
bring the mid-west
premier to Port Huron,
Jeremy Stemen,
Executive Director for
the Blue Water Film
Festival, said that the
director of “Mimesis,”
Douglas Schulze, was
a former Blue Water
Film Festival judge.
Screenings for the
17 flms deemed
“Michigan’s hottest”
by the festival took
place on the following
Oct. 8.
Following the
screening of those 17
flms, Tim Busfeld,

and Chris Gore
was awarded the
Big Thumb Award.

Fighting like lions
and tigers, only this
time for a good cause.
On Thursday, Oct.
13, the Men’s and
Women’s Basketball
teams played against
each other to raise
fund for both teams.
Altogether, $221
were raised and split
between the two teams
to pay for equipment,
uniforms, and travel
funds.
At the end of the
frst halI, the lady
skippers were down
30-16. Even though
they fought hard to
gain a lead, the game
ended with a Men’s
close win at 42-31.
Though some players
were disappointed
by the close ending,
they were reminded
that the game was
for fundraising, not
competition.
Coach LaKita Gantz
commented that even
though not a large
amount of money
was made, she plans
to have the Women’s
Basketball team
participate in more
fundraisers, such as
a fashion show or
assorted parties. She
also hopes that more
people will be aware
of the teams because
of this event and will
come out to more of
the events to help the
teams.
Gantz believes that
the game showed her
what members of the
team played more
competitively, played
harder, and played
better against their
male counterparts,
what she believes to
be a good indication of
how well they’ll play
against other women’s
teams. It showed her
what the team needs to
work on at practice, as
well.
Battle of the sexes
From Player to coach,

During the course of
the year, many sports
fans that watch ESPN
will come to fnd that
the “World Series of
Poker” has become
a main attraction.
And for the students
at St. Clair County
Community College,
Euchre has become the
main event.
Students that come
to the college center
for their lunch break
have found out this
semester that Euchre
is a popular card
game among other
classmates.
According to
thefreedictionary
.com, Euchre is
defned as, 'a card
game played usually
with the highest 32
cards, in which each
player is dealt 5 cards
and the player making
the trump is required
to take at least 3 tricks
to win.”
Confused? You’re
not the only one. I was
too.
But since I’ve gotten
into the phenomenon
of Euchre, I can
come up with a better
explanation for the
people still confused
and scratching their
heads.
Four players are
split in two teams and
play each other in
game to which have
to score ten points
to win. Each player
is dealt fve cards a
piece. The only cards
being dealt are tens’
through aces. Jacks are
considered “bowers”
and are the highest
cards when used in the
right trump. Someone
from the four must call
trump, either spades,
hearts, diamonds or
clubs. Trump becomes
the highest value in the
game and if you have
enough trump during a
hand, you could have
the advantage to win.
Still confused? Well
that’s very common,
but many students
at SC4 have enjoyed
and learned very
quickly by playing this
strategy game of wits
and trump.
Students like
Michael Brough, a
third year student
a St.Clair County
Community College,
says, “I like Euchre,
because it passes time
faster. It also helps
to strategize better
and helps your brain
power.”

Trumping into the Euchre scene

ln many dlñerenL
scenarios throughout
life, boy becomes
man, student becomes
the teacher and at
St. Clair Community
County College the
player became the
coach.
Kyle Brown, a
sophomore at SC4,
became a part of the
coachlng sLañ for
the upcoming men’s
basketball team
season.
Brown, played
high school ball at
Marysvllle Plgh School
and played a year
underneath the SC4
roster. Deciding to
take his talents to a
hlgher level, 8rown
became one of the
coaches on Lhe sLañ.
ºlL brlngs a player
polnL of vlew Lo Lhe
coaching side,” said
Brown.
Lven Lhough 8rown
is no longer able to
play the sport as a
player, he sald, ºl [usL
wanted to stay in
lL... l am here for Lhe
coaching aspect and at
least to keep the team
golng ln a posluve
dlrecuon as besL as l
can.”
According to Brown,
he has coached before
at his high school,
and also while being
a player last year at
SC4. So, between his
skills on the court as
a power forward and
being an assistant
coach, he would be
the perfect choice to
teach the players of
tomorrow.
8rown belleves, º
1he mosL crlucal Lhlng
ls [usL eñorL and hard
work...and what the
players need to know
is that it takes hard
work and eñorL Lo
get to the point to
be beuer Lhan Lhelr
(the other team) best
player.”
Lven Lhough
Brown has had a
great experience
throughout his
basketball and
coaching career, so far,
nothing compares to
being next to Coach
Dale Vos.
Vos has been the
coach for St. Clair
County Community
College for 20 years
and has much success
with men’s basketball
program. When asked
about being next to
Lhe very successful
Dale Vos, Brown
exclalmed, ºl llke
Dale as a person and
as a Coach...[usL Lo
be by hlm and have
Lhe connecuon wlLh
him is a big help me
personally and it’s a

Brown plans to
conunue hls way
on coaching men’s
basketball in the
fuLure and conunue
to be the player that
became the coach.
