Katelyn Henning, a CSU sophomore, and her boyfriend Damon Johnson were killed in a car accident March 13 in Kingman, Ariz. The next day, CSU freshman Larissa Hartman was killed driving through a storm on Highway 285 near Fairplay.

We learned that Darington Hobson loves to complain, CSU can’t handle full court pressure and Heath Schroyer still has no idea how to coach.

Less than a week removed from a difficult 74-60 loss to Morehead State and an early exit from the College Basketball Invitational, Rams head coach Tim Miles said he considers the 2009-2010 season a success, but still desires more.

Many people from all sides of the political sphere agree on this. But sadly, many calling for immigration reform have errantly linked the reasonable goal of immigration reform with the absurd desire to make English the exclusive language of our nation.

It was determined that his death was a suicide, according to a Coroner’s Office report released earlier this morning.

The Rams (16-15) lost a thriller to the San Diego State Aztecs (22-8) Wednesday afternoon in the opening round of the MWC Championships in Las Vegas.

Starting on March 17, the Rams (25-8-2) will begin their first game of the ACHA Division II National Tournament in Connecticut against the University of Maryland-Baltimore College and a chance at the national championship. After a successful regular season, the Rams have earned a two seed in their respective pool, finishing second behind CU-Boulder. Head coach Kelly Newton believes this team has a chance to build from previous years and make it all the way to the end. “Last year we got to the semifinals,” Newton said.
