Lost in paradise: Huskers fall to Miami 36-33 in OT

DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Trying to understand what Nebraska fans want is a little like when your dog begins barking at you for no reason, so you walk around the house pointing at toys and treats asking “This? This?” and you’re only met with more barking. I was unable to watch the second rendition of what has been affectionately been donned the “Has Been Bowl,” but I was able to follow the Miami game via Twitter on Saturday in the stands at Kansas State. After Miami went up 14-0 in the first quarter, I could feel it coming. I knew it would happen soon. So, I refreshed Twitter after the touchdown, and sure enough, there it was, sitting happily at the top of my Twitter feed in all of its glory. “Bring back Bo Pelini.” A few minutes later, a few more Pelini tweets came. “I’d take nine wins and a (expletive) coach over this crap with a coach the media likes.” “Oh look, Youngstown is up 48-0. What could have been…” Before I have an aneurysm from ignorance and stupidity, let’s review real quick. Remember two years ago against Michigan State? Lost at home 41-

28. When I walked out, murmurs of “We just need to fire Bo Pelini” spread through the crowd like a bad cold. Remember two weeks later? Lost at home again, this time to Iowa 38-17. “If they want to fire me, they can fire me,” Pelini said in his press conference. And some of you were tickled at that idea. Let’s go back even just nine months ago. Nebraska gets killed at Wisconsin. Fire Bo Pelini Facebook pages went up. And a week later, after the loss to Minnesota, he was all but written off. So, then you get want you wanted. Bo is fired and leaves, along with a streak of nine-win seasons dating back to 2008, a streak only held by Nebraska, Alabama and Oregon. Now, it’s September in Mike Riley’s first season. Nebraska is down 14 at Miami in the first quarter. And we’re really going to do this again? Nebraska fans are on a fast track to being known as the fanbase who stands in the corner plugging their ears and stomping their feet until a coach makes them nationally relevant again.

The rational of “Bo Pelini isn’t good enough, fire him” and “Mike Riley can’t play with Bo’s scraps, fire him” is so incredibly naive and shortminded; it’s embarrassing. Beyond the “bring back the Osborne era” mantra held by Husker fans, I don’t get it the cynicism. Maybe I never will. But I followed the game on Saturday on my phone standing in the student section of Kansas State and thought about KSU coach Bill Snyder. Snyder’s first seven years, he went 46-33. Nebraska fans would have

crucified him. But since 2010, K-State has 47 wins, one conference title and one BCS bowl appearance. Nebraska has 48, zero and zero. The beauty of K-State’s football program is patience, and if Nebraska wants it, it needs to sit and wait, instead of barking up the wrong trees.

Best, Chris Heady

Students protest victim-blaming at 5th annual SlutWalk LINDSAY ESPARRAGO DN

Claire Baweja stands in front of about 50 people on the north steps of the Nebraska State Capitol. She tells them to hold 10 fingers in the air. For every statement you identify with, put a finger down, she says. “I want to have sexual interactions.” Several in the crowd fold a finger into

their palm. “I have tattoos and piercings.” More fingers go down. “I have friends who have sex.” Most just have a few fingers still extended. “If you have any of your fingers down, you’re a slut,” Baweja says, scanning the faces of the crowd. The people, ranging from high schoolers

to adults, many dressed in nothing but a bra, a short skirt and heels, gathered and cheered at the insult. Because here, on this day, on the steps of the Nebraska State Capitol, “slut” is not an insult. It is a word to reclaim. To redefine. Saturday marked the fifth annual Lincoln SlutWalk, an event to raise awareness about sexual assault and victim blaming.

Baweja, a senior nursing student and an organizer of SlutWalk, used the 10-finger elimination game as a way to prove a point. The crowd marched around downtown Lincoln while waving signs that read “My dress is not a yes,” “Girls just wanna have FUNdamental rights” and “Here’s a thought: blame the rapist.”

International students enjoy Husker gameday crash-course Big Red Gameday Experience teaches international students rules and traditions associated with Husker football EMMA OLSON DN

Though the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s second home football game of the year against the South Alabama Jaguars was just a normal game day for most Husker fans, 151 international students spent the day learning everything they could about American football. The breakdown of football came as part of the Big Red Gameday Experience, an event put on by New Student Enrollment. NSE has been running Big Red Gameday Experience for the past decade. Each year, the NSE team tries to make the event bigger and better to cater to more students. Teresa Lostroh, international orientation leader, said the department tries to assist students in any aspect of life they might need help in while attending UNL. Lostroh said she enjoys showing students

Berhe said the biggest thing was “to scream and cheer when we scored or else people would look at you like you were the enemy!” Lostroh said the most important thing the international students can learn is the UNL culture. “It’s not necessarily the importance of them learning about football as a sport,” Lostroh said. “It’s more about (the students) learning about football as part of the Nebraskan culture, and that’s our intention.” Lostroh said this event helps students develop school spirit and a sense of identity as Huskers. “You can’t really have the typical UNL experience without experiencing Husker football.” Haimanot said that this experience did nothing but enhance his experience of learning overseas. “(I learned) to keep an open mind and experience new things,” Berhe said. “You’ll never know what you like until you try it, or try to watch it in this case.”

PBA, Haymarket Park to continue alcohol ban KELSEY CONNELLY DN

Despite support of implementing a new policy, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln will continue its ban on alcohol sales at Pinnacle Bank Arena and Haymarket Park during Husker sporting events. Both PBA and Haymarket Park host events that serve alcohol, but currently do not serve alcohol at any university-affiliated events. In April, the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska encouraged officials to implement a policy that would allow alcohol sales at PBA and Haymarket Park during events. Despite ASUN efforts to implement a new policy, the ban remains in place at both PBA and Haymarket Park. “The choice is up to the university, and we respect their decision,” PBA general manager Tom Lorenz said. University alcohol policy is under the control of UNL athletic director Shawn Eichorst, UNL administrators and the University of Nebraska Board of Regents. Though not recently discussed by ASUN, alcohol sales at Husker sporting events continues to be a debated topic. “From a safety standpoint, this is a sticky situation,“ ASUN Campus Life and Safety Committee chair Taylor Schelstraete said. “On one hand, it would ensure students 21 and older could stay for the entire sporting event and not leave to drink elsewhere, but on the other hand, it will do nothing for students who are minors.” Schelstraete said she also worries that alcohol sales could encourage minors to binge drink before games, posing serious health

risks. Supporters of the ban, including Schelstraete, believe implementing a new policy that would allow alcohol sales would change the atmosphere at Husker events. “Nebraska fans are notorious for their hospitality of other teams,” she said. “While alcohol doesn’t have an ill effect on everyone, it can cause some individuals to be boisterous and say things they wouldn’t normally.” The ban helps the university maintain its “Nebraska Nice” status, Schelstraete said. The current ban has also raised questions about PBA possibly losing revenue because of the lack of alcohol sales, but Lorenz said that PBA has not expressed any concern on the issue. “We have made no speculations over loss of money due to the ban of alcohol sales,” he said. While alcohol sales remain prohibited at UNL, other universities in Nebraska, including University of Nebraska Omaha allow drinking at sporting events, another issue often brought up in the alcohol sales debate. The debate may gain more attention as universities around the country implement policies allowing alcohol sales at university sporting events. Yet, the University of Nebraska Board of Regents and athletic department officials continue to oppose alcohol sales in hopes of discouraging underage drinking and maintaining a family-friendly atmosphere at Husker events.

UNL professor demonstrates love for insects

TYLER WILLIAMS DN

On the second floor of Entomology Hall, tucked in a small corner office, sits a man with a small brown box. In the box are several vials, all of them opaqued by hundreds of brown dots — ants —as the tiny builders scurry up the sides. Entomology Hall receives a box like this about once a month, but this box is different. It was special ordered to ensure the ant farm in the college is nice and full for Sunday’s BugFest. The man carefully picks up vial after vial from the box. Tap, tap, screw and like a waterfall, 10s of writhing ants come tumbling out of the vial and into a clear plastic container. The ants join their miniscule mates in the container, covering a chunk of apple and a wet paper

towel. The man is entomologist, professor and fly fisher Thomas Weissling. Weissling has a master’s from Colorado State University and a doctorate in entomology from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. However, Weissling was not always academically minded. In his third year of undergraduate, Weissling found himself on academic probation and thought that semester would be his last. He decided to take an entomology class, so he could look at bugs up close and learn to tie his fly fishing bait more effectively. But something amazing happened: he passed.

Weissling did so well in class that his grades rose to almost straight ‘A’s for the first time in two years of college. “OK. That’s it. Maybe I should do entomology,” Weissling said to himself after that. Weissling said the science and the teaching go hand in hand; going out and learning about insects, then coming in and talking about them to students, scientists or anyone in between. After receiving his doctorate, Weissling focused on doing field research. As an undergraduate, Weissling worked in his professors’ labs studying insects and loved it, but he has

always felt it is important to be involved in teaching, which is why he always wanted to work at a university. His first job after receiving his doctorate was with the University of Florida at Fort Lauderdale, where he was able to teach small night classes as a postdoctoral research associate. After that, he did research on fruit tree pests in Yakima, Washington, before returning to Ft. Lauderdale, where he was an assistant professor for several years. He

send a copy of them to your landlord. And always take pictures when you move out.” Winkle said students are often mistaken on when Landlords are required to return a security deposit. Landlords are required to return a security deposit within 14 days of a renter’s written request, not 14 days from when they move out, another common misconception. New renters are also advised to pay close attention to their leases, especially if they are renting from large realty companies that are not centered in Nebraska, Stall said. “They are presenting leases that are long,” Stall said. “Twenty-five page leases. And they don’t necessarily comply with Nebraska law. Students are signing these leases and they don’t even bother to read them.” When students fall in this situation, Stall recommends following Nebraska law, which has a statute that says you cannot sign a lease that gives up the rights guaranteed in the landlord tenant code. “Just because you put it in the lease doesn’t mean it’s in compliance with Nebraska law,” she

said. “If the lease conflicts with Nebraska law, the statutes win. Stall suggests students look at their leases with a critical eye. Winkle recommends students not sign a lease until viewing the apartment first. “That way they know exactly what the condition is that they’re getting,” she said. “If there is anything done that they’re not happy with, you can always ask the landlord to add an addendum onto the lease stating, ‘And this will be fixed by this date and this will be cleaned by this date.’” Most landlords have copies of leases, and renters are able to take it home and read it over. Renters also have the right to ask to add anything to the lease they feel is fair. For students who want to make sure they agree with their lease, UNL Legal Services suggests bringing it to them for a lawyer to read through.

SLUTWALK: FROM 4 Chants of “Yes means yes and no means no. HEY HEY! HO HO!” and “Whatever we wear, wherever we go, yes means yes and no means no!” drowned out the rest of Lincoln’s downtown buzz, aside from the occasional honking from drivers passing by. This was the group’s way of standing up and speaking out, which is exactly what needs to be done, said Abi Swatsworth, the president of OUTLinc, Lincoln’s LGBT community. “Sexual violence happens everywhere, but we’re not teaching what consent is or how to talk about it,” Swatsworth said. “We have to make a commitment and make a difference. We can’t pretend it’s not happening. We have to be willing to share our stories.” And that is what the participants did.

They shared their stories. One by one, those who felt courageous enough walked up the Capitol stairs, took the microphone and spoke to the crowd of unfamiliar faces. An independent hip-hop artist from Frankfort, Kentucky, Phoebe Huxleigh, took a stand to talk about a time she was drugged and taken advantage of. “I was roofied, and I have friends who have been roofied,” Huxleigh said to the crowd. “Any time you’re at a bar or a party, I encourage you to be suspicious of that man that drags that girl that is too drunk out of the building. Offer to take care of her instead.” In addition to taking action in social settings, people need to take verbal action and think about the language used and how it is

used, Huxleigh said. “No more of the phrase ‘friend zone,’” she said. “Using ‘slut’ is a way we shame those people who will sleep with us. Using ‘friend zone’ is a way we shame those people who will not sleep with us.” Junior advertising and public relations major Jhalisa Robinson shared her story of being sexually abused as a child in an article published a few days before the SlutWalk. Robinson found that the SlutWalk was the crucial part of her healing process, she said. “It is sad that I am more comfortable talking to the people at SlutWalk than I am talking to my own mother,” Robinson said. “But finding a way to tell it… letting people know and making people aware… that’s what’s im-

portant.” Swatsworth said she expects to hear of thousands of rape cases in the next year, but with effort, some can be prevented. “Talk to your friends,” Swatsworth said to the participants. “Ask why they aren’t here, and then make them come next year. You have the power.” The signs, the outfits, the walk and the sharing are all part of educating the community and leading people to think critically about sexual assault. But it is about what is done every day, not just one day, Baweja said. “Let’s not let this movement end today,” she said.

that, he said. The department is busy with several projects relating to research, public education and student education. Beyond that, it is an opportunity to familiarize the public with the human resources within the department, such as professors, technicians and graduate students and give them a chance to see and touch a wide variety of insect species. This year marked the sixth BugFest, and Weissling said it seems like it gets bigger and bigger every year. The event began as a collaboration with the Lincoln Children’s Zoo to

introduce children to insects. The children’s zoo program has ended, but the department itself maintains the event as an opportunity to educate the public about insects and entomology as a scientific field. At BugFest, members of the Lincoln community parade through the long corridors and twisting stairways of Entomology Hall, room after room to interact with and learn about bugs in exhibits – from display cases full of colorful beetles and butterflies commanding crowds of curious children to cramped, clinical

research labs full of plastic containers of pests and their larvae. Participants learned about resistance research, watched scientific illustrators drawing insects and learned about the varied and important roles insects play in their daily life. “There is a lot more going on than just teaching in a classroom,” Weissling said.

Vanessa Daves, Football Beat Writer - Nebraska 31 Southern Miss 10 Southern Mississippi defeated Texas State 56-50 last Saturday. You know what that tells me? 1. Southern Miss just barely beat a sub-par team, and 2. The team rely on their offense. If two teams are reaching the 50s in scores, it’s evident that it’s purely an offensive game. That means Nebraska should score a lot against Southern Miss’s defense (or lack thereof), right? Wrong. Let’s remember that Nebraska’s highest score this season was 48-9 against South Alabama. Other than that, it was 28 points against BYU and 36 points against Miami (and 23 of those

Newby. As for the defense, defending the pass will remain to be an issue. So far this season, Nebraska is averaging 357 passing yards per game. That average will go down, but not by much, as Southern Miss quarterback Nick Mullens has passed for at least 275 yards in the first three games of the season. The Golden Eagles will get away with some big plays here and there, like all of Nebraska’s opponents have so far. Nebraska seals it midway through the fourth quarter after another connection with true freshman Morgan Jr. The Huskers will come out of non-conference play 2-2.

points were scored in the fourth quarter). Nebraska’s offense lacks consistency. In the first game, we saw quarterback Tommy Armstrong utilizing the passing game, which the coaching staff later admitted was more than they wanted to see. In the second game, Terrell Newby dominated the field, gaining nearly 200 rushing yards and becoming a fan favorite. And against Miami last Saturday, we saw a little bit of a mixture. Newby wasn’t playing much, and there were a variety of wide receivers making plays. On top of that, our secondary needs some work stopping those long passes. Yes, Nebraska will win, but not by a large margin.

Brett Nierengarten, Online Sports Editor - Nebraska 52, Southern Miss 34 This is a trap game; this is a trap game; this is a trap game. No, Southern Miss is not that good. But this isn’t the same USM team that won three games last season or the one Nebraska beat 56-13 in Lincoln two years ago. This Golden Eagles team can score. They’ve put up 50 and 56 points in their last two games. Granted those two games were against Prairie View A&M and Texas State, but still quarterback Nick Mullens threw for 333 yards and Jalen Richard ran for

230 against Texas State. And we all know how Nebraska has been against the pass this year. They are allowing 310 yards threw the air per game. Mullens averages more than 300 yards a game. Luckily for Nebraska, Southern Miss doesn’t play great defense. They allowed 50 points to Texas State and 34 to Mississippi State in week one. Nebraska should be able to do pretty much whatever they want on offense, but Southern Miss should move the ball efficiently as well. This will be a shootout and Nebraska needs to be very careful in this one.


DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM Nick Wilkinson, Print Sports Editor - Nebraska 38, Southern Miss 10 Fifth-year senior quarterback Dak Prescott of Mississippi State had one of the worst showings of his career at Southern Miss in week one. He completed 22 of his 38 passes, 58 percent, for 237 yards and a pair of touchdowns as the Bulldogs defeated the Golden Eagles 34-16. Prescott and Nebraska’s Junior quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. are very similar as of right now, both quarterbacks have 66 completions on 110-120 attempts. Armstrong has recorded 9 touchdowns with 4 interceptions, while Prescott has scored 5 touchdowns with no interceptions. What does this mean? Armstrong has to deliver the ball more carefully down the stretch of the season. Versus Miami, Armstrong threw three picks, including a careless ball near the Miami end zone. In the second half at Miami, Ne-

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 2015 | 11 braska proved they are no Mississippi State. Armstrong carried his team down the stretch to overcome what looked like a blowout by the Hurricanes. Armstrong finished with 309 yards passing and three touchdowns. The Huskers ultimately fell to Miami 36-33 in overtime, but the Huskers showed fans a glimpse of their full potential. The Golden Eagles have reached 2-1 before their trip to Lincoln this Saturday, their only loss coming to Prescott and the Bulldogs. The Golden Eagles’ junior quarterback Nick Mullens has a 64 percent completion rating heading into the Nebraska match-up. If Mike Riley and company want to even out their record before Big Ten play they will have to stick with the secondary they used against Miami in the second half, keep junior Terrell Newby, who averages 6.2 yards a carry, on track for success and make sure senior offensive lineman Alex Lewis keeps his cool.

Michael Dixon, Football Beat Writer - Nebraska 42, Southern Miss 17 Even sitting at 1-2 for the first time since 1981, things could be much, much worse. Anyone who has paid attention to college football in recent years knows Nebraska should win handily, but things have gotten progressively better for Southern Mississippi since its last trip to Lincoln in 2012. Back then, the Eagles, who had essentially surrendered their half of a home-and-home series with Nebraska because of financial struggles, were coming off an 11-2 campaign capped with a conference title. Yet, in the three years since, the Eagles have gone 0-12, 1-11 and 3-9. Now, in 2015, Southern Miss is an

optimistic 2-1, averaging 41 points a game. Not bad, and numbers that could worry an Nebraska defense that’s given up 300-plus passing yards in each of the first three games. But in the end, a loss would go down as a stunning upset. Coach Mike Riley’s in crisis-management mode and losing to the Eagles is nearly unimaginable. Along with running back Terrell Newby, quarterback Tommy Armstrong should have an enjoyable morning, especially against a defense that just gave up 50 points to Texas State. Nebraska takes an early lead and cruises comfortably into conference play at 2-2. SPORTS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

“That was a day where it was something we were not used to,” Wilson said. “There was no faucet you could turn on full power.” Wilson said it was amazing for her and the student-athletes to see how level-headed the locals were in a situation they saw as stressful. “Things that ruffled our feathers, absolutely did not ruffle theirs at all,” Major said. “It is just pick up and keep going for them.” Whenever there was a chance, Major said the people in the village helped the volunteers. That meant helping with the concrete, bringing food to the group and making sure the needs of their guests, the volunteers, were met before theirs. Burling said it was good for the studentathletes to see the locals’ ability to adapt to anything that happened; that is a skill translatable to the field or any area of life. Major said the trip was full of those moments. “We learned a lot about what it really takes to be happy,” Major said. “The opportunities we have here are not universal at all.” Major said the group asked a local woman if she had ever been to America. The woman responded, “Only in my dreams.” Major said she complains a little bit less now. Seeing her peers mix concrete until their backs gave out, and watching the people who they were helping help them just as much were some of the experiences Major said she won’t soon forget. “There are much bigger things going on in the world, so it is much easier to catch yourself worrying about the little things,” Major said.

Burling and Wilson agreed that the trip is something the Life Skills Program will continue in different places, with different groups. “It will be a different story for the athletic department but the same concept,” Wilson said.

Potential Olympians Looking to Lead NU TREV MCDIFFET DN

Get ready Nebraska, the 2015-2016 swimming and diving season is upon us. This year, the women of the swimming and diving squad are looking beyond just competing for a conference championship; some have their sights set on making it to the U.S. Olympic Qualifier. The Olympic Swim Trials will be held in Omaha, Nebraska, at the CenturyLink Center in June next summer. It is the third consecutive time the trials will be held in Omaha. The diving trials will take place in Indianapolis during June of next summer. Coach Pablo Morales has faith the Huskers could get some swimmers a chance to qualify. “That’s a part of what we’re committed to because for our student-athletes that’s a dream come true for them,” he said. Morales was an Olympian himself, winning three gold medals and a two silver medals in two appearances for the United States in 1984 and 1992. One swimmer Husker fans could see in Omaha is senior Taryn Collura. During her junior campaign, Collura had 17 top five finishes and eight wins along with an unforgettable performance at the Big Ten championships where she secured three top 20 finishes. Collura and her teammates look to continue to build on their success from last season. “We just want to get closer to that NCAA(championship) meet. We want to score some more top eight finishes at Big Ten meets and hopefully make the NCAA (championship) meet,” Collura said.

Looking to join Collura at the top is senior Alexandra Bilunas from Omaha. Bilunas notched 12 top five finishes with four victories during her junior year and finished 15th in the 50-yard freestyle at last year’s Big Ten championships. Collura and Bilunas can both definitely be looked at as two of the most dominant swimmers on the team and possible Olympic qualifiers. Both of the seniors will be setting a high standard for the very talented 2015 class, which includes Jacqueline Jeschke. The Georgia native comes to Lincoln with quite the resume. During her stint at Aiken-Augusta, Jeschke was ranked nationally in the top 10 five times and made finals at Junior Nationals. While at Aiken-Augusta, Jeschke dominated the record boards setting 50 school records. Jeschke was also qualified for the 2012 Olympic Trials. Morales said he has high hopes for the freshmen. “She has the experience to not only train but compete against top level competition,” he said. Joining Jeschke in the freshman class is Morgan McCafferty. Coming from Reynoldsburg, Ohio, McCafferty has proven to Morales her ability to become a valuable contributor to the 2015 Husker squad. On the diving side, Nebraska returns NCAA qualifier Anna Filipcic. The Omaha native has qualified in each of her first two seasons. In 2015, Filipcic had 11 wins and 19 top five finishes, including finishing third in the one-meter and three-meter dive at the Big Ten championships. The journey for the Husker swimming

NU Cross Country shows potential in home opener CHRIS BRUMMETT DN The men’s cross country team won its second meet of the year at the 26th annual Woody Greeno/Nebraska Invitational on Saturday, Sept. 19 morning at Pioneers Park in Lincoln. At the first hill of the race, juniors Peter Spinks and Jacob Olson, as well as sophomore Austin Post were all bunched together in a group at the front of the pack. Spinks eventually separated from the group for most of the race before running out of gas toward the end of the race and rejoining the other Huskers in a group of four as they took spots for fourth through seventh. Redshirt freshman Wyatt McGuire led that group of Huskers with a time of 25:25.5. Spinks admitted to using a little too much energy at the start of the race. “I went out a little too quick, but I tried to hang on toward the end. Overall, we did really well as a team.” The men’s team finished with 16 points, 30 points better than Air Force who was in second place. The women’s team didn’t have as good of a morning as the men’s team. The team ended up with a third place finish.

The team was missing junior Anna Peer for the second meet in a row. The team is going to have to be able to compete without her for the rest of the year as she will be redshirting the 2015 season with a back injury. Sophomore Bonnie Smith was the best runner for the Husker women as she finished fifth overall with a time of 22:29.3. The next closest runner was sophomore Haley Harsin, who passed two runners with a burst of speed on the final stretch and ended up finishing 13th overall with a time of 23:02.8. “They’re just so young, but they’re improving individually. The ones that were freshmen last year and sophomores this year improved their marks from last year ’s race. I think good things are coming, but we’ve got a ways to go. I just think that the attitude and the desire is there with this group, and that is going to pay off big,” said coach David Harris. Harsin looks as though she will be a key runner on the team for the next couple of years after finishing as the second best Husker runner at the Augustana Twilight this year. The women’s team was never able to get a pack together at any point in the race. Early in the race, the team got separated as the

Life and Wrestling: Father’s values remain driving force CODY NAGEL DN

It’s May 16, 2003 in Willingboro, New Jersey. James Green and his two sisters Autumn and Heaven return home from school. Green picks up the phone to call his parents just as he would any other day. After getting off the phone with his mother, he calls his father, but he doesn’t answer. “OK, he must be busy,” he thinks. Time passes and he still doesn’t answer. Later that day, the phone rings. Green is shocked by the news he receives. Suddenly, the day is not like any other. James Green Sr. was killed. Police said the other man got in an argument with Green’s father about money for rent and studio fees, and the man shot Green’s father in the stomach. The shooter was convicted of second-degree murder and is serving 25 years to life. “It was definitely tough,” Green said. “It was a difficult time; it made us stronger in the family.” His father was a native of Jamaica who had moved to Brooklyn as a teenager and married a New York woman. Shortly before his son was born, James “Country” Green Sr. had opened a recording studio in Brooklyn. Green Sr. helped a lot of people trying to make it in the music business. One of those people he was trying to help became his murderer. Green was heartbroken; in an instant, at 10 years old, he was now the only man in the house. When Green was young, Green Sr. introduced him to the sport of wrestling. They were both new to the sport but fell in love with it. As one was learning, so was the other. Green Sr. motivated his son to be the best he could be. He took him to as many tournaments as he possibly could. He would even make Green practice against kids who were older and bigger than him. Although Green would cry when the bigger kids beat him, Green Sr. knew it would make him better against kids of his stature. Without the support of his family, Green may have never wrestled again after his father passed. “He would always take me to tournaments, so I knew that if I kept wrestling he would have been happy,” Green said. To continue wrestling, Green had to quit football and track. His mother simply didn’t have the time to take him to all of the events. One of Green Sr.’s friends, Bob Acosta, made sure the wrestling community saw the talents of Green. Acosta would drive an hour from his home in Somerset, New Jersey, to James’ house. He would take him to practice in Blairstown, New Jersey, an hour and a half north from Willingboro. “It was great; he’s been a big part of my life, and he’s still apart of my life right now,” Green said. “He was at the World Championships. He just wants the best for me.” However, wrestlers don’t come from South Jersey. “It is definitely not a wrestling community, so that was awful,” Green said. “Always having to go out of town to try and get some good workouts with good partners.” In his senior year of high school, Green became the first wrestler from his school to win a state title, posting a 29-0 record. His presence in the wrestling community across the country was finally known. Everything from the precious time spent at tournaments with his dad to wrestling kids much

While at Nebraska, James Green earned the title of NCAA All-American four times. Green finished his career with 129 wins, the fifth most in school history. He currently stands at No. 1 in the United States in the 154 lbs. weight class. bigger than him to the countless hours riding to practice, it culminated to a scholarship at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. *** Coming from Sicklerville, New Jersey, Jordan Burroughs was sharpened and fortified into the wrestler he is today. A two-time NCAA champion at Nebraska, and now a four-time gold medalist in international competition, Burroughs has proven he is one of the best wrestlers in the world. After graduating, Burroughs returned to Nebraska to help the Huskers train during the season. One of his sparring partners was James Green. There is a sense of respect Green and Burroughs have between each other. “Both of us coming from New Jersey, we have something to prove to the wrestling community,” Green said. In his time at Nebraska, Green never won a NCAA title, but he was a four-time NCAA AllAmerican and the 2014 Big Ten Champion. Last year, Green missed making the U.S. national team by one match at the World Team Trials. At the 2015 World Wrestling Championships, Green overcame an unfamiliar wrestling style and

won the bronze medal for the 70 kg weight class, the finest achievement of his career. “I was extremely proud of (Green),” Burroughs said. “He went from never being a national champion in college to being the third best wrestler in the world in his weight class.” With his first medal in international competition, Green said he is driven to earn more. “I haven’t made it to the top yet. I’m still looking for that gold,” Green said. “I want to leave a legacy. I want to be the best I can be.” In the team locker room, Green notes there is a list of what it take to be a top-international wrestler. Listed at the very bottom is ‘Four Gold Medals.’ At 27, Burroughs accomplished this after winning the 74 kg weight class at the World Championships. The success Burroughs has had is exactly what Green wants to achieve. Green’s father used to tell him, ‘never give up and always compete with the person next to you.’ “He’s won two national titles, and now, he’s on his fourth gold medal,” Green said. “I still have some proving to do it only adds fuel to the fire.” Burroughs has noticed the kind of character Green is. “As a 22-year-old young man, he’s done great

for himself, and now, has the ability to lead the lifestyle that he desires,” Burroughs said. “He surrounded himself with a lot of amazing people that have helped him reach this point in life.” Green currently trains with Burroughs and mimics his lifestyle when it comes to wrestling. “I want to be in the mix up there with some of the best,” Green said. “If you don’t want that, then I don’t know why you are doing the sport.” Green expects to wrestle as long as he can and win as many gold medals as he can. “He has a whole year to recollect, refocus and recreate some of the magic he has this year,” Burroughs said. “But accompany that with more experience, more technical savvy. He deserves to win.” The values that Green’s father lived by have accompanied Green throughout his own life. “I just keep in mind what he always preached to me. You know, hard work, make sure you are not slacking or behind,” Green said. “Make your presence known, and make sure you’re heard.”

Women’s tennis face early struggle in Mizzou Invite DAVID STOVER DN The Nebraska women’s tennis team began its 2015 season in Kansas City, Missouri, competing in the Missouri Invitational this past weekend. Four teams competed in the weekend’s competition with Louisville, Penn State and the tournament host Missouri. Nebraska began its tournament by having to adjust to the tournament’s change in venue because of weather conditions, which moved the matches to Kansas’ Overland Park Racquet Club in. Nebraska junior Lisa Andersson got the Huskers off to a great start on Friday, Sept. 18. Andersson earned two doubles victories and one singles victory. She also earned another doubles win with her counterpart senior Maggy Lehmicke, on Saturday, Sept. 19, which was her fourth match victory of the weekend. Andersson and junior Mary Hanna were the only Nebraska pair to beat the Louisville, as the fourth declining Nebraska teammates could not beat its oppositions. Nebraska made up for its struggle by defeating Penn State in two out its three doubles matches. Hanna and Lehmicke highlighted Nebras-

ka’s doubles performances by winning, 6-2 while freshman Vasanti Shinde and Andersson gave Nebraska its second doubles defeat against Penn State. The Huskers finished their Friday with six victories with three doubles and three singles. Nebraska began Saturday only winning 2 of its 6 doubles matches, as Penn State won the doubles series two, one. Lehmicke and Andersson held their own against the Nittany Lions in the No. 1 spot while sophomore Katerina Matysova and Hanna defeated Missouri juniors Brittany Lashway and Cassidy Spearman. Nebraska’s struggles carried over to singles competition where the team lost all seven of its matches against Louisville. Four of the matches went to three sets. In extra singles, the Huskers were able to secure three more victories; giving them a total of six on Saturday. Nebraska senior Mackenna Maddox-Herr had two singles victories against Missouri freshman Turner Yates and Penn State sophomore Hannah Kratky. Nebraska freshman Elizabeth Gould also earned her first collegiate singles victory against Kratky.
