CUPB Eastern remembers 9/11, balloon release honors victims addresses budget concerns By AJ Fournier City Reporter |@DEN_News The Council on University Planning and Budgeting discussed concerns about enrollment and Eastern’s future at its first meeting Friday. Eastern President David Glassman said enrollment was reduced by about 1,000 students this semester, but it could have been worse. Glassman said the plan now is to focus on moving the university forward to get greater enrollment numbers in the future. However, rumors from both social media and word-of-mouth about the university closing caused the enrollment to drop, Glassman said, and as a result new students did not think Eastern would be open. Glassman said marketing Eastern is a big issue and the university is trying to get the word out about the university. “We have four Rural King trucks that will be driving all over Illinois and neighboring states that are fully dressed in EIU apparel,” Glassman said. The 17-foot-long trucks show pictures of graduation and have Eastern’s image and logo on them. The trucks were donated to Eastern, with the university only having to pay for the decal on three of the four trucks because one was donated by the Alumni Association. Gloria Leitschuh, a professor in counseling and student development, said when she first started at Eastern in the 1990s, the university had a surplus of money. “Our function has reversed,” Leitschuh said, “rather than advising on how the money should be spent, we’re advising on how the money should be saved.” Because enrollment has gone down every year for the last ten years, and because of the state appropriation not giving Eastern higher amounts of money, Glassman said this is the reality. Glassman also said SafeWise released their ranking on the safest college towns in America, with Charleston being ranked second. This information is a benefit as Eastern markets itself because it shows parents of future new students that Charleston is a safe environment. Blair Lord, Eastern’s provost and vice president for academic affairs, said Kelly Miller has taken over as director of admissions following the departure of Kara Hadley-Shakya.

‘Song Stage Midwest’ season 2 is a wrap By Angelica Cataldo Entertainment Reporter | @DEN_news “Song Stage Midwest” concluded the filming of its second season Friday at the Doudna Fine Arts Center. The cast and crew had been filming content all week, but the filming of the entire performance portion of the show was done in front of a live audience on Friday night and will be broadcasted over WEIU-TV after editing. At Doudna, the cast and crew were provided with a green room for make-up, hair and clothing changes and filmed in the Black Box for material aside from the main performances. Producer Roy Wells and host Ryan Wiggins decided to bring “Song Stage Midwest” to Doudna through the recommendation of WEIU-TV’s publicity and outreach manager, Ke’an Armstrong. “(Roy and Ryan) came over and we gave them a tour and all put our heads together and decided it was a good partnership,” Dwight Vaught, assistant dean of the Doudna Fine Arts Center, said. “It’s an idea of us taking the capabilities of the Center and our people and pushing to the next level.”

Cedd the Light plays and sings his original song “Cool Breeze” during the filming of “Song Stage Midwest” in the Doudna Theatre of the Doudna Fine Arts Center Friday.
Each featured artist prepared two original songs to perform live and competed against one another in a span of eight different episodes. In each episode, two artists performed their material and then were judged by the audience with a text poll. The person the audience picked won that round and then qualified for the sec-
ond round of judging. The winners of the first round then competed against one another for a second round of eliminations until three finalists were left to perform what they felt was their best song of the two they prepared. From the final three, the audience then chose the winner.
The winner of “Song Stage” will be announced when the final episode of season two airs on WEIU-TV. The contestants of “Song Stage” came from a diverse background, with some of them never before performing for a televised contest. Song Stage, page 5

By Samuel Nusbaum Administration Reporter | @DEN_News The Office of Civic Engagement and Volunteerism, Student Government and the History Department are cosponsoring a Teach-In on current political issues to educate students on the upcoming election. History professor Debra Reid said she hopes the Teach-In will generate questions and discussion from the students who attend. The Teach-In will cover the history of the Democrats and Republicans. History professor Mark Hubbard will talk about the Republican Party up to the 1960s and Andrew McNitt, a political science professor, will cover the Democrats from 1965 to now. This will lead into a discussion of major issues and topics in this upcoming election.
2016 election
The issues they will cover range from Supreme Court nominees to appropriations for higher education to race issues and immigration. They will tie the issues into the parties by explaining how each party views each issue and their stances and solutions. “I think there is a lot of misinformation about what the parties really stand for,” Reid said. Reid said she hopes people can
make decisions based on facts, instead of emotions and rumors being taken as fact. Beth Gillespie, interim director of civic engagement and volunteerism, said the idea started in the spring with Student Body President Catie Witt helping students understand the impact of their vote with a voter registration drive. “My first time voting was when I was a college student and I walked by a voter registration booth and my friends were like ‘hey we should do this,’” Gillespie said. “I voted for that very first time. I didn’t know much about the candidates and where they stood and why it was important to use my voice.” Gillespie said the Teach-In will not devolve into a debate over which side is better. Rather, it will show the is-
sues from both sides and perspectives. Gillespie said it is critical for students to understand the issues. “Everybody is going to have different key topics that are going to be important to them…If you don’t know where your party stands, you could be voting for the wrong side for you,” Gillespie said. The event will end with Reid walking students through a gallery tour of parts of the Booth Library exhibit, “For All the World to See: Visual Culture and the Struggle for Civil Rights.” The Teach-In will be from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday at the Oakland Room in the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union.

The News BRIEFS welcomes New law teaches young drivers what to do during traffic stops AP Staff Report | @DEN_News The Daily Eastern News brought back the Associated Press service. This service will help the news staff include relevant state and local news in the newspaper, Editor-in-Chief Kalyn Hayslett said. “I believe it is crucial to resurrect this service, especially with the upcoming presidential election and with the current state budget crisis,” Hayslett said. Readers will be able to read a range of content on page two of every issue. “As a staff we will use news judgment when deciding which AP stories that will be published,” Hayslett said. She added that the use of AP service will not only benefit the readers but will give the staff a chance to develop a skill that most employers expect. Reporters will use the AP service to complement its local news coverage. “The service will not become a crutch or space-filler, but it will help the staff focus its attention on the local connections that are attached to the AP stories,” Hayslett said. The staff of The Daily Eastern News can be reached at 581-2812 or dennewsdesk@gmail.com.
CHICAGO (AP) — A new Illinois law aims to teach drivers how to act if they are stopped by a police officer. The measure comes amid increased tension in Chicago and across the nation over how traffic stops can go terribly wrong and turn deadly in the worst cases, the Chicago Tribune reported. The law targets the youngest and newest drivers, mandating that all
driver's education classes include a section on what to do during a traffic stop. The bill went quickly through the state Legislature and was signed into law by Gov. Bruce Rauner last month. Democratic state Sen. Julie Morrison, of Deerfield, who was a cosponsor of the bill, said it is more about common sense than innovation.
"Being pulled over by an officer is really stressful," Morrison said. "I think it's really important, especially in this time that we're in, that kids and new drivers learn what is expected when they are stopped by an officer, how to respond correctly, to be respectful, and hopefully that will make the encounter as least problematic as possible. I'm hoping it protects both the officer and the driver from things escalating."
Illinois inmates receive new space for mental health inpatient treatment SPRINGFIELD (AP) — Part of a mental health center in suburban Chicago is being repurposed to provide treatment to Illinois inmates who have serious mental illnesses, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration announced Friday. The move is part of a settlement from a 2007 lawsuit against Illinois that resulted in the state being ordered to provide better care for its mentally ill inmates. An agreement between the Illinois Departments of Corrections and Human Services will change two sections of the Elgin Mental Health
Center to accommodate 44 beds for inmates who require inpatient care. The transition will happen over the next four months, according to a copy of the agreement. Rauner’s administration hailed the plan as a positive step to improve how mentally ill inmates are treated. But the state’s largest employee union, which represents the workers at Elgin, says the change comes at the cost of beds that provide services to the public. “Prisons were not designed to be mental health facilities but we must adjust to this reality,” said John Bald-
win, director of the Illinois Department of Corrections. “This new inpatient treatment program will allow us to provide focused care for seriously mentally ill offenders and help them deal with daily stressors of a prison environment.” Rauner’s office says no service reductions to the public are expected and that civil patients currently in Elgin will have been discharged by the time the transition is finalized or transferred to other facilities in the state.

Students ‘Meet the Greeks’ at step show By Janet Pernell Multicultural Reporter | @DEN_News Six Greek organizations strolled, stepped and shimmied through McAfee Gym as students sang and danced with them in the stands Friday. The show was originally scheduled to take place in front of the Doudna Steps, however, as a result of rain, ince it was going to rain, students Greek members asked the students to move to McAfee. The step show had six of the nine organizations from the National Pan-Hellenic Council. The NPHC is a council of predominantly AfricanAmerican Greek organizations. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Zeta Phi Beta Sorority and Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority performed their routines to introduce themselves to the university as well as freshmen and other new students. After the show, students stayed in the stands and cheered as they watched all of the organizations stroll together on the gymnasium floor. Jarrett Moore, the president of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, said he wanted a lot of students, mainly freshman, to come and get introduced to each of the six NPHC organizations to see what each of them do. Jarrett Moore said his goals were to perform without any errors and to get the crowd engaged. He said he still anticipates performing in the show if he goes to graduate school next year. Jarrett Moore said the mes sage Omega Psi Phi wanted to send is that they may party hard, but they also work hard. “We got the highest GPA out of all the fraternities on campus right now, (and) we take a lot of pride in that,” Jarrett Moore said. Jamal Moore, a member of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and Jarrett’s brother, said the fraternity is looking forward to the feedback from students. “A lot of people have been saying, compared the other years, student involvement is decreasing, so we’re definitely looking forward to seeing how the students react and who came out to support us,” Jamal Moore said.

Zeta Phi Betas perform their routine during Meet the Greeks Friday in McAfee Gym. The show was moved from the Doudna Steps to the gym due to rain.
Jamal Moore said his goals for the show were to put on the best show Omega Psi Phi could and get student involvement back to normal. He said performing felt good. Though Jamal Moore normally does not like receiving attention, he enjoyed the audience’s support at the show. Jamal Moore said the fraternity only practiced the routine for about three or four days. Kyla Gipson, a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, said she wanted people to have fun with the sorority while they were performing. “I looked forward to the crowd,” Gipson said. “I wanted to see how people were about to get hyped and I wanted to see the energy of the crowd because if they are (turned up) then we will be (turned up).” Gipson said the message Zeta Phi Beta intended on sending was about how hard they work. “When you work hard you get good results, so that was one of the biggest things,” Gipson said. Jerome Montgomery, a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, said he wanted to show what the fraternity does outside of education. Montgomery said he wanted the crowd to have fun with them and get

to know the members of his fraternity. “Just for (students) to enjoy us and get to know us on a fun level and not just seeing us around campus as stuck-up Greeks,” Montgomery said. “It’s really just to get into it with the crowd.” Bria Caldwell, the first vice president of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority,
said she is ready for the new semester with her sorority. “We’re definitely coming out hard; we’re definitely coming out strong,” Caldwell said. Amanda White, the president of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, said she wanted everyone to have fun because the Greek system is meant to unite those in the black commu-
nity. “Tonight was to send a message that yeah, we may be small in numbers, but we got big hearts,” White said. “We go out, we make sure we work hard in everything we do and we just wanted to showcase that.” Janet Pernell can be reached at 5812812 or jopernell@eiu.edu.

Eastern Responds to Mother Nature
Abbey Whittington
Makeup is an underloved, underpraised form of art Symmetry, blending and contour are all three examples of vocabulary words for techniques and elements which can be found in art textbooks as well as when using makeup, but for some reason, many still do not consider makeup an art. Some may not consider makeup an art because many picture the craft as a sculpture or painting, but makeup can meet all of the same criteria of many artworks. Going to a drug or retail store, Sephora, Ulta or any other makeup shop to purchase beauty products is the same as when an artist is buying their art supplies. The only difference is one of their canvases happens to be a face. The artist goes to pick their brushes whether it is for blending foundation, concealer or eyeshadows, just like an artist would based on what medium they are using to create their work. These supplies are purchased by the artist based on the quality of the product, how the product will benefit or work on their canvas and the overall theme of their piece. Whether it is making eyeliner symmetrical to the shape of your eyes and/or eyebrows, contouring or highlighting your cheekbones or painting your lips, makeup techniques can be compared to a painter’s. Others may be critical of makeup being considered an art because of their own personal preferences to being natural and beliefs that others would look better or “more beautiful” without it. While it is okay to have a personal preference somewhere between getting into full drag or wearing a naked face, people should be accepting of whatever makes a person most confident and comfortable instead of telling someone the “right way” to be beautiful. It is also aggravating for those who are in the industry or enjoy doing a full face of makeup to hear that they look unnatural because, trust me, they are aware that their cheeks do not always glow with highlight or have multi-colored eyelids. There are also instances where people wear little to no makeup so they do not consider their routine an art. However, those who do take the time to do full faces of makeup and/or work in the industry should be given the credit they deserve. Just like any artist, whether the medium is clay, watercolors, acrylic paint, lipstick or eyeshadow, all share the same goals for the artist: self expression.

Staff Editorial
Learn from tragedies, help others understand Fifteen years ago yesterday, the shape of American life, politics, travel, culture and security changed irreversibly. We need not remind the reader what happened on Sept. 11, 2001. Instead, we would like to remind the reader what they should take away from a national tragedy and of how we should move forward as a nation and as individuals. Before the murmurs of “when can we just move on?” and “at what point can 9/11 become a regular day again?” grow too loud, The News would like to ask its readers to help future generations understand
why remembering 9/11 and understanding its historical significance is of the utmost importance in understanding what is currently happening at home and abroad. 9/11 changed how we look at terror and extremism. It changed how governments treat and examine their citizens. Culturally, Americans changed. We took to new value systems and began casting suspicious glances at people we previously did not mind or notice. All these effects, the good ones and the bad, are but the aftershocks following a single event. As students reporting for a student newspaper,
the staff of The News values education in all its facets. Holistic education, including education on current events and analysis of our daily lives, is something near and dear to us. We believe that, at this point in history and in this particular year, understanding 9/11’s effects is of the utmost importance. Please take the time to help the future’s citizens understand. Afterwards, we also suggest that you take a moment to enjoy the people and comforts in your life: they are not permanent. The daily editorial is the majority opinion of the editorial board of The Daily Eastern News.
Accept no excuse: study abroad if possible Studying abroad was never something I imagined myself doing while I was in college. I remember being in a class and listening to different testimonies describing how it was the “best experience of their lives” and how they “wished they could go back.” Meanwhile, I sat in class rolling my eyes at them. However, that changed the summer after my junior year. Two of my friends decided to study abroad in Ireland. Although I may have not given it much thought earlier, hearing about their experiences and seeing pictures sparked my interest. I began to attend informational meetings for the English department’s study abroad program in England. I was intrigued with the idea of going abroad for five weeks, but I still was hesitant in my decision. I kept making different excuses. I told myself, “I should spend the summer working instead of going abroad.” I also tried to let my fear of heights and planes keep me from fully committing to the program. One day, my parents sat me down and told me I had to study abroad that summer. To be honest, it scared me more than anything, but I knew I needed
Nicole Kink them to make the decision for me. If I left it up to myself, I would back out at the last minute. The days leading up to the trip, it still did not register with me that I was leaving. As I was packing, I did not feel nervous or excited…I felt nothing. That all changed when I landed in England. The bus from the airport to the manor completely changed my mind about the experience. It was surreal to look out the bus window and witness a complete change of scenery. The time I spent in England was unlike anything
I have ever experienced. Never in my life would I have expected to have an opportunity like that. I challenged myself to go outside of my comfort zone, and I ended up learning a lot about myself. I got to wander around England, Ireland and France with some of the greatest people I have ever met. As I reflect on the entire experience, there is nothing I would not do to go back again. Doing so allowed me to see the world in a completely different light. We got to witness a difference of culture and tradition, which is why I feel so adamant about students studying abroad during their college experience. It does not necessarily have to be internationally either. There are so many places here in the United States that is worth traveling and seeing. I know there are many reasons why people cannot study abroad, but if resources and funds present themselves do not hesitate when making your decision.

Letter to the Editor
Address the continuing problems at Eastern President Glassman’s State of the University address detailed many things. In addition to discussing his vision for Eastern and praising the accomplishments of our campus community, he stated: “I ask that you redirect your energy and passion with the same level of intensity and fervency that you displayed last year in campus rallies, letters and marches focused on funding EIU towards messaging efforts and campaigns focused on enhancing EIU’s positive image across the state as a wonderful, dynamic university to live and learn.” As someone involved in the FundEIU move-
ment, this was particularly striking, as President Glassman seems to be referencing FundEIU, UPI, AFSCME and others who have rallied for Eastern in recent months. The rallies, letters and marches focused on funding EIU served one goal: to do our part as students, staff, faculty and community members to fight for our school. However, it appears President Glassman is conflating a movement which, at its core, is seeking to preserve the amazing legacy and accomplishments of EIU, with a smear campaign. To be sure, being president of this university is
not an easy job. And certainly, Eastern’s recruitment mission is more difficult because of Illinois’ budget woes. But that does not mean we cannot fight for Eastern and showcase our victories simultaneously. Is it not part of Eastern’s mission statement to craft students into responsible citizens and leaders? Highlighting Eastern’s laurels is one thing. Asking everyone to enthusiastically sweep under the rug the real problems affecting EIU is another thing entirely. -Austin Mejdrich, senior political science major

Song Stage
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Certain artists had never performed or shared their original work for an audience. Many were musicians and singers deemed “undiscovered,” meaning not many people had heard of them or their music. Contestant Pha Thaprawa performed two pop songs that no one had heard before “Song Stage” except for her family and boyfriend. She comes from a highly musical background, having played the piano and singing from a very young age. “After this week of filming, I realized there are so many other talented artists that have way more experience than me,” Thaprawa said. Thaprawa said there was an intimidation factor but also said she was ready to step up her game for her performance. Contestant Christiana Ball, a former ser-
geant for the U.S Army, was the 2013 winner of Operation Rising Star, a singing competition for the U.S. military. Contestant Brian Locascio and his bandmate Rodd Fenton performed on behalf of their band Goodbye Gravity. Contestant Teri “Lyric” Green, a hip-hop artist and computer engineer who has been nominated for a Grammy, has performed in front of an audience of 20,000 people before performing on “Song Stage.” “I like to be an example for women and let them know it’s not where you come from, it’s where you decide to go,” Green said. Contestant Juan Luchini is a solo artist who has competed in music competitions before, back when he performed in Argentina. Contestant Cedd the Light came from a musical background as well. His music can be found on iTunes. Contestant Jessamyn Rains has an English degree, and a demo of her music is recorded on CD. She plays piano, guitar and the drums.
Contestant Dave Bartlett is a musician and songwriter who has previously played in bands when he was a teenager. For “Song Stage,” however, he took to the stage as a solo act. “Song Stage” was his first time performing in almost three years. The eight artists were not aware of who they would be competing against until they met for the first time last week for filming. When the season premieres on television, the 16 songs the eight artists perform will be available to listen to on songstage.tv. After wrapping up the filming, the content will be sent to postproduction for final edits before being broadcast. To find out updates on “Song Stage Midwest,” visit songstage.tv or follow the show on Facebook, and keep up with WEIU-TV’s schedule to follow the premiere of the first episode.

Soccer team splits weekend matches By Phil Delma Women’s Soccer Reporter | @DEN_Sports The women’s soccer team finished the weekend with a narrow 2-1 loss against IUPUI, before coming back with a convincing 3-0 victory against Northern Iowa Sunday. In the first half, the Panthers conceded a penalty after a foul in the box. The Jaguars’ goalkeeper Catherine Schmidt, however, had her spot kick saved by Eastern goalkeeper Sara Teteak. Sophomore Kayla Stolfa opened the scoring for the Panthers after a lofted through ball from red-shirt junior Emma Scaro set her free for a one-on-one opportunity in which she chipped the keeper moments after charging from her line. Jaguar Catherine Raster sent a cross in the 59th minute as Tori Minnich stuck the ball with her first touch to beat Teteak, before scoring a lategame winner herself in the 83rd minute, with forward Maryna Clark finding her on the edge of the box. Women’s coach Kiki Lara cited a slight lack of organization in the defensive, as well as fitness, playing a major role in carrying on their style of play for the full 90 minutes. Despite the congestive weekend, Lara believes that his roster is deep and mentally sound and locked in for the challenges the players are willing to take on. “We’ll lean on players that didn’t play a lot today, but we have players that are serious about recovering well,
and they have put in the work, and it shows they can play two games in three days,” Lara said. The Panthers, as of late, have conceded goals in the final 10 minutes or less in three instances — one against Bowling Green, and a two-goal run from Indiana State, with both games having events occur three minutes from the final whistle. Once the Jaguars scored their first goal, Eastern lost some focus on the field. “We kind of lost a little bit of organization after the first goal,” Scaro said. “We weren’t complacent, but we weren’t acting like it was 0-0, and that’s the mindset we should have had the whole game. It’s important to keep our attack going forward and our playing identities, which is possession up the field and to bring pressure.” Two days after their matchup against the Jaguars, the Panthers hosted Northern Iowa in what turned out to be a 3-0 thriller, with Teteak making six saves en route to a clean sheet. A refined Panthers’ offense was clinical in front of goal, with four shots on target out of the five taken. Despite having far fewer shots than their opponents, with 15 shots taken, efficiency was the deciding factor in the match. Eastern scored three goals altogether in their prior matchups before facing Northern Iowa. Stolfa, who scored in the game against IUPUI, turned provider when her cross from the left found senior midfielder Kathleen MacKinnon, who opened the scoring in the 17th minute.
JUSTIN BROWN | THE DAILY EASTERN NE WS
Sophomore Kate Olson kicks the ball away from a Northern Iowa player on Sunday. Olson scored a goal in the 49th minute on a header from Carrie Caplin. The Panthers won the match over Northern Iowa, 3-0.
Later in the second half, Northern Iowa conceded a free kick due to a handball. From the spot kick, junior defender Carrie Caplin sent a ball in the box, which found sophomore Kate Olson for a headed goal in the 49th minute. Seven minutes following Olson’s goal, the Panthers again created chances from the left side of the field. Soph-
omore Elisabeth Held provided a cross to freshman Sarah DeWolf which put the game out of reach to make it 3-0 in the 56th minute, with a fine finish. The Panthers’ work on both sides of the ball proved to be vital in their victory against Northern Iowa, especially after losing in what seemed to be a close game against the Jaguars just days before.
Eastern is now 2-5 for the season and will look to continue its rich vein of form as they face off against Marian University Sept. 19 at Lakeside Field in what will be the Panthers’ last game before the Ohio Valley Conference play begins. Phil Delma can be reached at 581-2812 or pdelma@eiu.edu.
Women’s golf team swinging into new season By Vincent Lovergine Women’s Golf Reporter | @DEN_Sports With the Eastern women’s golf season rapidly approaching, and the team coming off a struggling season last year, the Panthers will head to Murray State Monday for the Murray State Drake Creek Invitational. The 54-hole two-day event will take place at the Drake Creek Golf Course for the ninth time since 2009. The invitational will welcome five Ohio Valley Conference teams, including Murray State and Eastern. Austin Peay, Belmont and Tennessee State will be playing as well. Fort Wayne, Lipscomb, North Carolina A&T, Southern Illinois Carbondale, Western Kentucky and Akron will make up the rest of the field. Murray State took home the title at last year’s invitational with an 11-
shot win over Southern Illinois Carbondale. Dating back to last season, the women finished 10th out of the 12 teams in this two-day invitational with a combined team score of +94. “This tournament is going to be a little different because we are playing at a different course, but our preparations are always the s a m e ,” s e - Pickens nior Alexandra Pickens said. “Sometimes we give each other pep talks; other times we loosen up and try to remember to have fun.”
Pickens said with all the women returning from last year, the team’s overall mindset is no different heading into this season. Coach Mike Moncel is in his 17th year coaching at Eastern. This year will be his 15th year coaching the women after taking time off earlier in his career. Moncel has had a lot of success playing and coaching golf. He has had seven women win All-OVC honors and helped mentor eight state champions to his ledger. On several occasions, the members of the women’s golf team have been recognized for their hard work in the classroom and earning the best GPA out of all the Eastern sports teams. Coming off last season, Moncel knows his team can improve this season, along with what the women did to train for the season. “Everyone has individual con-
cerns, but they need to improve short game,” he said. “The desire is to play tournaments in the summer to get more competitive.” Even though Eastern’s women’s golf team has not had an All-OVC honors since 2009, Moncel seems poised he might end that drought this season. “We have a few ladies that if they play great, they can easily compete for a title,” he said. “But they all have work to do to get to that point.” Junior Anne Bahr from Boise, Idaho, had herself a very successful season a year ago. She placed in the Top 10 once, had the best par score of +11 and had the best average on the team at 82.61. While she had a strong sophomore season, Bahr looks forward to improving. “I think continuing to improve my mental game will be key for me this year,” Bahr said. “I believe this sea-

son could go really well if my mental game continues to strengthen and I don’t doubt myself when faced with a hard course or tougher round where things aren’t going my way.” The women will tee off Monday at 8:30 a.m. to play their first round of the season, and they will finish things up Tuesday at the same time. After the women finish Tuesd a y, t h e y Bahr will not play again until Oct. 3. Vincent Lovergine can be reached at 581-2812 or vplovergine@eiu.edu.

By Sean Hastings Sports Editor | @DEN_Sports Miami of Ohio out-rushed, outpassed and had 86 more total yards than the Panthers, but that did not matter in the final three minutes of Saturday’s game. Red-shirt junior quarterback Mitch Kimble marched the Panthers down the field with 2:35 left in the game, trailing by three points. With 56 seconds left in the game, Kimble found red-shirt running back Devin Church, and he maneuvered his way up the middle for a gamewinning 7-yard touchdown pass to win the game, 21-17. Turnovers were a big part of last week’s loss, and for Kimble, Coach Kim Dameron and the rest of the Panthers, the key for Saturday’s game was execution. Kimble threw just one interception while tossing three touchdown passes. Kimble has been in the spotlight for Eastern in the first two games, and his performance Saturday against Miami-Ohio earned him Ohio Valley Conference Offensive Player of the Week and also OVC Newcomer of the Week honors. He did not throw for nearly as many passing yards as he did against Western, but what mattered this time around was his execution. Kimble was 19-for-32 passing with 150 yards with three touchdowns and just one interception. Not only was the 6-foot-3-inch, 210-pound quarterback using his arm to get the job done, he even rolled out and picked up some rushing yards for the Panthers. He rushed for 49 yards, including a 14-yard pick up. Kimble was actually the Panthers’ leading rusher. Church had just 38 yards on the ground in 18 attempts. And red-shirt junior Korliss Marshall had 27 rushing yards. All of this happened after a lightning delay, which lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes, and it ended with Eastern getting its first Football Bowl Subdivision win since 2013 and the sixth win in program history. Eastern’s last win against an FBS

Red-shirt junior quarterback Mitch Kimble had 323 passing yards during the Panthers’ game against Western on Sept. 1. Kimble found Devin Church for a 7-yard score to beat Miami of Ohio Saturday in Oxford, Ohio. It was Kimble's first win as the Panthers' starting quarterback.
opponent was a 40-19 win against San Diego State. Things seemed to be falling apart when the Panthers went for a 29-yard field goal but could not get the snap down for junior kicker Nick Bruno to kick, giving the ball back to Miami with a 17-7 lead late in the third quarter. Luckily for the Panthers, Miami’s kicker Sam Sloman missed a 33-yard field, hitting the right upright eight minutes into the fourth quarter. From then on, it was all Eastern. “I truly believe that when you come from a program that has the
pride that this one has, there’s just something about it,” Dameron said. “These kids didn’t want to let anyone down. They wanted to get an FBS win, and that was one of those goals plus we had lost the last two games. Losing three straight is something that we didn’t want to do.” Eastern earned a big win over Miami Saturday, but it will not get any easier for the Panthers this coming week, as they will take on in-state rival Illinois State on their home turf.

Volleyball team winless in weekend tournament By Mark Shanahan Assistant Sports Editor | @DEN_Sports The women’s volleyball team came away winless in this weekend’s EIU Panther Classic. Drake, Bowling Green State and Louisiana Tech defeated the women on Friday and Saturday. Drake won in four sets, while the Panthers took Bowling Green State and Louisiana Tech to five sets. In the Friday matchup against Drake, Eastern dropped the four-set match by scores of 18-25, 9-25, 2523 and 25-13. The Panthers looked overmatched in the second set, scoring just nine points, but they came back strong and took the third set. Sophomore Taylor Smith added to her nation-leading triple-double total as she had 10 kills, 14 assists and 17 digs. Freshman Maggie Runge had nine kills and six blocks. In the opening match Saturday against Bowling Green State, the Panthers fell in five sets in a close game. Eastern dropped the first set, 17-25, and came back to win the next two, 25-22. Bowling Green took the next two sets by scores of 16-25 and 1315. In the final set, Eastern jumped out to a 7-5 lead, but Bowling Green

slowly worked their way back into the game to tie it at 11. The teams were tied at 13 before Bowling Green scored the final two points to steal the victory away from the Panthers. Red-shirt junior Josie Winner led Eastern with 12 kills in the
game. Smith had a double-double with 18 assists and 12 digs. Junior Maria Brown also had 12 digs in the match. The final match of the weekend for the Panthers was a rematch against Louisiana Tech from a week ago. Eastern fell in five sets by scores of 18-25,
19-25, 25-21, 25-23 and 2-15. The Panthers fell to 2-9 on the season with the three losses from the weekend. Coach Samantha Wolinski talked about what Louisiana Tech did in the fifth set, during which Eastern scored just two points.
“They just came out and brought it,” Wolinski said. “It was the same thing in the first two sets where they served aggressively and they got us in that first rotation; they just brought it with their serving. We just weren’t able to side out right away.” Smith had another triple-double in the game with 14 kills, 16 assists and 11 digs. Red-shirt freshman Gina Furlin earned her first career doubledouble with 21 assists and 10 digs. Brown also had a double-double with 12 kills and 14 digs. Wolinski shared what she said to her team after the tournament ended. “We grew,” Wolinski said. “We got better. We played so much better today than we did yesterday, and I’m proud of their fight and their resilience. We just have to be a little more precise and find a way to finish those sets to come out on the winning end.” Bowling Green was the tournament champion as they finished with a perfect record of 3-0. Drake took second with a record of 2-1 followed by Louisiana Tech (1-2) and Eastern (03). Smith was the only Panther to be named to the All-Tournament team.
