University re-opens after break
Oklahoma State University’s campus re-opened today after being closed for a week and a half to give employees a break for the holidays. Gary Shutt, director of communications, said campus closes from Dec. 24 until after New Year’s each year. “It’s an opportunity to give employees time off,” he said. “Things have slowed down.” Faculty and staff who have access to offices can use them to prepare for the next semester or conduct research, but activity is minimal compared to the bustle of 18,000 students. Closing campus buildings is also an opportunity for the university to cut energy costs. Heat and electricity are shut off, which creates significant energy savings, Shutt said. People who are visiting relatives for the holiday sometimes stop by to tour campus, however, he added, and some students stay in university housing during the break, especially international students unable to go home. Boshen Fu, from Panjin in China, stayed on campus, except for five days when he traveled to Santa Fe, N.M., and Las Vegas, Nev. He said he didn’t go home because it was too costly and he didn’t have time. He is a mechanical engineering research assistant, so his break has been the same as the university’s closing period. He starts work again today. Fu said not many students stayed at University Apartments, where he lives. He said having nowhere to go when the buildings were closed made the days dull, but he didn’t mind staying during the break.

Cowboys Blast Northwestern State, 122-73
Oklahoma State scored a season-high 66 first-half points and went on to rout Northwestern State, 122-73, on Saturday.
James Anderson, who finished with 27 points, led four Cowboys with at least 20 points. Terrel Harris, Obi Muonelo and Keiton Page scored 23, 22 and 21, respectively. It marked just the second time in school history that four different players scored 20 points in the same game.
Muonelo also grabbed 12 rebounds, collecting his sixth double-double of the season.
Nick Sidorakis also reached double figures with 11 points and OSU (10-3) tied a school-record for 3-point field goals made (15) and turned in the fifth-best point total in school history.
The Cowboys's improved to 152-2 at home in regular-season non-conference games since 1987. One of those losses was to Northwestern State in December of 2005.
The 10th meeting between the programs was over early in the second half as the hosts took an 80-39 lead with 14:54 to play in the game. Charles Clark's bucket with 14:30 left accounted for the first points of the second half for the Demons (8-7).
Oklahoma State will host Savannah State on Tuesday, Jan. 6, at approximately 8 p.m. inside Gallagher-Iba Arena.
Cowgirl Basketball Routs Texas-Pan American, 85-36
Behind a school-record 14 3-pointers, Oklahoma State’s women’s basketball team reeled off its seventh consecutive victory on Saturday, defeating Texas-Pan American, 85-36, in front of 3,250 fans inside Gallagher-Iba Arena.
The Cowgirls (10-2) had six different players hit from beyond the arc to surpass their previous single-game best of 13 made 3-pointers set on Dec. 29, 2005 against Prairie View A&M.
Already leading 44-22 at the half, OSU outscored the Lady Broncs (8-8) 41-14 over the final 20 minutes to extend its non-conference home winning streak to 31 games. In the half, UTPA hit just five of its 24 shots and finished the game with 25 turnovers.
OSU spread the wealth offensively en route to a 46 percent shooting effort, finishing with five players in double figures in the scoring column. The Cowgirls also dished out 22 assists against just nine turnovers on the night.
All five of junior Tegan Cunningham’s field goals came from deep on her way to a game-high 17 points.
Senior Shaunte’ Smith added 12 points and a game-high nine rebounds, while junior Andrea Riley also scored 12 points to go with five assists and five steals. With her assist total, Riley moved past Stacy Coffey for fourth place on the school’s all-time chart and now has 382 for her career.
Senior Taylor Hardeman connected on three 3-pointers and recorded new season highs with six rebounds and six assists in the victory.
Junior Megan Byford was the fifth Cowgirl to reach double figures, scoring 10 points in 16 minutes of work off the bench.
Epiphany Smith led UTPA with 15 points.
The Cowgirls will be back in action on Tuesday night at 5:30 p.m. when they host Centenary in Stillwater. Tip was originally scheduled for 6 p.m., but was moved up 30 minutes due to the game being the front end of a doubleheader with the men’s team.
