By Alex.Halsted @iowastatedaily.com As the ball rocketed to the floor for match point, players screamed, fans stormed onto the court and the ISU volleyball to-do list became a little shorter. “We have our list of things we’ve never done before, and that was one of them — we’ve never beat Nebraska at home,” said coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “So it’s nice to check that off.” No. 25 Iowa State defeated No. 1 Nebraska 3-1 (25-23, 25-22, 20-25, 25-21) Saturday to cross off a second feat — the victory was the program’s first-ever against a top-ranked team. The Cyclones (6-4) got off to a quick start winning the first two sets 25-23, 25-22 to set up the opportunity for a sweep. Nebraska (8-1) played at its best in the third set to

Job placements soars Aerospace ranked first in graduates hired
By Charles.O’Brien @iowastatedaily.com

A rising student population and a record size freshman class all compound into a squeeze of available oncampus living area. Because of the limited space, the Department of Residence has decided to add on seven additional apartment buildings at Frederiksen Court. Each building will contain 24 units giving the university an additional 672 beds. The apartment buildings are to be situated around the perimeter of Frederiksen Court; three will be on the north side of the complex, one on the west side and three more on the south side. “We are over 100 percent full; it is a burden on our current facilities and
Iowa State has been named one of the premier engineering schools in the nation, according to Aerospace Week and Space Technology Magazine. This publication has deemed Iowa State the No. 1 school in regards to the number of graduates hired in the aerospace and defense industry. An achievement of such caliber places Iowa State’s aerospace engineering department in the same conversation as prestigious schools such as Cal Tech and MIT. What sets Iowa State apart from these schools, however, is “places like Cal Tech and MIT turn out some very high quality students, but they don’t turn out very many students,” said Richard Wlezien, professor and

department chairman of the aerospace engineering program. “I teach a freshman class, Introduction to Aerospace Design, and it’s based on the MIT course. When MIT teaches the class, they teach it to 35 students; when I teach the class, I teach it to 230 students.” Wlezien said Iowa State is not only up to par with the quality of students it produces but is also exceptional in terms of quantity. Given the readiness of graduates for the real world and the promising future of job availability in the aerospace and defense field, this level of success appears to be sustainable. “There are jobs in aerospace engineering, and it doesn’t mean that everyone has to be in aerospace engineer-
ing,” Wlezien said. “There are other fields that the aerospace companies hire. The challenge aerospace companies have right now is their workforce is aging, and they’re looking to replace those people, so there are opportunities.”

the target,” Cook said of the Cyclones. Having formerly been Big 12 rivals, Johnson-Lynch said the Cornhuskers always come ready to play. “I’ve always felt Nebraska really, really prepares for us,” Johnson-Lynch said. “Of most of the teams they play in the season, they don’t want to lose to Iowa State.” On Saturday, Nebraska did just that for only the second time ever. With the victory against its former Big 12 foe, Iowa State is now 2-80 all-time in the series. The other lone victory came in 2009 during a five-set thriller in Lincoln, Neb. “We still have that monkey on our back,” Johnson-Lynch said of the team’s series with Nebraska. “Any time you beat them, you start to believe it’s possible. So next time around you remember we’ve done it before.” After going 2-1 the previous weekend with a loss to unranked Syracuse at home, the victory proved to be a bounce back in the right direction. “I was happy that we beat the No. 1 team; that’s awesome,” said middle blocker Jamie Straube. “But I was more happy with the way we played and the way we came out and worked hard.” The match with Nebraska capped off a difficult preseason for the Cyclones. The team faced top-25 opponents in six of its 10 matches during the first three weeks.
With enrollment up 10 percent in the aerospace program, Wlezien said ISU graduates are primed to take advantage of the aforementioned opportunities for years to come. One current student who has already taken advantage of a great opportunity is Prasad Raman, senior in aerospace engineering who has completed an internship with Boeing. “[It was] a great opportunity to take some of the classroom knowledge and apply that to a real world problem — something that’s difficult to do in a classroom setting,” Raman said. Similar experiences are the norm for other students within the program, as they “come back with practical knowledge that really enhances what they do in the classroom, which is something that contributes to ISU having the highest rate of graduates hired,” Wlezien said. Stepping back to view a broader scale, ISU President Steven Leath explained how Iowa State goes about molding such high-level graduates, not only within the aerospace engineering program but across the university. “We’ve done a really good job at getting that blend between education and training,” Leath said. “Iowa State has found this unique sweet spot to give them a really great education.” To sustain this level of success, Leath believes maintaining a good balance is ideal. “If we can continue to stay in that spot, we’ll do a great job of getting our kids jobs,” Leath said.

Following some difficult losses, Saturday’s victory acted as a boost to team morale. “We needed this win not only for recordsake, but also just for confidence,” said outside hitter Rachael Hockaday. “We’ve played a really tough preseason; we’ve played a lot of top teams.” As the team checked off two more milestones from its list of things to achieve, it found out what is possible.
Storming the court When people think of “storming” at an athletic event, their minds often shift to football and basketball. On Saturday, “storming the court” applied to volleyball as many of the 3,385 fans in attendance rushed onto the floor at Hilton Coliseum following Iowa State’s upset of No. 1 Nebraska. “The students storming the court is really cool, even though our players get a little nervous about it,” said ISU coach Christy Johnson-Lynch. “I don’t think there’s many volleyball programs in the country where that happens.” Tenisha Matlock, who contributed 13 kills including the one to clinch the match, said her first
experience was enjoyable. “It was wonderful, it was my first time ever being ‘stormed,’” Matlock said. Fans last stormed the court at Hilton for a volleyball match in 2009 when the Cyclones defeated No. 2 Texas. Johnson-Lynch said this memory will carry on for some time. “It’s good recruiting film, good recruiting material to show kids what it’s like to play in Hilton,” Johnson-Lynch said. “It’s a great memory that we’ll keep in our archives and look back on and use a lot over the next few years.”
>>EXPANSION.p1 students have started reacting to not having a community area,” said Associate Director for Facilities Roger Graden. The project is to begin this November and is going to be a two-phase project. The first phase will include three buildings, which are set to be completed July 1, 2013. The second phase includes the remaining four buildings to be completed by the end of December 2013. The idea for this project sprouted at the beginning of the calendar year when enrollment numbers for this school year were finalizing. The thought of adding on at Frederiksen Court was seen as an ideal situation because of the popularity of the apartment-style living. The department began to work with the Iowa State administration who approved the plan, then passed it on to the Iowa State Board of Regents. Later on in the summer the Board of Regents allowed the Department of Residence to hire an architecture firm for the project. The department has one last meeting with the Regents yet in October to approve the budget and the schematic de-

sign of the project. A substantial question arose during this process. One that drew concern from the Iowa State administration — how was this $24 million project going to be paid for? It has been decided that bonds will be issued for the project; the details on this have not been completely worked out yet. Also, the revenue generated from the rental of the buildings will help pay off the cost. “There is no need to increase fees at all. Only the people using the facilities will cover the cost,” said Graden, “A
zero negative effect on the budget is what we anticipate, and our debt ratio will not change. We will see an increase in operating costs, but those will be combated by the increase in revenue.” The department plans to use the same set up and a similar building design plan for the project. Updates from the old plans are set to accommodate the current International Building Code, which is more sensitive to accessible accommodation than the 12-year-old Uniform Building Code.

as Graden are always looking toward the future and trying to figure out the big question about where enrollment is headed. “The Department of Residence has worked hard to help students with transition of life, we offer more for students than living off campus,” said Graden, “We can see this by the number of students coming back to on-campus housing and it is continuing to trend upward.”

Landscape architecture named 10th best By Kayla.Schaudt @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State’s landscape architecture program recently was ranked 10th in the nation among more than 60 landscape programs. This ranking was given to Iowa State based on a survey by DesignIntelligence, a bimonthly publication, in recognition of the success of job placement and the general success of alumni who graduated with a degree in landscape architecture. “I would say that one of the biggest reasons our students succeed is because of our professors here,” said Malinda Cooper, academic adviser for design. “It’s up to them to shape the landscape architects for the workspace and to get them ready for life after graduation.” After graduation, many students with this degree work for smaller
firms that might then be contracted by larger companies to design for them. The companies, which can range from hospitals to restaurants to stores, act as clients for the firms. Landscape architects will have a wide range of jobs available to them after they graduate, including parks and recreation, urban design, site planning, and environmental restoration. They work with the outdoors and plan new or restore old areas. Landscape architects design a landscape using plants, flowers and other modifications or additions to a piece of land. “We really have some great students come through here,” said Douglas Johnston, professor of landscape architecture. “A lot of the praise from this ranking goes to them.” Students are accepted into the landscape architecture program af-

Eisman writes women back into Cold War art Studies in Germany reveal hidden history By Kayla.Schaudt @iowastatedaily.com April Eisman, assistant professor of integrated studio arts, will spend a year in Germany doing research for a book about female artists during the Cold War in East Germany. During the Cold War, it was not easy to make disagreements with the government known. East Germany claimed to have achieved women’s equality but were far from it. There were ways to express anger with the conditions of the time, including showing opinions in art. One of the most notable female artists of this period was Angela Hampel, a woman born and raised in Germany. Eisman recognizes the work done
by Hampel and believes more people should know her story. Eisman was named an American Fellow by the American Association of University Women in order to study female artists in the former East Germany. Eisman speaks fluent German and is using this opportunity to conduct research for a book about Hampel and similar female artists. “This book will show that East Germany had art, and that it had important women artists,” Eisman said. “In Germany, the complexity of East German art is much better known, but the story is dominated by male artists. My intent is to write women back into the story of East German art.” Spending a year in Leipzig, Germany, Eisman is planning to study Hampel’s works and learn more about her life as a woman artist during the Cold War.
“Working [here] enables me to access the primary and secondary materials needed to write the book — from archival files to books and journals and the art itself,” Eisman said. “I will also be able to meet with the other scholars working on East German art.” Eisman has been to Germany at least once a month nearly every year since 2000. This is her second yearlong fellowship. Eisman points out that these paintings have an emphasis on figuration and technical skills. Unlike the West, which focuses on creativity, East Germany art schools constructed lessons around technical skills, figuring that students had the rest of their lives to create a personal style. “It’s not an obvious difference,” said Ingrid Lilligren, professor of integrated studio arts. “It’s subtle. It has to do with the content; it has to do with
the narrative. It’s interesting to think about how hard an artist that lives in an oppressive regime has to work in order to make a statement that could potentially be seen as subversive.” Studying the art of East Germany during the Cold War will give art history scholars a unique look into the struggles of people during a difficult time in German history. “The result was a wide diversity of artistic styles as individual artists found their own artistic voice over the course of several decades,” Eisman said. “The number of students allowed to study art was extremely limited, but the result was that those who graduated were guaranteed employment as artists for the rest of their lives [as long as they didn’t criticize the government].” The stories the artists of East Germany tell are subtle, but during the Cold War, they meant the differ-
History During the Cold War, Germany was split up into East Germany and West Germany. East Germany was patrolled by the Soviet Union and West Germany was patrolled by the United States, the United Kingdom and France.

ence between life and death. “If you want to say something about your horror at the way people are being treated and the conditions of your home country and you know that if you said it in as many words there would be punishment, you have to find subtle ways to do that,” Lilligren said.

Career fair
Engineering career fairs help students Internships are a way to get ahead in engineering
[Career Services] is going to train them to polish that professional image. We know the best practices to make the students appear more marketable.” Roger Bentley
Date and times
The substantive ways Career Services help students come in the form of several workshops advising students on a range of topics stemming from resume creation, professional dress, cover letter writing and etc. Some of these workshops have already taken place but it is not too late to catch the last few before the fair on the 25th. There are also two that take place after the fair. To register for these workshops or to get more information, you can visit the Fall Engineering Career Fair blog (see sidebar). Career Services are also active throughout the entire year, and students are strongly encouraged to utilize this resource at any time to prepare them for their professional future. In terms of what can be expected from the fair, Bentley projects about 4,000 students will attend. Students will be interacting with industry professionals like Amazon, Google and 3M. Roughly 80% of these professionals are Iowa State alums, according to Bentley, which allows for a level of familiarity between student and employer. Within these interactions, many will include students seeking out internships.
“Internships are not required in any of our engineering majors, but they are highly, highly valued,” says Bentley. Many students worry that internships may derail their academic progress but according to Bentley: “You are not falling behind academically, you are really going forward.” “(internships) make their classwork practical.” Also, according to Bentley, the Engineering school requires that all internships be paid and they consider students on internships as full-time students. Because of this, “there are very few drawbacks, if any.” If the time may not quite be right to start seeking out internships or career development opportunities, Erika advises that “[Being] a career fair ambassador would be a great way to start getting involved to see what the career fair is all about.” Trent adds to the importance of simply attending: “When I was a freshman, the career fair was kind of an epic moment for me, it was such a huge event and I knew I wanted to be a part of it and try to leave a stamp on it.” On Tuesday, Iowa State engineering students will have the opportunity to put their own stamp on the event and experience that moment.

The Fall Engineering Career Fair is right around the corner and there are over 280 reasons (or companies) to attend this incredible event. All Engineering students are welcome, from freshman on up. While it may seem insignificant for underclassmen to attend, Trent Moeller, one of two student co-chairs for the Fall fair gives his advice to young students: “Just go there and take it all in, understand the whole context of everything.” One certainly does not have to be seeking an internship or full-time position to obtain a valuable experience. Erika Vaasen, the second co-chair, stresses the importance for students to: “Network and explore; see what potential is out there.” By talking with professionals, taking in the environment, and gaining knowledge, any student can find value from the fair experience. The fair is a fantastic opportunity and resource for students. However, to maximize this opportunity, preparation is crucial. Roger Bentley, manager of both the Fall and Spring career fairs as well as in the Engineering Career Services department, explains how Career Services can aid a student: “The Career Services office is going to train them to polish that professional image. We know the best practices to make the students appear more marketable.”

Installation signals shift in time at ISU Last week, after a stint of pleasant weather, much to our chagrin Ames saw temperatures climb into the 90s again. Though in typical Iowa fashion, the following days found temps getting only into the 60s and 70s, with lows in the 40s overnight. Today, for instance, temperatures are projected to be in the mid-60s, whereas yesterday, they reached into the 80s. And as is also good ol’ Iowan fashion, many of Iowa State’s students have been heard complaining about the weather being too hot one day, then too cold the next. One student was overheard voicing her pleasure over the declining temps because she wanted to wear her Uggs again. Meanwhile, another student was heard complaining about girls wearing their Uggs already. Regardless of what’s on your feet, the general consensus around campus is that the sudden turn in the weather is shocking or even abhorrent. One wonders if calendars have fallen out of favor or something. It is September after all. The seasons change every year at this time. But life in general is about change, and in at least one important way, the climate’s changes over the past few weeks have been a weather vane of important change for Iowa State: Last Friday, Sept. 14, Steven Leath formally began his presidency. Leath has been with Iowa State for several months now, but as of his official installation as president, it appears not only is the fall season here, but a new season of change is upon this university as well. His speech was neither long nor boring but contained a massive amount of vision. He addressed the state of Iowa’s role in supporting land-grant universities, access to and affordability of higher education and outlined partnerships with business and industry in Iowa that would not allow Iowa State to become an “ivory tower.” He reiterated the need for strong activity in research and scholarship yet reiterated that arts, humanities and social science programs are part of a total educational experience. As King Solomon said in Ecclesiastes — or if you like, The Byrds’ 1965 hit song “Turn! Turn! Turn!” — “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven; A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, a time to reap that which is planted. ... A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing.” It is now the season of Leath, and over the course of the coming days, we’ll try to figure out what purposes, both old and new, Iowa State is about to embark upon. Stay tuned.

Food
Who will feed our world?
Photo courtesy of Flickr/sheagunther With no more than 10 percent of the world’s farmland left to produce crops on and a global population of 7 billion people which is projected to reach 9 billion by 2050, America’s agriculturalists need to innovate and design new technologies in order to produce enough food for a growing world.
U.S. farmers face challenge of growing world population
A
s the next generation of Americans, our generation must be prepared for the challenge of feeding a growing world population. Currently, we have more than 7 billion people on the planet who are consuming the food farmers produce on a daily basis. By 2050, the U.S. Department of Agriculture predicts this number may grow to 9 billion, and all Americans will be competing for a meal at the world’s table. The average age of the American farmer is 57, according to the USDA. Currently, only 2 percent of the American population lives on a farm. So who will feed your family? It’s going to take more than an eight-hour day of feeding, planting and harvesting to put food on your family’s table, so please listen up when an agriculturalist would like to explain where your food comes from. Farmers have worked hard to get that steak on your table or those corn flakes in your bowl. We also have a strong interest in the health and well-being of your family. As agriculturalists, we wake up every day providing feed for our animals before we have breakfast and bedding for our animals before we rest our heads. As a next generation agriculturalist, I have a passion for agriculture, and the desire to feed your family for the rest of my life. This interest was nurtured and developed as while growing up on a family farm near Lake City, Iowa. My desire has blossomed during my time at Iowa State, where I am surrounded by other passionate agriculturalists. As
By Andrew.Lauver @iowastatedaily.com farm kids, we learned hard work, tenacity, time management, negotiation skills and a strong sense of land stewardship. I want to give back to agriculture because it has given so much to my family and because I will have the opportunity to provide food for the world. So who else will feed your family and friends? I certainly can’t produce enough food to feed the world. The next generation of agriculturalists is being educated and developed on campuses and family farms around the nation. We’re learning it’s going to take innovation, persistence and passion to feed you. However, agriculturalists must stand up for our technologies and innovations. They seem to create scrutiny and criticism amongst the American population. It is time that we join together in an effort to feed the world. I ask you seek out one of those students on campus who wears cowboy boots, jeans and a hat even when it’s 100 degrees outside. Ask him or her about the importance of utilizing new technology in order to feed the world. You may be surprised by what they have to say. America’s future in this competitive global landscape hinges on our ability to nurture and improve the export of agricultural commodities such as corn, soybeans and livestock to ensure a strong U.S. economy. Our crops and livestock are some of the greatest national resources our country has. Currently, we export roughly 30 percent of the cereal grains we produce to other countries to feed your world. The stronger agricultural exports are, the stronger
the United States’ economy will be. With a growing population, Americans are going to need to constantly strive to be a global leader in food production. Right now, 1.4 billion people live on less than $1.25/day; 1 billion people live on less than 1,800 calories because they cannot afford any more than that. Furthermore, 2.6 billion people in the world live on less than $2/day. The middle class is also expected to increase by 160 percent by the time we reach 2050. All of this is going to result in a stronger demand for that steak or those corn flakes at the world’s table. As the middle class grows, they will continue to demand higher quality protein sources, like meat. As we consume more meat, we will need more livestock that consume cereal grains. Our challenge as agriculturalists is the fact there is no more than 10 percent of the world’s farmland left to produce crops on in the world. Farmers are going to have to produce more food on less land, as farmland is being overtaken by urban sprawl. As the next generation of students to solve the world’s challenges, it is important for us to engage in agriculture by supporting farmers as they dream, innovate and design new technologies to feed the mouths at the world’s table. It’s an exciting time to enter the everchanging world of agriculture, and I can assure you agriculturalists from Ethiopia to Iowa are preparing for the fun and challenging opportunities ahead.

Dining
Use resources, eat healthily
A
s a young student who does not have tons of money, the prices for healthy food in general, and especially on campus, can be quite frustrating. For the past few years, I have been trying to effect a lifestyle change that would lead to long-term health benefits, including weight loss. This lifestyle change has been affected by moving to Iowa, a new environment for me, in several ways. Going from living at home to living at Frederiksen Court was a substantial change for me last year, especially to my diet. I’ll admit, for me, the freshman 15 was unexpected and wouldn’t have been nearly as bad had it not been due to the fact I had begun to rely too much on convenient junk food. Once I realized that I could cook from home, in bulk, not only did I save money, but I started feeling better and slowly began losing weight. Whenever I was on campus, away from my room and with no access to a kitchen, I would File photo: Iowa State Daily have to find alternate means of finding food, and this made the task of losing weight a bit Students fill up their salad plates at Seasons dining center in the Maple-Willow-Larch complex. more difficult.

DO-IT-YOURSELF
GETTING CRAFTY By Sarah Schlueter ISD Style writer With the start of the new school year come new apartments and spaces which need some decoration. There is no need to spend a lot of money on fancy artwork for the walls when you can personalize your own art for a lot less.
Newspaper canvas For this project, all you need is a blank white canvas, newspaper, letter stickers, mod podge, acrylic paint and any kind of embellishments of your choice.
1 2 3 4 5
The first step is to mod podge newspaper onto the canvas with a paintbrush. Let dry.
Next, arrange letter stickers in a quote, saying or your name on the dry newspaper. Paint over the newspaper, but be careful in painting over the stickers since these need to be removed. After the paint has dried, peel the stickers off, and you can see the newsprint underneath. Finally, add buttons, rhinestones or ribbon and your artwork is ready to hang.

Fashion Week for beginners A snapshot from London By Ian Laughead ISD Style writer For all its glitz and glamour, fashion week has a lot of misconceptions. Fashion week is itself a misnomer, with these weeks happening in each fashion capital at least twice a year, and up to six times in Paris, indisputably the world’s central headquarters for high fashion. New York plays the first role every season in the fashion calendar, with editors of major magazines and buyers from stores across the world flying all the way to the city to watch shows during the eight day “week” every February and September. The most recent week ending last Thursday. Currently, the fashion sets are in London to see British designers’ collections, while they
will move this Wednesday to Milan, Italy, to see what Italian designers have dreamed up. The season’s shows will end in Paris at the beginning of October. While it may be only late summer of 2012, the collections on the runway in New York are all intended to sell in stores starting in January of next year, as the fashion system works many months in advance, and even earlier for the men’s shows, which took place in midsummer. In the golden age of haute couture in the 1950s, it was normal for a high end designer to keep his or her collections under tight security so as to deter copy artists. Today, however, everything you see on the runway today will eventually make it down to the mall next spring. Fashion isn’t about the rich women who buy $20,000 dresses anymore; it’s about you.
By Laura Talken Special correspondent OK, London, you win. You are all the right kinds of fabulous. This past Friday kicked off London’s fashion week. Trying not to break an ankle in my 6-inch nude pumps, I walked through the stone archway into Somerset House, home of London’s fashion week. This is the place where fashion week begins and will always be the place where major trends take form. Immediately, I am graced with the presence of every kind of style imaginable. Bloggers and photographers are going crazy, taking pictures of anyone fashion-worthy. I glance to my left and see the grunge/punk look complete with fishnet stockings, a black
Chanel clutch and platform sneakers. To my right, I see the young starlets looking everso-glamorous in their fur-trimmed coats and Christian Louboutin booties. The men are dressed to the nines in suit jackets, bow ties and fabulous fedoras. It is very clear men and women of all ages put a lot of time and effort into their “fashion week look.” I pick up on the latest trend this season: brightly colored tweed jackets and maxi skirts with slits up to the thigh. I am beyond inspired. Now I just need to go shopping... Watch out Paris and New York: London has you beat. Laura Talken, junior in apparel, merchandising and design, is studying at the London College of Fashion and worked for British designer Matthew Williamson’s show, which premiered Sunday.

Cyclones carry on to 3-0 season start
By Stephen.Koenigsfeld @iowastatedaily.com
The week leading up to the ISU football team’s game against Western Illinois, coach Paul Rhoads said the caliber of the FCS team it was facing didn’t matter; the team was going to treat its opponent like any other. And that’s what it did. The Cyclones (3-0) set out to play a Western Illinois team that was 6-23 all time against FBS teams — four of those wins came against Northern Illinois of the Mid-American Conference. With offensive sputters here and there, Iowa State utilized its defense to keep Western Illinois (2-1) at bay. “We’re really controlling things thus far,” Rhoads said. “Limiting big plays, tackling well and playing good team defense.” Rhoads said he had a strong definition of what that meant to him and the defense. “When I say that, I’m talking about 11 guys working to do their job and not more than that,” Rhoads said. “And I think we’re doing that right now.”
The Leathernecks were held to just 178 yards of total offense, including 103 yards rushing and 75 yards passing — the first time since 2004 that Iowa State held a team to fewer than 200 total yards (99 yards in a 23-0 win against Northern Iowa). Senior linebacker Jake Knott prided not only the starting defense on this accomplishment but the second-string defense as well. “Our [second-string] got in there and got a lot of reps and still held their own and still did a fantastic job,” Knott said. “It’s the credit to them and practicing hard every day, not knowing when they’re going to go in.” One statistic that stood out Saturday evening was the turnover margin. Iowa State gave up three turnovers without forcing one. Rhoads said the turnover phase of the game is something with which the team has been struggling. “We win more games losing the turnover battle than anybody in America,” Rhoads said. “I don’t like that, and we’re going to try not to continue it.” There were only five situations when the offense couldn’t make the full trip into the end zone. One of those five led to a 49-yard field goal from
Edwin Arceo while the other four led to punts by punter Kirby Van Der Kamp. The win became not only the third win for the Cyclones this season but the third consecutive game without a return against a Van Der Kamp punt. Van Der Kamp set his high success on being comfortable while punting. “Emotions are a problem,” Van Der Kamp said. “You’ve got to put them behind you and focus on the task at hand.” Three of Van Der Kamp’s four punts were inside the 20-yard line, driving his total to a conferencebest 13. “That could be a difference-maker right there, because if they get just one block, they could be gone,” Van Der Kamp said. “If they don’t even have that opportunity, then they’ll be pinned deep. Van Der Kamp, Knott and the rest of the Cyclones head into a bye week where they will recuperate and prepare for the start of conference play. The next Cyclone kickoff, against Texas Tech, is at home Sept. 29.

Teams take top spots at home
Women race to first, men fall to second behind Missouri By Mark Specht Daily correspondent
Despite using their home meet at the ISU cross-country course as a tuneup for the rest of the 2012 season, the ISU men and women’s cross-country teams managed to take second and first place, respectively, Saturday at the Iowa Intercollegiate meet. In the women’s 6,000-meter race, the Cyclones led with a second-place finish by Samantha Bluske, senior in dietetics, who had a time of 17:58, and took five of the top-eight spots. On the ISU women’s side, Emily Meese, senior in kinesiology and health, finished 22nd overall with a time of 19:39 but is thought to have possibly sprained or pulled an Achilles tendon during the race. “About the last [kilometer,] it tightened up,” Meese said. “Those last couple of steps were pretty painful.” Iowa State scored a 24 to top Missouri, which scored a 35. Missouri senior Bailey Belvis won the race with a time of 17:54. ISU runners Mohamed Hrezi, junior in accounting, and Brian Llamas, freshman in pre-business, finished first and second in the men’s 8,000-meter race, but Missouri, with a score of 25, edged out Iowa State, which had a score of 35. “Coach [Corey Ihmels] really just wanted us to come and take it out easy

and just work our way into it,” Hrezi said. “He didn’t want us to kill it.” Hrezi, who is a first-year transfer, said he was “more surprised than happy” to win because, due to his observance of Ramadan, he did little training for about a month.
“Going out with the guys, I’m not even like top-five,” Hrezi said. “I expected to be top-seven, but I just thought whatever happens happens.” ISU assistant coach Travis Hartke initially described the strategies of both the men and women as “relaxed
and smooth” and during the last half of the race as “moving up through the pack.” When it came to executing the plan, Hartke thought some of the run-

Nebraska natives ‘thrilled’ with upset of No.1 team By Dylan.Montz @iowastatedaily.com Middle blocker Tenisha Matlock remembers hitting the ball, coming down to the ground and looking at Jenelle Hudson, hugging her and saying: “Oh my gosh!” With that final kill from Matlock, the No. 25 ISU volleyball team had just beaten No. 1 Nebraska for the second time in school history. The victory against the Cornhuskers was also Iowa State’s first win ever against a top-ranked team. ISU coach Christy Johnson-Lynch said she was “thrilled” for middle blockers Matlock and Jamie Straube, both hailing from the state of Nebraska, for how they played against a team from their home state. “There’s always a little extra fire for them to play
Nebraska, yet sometimes it works against them where they get too amped up and they don’t play well,” JohnsonLynch said. “I was glad to see them keep their composure and just go after it.” Johnson-Lynch also said Matlock and Straube came to Iowa State as somewhat raw talent but have put themselves in a position to become successful, deserving everything that comes their way. Nebraska coach John Cook said Iowa State’s play from the middle was what the Cornhuskers had seen before but this time, his squad didn’t have much of an answer for the attacks. “They’re the same middles we’ve played the last two years so there’s nothing different,” Cook said. “They’re not doing anything different than they have [before] except they play with great effort and got the

the rest of her teammates that it was nice to have support from them throughout the week leading into the match against Nebraska. “It was a huge win for us,” Straube said. “I was happy that we beat the No. 1 team, and that’s awesome, but I was more happy with the way we played and came out and just worked hard.” Johnson-Lynch said she has been impressed by Straube’s resiliency from match to match after struggling in the beginning of this season. “She’s a tough kid and she perseveres and fights,” Johnson-Lynch said. “She showed tremendous courage after the Friday match against Illinois. She was bad but came back and fought and played great on Saturday. You don’t do that unless you are someone with courage, and I think that’s

Tigers. In the men’s race especially, the Tigers pushed the pace. Llamas said that at one point, a group of Missouri runners were 40 to 50 seconds ahead of the Cyclones’ lead pack. Joe Lynn, coach of the Missouri Tigers’ men and women’s cross-country teams, said it was part of his teams’ strategy to “get out fast,” but overall he just wanted to see the team “get a great workout, run tough and come out healthy.” Lynn said Missouri is probably returning again next year to the race.
what she is. “I’ve got faith in her, and she continues to fight no matter the situation and show really good leadership as a senior.” Matlock said it means a lot to her to beat a team from her home state and that she tries to be a leader by being vocal on the court in hopes of elevating not only her performance but the rest of the team’s play as well. Matlock feels her vocalization calms down the rest of the team if the pressure at the moment is high. “I think it just makes them laugh and makes them forget about any error that they had,” Matlock said with a laugh. “It’s just me. I remember one fan came up and asked if [the coaches] tell me to get excited like that and I said no, and that it was just me. I’m very goofy and very emotional.”
“It’s a great meet and a great course,” Lynn said. For the Cyclones, Hartke said he thinks Iowa State’s teams made some progress. “We made steps in the positive in a lot of places today,” Hartke said of both the men and women’s teams. “Some people ran really well and can get confidence out of it, and honestly some people can learn a lot from it.” The ISU cross-country team’s next race will be the Roy Griak Invitational on Sept. 29 in Falcon Heights, Minn.
