City says roads need improved by kaitlyn wilson

US Senate RACE

Coal culture trumps water Natalie Tennant unable to make January chemical spill an issue by hilary kinney

correspondent @dailyathenaeum

Morgantown’s City Council discussed several roads that may see improvements in the near future at the Committee of the Whole meeting Tuesday evening.

Bill Austin, of the Greater Morgantown Metropolitan Planning Organization, presented findings from three studies the MPO is currently conducting to examine traffic patterns throughout the city.

Greenbag Road has been an area of concern for some time and may be getting renovations to improve the road quality for drivers of cars, commercial trucks, pedestrieans and bicycles.

The MPO also saw a request for another access bridge to I-79. Austin said the current questions are whether or not there is truly a need for another river crossing and where to put it.

Possibilities for the location of the bridge include Eighth Street and the West Virginia University Coliseum. The final area of concern for traffic issues is University Avenue.

According to Austin, funds are available through the University and Sunnyside Up to improve areas for pedestrians and cyclists. The council also discussed the intersections of Third Street, Beverly Street and University Avenue as problematic areas for traffic. They are currently looking into solutions.

The discussion of the Bond Authorization Ordinance for Sunnyside TIF District, in relation to these traffic issues, was added to the agenda for the next meeting.

Morgantown Police Chief Ed Preston also joined the discussion at Tuesday’s meeting to update the council on the ongoing repair to the city from damages caused by riots following the Baylor Game and the police department’s plans for future home games.

Preston said while many repairs have been completed, the city is still waiting on some materials in order to finish the jobs. While several people have already been prosecuted for events following the Baylor game, police are still working with other officials to sort through information and hold others accountable for their actions.

There have also been a number of meetings revolving around pre-game planning between the police department, fire department, University Athletics and others, which will continue over the next few days to prepare for this week’s home game.

According to Preston, secondary and tertiary venues for manpower have been set up to provide extra support this weekend. He expects that it will be a busy and trying week with several events including Halloween, trickor-treating and the football game.

“We are expecting greater than normal nightlife activities,” he said. “From 6 a.m. until the bars close on Saturday night we will have all available manpower ready.”

Preston said the police will not stop responding to emergency calls unrelated to these activities, but may have to prioritize based on emergency need.

“Lives will always (come before) property,” he said.

Any inappropriate activity can be reported by dialing 911 or using the new Safetown smartphone app. Safetown is designed to share any information or recent

In January, a chemical leak in the Elk River in West Virginia polluted the drinking supply of more than 300,000 West Virginians, forcing them to buy bottled water, forego showers and washing dishes for up to two weeks. Nine months later, outrage over that disaster seems to have faded

the Elk River leak, agreed.

He said politicians who attempt to regulate any kind of industry in West Virginia are automatically pegged as “anti-business.”

“Nobody’s going to say, ‘Well, you know, we should have regulated this,’ because that reeks of Obama’s EPA coming after our jobs,” Humphreys said.

It all comes back to a culture that for decades has glorified coal and scorned anyone who tried to regulate the industry.

The chemical that leaked into the Elk River from a Freedom Industries storage tank was used in coalcleaning processes.

Trained service dogs draw public’s attention at WVU, ultimately rewarding for handlers by jennifer skinner staff writer @Dailyathenaeum

Chloe’s daily routine is similar to one of any college student: she wakes up early, gets on the PRT and goes to class. The only difference is that Chloe is a dog.

Trained and fostered by Erin Barthelmess, a graduate pharmacy student, Chloe, the 9-month-old golden retriever is one of several dogs in West Virginia University’s Hearts of Gold, an organization that teaches students to train service dogs.

Students in the program take a class that requires them to keep a service dog in training with them during several days of the week and teach them how to perform actions for their future handlers. Since the dogs are certified to be in public as part of their training, the student handlers bring their dogs everywhere they go during the day, including class, the Mountainlair, the Rec Center, the PRT and on buses.

Barthelmess frequently gets curious stares, whispers, secret Snapchatting and requests to pet Chloe when she brings her training service dog with her in public.

She reminds people to always ask before petting service dogs because it can distract the dogs.

Dogs in public places draw a lot of attention and interest from those who are interested in training dogs and students who are simply interested in bringing their own dogs with them anywhere they go.

“Mostly people who ask me questions are just curious about the class, but some ask about how to make their dogs service dogs,” Barthelmess said. “Having your dog everywhere you go is really fun but it’s really stressful whenever you have a dog in public and you always have to be on the lookout.”

According to the Americans with Disabilities Act, service dogs are defined as animals that actively perform some type of task for their handlers, such as turn-

online companies to send customers a fake dog vest and a “fancy-sounding letter” that claims the dog as an emotional support animal, according to Barthelmess.

Emotional support animals do not have the same rights as service dogs because they do not perform the same specific services for their handlers.

“Anytime you do that, it sort of discredits a service dog who has gone through years of training and their handler who has maybe gone their whole life with their disability,” Barthelmess said. “I don’t think that people realize that when they take their pets into public, it makes it that much harder for someone with a real disability and a real service animal to go Kenneth Redillas/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM into public.”

Fancred makes memories easier Senate elections right around the corner by courtney gatto staff writer @dailyathenaeum

For many sports fans, keeping pictures and memorabilia from games is a crucial part of the overall experience.

As the Mountaineers continue to make a name for themselves in the Big 12 with their current winning streak and upcoming College GameDay coverage, many fans may wish for an easier way to store keepsakes.

Kash Razzaghi, founder and CEO of an app called Fancred, has made an effort to solve this problem.

from the public discourse surrounding the heated senate race between Secretary of State Natalie Tennant (D) and Rep. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va. With less than a week left until the Nov. 4 midterm election, some say Tennant has been unable to make the chemical spill an issue in the current campaign because of the state’s pro-coal and anti-regulatory culture. Tennant has

also been struggling because, as secretary of state, she belongs to a state administration whose lax attitude toward regulation was largely to blame for the chemical spill.

“Growing up, I was always a really big sports fan.

Whenever I’d go to games, I would always save everything associated with that game in the form of ticket stubs, programs, pictures and pom poms- I would always have this sports collection,” Razzaghi said. “Over the years I would save all those things in this shoe box and I grew a large collection of shoe boxes. So what we’re doing at Fancred is giving fans a better way of saving things that are meaningful to them.”

Fancred is an app for smart phones that is designed to give sports fans the opportunity to save and share photos, videos and ar-

ticles regarding their favorite teams, all while being able to follow and communicate with other fans- without ever having to pick up a shoe box.

“When you’re at a game, you take pictures and you can communicate with other people and save all those moments,” Razzaghi said. “Fancred is a great way to build a digital scrapbook of your life as a sports fan.”

In order for users to view content for specific teams or sports in general, that they are interested in, Fancred has created what they call “Team Feeds”.

With the midterm elections less than a week away, the two nominees competing for a seat in the U.S. Senate have the chance to make history in West Virginia by becoming the first woman to serve as a Senator for the state. Both have very similar goals in mind for their home state but disagree on how to implement them.

Running for the Republican Party is Shelley Moore Capito. Capito has already made her stance in the state’s

history, having been the first Republican woman elected to the U.S. Congress from West Virginia. She has a very good chance of making history for another reason as well, by becoming the first Republican senator representing the state since 1956.

Capito has had plenty of experience in congressional politics. She was elected to the 30th District of the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1996 and served two terms. She has been the U.S. Representative for West Virginia’s 2nd Congressio-

NASHVILLE, N.C. (AP) — A gunman opened fire on two men in front of the courthouse in this small North Carolina town on Tuesday, sending panicked lunchtime shoppers ducking into shops along the normally quiet main drag.

The suspect was caught in the late afternoon after a manhunt that included dozens of armed officers searching the woods along a state highway with a police helicopter flying overhead. A second suspect was still on the loose Tuesday night.

Authorities didn’t offer a motive but believe the victims were targeted.

Both were expected to survive.

The shooting shattered the calm of the sunny

lunch hours along Nashville’s main street, which is flanked by the courthouse on one side and one-story shops across the street.

Witnesses on the strip that includes a flower shop, cafe and furniture store said violence is unusual in the town of about 5,500.

“We heard gunshots, like: Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow! Pow!” said Judy Winstead, who works at a real estate office across from the court. “It was very loud, and when we came out we even smelled gunpowder.”

Nash County Sheriff Dick Jenkins said he believes the gunman targeted his two victims when he opened fire around 11:15 a.m.

The most singular issue being addressed is the issue of clean coal technologies, along with protecting the jobs of the coal industry.

The coal industry comprises and fuels the majority of the state’s economy; so tensions are high for both candidates to ensure protection for these issues.

Tennant has outlined her plan of action in her Coal and Energy Jobs Agenda. In her plan, Tennant says she will “support coal and coal miners by passing the Robert C. Byrd Mine Safety Act, promoting bankruptcy reform to make sure the pensions and benefits miners have earned are protected.”

Tennant has also outlined strategies in her plan to increase manufacturing jobs in wind and solar energy.

In her agenda, Tennant ensures she will “support manufacturing jobs that create parts for wind turbines and solar panels.” With climate change emerging as a major issue across the country, this could potentially benefit Tennant in the race.

West Virginia’s anti-Democratic mood due to President Obama’s anti-coal agenda puts Capito in a good position to take the lead in this election.

Capito holds a B.S. in Zoology from Duke University and a M.Ed. from the University of Virginia. She currently resides in Charleston, W.Va with her husband Charles L. Capito.

Running for the Democratic Party is Natalie Tennant. Tennant is a West Virginian to the core. She graduated from West Virginia University in 1991 with a B.S. in journalism and then proceeded to obtain her Master’s degree from WVU in 2002. She also notably made history as the first female Mountaineer Mascot for the University.

Tennant spent the earlier parts of her career as a television news anchor in cities like Charleston and Clarksburg, W.Va., where she coanchored with her future husband, a military veteran, on “Good Morning West Virginia.”

Tennant has served two terms as West Virginia’s Secretary of State since 2008 but lost the primary election for Governor of the state in 2011.

Nashville Police Chief Thomas Bashore said in the same statement Tuesday night that police were also seeking a second suspect, 36-year-old Demond Levar Morris, also of Rocky Mount. Authorities haven’t said what Morris’s role in the crime may have been.

Bashore said the gunman ran up in front of the courthouse, shot several times and ran away before he got into a light-colored car and escaped.

Authorities say one victim ran inside the Nash County Courthouse and Virginia agenda,” said Amy Graham, Capito’s campaign manager.

Tennant has combated this disadvantage by ensuring in her agenda that she “opposes President Obama and the Environmental Protection Agency’s reckless and unrealistic regulations on coal fire plants that threaten our coal jobs.” However, tying Tennant to Obama’s disappointing poll numbers in West Virginia may prove pivotal for Capito’s campaign.

“Our energy jobs are under assault from President Obama’s administration,” Capito states in her six-point West Virginia Works Plan.

“Government regulations make it harder to use and produce coal and natural gas.

My vision for West Virginia’s economy is anchored on the strong foundation that our energy resources provide.”

Polling currently stands in Capito’s favor. With 53.6 percent in the opinion polls, Capito has a 17.7 percentage point lead on Tennant, who stands at 35.9 percent.

Bashore said the victims, both men, didn’t work at the courthouse.

Officers found four or five bullet casings at the scene.

“It’s senseless to me that anybody would shoot anything let alone in front of the courthouse,” Jenkins said.

At the real estate office nearby, Winstead said she heard the gunshots as she sat at her desk. She ran to the front door and locked it as an uninjured woman screamed on the courthouse steps.

Within minutes, Winstead said “there were deputies all over the place and

Renee Davis said she heard five loud, echoing shots inside her flower shop across the street. A half-dozen people ducked inside her store for cover, she said.

“You knew it was gunshots because it was consecutive,” said Davis, coowner of Madelyn’s Flower Shop.

“I think people in Morgantown are more used to seeing service dogs. Not often, but sometimes we get people who don’t agree with dogs working,” she said. “Also, I went to a concert with Chloe and someone told me I couldn’t go in, but under West Virginia law, the trainer has the right.

Business owners and managers have rights too, but if they tell someone with a legit service dog to leave, that’s not allowed under ADA.” Because of this confusion and conflict, the ADA permits only two questions to be asked of service dog handlers: Is this a service animal, and what is the service animal trained to do? People cannot ask about the handler’s health need for the service animal.

Barthelmess, a Hurricane, W.Va. native, has always been a dog person and said she

hopes to continue working with and fostering dogs like she has done since her freshman year as a biology student at WVU. “I was really interested in taking the class and I fell in love with it,” Barthelmess said.

She has been training dogs for almost four years now.

Barthelmess will keep training Chloe for the next year or two until she is ready to be matched with someone who needs her, at which point Barthelmess will spend several months tweaking Chloe’s training to suit the future handler’s needs. For example, if the handler cannot pay on his or her own at a register, Barthelmess will train Chloe to put a credit card in her mouth and jump up on the counter.

“She’ll be a really good service dog,” Barthelmess said.

plants. On her website, Capito says: “West Virginia coal jobs are under attack by President Obama and the EPA. In the Senate, I’ll stand up for jobs in our state.”

Tennant’s website says much the same: “I will fight President Obama, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and anyone else who tries to undermine the West Virginia coal jobs.”

“Tennant can’t really say anything negative about the coal industry, because it’s just the [state’s] culture,” said Robin Winegard, a registered voter in Kanawha County.

Even so, Winegard is going to vote for Tennant because she said she believes the secretary of state would be more likely to protect the water supply in West Virginia.

“Republicans tend to favor less regulation because they think it tampers with business and job creation.

Democrats tend to believe that regulations benefit the community and environment as a whole,” Winegard said.

Capito’s track record in the House of Representatives echoes that laissez faire stance. While serving in the House for the last 13 years, Capito worked to weaken federal oversight of water safety and management. In July, Capito served as a co-sponsor for the Waters of the United States Regulatory Overreach Protection Act of 2014, with the

main purpose of the act to limit the EPA’s powers to regulate water pollution within the Clean Water Act. House Bill 5078 passed in September; however, according to govtrack.us, the bill has an approximate 40 percent chance of being enacted.

During the Senate campaign this fall, both Capito and Tennant have largely avoided discussing the chemical leak. Yet despite the lack of attention the candidates have given the issue, a poll recently conducted by Citizens Actively Protecting the Environment found that West Virginia residents affected by the chemical spill still care about the issue, Ireland said.

Kanawha County resident Jeremy Hensley was working at three different eateries in Charleston at the time the disaster occurred. The spill forced these restaurants to close and left him without work for a week.

“I had no income coming in,” Hensley said. “And I was never able to get reimbursed because you can’t get reimbursed for tips.”

Hensley said he still isn’t sure who he is going to vote for on Nov. 4.

“They have powerful lobbying forces.”

Even though the decline in coal jobs in the state has more to do with market competition from cheaper natural gas as well as a depleted supply of cheap coal, the coal industry has done a masterful job of pinning the blame on the Obama administration. In 2012, coal companies poured millions of dollars into an advertising campaign that criticized Obama for a “war on coal.” During the 2012 Presidential campaign, energy companies poured $153 million into pro-fossil fuel advertisements that ran nationwide, according to The New York Times.

The resulting perception — that President Obama is taking coal jobs away from West Virginia — appears to be taking precedence over concerns about water quality in the state.

An artist of quite unconventional means to visit WVU

By Chelsea Walker A&E Writer @Dailyathenaeum

Israeli illustrator and educator Hanoch Piven will host a guest artist lecture in the Creative Arts Center Thursday.

Piven’s vibrant and innovative portraits have been featured in magazines and newspapers worldwide, appearing in publications such as “Rolling Stone,” “Newsweek” and “The London Times.”

The noted illustrator dedicates time as an artist, while also creating apps, advertising campaigns and starring on television programs.

“As a young kid, I drew a lot,” Piven said. “I was always the class artist, and it seems like I was always attracted to caricature.”

With a knack for etching, Piven felt he never had a natural drawing talent, forcing him to incorporate other mediums into his designs. In his 20s, he moved from his childhood home in Israel to New York City, to attend The School of Visual Arts. As of now, his creative mind resides in both Barcelona and Tel Aviv.

Through the use of bright colors, Piven feels

his work brings emotion and connects to viewers in a friendly way. A trend in Piven’s art features portraits of famous political leaders and entertainers.

“I feel like this is a natural tendency of mine, of observing the strong, powerful people and trying to laugh at them,” Piven said.

Piven’s lively gallery expresses unconventional self-portraits where facial features are depicted using unanimous objects from rope and cloth, to bananas and eggplants. By forcing individuals to question his use of the random objects used in the illustrations, Piven feels viewers are solving puzzles when connecting with his work.

“Solving a puzzle is a very rewarding experience, and once people decipher my reasons or come up with their own reasons, they feel good,” Piven said.

While remaining a devoted artist, Piven spends time as an educator of creativity, teaching young children the importance of art. With workshops that encourage kids to delve into their imagination, the illustrator encourages using various mediums and outlets for expression.

Faces iMake, is a tool for creating digital collages allowing consumers to express themselves using miscellaneous objects. In Israel, Piven contributes to educational channels like HOP and advertising campaign’s for Haaretz, which he describes as “The New York Times of Israel.” The artist’s hometown is a place in which he understands.

“I have to say Israel has been the place where many major breakthroughs happened for me,” Piven said.

“There is a very lively creative atmosphere there, and people really think in unusual ways and have a lot of energy.”

This Thursday, Piven will expand on his creativity giving a lecture on what could be described as a rather unusual topic.

“My lecture will feature as I like to say ‘All that I have learnt from 25 years of playing with bananas’,” Piven said.

Ways to make your upcoming Halloween party a success Dreama Elliott Correspondent @dailyathenaeum

Are you throwing a party for Halloween this weekend? Here are a few simple ideas.

If you’re going to have candles, get white candles and one red one. Light the red candle and wait until the wax starts to melt. Then, hold it over the white candles, allowing the wax to drip and causing the white candles to look like they’re

covered in blood.

You can also get large plastic syringes and fill them with red Jell-O to have them look like they’re filled with blood. If you’re serving drinks that require ice, get ice trays and place a fake spider in each space for frozen spiders, or even fill the ice cubes with gummy worms for a yummy treat when the ice has melted.

If you are serving bottled or canned beverages, scoop out the guts of a large pumpkin, cut it in half, and

place a bowl inside so you can fill it with ice, giving you a unique way to serve your beverages. If you are a “Breaking Bad” fan, you can make blue rock candy and put the pieces into small baggies for your guests to have.

Red velvet cake balls with white chocolate decorated to look like eye balls are a fun and delicious treat to serve guests. To keep with the sweet theme of Halloween, try serving Day of the Dead cookies; these are sugar cookies in

the shape of skulls, decorated with designs for the Day of the Dead. You could also go with the classic option of ghost-shaped rice krispy treats.

For entertainment, create a Halloween Feel Box. To make a feel box, you must first get a box that works the best for your convenience, such as a tissue box, cereal box or a shoe box. Cut a hole in the box big enough for a hand to fit but small enough that you can’t look inside to see what the items inside are.

The items for the inside of the box could be items such as: dried apricots, peeled grapes, fuzzy pipe cleaners, baby carrots, steamed cauliflower, popcorn kernels, candy corn, peeled tomatoes, cooked noodles, dried pasta, pudding, wet tortillas, potato chips, canned peaches and various other items that you might have in your home. The object of the game is pretty simple.

You stick your hand into the box and try to guess what the items are. Whoever guesses the most items cor-

rect gets some kind of prize.

Another fun Halloween game that doesn’t require you to spend any money is Pass It on Ghost Story. The object of this game is for guests to gather in a circle, turn off or dim the lights, and take a turns adding on to the original ghost story.

This game can be as long or a short as you and your guests desire. It’s a great way for everyone to get in touch with their inner child all over again. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Marvel releases list of upcoming superhero films through 2019 LOS ANGELES (AP) — “Doctor Strange,” “Black Panther,” “Captain Marvel” and the “Inhumans” are joining the Marvel cinematic universe.

The studio unveiled the titles and release dates of its upcoming superhero films through 2019 during a Tuesday event in Hollywood. The schedule includes a mix of sequels featuring familiar faces and originals focused on Marvel characters that have yet to be introduced on the big screen.

The slate includes “Captain America: Civil War” and “Doctor Strange” in 2016; “Guardians of the Galaxy 2,” “Thor: Ragnarok” and “Black Panther” in 2017; “The Avengers: Infinity War - Part I,” “Captain Marvel” and “Inhumans” in 2018; and “The Avengers: Infinity War - Part II” in 2019.

The movies join next year’s “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” and “Ant-Man.”

“When we have information we want to reveal, we reveal it,” Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige told fans and members of the media on stage at the El Capitan Theatre. “Sometimes that’s in a press release, sometimes that’s in San Diego Comic-Con - if everything comes together well - and sometimes that’s on a random Tuesday at 11 a.m. in the morning.”

At the end of the event, “Get On Up” star Chadwick Boseman was announced as the actor who will portray Black Panther. He joined “Iron Man” and “Captain America” stars Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans on stage for the reveal.

“I’m blessed to be part of this Marvel universe,” Boseman said. “I look forward to making magic together.”

A play with some brains This Halloweekend, get your spooky fill by visiting the Monongalia Arts Center to see the MACplayers’ production of “Zombie Texts from the Future” by Theodore Webb, a Morgantown author. This “zany, apocalyptic comedy-mystery” is directed by Mara Monaghan and stars Donnelle Bohnke, Derek Brown, Sadie Crow, Tracy Lynch and Josh Rocchi.

In the show, college student and statistics genius Rich Nash (Derek Brown) receives random “zombie” texts. The messages are from an unknown number and only contain a single word, such as “sushi” or “ketchup”.

Even more bizarrely, the food from the text magically appears sometime soon after. Rich’s obsession over the source of these mysterious texts leads to unruly conflicts and misunderstandings with his roommate Chris Weathers (Josh Rocchi) and girlfriend Sarah Jenkins (Sadie Crow).

Zombies have been slowly creeping their way to the forefront of popu-

larity, largely due to shows and movies like “The Walking Dead” and “World War Z.” But, this is no ordinary zombie plot. The aspect of the futuristic text messages makes this stand out from all other zombie storylines. It is because of this that “Zombie Texts from the Future” will undoubtedly spark interest.

This one-of-a-kind show will include cued audience participation-socialization and support from WVU Swing Dance. Dress up in your best zombie attire to receive a complimentary beverage. There will also be a special “Best Costume” contest for all costume styles, undead or otherwise, Oct. 31.

This comedy is written toward a teenage or adult audience, for ages 13 and older with parental guidance, as suggested by the author.

Performances will be 8 p.m. Oct. 29 - Nov. 1 in the MAC’s Tanner Theatre. Tickets are $10 and may be purchased online at http://monartscenter.com.

and Iron Man against each other. In the comics, Black Panther is the leader of the fictional African nation of Wakanda who becomes a member of The Avengers.

“He is definitively a big part of `Civil War,’” Feige said. “We will see him for the first time in `Civil War’ in costume.”

“Black Panther” and “Captain Marvel” will mark the studio’s first films centered on black and female characters from Marvel comics. Feige said the bigscreen iteration of the Captain Marvel character will be Carol Danvers, a U.S. Air Force officer whose adventures take her to space in the comics.

No casting announcements were made for “Captain Marvel,” the sorcerycentric “Doctor Strange” or “Inhumans,” which is about a race of superbeings.

The Marvel films represent an important chunk of the Walt Disney Co.’s portfolio. Feige said the first 10 Marvel films, which kicked off in 2008 with “Iron Man” and “The Incredible Hulk,” have made over $7 billion.

During a question-andanswer session with the media following the event, Feige defended the studio’s decision not to focus films specifically on the characters of Black Widow and

Hulk, who are portrayed

by Scarlett Johansson and Mark Ruffalo in “The Avengers.”

“It’s about bringing new characters to the screen,” Feige said. “Black Widow couldn’t be more important than as an Avenger herself, and like Hulk, `The Avengers’ films will be the films where they play a primary role.”

Tuesday’s unveiling of the so-called “phase three” of Marvel’s film schedule comes two weeks after Warner Bros. announced a slate of 10 films based on DC Comics characters, including “The Flash,” “Aquaman,” “Cyborg,” “Wonder Woman” and “Shazam.”

The full slate of upcoming Marvel films: - May 1, 2015: “The Avengers: Age of Ultron.”

- July 17, 2015: “Ant-Man.” - May 6, 2016: “Captain America: Civil War.” - Nov. 4, 2016: “Doctor Strange.”

Editorial

It’s time to talk about protection As the end of October approaches, so does WELLWVU’s loveWELL month.

All month long the organization has been promoting healthy mental and physical relationships among college students.

LoveWELL, in part, focuses on sexual health and practicing safe sex with your partner. They offer programs such as the Condom Caravan which visits the Mountainlair and dorms around campus.

Wellness Coordinators in the dorms also stress the message and prepare programs for residence.

Just because October is ending, doesn’t mean we should stop thinking about sexual health. It is important for students to take care of themselves in every way.

A recent video posted

by Hillary Lauren Levine, a BuzzFeed video producer,

on BuzzFeed entitled “Let’s Actually Talk About Birth Control” begs the question of high school students, “What is birth control?”

Each of the students struggle with the question and were unable to give a clear definition.

Then the same question is asked of those employed at

BuzzFeed. Again, we see the same response.

The video goes on to have doctors explain the different types of female birth control, and why a male equivalent would be problematic.

If you haven’t seen the video and have any confusion at all about birth con-

thoughtsofccampe.blogspot.com

trol, check it out. The main take away message from the video is to talk about birth control.

So let’s talk.

There are two types of birth control: Barrier and hormonal. Barrier include methods such as condoms and diaphragms, while hormonal methods are things

like the pill, patch or shot.

So what is the best way to find out what is right for you? Ask. Talk to your health care provider about your lifestyle, medical history and daily routine. Together, you can decide the best and safest method for you.

Keep in mind that hormonal birth control is used for more than just preventing pregnancy. It can help regulate a woman’s monthly period, ease cramping and even help with acne.

West Virginia University student have plenty of options for obtaining birth control. Student Health Services offers both men and women’s health services.

These include gynecological services such as Pap smears, access to many different forms of contraception, STI testing, pregnancy tests and emergency

contraception.

For men, WELLWVU’s website offers information on testicular exams and what to do if something is found. They also recommend Gardasil, the vaccination for HPV, for men 25 and under.

Students can also purchase condoms at any local grocery store, gas station or drug store. For those who are residents in the dorms, it is very likely your Resident Assitant has some on hand for you to take. Remember, condoms are the only way to prevent the spread of STIs. No matter how you do so, protect yourself. Be prepared and be willing to talk with not just health professionals, but also with your partner. The only way to learn the answers is to ask the questions. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Commentary

Be cautious when supporting breast cancer awareness emily torbett columnist @dailyathenaeum

In addition to all the pumpkins and ghosts you’ve been seeing lately, you also may have noticed a great deal of pink ribbons. As you probably know, October is not only the month of Halloween, but also Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It seems that every athlete is sporting a pink jersey, every product you buy in the grocery store has a pink label and every other commercial urges you to buy something in support of breast cancer awareness.

Supporting the cause of breast cancer awareness certainly seems like a good idea.

After all, the disease is quite prevalent, and its effects can be devastating. About 1 in 8 women in the United States, just under 12 percent, will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of their lifetime. Approximately 40,000 women in the United States

will die from the disease this year alone.

So many of us know someone personally affected by breast cancer be it a sister, a mother or a grandmother. It is only natural that we would want to do something to help the victims. However, I urge you to ask yourself, “Who are these pink ribbons helping and how?”

In decades past, talking about breast cancer in public may have been considered taboo. There very well may have been women who didn’t understand the importance of yearly mammograms and preventative health care. However, in this day and age, it is nearly impossible to find someone who is “unaware” of the existence of breast cancer.

It certainly isn’t a bad thing that we’ve made breast cancer an open discussion and we show suffering women we support them in their fight. However, buying a pink ribbon edition yogurt

or wearing a “Save Second Base” T-shirt is unlikely to do much to help the large number of women affected by the devastating disease.

Companies who make pink labels and breast cancer awareness products usually do donate something to charity. However, the percentage of proceeds donated is typically minimal and it is typically done so with ulterior motives.

When Kentucky Fried Chicken announced its “Buckets For The Cure” campaign, it promised to donate 50 cents to the Susan G. Komen Foundation for every pink bucket of chicken they sold. The Komen Foundation’s goal was to raise 8.5 million dollars from this program.

With KFC raking in over $500 million annually, certainly it could afford to donate this money privately.

So why didn’t they? Instead of simply donating money to the foundation, KFC chose to exploit the cause of breast

cancer in order to drive up its profits and improve its brand image.

You may be thinking, “Even if they are exploiting the cause, as long as the money gets donated does it really matter if these companies make some money on the side?” The truth is, yes, it does matter. Pink products often bring about unintended consequences.

Studies show that when you purchase such products, you are less likely to donate actual money to the cause.

This is likely due to consumers feeling like they’ve “done their part” to help. The result is obvious: Less money being donated to those who need it the most.

The time has come to show companies that using breast cancer awareness for their own profit is unacceptable. While support of those suffering is certainly necessary, we need to focus our attention from awareness to action.

This doesn’t necessar-

causemarketing.com

ily mean blindly giving out money. When it comes to charitable donations of any kind, you are always allowed to ask questions about where exactly your money is going and how it will help those in need. Instead of simply buying pink label prod-

ucts and assuming some of your money will go to a good cause, do a little research and donate money directly to organizations working to help those affected by breast cancer. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

The numbers of dating: Different aspects of age gaps in relationships

relationshipchef.net

Francine fluetsch uc santa cruz

Age is just a number right? The older you get, the less age matters, but for the late high school-college crowd, age can definitely make or break a relationship.

This isn’t to discourage you from dating someone older/younger than yourself, these are just a few things to keep in mind.

High schoolers: If your significant other is still in high school when you go off to college, you need to realize that you will be experiencing a whole new world, while they are still in the familiar.

This may cause problems since they aren’t going to understand why you can’t come home every weekend since you want to hang out with your new friends or at-

DA

tend some parties to make some of those said friends.

Especially if they aren’t good with change, they will want things to be as familiar as possible, while you want to experience college. This isn’t to say that you shouldn’t stay with your significant other if they are still in high school, it’s just to suggest that this type of situation can be hard if you don’t have open communication.

You still want to go home and see them, but you also want the full college experience, so they will have to accept that. They will also have to realize that college work is much harder than high school, so you might have less time on your hands to call 24/7.

Even within the first year of college, a lot of people mature drastically, so you’ll want to make sure that your high schooler is also pretty mature.

Maturity: Speaking of maturity levels, this is one of the main reasons people do date someone older than them. This isn’t to say that younger people can’t be mature, but you can be certain that you will find a more mature group of people when you start looking in the juniors and seniors in college and even up to the grad students.

They’ve had their partying days, and while they still enjoy it, they are buckling down and focusing on school so they can get their degrees and get out.

If you are younger and having a hard time finding someone on your maturity level, older is probably the way to go.

Here’s what BuzzFeed has to say about dating someone older.

Drinking age: This is a big one for a lot of couples. If you are 21 or

over and are dating someone younger, you have to ask yourself if the fact that they can’t get into the bars and clubs you want to go to is going to be a big pain or not. For people that are more social drinkers, it’s probably not a big deal.

If, on the other hand, your favorite thing to do on a Friday night is go to a bar and get wasted, you probably don’t want to date someone younger.

If you are going to date someone that can’t legally drink, make sure to not make them feel bad about it. If you’re always like “aww man I wish we could go there, but you’re too young” it will constantly make them feel bad about themselves that they are holding you back.

Sure, you can still go to the bar once in a while with your buddies, but make sure that your S.O. doesn’t feel left out and you still

make plenty of time for them with things they can actually go to.

Stages in life: There is also the matter of what age means for our age group.

Sure you wouldn’t think a 19 year old and a 24 year old are that far apart, but the 19 year old is still probably a sophomore, and therefore is still getting into the swing of college and wants to have a good time, whereas the 24 year old is done/close to being done with school and may be at that point where they are ready to move in with their S.O. and do grown-upy things like that.

This of course will vary from person to person. I mean, I know some people in the 25 age range who are way more immature than some of my friends who are 18, but you’ll have to be the judge of what the person you are dating might want.

People will talk:

You shouldn’t care what people think, but it may be important to mention since you will have to deal with it. If you are dating a freshman in college and you are a grad student, chances are you may get some crap from your friends and family, or definitely some jokes thrown your way about how you like them young or something like that.

If you really like the person, then definitely don’t let this discourage you, just know that remarks will be said. You’ll just have to find some good comebacks and not let it get to you.

As with all these points, it’s going to vary from person to person. It will get better the older the two of you get, because once you are out of the college stages and starting your life, age really will be just a number.

Until then, you will have some obstacles, but if it’s worth it, go for it!

Fans of Pigeons Playing Ping Pong pack the walls of 123 Pleasant Street in March.

BY Jillian Clemente A&E Writer @dailyathenaeum

One of B.F. Skinner’s operant conditioning experiments trained pigeons to play ping pong with each other.

Two freshman boys at the University of Maryland both took a psychology 101 class and learned about Skinner’s experiment. These two men, guitarist Jeremy Schon and vocalist Greg Ormont, loved the experiment so much they named a band after it.

“We started as acoustic duo called ‘Pigeons Playing Ping Pong,’ and we did open mic shows, coffee houses, etc.,” Schon said. “We had a lot of fun playing them.”

After a few years of sticking to a two-person band, Schon recruited high school pal Dan Schwartz for the drums and history class buddy Ben Carrey as a bassist and vocalist.

“We eventually started a full band sound and it evolved from there,” Schon said.

And that new band sound is described as a “high-energy psychedelic funk,” according to Schon.

Right after college graduation, the four got regular jobs.

“About three years ago, we took (the band on) full time and never looked back,”

Schon said. “It’s always been a dream for us to do what we’re doing now and it’s amazing.”

As for Schon, the best part about being in a band is performing.

“Our live shows are very involved and very interactive.

We like to go back and forth with the fans (since) the audience is very important to us,” Schon said.

PPPP is heavy on spontaneity as well. The band creates a completely unique setlist each night.

“We try to keep it as fresh as possible - you’ll never see the same show twice,” Schon said.

One of the band’s favorite shows was over the summer at the Peach Festival where PPPP played with bands like the Allman Brothers Band and Lotus.

“It was a dream come true to be playing with those artists that we worship, that we look up to,” Schon said.

As for the amount of shows, the band tries to get out Wednesday through Sunday. Since they’re located in Baltimore, they don’t have to drive too far to get to gigs.

“We’re pretty much always on the road, with Monday and Tuesday off at home,” Schon said.

Halloween Tutorial

How to make creepy eyeball nails

Caitlin Worrell/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

First, paint your nails a solid shade of opaque white. A great polish option is Sally Hansen’s Xtreme Wear in ‘White On.’ Once the base coat has dried, make a medium sized dot in the center of your nail with the tip of your brush. You can use various colors for this part. Then, with a toothpick, place a small black dot over the colored circle. Add a tiny dot of white to the pupil to make your eye look even more realistic.

Pigeons Playing Ping Pong returns

1) “Halloween” (1978) Directed by John Carpenter and starring Jamie Lee Curtin, “Halloween” is the classic option for lovers of horror. It has all the right elements such as a creepy theme song, a masked murderer, a hot damsel in distress, nudity and a camera point-of-view that makes it feel like something is about to pounce at every turn.

“Halloween is so successful because it scares without showing too much and builds suspense through suggestion.

2) “The Conjuring” (2012) Directed by James Wan, “The Conjuring” also successfully scares audiences without bloodshed or even death. The only being to die in the movie is the family’s dog. Not only is it perfectly horrific, but it also has an interesting plot, an authentic set and costumes, and believable actors. Based on a true story, I saw “The Conjuring” at a drive-in movie theater for the ultimate horror experience.

3) Dracula (1931) Entranced by Tod Browning’s direction and Bela Lugosi’s hypnotic stare, this movie set the precedent for what we expect from vampires today.

Lugosi is the original vampiric icon.

4) “Friday the 13th” (1980) It is the quintessential twist with the surprise ending and it’s the gold standard when it comes to teenagers camping out, having a good time. It has it all: sex, violence, mystery and suspense. The story outline is a young Jason Voorhees, who drowned as a boy at Camp Crystal Lake due to the negligence of the camp staff. Decades later, the lake is rumored to be “cursed” and is the setting for the classic horror film, “Friday the 13th.”

5) “The Nightmare Before Christmas” (1993) Directed by Tim Burton, this animated picture is perfect for audiences of all ages. Twice a year, I sit down to watch this childhood film for its underlying themes, juxtaposition through color and overall spooky vibe. Also, who doesn’t love Jack and Sally?

6) “The Exorcist” (1973) This movie was one of the first to combine religion and focus on possession. In addition to destroying pure innocence, the film used real priests and pea soup.

7) “The Silence of the Lambs” (1991) This thriller brings psychotic to a whole new level.

It appeals to fears surrounding taboo subjects such as cannibalism, crossdressing and murder. The

film features stunning performances from Jodi Foster and Anthony Hopkins.

8)“The Strangers” (2008) What makes “The Strangers” stand out is the creative use of subtle imagery. Where other slasher films rely on graphic inyour-face violence and gore, “The Strangers” takes an alternate route. The killers haunt the background in the first part of the film, always staying just outside of the characters’ peripheral. The result is pervasive feeling creepiness and paranoia that gets better with each viewing. Perhaps the most chilling scene of the movie is one killer’s answer at the end of the film.

“Why are you doing this to us,” a broken and sobbing character asks. “Because you were home,” the killer replies.

9) “A Nightmare on Elm Street” (1984) Besides being the first film to snatch up a young Johnny Depp, “A Nightmare on Elm Street” is a good movie because the villain is inside the minds of the sleeping. The nightmare is real.

10) “The Shining” (1980) This film is an exercise in what it is like to lose your mind because of isolation.

If the term “red rum” means nothing to you, you should watch this right now. It’s guaranteed to get your heart going.

11) “Saw” (2004) This movie is completely in your face. If you have a weak stomach, I do not recommend watching this.

However, if you take delight in gruesome visuals, this is the movie for you.

My favorite components of the movie are the facts that Jigsaw, the mastermind, hasn’t actually committed a crime and the tasks are designed to test people’s wills to live.

12) “The Descent” (2005) Tight spaces in caves, unknown creatures, weak bonds of trust and no way out - how can they survive?

13) “Student Bodies” (1981) If you are in the mood for something funny this Halloween, this is the perfect mix of satire, social comment and slapstick horror.

At one point in the film, the murderer steps on gum as he ascends the stairs and says, “I’m gonna kill the kid with the gum.” Then, with an aresenal of eapons available, he chooses a paperclip.

Honorable Mentions: “Scream,” “Maniac,” “My Soul to Keep,” “Hocus Pocus,” “Halloweentown,” “It,” “Grave Encounters 2,” “Paranormal Activity” and “The Ring.”

WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen runs onto the field during the Texas Tech game earlier this season.

Holgorsen embracing fourth top-10 matchup of season, has faith in No. 20 WVU against No. 10 TCU by anthony pecoraro associate sports editor @pecorarowvunews

As No. 20 West Virginia continues to climb the rankings and earn the respect of more and more throughout the nation, head coach Dana Holgorsen continues to be focused on not being satisfied yet and having his squad go into each day of the season with the same mentality: To win.

During Holgorsen’s weekly press conference Tuesday, the fourth-year Mountaineer (6-2, 4-1

Big 12) head coach talked about the No. 10 TCU Horned Frogs (6-1, 3-1 Big 12), who are coming off an 82-27 victory over Texas Tech. They are coming to Morgantown Saturday for what is being viewed as the marquee matchup of Week 11, as ESPN’s College GameDay will also be invading Morgantown this weekend.

With WVU being bowl eligible after its victory against Oklahoma State this past Saturday, Holgorsen said perhaps the biggest key to being in contention to win Sat-

urday’s game will come down to whether the Mountaineers can contain the Horned Frogs’ offense and junior quarterback Trevone Boykin, who posted 433 passing yards and seven touchdowns against a struggling Red Raider team this past Saturday.

“He (Boykin) is the most improved player in college football,” Holgorsen said.

“He is playing well (and) I thought he was good two years ago as a true freshman (when) he came out here and beat us in overtime.”

Holgorsen said putting 82 points up on any team, however, is not just an offensive matter, but an entire team effort – something Holgorsen understands will have his entire team’s hands full come game time.

“You don’t score 82 points just by being good on offense,” he said. “Their defense does a great job of getting them the ball back (and) their special teams are solid. Obviously, they’re playing well on offense, but they’re playing well as a team. They’re confident as a team, which

puts them in position to be able to win.”

As the Mountaineers enter their ninth game of the season with TCU being their fourth opponent ranked in the top 10, Holgorsen said the only thing you can and have to do is be prepared and never let a day go to waste.

“You have to be able to have a lot of the depth, you have to be able to have a lot of weapons to be able to continue to line up and practice and get your work in,” he said. “You (have) to have leaders that understand that each and every

week has to be important.”

Throughout the Mountaineers’ and Horned Frogs’ first two years in the Big 12 since both joining in 2012, they have posted identical records each season – 7-6 in 2012 and 4-8 in 2013. With the national spotlight on both of these teams this week, it’s easy to see how both teams have come a long way since the end of 2013.

Kickoff between the Mountaineers and Horned Frogs is set for 3:30 p.m.

Much riding for West Virginia entering Saturday by dillon durst sports writer @dailyathenaeum

There might not be a more important Big 12 matchup this season than when No. 20 West Virginia hosts No. 10 TCU Saturday.

Heading into Week 11, it’s safe to say Texas, Texas Tech, Iowa State and Kansas have been eliminated from conference title contention.

Leaving Kansas State, West Virginia, Baylor, TCU, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma as the remaining contenders.

No single team has an

easy path remaining to the title, however, with a win over TCU Saturday, West Virginia may have a slight edge over the rest.

If the Mountaineers handle business Saturday, they will likely remain in second place behind No. 11 Kansas State, who is a 14-point favorite this week at home against an ailing Oklahoma State team.

With a loss, TCU would likely remain at No. 4 in the conference, but would likely fall into a tie with Oklahoma at 3-2, who is a 16-point favorite at Iowa State this

weekend. The Horned Frogs own the tiebreaker over the Sooners.

West Virginia would own the tiebreaker over one-loss Baylor, but would need to win out in order to avoid falling back into a two-loss tie.

A road trip to Texas (3-5, 2-3 Big 12) next weekend, followed by a massive Thursday night home game against Kansas State, (6-1, 4-0 Big 12) and a trip to Iowa State (2-5, 0-4 Big 12) would be all that remains on the Mountaineers’ schedule, setting them up nicely for a conference title bid.

FRIDAY, OCT. 31 • 7 P.M.

DICK DLESK STADIUM

However, a TCU win Saturday would likely send West Virginia down to No. 4 or No. 5 in the Big 12, making the Mountaineers’ Nov. 20 matchup against Kansas State a must-win situation.

Oklahoma, who is 2-2 in the conference and sits at No. 6, owns the tiebreaker over West Virginia, as well.

Kansas State is ultimately in the driver’s seat in the Big 12 and is playing great football under legendary head coach Bill Snyder. Although the Wildcats must travel to TCU Nov. 8 and Baylor Dec. 6 to close out the regular

season, Snyder’s squad will have a chance to win both of those games.

Once the dust settles on Mountaineer Field Saturday evening, the Big 12 race will still be wide open, regardless of the score. If there’s anything this conference has proven this year, it’s that all the teams in the conference’s upper tier are capable of beating each other any given day.

Although it no longer plays a conference title game, this year’s Big 12 title race has widely shaped up to be as good as the Pac 12 and

SEC races so far.

With Morgantown hosting ESPN’s College GameDay for the first time since 2011, when West Virginia won the Big East Conference and the Orange Bowl, the Mountaineers will have the advantage of a rowdy, sell-out crowd behind them Saturday afternoon.

The Big 12 title inevitably runs through Morgantown, and the first important test comes in the form of a tough, well coached Horned Frogs squad. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

WVU taking different approach entering season

FILE PHOTO

Junior guard Bria Holmes awaits a free throw last season.

by david statman sports writer @dailyathenaeum

Last year is last year for a reason.

Yes, the West Virginia Mountaineers women’s basketball team finished 30-5. Yes, they won their first-ever Big 12 regular season title. Yes, they ended up with a two seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Yes, they finished the season ranked seventh in the NCAA rankings.

But, again, that was last year. And with the 201415 season approaching, what’s on head coach Mike Carey’s mind is how

to make sure seven new faces are ready to go.

“We are really starting over with a lot of new players,” Carey said. “We’re having to break down more and take more time and all that. I really don’t see us having much in the start of the season as we normally do. I’m the type of person, if we are not doing it well, we’re not going to keep adding.”

Carey has won over 250 games as the West Virginia head coach. He’s been at the job for 13 years, and reached the NCAA Tournament eight times – although his teams have never gotten past the sec-

ond round. Such was the fate of last year’s Mountaineer squad, a talented unit that at different points of the season reeled off win streaks of 12 and 13, but fell to LSU in the second round of NCAAs. Last year’s team heavily relied upon a quartet of seniors – Asya Bussie, Taylor Palmer, Christal Caldwell and Jess Harlee – and to fill the holes left by their departures, Carey and the Mountaineers were very active in bringing in junior college transfers.

Forward Kayla Montgomery and guard Jessica Morton have been brought

in from Gulf Coast State College in Florida, along with Swedish native Abigail Asoro, who comes to Morgantown from Iowa Western Community College. In addition, Bre McDonald, a transfer from Georgia Tech who sat out last season in compliance with NCAA transfer rules, will be eligible to take the court as a Mountaineer for the first time.

Along with freshmen Teana Muldrow, Dominique Simpson and Tyara Warren, that’s seven players who will play their first games as Mountaineers this season. In response, Carey has moved practices

to the WVU Coliseum, to get his newcomers better acclimated to their new surroundings.

“We have so many new players that have never played here,” Carey said.

“The surroundings and the baskets are different.

We need to get in here early in the season as much as we can.”

So perhaps Carey will give his team a “Hoosiers” moment – remember, when Norman Dale has the team go out and measure the baskets before the big state championship game? Nerves about the Mountaineers’ inexperience might be buoyed

by the fact that the team returns some important veterans, including unanimous All-Big 12 First Team selection Bria Holmes and three seniors.

Still, it’s inevitable that these newcomers will play a big part in shaping West Virginia’s direction this year and in the years to come. And when they’re called upon, Carey will have to hope they’re up for the challenge.

The Mountaineers will play their annual Haunted Hoops exhibition game at 7 p.m. Friday against Wheeling Jesuit at home. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Mountaineers blank Penn, earn third-straight win by ryan minnigh sports writer @dailyathenaeum

The West Virginia men’s soccer team is still rolling.

The Mountaineers traveled to Philadelphia to take on Penn last night and left with a 1-0 win over the Quakers.

The win moves the Mountaineers to 9-6-1 on the season. It also marks their third straight victory.

Mike Desiderio scored his second goal of the season early in the first half.

Andy Bevin added his eighth assist of the season, bringing him to 26 points

SPECIAL NOTICES

on the year.

The Mountaineers only shot the ball three times on the evening, but the header from Desiderio was enough to seal the win.

Penn got off six shots but only one on goal, and WVU goalkeeper Lee Johnston saved it.

West Virginia started the scoring early in the first half and would not surrender the lead the rest of the game.

After each team had chances on corner kicks, a Penn foul left the Mountaineers with a free kick opportunity. Bevin lined up the kick and sent it into

the box where Desiderio would head the ball in.

The Mountaineers held a 1-0 lead in the eighth minute of the game.

“We’ve worked on set pieces quite a bit,” said head coach Marlon LeBlanc in a release. “We’ve had a lot of them this season that we haven’t quite executed. It was fantastic service by Andy and a great run by Mike.”

Penn responded with two shots within the next eight minutes, but both missed the net. One shot went high over the crossbar and one sailed wide of the net.

After not getting a shot for more than 20 minutes, a corner kick from Bevin set Jamie Merriam for a shot, but it went wide of the goal.

Penn mustered the only other shot opportunity in an otherwise quiet first half from both teams.

The Mountaineers held their 1-0 lead at the half.

As the second half started, the Mountaineers had a chance from Jack Elliot but the attempt was blocked.

Penn had its attempts in the second half as well, but could not get on the board.

Forrest Clancy nearly tied the game with a shot, but

Johnston came up with a save to preserve the lead.

West Virginia was content to hold the lead in the second half and only registered one shot in the second half.

Penn had two more opportunities in the last 15 minutes, but the Quakers’ opportunities fell short again and the Mountaineers captured their thirdstraight victory.

“We’ve had to become more of a resilient squad,” LeBlanc said. “We’ve lost some guys to injury and we’ve asked some guys to step up and play bigger roles and bigger parts. I

think they’ve done that. As the year has gone on, we have settled in to our team and settled in to our style.”

West Virginia will play its final home game Saturday at noon against MAC rival Buffalo at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium.

VOLLEYBALL

Mountaineers travel to take on TCU tonight

NICK HOLSTEIN/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

WVU setter Lamprini Konstantinidou serves during a match earlier this season.

by nicole Curtin sports writer @dailyathenaeum

The West Virginia University volleyball team is back in Texas tonight for a rematch against the Texas Christian University Horned Frogs.

As of now, the Mountaineers have faced each team in the Big 12 and have already put down one win against TCU, which they took in five sets at home.

WVU is 13-9 overall, 3-5 in the Big 12, while TCU sits at 12-10, 2-6.

While there are sev-

eral girls on the team who played high school volleyball in Texas such as Caleah Wells, Jordan Anderson and Brittany Sample, TCU is the home of coach Jill Kramer, who played there from 1996-99.

Kramer is the all-time kills leader for the Horned Frogs and she is in the top10 for several categories of the TCU volleyball record books.

This is the third time this year the Mountaineers have traveled to the Lone Star state for a Big 12 matchup and they are currently 2-0 while playing

207 Willey Street Morgantown WV 26505 304-291-6240

there. At Texas Tech in September, West Virginia took a 3-1 win and last week at Baylor, the Mountaineers did the same thing.

Coming out of a tough loss against Kansas State this past weekend, Kramer said they prepared for TCU based off of that game.

“They came out with a win, but it was close and we had some missed opportunities to shut it out,” Kramer said. “Some ball handling, things like that, but there are some things we need to sure up and keep getting better at. Defending the right side at-

tack and the slide, our serve and pass and continuing to work on our offensive rhythm.”

In their previous matchup against TCU, Anderson hit a careerbest 36 kills, hitting for a .516 clip, and the Mountaineers hit for .310 as a team. Anderson is continuing to lead the conference and the Mountaineers with kills totaling 359 this season, holding second place in program history for single-season kills by a sophomore.

The Horned Frogs are on a six-game losing streak,

and dropped matches to West Virginia, K-State, Kansas and Texas during the strak.

Leading TCU is sophomore outside hitter Ashley Smith with 213 kills this season and senior opposite Stephanie Holland with 209 is right behind her.

Smith is hitting 2.88 kills per set, finishing in the double digits for kills in 11 games this season. Holland averages 2.71 kills per set and defensively has been supporting the Frogs with 39 total blocks, the third most on the team.

The last time the Moun-

taineers faced TCU, Holland had a career day with 22 kills and 14 digs, her first double-double and a career high for digs.

While TCU holds the series 4-2, the two wins from the WVU side of the net were the last two times the teams met. The Horned Frogs are 9-2 at home this season, which could give them a better home court advantage, but two of their six losses were at home as well.

The match will begin at 7:30 p.m. tonight. dasports@mail.wvu.edu
