WESTFIELD, Ind. – With six minutes and 18 seconds remaining, IU senior midfielder Francesco Moore went toward the IU bench. It was the first opportunity he had all day to rest as he was being substituted for senior midfielder Trevor Swartz. Instead of taking a seat to catch his breath, Moore embraced every single coach and player on the IU sideline, with his team just minutes away from clinching the Big Ten Tournament title. IU defeated Michigan 3-0 on Sunday at Grand Park Sports Campus to claim its first "Big Ten Double," winning both the conference tournament and regular season titles, since 2006. The Big Ten Tournament title was also the 13th overall in program history. "Just having a moment with a couple of the seniors that were off the field, just telling them how proud I was, it was good," IU Coach
3-0 Todd Yeagley said. After being away from the team for the first two games of the tournament, sophomore midfielder Griffin Dorsey was back into the starting lineup for IU in the championship match. It was an earlierthan-expected arrival, as he was participating in the CONCACAF Under-20 Championship with the U-20 United States National Team. Dorsey made his presence felt, as he had four shots and a pair of assists in 54 minutes played. He constantly applied pressure to the Michigan defense and was giving IU the offensive firepower it sometimes lacked when he was out of the lineup. “We were all pretty excited when we got the news from the national team. He was pretty excited to come back and help us," Yeagley said. "I don’t know if it would’ve been more difficult, I certainly feel like we could’ve got the job done,

but he helped us.” Senior midfielder Cory Thomas was named the Most Outstanding Offensive Player of the Tournament and senior defender Andrew Gutman earned Most Outstanding Defensive Player of the Tournament
Students and Bloomington community members marched from Sample Gates to Showalter Fountain on Sunday and spoke about how mass violence has affected them and their communities. Around 50 people participated in the #StrongerThanHate march to show solidarity against hate and violence. Speakers focused on mass gun violence such as the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting, the Parkland, Florida, shooting and the shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. The planning committee started preparing for the march about a week and a half ago, but between then and Sunday, a gunman entered a bar in Thousand Oaks, California and killed 12 people. Reanna Edlin was on the planning committee. She said her brother-in-law went to the Tree of Life Synagogue, so she wanted to show her support. The committee raised more than $15,000 through crowdfunding to donate to the Tree of Life synagogue as of Sunday evening. At the march, the committee was selling bracelets for Bloomington United. Josh Dinner, assistant director of the Helene G. Simon Hillel Center, and Jess Goldblatt, director of Greek affairs and Engagement at Hillel, planned the march after being approached by the student committee. “This event was created by a handful of passionate and actionoriented students who had enough of this hate in our communities,” Goldblatt said.
Goldblatt encouraged people to meet and talk to one new person while marching to the fountain, and to find out what motivated them to be there. After he spoke, the group started marching down Indiana Avenue. There was no chanting but instead the sounds of people chatting with new people. Some held signs that said “Hate has no home in our town.” Then the group congregated in front of IU Auditorium and students spoke. IU Student Government President Alex Wisniewski was the first to speak. He said IU is going to continue to make a culture of inclusivity. “Together we will protect our students from acts of violence because of what they look like, who they love, how they pray or who they are,” he said. Freshman Aydin Mayers started by sharing the story of how he was affected by the Parkland shooting. He was getting on a plane to a convention in Orlando when he heard about the Parkland shooting. He said he has friends from Parkland who were in the school during the shooting. “I’m tired of having to give these speeches,” he said. He said people should continue to pray with their feet by marching until there is change. Hillel Student President Brad Sadoff said people should stand up for change and that he sees the diverse groups at IU as a family. “When something bad happens to a member of your family do you stand idly by?” Sadoff said. “No, you

Students, community march against hate By Alex Hardgrave
The men’s Big Ten roster defeated the Atlantic Coast Conference 179-174 with the help of strong performances from IU members. As a whole, the IU men took part in two winning relays, had eight individual victories and had four swimmers set the fastest times in the nation in their respective events. “Our guys really came through to help the conference,” IU Coach Ray Looze said. “They really showed up ready and were better than advertised.” On the first night of competition, senior Vini Lanza took first in the 100 fly and the 800 freestyle relay. He also won the 800 free relay and the 200 fly Sunday with times of 1:24.46 and 1:42.67 respectively. “The rest of the Big Ten coaches were super impressed with Vini,” Looze said. “Vini has made an enormous improvement on lockouts and turns, and I’m really seeing that come to fruition.” Junior Mohamed Samy also joined Lanza in the 800 freestyle relay victory and added two more individual wins in the 200 freestyle relay — which was the quickest time in the nation this season — and the 200 freestyle Sunday. Looze said Samy’s determination and relentless pursuit of improving on his turns was important for the Big Ten team and IU this season. “We call Samy ‘the bear’ because he’s as tough as a grizzly bear,” Looze said. “He’s the guy we want at the end of a relay. He’s automatic.” In his final year, IU senior Zach Apple posted a victory with sophomore Gabriel Fantoni in the 800 free relay with a time of 1:24.46. Apple also was part of the winning 800 freestyle relay with Lanza and Samy, which beat the ACC by less than two

Celebrating diversity and unity to a packed house, the African American Arts Institute, or AAAI, presented the 25th anniversary Potpourri of the Arts at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. The performance featured AAAI’s three performing ensembles: the African American Dance Company, the African American Choral Ensemble and the IU Soul Revue. James Strong, director of the IU Soul Revue, said the show speaks to the importance of the arts and diversity. “The arts can be a life saver,” Strong said. “You got talented folks who don’t have an outlet. Sometimes they have a talent that is not understood by the average person, maybe not even by their own family. But once the student or kid finds that one outlet, it can mean the world to him.” The African American Dance Company, directed by Stafford C. Berry Jr., presented works displaying African American and African diaspora culture, including pieces in contemporary, jazz, African, hip-hop and other styles. The show opened with Berry’s “Mas(k)ulenities,” which explored the fluidity of gender. Specializing in gospel songs, the African American Choral Ensemble began with “Set Down Servant.” In his remarks, director Raymond Wise said that gospel music was repetitive to encourage audience participation. The ensemble's final song, “Stand up and Speak Out,” encouraged the SEE POTPOURRI, PAGE 5
