Florida Atlantic University’s Hospitality & Tourism Management program is among the top 30 in the United States, according to the latest rankings published by The Best Schools Magazine. Located in the College of Business, the program offers an AACSB-accredited Bachelor of Business Administration degree with a major in hospitality and tourism management, as well as a Master of Business Administration in hospitality and tourism management. The wait to experience Boca Raton’s new science playground is almost over, park officials say. Visitors to Sugar Sand Park at 300 S. Military Trail will have access to the playground Nov. 19 after about eight months of construction and an anticipated $1.8 million in project fees. Florida Atlantic University’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine has entered into an agreement with the Donna Klein Jewish Academy (DKJA) to permit DKJA high school students who are interested in the fields of medicine and science to participate in educational tours and visits to the University campus. The “season” has officially begun as Kelly Smallridge, president of the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County, welcomed a sellout crowd to the annual gala at the Breakers. It was an evening of renewal as friends got to visit and enjoy the BDB’s great event. Underlying the festivities was Kelly’s report on the continuing success of the BDB in attracting companies and jobs to Palm Beach County (exceeding the goals for last year).

Community Trio Nabbed in Auto Theft Spree Three accused car thieves, including a 15-year-old, are behind bars after authorities put the brakes on their crime spree this week. Police charged Anthonee Boggs, 19, of Pompano Beach, and Tyrell Prince, 18, of Oakland Park, with Grand Theft Auto. A 15-year-old boy, who is not being named because of his age, was also charged. The arrests happened about shortly after 2 a.m. Tuesday following an operation, which included law enforcement officials from five agencies in Broward and Palm Beach counties. Authorities said the trio stole four vehicles - a Cadillac, a Toyota Tundra, a BMW and a Mercedes Benz – including three
from Boca Raton, around the same time. The suspects allegedly sole the first car in Broward County then drove to Boca Raton, where they ditched the first car then try to steal the three other cars, police said. Two of the suspects fled from police. Prince drove south into Margate where a police officer arrested him, and the second, driven by the 15-year-old, north. Police caught him in Delray Beach after he ditched the car and ran behind a house, police said. Boggs, who tried to get into the BMW as it drove away, was caught almost immediately.
City of Boca Raton Celebrates Arbor Day with Tree Planting
The City of Boca Raton will be hosting its 37th annual Arbor Day Tree Planting Celebration at University Woodlands Park located at 2501 St. Andrews Boulevard on Monday, October 3rd at 10 a.m. All citizens are invited to attend this free event which recognizes and celebrates the importance of trees to our quality of life. According to Dawn Sinka, the City’s Horticulturalist/Arborist, 24 slash pines will be planted on the grounds of University Woodlands Park. “These species of trees are chosen based upon what is found at the park naturally, how much space is available for the mature canopy, and the end result of how we envision the park in the future.” University Woodlands Park was the recipient of the Arbor Day plantings in 2015 which were also slash pines. Just as in 2015, the pines are being planted to restore an area that was invaded by invasive exotic vegetation. The children of the City’s GAP Camp Program will be participating in the festivities and assisting in the planting of the new pine trees at the park. “Palm Beach County Schools are not in session on Monday, October 3rd, and the City’s Gap Camp is open, so this
Arbor Day Celebration is a great educational, handson field trip for our children,” said Jessica Godoy, Youth Program Director. “They get to tag the trees they plant and can come back to check on their progress as they grow.” Boca Raton was selected as a Tree City in 2016 for the 36th consecutive year; and Mayor Susan Haynie will be accepting the Tree City USA award during the event. Mark Torok, who represents the Everglades District for the Florida Forest Service, will be presenting the award on behalf of the Forest Service and the National Arbor Day Association. In order to qualify for a Tree City Designation, the City must have a tree board or department, have a tree care ordinance, have a community forestry program with a minimum annual budget, and have an annual Arbor Day observance and proclamation, explained Nora Fosman, the City’s Senior Environmental officer. Mayor Susan Haynie presented the Arbor Day proclamation at the September 26th City Council Workshop. Home to 93,000 residents, Boca Raton is a true full-service city offering five miles of beautiful beaches, cultural offerings, parks and recreational amenities, world-class shopping and dining, top rated schools and universities and a thriving business community. Located in the southernmost region of the Palm Beaches, Boca Raton is consistently ranked as one of America’s Best Cities in which to live, learn, work and play.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen
Building Community, Police Trust is a Two-Way Street In the last couple of days, I have been peppered with questions from many, including close friends, elected leaders and cohorts in the media on my take on the continuous police related shootings – particularly those of black men. Until we acknowledge that an issue exists, take actions to educate everyone and genuinely address the issue, I see this as a reality we will continue to experience considering the political climate in which we now live. After each shooting, instead of playing Monday morning quarterback, I try to steer the conversation from that incident to the broader issue: how to forge meaningful relationships between the police and the community to prevent another senseless killing. There is a lot of anger, fear and distrust between the community and law enforcement. So, the only way to address this issue is to foster a relationship where the larger society feel safe and protected and law enforcement personnel do not feel hesitant to do their job of protecting and serving the residents. In serving their communities, it is important that law enforcement officers get out and get involved in community activities.
Rebuilding that trust can be difficult, but it is not impossible because the residents in south Palm Beach County enjoy a fairly good relationship with their law enforcement personnel. The Boca Raton and Delray Beach police as well as the Sheriff ’s Office do an outstanding job infusing themselves in the daily activities of the community. It is not unusual to find a police officer in athletic gear challenging local youths in a game of basketball, football or softball. Just recently, police officers in Delray Beach partnered with a few groups and with the help of local volunteers distributed 150,000 pounds of canned goods, fresh produce, freshly laid eggs, chicken, bread and other items to more than 600 people at a giveaway. Still, we cannot afford to rest on our laurels. It took years of hard work, particularly from beat officers, for these relationships to reach their current levels. And it will take hard work to maintain it. To build, bolster and sustain respect, trust and legitimacy, there are several things police departments ¬¬¬¬need to do. First and foremost, there needs to be
transparency in the agency. The community needs to know what the policies and procedures are of their law enforcement agency, and if they are not followed, the violations will be addressed in a fair and unbiased manner. It is equally important that the diversity of the community they serve is reflected in the makeup of the department. It is also important that law enforcement agencies work with bridge-building organizations and leaders in their communities. In every community there are key groups of people who have their ears to the ground as well as the trust of the community. Find these organizations and people to partner with. For example, the chief of police in Delray Beach or other members of his executive staff meets regularly with the Elders, a group of senior men, at a local restaurant or with another group of men at Dunkin Donuts. When people see interactions like that it diffuses the fear many harbor for the “guys and gals” in blue. It also would be advantageous to include all voices in the community, especially the youth and those who feel marginalized or excluded.
The disconnect between law enforcement and the community is particularly wide between police and young people, especially youth of color. Police are not the only ones who need to take responsibility for building and maintaining a positive relationship with the people they serve. Communities should also be taking active steps to ensure that trust is being built, and engage with law enforcement officials in positive ways. Parents should teach their children that the police are not the bad guys but are there to protect their civil rights and civil liberties. They also must explain that at times, the police in doing their jobs, may do what can be considered as detrimental to the community – especially when residents are breaking the law. Offenders have to be arrested to protect those not involved. However, the method in which the police carry out the law can either enhance the trust process or degrade it, so it is a twoway street. Trust on both sides is not given, it has to be earned.
POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.
Integrity is a Non-Negotiable! Integrity is a necessary quality for every human encounter, especially in transactions between people. When it is practiced, the results are inevitably positive. When it’s lacking, persons involved with those interactions remain in doubt, or become fully aware of what’s missing. As a result, a negotiation cannot proceed as it should! There are many things in life where compromises can be legitimately made without robbing anyone from what is due unto them. Integrity, however, is an element that cannot be compromised, for it’s on the basis of its presence in any life that guarantees its final, honest success! Sadly, in practically every realm
of daily living, integrity is not being taken as seriously as it is necessary. The word of one that should be as precious as gold, is often being falsified. Promises are made and not kept; a product is introduced to others as being of high quality when, in reality, it is not. Integrity is associated with truth but today truth is no longer viewed and practiced by some with the solemnity and accuracy which it demands. In fact, there are people who have dethroned truth from something so basic and high in life as it should remain. Others, even question the very possibility of truth, as originally defined! From my title above, I happen
to be among those who still firmly believe that integrity is a non-negotiable in all facets of life, especially when human communication is being conducted. If a product being sold is to achieve the benefits others can have from it, as announced by the seller, integrity needs to be a key element in the negotiations. Deception is one of the opposites of integrity. Tragically, so much in contemporary society is carried on with a deceptive motive, regardless of the damage it shall bring whether to one individual or to several more persons. Yet, we all know that where truth prevails in any small or great activity, the results will always be positive and rewarding. And the benefits of integrity
are not only for one of the participants of any interactions, but for both. It must be real in small things first before they can be seen in major transactions. It relates to one’s word of mouth, or written communications, as well as regarding the actual delivery of what was ordered and purchased. There shouldn’t be any fear in the practice of what is true and right. Therefore, integrity is nothing for anyone to fear, but to observe with interest and to fulfill in both great and small things. If more integrity is observed in any society, greater shall always be the benefits harvested by the members of that community, and the final rewards are equally great and beneficial to all!

JFS at Home Holds Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Boca Raton based JFS at Home, a non-profit private home care agency affiliated with Ruth & Norman Rales Jewish Family Services (JFS), recently partnered with Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce to hold a ribbon cutting ceremony for its offices in west Boca Raton. Operating as an independent entity, JFS at Home has been providing quality care at home for the elderly since its soft opening this past May. The Agency’s mission is to “promote healthy aging by enabling clients to maintain their quality of life while they continue to live at home, safely and with dignity.” The Agency is accomplishing this by providing trusted, compassionate, Companions, Home Health Aides and Certified Nursing Assistants to clients residing primarily in Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Highland Beach. These professionals are available around the clock to offer quality care and assistance to promote wellness and independence. Aging in place, the familiarity and security of living in one’s own home, offers
much comfort, which is why most seniors want to remain residing at home as long as possible. “When a loved one is challenged with health issues, additional assistance and care may be required,” stated Danielle Hartman, JFS President & CEO. “JFS at Home is committed to providing exceptional care and offer affordable options in home health care to its clients. While it’s often emotionally difficult to make decisions about how to best care for a loved one, there comes a time when the next step must be taken. JFS at Home provides families a sense of comfort knowing that their loved ones are cared for at home safely.” “In 2015 the JFS Board of Directors approved a strategic plan which included planning for the future needs of seniors in our community. As a result, the JFS Board approved the creation of a separate yet affiliated homecare agency, JFS at Home. As the Treasurer of the JFS Board of Directors and the President of the JFS at Home Board of Directors, I am very excited to be a part of the launch of this new endeavor,” said David Schimel. Since opening in May, JFS at Home currently services 75 clients and is on track to reach their goal of becoming a $1M entity by the end of 2017. JFS at Home is seeking additional client focused and professionally experienced Companions, Home Health Aides and Certified Nursing Assistants to add to their team.

FAU, Local Academy Affiliate for Medical Studies Program By: Kelsie Weekes Florida Atlantic University’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine has entered into an agreement with the Donna Klein Jewish Academy (DKJA) to permit DKJA high school students who are interested in the fields of medicine and science to participate in educational tours and visits to the University campus. The DKJA Medical Studies Program, which began in August, is offered to students enrolled in a sciencebased curriculum at DKJA’s Claire and Emanuel G. Rosenblatt High School. The affiliation with FAU’s College of Medicine will allow these students the opportunity to visit with medical school faculty, researchers and students during the school year. “FAU is committed to providing opportunities for young people in our area to become exposed to the healthcare professions,” said Arthur J. Ross, III, M.D., M.B.A., interim dean and professor in the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine. “We see this investment of our time as paying future dividends in terms of inspiring and retaining the next generation of healthcare providers for Palm Beach and Broward counties.”
www.bocaratontribune.com
Participants in the DKJA Medical Studies Program will be able to visit research laboratories, spend an afternoon in a clinical simulation laboratory, listen to a lecture on medical ethics, meet with an admissions officer and talk to current students about their experience in medical school. They are encouraged to pursue internships in the medical field and conduct independent research in the fields of medicine and science under the guidance of a DKJA faculty mentor. To successfully complete the program, DKJA students also must take biology, chemistry, physics and an additional science course during their academic career at Rosenblatt High School.

I attended the luncheon, fashion show and re-opening of the Wick Costume Museum. A very very large group of Boca movers and shakers were in attendance. Food was delicious and then we were taken into the theater for a short performance and fashion show led by Marilyn Swillinger for Neiman Marcus. After the show we went to the Costume Museum next door to the re-opening. All in all a wonderful afternoon. Thank you Yvonne Boice for inviting me.

In an increasingly “civilized” world, it is getting harder and harder to find indigenous people who live their traditional ways. “Tanna” is about a remote civilization of indigenous people who live on an island off the coast of Australia. “We resisted colonials, we resisted Christians,” declared the tribal chief. “But we must find a way to make love marriage part of Kastom,” “Tanna” is a kind of Romeo and Juliet story set on a remote South Pacific jungle island. Wawa (Marie Wawa) and Dain (Mongou Dain) are from opposing tribes on their island. The tribes have a tradition of arranged marriages. Dain is the grandson of one of the tribal chiefs. Wawa is a member of the opposing tribe. For diplomatic reasons Wawa’s chief has matched her with a member of the opposing tribe, but not Dain. Instead of going through with the marriage, Wawa flees with Dain into the jungle. “Tanna” reminds me of the

National Geographic documentaries I used to see as a child. All the females are bare-chested. The men are naked except for a penis sheath. Life revolves around animal sacrifice and drinking a brew made with Kava, which is a mild psychedelic. Life continues much as it did when Capt. James Cook discovered the islands in 1774. Dain and Wawa’s defiance of the tribal elders shakes the very foundation of Kastom, or tradition. None of the actors are professionals. Filmmakers Martin Butler and Bentley Dean spent seven months living among the natives to make this movie. It is not exciting but it is beautiful; even the active volcano which dominates the island. The story is based on actual events that occurred in 1987. The main lesson learned is that all tradition is not right or just. It sometimes takes sacrifice to break out of that straitjacket.

Floridian Community Bank has officially opened the doors to its fifth South Florida branch located in the heart of Boca Raton. The branch is conveniently located just across from Mizner Park on a high-traffic section of US1. The bank interior is the plush Caribbean-style atmosphere that bank patrons have come to love. Hours are 9-5 (Mon-Thurs) and 9-6 (Friday). Florida Atlantic University’s incoming freshman class boasts the highest GPA in the university’s history. For the fall semester, the average high school GPA for first-time-in-college (FTIC) students is a 3.96, up from a 3.82 last fall. FAU received more than 20,500 freshman applications and more than 8,300 transfer applications for fall. The total number of new freshmen enrolled at the Boca Raton campus is 3,243. FAU’s Harriet L. Wilkes Honors College at the John D. MacArthur Campus in Jupiter will welcome 143 new students for this semester. Palm Beach County ocean lifeguards could be getting a pay raise. County commissioners instructed staff to begin talks with the union that represents lifeguards on boosting pay and rewriting their job description to potentially make them eligible for better retirement benefits. New pet stores in Palm Beach County will no longer be able to sell dogs or cats as part of an effort to crack down on substandard breeders known as puppy mills. Commissioners approved the measure despite concerns from animal advocates.
Boca Raton’s iconic carousel at Sugar Sand Park will reopen at 10 a.m. Friday after a 17-day closure for safety repairs. The popular attraction at 300 S. Military Trail will sport fresh paint and more secure support beams, among other improvements. Park officials closed the carousel Sept. 6 after an inspection showed a dozen issues with it, including corrosion, deterioration, wood rot and loose trims. Crews from Valrico-based Custom Painting & Designs took apart the carousel to fix its inner workings. It cost about $24,800. The carousel has been at the park for a decade, with an average of 160,000 visitors each year. This was its first major repair. “Gutenberg! The Musical!” runs through Oct. 2 at Sol Theatre, 3333 N. Federal Hwy., Boca Raton. Showtimes are 8 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays; 2 p.m. matinees Sundays. Tickets are $25 ($10 for students). To order, call 561-4478829 or go to EveningStarProductions. org. Andrea O’Rourke will have her campaign kickoff party at The Wick Theatre on September 30th at 5:30pm Park Place, the new shopping center being built on Military Trail just south of Office depot world headquarters, will have plenty of lunch places, including Rappys Deli, Fresh Kitchen, Raw juice, Phenonenom, Habit Burger, Burton’s Grill and Fresh Market. Palm Beach County homeowners will see higher property tax bills under a $4.3 billion budget given final approval. On top of that, they might also soon be paying more in sales tax if a referendum passes in the Nov. 8 election. Most of the additional property tax dollars will go to the Palm Beach County Sheriff ’s Office, along with filling county positions cut during the economic downturn, replenishing reserves and funding road repairs,
Confusing Joy With Happiness My topic for today – joy – is not something we often talk about in the business and professional world. We commonly speak about happiness and being happy, whether it concerns finalizing a contract, attracting a new client, making a sale, receiving a promotion or a pay raise, or finding a new job we feel certain will be more fulfilling and rewarding. Such events make us happy. But when was the last time you heard someone speak about experiencing joy? Recently some friends and I were talking about these two seemingly similar words, joy and happiness. However, during the course of our discussion we realized that in important ways, they are very different. Happiness, for example, has a lot to do with what is happening at the moment. I can feel happy because it is not raining, or I might become unhappy simply because my coffee got cold. Joy, on the other hand, is more about attitude. Joy is a way of life, how we approach everyday events, both good and bad, while happiness typically is situational. Joy also can be more of a personality trait, an inner quality of well-being that permeates every part of person’s life. An observation that came from our discussion was how our level of joy can have an effect on what brings us happiness. For example, if we are joyful, we tend to see the good in many things: little pleasures will make us happy, and problems can be viewed as challenges rather than as insurmountable obstacles. People without joy in their lives will have a lot of trouble finding happy moments, and every problem they encounter will be perceived as a major hassle. I consider myself joyful, which means even seemingly inconsequential things can make me happy. I am fortunate that every business I have been involved
in was designed to make people happy. Whether as an entertainer, photo finisher, coffee house owner, or most recently, a restorer of old photos, I have seen most people I have worked with leave with big smiles on their faces. A good cup of coffee can bring a smile to a coffee lover’s face, but not nearly as much as seeing old family pictures brought back to life. Interestingly, the Bible says little about “happiness,” but it speaks extensively about “joy.” Here are a few things it tells us about how we should approach each day, whether we are at work, in our homes, or pursuing our favorite interests and hobbies: Joy should be a constant companion. If someone tells you they are always happy, be skeptical. Because everyone faces unpleasant situations in life. But inner joy is a quality that is not dependent on outward circumstances. So we are told to, “Be joyful always” (1 Thessalonians 5:16). Joy is not defined by circumstances. If someone told you, “Be happy, no matter what happens,” would you agree? And yet the Bible instructs us, “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything” (James 1:2-4). Joy is dictated by our faith and trust in God. Another passage, also written by the apostle Paul, who was no stranger to adversity, declares joy a byproduct of growing faith in God. “And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God… we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope…” (Romans 5:2-5).

Max Planck-FAU Brings Premier Doctoral Program to the US
November 18-20 By: Cara Perry The nation’s first International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) for Brain and Behavior, a renowned doctoral degree program brought to Jupiter via a collaboration with Florida Atlantic University, recently launched for the fall semester welcoming five students from FAU and 10 other students from around the world. The first class was selected through a competitive process that included in-person interviews at Max Plank Florida Institute for Neuroscience (MPFI) and at the University of Bonn, Germany. More than 200 student applications were received for the coveted spots. “With this new doctoral program, neuroscience research in South Florida will be elevated to a global platform, one that provides the ideal environment for developing the next generation of scientific leaders,” said David Fitzpatrick, Ph.D., scientific director and chief executive officer of MPFI. “Having the opportunity to learn from an international team of investigators at the cutting edge of brain research is a fantastic cata-
lyst for high impact discoveries.” Max Planck’s IMPRS have been educating doctoral candidates since 2000 in fields ranging from chemistry, physics and technology, to biology and social sciences. MPFI, in collaboration with FAU, University of Bonn, and the Center for Advanced European Studies and Research (Bonn, Germany), is bringing IMPRS to the United States with a special emphasis on brain and behavior studies. IMPRS for Brain and Behavior students are fully-funded Ph.D. positions in neuroscience. Using state-of-the-art technology, they will explore multiple aspects of brain function including the neural basis of sensory processing, motor control and learning and memory. “This program is an amazing opportunity and some of the best students in the world are coming to Jupiter, Fla. to study the brain,” said Rod Murphey, Ph.D., director of FAU’s Jupiter Life Science Initiative. “They will be exposed to the best neuroscientists in the world, mentored by an outstanding cadre of faculty on two continents and trained to solve some of the most important basic and clinical problems involving the brain and behavior.”
Proceeds from the event benefit the fight against drug abuse and child neglect in Florida.

sports Pair of Undefeated High Schools Face Off
FAU Falls to Ball State at home after numerous lighting delays
By: Stephanie Fonseca Photos by: Gabriela Heizer By: Stephanie Fonseca
In the world of high school football, everyone wants to be and beat the best. This week in high school football four teams who are all off to an undefeated start go head to head. Boca High (4-0) and Pahokee(5-0) faceoff this Friday at 7p.m. at Boca High. Boca high has been off to a good start in comparison to other years and as Coach Davis for the Bobcats said, the boys are finding their groove. They went from giving up scores they knew they couldn’t to a 63-7 run in their last two games. Pahokee is on the same route with an average of 35 points per game and also is on an undefeated run. Not to mention that it’s Boca High’s Homecom-
ing football game. Many are looking forward to a high intensity and high scoring game between the two high scorers. The others are high school football giant, Dwyer High(4-0) of West Palm Beach, and Olympic Heights (4-0) of Boca Raton. Dwyer is the equivalent to the phrase, “the team to beat.” After almost losing their undefeated title to city rival Palm Beach Gardens,there is no doubt that Dwyer will come to Friday’s game with no mercy. Olympic Heights on the other hand is seeing their best start in years. But questions still stand if the Lions will hold off the top-ranked school in the district and strip them of their undefeated start. Dwyer will be at Olympic Heights this Friday at 7p.m.

Florida was not living up to the name, “the Sunshine State”, and was serving up stormy weather. Due to lighting close to the stadium players and fans were called off of the field and told to take shelter, postponing the game by 40 min. But even pushing back the game, fans chose to stand by and counted down the seconds to get into the stadium. With the game pushed up to 7 p.m. the FAU Owls were off to a good start against Ball State University. The first quarter was FAU’s game. With a fiveyard run into the endzone, quarterback Jason Driskle, put the Owls on the board with 7 minutes left in the first quarter. But different than FAU’s usual running game, despite the conditions, Driskle was not intimidated by the rain. Early in the first half, Driskle launched a 31-yard touchdown pass to Kalib Woods to double the Owls lead in the first quarter. Led by quarterback Riley Neal, Ball State came into the second quarter and fought back with a quick five possession play which ended with a 26yard touchdown pass by Neal to receiver Sam Brunner. Neal would later in the second quarter earn a rushing touchdown after a two plays by Ball State to tie the game late in the first half. FAU fought back and running back, Kerrith Whyte, found a way and was able to score his first career touchdown. After a response by Ball State that ended in a 39-yard field goal by kicker, Morgan Hagee, FAU fought hard to get ahead in the game but was unable to convert a 3rd and goal, coming up short at the one yard line and settled for a field goal by Greg I Joseph. Lightning held off for a little but was meaning to interrupt the game for a

third time. Ball State late in the 3rd quarter took advantage of a pass interference call and when FAU’s starting corner was called out, Neal let it fly and found Corey Lacanaria for a 29-yard touchdown pass, tying up the game. FAU found themselves in a tough spot and needed to put points on the board, but they were unable to progress down the field and settled for a 41 yard field goal by Greg I Joseph. However lightning struck and for the third time the game was postponed, this time with 5 min left to play . After a 30 min delay, both teams made it back to the field to warm up and get ready to finish off the game. The game was back in play and on their second possession after the lightning delay, Ball State quarterback Riley Neal, found a gap and rushed for a two-yard touchdown. Ball State was ahead 31-27, and a game where FAU had the lead the whole night seemed to be slipping from their fingertips. FAU had a minute on the clock but instead of delivering a ball to an FAU receiver, Jason Driskle’s throw found Ball State’s SAM linebacker, Damon Singleton Jr’s hands, whose interception clinched the win for the visiting team. “That last drive was the worst drive I’ve had all year,” explained Driskle after the game. “We had great guys out wide and I didn’t give them a chance. I played alright and for one half that's not enough.” After the game Head Coach Charlie Partridge was asked if the lightning delays had any effect on the loss and with a simple head shake he answered, “No.” Coach Partridge noted that there were signs of explosion but “at the end of the day, we come here to win games which we did not accomplish tonight,” and they look forward to the next challenge which will be FIU. Despite the bitter loss, FAU prepares for their next mission and will to go down to Miami, to play FIU on Saturday at 7 p.m.
