Coach?s Candor
Editor’s note: Seventh-year track and cross country head coach Rod DeHaven has seen athletes break 42 school records under his tenure at SDSU. We caught up with him to get his feelings on the Jacks’ track season. Q. What are your thoughts on Sean Burns and Ben Jasinski great season’s so far? A. Our men’s [...]
Jacks? worst shooting night dooms them in UMKC loss
Drue AmanSports Editor Matchups at Frost Arena this season have routinely shown the venue as a premiere harbinger for offense. Not tonight. And not in SDSU’s favor, either. The Jackrabbits (13-8, 5-5) found few semblances of the offensive firepower expected of their 14th nationally ranked scoring offense and allowed a 10-point lead to slowly erode [...]
Jacks Clobber Thunderbirds
Marcus TraxlerAssistant Sports Editor When it’s crunch time, teams go to players they can rely on. The SDSU women’s basketball team might finally have some suitors for that role. In a season where points have not always been plentiful, the Jackrabbits saw their leading players carry the way on Jan. 29 against Southern Utah, leading [...]
Sunnarborg and the Jacks power past the Kangaroos, 81-57
Marcus TraxlerAssistant Sports Editor Without a doubt, the SDSU women’s basketball team has been inconsistent this season. Jennie Sunnarborg hasn’t been lately. On Jan. 31, the Jackrabbits worked their way to an 81-57 victory over UMKC, powered by a career-high 28 points from Sunnarborg. The 6′ 2″ junior has been building to a game like [...]
Koob analyzes all things Packers-Steelers
Shane KoobPackers Hater First off, let me get this out of the way before you continue reading: I was born and raised a Vikings fan, so for me to come out and say I’m rooting for the Packers would be considered a sin in my family. With that out of the way, how excited are [...]
Wrestling gets walloped on the road
Shane KoobSportswriter Youth and inexperience: two words that come to mind when looking at the roster and the win/loss column for the Jackrabbit wrestling team. It’s not the team’s fault. After being swept 49-0 by #21 Wyoming last Friday, and with a 38-6 loss last Saturday to Air Force (both matches on the road), the [...]
Chef Extraordinaire Frederic Cone presents: Super Sunday appetizers
Frederic Cone Although my team the Seattle Seahawks were knocked out of Super Bowl contention by the Chicago Bears, I still can’t wait to watch the Super Bowl on Feb. 6 and see if my other favorite team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, can win against the Green Bay Packers. Every year on Super Bowl Sunday, my [...]
Your Collegian football pros make their picks
Steelers supporters: Marcus Traxler, Assistant Sports Editor Yeah, yeah, history – we got it. The Packers and Steelers are two of the most legendary teams of all-time and it should be a great game between two defenses that will likely try to impose their will on the opposing offense. They will fail because the NFL [...]
Jacks Clobber Thunderbirds
Drue AmanSports Editor Who needs defense? Neither SDSU or Southern Utah, apparently. Nate Wolters, Clint Sargent, and Jordan Dykstra did something no other Jacks triumvirate has done in seven seasons in a 96-79 win in the annual Pork Classic. That win doesn’t come with a defensive exclamation point, but the Jacks forced 20 turnovers and [...]
