As ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ soars, director sets his sights on Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical and the Thai cave rescue Jen Yamato Los Angeles Times (TNS) Two weeks ago, before his watershed romantic comedy “Crazy Rich Asians” pushed beyond expectations to a $34-million, five-day opening, director Jon M. Chu was already feeling the electricity of what would become a historic moment in Hollywood.

“I want to say 50 theaters have been bought out already. People email me, ‘What can we do?’ Anyone can support in any way … both Asian and not!” he said then, during an interview for a special L.A. Times series on the Warner Bros. release, hoping for a groundswell of support from within and outside of the Asian American community.

Many more theaters were subsequently bought out across the country, by celebrities and non-celebs alike. Tech and digital influencers boosted the hashtag #GoldOpen and a cascade of social media support — from Ava DuVernay, Dwayne Johnson, Chris Pratt, Justin Bieber, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Lena Waithe, Olivia Munn and many others — poured in throughout opening weekend.

Now the little film with a modest $30-million budget, in a genre many thought was dead (the glossy rom-com), stands to send a message to the entire industry: Diversity sells.

“There were no guarantees when we started this,” Chu said earlier this month, feeling the love building. “And to see it pop, even beyond our own community, has been really incredible.”

According to a USC Annenberg study of the top 100 films of 2017, only 4.8 percent featured a character of Asian descent with a speaking role. But the “Crazy Rich Asians” effect is real, according to industry creators. At a post-screening Q&A last week hosted by the L.A. chapter of the Asian American Journalists Assn., co-screenwriter Adele Lim relayed a recent meeting she’d had in which an exec noted they were waiting to see how “Crazy Rich Asians” performed before greenlighting similarly diverse projects.

On Twitter, “Sleepy Hollow” executive producer Albert Kim revealed that the

wheels of progress are already in motion: “In the last week, two network pilots were sold that feature all-Asian casts. I also know of three cable projects, all in active development, that mostly feature Asian and Asian American characters. It’s going to happen, the momentum is there.”

Other distributors with rare Asian American-led projects synced up around the “Crazy Rich Asians” release for a frame atypically rich in Asian American leads.

Sony’s Screen Gems will open director Aneesh Chaganty’s Sundance prize-winning thriller “Searching,” starring John Cho as a Silicon Valley father frantically searching for his missing daughter, in limited release Friday ahead of a nationwide release for Labor Day weekend.

Meanwhile, streaming giant Netflix continued its “Summer of Love” over the weekend by releasing YA rom-com adaptation “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before,” centered on an Asian American teen heroine played by actress Lana Condor, and instantly set social media buzzing.

For Chu, a Palo Alto-born USC film school graduate who had a successful career directing studio franchise films “G.I. Joe: Retaliation,” “Now You See Me” and “Now You See Me 2,” taking the helm of a culturally specific story was an intensely personal choice.

It’s one he intends to continue by directing the big-screen adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tony Award-winning Broadway musical “In the Heights” next year. Set in the predominantly Hispanic American neighborhood of New York’s Washington Heights, the play by Miranda and Pulitzer-winning playwright Quiara Alegria Hudes struck familiar and vital chords to Chu. “I’m growing up, and when you grow up your tastes change,” he said. “What you feel is important changes; your priorities change. I remember choosing ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ and ‘In the Heights’ around the same time — knowing they had similar ideas to them. The immigrant story was under attack, and I wanted to tell an immigrant story that wasn’t political, wasn’t heavy, but was joyful and about a community.”

Chu and Miranda have already spent

time in Washington Heights in preparation for filming. And, as Chu did with “Crazy Rich Asians,” scouring the internet and the globe for the international ensemble. The director is preparing to cast a wide net for talent.

“We are in it,” smiled Chu, who launched his career directing the dynamic “Step Up 2: The Streets,” one of its sequels, two Justin Bieber documentaries and the dance-driven web series “The LXD.” “We’re designing the dance numbers now and redoing the music. We’re looking at everyone.”

First, he will direct Brooklynn Prince, the 8-year-old breakout star of last year’s acclaimed indie “The Florida Project,” in a 10-episode mystery drama for Apple based on the true story of child investigative reporter Hilde Lysiak, who made headlines reporting a local murder in her Pennsylvania hometown through her own self-published newspaper.

He’s also developing a film about the Thai cave rescue, based on the true story that dominated world news earlier this summer. It was no coincidence that the July announcement of his project, produced by “Crazy Rich Asians” producer John Penotti of Ivanhoe Pictures, came

a day after Pure Flix’s Michael Scott announced that the “God’s Not Dead” company was pursuing rights to the same story.

“With the Thai cave story, I felt enraptured by the story like everyone else,” said Chu. “But when I saw other people getting in on that story from the outside, who I’m sure have good intentions, I just wanted to put out more of a warning to anybody thinking of making this — that we’re watching, and they need to do their due diligence when telling this story. And I knew I was in a position to make that public, and to make sure everybody understood that.”

While he says it’s too early to divulge plans for the film, Chu, who is not of Thai descent, also says he won’t necessarily be the one to direct it. “Maybe we find the right Thai director or writer. Maybe we find other ways to tell it. Maybe I’m just a steward to help block out the things that can ruin something like this,” he offered.

“Every artist has the right to do whatever they want, and I respect that more than anything. But this story is so important and so global that I want to at least have an option for the families and for the people to come to — and to know that I want to help watch whatever comes out of the telling of the story, for history.”

Whether telling the story himself or facilitating the next wave of voices, Chu is hopeful for the post-“Crazy Rich Asians” Hollywood. In casting what would become a hit adaptation of Kevin Kwan’s best-selling “Crazy Rich Asians” novel, Chu led an exhaustive global talent search looking at just about every Asian and Asian American actor there is, he joked.

And while he couldn’t cast them all, he happily volunteers his findings to any exec or creator coming up against the ageold misconception that diverse and inclusive talent simply isn’t there — because it is, says Chu. “I’ve seen them with my own eyes!

Many of whom I could not put in the movie because they didn’t fit a specific character. But I know that they are stars,” he said. “Come to me! Talk to me! We’ll share our findings with you.”

San Diego State grad finally gets his diploma — at age 105 John Wilkens The San Diego Union-Tribune (TNS) SAN DIEGO — At age 105, Bill Vogt has learned a thing or two.

Until Thursday afternoon, though, he’d never held in his hands the piece of paper proving what he’d known to be true about himself since 1935: That he is a graduate of San Diego State University.

At a small gathering on campus, school President Adela de la Torre gave him a diploma made to look like what he might have received 83 years ago.

“I hope I haven’t been a disgrace to the school,” Vogt quipped.

“Not at all,” the president said.

School officials believe he is the oldest of their alumni, and maybe the only one still living who attended when the campus was a teachers’ college located in the University Heights neighborhood. He started there in 1931, driving from his home in La Mesa in a Model T. When the college moved to its present site he went with it, majoring in business — or, as it was called at the time, “commerce.”

He remembers having a lot of fun as an undergraduate. He was part of the group that put the first water-and-limestone “S” on Cowles Mountain.

But, he said Thursday, “I wasn’t a great student.” With Prohibition in place, he and his fraternity brothers may have spent a little too much time looking for booze and not enough time studying.

So in what should have been his final semester, one professor was so unimpressed with Vogt’s academic performance that he refused to give him credit for a class, leaving him a few units short of graduation.

He had to go back for another term to take a replacement course, finishing up in midyear. The next graduation ceremony was months away.

He had other things on his mind than where to pick up his diploma. Like finding work in the middle of the Great Depression.

“We were all scrambling,” he said.

Vogt got a job with a title company in town, then worked on several educa-

tion-related New Deal projects around the state. With World War II looming, a Navy friend of his father’s suggested that he sign up for officer’s school.

Assigned to naval intelligence, he spent the war in various postings. He also served in the Korean War, and then went to the Pentagon, where he had a front-row seat for the Cuban Missile Crisis and the seizure in 1968 of the USS Pueblo by North Korean forces.

Vogt retired from the military in 1970 and settled back home in San Diego, into a house that he and his wife, Lillian, had built on Mount Soledad. He then had a brief second career, working a half-dozen years as a school administrator, before retiring for good.

His wife died in 2013.

Over the years, Vogt kept tabs on his alma mater. He cheered for the football and basketball teams. He marveled at how big the campus was getting.

In May, he decided to join the alumni association, as a life member. He was enticed by an offer of a free wooden diploma frame for anyone who signed up.

Now all he needed was a diploma.

Sandra Cook, associate vice president for enrollment management, had her staff search the archives to find his academic records, confirming that he had earned a bachelor of arts degree.

“There’s so much bad news in the world,” Cook said. “It was a treat to have something like this to work on.”

Her office then put together the diploma, made to look as close as possible to the ones handed out in 1935, right down his now outdated major, Commerce.

Vogt’s son, Bob, said his father was a little nervous Thursday morning, worried about being an oddity. “They just want to see me because I’m old,” he grumbled.

But during the gathering, de la Torre and Dan Montoya, an assistant vice president, talked about the “living legacy” Vogt represents, how he is an important bridge from the school’s past to its present.

“Bill was an Aztec before this campus was even built,” Montoya said.

When he was handed the diploma, Vogt said, “It’s beautiful. To think that I would ever get this, let alone in this way,

San Diego State alumni Bill Vogt, 105, who graduated from San Diego State in 1935, receives his diploma, which he originally didn’t get because he graduated in mid-year, from SDSU President Adela de la Torre with Assistant Vice President Dan Montoya, left, nearby at San Diego State University in San Diego on Thursday, Aug. 16, 2018.

is unbelievable.” He joked about being the only person ever to have a private graduation ceremony.

“I’m going to hang it on the wall with pride,” he said.

After the ceremony, as Vogt accepted congratulations from well-wishers and posed for photos, his son shook his head in wonder at his father’s spunk and longevity.

“The first thing he would tell you is he’s been lucky,” Bob Vogt, 69, said.

But his father is also “a careful guy,” Vogt said, “a creature of moderation.” If he wants a belt of bourbon, he takes it. If

he wants some bacon, he eats it.

“He doesn’t deny himself anything, but he also doesn’t do anything to excess,” his son said.

And his father reads, all the time.

Newspapers, magazines, books. He pays attention to current events, gives voice to his opinions, knows who Taylor Swift is.

Bob Vogt said he already has an epitaph in mind, one that helps explain why his father went to college in the first place, all those years ago: “Curiosity didn’t kill this cat.”

Rihanna loves it. So does Gwyneth Paltrow. Why fake jewelry unites us — and how to wear it well Cindy Dampier Chicago Tribune (TNS) Fake is big, but you know that by now.

Fake news, fake Facebook accounts, fake product reviews, fake love, fake hair, fake body parts …

Fake has built its own little universe out there. So it makes sense that Kenneth Jay Lane is hotter than ever.

Lane, a jewelry designer whose flamboyant pieces have graced the arms, necks and earlobes of famously stylish women from Jackie Kennedy to Rihanna and Gwyneth Paltrow (or from Barbara Bush to Beyonce, if you want to get real) died last year at age 85. He was unabashedly fake to the notso-bitter end.

The most beloved costume jewelry designer in the world of fashion, Lane, a Rhode Island School of

Design-trained designer, imagined his pieces with an artist’s eye, a flair for color and an unapologetic love of flashy, faux stones. The bigger, the better.

“He was emphatic about the fact that he was never using anything that was a real stone,” says Victoria Tudor, a decorative arts specialist at the auction house Christie’s.

“It was all fake. It was all supposed to be.”

Next week in New York, Christie’s will auction Lane’s estate, including the contents of his grand Park Avenue apartment and pieces from his jewelry archive, and on Wednesday, the auction house held a preview of select pieces of jewelry at Chicago’s Space 519, a fashion and lifestyle boutique with a growing following. At the preview, potential buyers ogled elaborate waterfall necklaces and fingered gem-encrusted earrings dis-

played at arm’s reach. They were jaw-dropping, sure, but meant to be worn, not squirreled away behind glass.

Lane’s creations, which are estimated to sell for prices ranging from the low hundreds to around $1,500, will likely fetch lower prices than the paintings, furniture and objects he collected. Which he probably wouldn’t mind.

“His pieces are definitely worn by famous women,” says Tudor, “but they were also for any woman to wear.”

Fake news? Divisive. Fake jewelry? Democratic — in the best sense. Long before Target mass-marketed style, Lane was making accessibility the bedrock of his jewelry line. He was so fake, he was real. Today’s statement jewelry trend follows a straight line back to Lane, who credited himself with making costume jewelry into bold, unabashed objects of high style. “Costume jewelry is

getting bolder and bigger,” says Jim Wetzel, co-owner of Space 519 with partner Lance Lawson. “We’re in this moment where women want to be different. And with costume jewelry, original can be attainable.”

Wetzel styles statement jewelry with simple, modern clothes or even with a T-shirt and cool blazer. He points out that getting your flair from a jaw-dropping piece of costume jewelry is a trick employed by “past masters” like Audrey Hepburn — and it still telegraphs a sure-handed style. It’s not hard to follow that lead, Wetzel says. Just remember: “Don’t ignore the emotional. If you’re looking at something and you’re like, ‘I love that color,’ then buy it. A color in a necklace isn’t going to be unwearable if you’re doing it with neutral clothes. If you see a brilliant blue and you’re attracted to

it, you can wear it.

“Love that one piece, and wear that one piece. You don’t have to really pack on more friends. If you have an amazing pair of statement earrings, then that is the statement earring, and you don’t really need to go much further.

“Take care of your jewelry.

When you take it off at night, put it in the little sleeping bag. Because you want it to stay in good condition. It may not be a Cartier piece, but it might be the piece your grandmother gave you that she wore on Saturday when she went out to dinner with her husband. That’s important.

And, of course the point that Lane never forgot: Fake doesn’t have to be Putin-on-Facebook creepy.

Fake can just be fun. Wear it with pride.

The Statesman provides employment opportunities Joe Lippard Opinions Editor Everyone knows the old stereotype of the poor college student. It’s not entirely incorrect, either — I’ve had many friends throughout college who lived on a diet of ramen and soda. I myself have taken more trips to Dollar Tree and the food pantry for groceries than I can remember.

My lack of consistent income as a college student is actually what prompted me to apply for a job at the Statesman in the first place.

As a columnist, I made money based on how many articles I contributed, so the job at the Statesman provided a good amount of extra spending money. There are a lot of opportunities to work on campus that provided extra spending money, but

there were multiple reasons I chose to apply to the Statesman.

First of all, as an opinion writer, I like making my feelings and thoughts about topics heard.

It’s important that we be able to share our opinions in an open environment, and I felt the Statesman provided that. I could choose to write about pretty much anything I wanted, within reason of course. I never felt limited in what I could talk about.

As long as it was relevant to current events or our lives as students, I could choose to write about it But even beyond being able to share my feelings about topics — a trait reserved more for the Opinion section — I enjoy the atmosphere of the Statesman.

Writers can be expected to come into the office every so often for meetings with

their editors, but articles are all turned in electronically.

The office has a nice business casual vibe, which helps get things done faster and more efficiently.

Everyone is treated as an actual employee of an actual newspaper — it’s great for anyone who wants to work in any journalistic field, but it’s also casual enough that even people who aren’t journalism majors can have a good experience.

It also helps give students some real-world experience working for an actual employer, which can be really helpful while looking for future jobs.

During my time at the Statesman, I’ve also been able to write a couple news articles. I didn’t come to college with the idea of ever becoming a news reporter, but it’s actually pretty fun. It’s more serious than opinion

writing, and oftentimes stories are assigned, rather than chosen, but even when you get assigned a story, you can still have fun with it.

As a reporter, I got to talk to professors about things I wouldn’t have normally talked about, and it’s kind of cool to get the scoop on things before they’re published.

Finally, one of my favorite things about the Statesman is that there’s this real sense of equality. I write stories for a lot of issues, just like my writers do.

The Statesman offers opportunities for advancement as well. For instance, I worked as an opinion columnist for about a year before I was given the opportunity to become the editor, and in that time, I’ve also seen three other editors become the Editor-in-Chief.

Opportunities to advance come up every so often, and

those opportunities are often given to everyone. I’m a music business major, for instance, and I’m editing the Opinion section.

The Statesman is a great place to work, and I don’t say that just because I already work there. I get a sense of accomplishment by contributing to something bigger than myself writing for an actual publication, and it helps me to know that I’m getting actual experience in an actual job before I actually get out into the workforce.

The people are cool, the environment is casual enough to be enjoyed by most people and it provides real experience with actual chances to advance. At the end of the day, I’m extremely pleased with my choice to work for the Statesman.

Campus Life Office expands in HMSU Anthony Goelz Reporter The Office of Campus Life has expanded its operation in the Hulman Memorial Student Union.

The Director of Campus Life, Freda Luers, explains some of the details about the expansion that took place over this past summer break.

“We are excited that the Office of Campus Life has expanded to 2 loca-

tions in HMSU,” said Luers. “We are located in 143 as well as on the fifth floor. The location on the first floor is the previous location of the Indiana Statesman office, while the office eon the fifth floor remains.”

Students can hopefully benefit from this larger office space.

“The first floor location is a space for student organizations to have small group meetings and socialize, a leadership library and resource

area and the staff that works most directly with Leadership programs and Student Organizations,” said Luers. “This part of the office stays open until 7 pm Monday to Thursday and 4:30 pm on Friday.”

With this change in locals, Campus Life can continue to give back to students in multiple ways.

“The fifth floor office continues to house the Hulman Memorial Student Union Board, which includes Spring

The Indiana Statesman and The Sycamore yearbook move to Dreiser Hall from HMSU Rileigh McCoy News Editor

Danielle Guy | Indiana Statesman

Room 204 is the new home of the Indiana Statesman newsroom.

Over the course of the past summer, the Indiana Statesman office moved from the first floor Hulman Memorial Student Union to the second floor of Dreiser Hall. “I like the space, I think it’s pretty cozy,� Joe Lippard the Opinions Editor said.

This move allowed the Statesman to be closer to the rest of student media organizations on campus. It will hopefully bring stronger connections and provide a more

organized space for students to reach all of student media in one building.

The Indiana Statesman office is located now in room 204 of Dreiser Hall. The Sycamore yearbook office also relocated to room 203 of Dreiser Hall as well. Student Publications Director, Martha Milner, now has her office in 202.

Each space is organized for students’ needs for student media. “I think it will be a great transition, it was a hard move but it’ll be good.� Statesman

Editor-in-Chief, Claire Silcox said. “We will have almost immediate access to Communication students and our peers of the other student medias.�

The Statesman is hoping to collaborate with the other student media organizations such as Sycamore Video, and WZIS. “I love that we are all still close together, although we aren’t in the same room we are still on the same floor,�

Silcox said.

Deep-dish pizza potato chips?

We tried all 8 new Lay’s Tastes of America flavors Louisa Chu Chicago Tribune (TNS) Lay’s launched a Tastes of America line of potato chips last week with eight new regional flavors, but only one will be available in Chicagoland stores: Deep Dish Pizza.

The Chicago-style chip, inspired by Giordano’s stuffed pizza, specifically, represents the “Heartland” and “Mid-America,” according to Lay’s. The remaining seven, sold in stores only in their respective regions and online, include Fried Pickles with Ranch for the Midwest (which evidently does not include Chicago); New England Lobster Roll for the Northeast; Chesapeake Bay Crab Spice for the Mid-Atlantic; Pimento Cheese for the Southeast; Cajun Spice for the Central Gulf; Chile Con Queso for “Texoma” (the Texas and Oklahoma borderlands), mountains and “SoCal” (Southern California); and Thai Sweet Chili for the Pacific Northwest.

We tasted all eight new flavors — more on that in a moment.

The snack company has also brought back four flavors from past programs: Ketchup, Fried Green Tomatoes, Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Popper and West Coast Truffle Fries.

However, seven out of the eight new flavors ($3.49 for big 7.75-ounce bags) are currently sold out on the Lay’s website, and a variety pack of all 12 limited-edition chips ($19.99 for a dozen small 2.75-ounce bags) shows out of stock at Walmart and the dreaded “Currently unavailable, we don’t know when or if this item will be back in stock,” message on Amazon.

“The Lay’s team is aware that a few of the flavors are now sold out because of high demand and are working to fulfill their inventory as quickly as possible!”

said Kimberly Scott, director of communications at Frito-Lay, in an email.

This is the greatest number of flavors the company has released at one time; the promotion will end Sept. 23 or when supplies run out.

The campaign differs from the crowdsourced “Do Us a Flavor” contest. “While there aren’t plans to bring the ‘Do Us a Flavor’ program back next year, that isn’t to say the brand won’t decide to bring it back another year,” said Scott.

Meanwhile, we did taste test all eight new flavors (sent as samples by Frito-Lay). Though they are meant as a celebration of summer, like an all-American cross-country road trip in your mouth, we instead were left stranded with the aftertaste of gas station-fueled bad decisions. I say this as a big fan of weird potato chips who once had an extensive private collection from around the world — that is until I ate nearly all of them.

Here are our tasting notes. (All parenthetical quotes below are Lay’s product descriptions.)

Deep Dish Pizza The Deep Dish Pizza flavor struck tasters as surprisingly cheesy, and captured the monstrous mozzarella magma of Giordano’s stuffed pies. (Joseph Hernandez / Chicago Tribune) Deep Dish Pizza: (“A taste of the iconic stuffed deep-dish pizza inspired by the famous Giordano’s pizza recipe.”) Surprisingly cheesy, notably capturing the monstrous mozzarella magma of Giordano’s stuffed pies. The chips smelled more like pizza than tasted of it. One taster thought this flavor was the weirdest, “each component of pizza washed over my palate in succession. Tomato! Cheese! And then, bizarrely, CRUST!” Fried Pickles with Ranch: (“A deepfried favorite at Midwest state fairs, you can’t pass up the opportunity to try this fair food fave.”) Vinegar- and dill-for-

ward with a faint creaminess. “I would buy this one,” a taster wrote. “Flavor is sharp but accessible.”

New England Lobster Roll: (“Inspired by the lobster shacks of the Northeast, fans can now get the taste of fresh lobster served on a buttery grilled roll.”) No, you can’t. Perhaps a whisper of butter and toast, but no crustacean whatsoever.

“This one is all roll, no lobster,” wrote a taster.

Chesapeake Bay Crab Spice: (“Inspired by crab shacks along the Atlantic, this flavor is a taste of the Bay with custom-blended spices ready to savor.”)

Overwhelming celery salted Old Bay Seasoning. Do note that this chip was not actually inspired by a regional dish.

Pimento Cheese: (“Inspired by Sunday socials and Southern charm, this flavor is a taste of creamy sharp cheddar with a hint of cayenne pepper.”) Promising, but as one self-described cheese lover noted, the common problem with all the new chips was the cheese flavors are rather bland. This might be good with a real pimento cheese dip.

P ROMO C ODE :

Cajun Spice: (“Prominently featured across beloved dishes like Jambalaya and Blackened Cajun Chicken, this Gulf Coast iconic flavor includes a mix of garlic, paprika, onion and oregano.”) Again, not inspired by a regional dish and “nothing but a chip slathered with Cajun flavoring,” wrote one taster.

Chile Con Queso: (“Inspired by a Southwest favorite, this flavor infuses the legendary Tex-Mex taste of velvety cheddar queso with a dash of spice.”)

Redeemed by a bare hit of heat. “Good but nothing that cannot be achieved by a classic cheddar and sour cream,” wrote one taster.

Thai Sweet Chili: (“The food truck scene of the Pacific Northwest inspired this flavor, boasting the delicious blend of sweet chili sauce with a hint of heat.”)

The best texture of all we tasted, with slightly thicker and crunchier chips. One taster wrote, “With their hint of tangy sweetness, I was reminded of the Orion O!karto fries I grew up on from the Korean market down the street from my house.”

Sycamore men’s and women’s cross country picked third in MVC Preseason Poll Andrew Hile Athletic Media Relations ST. LOUIS - The Indiana State men’s and women’s cross country team have each been tabbed to finish third at the MVC Cross Country Championships, the Valley announced Thursday morning. The MVC preseason polls are determined by a vote of the league’s head cross country coaches.

“I really like our schedule for the fall,” associate head coach for cross country Kyle Walsh said.

“We kept it similar to the way it’s been historically with Pre-Nationals and Notre Dame Invitational as our mid-season large meets to see where we stack up before the conference championships. We are opening up at a low-key met against Miami and IU so that’ll be a fun opener for us to go up against some big time programs. Then we get to host our own John McNichols Invitational and we love racing at home and having a chance to get out on the historic course.

We host the NCAA Regional again for the season finale to see if we can get any individuals to the national championships. I think we are set up for a good fall with both the men and women being picked third in the conference. Last year the men finished second and the women took fourth and I think we can build off of that.”

The men gathered 60 points in the preseason poll and were picked to finish third overall.

Bradley collected all nine first place votes and are first with 81 points while Illinois State is

“I know the Bradley men are very tough and bring in a lot of strong athletes, but we’re going to focus more on ourselves and be the best that we can be on that given day, and then anything can happen. The conference is pretty wide open from second place back so it’ll be fun to see all the teams fighting for positions. Individually, Akis is coming off of his 10K championship during the outdoor season and is looking to build off of that into cross country. There’s a handful of guys who have won conference championships during track and in cross country who will all be battling in October, and he’ll be one of the guys in the mix. Quentin Pierce is coming off of an All-Missouri Valley performance last fall and we’re excited to get him back out there. Ryan Cash and Cam Trout both scored for us at the outdoor track championships and will be big contributors on the men’s side,” Walsh said.

second with 67 points. The Sycamores were ahead of Loyola, Drake, Southern Illinois, UNI, Valparaiso and Evansville in the conference predictions. Indiana State will return three All-MVC runners in Quentin Pierce who finished eighth, Blake Kramer who finished ninth and Akis Medrano who placed 10th.

The Future is Yours with the Indiana Statesman

UNI, Illinois State, Missouri State, Southern Illinois, Drake, Valparaiso and Evansville in the conference pecking order. After redshirting last season, Indiana State will have redshirt junior Brooke Moore back in their lineup alongside Jessi Conley, Megan Doty, Abigail Grider, Cami Hansen, Colleen Madden, Michaela Ward and Alli Workman.

“On the women’s side, I don’t know if there’s a clear front-runner. Getting in the top-three is something we’ve wanted to do for several years in a row and haven’t been able to do, but we think this is the year. The combination of leadership and experience up at the front along with some really good young athletes coming in give us a good mix.

Brooke Mooreredshirted last year and will be returning for her redshirt junior year this fall.

She’s getting back on track after finishing runner-up in the 1500 during the outdoor season. We also return several scorers and big time contributors in Jessi Conley who came back for her fifth year, Megan Doty who is returning for her senior year and Alli Workman. Those four up front for us will be a strong foundation and we will fill it in behind them with some really good talent as well,” Walsh said.

The MVC Cross Country Championships will be held on Saturday, October 27 in Peoria, Ill. It will be second-time in league history that the MVC Cross Country Championship will be aired on The Valley on ESPN.

Sycamores and Mastodons battle to scoreless draw Ace Hunt Athletic Media Relations

It was a defensive struggle that saw each team have multiple offensive chances, but every time the defense stepped up and made big plays to force a scoreless draw in college soccer action on a warm and windy afternoon between Indiana State and Purdue-Fort Wayne.

The match was played at Indiana Tech’s Warrior Athletic Field after heavy rains on Thursday and Friday at Purdue Fort Wayne’s on campus facility made

that surface unplayable.

The Sycamores moved to 0-11 on the season after the draw while Purdue-Fort Wayne now has the same mark at 0-1-1. ISU had won four in a row over the Mastodons and are now 2-1-2 all-time in Fort Wayne.

The entire defense played well but was paced by goalkeeper Hannah Sullivan who tied a career high with six saves. She also had six saves twice last season — against both Eastern Illinois and Purdue. Sullivan played the entire 110 minutes and stopped every shot she faced.

All of her saves were big in a scoreless draw, but she preserved the tie with a save in the 107th minute off a shot by PFW’s Deanna Hecht. She also posted another key save in the 87th minute as the two teams were looking to move ahead in the waning moments of overtime.

Kayla Wisniewski, who entered the match as the Mastodon’s leading scorer, tried to find the back of the net but found the talented goalkeeper in her way.

Another pivotal moment came in the 56th and 57th minutes

when Sullivan made a save to momentarily stop a Mastodon shot on goal and then they had two more great looks which were off the mark to keep the match scoreless.

Katie Wells led the offensive charge with three shots on goal.

Alina Steffen added a shot on goal as well as the Sycamores managed to get four good looks at the goal themselves in the contest. Steffen’s shot on goal came during an offensive surge in the 59th minute but was stopped by PFW’s goalie Lorah Pund.

Alise Emser recorded a shot in

the 91st minute early in the first overtime which was blocked by the Mastodon defense.

Wells opened the second half with her third shot on goal in the match. She had two looks as well early in the match.

The Mastodons held a 13-6 edge in shots, including a 6-4 advantage in shots on goal. Purdue Fort Wayne had seven corner kicks on the match.

Indiana State returns to action on Friday, August 24 when they travel to SIU Edwardsville for an 8 p.m. (ET) match.
