Leaders plan to improve shuttle By India Miraglia asst. copy editor

Syracuse University’s Student Association will use student feedback to develop possible changes to the Euclid Shuttle program introduced last year, SA leaders said. The Euclid Shuttle was launched as a pilot program at the beginning of the spring 2018 semester. The service has continued this semester with the same schedule and route. Former SA President James Franco worked to develop the shuttle during the 2017-18 academic year to help improve student safety on and near campus. He discussed the initiative during the transition between the two legislative sessions, SA President see shuttle page 4

Syracuse poverty rate rises despite US decrease By Casey Darnell asst. news editor

The number of Syracuse residents living in poverty increased slightly despite both national and state decreases in poverty rates, according to new data released by the U.S. Census Bureau. Syracuse’s poverty rate in 2017 rose to 32.4 percent from 32.1 percent in 2016, according to Census data. This marked the third consecutive year that the percent of Syracuse residents living in poverty has increased. The new census data makes Syracuse one of the top 10 poorest cities in the United States,

tying with Bloomington, Indiana and Dearborn, Michigan at No. 9, according to Syracuse.com. About 41,650 people in Syracuse lived below the poverty line in 2017, according to Census estimates. The poverty rates in the nation and New York state both decreased by 0.6 percent, per the Census data. About 13.4 percent of Americans lived in poverty in 2017. Children under the age of 5 are among the groups that suffer the most from poverty in Syracuse, with 50.1 percent living below the poverty line in 2017. Among city residents under the age of 18, 47.4 percent lived in poverty last year. The proportion of Syracuse

residents with incomes below the poverty line is highest among the city’s black and Hispanic residents. In 2017, 58 percent of Syracuse’s Hispanic population lived below the poverty line, up from 40.5 percent in 2016. The percent of black people living below the poverty line dropped 2.4 percent from 2016 to 40.7 percent. About 25 percent of white residents lived in poverty in 2017. The jump in poverty among Hispanics living in Syracuse comes when that number is decreasing in both New York state and the nation. The percent of Hispanics with incomes below the poverty line in the state dropped 2.4 percent to

21.8 percent in 2017, and decreased to 19.4 nationally. The median household income in Syracuse in 2017 was $35,568, per Census data. That is roughly half of the U.S. average household income of $60,366. For college graduates with a bachelor’s degree or higher, the poverty rate was 13.1 percent in Syracuse. Albany’s poverty rate dropped from 23.9 percent in 2016 to 21.9 percent in 2017. The city of Rochester’s poverty rate remained at 32.3 percent during the same period. In New York City, 18 percent of people lived in poverty in 2017. cdarnell@syr.edu @caseydarnell_

news editor

Editor’s note: This story is part two of a weekly series tracking Syracuse University’s Invest Syracuse initiative. Syracuse University has begun schematic design work on an addition to Link Hall that will house the College of Engineering and Computer Science’s student support services, an SU official said in a campus-wide email last week. Funding for the project was inspired by the Invest Syracuse initiative, a $100 million fundraising plan announced in July 2017. The Bill and Penny Allyn Innovation Center, which will be built on Link’s south side, will become the building’s new primary entrance,

said Pete Sala, SU’s vice president and chief facilities officer, in the email. The innovation center will house the College of Engineering and Computer Science’s recruitment, advising, course support, research and internship services, according to an SU fundraising document. The university hoped to begin construction on the center in June 2018, according to the document. The center will cost $6 million, College of Engineering and Computer Science Dean Teresa Dahlberg told The Daily Orange in February. Bill and Penny Allyn, two SU alums, donated $2 million to help fund the construction of the new center, per a January SU News release. By January 2018, the university had raised 70 percent of the funding needed for the con-

struction of the center. The College of Engineering and Computer Science’s retention rate is about 80 percent over two years, Dahlberg has said. She also said she hopes the career and student services housed in the center will bump up the college’s retention rate. Only about 30 to 50 percent of engineering students currently use those services, Dahlberg said in February. Six teams of College of Engineering and Computer Science and School of Architecture students helped design the center as part of their capstone projects, according to the SU News release. Each team worked with faculty and was required to design its project around sustainable building requirements and Americans with

Disabilities Act regulations, per the fundraising document. The Allyns’ donation came through SU’s Invest Syracuse fundraising initiative. The initiative aims to improve SU’s student life, academic and financial aid offerings, and includes projects such as the Euclid Shuttle, the Graham Fitness Center and the expansion of the Counseling Center. Invest Syracuse will be funded with $30 million from a new tuition premium, $30 million in “administration spending” cuts and $40 million in fundraising between 2017 and 2019. All first-year students will pay the annual $3,300 tuition premium beginning in the fall 2018 semester. jmulle01@syr.edu @jordanmuller18

Democratic primary

Rachel May, an SU staffer, beat incumbent Sen. David Valesky (D-Oneida) by a slim margin in Thursday’s Democratic primary for New York’s 53rd Senate District, according to Syracuse.com. The 53rd Senate district covers most of Syracuse, all of Madison County and two towns in Oneida County. May pushed a progressive vision during her campaign for the Syracuse-area seat and defeated 13-year incumbent Valesky by less than 1,000

votes, per Syracuse.com.

shuttle Ghufran Salih said, but not extensively. The shuttle takes students around University Hill areas such as Euclid Avenue, Ostrom Avenue, Marshall Street and Westcott Street. It makes stops near several residence halls. The Euclid Shuttle is funded by Invest Syracuse, a $100 million initiative to improve academics and the student experience, among other things. SA Vice President Kyle Rosenblum said he believes there are issues with the operation of the shuttle that need to be addressed if it is to continue to service the Syracuse community. Rosenblum said one issue with the service was that usage of and knowledge about the shuttle was fairly low. Advertising the shuttle will be a main part of future updates to the initiative, he said. The vice president said posters outlined the shuttle’s route last semester, but the posters didn’t give exact times of service. He added that the lack of information could have negatively affected the number people who rode the shuttle. “The Euclid Shuttle won’t be an effective program until we can actually have consistent and widespread usage of the shuttle,” Rosenblum said. A revised program would ideally consist of permanent signs and schedules marking the location of each stop, Salih said. Salih said she believes students might forget about the university’s free transportation on campus because of the popu-

Six SU residence halls were among the ten most popular Uber destinations in Syracuse from June 2017 to June 2018, the company’s first year operating in the city. Three of the dorms included on Uber’s list — Brewster, Sadler and Lawrinson — are serviced by the shuttle. Rosenblum and Salih said that the process to update the Euclid Shuttle program is in its early stages. The two SA leaders said they will spend the next few weeks reaching out to students to gather opinions about the shuttle, both how it worked last year and what students would expect from it this year. They will also discuss issues with the shuttle internally within SA, Salih said. After connecting with the SU community, Salih and Rosenblum will meet with SU’s Parking and Transit Services to discuss possible improvements, Salih added. Other changes to the Euclid Shuttle suggested by Salih and Rosenblum included adding more trips, updating the routes and having the shuttle available throughout the week. The shuttle currently makes 10 runs per night. It operates Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays between 10:30 p.m. and 3:25 a.m. Rosenblum said the pilot run last semester was a good start to a program that still has room to grow. “A trial run is always going to have its ups and downs,” Rosenblum said. “It was good to get it up and running in the sense that now we can work on improving it.” irmiragl@syr.edu | @IndyRow

3 takeaways from New York primaries Members of Greek life shouldn’t be complaisant H ere are three major takeaways from the most surprising, and not surprising, results of the 2018 New York state primary elections.

Syracuse University staffer could be headed to Albany

New York state Sen. Dave Valesky, who was criticized by fellow Democrats for working with Republicans in Albany, was defeated by progressive Rachel May on Thursday. May, the coordinator of sustainability education at Syracuse University, ran an ambitious campaign against the entrenched senator, who had held the seat since 2004. May defeated Valesky by 606 votes in the 53rd state Senate district, which includes Madison, Oneida and Onondaga counties. There are more than 600 absentee ballots outstanding, so results are still not official. The Republican nominee for New York’s 53rd district is former Syracuse GOP Chairwoman Janet Burman. Valesky may still appear on the November ballot, having won the nomination of the Independent and Women’s Equality parties.

Comptroller Robert Antonacci. Both ran unopposed in Thursday’s primaries, so a new face will be representing a portion of Syracuse and Onondaga County in Albany.

NOT ENEMIES BUT FRIENDS

50th district will have new state senator

State Sen. John DeFrancisco (R-50th district) earlier this year announced his intention to retire. He had previously launched a bid to unseat Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) in 2018, before dropping out of that race. The senator currently represents much of western Onondaga County, including the northwest portion of Syracuse. The last time he faced a Democratic challenger was in 2012. At the conclusion of that race, DeFrancisco received a whopping 85.9 percent of the vote. But Democrats are now hopeful the national “blue wave” may help them carry the 50th. The Democratic nominee to take DeFrancisco’s seat is John Mannion, a biology teacher at West Genesee High School. His Republican opponent is Onondaga County

Cuomo squashes progressive insurgency

Cuomo decisively beat the challenge posed by progressive Cynthia Nixon. The race attracted national attention, and Nixon racked up support from prominent progressives including Alexandria OcasioCortez. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), though, a nationally recognized progressive, did not make an endorsement in the race. Cuomo touted his achievements as governor and ultimately won with more than 60 percent of the vote Thursday. May was just one of a half-dozen progressives to defeat Democratic incumbents on Thursday night. Andrew Cuomo may keep the governorship, but the balance of power in Albany has still shifted to the left. James Pezzullo is a junior public relations major. His column appears biweekly.

s a freshman, I’m new to the college experience. But I’m not new to hearing stories about Greek life. I saw the video of the University of Oklahoma Sigma Alpha Epsilon chapter performing a racist chant in 2015. I heard about Timothy Piazza’s death at Pennsylvania State University. And I saw the Theta Tau videos before I chose to attend Syracuse University. I have now seen the Zeta Beta Tau video. Universities across the country have established social health programs to educate students about sex, drugs and alcohol. Institutions also work to address Greek life-related problems. They can always do more, but some responsibility rests on students. Issues with fraternities or sororities may pop up across the country because students in Greek life aren’t being checked by their own brothers or sisters — simple as that.

But ultimately, it’s up to the students themselves to decide whether or not they want to take that information and apply it in their own lives.

n Sunday, students and their friends came together to celebrate Syracuse University’s annual Juice Jam Music Festival. Featuring lively performances by co-headlining artists A$AP Ferg and Playboi Carti, the concert — hosted by University Union — brought in a raucous crowd, excited to rap along with two of the hottest artists of 2018. This year’s lineup was particularly groundbreaking as it featured two artists who are popular but are not often listened to in mainstream rotations. UU’s headliner choice was an acknowledgment of the rising popularity of rap music as a genre. Opening for A$AP Ferg and Playboi Carti, Anne-Marie, Loud Luxury and

Omar Apollo each gave solid performances. Apollo, a singer-rapper from Indiana, was the first act slated and kicked off the show with songs from his latest album, “Stereo.” Loud Luxury, a dance duo, came to the stage with a high energy set to get students moving. Anne-Marie, a singer with top hits on U.K. singles charts, capped off the opening performances with her smooth voice and poppy bops. Playboi Carti came out with high energy in his performance. Rapping along to the audio of some of his hit songs like “Magnolia,” “Half & Half” and “Poke It Out,” he hyped up the crowd, inciting mass jumping, waving and screaming. While his performance started off exciting, he abruptly left in the middle of his set due to a malfunction with the main speaker. Before leaving, he made sure to let his fans know it see juice

T-Pain electrified SU crowd Syracuse Challenger Baseball league finishes 36th season By Sarah Slavin asst. copy editor

On Saturday night, T-Pain electrified Syracuse University students with his lively dance moves and entertaining stage presence. He danced to his music with popular moves such as flossing, shooting and goth dancing. He ended the night with fans wanting more. T-Pain and Zaytoven took the stage in Goldstein Auditorium to perform for the National Pan-Hellenic Council’s annual Greek Freak concert. The event started at 7 p.m. when students started filling the floor of Goldstein Auditorium. DJ Zel and performer Magic were on stage hyping up the crowd. At about 8:15 p.m., Zaytoven, a producer and DJ, took the stage and performed his first song and then proceeded to talk to the audience. After, he would say “one, two, three,” and then had the audience respond with “trap.” Right before Zaytoven left the stage, his hype-man made an ode to Hurricane Florence and other social problems in a short speech urging the crowd to take action. He said “make sure you do something constructive every day,” and also gave a shoutout to Zaytoven’s upcoming movie “Birds of a Feather 2,” which is about his life and is expected to be released near Halloween. Close to 9:15 p.m., T-Pain took the stage in checkered pants. He was greeted by a roaring crowd. He opened with “Roll In Peace (Remix),” originally by Kodak Black featuring XXXTENTACION. He then performed “Booty Wurk (One Cheek At a Time).” A few songs later the audience went crazy for two of his hits: “Buy U A Drank (Shawty Snappin’)” and “Blame It,” the Jamie Foxx’s from page 7

juice jam was “nothing personal against you guys,” and said he hoped that “this doesn’t happen to the next artist that comes up here.” After the disappointment over Carti’s decision simmered down, members of the UU staff came on stage to energize the crowd before A$AP Ferg. Luckily for fans and UU, A$AP Ferg came out with a dynamic set that lasted more than half an hour. He warmed up the crowd with familiar songs from his latest mixtape, “Still Striving,” with featured performances including “Trap And A Dream.” He continued to energize the crowd, telling them their energy was a “seven out of 10” before going into classic cuts from the A$AP Mob. His performance

song featuring T-Pain. Because T-Pain was popular when current college students were much younger, hearing the hits resonated with them. Freshman Haniyah Philogene said she was reliving her childhood. “I listened to T-Pain when I was like eight, and I loved it. And I also think it’s an experience. So I’m like ‘Why not?’ You know it’s something to do,” Philogene said. T-Pain kept the audience engaged by telling them to put their hands up and even did the popular “floss” dance. “I’m a big fan of T-Pain and I was really happy that Syracuse was able to get him to perform here,” sophomore Sarah Schulman said. “I went to Joey BadA$$ last year and it was pretty cool, so to be able to do that again is a really cool experience.” The crowd was hype for “Booty,” “I’m Sprung” and his most recent hit, “Dan Bilzerian,” featuring Lil Yachty. T-Pain also sang his remix of “Bartier Cardi,” by Cardi B and featuring 21 Savage. T-Pain didn’t sing his hit “Best Love Song,” which Schulman said she was excited to hear. At about 10 p.m. the crowd started dwindling but some fans stayed to listen to some old hits of T-Pain’s. He sang “5 O’Clock,” “Kiss Kiss,” which is Chris Brown’s song featuring T-Pain and “All I Do Is Win,” DJ Khaled’s song featuring T-Pain and various artists. He also did a cover of “Low” by Flo Rida. But he ended off the evening with the song “All The Above” by Maino, which features T-Pain. When T-Pain left the stage, the crowd started chanting for an encore, but he didn’t come back. The lights came on and students filed out. srslavin@syr.edu

of “Yamborghini High” and “Shabba” helped get the crowd up to a nine before taking a moment to pay respects to his late group mate and “brother,” A$AP Yams. After taking this moment, he came back with increased momentum, performing his hit songs “Plain Jane” and “Work REMIX.” While it wasn’t a perfect event, it was successful in bringing the students and the community together for a day of partying, dancing and good times. In what was an extremely hot and sweaty day, Juice Jam quenched students’ thirst for solid rap acts many have been wanting for the past few years. Hopefully, with increased considerations for a variety of featured acts, the event will get better and better with time. Jalen Nash is a junior political science major.

Nicole Taylor’s son, Brennan, is 11 years old and has been diagnosed with autism, cerebral palsy and a form of epilepsy, a disorder in which nerve cell activity in the brain is disturbed, causing seizures. When he was younger, Brennan had up to 200 seizures per day, Nicole said. Now, on a good day, he has fewer than 10. Brennan is a member of the Syracuse Challenger Baseball league. “He doesn’t get many opportunities outside of school to meet friends,” she said. “A lot of kids his age go to a friend’s house. He doesn’t. This gives him a chance to hang out with his peers and have some fun with them. I think that’s his favorite part, just being able to be a kid.” Syracuse Challenger Baseball league, started in 1982, has swelled into the largest baseball league for children with disabilities in the United States, with 280 members. Families involved said the league is defined by principles of freedom and openness to young children, teenagers and adults with disabilities.

With special needs, there are times you feel very conscious that you are a different person in the world of typical people. Nobody is looking at the child in a weird way. Dee Perkins

syracuse challenger baseball director

Saturday afternoon’s game at NBT Bank Stadium marked the end of the 2018 season. Games were twice per week this summer, with players aged from age 4 to 65. Participants’ diagnoses include autism, Asperger’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, down syndrome and diabetes to Prader-Willi syndrome and Apert syndrome. Most players in Syracuse Challenger Baseball hail from Onondaga County, though there are players from Oswego and Madison County.

“With special needs, there are times you feel very conscious that you are a different person in the world of typical people,” said Dee Perkins, a Syracuse Challenger Baseball director who said she joined the organization in 2000 because her son, Taylor, was diagnosed with autism. “Nobody is looking at the child in a weird way,” Perkins said. People with disabilities are often alienated in the classroom as children, some of the participating families said. At Challenger events such as Saturday’s, parents said, children and adults with disabilities get equal playing time. Games are one inning and everybody gets to hit, with no strikeouts. At about 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, the public address announcer facilitated the small crowd’s energy with a play-by-play account of the action on the field. “Base hit! Look at that hit, huh?” he said as the ball rolled toward second base and players began to round the bases. “Everybody’s going home!” As the play unfolded, Syracuse Chiefs’ General Manager Jason Smorol said, “Isn’t this just great?” “The patience, care, love, it just touches you,” Smorol said later. One Syracuse player hits a “beep ball” because he has a visual impairment. The ball beeps, an auditory queue signaling the ball’s location as it floats toward the strike zone. Perkins said her proudest moment as a mother of a Challenger Baseball player came a few years ago, when her son caught a pop fly ball. She happened to be nearby taking photographs. “Oh my God, you caught it!” she said. Taylor picked her up and they both smiled. Adrian Bayardi, a Syracuse resident, signed up his son, Daniel, for Challenger about seven years ago. He practices a couple of times per week and enjoys cheering on the Chiefs. “He understands what’s going on,” Bayardi said. “It’s about introducing him to things he can do for the rest of his life.” The league presents its members an anything-goes opportunity: The freedom to go out and play simply because they enjoy it. The beauty of Syracuse Challenger Baseball, families said, is about this kind of freedom. mguti100@syr.edu | @Matthewgut21

t Redhouse Arts Center, the cast of “Steel Magnolias” embodies a sisterhood that extends far beyond the play itself. Robert Harling’s classic script ignites laughter in the rehearsal room as the ensemble prepares for opening night. “Our laughing on stage is not because we’ve been told to,” said actress Karis Wiggins. “No, it’s because we’ve been told we’re allowed,” actress Marcia Mele added. “Steel Magnolias” opens at Redhouse Arts Center on Sept. 21 with a preview performance on Sept. 20. The play is directed by Temar Underwood, who has worked with Redhouse as a guest artist for several years. “Steel Magnolias” tells the story of Truvy’s Beauty Salon, where the women of Chinquapin, Louisiana, get their hair styled. For Underwood, the story hits close to home — cosmetology is his family business. His father owned a hair salon when Underwood was in high school and owned a beauty school later on. When asked by the show’s designers what his vision for the play was, Underwood harkened back to his experiences at Positive Expressions salon as a teenager in Cleveland. “I think that this world is … a positive expression of all of these women that gather here as sort of their sanctuary,” Underwood said. With an all-women cast, the play is famous for its

dynamic women leads. Mele, starring as Ouiser Boudreaux, auditioned for the show because of the script’s “meaty roles for ladies of a certain age” — something she said doesn’t come around often in theater. “This is really about girlfriends, long-standing girlfriends and the support that they give each other,” Mele said. “It’s just a winner.” Wiggins, a Syracuse University alumna, first saw the “Steel Magnolias” movie with her college roommate. Wiggins is playing Clairee Belcher but said she sees herself in all of the characters. She has many Southern women in her life and hopes to do them justice in her portrayal as Clairee. “Steel Magnolias” was written in the 1980s, but Wiggins believes the show is still relevant today because the author successfully tapped

into the archetype of women’s friendships — especially the bonds that form in places such as beauty salons. “I love women ensemble pieces. It’s really always so rewarding off stage as well as onstage,” Wiggins said. Underwood’s directing style is both “hands-on” and “hands-off” at the same time, Mele said. He provides structure, while giving the actresses room to make it “their show.” Underwood, who has never seen the film version of “Steel Magnolias,” wanted the company to take ownership of this piece with a fresh eye. One note Underwood gives in every production he directs is no sighing allowed. For Underwood, sighing releases tension in the body and therefore disturbs the drama of a scene. “Drama is conflict and conflict is tension,” Underwood said. “We want to hold the tension.” The play has some emotionally difficult scenes that deal with racism and death. When directing these more serious moments, Underwood reminds the actresses to not dwell on the sad moments, but rather to focus on how the characters support each other with love. Rounding out the cast is Laura Stisser as M’Lynn Eatenton, Marguerite Mitchell as Shelby Eatenton Latcherie, Magdalyn Donnelly as Truvy Jones and Caroline Strang as Annelle Dupuy Desoto. “Steel Magnolias” runs Sept. 20 to 30. hrober03@syr.edu

The loss pushed Syracuse to a 1-2 start in Babers’ first year. A year later, in Week 2, Syracuse choked against Middle Tennessee State in the Carrier Dome. In Scott Shafer’s return, Syracuse entered the fourth quarter tied with MTSU, a team which would record a 7-6 marking after Conference USA play. After forcing three turnovers in the first half, Syracuse’s defense folded in the second frame, allowing 220 yards of total offense and three touchdowns. The first play of the fourth quarter was a 49-yard Broncos touchdown pass. The next MTSU series featured three passes for more than 10 yards and ended in another touchdown. Against Florida State on Saturday, Syracuse didn’t collapse. The Seminoles scored once in the fourth quarter with just more

than six minutes remaining. Their previous attempts for a comeback had failed, usually due to a Syracuse sack or quarterback pressure. For the first time under Babers, Syracuse held an ACC team to one touchdown. “This performance shows a lot of growth from the team we were two years ago and even last year,” defensive end Kendall Coleman said. “It means everything going forward because this is going to be major in establishing who we are this season.” While media members attempted to compare Saturday’s game to the Virginia Tech game in 2016 and Clemson last year during Saturday’s post-game interviews, there wasn’t a real correlation. Florida State was favored by three points and senior defensive end Alton Robinson added after the game he didn’t think the FSU win was an upset. FSU entered the game 1-1 with a 24-3 home loss to No.13 Virginia Tech and a 10-point win over Samford on its resume. The Seminoles

had played 10 linemen in their first two games and failed to score in the first quarter in both. The Seminoles team that entered the Carrier Dome on Saturday wasn’t the same program that beat Syracuse 10 times in a row since 1966. After a 7-6 season last year, FSU was forced to replace Jimbo Fisher, who coached the Seminoles to three ACC titles. Three games into Taggart’s tenure, the team is still transitioning. “We’re not playing like we should be,” said Taggart of his team which opened the season ranked No.19. “They should all be frustrated with themselves. We all need to look within ourselves to see what we’re doing and if we’re doing what we’re supposed to be doing.” On paper, Syracuse is better this season than FSU, which won more conference game than SU a year ago. The Orange averages more points and yards per game while holding opponents to fewer yards than FSU has in its first three games. And on Saturday, the Orange created separation against Florida State, which it failed

single passing touchdown.

Francois. Florida State’s offensive line struggled to protect Francois their first two weeks and didn’t show much improvement Saturday. Kendall Coleman led the way for the defensive line with two sacks, while Alton Robinson and Kingsley Jonathan put Francois on the turf once each. On top of sacks, SU tallied three more tackles for loss.

Eric Dungey’s health A common sight of Syracuse football the past three seasons is No. 2 standing on the sideline, helmet in hand. That familiar image returned to the Carrier Dome on Saturday. Dungey exited the game after taking a late hit on a scramble up the middle. Head coach Dino Babers said Dungey’s early exit stemmed from “blurred vision” in Dungey’s right eye. The quarterback has been slightly banged up, notably wearing tape on his right shoulder since Week 1 for a cut, Dungey said. And while DeVito proved himself more than capable, leading SU’s offense for a majority of the game, there is no doubt this is Dungey’s team. Syracuse needs its starting quarterback to be healthy.

for the Orange to average 4.8 yards per carry. But on Saturday, it surrendered three sacks. Keeping Dungey and DeVito upright is critical for this team to be successful, and three sacks for 24 yards won’t be sustainable. The line held up well in the first two games, albeit against inferior pass rushers. As ACC play continues and Syracuse faces better and better pass rushes — see Clemson — the offensive line simply must protect the quarterback at all costs.

The secondary Through three games in 2018, Syracuse has two more interceptions than it did a year ago, including one against the Seminoles. Chris Fredrick ran hip-to-hip with his man down the FSU sideline when Francois let the ball fly. Fredrick broke to the middle and a step later plucked the ball away before it could reach the FSU receiver. After getting victimized by D’Wayne Eskridge and Western Michigan in Week 1, SU’s secondary has stymied its two opponents since, allowing 425 total passing yards and a

Carrier Dome temperatures On a hot, sunny day like Saturday, the Carrier Dome becomes central New York’s biggest greenhouse. Officially, the ambient air temperature in the Dome on Saturday was reported to be in the low- to mid-80s, but it felt hotter. Florida State players seemed to face frequent cramps. The air in the Dome is completely still, so people marinate in the humidity of the armpit sweat of 37,000 other people. On Saturday, the Carrier Dome was a wholly unpleasant place to watch a football game. Those renovations can’t come soon enough. aegraham@syr.edu | @A_E_Graham

to do against MTSU and USF in years prior. Syracuse’s experienced defensive line torched the FSU offensive line. Tommy DeVito rushed and threw for a touchdown after Eric Dungey left the game early. SU allowed one conversion on third down. To compete for a bowl game, which Syracuse has now set itself up to do, it needs to win the 50-50 battles against other fringe-bowl opponents. Saturday, the Orange did that. The game shouldn’t be glorified because Syracuse beat Florida State. The teams of Seminoles’ past aren’t the team SU beat. But the Orange showed change, too. The ending of Saturday’s game is what Babers and his staff have searched for over the last two years. Now the challenge, as Babers has said many times before, is to do it again.

corners Syracuse almost converted a fourth time late in the game. After another Hoffmann insert, Weers connected with the ball and flung it over Bison goalie Olivia Harris’ right shoulder. It hit the back of the net and fell to the ground. Music started playing and the fans cheered. Then, the referee revoked the goal. Weers went over to the ref and tried to argue for a goal before getting called back into play. When a ball is inserted into play off a penalty corner, it must be stopped outside the circle, Weers said. In this instance, it wasn’t. “I agree with that call,” Bradley said. “ W hen Roos scored, the ball never left and came back in. That’s why it was declined.” Syracuse didn’t need that goal, though. It had already scored on corners thrice. That was enough. klwasile@syr.edu| @Kaci_Waz

SU’s penalty corners key in win By Kaci Wasilewski asst. copy editor

Syracuse beat Florida State 30-7 on Sunday in the Carrier Dome. SU held the Seminoles to 240 total offensive yards and allowed one FSU third down conversion. The Orange’s win over FSU was its first against the Seminoles since 1966. colin davy staff photographer

Stock watch: Tommy DeVito, Schafer: SU’s play more SU pass rush improve significant than opponent

t the ACC Kickoff in July, Syracuse head coach Dino Babers didn’t want a win total to define his team in the 2018 season. “My thing is this: I think that we’ve been in some close games,” Babers said. “If we’re going to turn into winners, we need to win some. What’s the number on that? I don’t know.” JOSH Success SCHAFER for his team STAY could be seen HUNGRY in finishing close games, which it’s failed to do in years past (in 2017, Syracuse played Louisiana State, North Carolina State, Miami and Florida State within 10 points on the road but lost all four), Babers said during training camp. On Saturday against FSU, in SU’s first real test of the season, the Orange dismantled the Seminoles, 30-7. After failing to score touchdowns twice on first-and-goal opportunities, Syracuse (3-0, 1-0 Atlantic Coast) tallied 24 second half points without starting quarterback Eric Dungey. The defense sacked FSU

quarterback Deondre Francois on consecutive series late in the third quarter that negated an FSU comeback. In Syracuse’s largest victory in the ACC under Babers, the Orange pummeled a lesser, yet reputable opponent. From the outside, the win — Syracuse’s first over FSU in 52 years — could be seen as historically significant. But through three games, the Jimbo Fisher-less Florida State team hasn’t looked like the program which won three conference titles in the last seven years. The win isn’t noteworthy because of the opponent. It matters that Syracuse finished. “To get a win on a football team like that where the game was definitely a close game for three quarters,” Babers said, “and then to pull away late like that late in the fourth quarter that’s very, very satisfying as a coach.” In 2016, Babers and Syracuse were in the position head coach Willie Taggart and FSU are in now. In the Orange’s third game under Babers, against a then Taggart-led South Florida team, Syracuse was outmatched. The Orange lost 45-20, allowing 454 yards of offense to a USF team that would eventually go 11-2. see fsu page 10

during 30-7 win over FSU

By Andrew Graham senior staff writer

yracuse (3-0, 1-0 Atlantic Coast) knocked out Florida State (1-2, 0-2), 30-7, on Saturday in front of 37,457 people in the Carrier Dome. Though starting quarterback Eric Dungey didn’t complete the first half, Syracuse made off with a statement win early in the season behind an improved pass rush and backup quarterback Tommy DeVito. Here’s whose stock is rising and falling after Saturday’s performance.

STOCK UP

Tommy DeVito With Eric Dungey looking on from the bench, Tommy DeVito took control of Syracuse’s offense late in the second quarter. He led the Orange to 27 of its 30 points, including three touchdown drives. The redshirt freshman signal caller entered the game after Dungey took a late hit scrambling up the middle. Initially, the offense sputtered as SU stuck to inside handoffs, but eventually the Orange broke through. DeVito’s best completion may have been his first, a 16-yard sideline completion to Jamal Custis setting up first and goal at the one yard line. DeVito made a couple more top-notch throws and looked comfortable conducting the offense throughout the second half. DeVito’s final stat line: 11-for-16 passing for 144 yards and a touchdown and seven carries for nine yards and a touchdown. Pass rush Against Western Michigan and Wagner, Syracuse produced three sacks for 21 yards. On Saturday, SU lived in Florida State’s backfield and Stephen A. Smith took notice. By game’s end, Syracuse had tallied four sacks for 32 lost yards, along with five other hits and hurries on FSU quarterback Deondre see stocks page 10

Carolin Hoffmann placed the ball on the end line and took a few steps back, midway through the first half. Most of the other Syracuse players bordered the circle, making an arc in front of the goal to set up for the penalty corner. The whistle blew, and Hoffmann dragged the ball forward, flicking it toward Tess Queen. Queen changed the ball’s direction, sending it toward Roos Weers. Weers in turn passed the ball to Chiara Gutsche, positioned closer to the goal. Gutsche said she had a feeling she was going to score. She wedged her stick under the ball. It popped into the air and flew into the back of the net. It was SU’s first goal in three games. That goal helped No. 12 Syracuse (4-3, 0-2 Atlantic Coast) end its three-game losing streak Sunday afternoon at J.S. Coyne Field. SU’s 3-0 defeat of Bucknell (4-3, 1-0 Patriot) was the Orange’s first shutout since August. All three of SU’s goals came off of penalty corners.

Number of goals Syracuse scored via penalty corners on Sunday

“We executed well on offensive penalty corners,” Weers said. Before Sunday’s game, SU was 71st in the NCAA in penalty corners per game and only turned three of its 23 corners into goals. Sunday, the Orange attempted six corners. SU converted on 50 percent, its highest rate of the season. “It’s the insert, the stop and the pass,” SU head coach Ange Bradley said. “It’s connection. I thought they did a great job with that.” Early in the second half, that link showed again when Hoffmann was inserted. She pushed the ball toward junior Claire Webb. The midfielder tapped it to Weers, who fired the ball into the goal to put SU up 2-0. Freshman SJ Quigley got a chance to insert midway through the second half. Quigley’s second corner attempt was a dart to freshman Laura Graziosi, who fired it toward the goal. An announcer said that Graziosi had scored, but then he corrected himself. Freshman Peyton Kemp had actually deflected it into the back of the cage for her first collegiate goal. “It’s nice to see,” Bradley said. “It breaks that bubble from someone, it just opens up ‘Wow, I can do this.’” see corners page 10
