The Season Begins

    On October 6th, my teammates and I will head to Case Western Reserve in Cleveland to kick-off our 2021-2022 basketball season. To say I am excited, anxious and nervous would be an understatement. We have had this day marked on the calendar since the end of our season last year and we are very motivated. 

    I come into the year as junior, along with five other juniors and I feel confident especially with the veteran leadership we will have this year. We will be starting four juniors and one senior and that is very helpful with the amount of experience between all of us. The preseason has been an absolute grind, like always, but hopefully it all pays off when we tip the ball off this Saturday night. A lot of us are sore and beat up right now, but that always happens during the preseason. We will play St. John Fisher out of New York on Saturday, and they are a very good team which will be a great challenge for us. We will play Sunday no matter what, but it all depends if we win or lose Saturday on who we will play that day. 

    It is a big year for all of us and especially for the future of the next people to come. Having a good season can make Ohio Northern University a powerhouse for basketball in the future, and we have the potential to do it. We know exactly what we need to do this season and we are going to accomplish it, but it all starts as a team, just like anything else in life. We have great friendships and a brotherhood inside of our locker room and we just need to put it all together. Go Bears!

Marketing Campaigns

    We can use many things in the social media world to our advantage, including social media marketing campaigns. In short, it is a campaign used to target an audience and advance your business and company in the long-run. It can also come from actions that can lead to influencers or audience to certain types of things. These campaigns can be most affective just like a lot of other things and that is by setting your goals and audience before you start your campaign.      You need to know where you want your campaign located at and what you want it to do. For example, social media is the main spot but you can also have it in other spots that can reach awareness also. Having your target audience is important, but you also want to know what the people in your target audience are interested with. For example, the social media apps that they are most active on, older people are more active on Facebook versus Snapchat, so it is important to know that. Also, setting a...

College Football Playoffs

     In 2014, college football finally introduced the idea we had been waiting on, The College Football Playoffs. This meant that instead of only two teams getting a chance at the national championship, it would know be four teams. Everyone that enjoys college football was very happy when this was announced.       The first year it was introduced, the final four teams happened to be Ohio State, Oregon, Alabama, and Florida State. In the first round, Oregon defeated Florida State and Ohio State defeated Alabama in an instant classic. This meant it would end up being Oregon versus Ohio State in the championship game. Ohio State went on to defeat Oregon by a score of 42-20 and celebrated winning the first ever college football national championship. I still remember Ohio State winning this game and I lost my mind. I thought it was awesome to see Ohio State win the national championship, but especially with it being the first year of the playoffs. ] ...

First Half, First Semester

    My senior year of college is flying right by. It is crazy to think we are almost complete with the first six weeks of the semester. It seems like just yesterday I was moving back into my house for the school year. I am trying to cherish every moment this year and slow time down as much as possible because the real world is sitting on my doorstep.        This semester has been good for me so far. Since I moved in six weeks ago, I have been back home for a total of four hours, which can be hard for me sometimes. I finally got home last Saturday for a couple hours and it was fantastic. I got to see my family and go out to eat with them at Side Rail in Wapakoneta. Those are the moments I will never trade for the world, and I always cherish them. Busy has been an understatement this semester. Between practices, classes, and projects, I have been moving non-stop since I came back to Ada. Some people have mixed feelings about always being busy, but I love it. ...
