Mackenzie Johnson has chosen an unfamiliar continent as the location of her upcoming summer adventure. Johnson, a junior double major in nutrition and Spanish, plans to spend a month doing mission work in Africa with an organization called Lifebread. Johnson and four other college interns will be going to Togo, a small country in West Africa, and will join Lifebread’s newest baking projects, providing food to needy people while sharing the message of the Bible. Johnson, originally from Indianapolis, said she was interested in the trip not because of the destination, but because it provides an opportunity to implement her education during the month-long internship. “The location wasn’t such a big deal,” Johnson said. “It wasn’t as big of a deal as what the ministry did. It really, really fits my major. Each of the interns has their own component; my component is nutrition education. If that’s what I’m going to do forever, this will be helpful.” As part of its baking projects, Lifebread builds ovens in villages in Africa and also teaches food safety and cooking classes to the locals. Johnson will be in Togo from May 15 to June 13 and then will spend 6 weeks traveling around the U.S., promoting Lifebread and talking about the efforts in Africa. Johnson commended Lifebread, saying that the organization has a very noble purpose. “I think it’s a good organization,” Johnson said, “I’m excited to be a part of the internship this summer.” Over the last few years, Johnson has been on numerous mission trips, mostly to Honduras. Because of her prior knowledge of Spanish, Johnson said this will be...

Respect, bragging rights, an undefeated record and an entire boulevard were at stake on Tuesday night when the Battle of the Boulevard went down inside Allen Arena. Coming off of a big win against USC Upstate, the Bisons had all the confidence in the world that they would be able to improve since the last time they faced the Bruins. The Bisons lost that game 88-52 less than two weeks ago. With the deck stacked against them coming into the game and for much of the first half, the Bisons were able to rally from an 18-point deficit with 24 minutes left in the game. “For the first 16 minutes, we were not very good,” Coach Scott Sanderson said. “We didn’t do anything we wanted to do offensively and defensively. I was extremely aggravated at our players.” In the last four minutes of the first half, the Bisons started their run. Trailing 38-20, the Bisons cut it to 40-31 with an 11-2 run that re-energized not only the team but the fans as well. Luckily for Sanderson, the Bisons did not stop their scoring when the half ended. The Bisons came out red-hot and outscored their cross-town rivals 42-24. “To come back from an 18-point deficit says even more about the resiliency of our players,” Sanderson said. “But it is one game with nine more games to go. We have 32 days to keep getting better until March gets here.” After the game at Belmont earlier this month, some questioned if Lipscomb center Adnan Hodzic was outmatched by Belmont big men Mick Hedgepeth and Scott Saunders. The Bosnian native...
