January, 2005 director of the Sports Medicine Fellowship program
Passing of a Great Friend It is with great sadness that we must report the passing of long time BSU team physician Matthew Roush. The following was a press release from Jeff Reynolds, BYU Athletic Communications.
PROVO, Utah (Jan. 10, 2005) -- While traveling with the BYU women's gymnastics team in Cancun, Mexico, for the Cancun Classic Invitational, team physician Dr. Matthew Roush suffered a heart attack at the team's hotel. Roush passed away Saturday, January 8, as a result of complications from the heart attack. Roush's wife, Tiffany, was in Cancun with the team and was at his side when he passed away. "Dr. Roush was a very dear, personal friend," BYU head trainer George Curtis said. "I don't think we will begin to fully comprehend this tragic news for some time. He was a very dedicated physician, not only to the BYU athletics program, but also to the sports medicine program he directed for IHC. This is a great loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife and family at this time." Dr. Roush, who had served as a team physician at BYU for the past year, was the director of the Utah Valley Sports Medicine Clinic in Provo. He also served as the director of the Sports Medicine Fellowship program for Intermountain Health Care's Southern Region. Roush (41), a native of Ogden, Utah, received his bachelor's degree in chemistry from BYU in 1987. While attending BYU, he was also a member of the rugby team. Roush received his medical degree from the University of Utah and completed his residency program at the Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Phoenix, Ariz. After his fellowship at Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie, Ind., he served as the associate
at Ball Memorial Hospital. Roush also served as a team physician for Ball State University for 10 years until being recruited to IHC in 2003. Roush is survived by his wife Tiffany and the couple's six children. Funeral services have been tentatively planned for later this week. Additional details will be published later this week. In honor of Dr. Roush, the main flag on campus will be lowered to half staff on Friday.
From the Director’s Office Tom Weidner, PhD, ATC, LAT And so here we are again with this important opportunity to communicate with you about our Athletic Training Education Program. Please know that we consider you an invaluable asset and friend. Let me give you some brief updates regarding our students, clinical education, and faculty/staff. I am excited and pleased to share that both the quality and quantity of students applying to our Program has never been higher. We are getting applications from many freshmen and transfer students from throughout the state. Their GPAs, previous athletic training student experiences, community involvement, and professional maturity have been terrific. These strong students help us to maintain, and even elevate, the standards of our Program. To a significant degree, we depend on your referrals/recommendations for these students to enroll at BSU. Please keep up the good work as we are experiencing very positive growth. Too, the students currently in the Program are bringing a great deal of commitment and excellence to the table. A wonderful example of this is the fact that BSU won its first quiz bowl at the IATA state meeting in October! We had three different teams participate.

January, 2005 Our winning team now represents Indiana at the GLATA district competition in March, 2005. The “Golden Scissors” plaque and many hundreds of dollars of prize textbooks are being placed in the Athletic Training Lab. Our overall student attendance at this meeting was fantastic, as well. Through this year’s Athletic Training Club community service/fund-raising projects, we anticipate having finances to once again bring more students than any other university to the GLATA winter meeting. We are very pleased and appreciate Gary’s leadership as advisor of the club. The clinical education portion of our Program has also seen positive growth. This past summer, for instance, three of our students completed summer internships with professional or amateur teams. This included placements with the Indiana Fever (Liza Schuck), Indianapolis Colts (Darren Dase), and Michigan amateur hockey (Drew Buchanan). We note a rising interest and motivation from our students to complete these clinical experiences that are above and beyond Program requirements. With the assistance of our Medical Director (Dr. Kent Bullis), I am in the process of establishing a menu of alternative medical and allied medical settings/experiences from which our senior practicum students can choose. Examples include radiology, podiatry, physical medicine, and chiropractcy. Dr. Stacy Walker (our new faculty hire) is beginning to assume the coordination/leadership of clinical proficiency evaluation within our Program. As well, Dr. Walker and I are developing research grant proposals regarding evaluation of proficiencies. I believe that BSU is once again ahead of the curve nationally in this area. For many of you, who are Approved Clinical Instructors (ACIs) for our Program, please be reminded of the continuing training requirement to maintain this credential. Information about this requirement and your particular status in this regard is available at http://www.bsu.edu/web/00tgweidner/aci_completi on_list.htm. Once again, CEUs are awarded for this training. We deeply appreciate your commitment to our Program expressed through maintaining this credential and responsibility.
Our BSU Athletic Training staff continues to be an indomitable group. While straining to meet the demands of athletic health care, they are still making time to provide clinical instruction and mentorship for our athletic training students. Our total team package is one of professional commitment and personal relationships/support. We are proud that Tony Cox was recognized in the summer as the IATA collegiate athletic trainer of the year. What an asset a professional such as Tony is to our Program! I am also delighted to report that we are hiring another new faculty member for next fall. I am taking on the responsibility to capitalize on the large student interest in our program and to bolster the enrollment in the professional program. I ask you to please remember Shawn and Teresa in your thoughts and prayers. The continued physical and emotional strain they are under is exhausting. Because of the type of people they are, they carry on with life without being a burden to anyone. Talk about positive; this couple is the real deal and is a model for all of us as we face adversity in our lives. Request for Information Attention all BSU athletic training alumni and friends! I am working on creating archive of BSU athletic training photos. This would include any class photos, snapshots, or action photos of your time or connection with BSU athletic training. Those of you that were at the alumni gathering in Baltimore saw a small preview of what I would like to put together for the Ring of Honor/Alumni gathering this year in Indy. This also would be a great way to archive the rich and storied tradition of the Ball State Athletic Training program. So please e-mail or mail me your photo’s to the addresses below. If you mail them to me, I will get them scanned in and returned to you promptly. Thank for your support and Go Cards! Troy Hershman 92’ 1804 W. Earl Dr. Muncie, IN 47304 [email protected]

Note from Neal Fellow Alumni and Friends, It is with great appreciation for all of you that I write to you this day. Each of you has contributed to the storied and stoic history of Ball State University Athletic Training. From its infancy when the legendary Sayers “Bud” Miller first put us on the map up through the current day, Ball State University Athletic Training has developed and maintained a national reputation of which we are all very proud! This is a day and age that provides tremendous opportunity for the athletic training program. Never before has there been such a terrific resolve amongst our alumni to embrace, capture, and eternalize the wonderful history of OUR PROGRAM… the program that each and every one of you has helped formulate. The challenges in the profession of athletic training are well documented and Ball State University is certainly not immune to these challenges. Our alumni, friends and staff are our strength and will continue to sustain the program. Many of you have been very generous in supporting the memory, posterity and eternity of the program. We truly have something very special here at Ball State University. Unlike many professional opportunities that are just a job….BSU offers an experience and a permanent place in time and in its long standing history. In back to back football trips this past season, I had the unique opportunity to speak to Jim Dickerson, Denny Miller and Rex Sharp. In a one week span I was provided with a terrific review of athletic training history. Bud Miller’s father was the team physician for Pinky Newell at Purdue, which ultimately launched Bud into his legendary prominence in athletic training and athletic training education. Rex’s experience as a student and head athletic trainer at Ball State University covered the years 1975 to 1996 with the exception of a few years. JD’s legacy covers his days as the first athletic training student starting in 1958 up through the present day. His involvement with the program
trainer to program director of the education program and even to head tennis coach. Next year’s national convention will be one to behold and embrace! Please mark your calendars now and plan to attend June 12-16, 2005 in Indianapolis. We have already begun planning many festivities for our alumni. In the past year the staff has completed a comprehensive SWOT Analysis of the program along with formulating a strategic plan. This process in conjunction with the tremendous rallying of alumni support give us great cause for hope and the potential for a very bright future and a program of leadership. Alumni support has been absolutely fantastic! I can not imagine another program with such a dynamic, active and supportive alumni following. As a group you have been generous financially, with your moral support, suggestions, and creative endeavors.
2004-2005 Athletic Training Students and Staff The Cardinal Sports Medicine Society “Ring of Honor” is a medium set up by our alumni for our alumni and the continued advancement of the program. The potential for the Ring and the Fund (CVC # 880) is only limited by those of us who comprise Ball State University Athletic Training Alumni and Friends! The fund was established to ensure the perpetuation of the tradition and excellence of the program and its remembrance of those who have helped establish such a devout and strong program.

thank you very much for your financial support. Some may not yet be in a position to make a monetary commitment, but help out the program in one or more of many ways. (Time, energy, moral support, donation, teaching, etc). If you are in a position, please consider making a financial commitment to the Ring. It does not have to be a lot of money to make a difference. Please consider spreading a gift out over a 5 year period. There are also a couple tax advantages. For example, if you are a resident in the state of Indiana, you will receive a tax CREDIT (that’s dollars off your tax bill or dollars added onto your refund from your Indiana taxes). If you are single, you will receive a 50% annual Indiana tax credit up to $100 for a $200 annual gift. If you are married, you will receive a 50% annual Indiana tax credit up to $200 for a $400 annual gift. Additionally, you may be eligible for a federal tax deduction, potentially making a $400 annual gift to the Ring of Honor Fund only cost you $133. For those of you who do not know, the fund is utilized for the perpetual memory of the program, an appropriate reception to honor the inductees into the ring, rings for the inductees, scholarships, endowments, equipment needs for the program out of the budgetary realms, and possible staffing. Your gift can truly make a difference, please consider your commitment today. I would be glad to answer any questions you may have and welcome your involvement in the Ring of Honor! Yours in healthy Sports Medicine, Neal Athletic Training Club Gary Noble, MS, ATC, LAT Dr. Weidner and Neal are hard acts to follow. There is not a lot left to say after reading their pieces of this newsletter. However, I do believe that some things are worth repeating! Congratulations to Ben Fox, Ryan Mautz, and Ryan
last October. Their photo can be seen on page 40 of the January NATA News. Additionally congratulations to every student that participated in the IATA conference and competition. As mentioned by Dr. Weidner, our fall fundraising activity of raking leaves was once again a fantastic success. I would like to thank everyone who participated, especially Megan Nixon (fall 2004 graduate) for doing scheduling and contacting of interested individuals, everything ran much smoother this year because of her efforts. This year over the holiday season, we once again took part in a canned food drive during our November meeting and a toy drive during our December meeting/Christmas party. Last year I knew was going to be the record-setting year for food and toys collected, I could not have been more wrong. This year the athletic training club gathered just under 300 cans of food that were taken to the Salvation Army food bank and a bag of toys that made Santa Clause blush. I am so very proud of our students for their continued generosity and caring for others less fortunate! Finally I would like to congratulate the following students for having a 3.5 GPA or higher: Melissa Bernier, Catherine Bowen, Scott DiFrancesco , Amy Morton , Jennifer Short, Anna Adams, Renee Alvey, Kristen Malony, Erin Morton, Megan Supan, Ryan Mautz, and Liza Schuck. It is students such as these ones mentioned, as well as the rest of our students that make Ball State University Athletic Training a leader in the field
