Trick play helps save the day for Indiana State football
ALEX MODESITT Editor-in-Chief Indiana State needed a miracle late in the game against conference-rival Missouri State on Saturday and it got one, winning 20-18 in wild fashion. The Sycamores win their second straight game and improve to 6-3 on the season — 3-2 in conference play — while the Bears dropped their fourth game out of their last five contests to fall to 4-5 — 1-4 in conference contests. Missouri State looked poised to steal

the win late in the game after going up 18-17 with only 42 seconds left on the clock. Indiana State dug deep into their bag of tricks and dialed up what many are calling “The Memorial Miracle.” The Bears squibbed the kickoff following their go-ahead field goal, in hopes of avoiding a big return. The Sycamores recovered the ball and set in motion one of the most exciting plays of the day in college football, eventually being picked as the third-best play in SportsCenter’s top ten plays of the day.
The hidden-ball play worked to perfection as redshirt-freshman Aaron Kiilebrew, who head coach Mike Sanford dubbed “the fastest man on our football team,” took the ball out of the six-man huddle and sprinted up the sideline after making two defenders miss. He was eventually tackled at the Missouri State 38-yard line. The play energized the Sycamore sideline and all 4,799 fans in attendance. “When you get a short field and you know you only need about 20 yards to

get into field-goal range, it gives you confidence and momentum that you can tell went through our offense,” said senior quarterback Mike Perish. Indiana State went 18 yards in five plays to set up sophomore kicker Eric Heidorn for the go-ahead field-goal attempt. The kick sailed through the uprights with just six tics left on the clock and the rest, as they say, is history. Sanford praised the grit and FOOTBALL CONTINUED ON PAGE 12

Shelter-in-place drill to occur in November
University Police will patrol the halls much like they did during the Sept. 18 shooting threat in the shelter-in-place drill scheduled to occur in Holmstedt Hall in November. The monthly system test will be cancelled to avoid confusion (Photo by Ayden Jent).
The Indiana State University Police Department is required to conduct an emergency drill each semester on the university campus. For this reason, ISU Communications and Marketing sent out an email that said, “This notice is to inform the campus community that there will be a drill at Holmstedt Hall in the month of November. The drill will be a shelter-inplace exercise.” Shelter-in-place will begin once the All Hazards Siren has gone off and Emergency Notification Text Messages have been issued. All Holmstedt Hall occupants are expected to lock nearby doors to offices, classrooms and building entrances. Once the doors are locked, lights are to be turned off and everyone inside the building will be asked to hide in locations where they are unseen from windows and hallways as if there was an active shooter on campus. University police officers will then walk through the building and will count “casualties.”
Once the officers finish their walkthrough and it is complete, an “all clear” message will be issued to all. This shelter-in-place drill will last no more than 20 minutes, according to the notice. Faculty, staff and students are encouraged to prepare for this drill set for sometime in November by looking up emergency procedures. In the notice, people of the ISU community were asked to refer to the Public Safety website for more information on emergency preparedness. Everyone is recommended to watch the “run, hide, fight/responding to an active shooter” video and to review the ISU Emergency Response Plan that is also located on the same website. According to the notice, “To avoid any confusion, the testing of the Campus Wide Emergency Notification System normally scheduled for the first Tuesday of each month will be cancelled for the month of November.”
Presidential program proposes student loan forgiveness ‘Pay As You Earn’ aspires to help students stay afloat after college
Jonathan Baker Reporter President Barack Obama has created a program to help recent college graduates pay off their student loans at a lower monthly rate with a program called Pay As You Earn. This program allows graduates to make payments at 10 percent of their discretionary income — income above poverty level — and after 20 years, any remaining balance is forgiven. Generally, according to the website studentaid.ed.gov, students who qualify are borrowers whose federal student loan debt is higher than their annual discretionary income or represents a significant portion of their annual income. “What this program is doing is giving student borrowers a way out,” said Crystal
Baker, Director of Financial Aid at ISU. “It’s giving them options to meet their obligations without trashing their credit score and hurting them in the future.” Many students see this new program as a good thing that can help take away some of the worries about life after college. Mary Kinney, a junior biology major, believes this relieves stress from students. “I know a lot of people that are having trouble after graduating college getting a job and can’t necessarily pay back the student loans they have,” Kinney said. “So at least they [the government] are doing something about it.” However, there are opponents to the Pay As You Earn program. The worry is that the government will be giving away money that it will not get back, so that aid that is not repaid will have to be made back somewhere.
This generally means either higher taxes or bigger national debt. Yet Baker brings up a point. “National student loan default rates are around 13 percent, and defaulting is the worst option. What is worse, losing some money on interest payments or losing all of it because your borrowers simply default?” Students tend to support the program. “There are pros and cons to it, but I think it’s a good thing,” Kinney said. Another worry is that students or Universities either take out more loans or raise tuition rates because of this Pay As You Earn program. “Indiana State University prides itself on being able to offer a high quality college education while keeping the cost of that education down so it is a good investment for the student,” Baker said.
Baker said the average indebtedness for an ISU undergraduate is around $22,000, which is lower than the national average reported by usnews.com. As far as the student is concerned, “It depends on the type of person if they are honest or not,” Kinney said. Baker encourages students to be as frugal as they can now, because that behavior will help them secure a more comfortable future. So the Pay As You Go program is offering what some students believe as peace of mind about their college education, reinforcing the belief that getting a degree is still a great investment. It is easy to worry about the job market and the economy and what they will be like after college, and this program was created to help ease that burden, both mentally and financially.

Journalism Entrepreneur course to be offered in Spring 2015 Shawntale Jones Reporter
Lori Henson, a journalism lecturer, will be presenting the new Journalism Entrepreneur course that Indiana State University will offer in Spring 2015 (Photo by Gary Macadaeg).
This coming spring semester, Indiana State University plans to offer a Journalism Entrepreneur course to be presented by Lori Henson. Henson is a journalism lecturer for the communications department. “Basically, this course grew out of a fellowship I did in January,” Henson said. “[ISU] intended to offer the course this fall, but [ISU] needed more time to organize and publicize it, so we moved it to spring semester.” According to an article by Karley Hadler, “Entrepreneurial journalism is a field of media shaped by entrepreneurs who develop new business models and innovative projects. Entrepreneurial journalism values quality reporting and focuses on the future of journalism.” Henson was one of 15 journalism professors from around the country selected to participate in a week-long conference sponsored by the Scripps
Howard Newspaper Company. Hadler wrote, “The conference took place at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism at Arizona State University, [a school] widely recognized as having one of the nation’s premier professional journalism programs. Conference participants were able to design a sample semester-long course in entrepreneurial journalism and were taught techniques of business development.” At the conference, Henson and other journalism educators studied how journalism will look in the next five to 10 years and explored other ways news can be sold. “The goal of the conference was to help professors develop ideas for incorporating entrepreneurship in the classroom,” wrote Hadler. “I will be teaching this as a topics course in Communication,” Henson said. “Students from any department can register.”

Citizens are being denied voting rights Voter identification laws make it so that those without IDs cannot vote. The reasoning behind this is to prevent voter fraud, but voter fraud is not a common occurrence — it’s very rare for someone to use someone else’s identity to vote. Low-income Columnist families and minorities are affected most by voter ID laws. Voter ID laws are like a modern-day poll tax; just another way to keep people from voting and keeping the current politicians in power as they make laws that are only helpful to people in the demographic who voted for them. If these people had the ability to vote the same as everyone else, they could vote for things that matter to them like better socialized health care, higher minimum wage and better, more complete welfare. There is a difference between people who have an ID but choose not to vote and people

who cannot get IDs and want to vote. It is their choice if they choose not to vote but it is not their choice if they do not get the opportunity to vote. Voter ID laws keep minorities and low-income citizens from voting because they typically do not have the time, money or transportation to get a state-issued ID which they would need to register to vote and to vote at the polls. This is unfairly discriminating against low-income citizens. To get an ID, one needs to go to their local Bureau of Motor Vehicles. This takes away time from them being able to work since the BMV is often only open on normal work days in normal work hours. Also, when they get to the BMV, they need several documents: their birth certificate, their social security card and proof of address in the form of mail. Getting a replacement birth certificate or social security card is going to take even more time away from working. This will lose them money or even cause them to lose their job. This would also require them to travel, which can be
an additional burden because many low-income families do not have a car or access to public transportation. This is a big restriction keeping them from voting. That isn’t even including the amount of money they would need to spend to get these. A new birth certificate in Indiana costs $10 and a state ID costs $11.50. Many low-income households do not make enough to afford these fees on top of their other expenses. Many low-income individuals and families are living paycheck-to-paycheck and do not have the resources or funds to put toward an ID. This makes it so that many people cannot have their voices heard. Everyone should have an equal opportunity to be active participants in their government. It is their constitutional right to be able to vote if they choose so. It is not OK ever to restrict someone’s rights. America was founded on everyone being equally represented. No taxation without Voter identification laws prevent citizens representation. But these people are who want to vote from being able to being taxed without being represented. actually vote at elections (Clipart.com).
United States and hospitals buckle down on Ebola scares
T.C. Wampler Columnist
We all knew that it would come to an end at some point but I never would have guessed it would have been from, as Google put it, “severe internal bleeding.” Yes, we are talking about Ebola here and more specifically, how one of the most medically advanced countries could have messed up so bad. I have conflicting thoughts about the Ebola outbreak, should we help or run with our tail between our legs? America: the beautiful, the brave and the seriously unprepared for Ebola. The
outbreak of an easily transmitted sickness like Ebola makes people scared and on-edge about helping those in need. Having some of the world’s best medical care, our door has remained open, allowing those who are not sick to seek refuge in our country, if they can afford it. This allowed a man to contract the virus, board a plane, enter the United States and expose hundreds of people to the virus before seeking medical attention. He sat in the hospital for hours waiting to see a doctor — no one knows how many he touched — and then was sent home. He then returned days later only to be diagnosed with the virus and then died from it.

Ebola virus comes to the United States
Currently, there are two patients in the city of Chicago being monitored in isolation for Ebola-like symptoms. One patient is being monitored at the University of Chicago Medical Center and the other is being monitored at Rush University Medical Center. ABC mentioned Columnist 7that News the two patients were most likely never exposed to the virus, and the Chicago Department of Public Health stated that there is no worry for public health. From my research on the virus, as well as having doctor insight and knowledge about the virus, I believe there should be worry for public health to a certain degree. The virus is extremely fatal, and kills in approximately one to two weeks. Ebola was originally a virus that infected a person in Liberia near the Ebola River, hence the name of the virus. The virus

formal training of what to do with the sick man and therefore exposed some 200 people to the virus. One infection turns into 200 and then 4,000 and you see where I am going with this. We know what countries are infected but we still allow those countries to fly planes here. This is madness and also why I get so conflicted. We have some of the best medical minds in the world, so why not allow those people to come here? We can treat them and end Ebola before it starts.
attaches to any single cell’s surface of the body, attacks the cell’s nucleus and puts its viral DNA inside the cell, eventually making the cell explode. Like in most viral infections, this process releases many particles of the deadly virus to spread around the body. These particles are now part of the Ebola virus, and will continue to repeat on any cell they find in the body. The virus attacks the mucous membrane and goes for the lymph nodes, like those under the jaw. Ultimately, it attacks the immune system, preventing the body from fighting off the virus. Like most viruses function in a host, it spreads from cell to cell at a rapid pace. The first and early symptoms of Ebola are severe headaches, muscle pain, fever, weakness, diarrhea, vomiting and abdominal/stomach pain. These symptoms usually occur two to 21 days after the exposure to Ebola; however, the average range is eight to 10 days. Later and more advanced symptoms of Ebola are red flaky rash-like patches on the skin that don’t itch, as well as bleeding from the ears, mouth, eyes and nose.
Considering what we already know about the virus, I believe that President Obama and the United States should take extreme precaution about every individual’s hygiene and be sure to keep them and their families sanitary as best as possible. Currently, the rate and spread of the virus in the United States is very low, but Ebola is already here in our country, partially — if not mostly — because of Obama allowing flights to continue to go in and out of the country. Although it’s a smart idea to keep the flights flowing in between the countries, there must be a way to devise a plan to prevent people with obvious signs of flu-like sicknesses to be barred from flights coming in or out of the United States. On Saturday, a JetBlue flight from San Juan that landed in Chicago, Illinois, at 7 p.m., had a medical emergency during the flight where a 40-year-old-looking male appeared to be bleeding out of his ears and eyes. The plane was quarantined during flight for a period of time, but when the
plane landed, authorities decided to let everyone off the plane. Even though Ebola is contagious through bodily fluids, not airborne, this could be considered a very dangerous decision to let everyone from the plane go. Of course, the man was provided as much medical attention as he could get on the plane, as well as more aid when they landed. I believe that every individual in the United States — even though the threat of Ebola is currently low in this country — needs to be as sanitary as they ever were before and take precaution when sharing drinks, foods, utensils and other items they usually would share with others, especially when contacting bodily fluids such as saliva. When someone is noticeably sick, regardless, try to stand clear of catching whatever they have, because no one knows yet if Ebola has reached other states in the country. I encourage students to wash their hands before and after eating, after using the restroom and after physical contact to help prevent the spread of terrible diseases such as Ebola.
Dozens of doctors and nurses who want to help have left the states to help those who do not have access to doctors or hospitals. America is doing their part to help by providing food, medicine and medical professionals to the infected area. I see no point in letting anyone into the country. If we are going to be humanitarians and keep our borders open then we should flag every flight that has someone from one of the infected countries and direct them to Dallas. From there they — the entire plane — should be quarantined and everyone tested to ensure they do
not have the virus. Once they pass they would be let go, and if they failed they would receive medical treatment. This would keep the exposure down and make the humanitarians happy. However, the CDC says they have a plan to respond faster and with greater accuracy to suspected Ebola cases. They understand that what they did was not acceptable and they have promised the same measures that Africa workers are getting, like protective suits and appropriate training. They promise that a rapid-response unit will be sent out even before lab
reports are finalized. Not only has the CDC changed their policy about Ebola but hospitals are also changing how they take patients in. If someone is showing signs of Ebola, they will be taking travel history first and then everything else second. They will keep an updated map of the Ebola outbreak on hand to reference if someone has been outside of the country so they can have a fast response to the situation. Hospitals are hoping to spot Ebola sooner so they can keep transmission down and cure the sick quicker.

Empowered: Miss Ebony 2014 opens up Marissa Schmitter Reporter The Miss Ebony pageant is not a typical beauty pageant. It is a pageant that empowers women to show off their poise and elegance. Miss Ebony gives women an opportunity to show off their qualities through interviews, talent and formal dress wear. Although Indiana State University held the Miss Ebony pageant a few weeks ago, it still feels like yesterday to Youstina Nussar, who took home the title on Oct. 11. Nussar, a freshman at ISU, is furthering her education in civil engineering. Nussar’s father helped his sponsor’s child get into ISU, and so when it came time for Nussar to go to college, he thought ISU fit the bill. When she looked more into ISU, she found the results pleasing. “What I found was really impressive, especially when I heard about their warm love towards the students and how they helped them to succeed in their pathway,” Naussar said. Nussar was born and raised in Saudi
Arabia; however, she is Egyptian. She used to go back to Egypt every year to revisit her home culture. For her talent portion of the Miss Ebony pageant, she even demonstrated an Egyptian dance for the audience to show off her roots. Nussar is just a normal college student, though. In her free time she enjoys watching her favorite television show, Ellen DeGeneres, and hanging out with her friends. Nussar said she isn’t the typical “pageant girl.” “I was one of the naughtiest girls in school but at home, the most innocent child you’d have ever met,” Nussar said. Her past didn’t stop her from trying to be Miss Ebony. “When I heard about it from one of the meetings of [the African Student Union], I decided to give [it] a try since I’m confident enough about myself,” Nussar said. It was stressful for Nussar to compete in the pageant; however, she still enjoyed the experience.
She now has great memories of the pageant and she already misses the other contestants. They made jokes and “laughed to death” and always solved a problem if something went wrong. However, she had no idea that she would win. “I did not at all expect to win the pageant and it was a wonderful gift that I won,” Nussar said. Nussar’s platform, or the issue she would like to see improvement in, was empowering women. She would like to help empower women all over campus. She will be beginning events on campus soon. “Right now, I am in the process of doing it and I promise it will be worthy to attend,” Nussar said. ISU has given Nussar the experience of a lifetime by crowning her Miss Ebony 2014. Nussar has the power to give back to the ISU campus and empower women. She will always remember this time in her life thanks to the opportunities ISU has to give.

Union Board game show event a big ‘deal’ ‘Let’s Make a Sycamore Deal’ shows students a good time
Shawntale Jones Reporter Indiana State University’s very own Union Board Special Events Committee decided to host “Let’s Make a Sycamore Deal” game show and social which took place in the HMSU Dede 1 from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. on Thursday. The Union Board is responsible for events such as Homecoming and many of the events that take place on campus to get students involved and make sure they’re enjoying themselves. The game show was the Halloween version of the “Let’s Make A Deal” show, hosted by celebrity Wayne Brady. The event offered prizes such as gift cards, Blu-ray and DVD players, board games and raffle giveaways for the participating audience members. Students were randomly selected to come down and participate in the game show to win prizes. Senior communication major and member of the Union Board’s Special Event Committee Dierre Littleton
thinks that the event went well and was excited to see how much students enjoyed it. “The purpose of Let’s Make a Sycamore Deal was to get student participation and to cater to the ideas and interest of students,” Littleton said. “We always get great turnouts when we host events that are game-based. What we have learned is that students are more likely to come out if it is something that they are interested in, and if prizes are involved.” Union Board’s goal was to create an event that was so popular that students would tell friends about it, boosting attendance at future events. “Our committee hosts events that are hands-on, creative and require you to have fun. It is our great hope that when students attend events by Union Board that they want to join to provide the same experience for other students,” Littleton said. “The committee worked long hours to make sure this event was successful, and it showed during the tenure of the game. We wanted to
make sure the game was perfect for the students so they could get the ultimate experience of the actual game show.” Many students in the crowd said they loved the event and thought it was lots of fun. Aubrye Cain, a sophomore elementary education major, said she enjoyed herself at the event and hopes they have it again next year. “I think it was fine except for the not-winning part,” Cain said. Riaunah Washington, a senior human development and family studies major, said she also had lots of fun at the event. “I think the event was fun although I didn’t win,” Washington said. “The event was funny and interesting. I liked the fact that it actually made you think about the answers and I also loved how helpful everyone in the audience were willing to help each other and participate in the event.”

Gaming on the Big Screen offers food, friends, ‘FIFA’ Sycamore Gaming had their first Gaming on the Big Screen event on Saturday night. Gaming on the Big Screen was a free event in Dede 3 that gave students a chance to socialize and have fun with video games. This event provided Indiana State University students with free pizza, soda and the opportunity to play video games with friends. Justin Morris, a junior aviation management major and president of Sycamore Gaming, said that Gaming on the Big Screen is an event that aims to give students an activity on the weekend that will keep students in the ISU community. “We want to get students to get together,” Morris said. “Some people might think that it’s all about recruiting but students normally go home on the weekends and we just want them to stay here in the community and just have fun. It’s about collaborating with gamers to get students involved. We want them to feel welcome at ISU because it’s a great campus.” Morris says that Sycamore Gaming plans to hold another event in November to increase community on campus. “We are also working with LEAF and RHA to build a community in the residence halls on campus and online events too,” Morris said. Students can gain friends through gaming because Sycamore Gaming is all about building a community. “It’s about building a community of gamers,” Morris said. “We also hang out outside of the organization too. We do
homework together. We go to Buffalo Wild Wings together.” Drew Garnes, a senior human development and family studies major, said they played “NBA 2K15,” “FIFA 15” and “Call of Duty: Black Ops 2” during Saturday’s event and they will be changing up the video games they play every time. Once Sycamore Gaming has more members, they can go online and tell them what games the students want and once there is enough demand for a certain game, they will have it for the students at these events. “None of the decisions come from the board of operations; it all comes from the students because we are all for the students because we’re gamers too,” Morris said. Jordan Clark, a sophomore communication major and Sycamore Gaming representative, said they will have monthly tournaments within their club and with other organizations as well. “If Gaming on the Big Screen sounds like a good time to you [students], then students will like to know that Sycamore Gaming will have another event during study week to give students a chance to relax,” Clark said. Garnes says that it’s a simple decision for Indiana State students to make. “It’s pretty simple: come out, hang out, play video games and meet people,” Garnes said. “Just come out and play with us,” Morris said. “You don’t have to be a huge game fanatic but if you’re looking for something to do besides Netflix then just come out and play with us.”

Men claim team title, Lucas leads Sycamore women Kevin Jenison
ISU Media Athletic Relations It was a surprising finish to some at the 2014 Missouri Valley Conference Cross-Country championships as the Indiana State men’s cross-country team claimed their ninth MVC championship Saturday at Southern Illinois University. Pre-championship favorite Bradley won the women’s team title. “I knew going in that there were up to seven teams that had a chance to win the championship,” John McNichols, Indiana State men’s cross-country coach, said. “And it took every man on the team to win this title.” Sycamore junior John Mascari joined some rather elite company as he won his third straight MVC men’s individual title in dominating fashion as he finished in 23:48.21 and 11 seconds better than runner up Sam Penzenstadler of LoyolaChicago, who was second in 23:59.35. On the women’s side, Indiana State finished seventh in the team race and were led by senior Nicole Lucas, who earned All-Conference recognition with a career best finish — 14th — in the eighth-best time in school history of 17:38.71. Indiana State’s Taylor Austin was named the MVC Women’s CrossCountry Freshman of the Year as the top freshman finisher at the championships. McNichols received his ninth MVC Coach of the Year award in cross-country. The race for the men’s team title went back and forth throughout the 8,000-meter race and when the last competitor crossed the finish line, the Sycamores and Salukis of Southern Illinois were tied with 73 points each. The tie was broken according to NCAA rules with Indiana State awarded its ninth title and the Salukis’ runner-up after a two-year reign as MVC champion. Indiana State and Southern Illinois actually tied for the men’s title in 2004 before the tie-breaking rule was implemented. It has been either the Sycamores or Salukis holding up the men’s trophy every year since with Indiana State claiming six of the next 10 championships.
“Today, it was just our time,” McNichols said. “Southern Illinois ran a great race, as did Bradley, as did Illinois State, Loyola and Drake. It was a great meet and just showed you how tight the race was. It could have gone either way. What a great meet for our guys, a great effort man for man.” Pre-championship favorite Bradley was third with Illinois State fourth, Wichita State fifth, Drake sixth, LoyolaChicago seventh, Northern Iowa eighth and Evansville ninth. Only two others have won three titles in the annuls of MVC Cross Country as Mascari joined Mornay Annandale of Wichita State and Stelios Marneros of Southern Illinois as the only three-time winners. No one has won four titles and Mascari will have that opportunity a year from now. “Early on, I got a little antsy but I looked back and saw my teammates, which kept me focused,” Mascari said. “I made my move at the 4K. I looked back after I finished and saw all my teammates coming across which was a great feeling.” Mascari received the MVC Men’s Athlete of the Year award for his championship and was a member of the All-Conference team along with Taylor Head, who finished 10th in 24:36.15. Behind them were sophomore David Timlin, senior Tristan Selby and freshman Levin Taylor. Timlin put on a late charge to finish 17th in a career-best 24:51.77 with Selby 20th in 24:58.12 and Taylor 25th in a career best 25:05.78. Also running for Indiana State were sophomore Andrew Kump, freshman Logan Hambrock and sophomore Daniel Swem. The Indiana State women were picked to finish seventh in the prechampionship poll and that was where they finished despite seven of the eight runners recording career bests during the 5,000-meter event. “The highlight of the day for us was Nicole Lucas,” John Gartland, Indiana State women’s cross-country coach said. “It was her highest finish ever and it was a hard earned 14th place. She was in the lead pack for most of the race and ran her

guts out. Her career is not quite done but it was a great finish to her career in the conference.” Pre-championship favorite Bradley won the team title with 39 points with Illinois State a distant second with 71 points. Southern Illinois finished third with Wichita State fourth, Northern Iowa fifth, Loyola-Chicago sixth, Indiana State seventh, Drake eighth, Evansville ninth and Missouri State 10th. “The race was really good and the competition tough,” Lucas said. “I tried to get myself up in the top 15 from the get-go. I was working the whole way and know I did the best I could.” Lucas was followed by freshman Taylor Austin, who ran to 21st place in 17:55.06
which is the 17th fastest 5K in school history and freshman Jessie Conley who finished 30th in the 23rd-fastest time in school history at 18:09.37. Sophomore Sydney Dickerson was 46th, sophomore Natalie Nolting 54th, freshman Danielle Muse 55th, freshman Victoria Collins 65th and freshman Aleksey Green 69th. “Taylor Austin ran well as our No. 2 runner,” Gartland said. “Jessi Conley had her best race of the season. Our team place as dependent on our fourth and fifth runners. Our strategy was for them to come up late and it just didn’t work out.” Bradley junior Caitlin Busch won the individual title in 17:04.43 with Northern Iowa’s Alex Wilson a close second in 17:07.82.

Sycamores succumb to rival Redbirds Sophomore outside hitter Bree Spangler recorded another doubledigit kill performance but Indiana State couldn’t overcome league-leading Illinois State as it fell in three sets on Friday night. Indiana State drops to 15-9 overall and 7-5 in Missouri Valley Conference play. The Sycamores put up a strong offensive front, hitting .283 behind Spangler’s 13 kills on a .400 hitting percentage. Junior middle blocker Cassandra Willis added seven kills while senior middle blocker Kyla Thomas and freshman outside hitter Sarah Peterson each brought down six kills. “Bree Spangler continued to be a driving force for us tonight, but Illinois State showed why its undefeated in this league,” Indiana State head coach Traci Dahl-Skinner said. “We will take this loss and learn from it as we move forward and advance as team.” Freshman defensive specialist Danielle Waedekin led the Sycamores with 12
digs in the back row while junior setter Erika Nord dished out 27 assists and contributed eight digs. Illinois State was powered by freshman Jaelyn Keene who posted a .625 hitting percentage and three service aces, as the team hit .308 overall. Senior libero Emily Orrick’s 16 digs and setter Kaitlyn Early’s 35 assists helped guide the Redbirds to a balanced offensive attack. In set one, Indiana State kept it close on a Redbird attack error to make it 1012. They got within one at 18-19 on a Peterson kill but ISU closed the set on a 6-3 run to win 25-21. Peterson tied up the second set at 12-12 on a kill but that’s as close as the Sycamores came, falling 18-25. A service ace by Early tacked on a four-point lead that Indiana State couldn’t recover from. However, Indiana State continued to push as a kill by Spangler and service error made it 17-23 but the Redbirds

finished off the set with a kill from Keene. Despite hitting .353 in the third set, the Sycamores couldn’t hold on as it fell 19-25. Spangler recorded four of her kills in the frame, as the team was limited to just two attack errors. Illinois State jumped out front early,
but a kill by Spangler made it 5-6. However, a six-point run by the Redbirds broke the set open. The Sycamores return home to ISU Arena on Nov. 7-8 when it hosts Bradley and Loyola. Both match times are set for 7 p.m. Story by ISU Athletic Media Relations
Heidorn and Killebrew named Co-Special Team Players of the Week Ace Hunt ISU Media Athletic Relations Eric Heidorn and Aaron Killebrew combined in the fourth quarter to make a difference for the Indiana State Sycamores in their 20-18 victory over visiting Missouri State on Saturday. Sunday they combined to be named Missouri Valley Football Conference Co-Special Teams Players Of The Week. It marks the first career-league weekly honor for both players. Eric Heidorn converted a go-ahead 30-yard field goal with 2:06 remaining against the Bears to give the Sycamores a 17-15 advantage. The drama wouldn’t end there: Missouri State counterpunched with a 10-play drive that was capped with a 41-yard field goal with 42 seconds on the clock to push the Bears ahead 18-17. Needing a big return, Aaron Killebrew — called the fastest player on the team by Sycamore head coach Mike Sanford — provided the winning spark to Indiana State’s chances. MSU elected to try a squib kick and the ball was fielded at the ISU 30-yard line. Indiana State

would retreat five yards into a huddle formation of six players in an apparent attempt to down the ball to conserve time. Suddenly, the huddle broke with the players taking off in two different directions with each player simulating
the fact that they had the ball. Killebrew in fact had the football and was able to elude two Missouri State defenders before he went off to the races before being hauled in at the MSU 38yard line. The play has gained national notoriety
over the weekend as it was selected as ESPN SportsCenter’s No. 3 top play as well as ESPN.com’s best trick play in all of college football for Nov. 1. The hidden ball play has been also featured prominently on both Yahoo! Sports and SB Nation. A YouTube clip of the play has been featured on several different national platforms and currently has almost 750,000 views in less than 24 hours since it was posted. Heidorn came back in and connected on a 38-yard field goal with six seconds remaining as the game-winner gave the Sycamores a 20-18 lead. The ISU special teams made a stop on the ensuing kickoff and Connor Underwood as well as Kendall Walker combined on one final tackle to secure the victory. The Sycamores currently stand in a tie for fourth place in the league standings with Northern Iowa. Indiana State will face South Dakota State in the regular season home finale on Saturday, Nov. 8. Kickoff at Memorial Stadium is set for 1:05 p.m.

determination of his players, lauding the heart they showed at the end of the game. “I’m really proud of our team,” Sanford said. “I’m proud of our team’s poise in the midst of a lot of adversity, a lot of ups and downs, but I was very proud of the way our team kept fighting.” The Bears were first on the board with a touchdown early in the first quarter. It took just two plays for Missouri State quarterback Kierra Harris to find receiver Zac Hoover for a 37-yard touchdown. They missed the extra point, putting the Bears up 6-0. Missouri State recovered the ensuing on-side kick, but failed to move the ball, going three-and-out. Indiana State would make them pay on the next possession. Sophomore running back LeMonte Booker gouged the Bear defense on the first play of the drive, rushing 87 yards before finally being forced out of bounds at the Missouri State
Monday, Nov. 3, 2014 • Page 12 nine-yard line. Two plays later, Perish found sophomore wide receiver Robert Tonyan Jr. in the end zone for the touchdown and a 7-6 lead. Perish finished the game 18-38 for 144 yards with a touchdown and an interception apiece. Perish needs just one more touchdown to tie the school record of 40 touchdown passes in a career, currently held by Jeff Miller. Booker ended up with 116 rushing yards on 12 attempts, for a gaudy 9.7 yards per rush. Indiana State extended their lead early in the second quarter when redshirt-freshman running back Dimitri Taylor capped off the nineplay, 50-yard drive with a oneyard touchdown plunge to put the Sycamores up 14-6. The Bears weren’t going to go away without a fight, however, scoring on their very next drive. Harris found Gannon Sinclair for a 20-yard scoring strike that brought Missouri State to within two points. The two-point conversion failed, leaving the Bears down 14-12. The Indiana State defense held the
Bears out of the end zone on three straight and-goal plays, but Missouri State still took the lead early in the fourth quarter, after spending the third quarter trading punts with ISU for 15 minutes, 15-14. An interception in Missouri State territory by junior defensive back Travis Starks set up Indiana State with a chance to reclaim the lead. A one-yard rush and two incomplete passes gave Heidorn a chance to redeem himself after missing a fieldgoal attempt earlier in the fourth quarter. Redemption was his, as the kick went through the uprights and gave Indiana State a 17-15 lead with just over two minutes left in the ball game. Missouri State would take the lead on their ensuing drive, but it was the Sycamores and their Memorial Miracle that proved to be too much for the visiting Bears. Indiana State hosts its final home game of the season next Saturday, when South Dakota State comes to town. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. and can be heard on the radio at 95.9 WDKE. On Saturday the Sycamore football team defeated the Missouri State Bears with a last-minute hidden ball play, which gave them a final score of 20-18. The Sycamores will be back in action next Saturday against South Dakota State (Photos by Gary Macadaeg).
