We must use our resources wisely, we must work together across boundaries and disciplines, and we must make our mark on the national and world stage.”

During the last four years, Clements said enrollment grew by four percent to 32,595. He said he, along with every faculty member, firmly believes every single one of those students matter.

A large portion of Cle-

ments’ address centered on the difficulties currently facing the U.S., issues that stem from the national debt and innovations crises.

“As documented in numerous studies, we are facing an urgent national crisis,” he said. “Many would call it an innovation deficit, and it’s growing. The United States has fallen to 16th among developed countries for the percentage of young adults who hold a college degree.”

Clements pledged his commitment to ensuring the students of WVU receive quality academic experiences, no matter the challenges the University may encounter.

Despite state budget cuts, Clements said WVU has maintained quality academic research and public service programs, while still managing to provide a positive overall student experience.

West Virginia University President, James P. Clements, delivered his fifth State of the University address Monday to the Faculty Assembly and community members at the Erickson Alumni Center.

President Clements related the current state of the University and its progress over the course of the last year to the WVU solar decathlon team currently competing in a competition in California. The team is working to rebuild an environmentally friendly log home they originally built on the Evansdale Campus.

“In some ways the solar decathlon project represents our state of the University in 2013,” Clements said. “Under very challenging circumstances we must work together to uphold and build upon our land

MyVoice Inc., the creators of the iPod application TalkRocket Go, is making life easier for students with speech disabilities across the globe.

The College Life Pack, a new, free add-on to the TalkRocket Go app, was released Aug. 27. It was specifically developed by MyVoice and the University of Toronto Scarborough to highlight vocabulary common on college campuses.

The main function of TalkRocket Go is text-tospeech and vocabulary packs that help disabled individuals of all ages develop their communication skills.

The College Life Pack takes that idea a step further by introducing college-specific vocabulary and images related to the registrar’s office, disability services, questions or comments in lectures and other general aspects life on campus.

“TalkRocket Go helps people with a diverse range of communication challenges,” said Alex Levy, CEO and lead designer at MyVoice. “Today, it’s used by people with autism, cerebral palsy and traumatic

brain injury. It has even been occasionally used by people with hearing challenges, particularly those who struggle to be understood because of how their hearing loss affects their speech.

“For college students with disabilities, the (app) will give them easier access to vocabulary about courses, campus services and social life. This could make a difference for their academic and social success, which is so important given that students with disabilities are much less likely to finish college than others.”

Elizabeth Campbell of Westover, W.Va., is the mother of a child with hearing loss who is aided only by hearing aids.

“My son is very verbal and can be understood when he speaks, but that does not mean he is not missing out on opportunities,” Campbell said. “His disability gives him a disadvantage educationally and socially.”

According to the 2011 U.S. census, students who have disabilities are twice as likely to dropout of from high school, while those who do graduate are half as likely to continue their

A group of online s p o r t s ma na g e m e nt graduate students at West Virginia University started their own charity to raise money and promote awareness about coal miners around the state.

The graduate sports marketing class project is selling “Miners Matter” wristbands to people who want to show support for the coal mining profession.

The class consists of students from across the country, many of whom had never set foot in West Virginia prior to their two-week conference.

“We came on campus two weeks in July to get about four of our classes out of the way,” said Felecia Mulkey, a graduate student in the sports marketing class.

“It was interesting, because we are from all over the country, and most of us did not do our undergraduate at WVU, so it was our first trip to Morgantown.”

Their time in Morgantown was eye-opening to many of the students, and they quickly realized the importance of coal to the state.

“We learned pretty quickly about America’s real source of energy and the coal mining profession when we were taken there,” Mulkey said. “We were told that we had to create a project, and it was going to go to charity. It was a no-brainer for us to go with anything that would benefit the miners and their families.”

While in Morgantown,

the class learned 4,000 miners had been laid off in southern West Virginia as result of budget cuts.

The group then contacted Friends of Coal, which put them in touch with Remember the Miners, the charity the proceeds will benefit.

“It just seemed like it was just a point of pride with everyone in West Virginia; it’s such a way of life there,” Mulkey said. “I’m from Atlanta, and coal mining wasn’t something I realized was such a big part of what we do every day. I think we all felt immediately you become a Mountaineer when you get there.

For me to get to campus and immediately identify with West Virginia, it was pretty quick you realize that everybody has their pride.”

The wristband is designed to show supp or t for b oth the Mountaineers and the miners in West Virginia.

“We have some local students in the program. Mining is such a big thing, and we decided to go that route, because we can use the science of sports because West Virginia doesn’t have professional teams, so everyone in West Virginia is really huge in college football,” said Brian Taylor, a student in the class. “We wanted to use that sports background for people to show their love.”

Wristbands can be purchased for $2 at h t t p : / / m i n e r s m a t t e r. com, or at upcoming basketball and football games. danewsroom@mail.wvu.edu

WVU President James P. Clements speaks at the State of the University address Monday.

UNIVERSITY Continued from page 1

“WVU has continued to meet our enrollment goals while attracting students of higher academic standing,” he said. “We are showing significant increases in ACT, SAT and GPA for our incoming freshmen.”

Clements noted the University’s continued efforts to invest in its infrastructure and capital facilities with a number of new buildings in various locations across campus.

“I know sometimes it’s a struggle when you see a lot of cranes and there’s a lot of noise, and there’s a lot of dirt moving,” he said.

“It’s actually a really good

thing; we are building for our future and it’s really important. These capital investments, I believe, are necessary investments for the future of our great university.”

Clements said without the investments from past generations, the University would not be at the esteemed level it is today. “(They) made invest-

ments that gave rise to the Evansdale Campus and the Health Sciences Center, Thanks to their vision, WVU has an engineering college whose graduates are ranked in the top 25 by employers,” he said. “From the creation of the medical center, we have leveraged it into a statewide health system that treats more than 3,600 patients each day and

serves as the second largest employer in the state.

“Imagine our campus without those investments decades ago. It is our responsibility to make investments that will benefit generations that will follow us.”

Since Clements started at WVU four years ago, the University has seen 25,473 students graduate.

“That’s 25,473 dreams

coming true,” he said.

“Those dreams are inspired by and facilitated by all of you in this room. I can’t think of another place as committed to making a real difference as the West Virginia University community, and I am proud to serve along with you in that effort.” summer.ratcliff@mail.wvu.edu

‘Not just a spa’: new Beauty Bar hosts grand opening by megan calderado staff writer @dailyathenaeum

A new salon with a fun feel hosted its grand opening Monday, welcoming all women to treat themselves.

Bellini Beauty Bar, located at 3484 University Ave., offers services including hair styling, manicures, pedicures and skin care services – all with a new twist.

Hollee Temple, salon owner and law professor at West Virginia University, said Bellini is different from other spas, because its goal is to create an empowering atmosphere for women and make them feel beautiful.

“I’m a law professor; I’m definitely not a beauty insider,” Temple said. “But I think that makes it even more fun, because we’re creating a different kind of vibe here where it’s really about supporting women.”

In 2011 Temple published her first book, “Good Enough Is the New Perfect,” and its themes are now reflected in Bellini.

“The book is also about empowering women and reminding them that it’s OK to take care of themselves,” Temple said. “So many women say to me, ‘Well, I feel like it’s selfish if I do something for myself.’

“I have to convince them that it’s not selfish; it’s actu-

ally imperative.”

Temple’s dream of opening Bellini began during a trip to California with her family in 2013. Their hotel was up the street from the first Bellini Beauty Bar, which had just opened in February.

“I met the owners ... We became friends with them, and after a while, I thought, ‘This is a really cool idea, (and) I think this would fly in Morgantown,’” Temple said.

Upon entering the salon, customers walk into the girlfriend lounge where they can hang out and have coffee or relax before receiving their treatment.

Another room in the sa-

lon features a bar set up, at which the salon is trying to do something unique by having all services take place around the bar, Temple said.

“If you want to get a blow-out, a stylist will stand behind you and do your hair,” Temple said. “Or if you want to get your nails done next to a friend, a stylist will stand on the other side of the bar so you can do both at the same time.

“It’s kind of a girl’s dream.”

The girlfriend lounge also has jewelry and accessories that customers can purchase, most of which is produced by local artists.

Temple said everything is

kept at a reasonable price, especially to accommodate consumers in a college town.

Annie Sanders, Bellini stylist and WVU student, said Bellini strives to not only pamper customers, but to make them feel welcomed and supported.

“I did work in another salon, and it’s a nice salon, but this is just a fun feel. It’s a place where women can get together,” Sanders said.

“But this is so fun, because it’s just an environment where we’re trying to inspire each other and make each other feel beautiful.”

Temple said the salon is set up nicely for groups to come in and relax together.

The pedicure parlor offers two chairs side by side so friends can get pedicures at the same time. There are also five different rooms for skin care services like massages, waxing and facials.

Bellini welcomes everything from bachelorette parties, to a girls night out, to a little girl’s birthday party. Individual appointments are always welcome as well.

“It’s not just a spa,” Temple said. “You’re our girlfriend, and we welcome you here. We want you to feel nurtured here, and we want to take care of you.”

COURT

drew him to the University.

“Just the other day I got to rush the court at a WVU women’s volleyball game and sing Country Roads with the team on the court in the Coliseum,” he said.

“These experiences are what I was excited for and looked forward to when WVU was the only school that I applied to.”

Tucker said being a Mountaineer means more than the world to him, which is why he said he puts every inch of himself into bettering the University.

“I believe that being a Mountaineer is living your entire life as a Mountaineer,”

he said. “No matter whether you’re in junior high school, whether you’re in college or whether you’re an alum, you always have the pride of being a Mountaineer.”

Tucker said he decided to run for Homecoming king to play a larger role in the University.

“I wanted to be remembered in this University even more,” he said. “I love being a part of WVU and always will.”

When asked what one word best describes him, Tucker said, “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.”

athletics. He said as a child he dreamed of being a WVU student so he could attend every sporting event.

“Ever since I was a freshman, I began going to every single sporting event on campus,” Tucker said.

“I once went and watched a Quidditch match; that’s how committed I am to WVU.” The atmosphere at WVU and the long-standing traditions are what Tucker said

APP

Continued from page 1 schooling. The unemployment rate of young adults with communication issues is estimated to be about 80 percent.

While it is not impossible for those with speech challenges to further their education, this app may be the key to increasing the probability of it.

“TalkRocket Go is an amazing bridge to communication and a great tool for fighting social isolation,” Levy said. “A college student that uses (the app) can approach social and academic conversations with greater confidence, offering answers in class, asking questions in tutorial, and chiming in on everyday chats with ease.”

Campbell said she feels the app would benefit those suffering from hearing loss by the features it includes.

“I think it could be a wonderful tool that could get rid

of some of the stigma attached to people with hearing loss,” she said. “It could show that even though their ears do not work, their intelligence could shine through.”

TalkRocket Go and the College Life Pack are innovative; they won the Autism App of Distinction award and were also named the No.1 Medical App in the U.S. and Canada.

“TalkRocket Go is a great alternative to traditional tools for people with speech disabilities because of its design, features and low cost,” Levy said. “For those reasons, TalkRocket Go has become an essential tool in our users’ daily lives.”

TalkRocket Go is for sale in the iTunes store for $99.99 and is available for purchase around the world.

“The first step to empowering people through technology is to help them learn about what options are out there,” Levy said. ashley.denardo@mail.wvu.edu

Back Door to feature ‘90s karaoke ‘Supernatural’ premieres new season The Notes So Far: The Music of ‘Supernatural’

Ashley Denardo Web editor @AMdenardo

uhaps.com

By nick wesdock A&E WRITER @dailyathenaeum

The Back Door Bar & Tavern will offer a blast from the past Wednesday night as they host a ‘90s karaoke competition particularly aimed at a generation that grew up listening to hip-hop, grunge rock and pop.

While The Back Door features karaoke every Wednesday, the conteststyle nature of the evening is a new approach.

“This week it’s an actual competition,” said Jason Messenger, a general manager of The Back Door.

“We’ll do a bracket-style elimination, and we’ll have a few guest judges.”

Wednesday will be the first of a multi-week competition. This week, 16-18 contestants will sing, but only eight will move on to next week’s round.

Week two will consist of the head-to-head tournament-style round. First, second and third place winners will win a spring break trip, tickets to a West Virginia University football game and a bar tab.

Located just beneath

Casa D’Amici on High Street, the venue has teamed up with TheRubberU for the event, which coincidentally happens to be ladies’ night. All ladies 21 years or older get in free of cover, and anyone with TheRubberU wristband or app will also get in free of charge.

“We like to stay active with local businesses, and we try to help them as much as possible,” said Vic Lombard, owner of TheRubberU. “We just thought it would be something fun, something different.

You don’t see that much anymore.”

Mixed drinks will be $1 for women and $2 for men 8 p.m.-midnight. After midnight, American Honey and long island iced teas are $3, and all bombs are $4. Twenty-two ounce drafts run for $2.50 all night.

Many other bars in Morgantown feature karaoke nights, but The Back Door’s was the first, beginning in the late ‘90s.

“It started in 1997, and it’s been there ever since,” Messenger said. “The trends have gone up and

down. It used to be very, very popular and kind of dropped off, but it’s starting to build again.”

The staff at The Back Door has been working to bring back karaoke night and make it as strong as it was when it began.

“It’s one of the older standing bars in Morgantown,” Lombard said.

“They said, ‘We’d really like to get our karaoke night back to what it used to be.’ And I said, ‘Okay, yeah, I have some ideas.’ They all enjoyed the idea (of a singing contest).”

Messenger, along with many other bar managers, would like to see Morgantown as a whole return to its former glory.

“Morgantow n’s not quite like it used to be,” Messenger said. “We’re working with some of the other bars, as well to try to get Morgantown where it was when it was good, clean fun. Everybody was out; it was a good downtown, fun atmosphere.”

Doors open at 8 p.m.

Wednesday for anyone ages 21 and older. Karaoke will start at 10 p.m. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

DIY PROJECT

Through the years, “Supernatural” has been taking us on a roller coaster journey through the eyes of Sam Winchester (Jared Padalecki) and Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) as they carry on the family business – saving people and hunting beings that threaten humanity.

From the very first season, the show was more than its story. The combination of the success of the casting directors in choosing extras, the action-packed stunts at every turn, the unexpected yet not over whelming gore and the strong chemistry between the unusually attractive Padalecki and Ackles, make “Supernatural” a unique machine, especially in regard to network television. “ S u p e r n a t u r a l ’s ” choice in music is equally important to the show’s success.

Jamming to classics like Creedence Clearwater Revival, AC/DC, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Animals and Black Sabbath, the brothers hunt down the supernatural in various parts of America.

Some of these classics strike different chords with the fans than others, and in honor of the premiere of season nine, here are five songs that make any “Supernatural” fan either feel ready to kick some demon butt or giggle like a middle school girl.

5. “Baby Got Back” by Sir Mix-A-Lot This one is a giggler. In the very last episode of last season, this song plays as the ringtone on Crowley’s phone.

He’s the smooth-talking, mildly sexy demon, who is sometimes Team Winchester, but is mostly a pain in the rear.

While Crowley is busy killing Jody Mills, a smalltown sheriff the boys saved previously, Dean calls Crowley to try to stop the kill, and that’s when we hear the phone.

The reaction is a mix between a giggle and an “Of course that’s Crowley’s ringtone.”

4. “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor Another giggler, this song played in season four, episode six. As Dean contracts the virus that causes people to worry to death, he stays inside of the only place he feels safe: his 1967 Chevy Impala a.k.a. “Baby.” Sam is walking by when he hears “Eye of the Tiger,” and Dean is laying inside of his car, safely rocking out.

That’s not where this song ends.

There is extra video that was shot during this scene that hardcore fans, mostly of the female sort, will remember. Jensen Ackles lip syncs the first half of the song while dancing in, on, and around the Impala donning an air guitar. It’s endearing and connects with the audience, showing that these guys can be silly and have a good time.

editorial

Clements forecasts revenue deduction Monday marked President James P. Clements’s annual State of the University address.

With the recent spike in tuition, it’s no surprise Clements took the time to specifically address the budget issues concerning not only our University but the state as a whole, stating 2014 will see a loss of $13 million.

Although this reduction in funds is only partially abetted by the increase in private funding, increasing from $1.1 billion in 2021 to $1.65 billion, the fact remains the overall decrease in funds should require action from the school, reflecting in the recent tuition increase.

While increasing tuition makes sense with regard to the severe lack of funds projected for next year, Clements goes on to detail the various projects lined up for WVU, namely campus infrastructure improvements, technology, facilities and even raises for the 2015 fiscal year.

Given the massive budget cuts, how could the University possibly expect to fund any of these projects, much less all of them?

They may claim these are necessary ventures, but that leads us to wonder just how many are really that crucial.

Perhaps our tuition rates went up because of the imminent decrease in revenue. But WVU can’t really expect to be this ambitious

when it’s already working with a limited budget, lending itself to the idea that the University has simply reached into the pockets of its students to help fund these lucrative ventures.

Currently, tuition and fees account for 37 percent of the University’s $1 billion budget and are used for employee salaries and benefits, classroom and technology upgrades, libraries, faculty research, utilities and transportation, just to name a few.

Considering the technology upgrades and faculty raises forecast in the upcoming years, it’s really no surprise tuition increased by approximately 6 percent this year.

But who will be expected to fund these other projects, namely infrastructure and facility improvements? These are bound to require even more revenue than the University can feasibly expect to ask from its students.

Perhaps the increase in private funding could offset this prospective debt crisis, but perhaps the University would be better off waiting until it’s on more even footing to attempt meeting these lofty goals instead of immediately dipping into tuition rates to fund these developments, if indeed that’s where the bulk of the funds are coming from.

Clements further addresses the fact the U.S. is No. 16 of all developed

Wythe Woods/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

WVU President James P. Clements speaks at the State of the University. countries on the list of young adults with college degrees, citing this “innovation deficit” could be offset with maintenance of public service programs and academic research.

His reasoning behind this lies with enrollment goals, which essentially hope to

recruit higher achieving students. Indeed, incoming freshmen are showing marked increases in GPA, ACT and SAT scores.

Although the acquisition of brighter students should not be undermined, it’s debatable how this serves to eliminate the difference

in degree-holding young adults.

While Clements does state several successes, namely an increase in Fulbright scholars and recent developments in building infrastructure, the reduction in budget still casts a shadow over these

accomplishments.

Unfortunately, all we can do for now is wait to see how destructive this loss will be for 2014, and consequently how much compensation will be taken from student wallets. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Around this time last year, people all over the nation were shocked by the rape of a 16-year-old girl by her fellow students in Steubenville, Ohio.

Growing up only a short drive from Steubenville and spending a great deal of time with family from there, the outrage, shock and confusion literally hit home.

sive protests, leaked phone calls and videos materialized that were used to condemn everyone from the Steubenville athletes to the town as a whole. Ultimately Trent Mayes and Ma’lik Richmond were found guilty of rape, sentenced to juvenile detention and forced to register as sex offenders.

The conviction came as a relief to those who followed the frenzy from afar, but for the members of Steubenville, Ohio, life will never be the same. The dust has finally settled, but a broken town has been revealed behind it.

Many may argue Steubenville deserves to be broken, that a town that allegedly protected rapists while silencing a victim in the name something as trivial as high school football deserves to exist in infamy.

This seems illogical. After all, the criminals are locked away and justice prevailed in the end, despite the corruption that attempted to hinder it.

However, when looking at the bigger picture, one must ask, is anyone really any better off? Of course the rapists deserve to be punished for their unspeakable crimes, but is Steubenville, or any other town in the country, better equipped to handle a situation like this in the future? Will the punishment given to Richmond and Mayes really do anything to prevent something like this from happening again?

Some may say threat of incarceration will be enough to prevent rape. In an ideal world, this would be true but the real world is much less black and white.

A 2007 study commis-

sioned by the JFA institute, a nonprofit dedicated to evaluating the country’s criminal justice practices, concluded that imprisonment has almost no impact on crime rates. The study authors wrote that our “justice system practices exacerbate the crime problem, unnecessarily damage the lives of millions of people, waste tens of billions of dollars each year and create less than ideal social and economic conditions.”

The United States, which accounts for only 5 percent of the world’s total population, boasts 25 pecent of the world’s prison inmates. Despite the growing number of people behind bars, crime rates continue to skyrocket.

So many of us view imprisonment as the answer to the ever-growing problem of sex crimes not sim-

ply because we think sex criminals deserve punishment, but because we see no alternative. For those who advocate systems of transformative justice, there is the belief there are alternatives, and those alternatives lead to real healing for everyone affected by sex crimes.

According to anti-child abuse organization Generation Five, transformative justice is an approach to dealing with crime that “puts transformation and liberation at the heart of the change. It looks at the individual and community experiences as well as the social conditions.”

Transformative justice includes penalties for criminals, such as public exposure of their crimes, but also includes rehabilitation and allows the criminal to make amends.

It also includes working

with community organizations and bystanders to help prevent future crimes.

Although it seems like the most obvious method for handling a rapist is to lock them away and move on, it only leaves behind broken communities and families. It does little to prevent rape in the future, or equip the community with the tools necessary to deal with future issues; it only exacerbates the problem.

Using methods of transformative justice in situations like the Steubenville rape case could actually lead to real healing and change for everyone involved. By rehabilitating and changing rather than punishing, we could do a great deal more to prevent such atrocities in the future. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Liberal firearm regulations barbaric; deficit to our nation austin rempel columnist

With recent shootings catching the media’s attention, it seems appropriate to address our nation’s gun control laws.

We have the most liberal firearm regulations in the first world and suffer from the highest rate of gunrelated deaths. The pattern here is apparent and unacceptable.

Second Amendmenttoting conservatives favor more relaxed laws, spouting Wild West anachronisms like, “The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.” The logical fallacy of this statement is easy to find, but switching some of the nouns in the phrase makes it even more obvi-

ous. Instead let’s say, “The only way to stop a bad guy with lasers is a good guy with lasers.” At first that sounds great, but it implies more people should have lasers, and the deaths associated from them are an acceptable number for the public’s peace of mind.

I’ll agree not all revolvers or rifles are used with malicious intent, but the child who innocently stumbles onto the loaded gun or the demented contractor who blows through a military station is simply too great a risk.

Still, I suppose these points are moot when there are people who talk about the gun ownership rights with one hand while praising the death sentence, deportation of Mexican-American high school students and shooting of abortion

doctors with the other.

No, these walking icons of hypocrisy don’t seem to care about the casualties of their irresponsible policies.

The left would favor stricter gun laws, requiring more intensive background checks, national registries and waiting periods. These are good places to start, but a parent who legally obtains a gun may still have an unstable child who plans to cause mayhem. These policies assume more stringent rules would prevent shopping mall shootings or Capitol Hill attacks. No, these measures are not enough.

As we look at our views of gun control, we really need to ask ourselves one question: is the life of a mother, brother, aunt or grandfather worth the

right to a handheld device capable of hurling whitehot metal into the body of another? If you avoid the question and assert you have a right to a handgun, then I disagree.

People have a right to life, unhindered by the fear of an active gunman. This talk of a “government takeover” if gun control laws are tightened is ridiculous, as an AK47 does little against the tanks, jets and battleships currently at the disposal of our armed forces.

Even so, our country is free and will remain free, because people complain too much about fast food wait lines and smoking bans for someone to ever want to rule it for more than eight years at a time.

While I am unquestionably certain the Second Amendment refers to our

right to keep the arms we use to kill in hand-to-hand combat, I’m willing to make concessions. Starting immediately, our government should instate a firearm trade-in, swapping modern weapons of mass destruction for colonial era weapons. Those who insist we have a right to firearms will have the exact style weapons used by the founding fathers.

We’ll also eliminate all firearm registries and background checks, as the size and inaccuracy of these 18th century rifles means they’re a threat only to the slow and those standing in British shoulder-to-shoulder formations. Then shopping mall shootings or cafeteria massacres will be a thing of the past, as the load time of a musket would surely mean a handful of

patriots – those “good guys with guns”– could sound the alarm and bayonet the would-be killer.

If you find my solution impractical, let me remind you the idea of an active shooter is a modern term created to respond to a modern problem, but a step into the past will give us the answers we need.

Then, if the issue of muskets becomes a problem, we can go back a little further to bows, arrows and long swords. While you might think the idea of defending yourself with a claymore is barbaric, I want you to ask yourself if a society that values the “right” to a handheld bullet thrower over the right to life hasn’t already crossed the line into barbarism. daperspectives@mail.wvu.edu

Maxwell’s reopens with new look

Mick Posey/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

The inside of Maxwell’s features a cozy atmosphere.

by maria solano correspondent @dailyathenaeum

A popular destination since 1976, Maxwell’s often attracts a diverse crowd to their traditional restaurant.

However, the main owners, John Lichter and Ann Lawson, decided to close down Maxwell’s and give it a subtle makeover.

“We tried to keep the ambience the same so it would still feel comfortable, but we did have to change a lot of things to bring it up to code,” Lichter said.

Some of these changes include new flooring, stainless steel equipment and

brighter lighting.

“We are reopening with exactly the same menu (and) a little bit different format on the menu itself, but they’re the same recipes that have been successful for 37 years,” Litcher said. “We have never had a complaint about the food, so we kept that the same.”

Maxwell’s will reopen Sunday, and their new business, Max’s Late Night, will also be making its debut.

“It is a brand new operation; a new business in the same location,” Litcher said.

“It is specifically for students, (offering) late-night snacks and early morning

breakfast.”

Max’s Late Night will have regular hours Thursday through Saturday 10 p.m.-6 a.m.

Maxwell’s has always offered healthy food and healthy choices on their menu, but Late Night offers fries, burgers and other types of unhealthy food typical of a college student’s diet.

Max’s Late Night recently started its own Facebook page which has been very well-received by students and Morgantown residents.

Maxwell’s as well as Max’s Late Night has attained a lot of support from students.

“We have also received

a lot of support from the service workers. We have been getting a lot of regulars from Lux Nightclub, Joe Mamas, Rocktop Bar & Grill and our neighbors who get done at 3 a.m.,” Lichter said.

Maxwell’s is usually closed between 4-10 p.m., the time during which staff usually prepare for their next concept, he said.

According to Lichter, Maxwell’s has broadened thier horizons and now offers healthy choices by day and comfort food by night, encouraging the public to embrace the change. daa&e@mail.wvu.edu

Kenyan Cafe opens new location, offers healthy options

BY SAM BOSSERMAN CORRESPONDENT @Dailyathenaeum

The Kenyan Cafe opened up a brand new location last month, setting up shop right next to the Rusted Musket on University Avenue. The cafe specializes in serving healthy, organic foods in the traditional African style.

The cafe’s owner, Denis Gekara, said his restaurant offers flavors that are unique and hopes to provide students in particular with an increased variety of food choices by opening up closer to the Downtown Campus.

“We want to give people

another option in choosing where to eat,” Gekara said. “(Residents and students) already have almost everything, but I think we still do offer something unique.”

Gekara said the Kenyan Cafe is perfect for those with non-traditional diets, as well as those simply seeking a healthier place to eat.

“We have a lot of experience with vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes,” Gekara said. “We also use many organic ingredients in our dishes.”

In addition to the healthy entrees, the Kenyan Cafe’s menu boasts a variety of hot and cold beverages.

Gekara said students who

are looking for a pick-meup during the day should keep the cafe in mind.

“We have a lot of different types of teas and smoothies for people to come in and enjoy,” Gekara said.

Gekara said the atmosphere of the restaurant is very relaxed and hopes students stop by between their classes, even if it is just for some tea.

Gekara also said that the new location makes it easier for students to get to the cafe. He said his goal was to make the cafe an option for all students, not just those on the Evansdale Campus.

“It’s a very convenient

Elizabeth Smart releases detailed memoir SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Minutes after 14-yearold Elizabeth Smart was snatched from her bedroom in the dead of night, a police cruiser idled by along a neighborhood street as she was forced to the ground at knifepoint. “Move and I will kill you!” her captor hissed.

It was one of several fleeting times Smart watched a rescue slip away during her nine-month ordeal, she recounts in “My Story,” a 308page book released by St. Martin’s Press on Monday.

She writes that she was so terrified of the street preacher who kidnapped her that when she was rescued by police in a Salt Lake City suburb in March 2003, she only reluctantly identified herself.

Between the heartbreak of missed chances, Smart writes, she was treated as a sex object by Brian David Mitchell and as a slave by his wife, Wanda Barzee. She says they denied her food and water for days at a time.

A U.S. attorney called it one of the kidnapping crimes of the century. Smart, a quiet, devout Mormon who played the harp and loved horses, vanished without a trace from her home high above Salt Lake City.

Smart, now 25, is married, living in Park City, finishing a music degree at Brigham Young University and traveling across the country giving speeches and doing advocacy work. She created the Elizabeth Smart Foundation to bring awareness to predatory crimes against children. For her, the book was another way to help bring nine months of brutality to a close.

“I want people to know that I’m happy in my life right now,” Smart told The

Associated Press. “I also, even more so, want to reach out to people who might not be in a good situation.

Maybe they’re in a situation that was similar to the one that I was in.”

Smart said she hopes the book, which The AP received in advance of its release from the publisher, will help other victims know that it’s possible to be happy and move forward with their lives and will shed some light on what was going through her head during what she called “nine months of hell.”

Her account was written with help from Chris Stewart, a Utah congressman who has authored books with religious and patriotic themes.

Smart says she doesn’t care to understand Mitchell, yet her book opens a window on his personality. He was a downtown Salt Lake City fixture in a robe and sandals who first laid a crooked eye on Smart when her mother offered the man $5 and work at the family home.

At that moment, he resolved to take her as the second of a hoped-for five wives, he later told Smart.

Smart calls Mitchell a “manipulative, antisocial and narcissistic pedophile.”

Against that backdrop, the book chronicles a series of near-rescues.

Only days into the kidnapping, a helicopter hovered over the makeshift camp in the mountains just 5 miles from Smart’s home where she was kept tethered to trees by steel cables.

She was forced inside a tent as the wash of the helicopter’s rotors bent trees around them. After an eternal minute, she watched the helicopter slowly glide away.

It never returned.

“Why didn’t I cry out for help?” Smart reflects. The answer “comes down to fear.”

The young girl believed Mitchell invincible. Despite years of misdeeds, he had never served more than a few days in jail.

After Smart’s rescue, Mitchell wheedled his way through courts for six years, leaving them bogged down in hearings over his mental competence. Federal prosecutors took over, and a judge ruled Mitchell was faking mental illness.

Mitchell is serving two life terms, sentenced in 2011.

Barzee was given 15 years for her role in Smart’s kidnapping and sexual assault.

Mitchell managed to convince some psychiatrists he was insane. He shouted hymns and songs in court and ordered judges to “repent.” Smart described a moment in his federal trial when Mitchell feigned collapse, with paramedics rushing into court.

Between gasps and moans on a gurney, Mitchell locked eyes with Smart for the first time in years. He offered an “evil grin” to show he could still control others, she writes. “I returned his cold stare, never looking away.”

It was outside San Diego, where Mitchell took Barzee and Smart for winter at camp, that Smart devised a plan. She convinced Mitchell that God intended them to return to Salt Lake City.

On their arrival outside the city, police stopped the odd-looking trio. Smart writes that before she identified herself, police seemed to know they had found her, asking, “Are you Elizabeth Smart?”

COMMUNICATION PROBLEM

GREG MADIA MULTIMEDIA EDITOR @GREGMADIA

Millard with best grasp of West Virginia offense

mulated 468 yards on 62 attempts.

Baylor scored its first touchdown in the first 40 seconds of the team’s Big 12 Conference opener.

“I just think it’s funny how people still say we have something to prove when we’ve had four weeks,” Petty said. “70 points, I guess, isn’t enough.”

The Bears’ 864 yards of total offense was a Big 12 record. Baylor had more rushing yards (468) than passing yards (396), exceeding a school-record 781 total yards it had in its previous two games.

“We’re just hitting on all cylinders,” said Baylor running back Glasco Martin. “It’s the right scheme, the right players and everything is working for us.

It’d be hard to beat this offense.”

In Saturday night’s dynamic offensive showing, Baylor became the only team to score at least 66 points in four straight

As the Mountaineers trailed early and were facing a third and 10 against No. 17 Baylor, West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen made an interesting decision. It didn’t have to do with play calling; it had to do with personnel.

After naming Florida State transfer Clint Trickett the starting quarterback two days earlier, Holgorsen elected to swap backup Paul Millard into the game on a key play.

Millard then came in and executed a screen pass to Charles Sims that was one block away from gaining a first down.

After scolding Trickett, Holgorsen wanted a more knowledgeable quarterback in the game and someone able to communicate plays from the sideline to the players in the huddle.

What is tough to understand is why Holgorsen doesn’t want Millard serving as field general from the opening kickoff to the final whistle for his team.

Holgorsen gave Millard his opportunity to win the starting job back in Weeks 1 and 2. Millard managed the game in Week 1 against William & Mary but failed to make plays to win the game in Week 2 against Oklahoma. So, if the premise is that Millard can’t grow as quarterback, it is easier to understand.

Another puzzling issue is why Holgorsen can’t accept the fact that Trickett is going to need to take time to learn how to communicate Holgorsen’s offense.

Holgorsen has gone as far to say that Trickett stares at him like he’s from another planet when communicating signals from the sideline. He’s even made the analogy that Trickett thinks he is speaking a completely foreign language at times.

Trickett played in a completely different system at Florida State under Jimbo Fisher than what Holgorsen is trying to get him to do now, and it isn’t working. After the game Saturday night, Holgorsen was befuddled Trickett couldn’t comprehend calls from the sideline.

It isn’t Holgorsen’s fault that Trickett doesn’t understand, nor is it Trickett’s; it is the simple matter that it takes time to learn how to communicate Holgorsen’s signal from the sideline to the other 10 athletes on the football field.

That said, Millard is best suited to do that right now.

He may not be the strongest, most talented or most athletic, but he does have the ability to run Holgorsen’s offense the way it has looked the past two seasons at West Virginia.

When Millard played in both the first half as a sub for Trickett and in the second half as the quarterback, West Virginia’s offense at least somewhat resembled what Holgorsen’s offense looks like.

While Millard was in the game, Holgorsen was able to call screens, out routes and fades at the appropriate time, not just play-action bombs down the field like when Trickett was in the game.

Additionally, the time between snaps was shorter and Millard was more efficient when he was out on the field.

Trickett finished the game 9 of 28 for 161 yards, a touchdown and an interception, while Millard finished 8 of 13 for 115 yards and two scores.

Holgorsen knows offense and his personnel better than anyone, but in

West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen encourages his team before taking on No. 17 Baylor.

Lack of communication between Trickett, Holgorsen contributes to offensive struggles

BY CONNOR MURRAY ASSOCIATE SPORTS EDITOR @CONNORKMURRAY

There’s no doubt something is missing from the West Virginia offense this season. What was the strength of the team for the past two seasons has now become a major weakness.

“Offensively, we’re not equipped to keep up at this point in time. Hopefully we get there at some point,” said West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen.

Following redshirt junior quarterback Clint Trickett’s first start against No. 11 Oklahoma State, head coach Dana Holgorsen stressed that the communication between the coach and quarterback needed improvement.

During Saturday’s 73-42 loss to No. 17 Baylor, Trickett and Holgorsen seemed to be on entirely different pages several times during the game.

“I’m not doing something right,” Holgorsen said.

“There (were) a lot of times in the first couple of series’ where I was giving (Trickett) specific orders, and they weren’t being followed.”

On a third down in the first quarter, Holgorsen sent in junior quarterback Paul Millard to replace Trickett for two plays, but Trickett returned on the next drive.

“That’s why (Millard) went in early ... we weren’t getting called what I felt like needed to get called,” Holgorsen said.

Trickett went 9-28, throwing for 161 yards, a

touchdown and an interception against the Bears.

He was taken out several times during the game.

Trickett said he believes there were communication problems between he and Holgorsen throughout the game.

“There were communication problems … It’s going to happen,” Trickett said.

“You’ve just got to adapt and move on.”

In the fourth quarter, when the game was all but over, Holgorsen put Millard back in and let him finish the game.

While it didn’t matter much in the end, Millard was able to move the West Virginia offense down the field and put up points.

“You’ve got to be ready at all times … Whenever

you’ve got to step in there and make a play you’ve got to be ready,” Millard said.

“It’s not the easiest thing to do in the world, running in there cold, but it’s the task at hand now.”

A week after Trickett won the job with a gutsy performance in a 30-21 victory over No. 11 Oklahoma State, it appears the quarterback competition is far from over; Holgorsen said he will reevaluate the situation during the bye week.

“I have to look at it. I thought Paul did some good things when he went in there, and I though Clint did some good things when he went in there,” Holgorsen said. “We’re going to need them both.

“We probably could have put (Childress) in there, but

he’s not quite ready because he hasn’t had the practice reps. You’re going to need him at some point…

“The guy who kind of has the hot hand is the guy we’ll end up going with.”

Now at the half-way point in their season, the Mountaineers’ record sits at 3-3 overall and 1-2 in the Big 12.

Now on a bye week, Holgorsen will have two weeks to improve the communication issues with his quarterback, whomever that may be, that have contributed to the poor production from West Virginia’s offense this season.

SPORTS EDITOR @BATRA01

If Saturday’s 73-42 Baylor victory over West Virginia proved anything, it’s that the Bears’ offense was as good as advertised.

Leading up to BU’s matchup with the Mountaineers, many believed the quality of competition Baylor faced wasn’t the best.

Defeating teams such as Buffalo wasn’t really convincing, and WVU was considered the first true test for Baylor’s potent offense.

The Bears did not disappoint Saturday in Waco, Texas. BU scored eight of the first nine times it had the football on the way to the blowout win; the nation’s most explosive offense proved statistically it was just as good as experts believed.

The No. 17 Bears matched the 63 points they scored in last year’s 70-63 loss to WVU about midway through the third quarter. The team, led by sixth-

year head coach Art Briles, proved they could move the football at will.

Baylor had eight rushing touchdowns and 864 total yards of offense on the night. It was the most yardage a Mountaineer defense has ever allowed, and the Bears’ 73 points was the most a WVU opponent has had since Michigan scored 130 points in 1904.

BU’s 56 points in the first half were the most against West Virginia since World War I. For much of the second half, Baylor used its reserves, and a lot of starters were able to get some rest following such a dominant first half.

Baylor first-year starter Bryce Petty went 17-of25 for 347 yards and two touchdowns. Lache Seastrunk, a Heisman contender after four impressive performances, rushed for 172 yards and two touchdowns in his eighth consecutive 100-yard performance.

The Bears were able to successfully move the ball on the ground, as they accu-

RIFLE

No. 1 West Virginia beats Ohio State in season opener

WYTHE WOODS/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

Sophomore Garrett Spurgeon prepares to take a shot during West Virginia’s sesaon-opening win over Ohio State.

BY MEGHAN CARR SPORTS WRITER

The No. 1 West Virginia University rifle team opened its 2013-14 season with a 4657-4648 win Sunday at the WVU Rifle Range.

Even though the Mountaineers won their first match of the season, head coach Jon Hammond said there is still a lot to improve.

“Overall our performance was a little rusty. It wasn’t what we were looking for, but there (were) still good individual performances,” Hammond said.

“This was a learning experience for us, and we

will take what we have learned and improve this season.”

The Mountaineers (10) defeated the Buckeyes 2356-2343 in air rifle, while the Buckeyes (0-1) scored a 2305-2301, giving them the victory over the Mountaineers in small bore.

“Credit to Ohio State; they shot really well and beat us in small bore.

Maren (Prediger) helped us by shooting a 599 in air rifle,” Hammond said.

WVU junior Maren Prediger shot a career-best 599 (100-100-100-100-10099) in the air rifle win. Prediger, a Petersaurach, Germany, native, scored one shot short of the NCAA and WVU record earned

by former Mountaineers Nicco Campriani and Petra Zublasing.

“Maren shot probably one of her best air rifle matches ever today, and she shot at a high level in a point in the match where the score was very close,” Hammond said. “I believe she only shot a 9 at the very end. She was very close to breaking the record today.”

OSU’s Remington Lyman won small-bore with a 584 mark. WVU sophomore Garrett Spurgeon tied OSU Deanna Binnie for second place with a 581 (193 kneeling, 196 prone, 192 standing) score.

Lyman finished second (592) in air rifle, while WVU senior Daniel Sojka

tied with Binnie for third place (588). Spurgeon and senior Chance Cover each shot 587 and placed fifth; the score was one shot short of Cover’s personalbest mark. Junior Meelis Kiisk finished seventh with a 586 score.

Despite the smallbore team loss, WVU shot seven of the match’s topeight scores. Sojka finished fourth with a 580 mark, while sophomore Patrick Sunderman shot 578 and finished fifth. Cover placed sixth with a personal-best mark of 576, and Prediger and Kiisk tied for seventh with 574s. Prediger’s small-bore score was two shots below her career high.

T h e Mo u n t a i n e e r s aren’t usually known for their small bore scores, but Hammond said that’s because they have been fortunate to have exceptionally talented air rifle shooters. He said he hopes his team can become more balanced as the season progresses.

Sunday’s Mountaineer scoring squad was comprised of Prediger, Kiisk, Spurgeon and juniors Taylor Ciatola and Thomas Kyanko.

Mountaineer redshirt freshman Jean-Pierre Lucas and freshman Sydney Smith made their WVU debuts today. Both had their best showings in air rifle, with Lucas shooting 581

and Smith shooting 575.

“Our two freshmen, Lucas and Smith, had solid performances for their first outing. I’m sure they wanted to do a little better, but I think they did well for their first time out there in a match,” Hammond said.

Lyman shot a matchbest 1176 combined score, while Prediger paced WVU with an 1173 total.

After Sunday’s win, WVU claims a 40-0 record over Ohio State.

The Rifle team opens its Great American Rifle Conference (GARC) season Sunday and will travel to face No. 6 Nebraska at the Nebraska Rifle Range. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

ROWING

Mountaineers earn four victories at Head of the Ohio

BY ANTHONY PECORARO SPORTS WRITER @DAILYATHENAEUM

The West Virginia University rowing team completed its first regatta of the season this weekend at the Head of the Ohio regatta.

The regatta took place on the Allegheny River, and WVU came away with four first-place victories.

“We had a good day coming out on the winning side of some very close races,” said head coach

Jimmy King. “Today’s effort was good enough, but our team knows that we have a lot of work ahead of us to get where we want to be by spring.”

T h e Mo u n t a i n e e r s picked up their first win through Karen Verwey’s first-place finish for WVU in the women’s open 1x.

Verwey defeated four other rowers – three from Duquesne – with a time of 19:45.20.

In the women’s open 8+, the WVU boat led by

coxswain Mallory Fisher edged out Duquesne’s top boat for first place with a time of 15:34.66.

West Virginia’s second boat, led by coxswain Emily Deming, crossed the line in fourth place with a time of 16:07.8. A third boat, led by coxswain Alexandra Basil, finished 14th out of 18 teams for the Mountaineers, crossing in 17:41.83.

WVU entered two boats in the women’s open 2x, crossing the line in first

and third place. The boat of Liz Kantak and Courtney Schrand recorded a time of 17:41.46, while the combo of Kelly Kramer and Rachel Cokeley finished in 18:25.21.

The Mountaineers concluded the day with a race that featured four boats in the women’s open 4+.

Kramer, Schrand, Mollie Rosen, Elizabeth Duarte coxswain Sarah Dodd led the way with 17:41.41, beating out the top boat from Marietta College in

less than two seconds for Schuylkill in Philadelphia. the first place finish. dasports@mail.wvu.edu WVU’s boat led by coxswain Morgan Leach recorded a time of 18:00.99, which came in sixth place, and seventh. About 10 seconds behind was WVU’s boat led by coxswain Allison Arnold, which crossed the line 19th out of 27 boats with a time of 19:29.14.

Wacha shuts down Pirates, St. Louis forces Game 5 PITTSBURGH (AP) — Michael Wacha heard the chants. Then again, when 40,000 people clad in black scream your name relentlessly for the better part of three hours, it’s kind of hard to miss.

The goal was to rattle the St. Louis rookie, remind him that 22-year-old pitchers aren’t built to withstand the pressure of an elimination game.

One problem. Wacha doesn’t really do rattled. He doesn’t do pressure, either.

The louder PNC Park grew, the more unhittable Wacha became.

“I kind of like it,” Wacha said. “It kind of gives me adrenaline. I kind of use it in my favor.”

And the Pittsburgh Pirates – not to mention anyone else he might face in the postseason – “kind of” need to get used to it.

Wacha took a no-hit bid into the eighth inning and the Cardinals showed off their October poise, edging the Pirates 2-1 Monday to force a winner-take-all Game 5 in the NL division

series. St. Louis is 7-1 over the last three years with its season on the line.

“I think you take high talent and high character people that are motivated and support each other, and they don’t give up,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. “That’s a tough combination.”

One the Pirates are still trying to master. Pedro Alvarez hit his third home run of the series, connecting with one out in the eighth for Pittsburgh’s only hit in Game 4. It wasn’t enough for the Pirates to advance to the NL championship series for the first time in 21 years.

“I guess that’s why we play five,” star center fielder Andrew McCutchen said.

“We’ll be ready for the fifth one.”

The Pirates weren’t quite ready for the fourth one, not with the way Wacha was dealing. He walked two and struck out nine before giving way to the bullpen in the eighth.

Matt Holliday’s two-run homer off Charlie Morton in the sixth was all the offense

required on a day the Cardinals tossed the first one-hitter in the club’s lengthy postseason history.

Trevor Rosenthal worked around a two-out walk in the ninth, retiring McCutchen on a popup to shallow center field for his first postseason save.

“It was a good pitch for him,” McCutchen said. “I wish it got a little more of the barrel. It would have been a great story.”

Instead, a taut series will head back to Busch Stadium.

Game 5 will be Wednesday, with ace Adam Wainwright starting for the NL Central champion Cardinals and rookie Gerrit Cole going for the wild-card Pirates. Both pitchers won last week in the NLDS. The Cardinals finished with only three hits, and that was enough. Holliday got two of them, including his homer in the sixth after Morton walked big-hitting Carlos Beltran to start the inning.

“You could go back and look at pitches over and

over again and second guess yourself,” Morton said. “I don’t know where that pitch was. It was outer third somewhere, thigh-down and he went out and got it, he’s strong.”

So was the 6-foot-6 kid on the one, the one barely a year removed from a standout college career at Texas A&M. Wacha didn’t permit a runner until walking Russell Martin leading off the sixth.

Wacha nearly no-hit the Washington Nationals in his last start on Sept. 24, surrendering only an infield single

by Ryan Zimmerman with two outs in the ninth.

Working so quickly the Pirates never had time to get settled, he breezed through Pittsburgh’s revamped lineup like he was in extended spring training. Mixing his fastball and changeup masterfully, Wacha overwhelmed the Pirates from the moment he stepped onto the mound.

Alvarez got the fans at PNC Park roaring with his homer, and Wacha followed by walking Martin on four pitches. Carlos Marti-

nez relieved and Gold Glove catcher Yadier Molina made a key play, throwing out pinch-runner Josh Harrison after a botched hit-andrun attempt.

Martinez struck out Jose Tabata to end the eighth, and Rosenthal took over to begin the ninth. Neil Walker drew a two-out walk before McCutchen made the final out.

“That’s what it’s all about,” Rosenthal said. “That’s what you dream of, you dream of two outs in the bottom of the ninth, you know ... bases loaded, the best hitter up, and getting out of that spot.”

One the Cardinals rarely found themselves in on a day Wacha showed he’s just a big a part of his team’s present as he is its megawatt future.

McCutchen came into the game hitting .538 in the postseason but looked at a 97 mph fastball for strike three in the first. Marlon Byrd, Pittsburgh’s most consistent player since being acquired from the Mets in late August, watched a fullcount heater in the second

that sent him walking back to the dugout in disbelief.

It was a look repeated time and again by Byrd and the rest of his baffled teammates. Wacha struck out five of the first seven batters.

“He went out and hit his spots and it seemed like everything we were hitting, we were just missing, just missing,” McCutchen said.

Martin remained Pittsburgh’s lone baserunner until the eighth. Wacha fell behind 3-1 and Alvarez hit a 93 mph fastball at the knees onto the concourse in right-center.

The jolt, however, faded when Molina nailed Harrison at second minutes later to set up a 24th – and final – meeting between two teams that have been shadowing each other all summer and into the fall.

NOTES: Wacha was the 19th overall pick in the 2012 draft. He earned his first major league win on June 11. ...

A.J. Burnett pitched Game 1 for Pittsburgh, but manager Clint Hurdle picked Cole to move ahead and start Game 5.

MEN’S SOCCER

WVU to wrap up homestand against Stony Brook

DOYLE MAURER/THE DAILY ATHENAEUM

Junior forward Andy Bevin attempts a shot against Northern Illinois during West Virginia’s 4-0 win Saturday.

BY JOE MITCHIN SPORTS WRITER @DAILYATHENAEUM

The fifth and final match of West Virginia’s men’s soccer home stand will be an out-of-conference tilt with Stony Brook. The Mountaineers have gone 1-3 on the current stint and 3-3-1 overall at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium.

West Virginia got back on track Saturday evening when the team buried Mid-American Conference mates Northern Illinois 4-0.

The frustration of a fourmatch losing streak that dated back to mid-September came out early, as the

Mountaineers scored three times in the first 17 minutes of the match. WVU stands at 4-5-1 on the season and 1-1 in the league. Four of the team’s five losses have come by a single goal.

Freshman Christian Diaz earned his first career goal Saturday against NIU which turned into the game-winning goal. The midfielder has started all 10 matches for WVU and has become an important part for the team’s success, despite his youth.

“You’re talking about a freshman that probably gets more touches than anyone else on our team,” said WVU head coach Mar-

lon LeBlanc. “You can see his growth from day one to now. He’s getting better and better every day. The kid is a student of the game and is legitimately one of the better young players in the country right now.”

Stony Brook is 5-4 in 2013 so far but has yet to beat a team with more than three wins at the time of the match. The upstate New York school hails from the America East Conference where they were picked to finish second in the league during the pre-season.

The Seawolves are led by senior midfielder Will Casey, who has scored four of the team’s eight goals

this season. The team has used two different goalkeepers this season: freshman Jason Orban and senior Carlos Villa. Villa has been between-the-pipes for Stony Brook in their last two contests, both ending in shutouts.

Ryan Anatol is in his third year as head coach at Stony Brook, and both of his first two seasons were successful. In 2011, the Seawolves won the conference championship and went to the NCAA tournament for only the third time in program history. Last season, Anatol guided Stony Brook to an 11-win season and finished with the best RPI in

program history despite being left out of the Big Dance.

West Virginia and Stony Brook have never before met on the soccer field, but both schools still know a bit about one another.

Before becoming the head coach at Stony Brook, Anatol was an assistant at USF from 2005-10 in the Big East. During that span, West Virginia met with the Bulls nine times, including three times in the conference tournament. Anatol and USF held a 3-5-1 advantage.

With eight matches remaining on the 2013 schedule, the Mountaineers need to pile victories on top of each other. WVU won just

twice in September but started out the new month with a bang Saturday.

West Virginia still believes they can make this season special.

“There’s no lack of confidence,” LeBlanc said. “We still believe we are a good team. We’re arguably the youngest team playing the opponents that we’re playing out there. It’s a real credit to (the team) that they continue to press on in regards to what we are trying to do.”

West Virginia and Stony Brook meet tonight at 7 at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium. dasports@mail.wvu.edu

Athletics edge Tigers DETROIT (AP) — The Oakland Athletics have beaten Detroit with both pitching and power. And that’s left the Tigers on the brink of elimination – and simmering with frustration.

Brandon Moss, Josh Reddick and Seth Smith homered for the Athletics, who chased Anibal Sanchez in the fifth inning Monday and defeated the Tigers 6-3 for a 2-1 AL division series lead.

Moss broke a 3-all tie in the fifth with a solo shot, and Smith’s two-run drive later in the inning ended Sanchez’s day. It was an impressive offensive show after the teams split two taut, low-scoring games in Oakland.

This one got a little tense in the ninth, too, when A’s closer Grant Balfour and Detroit hitter Victor Martinez started shouting at each other after a foul ball, causing benches and bullpens to empty.

“I don’t know what happened. Honestly, I know that

Balfour is fiery on the mound – he’s yelling a lot and spitting everywhere,” Moss said. “It’s who he is. You know, sometimes it can ruffle the feathers of other teams.”

Oakland can close out this series Tuesday and reach the AL championship series for the first time since 2006 – when the Athletics were swept by the Tigers.

“There’s no tricks. We’ve got to win the game tomorrow to try to extend it to Game 5. It’s that simple,” Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. “We ran into another situation where we didn’t put enough runs on the board and an excellent starting pitcher didn’t have a very good day.”

Sanchez, the American League’s ERA leader, allowed six runs – five earned – and eight hits in 4 1-3 innings.

Smith has homered off Sanchez more than any other player, having now done it twice in the regular season and twice in the playoffs.

Baylor

of total offense on the night.

“Our players played extremely actively and with a lot of intensity and purpose,” Briles said. “That was our plan to play with purpose early … We decided just to judge the game by the first half, because we felt like we did what we needed in the first half to win the football game.”

As a unit, Baylor proved what it needed to at Floyd Casey Stadium Saturday night, and the Bears will be a force to be reckoned with if their offensive play continues.

Continued from page 7 games. If BU is able to score at least 60 points next weekend at Kansas State, it will become the first team since Oklahoma in 2008 to score at least 60 points in five consecutive games.

Briles was satisfied with his team’s intensity and drive to win in this conference game against a WVU team coming off of an upset against then-No. 11 Oklahoma State. The Bears had 17 more first downs and nearly 500 more yards
