ACRE classes reinstalled at MU Program focuses on diversity, job skills in real estate industry By Julia Pagliarulo
julia.pagliarulo@marquette.edu
After a four-year hiatus, Associates in Commercial Real Estate, or ACRE, will return to Marquette. The program offers a series of courses in property management, construction management and real estate development skills, geared toward preparing participants for future employment in those fields. But to Melissa Goins, a graduate of the program who received her undergraduate and graduate degrees at Marquette and founded the Maures Development Group, ACRE is about more than just the classes it offers.

“The biggest gift beyond curriculum is that real estate is based on who you know and ACRE creates a bridge and a platform for people without opportunities to be exposed to the real estate world,” Goins said. Classes are set to meet once a week at Marquette, the Milwaukee School of Engineering and the Associated General Contractors of Greater Milwaukee beginning on Sept. 23, with the program slated to run for 26 weeks. The class will be composed of 20 students selected from an application process who are all looking to begin a career in real estate. However, for students, simply attending class is not enough to guarantee success in the program and in their future. “You get out what you put in,” Goins said. “ACRE is not a magic bullet and it does not guarantee success. The responsibility is in the hands of the participants to
nurture those connections created by the program.” According to the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), a nonprofit partner of ACRE, the overarching goal of ACRE is to “recruit and train people of color in the city of Milwaukee for professional careers in the commercial real estate industry.” ACRE connects students to professionals in the field which leads to job offers down the road and establishes minorities in the real estate industry. “The large benefit is bringing diversity to a profession that is in need of diversity,” said Mark Eppli, interim dean of the College of Business Administration and creator of ACRE, in an email. The recession in 2010 forced the program’s temporary closing after it boasted 146 graduates over a six-year span. The achievements of its graduates spearhead its return this year.
“Program graduates who were not in the business have since developed hundreds of apartments,” Eppli said. “Additionally, ACRE graduates are commercial real estate loan officers, work for the Department of City Development in Milwaukee and have established a construction contracting company, among others.” Funding from Barry Mandel, a successful real estate tycoon, and the Opus Group are also behind the program’s reemergence, as are partnerships with LISC Milwaukee, the Milwaukee School of Engineering and the Commercial Real Estate Development Association. “When we originally established the program, I was delighted with the community and business outpouring of support for ACRE,” Eppli said. “That support was later revealed in financial support, site visit support, hiring support, and others.”

MUSG amendment fails
Lt. Col. Allen West addressed the Marquette College Republicans Monday night in the Alumni Memorial Union Monaghan Ballrooms to speak about a flat tax rate, workforce development and President Barack Obama’s foreign policy. The former representative of Florida’s 22nd Congressional district said he believes the current system of taxation in the United States does not incentivize the general public to start businesses. “A lot of people up in Washington, D.C. don’t understand that small business owners don’t operate from a corporate business tax rate. Small businesses operate from a personal income tax rate,” West said. West proposes moving from a progressive tax which takes a greater percentage from higher income brackets to a flat tax where most pay the same rate. He feels that this change will increase economic participation. “The most important thing is that everyone has to participate. Right now in the United States we have a tax system where only half the ship is rowing,” West said. The Fox News contributor also spoke about creating a better workforce in order to strengthen America’s economy. “What has built the United States of America in 237 years unlike any country the world has ever known?” he asked, “It is individual indomitable entrepreneurial spirit.” West condemned the American education system for forcing students to memorize material for tests rather than learn critical thinking and communication skills. He argued that this approach does not prepare students for jobs in the modern economy. A key theme of West’s speech was that the Republican Party seeks equality of opportunity while Democrats seek equality

Diversity amendment fails in MUSG Senators demonstrate concern over purpose of new committee
By Joseph Cahill
joseph.cahill@marquette.edu
In the midst of a universitywide campaign to improve diversity on campus, Marquette Student Government senators failed to pass an amendment that would appoint a coordinator of diversity, inclusion and social justice. MUSG President Kyle Whelton, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences and the author of the legislation, said he was disappointed to see the amendment fail. “I respect the views of the senate; there is a reason why we brought this to the senate first,” he said. The senate was two votes short of passing the legislation with 13 voting in the affirmative and five senators voting in opposition to the amendment. “Why do we need a committee that is only focused on diversity, inclusion and social justice?” said Alexander Lech, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences representing Schroeder Hall. “Things like that should be the
duty of every senator here to advocate for every student.” Whelton expressed the need for a continuous plan to address diversity issues, stating that ad-hoc committees would only be in operation during the term of the president who appointed them. “We have never had any type of formal structure for students,” he said. “We need a consistent body where students would be able to talk about their issues in a public forum.” Last year, Whelton explained, MUSG did not hold any ad-hoc committees to address campus diversity. He also said he did not intend the legislation to suggest that senators were not representing students. “We need to be proactive in our efforts, in the past we have waited for students to come to us,” Whelton said. “Personally my belief is it is our job to go out to them. The reason for this committee is to bring together those minds that normally are pigeonholed.” John O’Rourke, a sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences representing McCormick Hall, suggested that students who do not feel represented by MUSG should find other outlets of representation or run for a position.

Marquette Student Government President Kyle Whelton is “disappointed” in the failure of the MUSG Senate to create a diversity committee.
“If someone got elected that you don’t feel comfortable with, then next time, maybe you should run,” O’Rourke said. “If you feel your race or sexual preference is not represented on our student government, then perhaps you need to explore different avenues of running or getting involved.” Several senators spoke in favor of the committee, saying it would provide a stepping-stone to make Marquette a “more

of outcome. To West, equality of opportunity means that all Americans have an equal opportunity to succeed. “Self-esteem is not about waiting around for me to work hard so that you can get your share of prosperity,” West said. The former congressman is also critical of President Obama’s foreign policy. He wrote on his website last month that “the only plausible explanation for many actions taken by President Obama and his administration is that they are working counter to the security of the United States of America.”
West said he believes the Obama administration’s foreign policy is disastrous and dangerous. “Instead of siding with Egypt, President Obama sided with Qatar and Turkey,” West said. “Qatar and Turkey are providing financial support to ISIS. Egypt is fighting against the Muslim Brotherhood. Egypt ousted a Muslim Brotherhood government, and the Obama administration is not supporting Egypt.” When asked during a Q&A session how he would defeat ISIS, West simply responded, “Kill them,” to

Milwaukee may not be considered as prominent a city as New York or Chicago, but the film industry has still taken advantage of the location. From action films to comedies, Milwaukee has made cameos in a wide variety of films. Here are some of the few that have showcased the city’s greatest landmarks.
Downtown locations, scenery utilized in well-known films By Stephanie Harte
stephanie.harte@marquette.edu
Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon (2011):
During filming of the 2011 blockbuster, the Milwaukee Art Museum transformed into the headquarters of billionaire antagonist Dylan (Patrick Dempsey). The art museum’s Quadracci Pavilion and moveable wing-like brise soleil attracted the film’s production staff. According to art museum workers present during the shoot, the cast and crew took over the front of the museum while cars drove past the entrance. Filming only took two days since cameras were set up in the museum ahead of time. The lakefront area near the museum had to be clear of all boats during the shoot, and workers had to take alternative entrances into the building in order to accommodate the film’s production staff. Dempsey, Shia LaBeouf and model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley (Megan Fox’s replacement in the film) were on location for the shoot. The art museum has also hosted “American Idol” auditions, “Shark
Tank” tryouts and even a Victoria’s Secret commercial.
Bridesmaids (2011):
The production crew of “Bridesmaids” paid a short visit to Milwaukee to shoot exteriors for the movie. The opening credits capture the city’s beauty with shots of the lakefront and popular tourist attractions, helping the film’s Milwaukee-native Annie (Kristin Wiig) defend the city from the prissy Helen (Rose Byrne). The Milwaukee Art Museum makes another cameo in this film, as well as the Harley Davidson Museum and Milwaukee Public Market. Annie’s apartment can also be found on Kinnickinnic Ave. Although most of the story takes place in Chicago and Milwaukee, scenes featuring the cast were only filmed in Los Angeles.
PublicEnemies (2009): Since notorious
Chicago criminals in the 1920s and 30s preferred Wisconsin as a getaway location, the “Public Enemies” production team chose Wisconsin for numerous filming spots. From February to June 2008, Universal Pictures took over the Milwaukee County Historical Center on 910 N. Old World 3rd St., which used to be the Second Ward Savings Bank. The film’s crew recreated the bank’s original configuration for a robbery scene starring Johnny

Depp as American gangster John Dillinger. The film also generated publicity for the Historical Society, which received an influx of visitors following the shoot.
Mr. 3000 (2004): Ber-
nie Mac starred as Milwaukee Brewers baseball superstar Stan Ross, “Mr. 3000,” who got the nickname after what he believed to be his 3000th hit. After turning the nickname into a marketing tool post-retirement to increase his wealth, he learns that he only achieved 2,997 hits due to a clerical error. He then returns to the game to make a comeback at age 47, which is ancient in the world of baseball. The film’s crew shot scenes at Miller Park as well as Marquette University High School on 35th St. and Wisconsin Ave. The “Mr. 3000” crew made multiple appearances at Miller Park and shot in between innings of actual Brewers games.
Trouble with the Curve (2012): “Trouble

“Transformers 3” featured the Milwaukee Art Museum as an evil lair.
TheBluesBrothers (1980): Adding a little blast
from the past to the list, portions of this classic movie were also filmed in Milwaukee. During this tale of two brothers, the most memorable aspects of the film take place during the epic car chases. In the movie’s final chase, the Bluesmobile is on the hunt by Illinois Nazis, causing the 1974 Dodge Monaco to end up in downtown Milwaukee on the then-incomplete I-794. The route was constructed to connect the southern suburbs to the downtown area, but did not reach full completion until 1998,
leaving unfinished bridges present during the filming. During the chase, “Joliet” Jake (John Belushi) goes full force to the freeway’s end, stopping at the last possible second to save the car and send it flying backwards. The effort successfully gets rid of the Nazis, and in that moment, downtown Milwaukee’s U.S. Bank building is visible. After the Nazis run their vehicle off the freeway, they are sent flying through the air as the Chicago Skyline abruptly appears. That’s right, the car travels 92 miles in a minute.
with the Curve,” another baseball movie, sought out Milwaukee as a filming location. The movie centers around baseball scout Gus (Clint Eastwood) who takes a road trip with his daughter Mickey (Amy Adams) in search of the next big thing. Scenes with baseball commissioner Bud Selig himself were filmed on the galleria level of the U.S. Bank building downtown. Top: photo via picniccinema.co.uk.

Foster The People brings inconsistent pop-synth Alternative rock band please crowd but strayed from album By Matt Kulling
matthew.kulling@marquette.edu
Mark Foster and company kept young and old alike dancing Saturday night at the Eagles Ballroom at Foster The People’s final tour stop for the summer in support of their recently released album, “Supermodel.” The show started with opening act The Velvet Teen, a band Mark Foster, lead-singer of Foster the People, later called “one of his favorite bands for a very long time.” Unfortunately, the crowd did not seem to feel the same admiration. After a couple of songs into the half-hour set, front man Judah Nagler asked the obligatory “How are y’all feelin’ out there?” which was followed by a cheer with as much enthusiasm as you would expect from high school students at a mandatory assembly about abstinence. When Nagler followed that up by saying “Is anyone out there?” he received about the same
response. The Velvet Teen received no healthy applause until the musicians asked the crowd if they were ready for Foster The People and announced their last song of the night. Nagler’s voice is clear on the band’s three full-length LP’s and six EP’s. However, his live performance was drowned out by the classic punk rock setup of two loud, cutting guitars, a bass player and a drummer. Together, they sounded disorganized, like each member played whatever he felt like while Nagler mumbled his way through set lyrics to the point where fans screamed at him in unison to turn up the microphone. When The Velvet Teen mercifully left the stage, chants of “Foster! Foster! Foster!” began, with every mic check and flashing light sending the crowd into even more of a frenzy. The band could have come out with only a glockenspiel and Foster’s voice, and the fans would have thought it was the greatest thing they ever heard. The band entered to sci-fi-sounding spaceship music and a multilevel stage setup, complete with mountain-like decorations that looked like they were plucked from the set of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and combined with a

Foster The People energetically performed top hits from all of their albums in front of a dreamy, pastel-crystal set.
kaleidoscope. The majority of the light show consisted of a combination of teal and purple, the same color scheme as the “Supermodel” album cover, with intermittent rainbows and solid colors to portray different emotional backdrops. Despite the trip to the Eagles Ballroom being the group’s first in Milwaukee, the crowd had an obvious long-term love affair with its infectious, synth-laced sound. When toward the beginning of the set, Foster exclaimed, “What’s up Milwaukee? Nice to finally meet you” the crowd exploded, reminiscent of that girl you had a crush on in high school finally saying hi in the hallway. If the alternative pop-rock band’s set could be described with one word, it would be inconsistency. The band opted to turn away from its usual synthesizer-heavy setup to use more “traditional instruments,” trading in keyboards for guitars. Although bringing something different from album recordings seemed like a good idea in theory, the guitar sound fell flat at times. For example, one of the new singles, “Coming of Age,” had powerful, infectious vocals from Foster, but the guitar sound did not have the same dream-like floaty-ness it did in its recorded version. The band did not have to do much work in hypnotizing the near-capacity crowd, already
infatuated with the band ever since the 2011 release of Foster’s debut album “Torches” and its mega-hit “Pumped Up Kicks.” After playing songs from “Torches” for the better part of three years, the band was clearly more than willing to rush through those songs to get to play tracks from “Supermodel.” Even during the encore, playing “Pumped Up Kicks” seemed more like a tedious task than a musical piece they enjoyed performing for the crowd, despite it being by far the most popular song for the crowd. One of the most interesting parts of the night, aside from the music, was how eclectic crowd. Look to the left, and you saw an eight-yearold boy with ear plugs mouthing the words to “Miss You.” Look to
your right, and you saw a man in his 70s imitating Foster’s quirky, heel-clicking dance moves. The demographic makeup of the crowd for Foster The People’s dream-like synth-pop was one of the most diverse the Eagles Ballroom is likely to ever see. Foster left the crowd with parting words of wisdom, directed at the “kids” in the front rows, who he said would have “just started school.” “The way things are going, we need you guys to focus on whatever you’re doing, whether you’re going to be a teacher or an engineer or a mathematician or a politician,” Foster said. “Because you guys are the next generation … you guys are going to be stepping into places of influence … just focus on the truth.”

‘Internet Slowdown Day’ speeds up net neutrality
Photo courtesy of battleforthenet.com
Our view: Internet speeds are just the tip of the iceberg in the fight for net neutrality when free speech and access to information are up for discussion. This past Friday, unfamiliar spinningwheel images greeted visitors to major Internet sites like Netflix, Tumblr and Reddit. These images led to a link in which thousands of Internet sites, companies and organizations protested the recent proposals led by the Federal Communications Commission to install Internet “slow lanes” that would allow Internet Service Providers to limit speedy access to Internet data. The movement — dubbed “Internet Slowdown Day” — included efforts by constituents to contact legislators to oppose these FCC proposals, and in total, over 300 thousand calls and two million emails were sent to Congress to oppose the recent proposals. Proponents of “net neutrality” — the idea that the Internet should be free and open — rallied behind the movement as a way to pressure the White House, Congress and the FCC to safeguard the openness of the Internet. The Internet is a medium by which people disseminate information and therefore an extension of free speech. If ISPs, like AT&T and Comcast, can choose to provide “fast lanes” to the highest bidder, they would, in effect, be able to provide unequal access to information, prioritizing the interests of the rich over the poor. Not only does this unjustly favor the rights of those with money, it also enables ISPs to control online content. For students at Marquette, that could equate to higher prices for highspeed Internet off-campus, and more information online could become subject to manipulation. In 2007, the American Civil Liberties Union recounts, ISP AT&T streamed rock band Pearl Jam’s concert in Chicago. When lead singer Eddie Vedder briefly criticized George W. Bush’s
political actions, the ISP censored parts of the song, denying viewers access to the content. Afterward, the ISP blamed the incident on a website contractor and was never held accountable, precisely because no regulations existed to prohibit ISPs from manipulating online content. More safeguards need to be instated to ensure information online is not manipulated to benefit the interests of the few. Economically, allowing only a few telecommunication giants to dictate the costs and speed of the Internet hurts innovation and invention in the long run. Currently, ISPs divide “the country up into regions and cities that one company controls, rather than trying to compete for the nation as a whole,” allowing ISPs to provide broadband at a cost of $50 a month to consumers, even though broadband only costs ISPs $5 to provide, the Wire explains. Allowing current FCC proposals to go through would mean ISPs could charge an even higher premium for broadband, restrict speeds and control and manipulate consumer data over the Internet. This would equate to fewer incentives to innovate in already lacking broadband infrastructure, and smaller companies would struggle even more to challenge the monopolies current ISPs hold. Net neutrality requires an actively engaged populace with the issue at hand. As the “Internet Slowdown Day” movement shows, millions of U.S. citizens are concerned with current FCC proposals, but legislators need to feel continually pressured if the issue is to be taken seriously. Marquette students could see the implications of the current proposals affect what content we are allowed to see and distribute online, how much Marquette would have to pay for internet services and ultimately, how we can communicate online. Protecting net neutrality is protecting free speech, and it is in our best interest.
Sarah Patel We can all recall a time where we felt uncomfortable. Many times these uncomfortable experiences are associated with first encounters. I know that I always feel uncomfortable the first time I meet someone. Being blind, I never know the facial expressions or body language of the other person, and I often cannot effectively gauge how to interact with them right away. I have accepted that these first meetings will always be uncomfortable but also gained the understanding that life goes on and I cannot spend my life not meeting new people. We all can probably recall a time when we felt unsafe, but this may be one experience compared to the many different experiences that make us feel uncomfortable. I can honestly say that I have felt uncomfortable many times, but I have rarely felt truly unsafe. Working in the service learning office, I often hear students say they feel unsafe going to certain service sites in Milwaukee either due to the site itself, or the way in which they have to get to the location, like taking the bus. This is a huge issue for many students simply because they have been told certain things about the types of people who take the bus, or the areas the bus must go through. Some students make assumptions based on experiences they have never even had. These students conceptualize taking the bus or walking to these areas as unsafe, rather than just plain uncomfortable. Everyone is comfortable with the familiar. These are experiences we know and can relate to, while the unfamiliar
can be uncomfortable. However, this does not necessarily mean we are unsafe in these situations. The difference between safety and comfort was a main focus of a reflection session the Service Learning Program hosted last week. It was interesting to hear many students justify feeling unsafe while riding the bus in Milwaukee, to the point of avoiding it altogether, with the reasoning that they had been told to feel unsafe by members of the Marquette community. They were confused and frustrated to be told about the danger of “unsafe” areas and then be required to get there through some form of “unsafe” transportation. Being a service learning coordinator, it is extremely frustrating to hear this, because our goal is to make students push themselves out of their comfort zones, while maintaining their safety. With these mixed messages from different members of the Marquette community imparted on students, it makes me think Marquette should be more united in addressing this situation. As a Jesuit university, Marquette should send a clear message that the use of public transportation and going out into the city to attend service sites is a positive and enriching aspect of the Marquette experience. While this may be an uncomfortable experience at first, it should not be mistaken for an unsafe experience. Students should not be afraid to venture out of their comfort zones, and they should not be discouraged by anyone to try the unfamiliar. In my experience, the most rewarding opportunities were those that were challenging and uncomfortable, only to become familiar and comfortable in time.

Technological innovations can quickly lead to pitfalls
Elena Fransen If you think about it, we college students grew up with cell phones. We were there for the release of the Razr and enthralled by the Sidekick, new innovations from the early Nokia phones with giant antennas and candy bar keyboards. My first cell phone was nothing too fancy, and I only used it to make a call when I was out of the house. But more often than not, I just used it to play Snake. Fast track past the LG Chocolate and Rogue to now, I can use my cell phone to access the Internet, listen to my music and make calls every now and then. Demands for technology have changed, with most people using their phones as a mobile computer. Phones are highly efficient these days and, with the announcement of the iPhone 6 Plus and new features such as Apple Pay, additional innovations are on the way. While it is great that we still have room to advance the capabilities of handheld devices, something to be wary of as we move forward with this new technology is the distinct possibility that these advances show us drawing on old innovations to keep us moving into unknown territory. For years, the industry’s goal was to make cell phones smaller and more portable while maintaining top of the line features. Of course, the demand has now changed, with costumers buying larger screens and higher performing processors to complete tasks efficiently, and in

Apple released its new line of Apple features and products, including Apple Pay, iPhone 6 Plus and the wearable Apple Watch.
a big way. The engineering of the iPhone 6 Plus demonstrates how size is going back on design improvements to accommodate new technology. One could say that size does not matter, but it is confusing when we strive for compact, mobile devices and then create a product bigger than the average person’s hand. At greater debate with the new advances is iOS 8’s newest feature, Apple Pay, advertised as the software to keep you from carrying a wallet around by storing your credit information on a mobile device. In theory, needing just your phone to make purchases sounds like an ideal advancement, but it is not without its risks. Cell phones have their glitches, and with
the recent leak of Jennifer Lawrence’s photos, it is nerve-wracking to entrust sensitive information with such great bearing on our well-being to a phone. Phone theft, hacking and system failures are just a few of the ways credit information could get into the wrong hands should things not be perfect. Innovations in technology keep moving us forward, yet there are conditions limiting how particular innovations can be used day to day. Apple may promise that the new products and features can only be beneficial to our daily lives, but there are major risks involved that people need to understand before jumping at the opportunity to stop carrying credit cards around. With new
innovations come new problems that we need to address. The days of using a cell phone simply to make calls and play Brick or Snake are gone, and while we can be proud that devices are more advanced, let us not get too far ahead of ourselves. As cell phone technology continues to explore new territories within the confines of possibility, we as consumers need to stay privy to how advances affect us and recognize the difference between a good setup and a bad one.

Men’s soccer hopes to win cup for 1st time since buzzer-beater By Jack Goods
jack.goods@marquette.edu
It is one of the top rivalries in college soccer. The series dates back to the 70s, but may be more intense than ever in recent years. Wednesday night, Marquette and Wisconsin-Milwaukee fight for the Milwaukee Cup for the 42nd time. For Marquette head coach Louis Bennett, the Milwaukee Cup is more than just another rivalry, it is a reminder of the past.
Bennett coached at UWM from 1996 until 2005, when he was hired by Marquette. In his 10 years with the Panthers, Bennett was named the Horizon League Coach of the Year five times and led UWM to five straight NCAA tournament berths. He holds the record as the winningest coach in UWM history. “Personally, I’m pretty much removed from the UWM days,” Bennett said. “It’s a piece of my history that I hold dear to me, but I’m very much a Golden Eagle.” “I think this game has become very important for the community,” Bennett continued. “You don’t want to over-inflate a game, but you have to give a game
respect … Right now it’s more important that it’s our next game.” The Milwaukee Cup is awarded annually to the winner of the Marquette vs. UWM match. The Panthers currently hold a 28-10 lead in the all-time series. Since Bennett moved to the Marquette side, the Golden Eagles have gone 2-4-1 in the rivalry. Marquette’s last victory against UWM came in 2012, with a buzzer-beater by then-sophomore Sebastian Jansson. After losing its first two matches of the season, Marquette has shut the door. In their last three matches, the Golden Eagles have given up zero goals en route to victories over Gonzaga, Oregon State and most recently, Drake.
The team has moved up to 13th in the Top Drawer Soccer rankings, but are still attempting to claw its way into the coaches’ top 25. The Panthers are led in scoring by freshmen Reid Stevenson, Petter Ingebrigtsen and Nick Moon, who have scored all six of UWM’s goals so far. They have faced hefty competition as of late, as the Panthers are coming off two losses at the Capital Cup to No. 22 George Mason and No. 19 American. This weekend offers them another shot at a top-ranked program. UWM is not a team to be overlooked by Marquette. Despite the Golden Eagles’ stellar finish to their 2013 season, this year’s
campaign started off rather bumpy. Last year, Marquette dropped its season opener at UWM 2-1, in a match in which the Panthers created far more scoring chances than Marquette. “We don’t try to think about the loss from last year,” redshirt junior Axel Sjoberg said. “The games against UWM are always really tough.” Sjoberg was named Big East Defensive Player of the Week yesterday. Redshirt junior David Selvaggi, who scored both goals in the Drake match, was named to the Big East Honor Roll. The Milwaukee Cup kicks off tomorrow night at 7:05 p.m. under the lights at Valley Fields.
Women’s soccer drops two in weekend matches Losses to UWM, Texas A&M continues tough stretch for MU By Jacob Born
jacob.born@marquette.edu
The Marquette women’s soccer team continues to slide, as the team added two more in the loss column after falling to Wisconsin-Milwaukee 5-4 and No. 12 Texas A&M 3-0. The Golden Eagles were outmatched early by the Panthers, as Wisconsin-Milwaukee jumped out to a 2-0 lead within the first 15
minutes of the Milwaukee Cup, and added another goal in the 30th minute to take a sizable 3-0 lead into halftime. Despite allowing another goal in the 62nd minute, Marquette showed some great resilience. Marquette started to chip away at the lead when senior midfielder Mary Luba scored in the 69th minute. Freshman midfielder Caroline Fink added a goal in the 73rd minute, sophomore midfielder Liz Bartels in the 78th, and in the 85th minute, freshman midfielder Heather Handwork scored to tie the game at 4. Unfortunately for the blue and gold faithful, the Panthers scored again with just 90 seconds left to win the Milwaukee Cup 5-4. After the heartbreaking loss, the
Golden Eagles were forced to have short memories, as the team flew to College Station, Texas, to take on the Aggies. Texas A&M was the better team on the field, but the Golden Eagles were able to hang around with the Aggies. Despite being outshot 13-3 in the first half, Marquette was able to enter the half tied at 0. Goalkeeper Amanda Engel made six saves in the first half, while the Golden Eagles only mustered one shot on goal. During the second half, however, the Aggies turned it on and showed why they were ranked 12th in the nation. Just seven minutes into the second half, Texas A&M got on the
board when midfielder Allie Bailey shot the ball past Engel. The Aggies added a second in the 63rd minute when defender Leigh Edwards launched a shot from 25 yards out that found its way to the back of the net. Texas A&M continued to press late in the second half, and Marquette committed a foul in the box to give midfielder Shea Groom a penalty kick. Groom converted the penalty kick for the Aggies, which gave them a 3-0 lead. Golden Eagle and junior midfielder Jacie Jermier nearly put Marquette on the board when she put another solid free kick on net, but the Aggies were able to stop the shot and complete the shutout.
“This is a challenging place to play and for us to fight as hard as we did, miss a couple of chances and then get punished by a couple nice plays and finishes, we can’t hang our heads too low,” coach Markus Roeders told GoMarquette.com. Marquette heads back to the friendly confines of Valley Fields when it hosts Kansas in the first of four straight home matches, spanning two weekends. Kickoff against the Jayhawks is at 7 p.m. “Coming home and playing at Valley Fields over the next two weekends is something to be excited about,” Roeders said to GoMarquette.com. “We learned and got better (Sunday) and can’t fault our team one bit.”

MKE would be great destination for professional outdoor soccer
Jacob Born With four major sports represented in Milwaukee, the city is a great place for sports fans. The Brewers were in first place for 150 days before their recent losing streak, but are still in the hunt for a playoff berth. Three years ago, the Brewers won the Central Division and made its first NLCS. This past summer, the Bucks selected Jabari Parker with the second pick in the 2014 NBA draft, which has created a new wave of Bucks enthusiasm.
The Packers have always had a solid following in Milwaukee, especially after its 2010 Super Bowl season. The Admirals, the minor league affiliate for the NHL’s Nashville Predators, have a small but loyal fan base, finishing near the top-10 in attendance year in and year out. The one sport that is not represented in Milwaukee professional sports in soccer, but a small group of fans hopes to change that soon. The Milwaukee Outdoor Pro Soccer Alliance, a group campaigning for professional outdoor soccer in Milwaukee, is holding a rally Sept. 17 to bring soccer to the Brew City. The group will hold a Q&A at the Twisted Fisherman Crab Shack, and then march to the Valley Fields, where Marquette and Wisconsin-Milwaukee will battle for the Milwaukee Cup.
The group has a very good point, because even though the town probably does not know it, Milwaukee is a soccer town. Marquette soccer is a perfect example of this. Over the past five years of men’s soccer, the team has gone from being at the bottom of the Big East to a national contender. The women’s team has not had a losing season in 18 years. Both have great turnouts from locals. As for Marquette students, the Birdcage regularly is filled. Against major rivals, such as Wisconsin-Milwaukee or Georgetown, Valley Fields is filled to capacity. But its not just limited to Marquette’s campus. Marquette was ready to welcome Andrija Novakovich to the men’s team, but then he decided to sign with Reading FC of England’s Football League
Championship. Sept. 5, Marquette High School took on Chaminade College Prep, a high school in St. Louis, and fell 2-0 to the No. 12 team in the nation. WisconsinMilwaukee has Laurie Bell, who is ranked No. 8 in Top Drawer Soccer’s Top-100 players in the country. But perhaps most importantly is when Chivas Guadalajara and Swanson City played an international friendly at Miller Park. The game was sold out, with the majority of fans cheering for Chivas Guadalajara. Such a strong showing for a 1-1 tie for two teams on different continents shows Milwaukee could definitely support a Major League Soccer or North American Soccer League team. Having a professional soccer team in Milwaukee would continue to bring national attention to
Milwaukee soccer, as well as bring in extra revenue for the city. Although the city is already reluctant to build a new arena for the Bucks, a soccer stadium could be something the city and the community could rally around. While not directly imitating Chicago, building a stadium right next to the lake could be a great spot for an arena. Imagine Marquette and Wisconsin-Milwaukee battling for the Milwaukee Cup on a neutral site, in front of 5,000 fans, right next to the lake. It would be a major event for the city. Milwaukee is a soccer town, whether or not it knows it. It’s time for the MLS or the NASL to know as well. Jacob Born is from Saint Louis, MO studying journalism with a minor in marketing.

Men’s, women’s tennis teams get quality play in MKE Classic Teofanovic/Dykema, Pimienta/Gebes earn runner-up finishes By Hayley Keith
Special to the Tribune
The Marquette men’s and women’s tennis teams competed in the 39th Milwaukee Tennis Classic this past weekend. The tournament played host to men’s tennis teams from Marquette, Air Force, Ball State and Wisconsin-Madison. The women’s bracket featured Marquette, Western Michigan, South Carolina and Wisconsin-Madison. The men started the tournament Friday with a doubles matchup
against Wisconsin. Marquette was unable to pull off the doubles win, falling 2-1, but were able to redeem themselves by moving past Ball State 5-2 in singles play. The Marquette doubles team of senior Vukasin Teofanovic and sophomore Nick Dykema was the only team from Marquette to register a win at doubles for the day. Saturday, the men delivered a full sweep of Air Force in singles action and defeated Ball State 3-1 in doubles. Teofanovic and Dykema won 8-6 to keep their undefeated streak alive. Sunday, the men rounded out the tournament by beating Air Force at doubles and falling short to Wisconsin in the singles match. Teofanovic and Dykema solidi-
fied their spot of doubles champions by gliding past Air Force with an 8-4 win. Also awarded a title was Marquette’s No. 1 in singles, sophomore Daniel Fernandez. Fernandez beat Ball State’s first singles player, Lucas Anderson, in a three set match Friday. Saturday, Fernandez moved easily past Air Force opponent Lucas Fumagalli. However, Fernandez was unable to go undefeated for the tournament, losing to Wisconsin’s first singles player. Fernandez’s performance throughout the tournament earned him the men’s singles runner-up title. The women’s team also had a successful tournament. The women kicked off the tournament Friday with a doubles matchup
against Wisconsin. First doubles partners junior Erin Gebes and senior Ana Pimienta won in a close 8-7 match while senior Ali Dawson and junior Aleeza Kanner topped the Badgers in a decisive 8-4 win. However, the women were unable to pull out the singles team win against Western Michigan, losing 3-4. Saturday’s singles play against South Carolina ended in a 0-6 loss for the Golden Eagles. Pimienta lost to the singles champion Caroline Dailey, and Gebes fell to the runner-up singles champion Meghan Blevins. Despite the singles losses, the day was not a bust for the Golden Eagles, as they won the doubles match 2-1 against Western Michigan.
The women finished the tournament Sunday with a tie and a loss. South Carolina again proved to be too strong of an opponent beating Marquette 2-1 in the final doubles match. Marquette tied Wisconsin 3-3 in singles play. Pimienta and Gebes earned the women’s doubles runner-up title, and Pimienta was also awarded the Chas Mulcahy Sportsmanship Award. The men will travel to West Lafayette, Ind., to participate in the Purdue Fall Invite this upcoming weekend. The women will have some time off until Sept. 26, when they will travel to Colorado Springs, Colo., for USAFA Invitational.

Club hockey dominates Hawkeyes in 1st series MU notches +14 scoring differential over 2-game span By Sterling Silver
sterling.silver@marquette.edu
The Marquette men’s club hockey team got off to a flying start, winning 7-0 and 11-4 in its weekend series on the road against Iowa. In coach Will Jurgensen’s debut, the Golden Eagles thrashed an Iowa defense that had no answer to any of Marquette’s lines. Friday night, the team got a goal from all four forward lines. Senior Tyler Schwichtenberg came off last year’s 30-point season with two goals while
five other players also scored. Jurgensen was pleased to see numerous players contribute to the rout. “What was great to see was that we had 11 different guys show up on the score sheet Friday night, which again goes to show that all four lines and defensive pairings were playing great together,” Jurgensen said. Saturday afternoon’s contest started where Friday left off, as Schwichtenberg scored his third goal of the weekend. During the entire trip, the Golden Eagles had 10 players score goals, with three players scoring at least two: Schwichtenberg and sophomores Will Podewils and Matt Poli. The impressive weekend showing was also a positive opportunity for Jurgensen to
get acclimated to his new role with the team. Jurgensen made his first appearance as coach, replacing Joe Cocking, who left after three seasons. The former club hockey captain and 2013 graduate could not have asked for a better start in his first season at the helm. “I learned mostly how determined and focused our team is to accomplish our goals and continue to put Marquette hockey on the map on a national scale,” Jurgensen said. “I believe we have a lot of success in our future but that won’t come without continuous hard work each time we step on the ice.” One problem Jurgenson had to deal with was the goaltender situation. Jurgensen planned to get experience for all three of his goalkeepers: freshman
Robbie Arner, sophomore Alejandro Anderson and junior Thomas Place. Arner started Friday’s game and played the first 30 minutes, not giving up a single goal, while Anderson finished the game, completing the shutout. Saturday, Place made his first appearance in goal and, following Friday’s situation, played the first 30 minutes, giving up one goal. Anderson made a return and finished the game, giving up three goals. “All three guys showed promise this weekend and I still don’t have a defined one, two and three goalie to this point,” Jurgensen said. “They are all going to have to keep battling it out during practice, which only makes them better and the team better when all three guys
are playing hard and making my decision difficult.” Following the weekend sweep, the Golden Eagles will take on the Bradley Braves in their first home series of the season this weekend. Jurgensen views the opening game as a chance to show what his team is made of. “I am incredibly excited to play our first game in front of the Marquette student body and encourage everyone in the Marquette community to come out and support their hockey team,” Jurgensen said. “I can promise that these guys will play very hard each night and make Marquette proud much like they have already made me proud as their coach in only a couple short weeks.”
Volleyball takes 3 of 4 in Marquette Invitational Comeback win versus UTSA highlights big tournament wins By Patrick Leary
patrick.leary@marquette.edu
Down 20-15 in the fourth set with momentum on the other side of the net, the Marquette women’s volleyball team dug deep and pulled off an impressive four-set victory over Texas-San Antonio to cap off a 3-1 weekend at the Marquette Invitational. “That was an exciting game,” sophomore outside hitter Nele Barber said. “The first was 2512, that was very nice, and then they fought back … it got tight. At the end we actually did our game plan so we could win the game.” Marquette jumped out to an
early 9-1 lead against UTSA and kept the momentum going to win the first set 25-12. Trailing 22-19 in the second set, the Golden Eagles ripped off six straight points to claim the second set 25-22. After giving the Roadrunners the third set 25-18, Marquette stormed back late in the fourth for a 26-24 match-clinching win. “We hadn’t had many comebacks to tie or take leads yet this year,” coach Ryan Theis said. “I think that was based on our serving.” Sophomore outside hitter Autumn Bailey, redshirt sophomore setter Mary Nilles and Barber all had important serves in both comebacks in the close sets. Bailey led Marquette with 16 kills and 11 digs, while Barber chipped in 15 on her way to the all-tournament team. “If we can get kills in multiple positions … I think that makes us very dangerous,” Theis said.
“I look forward to using multiple weapons in the future.” Those multiple weapons were on display in Saturday morning’s four-set win over Green Bay (2628, 25-14, 25-17, 25-22), when Barber and senior right side hitter Lindsey Gosh had 15 kills each to lead Marquette. Barber’s success balanced Bailey, who had 13 kills but hit under .200. “Both of us play together,” Barber said of Bailey. “If one has a bad day, the other one tries to balance it out. If we both have a good day, that’s even better.” Rice proved to be a difficult opponent for the Golden Eagles Friday night. Marquette never found much momentum and fell in four sets (25-19, 25-19, 20-25, 25-15). Bailey had seven kills in the victorious third set, but struggled for the rest of the game. “They had a very good game,” Barber said. “They had a lot of

touches and a lot of good digs that we didn’t really expect, and we could not kill the ball. We made a lot of mistakes.” Some of those mistakes came from the service line, as Marquette could not build momentum and get point runs due to errors. “We had 34 misses and our opponents had 17 (for the weekend),” Theis said. “You don’t want to be playing from behind. When you get aced and you miss serves, and that happens five, six times, all of a sudden the other team only has to play to 18 or 19 when you’re trying to play to 25.” Theis added that serving can give his team a huge advantage. “At the same time, we have to be aggressive,” he said. “It’s the only way to get point runs. So you’ve got to find that fine line and tell certain players to go for it more than others.”
One of those players is Barber, whose serving helped the Golden Eagles all weekend, including a 2512, 25-9, 25-17 rout of James Madison Friday morning. Barber says the transition back to serving after not doing it at all last year is one she is enjoying. “I missed it,” she said. “I was a six-rotation player in Germany and I knew I missed it a lot. And now, to play a lot of back row is awesome.” An exhausted Marquette team will be able to take a few days off to lick their wounds and get ready to hit the ground running again this week in practice. Theis says overall, the tournament went according to his expectations. “We’ll take it, but we want to win every match,” he said. “Were we expecting to go 4-0? No. We’re expecting to have chances to win every match we play.”
