LETTER FROM THE EDITOR At about 9 p.m. Sunday, a fellow news editor and I emerged from the corner of the basement newsroom to venture out for cups of Red Mango. On the way, we looked up at the supermoon eclipse—then just half-dark and tinged a burnt orange. As my Facebook friends and my mother reminded me repeatedly, the phenomena won’t happen again until 2033. Through the light pollution of R Street, I wasn’t all that impressed. It wasn’t until I was back at my desk under fluorescent lights that I realized how nonchalantly I’d looked up and then right back down. I’m the girl who, at 8 years old, asked only for a telescope for Christmas. In elementary school, I’d bring pillows out on the porch on warm August nights and fall asleep looking up at the stars. Last summer, just before 4 a.m. at a dark campsite in Rocky Mountain National Park, I climbed out of my tent and laid in my sleeping bag on the picnic table. Above the mountain peaks, against a purely black sky, I watched one of the most impressive meteor showers in years. A month ago, the night before com-
ing back to Nebraska, I stayed up most of the night waiting for elusive falling stars. Sitting in the dark, quiet and watching - it was magical. But somehow on Sunday, walking on campus under a red, eclipsing moon next to a friend, I forgot to stop and look. Maybe I was thinking about all the editing I had left to do.
Or the test I had in the morning. Or the Chinese food I was starting to regret. Whatever I was thinking about at the time, I forgot to crane my neck back and think about how the sky has a way of making one feel small and at the same time, a part of something wide and expansive and
mysterious. I hope that you looked up on Sunday. And I hope you looked longer than I.

UNL TAs discuss challenges, rewards of job EMMA OLSON DN
A professor teaches a class to spread knowledge and understanding. A student takes a class to earn credit and learn. But what do teaching assistants do? Ryan Kephart and Sean Scanlon are teaching assistants for History 245: Modern America Since 1900. The two work with professor Tim Borstelmann to help run the class. This is Kephart’s second year on the job and Scanlon’s first experience as a TA. Kephart originally heard about TA jobs when his sister took one during her time as a graduate student. He knew about the jobs from his own undergraduate classes, which he took at Saint John’s University in Minnesota, and was then offered one when he applied for graduate school at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Kephart said he was drawn to the job because he loves teaching and this lets him do so. “I also really like helping students,” Kephart said. Scanlon also had known about teaching assistants when he attended Stonehill College and was offered a position when he joined the graduate program at UNL. Scanlon said he hopes to be a
professor someday, and this job helps him pay for school to reach that goal. Teaching assistants can be required to attend class just as a student would be. Scanlon and Kephart sit toward the back of class and take notes as a student would. “We take notes to compare to what other people do during the lecture,” Kephart said. They also monitor the class and contribute to the lecture with their personal anecdotes when they can. The TA positions require a basic knowledge of the subject and a willingness to learn alongside students. Individuals who agree to the job are often signing on to help with grading, putting together lecture PowerPoints, assigning readings, emailing students and assisting the professor in anything else they may need. “There are different extremes,” Scanlon said. When he told others he was contemplating a TA job, everyone he spoke with had a different experience. He said some people loved the job, while others had bad experiences with students or professors. Scanlon talked to others and found out the work he would be doing would be “very helpful to professors.” The two said that professors often communi-
cate what they need and then expect time management because teaching assistants are often grad students. Teaching assistants have very flexible hours that change based on the schedule of the class. “There are weeks when we put in very few hours, and then, one week we could put in a lot of hours,” Kephart said. The hours all depend on when things are due. Interactions with professors are interesting and all depend on the professor said Scanlon. “Graduate students are in a very strange place,” Kephart said. “We aren’t quite teachers, and we aren’t quite students.” Teaching assistants can be faced with the rough side of the job as well. “Failing students is really tough,” Kephart said. “When students come in with a failing grade, and you have to talk to them about why their answers aren’t good enough.” Kephart said this is his least favorite part of the job, and Scanlon isn’t looking forward to it. “Hopefully, they know we are here to help,” Scanlon said. Kephart added: “The door is always open.”

UNL to implement cloud-based printing system STAFF DN The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has a new cloud-based printing system this fall. With Print IT, students can now print from virtually any device in any location and pick it up at 1 of the 20 new Print IT kiosks on City and East campuses. According to Jon Wilson, communications specialist for Information Technology Services at UNL, Print IT was designed by ITS to make printing more convenient for students. Under the university’s old printing service, Uniprint,
students had to print from a lab computer. Now, the cloud-based printing service called InkCloud allows students to send in prints from their laptops, phones, cloud accounts and USB drives. All students have to do is upload their files to their INK Portal account and swipe their NCard at any of the tall, touchscreen kiosks on campus to pick up their prints. “We really think we’re offering a superior service to what Uniprint has been,” Wilson said. “We think it’s very promising, and we’re anxious to hear how students like it.”

Women’s rugby hosts alumni prom dress FLORA ZEMPLENI DN JoLeisa Cramer stood in a long silver dress on the green turf in the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Cook Pavilion Friday night, staring at the rugby ball in front of her. Women in prom dresses — made of satin, tulle, lace and sequins — stood around Cramer, waiting for her to take her kick. Cramer hiked up the floor-length dress, the satin fabric clenched in her fists above her hips, giving her the mobility to kick the ball. Kneehigh socks and athletic shorts peaked out under the fabric — a sign that these women who were dressed for prom were really there to play rugby. She ran up to the ball, took a kick and scored for her team in this year’s UNL women’s rugby team’s Alumni Prom Dress Game. “(The purpose of the alumni game is) just to embrace the fun spirit of the game of rugby,” Cramer said. “It was a fun way we could come together, play the current team and not be too crazy aggressive about everything.” Cramer, who received her undergraduate degree from UNL in 2008, has played in the alumni game every year since her last season on the team during 2009-2010, when she played as a graduate student. During the annual alumni game, the current women’s rugby team plays against a team made up of former UNL rugby players. “It’s kind of a joke that we have, that men created rugby, but women perfected it,” said senior and current team member Deanna Hobbs. Hobbs said the team embraces that sentiment by replacing their normal rugby attire with formal dresses. “It’s a very tough game, and so coming together as alumni and current teams shows the support that the entire program has moving forward,” Cramer said. “My favorite part is bringing the current members together with women who used to play rugby and then just sharing that bond of the overall sport and the game of rugby. Just that camaraderie.” This year’s game ended with an alumni win — 26-17. Alumni player Kate Wheeldon has played for the alumni every year since she graduated in
2010 and said that the alumni win almost every year. “This is our first game of the season, so this is the girls’ first real action game because we scrimmage in practice, but (it’s) nothing compared to the real thing,” Hobbs said. “It’s a good chance for them to get hit, see how it feels, get used to it. This game is kind of complicated, so when you start to get that real-life experience, it starts to get easier and easier and easier from there.” Wheeldon said that the alumni are able to help teach the current players throughout this game. “The alumni know what to do at every single break down of play,” Hobbs said. “Experience definitely helps when you play rugby.” Wheeldon said that the game remains competitive and ripping dresses is one of the tactics used. “Sometimes, you can’t grab them all the way down. You just rip the dress so you slow them down a little bit until someone else comes along,” she said. “It gives people a lot more to grab,” Hobbs added. Twelve minutes into the game, the first rip sounded throughout Cook Pavilion. “There went somebody’s dress!” a woman called from the crowd. At times the tears were just strips of fabric pulled off the dress or seams pulled apart so the fabric hung around the player’s knees. Later in the game, an entire dress was ripped off a player as she was yanked to the ground, leaving her lying on the turf in a black sports bra and shorts. She jumped up, tossed the dress aside and ran after the ball. “In rugby, you go and you don’t really stop for anything,” Hobbs explained. “(It’s what) you saw the alumni doing. They kept going. Going, going, going. That’s something we want to teach our rookies. That’s probably the biggest thing they can take away from this game, that the action never stops.” But one of the biggest parts of the game is having fun and bonding. In fact, Cramer said that the fun starts before the game, when the women go to Goodwill together to buy old prom dresses.

Laura Flores, a current University of Nebraska-Lincoln women’s rugby player, tackles alumni Calli Prell during the Alumni Prom Dress Game at Cook Pavilion on Friday, Sept. 25. Alumni players return on homecoming weekend every year to play this year’s team while wearing prom dresses. “(We) go shopping together, try them on, make fun of each other. You know, make a whole good time out of it,” she said. “It’s always fun to go shopping together at Goodwill for prom dresses. It’s a really good team bonding experience as well.” For many of the women, the team camaraderie means continuing to come back for the alumni
game. “Whenever I graduate, I will definitely be back for the alumni game,” Hobbs said. NEWS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

WICKI ALUMNI CENTER REPORTS THEFT
The UNLPD responded to a belated report of a theft at the Wick Alumni Center Wednesday, Sept. 23. Two areas behind the front lobby desk were damaged, and $280 worth of currency and stamps were missing.
PUBLIC INTOXICATION
Just before 3 a.m. Friday, Sept. 25, a non-UNL student was found passed out on the steps of the UNL Police Department. The person took “some hard nudging” to awaken, according to the report and was wearing disheveled clothes. The person registered a .191 BAC and was transported to The Bridge.
WOMAN REPORTS SEXUAL ASSAULT
Just before noon on Sunday, Sept. 27, a female student came to the front counter of the UNLPD station to report a third-degree sexual assault. The student reported that, while sitting at a picnic table north of Kimball Hall about 45 minutes earlier, an unknown male approached her and grabbed her on her right buttocks area above her clothing. She attempted to leave the area, but the male grabbed her around the waist before she was able to walk away. UNLPD and LPD officers checked the area but couldn’t locate the person responsible.
DUIS
Early the morning of Friday, Sept. 25 , a non-UNL affiliate, Michael Shambaugh-Miller, was pulled over for speeding.

Friday afternoon, another non-UNL affiliate, Matthew Pritchard was also pulled over for speeding and found to be driving under the influence of alcohol. Pritchard’s BAC was 0.179. He was cited and released for speeding and a DWI and released to The Bridge. NEWS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM ART BY MICHAEL JOHNSON | DN
Increase in drone use poses threat on Husker gamedays LINDSAY ESPARRAGO DN The use of drones during Husker football home games puts the safety of Memorial Stadium’s crowd at risk, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Police Department Chief Owen Yardley said. UNLPD cited three different people using drones to capture photos and video above the red sea of about 90,000 people during the last two home games. Yardley said UNLPD expected drones to start showing up at games since last year. Because of this, they have been attentive and on the lookout for people using the drones. The three individuals flying the drones during the game were not UNL students. The reasons for using the drones were both for commercial use and for hobby, Yardley said.

DRONES: FROM 6 states drones cannot be flown over crowds or stadiums. UNL’s director of federal relations Matt Hammons is working on developing the framework for drone policies on campus for students, staff and faculty. “It’s a challenge,” Hammons said. “Technology is advancing, but drones are still considered aircraft. We’re trying to figure out if the rules currently constructed are still appropriate and conform with the federal law’s rules.” Waite said students currently can fly drones as hobbyists if it is under 400 feet, during the day and within sight at all times. Hobbyists must also call the tower at the Lincoln airport if they are near campus. Flying drones as a commercialist is a different story. To fly a drone commercially, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle pilot training is required. Waite went through four months of preparation, 16 hours of ground school, 10 hours of stimulation and 16 hours of flight training to pass the FAA pilot license test. “Flying a plane and a drone are two different things,” Waite said. “One doesn’t translate to the other, but I now know a lot more about what’s required to fly in a restricted
air space. They’re not requiring anything like that for hobbyists…. The only thing you have is hope or a lick of common sense.” Hammons said he, Waite and Owens will continue to look at other university’s drone policies and decide what works best for UNL. While waiting for the finalization of the policies, Waite is also waiting to start his drone journalism lab back up this spring, now that he has his pilot license. Students will be able to plan and program the flight, but Waite is responsible for holding the controller in case of an emergency. Until then, Waite said he hopes hobbyists will ignore the temptations of Memorial Stadium for the sake of others and the reputation of drone pilots. “If someone is to get injured, there’s your global story,” Waite said. “The world’s media attention is not good for drone pilots. We’d be lucky if drones aren’t banned immediately… I’m asked when I will follow the wave of the Memorial Stadium crowd and I answer, ‘When I can be certain I will not injure one of my 90,000 closest friends.’” NEWS@ DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

Week five matchup score predictions STAFF DN
Brett Nierengarten, Online Sports Editor - Nebraska 31, Illinois 24
Josh Kelly, Senior Sports Editor - Nebraska 33, Illinois 20
If you would have asked me to pick this game after week three ,I would have said Nebraska by at least two scores. After Saturday’s game against Southern Miss, I look at Nebraska’s Big Ten opener much differently. The Huskers are lucky they get the Illini in their first conference road game because I am not sure how many teams in the Big Ten Nebraska can beat right now. I still think they will take care of business because the only legitimate opponent Illinois has played this year is North Carolina, and that game ended with a 48-14 loss for the Illini. Wes Lunt has been solid for Illinois at quarterback. He has completed more than 60 percent of his passes and has thrown for six scores. Still, Illinois is probably the worst passing team Nebraska will play all year, which is very good for Nebraska. Nebraska’s offense has been pretty good this year, and I do not think Tommy Armstrong will let the Huskers lose to Illinois, but this one will not be a blowout like the last two meetings between these schools.
A walk in the park, right? Well, after a subpar performance in nonconference play, the Huskers are in a rare situation where every team they face has a chance to win. That was proven in the 36-28 win against Southern Mississippi on Saturday, which should have been more of a walk in the park than it was. The pass defense for Nebraska has been horrendous, allowing more than 300 passing yards in each game this season. Illinois has an experienced quarterback in Wes Lunt, who is averaging 214 yards per game. While that number is not impressive, it should be higher after a duel with Nebraska. In the first Big Ten matchup of the season, Nebraska tries to keep the Illinois offense at bay as it still tries to find a way to convert on third downs. Quarterback Tommy Armstrong has another big day in the passing game, while the No. 1 running back on the team remains in question. The game will be close in the third quarter and a touchdown from Imani Cross will give Nebraska the lead. Illinois will try to hang on, but the offense makes a few costly fumbles later on. Big Ten game No. 1 gets crossed off the list.

Vanessa Daves, Football Beat Writer Nebraska 33, Illinois 28 Illinois barely defeated Middle Tennessee on Saturday. I am not kidding. For those of you who live under a rock, the fighting Illini were behind the entire game until their kicker scored a field goal, placing them a whole two points ahead of the Blue Raiders and giving them a 27-25 victory.. It is another mediocre team Nebraskans expect the Huskers to defeat, but going into conference play with a 2-2 out-of-conference record should leave you questioning what may happen. The Huskers tend to play to their opponents’ level. It is why Nebraska had a hard time maintaining the lead in the second half of the game against Southern Mississippi. This weekend, Nebraska will win, but much like the Southern Mississippi game, I am not sure it will be the win Nebraska fans want to see. If a blowout were to happen, there would need to be a handful of adjustments made that I am not sure can happen in one week. It is the first conference game, and on top of that, it is away. Those factors will come into play. Yes, Nebraska will bring home a victory, but much like the Southern Miss game, it won’t be the kind of win fans are hoping for.
Nick Wilkinson, Print Sports Editor - Nebraska 31, Illinois 21 The Fighting Illini barely escaped a 2-2 overall record Saturday against Middle Tennessee, winning 27-25 with a late field goal to give them the edge. Nebraska also escaped a not-so-close game versus a Southern Miss team that racked up 458 yards against them. Junior quarterback Nick Mullens was 26-41 passing with 447 yards and two touchdowns. That being said, Illinois junior quarterback Wes Lunt could run wild against Nebraska’s ever-struggling secondary. Although Nebraska’s secondary has had a hard time thus far, letting each opposing quarterback toss for more than 300 yards against them, Illinois let Middle Tennessee quarterback Brent Stockstill throw for 330 yards and three touchdowns. Both Nebraska and Illinois have a struggling ground game. Junior running back Terrell Newby is no doubt Nebraska’s starter, but Newby is still looking for his breakout performance this season. The Huskers have only experienced one away game this season. If their performance in Miami is any precognition to how away games go this season, Nebraska fans are in for a treat this Saturday. The Huskers’ second-half performance against the Hurricanes is still haunting my dreams. If Nebraska’s defense can grasp its true potential, it will breeze through Champaign with no problems. As unlikely as that is, Illinois will stick with Nebraska through all four quarters. If the Huskers’ defensive players give up more than 330 passing yards to Lunt, they may need to be stripped of their Blackshirts for the first time since Kevin Cosgrove stripped his Huskers of theirs in 2007.
Michael Dixon, Football Beat Writer Nebraska 35, Illinois 31 If we have learned anything about the Huskers through the non-conference schedule, it is that nothing will be given in 2015 — not even a trip to lowly Illinois. The Illini are bad, but things change when you hit conference games. Naturally, they are tougher. And naturally, games on the road can always be tough, too. That said, Nebraska should still win, but it might be much more difficult than anyone is willing to admit. Despite Illinois’ 3-1 record, quarterback Wes Lunt and Co. barely escaped Middle Tennessee, which missed a game-winning field goal in the final seconds, only a week after getting embarrassed by North Carolina. Lunt is solid, and statistically, Nebraska has the worst passing defense in the country. But that will not be enough to prevent Tommy Armstrong from exploiting a defense that gave 48 points in Chapel Hill. With Jordan Westerkamp and Brandon Reilly as his weapons, Armstrong has another chance to continue a solid stretch of play to begin the season. But while Illinois may be Illinois, it will not get any easier for Nebraska. With games against Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northwestern, Michigan State and Iowa still on the horizon, losing games like this would be disastrous.

John Cook thankful for fans’ dedication SETH OLSON DN Husker nation was decked out in red Saturday morning for the homecoming football game, but on Saturday night, 8,427 fans filled the Bob Devaney Sports Center with white Nebraska volleyball T-shirts for the Huskers’ second annual “White Out” match. The fourth-ranked Huskers fed off the lively season-high crowd as Nebraska (11-1, 2-0) swept Iowa for the second time in four days, 2510, 25-21, 25-18. “It was great to see 8,400 people in here,” Nebraska coach John Cook said. “The building felt great and the fans were into it. I always worry after a football game how our fans will be, but there was good energy, and our team was really feeding off of it.” Saturday’s “White Out” theme allowed the crowd to feel involved with the team they love to watch. Thousands of white T-shirts, emblazoned with the words “Destination Omaha” and a volleyball design inside an outline of the state of Nebraska, were laid out on the seats before the game for the fans to wear when they arrived. Although the T-shirts were just a simple token of thanks for Husker fans, Cook said it was important to help the fans feel close to their home team, which has a chance to make it to the Final Four in Omaha this season. “I think it is always great to honor our fans in any way we can and say thank you in those white shirts,” Cook said. “So hopefully, they feel a connection to Nebraska volleyball.” This comes after Nebraska’s move from the Cook Pavilion, where the Huskers were still having sellouts, but they were not doing as much with fans. Now, at the renovated Devaney Center, the Huskers have changed their ways. “I think for so many years we took our fans for granted,” Cook said. “‘We are selling out, so why do we need to do anything?’ But I think it is time to continue to thank them and make them feel appreciated.” While the white shirts worked well for the fans, Cook said the Huskers had a few problems
tracking the white volleyball, as it blended in with the all-white crowd. “It makes the place brighter too, so that was the interesting part,” Cook said. “I’m not sure it helps us from a visual standpoint, but I think our fans liked it, and I think the shirts were pretty cool.” What the Huskers did not have trouble with on Saturday was Iowa. In Iowa City Wednesday, Sept. 23, Nebraska struggled to contain Iowa’s two premier frontline players, junior outside hitter Lauren Brobst and sophomore middle blocker Jess Janota. In Iowa City, the two Hawkeyes combined for 27 kills and torched the Huskers, but in Lincoln, the Huskers held the two Iowa stars to 14 kills on .052 hitting. The containment of the Hawkeyes worked perfectly, as Iowa hit a measly .077, largely thanks to Nebraska’s improved blocking. On Wednesday, the Huskers tallied only six blocks, but on Saturday, Nebraska chalked up 10 total team blocks to stifle the Iowa attack. Much of Nebraska’s improved defense, specifically with blocking, can be credited to the stress the Huskers put on blocking after their road trip to Iowa. Junior outside hitter Kadie Rolfzen said that the extra time the team put into blocking leading up to the second straight match against Iowa paid off. “The only thing we worked on Wednesday and Thursday was blocking, and Friday we had a main emphasis with that as well,” Rolfzen said. “A couple of their hitters killed us, so we just pressed to do what we needed to do to keep them contained.” Rolfzen and her twin sister Amber combined for 11 blocks against Iowa, as the Twin Towers pooled together for 21 kills and 13 digs. Nebraska was well on its way to victory after a hot start in the opening set, as the Huskers hit .667 with no errors on 21 swings. Amber Rolfzen noticed the difference between how the Huskers played against the same Iowa team twice in a 96-hour period. “I guess the theme of this year is ultimate trust,” Rolfzen said. “We trusted our training, and we trusted each other, and it all came together really well today as opposed to Wednes-

Women’s soccer injury inspires team to work harder BECCA MANN DN Stadium lights, roaring crowds and the thrill of taking the field are what each Nebraska soccer player looks forward to when taking the field of Hibner Stadium for a match. After years of experiencing these feelings, they still look forward to the emotions that come with each game, knowing how quickly they can change. Friday night’s match against No. 12 Penn State started out like many previous games this season. An early goal during the sixth minute gave the Huskers a 1-0 lead over the Nittany Lions. Nebraska junior midfielder Caroline Flynn found her way past a Penn State defender and
scored the first goal of the game. The Huskers continued to maintain possession of the ball, looking to grow their lead. However, during the 10th minute of the match, everything changed. Nebraska junior forward Jaycie Johnson went down, grabbing her knee as she fell. She was helped off the field and did not return to the game. Throughout the second half of the game, the Huskers struggled to maintain possession of the ball. The Nittany Lions controlled most of the second half, pressuring the Huskers to make quick decisions with the ball. Johnson returned to the sideline on crutches shortly before the end of the game. Johnson was out for the night, but her spirit shined brighter than ever. After the 1-1 draw be-
tween the teams, Johnson joined her teammates as they chanted with the crowd. Sunday afternoon, the team achieved its first Big Ten win of the season. Although she was not able to play, Johnson did everything possible to stay involved both on and off the field. Johnson dribbled a ball during warmups, took part in team introductions and encouraged her team from the sidelines during every moment of the game. . Working together, Nebraska kept OSU scoreless throughout the entire game. However, fans could tell something was missing from the team. “We definitely had to step up. Everyone on our team increased their level of play today,” said Flynn. “Playing without Jaycie is definitely a huge loss, but we still have to keep doing what
we do.” Flynn knows too well the obstacles that come along with an injury like this. Flynn played in only four matches her sophomore year before suffering a season-ending knee injury at practice. After starting 18 games during her freshman year and logging two assists the following season, the injury came as a hard blow to Flynn. “It’s heartbreaking honestly. You go from playing the one game you love more than anything every day at practice and games and that can be taken from you in just one second,” she said. The injury inspired Flynn to work harder, coming back even stronger for the 2014 season.

Lia Baldo, a redshirt freshman, lost her friend and teammate in October of 2011. The loss of her friend changed her mindset in life with led to her aggressive work ethic. Baldo carries the bag tag of her late friend with her in her Nebraska bag.
NU soccer player remembers late friend’s kindness DAVID STOVER DN People often associate Vanessa Carlton’s song “A Thousand Miles” with a scene from the movie “White Chicks.” The driver in the scene counts off from the top: five, six, seven, eight. The ladies start singing in unison and pump their fists to the rhythm of the piano. As they are doing it, the sun shining behind
them makes them appear to glow in happiness. Husker redshirt freshman forward Lia Baldo, who once enjoyed the same song, can no longer listen to it. On Oct. 29, 2011, Baldo was a sophomore in high school playing league game with her team, the FC Sockers Chicago, in St. Louis, Missouri. The game was drawn out. The teams were at a stalemate and the game ended in a tie. Coach David Richardson, who had been Bal-
do’s coach for the last seven years, made a joke that seemed out of character. “Can I have some of your water,” Richardson said to Baldo, as he began to quiver. Baldo, who was taken back by his request, complied. “Everyone was on edge,” Baldo said. The parents slowly filled in behind their daughters to hear what the unsettled coach was going to say to his team.
Richardson was struggling to gather himself. “Girls, I believe we are a special team, and God put this team together for a reason,” Richardson said. As he continued to struggle with his words, he finally mustered up the courage to say what had been on his mind the whole day. “We lost Gina this morning.” Richardson was referring to a team member, 15-year-old Gina Giancola, who had taken her life
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2015 | 11
DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM the night before at her Arlington Heights, Illinois, home. Members of the Sockers were dumbfounded and parents began subconsciously embracing each other. Baldo’s cheeks were now drenched. A cloud of despair hung over the Sockers as members of the team held their loved ones a little tighter that night. “It brought the team closer,” Baldo said. “We’re family more than we are friends.” As Giancola’s family made arrangements, the Sockers came up with a memorial idea of their own to honor their well-liked teammate. For the last four years, 19-year-old Erin Bailey and her teammates have organized “Gina’s Gallop,” a run that raises money for a $6,000 scholarship. The scholarship is awarded to a student who
offers to help at Erika’s Lighthouse and the Catholic Charities Loss Program. Giancola was not a loner but a popular freelance friend. She was not exclusive like a 9-5 friend and did not pass judgment, which was why so many people gravitated to her. “My family’s crazy and fun, and she was so open to that,” Baldo said. Baldo’s father once bought her some organic food from Whole Foods that did not look appetizing to either her or her teammates, but her father was adamant that she had to eat it before the game. Giancola willingly tried it to alleviate Baldo’s embarrassment, and shared a laugh with her as they both slowly swallowed the food. “I’m telling you, one the funniest jokers you’ll ever meet,” Baldo said. “She’d always put a smile
on everyone’s face.” The laughs the two shared that day were only a microcosm of the laughs they had accumulated while listening to music together. Weekend soccer road trips provided the two teammates ample time to swap music, which mostly consisted of songs from their childhoods. Artists such as the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus would reverberate through the shared iPod headphones that got them ready for their games. But they loved to hear the melodic piano progression of Carlton’s song “A Thousand Miles.” It was their favorite song. “It still affects me today,” Baldo said. The song that once caused Baldo to share laughter with her teammate is no longer on shuffle in her iPod, and she always requests to change the
station when it comes on the radio. To remember her, Baldo placed Giancola’s nametag from her Sockers ball bag in her Nebraska bag. She looks at it briefly, and does not remember Carlton’s song but Giancola’s. She remembers the kindness she showed to her peers and the competitiveness that she helped cultivate within Baldo. However, there is one lyric that sticks out in Baldo’s mind. “I’d walk a thousand miles to see you.”

Kelly: Nebraska isn’t living up to potential Nebraska had a 22-0 lead at halftime. They could have been up 42-0 had they converted on three seperate occasions. JOSH KELLY DN Mornings can be a bear sometimes. Sometimes you wake up and aren’t prepared for the day. You go to sleep the night before and have a general idea of what’s going to happen the next day. Nebraska had more than a general idea of what Southern Miss was going to bring to Lincoln Saturday morning. The Golden Eagles scored 108 points in their last two games, but then again, they were against Austin Peay and Texas State. The defense also allowed 50 points last week in that Texas State game. They also had a quarterback in Nick Mullens who passed for more than 900 yards heading into Saturday. He should’ve been denounced as public enemy No. 1 by a defense that gave up more than 300 passing yards in each game this season. Yes, Brett Favre’s alma mater isn’t the worst team in the world. But they sure as heck shouldn’t have been a touchdown and two-point conversion away from forcing overtime in Memorial Stadium. The Huskers gave their predictable opponent an opportunity to stay in the game, and it started early. Nebraska had a chance to get going on the day, but the team time and time again, chose to hit the snooze button. Up 7-0 in the first quarter, the Huskers have already covered 45 yards and are in the redzone, facing a 3rd-and-5. Tommy Armstrong hits Jordan Westerkamp, but only gets a 2-yard gain. Snooze. It’s the second quarter and the team is faced with another third down in the redzone. 10 yards away, Tommy Armstrong connects with Stanley Morgan on another short
pass that fails to extend the drive. Snooze. On the next offensive drive, the team is close to the endzone. It’s only 3rd-and-5 at the 11-yard-line. This time, everything breaks down and Armstrong gets sacked for a 12yard loss. Sophomore kicker Drew Brown comes out for the third time in a row. Snooze. The Huskers were faced with two more situations where it was third down in Southern Miss territory, and yet, all three-pointers. A 22-0 lead at half sounds great, but imagine if it was 42-0 if Nebraska had converted on those third downs. It could’ve been the best half of football the Huskers have played under coach Mike Riley, but instead, the team chose to hit the snooze button and wait until later to seal the win. It was almost too late as it took a sack from Freedom Akinmoladun to keep the Golden Eagles at bay. Nebraska put off a lot of things in the 36-28 win on Saturday. If the team would’ve started off on the right foot that morning, the win could’ve carried on into conference play. Now, the best performance from nonconference play is a 48-9 win against South Alabama, a team that’s only been playing Division I ball for three years. The first Big Ten conference schedule for the new coaching staff begins next Saturday with a 2:30 p.m. road matchup against Illinois. “I am excited to get going with that,” Riley said. “It feels like that time.” It certainly doesn’t feel like that time as it’s been decades since Nebraska’s lost two non-conference games. Big Ten opponents will expose the same problems Nebraska has had, even more than Southern Miss did on Saturday. What’s going to happen when the defense faces quarterbacks Joel Stave and Connor Cook? Right now, it’s not looking good. For a team that’s given Husker nation one of the worst starts in decades, they have to treat this conference schedule as a clean slate. Now is the time to wake up. Stop pressing the snooze button.

Nebraska soccer earns first Big Ten win on the road Nebraska soccer earned their first Big Ten conference win on the road in Columbus. Nebraska is now 5-3-2 on the year. BECCA MANN DN Sunday afternoon brought sunshine, success and smiles for members of the women’s soccer team as it earned its first conference win of the season. Sunday’s matchup was the fourth game of Big Ten play for both Nebraska and Ohio State. The Buckeyes headed into the game after a 3-1 win against Iowa Friday. Ohio State forward Nichelle Prince was responsible for two of the team’s goals, bringing her goal count this season to five. Nebraska ended its game Friday night in a 1-1 draw with No. 10 Penn State. Junior midfielder Caroline Flynn scored Nebraska’s lone goal during the sixth minute of play. After junior forward Jaycie Johnson suffered a knee injury during the 10th minute, the Huskers began to lose offensive control. Johnson was helped off the field and did not return to the game. Penn State’s Emily Ogle found the back of the net in the 82nd minute to tie the game 1-1. After two scoreless overtime periods, the game ended in a draw. Heading into Sunday’s match, the Huskers were determined to find success during Big Ten play. Before the game against Ohio State, the Huskers had yet to win a game against a Big Ten opponent. Two early goals by Nebraska were enough to keep the team’s momentum rolling throughout the entire game. Junior Courtney Claassen connected with the ball during the fifth minute of play, scoring her first goal of the season. Claassen’s goal was quickly followed by a goal from Flynn, her third of the season, giving Nebraska a 2-0 lead against the Buckeyes. Senior Jaylyn Odermann assisted on both of Nebraska’s goals. The Huskers outshot and outscored the Buckeyes during the first half of the game. Nebraska kept its opponents scoreless heading into overtime. During the second half of the match, the Buckeye offense strengthened. By the end of the game, OSU held a 15-13 advantage in total shots and an 8-6 advantage of shots on goal. OSU’s Prince led the Buckeyes in shots on goal, registering three for the team but failing to connect with the back of the net. Johnson went on to save all eight of Ohio State’s shots on goal, raising her saves this weekend to 13 and earning her fourth shutout of the season. Flynn led the Huskers with four shots during the match, two of which were on goal.

Junior forward Jaycie Johnson went down Friday against Penn State, but remained helpful for the Huskers from the sideline. Her absence has caused a push from the rest of the offensive starters to score. Both teams spent most of the game utilizing long passes across the field rather than short movements. “Since legs were a little tired for everyone across the board, I think what was really good for me was getting the ball right at my feet,” Flynn said. Having control over the ball is what
helped Flynn lead the team to its now 5-3-2 overall record for the season. Next week, the Huskers will travel to West Lafayette, Indiana, to continue Big Ten conference play against the Purdue Boilermakers. For Flynn and the rest of her team, the key to success in this game, and many others,
is taking things slowly and putting the main focus on small areas of improvement. “Right now, we’re just focusing on us,” Flynn said. “We take each game one at a time, so we’ll look at video tomorrow, and then, go from there and see what we need to do.”

NU swimming-diving opens season with intrasquad meet TREV MCDIFFETT DN The Husker swimming and diving team began the 2015-2016 season with the Scarlet vs. Cream Intrasquad meet the night of Friday, Sept. 25 at the Devaney Natatorium. Husker fans had a chance to preview both squads before their regular season begins Saturday. Oct. 3 against Arkansas. The swimming and diving team added a little more flair to the intrasquad scrimmage than usual. Prior to the meet, the Scarlet and Cream squads squared off in competitive activities, including laser tag and a ‘minute to win it’ challenge. The Cream squad jumped on the opportunity, earning a 20-12 lead in the team bonding activities. Senior Taryn Collura brought her talents back into the pool, notching victories in the 50 and 100-yard freestyles. Collura joined freshman Morgan McCafferty, sophomore Jordan Ehly, and junior Erin Oeltjen to snag a first-place finish in the 200-yard medley relay. Collura and Oeltjen were also on the 400-yard freestyle re-
lay team with freshmen Lindsay Helferich and Kaylyn Flatt. They too were able to secure a win. If one thing stuck out to coach Pablo Morales during the meet, it was both the Scarlet and Cream 200 medley relay teams. “Putting together one team to go 1.46 is pretty good, but the fact that we were able to have two relays go 1.46 says a lot about our depth.” Morales said. “It’s a good result in terms of the depth. We have on our team, which is what we’re going to need to be competitive at some of these meets at the end of the year.” Senior Jacqueline Juffer raised some eyebrows in the Devaney Natatorium with a solid victory in the 100-meter backstroke. Ehly took care of things in the 100 breaststroke and 200 individual medley by securing victories in both. Junior Omaha native Anna Filipcic took home a victory in the one-meter dive, and freshman Kara Cottrell claimed a victory in the divers’ 50-yard freestyle event. Overall, the Cream team took home a 144.5105.5 victory in the preseason meet.

JOHNSON: FROM 9 Playing a sport that is as demanding as soccer makes the threat of injury very common. Taking time out of the season to recover from injuries is something many of the players are familiar with. Flynn and Johnson have played alongside each other every almost every season since they have been at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Before Flynn’s injury during the 2013 season, she helped Johnson score her first career goal in a 4-0 victory against Southeast Missouri. The two still look to each other during games for assists, encouragement and high-fives. They keep each other going even when the game, and life, gets tough. After Sunday’s match, Johnson huddled with the team. She once again participated in postgame cheering, and she accepted well wishes and handshakes as the team made its way to the locker room. If there is one thing that Flynn knows about her teammate’s injury, it’s that it will not hold her back from doing what she loves. “I definitely know how she’s feeling, but I have all the faith in the world that she’s going to come back stronger,” Flynn said.
