he Duke has landed. Freshman running back Randy “Duke” Johnson racked up 246 all-purpose yards and accounted for four touchdowns as the Miami Hurricanes defeated the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats 38-10 on Saturday. The four touchdowns were the most for any Hurricane in a single game since Tyrone Moss also found the endzone four times in 2005.

“He has a standard of excellence and an approach that is something for a lot of guys to emulate,” coach Al Golden said. “A lot of freshman make mental errors but Duke really doesn’t. He finishes plays hard. You guys can see it on the sideline, even when he’s getting close to the end of the run, there’s no stepping out of bounds. He’s trying to finish and making a statement when he does that.” SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 10

TOPPEL CAREER CENTER

Internships prove beneficial for professional future Students gain real world experience

Statistics provide a closer look Toppel Career Center’s numbers reveal the importance of internships for University of Miami students and graduates.

Internships by the numbers

Twenty-one-year-old senior Ana Calderone spent this summer writing stories about the latest fashion trends, assisting with the production of web content, and meeting with leading journalists – all for her internship with The New York Times Fashion & Style section. Calderone, originally from Long Island, N.Y., spent the past three summers working at internships related to fashion journalism, the career path she hopes to pursue after graduation. Before her summer at The New York Times, Calderone worked for Condé Nast’s Women’s Wear Daily as a styling intern. Because of her interning experience, Calderone said she believes in the value of internships. She said her time this summer helped shape her professional life. “I learned so much at my internship and it really solidified my career goals,” Calderone said. “I worked with great people, got a bunch of bylines and learned from some of the industry's best. Everyone should seek internships, there's so much more to learn outside the classroom.” Internships on the rise Calderone is one of many students at the University of Miami who complete internships during their time in college. According to surveys conducted by the Toppel Career Center at UM, 50 percent of graduating seniors from the May class of 2012 has completed an internship by the time of graduation. “Employers are saying they would like to see two to three internships on students’ resumes at the time of graduation, to make yourself competitive for the real world,” said

Opening doors Bigham stated that students who have internship experience on their resumes are also more likely to make more money at their first job. “National data has suggested that the difference between someone who never had an internship and someone who did have an internship is around $6,000 toward your starting salary,” he said. For instance, someone with no internship experience would make $35,000, where as someone with internship experience would make $41,000. “That’s pretty powerful in terms of looking at a reason to complete an internship and being more competitive,” Bigham said. Internships are important for a variety of reasons, one being the experience that students gain, said Bigham. “It’s important throughout your college career to put yourself out there in terms of an internship, because of the different things that you’ll learn throughout that intern-

Going abroad While many students complete internships to help them land their dream jobs, senior Andrew Szarejko spent his summer gaining relevant experiences in a different way. Szarejko participated in the Critical Language Scholarship Program this summer. He spent two months in Izmir, Turkey, studying Turkish for four hours a day, five days a week. He completed homework assignments in Turkish, and lived with a Turkish family. Szarejko believes his time spent with the program will be beneficial for him in the future – he hopes to secure a job in government work. “Foreign language proficiency is always good for just about any job,” Szarejko said. “I really want to go into government work so studying Turkish for two months in an intensive setting was certainly helpful.” Szarejko also valued the topnotch nature of the program. “It was also great because you go there, and it’s a competitive pro-

gram,” Szarejko said. “You’re with elite students in elite universities, and it’s great getting to know those people.” Though Szarejko did not apply to his critical language program through the Toppel Career Center, many other opportunities for internships, full and part-time jobs are available through the center’s databases, including hireacane.com and ucanintern.com. Hireacane.com is where employers post job opportunities strictly for Canes, and ucanintern.com is the University Career Action Network, where universities post internships for students from other schools. CJ Magwood will lead a developmental workshop on Monday, about what to do to best prepare for an internship or a full-time position. Magwood secured a summer internship with Goldman Sachs as a summer analyst in 2008. He graduated in 2009 and currently works for the Campbell Soup Company. Erika Glass contributed to this report.

Lottery for Romney, Obama events causes controversy Limited tickets leave students perplexed BY ALLISON GOODMAN| EDITOR--IN-CHIEF STEPHANIE PARRA | NEWS EDITOR

Kiteboarders fly high Thrill-seeking students find adventure in club BY CARLY SMITH CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Imagine pulling off the stunts you mastered on a wakeboard 33 feet in the air without the assistance of a boat or a ramp, relying solely on wind conditions and your ability to steer a kite. For thrill-seekers looking for an adrenaline rush or want to try something new, UM's two-year old kiteboarding club is open to all students. Kiteboarding is a combination of surfing, wakeboarding and windsurfing. “The possibilities are endless. You can do huge, 50-foot jumps, ride waves with a surfboard and hit rails,” senior Thomas Fields, the club’s vice president The sport may appear intimidating and dangerous to some people, but Fields thinks differently. “Kiteboarding actually is a very safe sport as long as you take lessons from a qualified instructor who will take the time to teach you all of the important safety tips,” he said. Avid kiteboarders Ivan Zorn, Nico Cuetara, Ian McKeown and Thomas Fields were practicing at Crandon Park during the fall of 2010 when they came up with the idea to start a kiteboarding club on campus. The club became recognized by COSO in the spring of 2010. “Kiteboarding can be a relatively expensive sport to learn with lessons in Miami costing upwards of $100-$150 per hour,” Fields

said.“We wanted to give students access to one of the world’s most exciting and fastestgrowing sports.” To join, students pay an annual $40 due and attend a mandatory beach day or kite night where they receive a free introductory lesson from the club. After, Students can begin their training at Kite Shop Miami, which offers lessons for $20 an hour to club members. The Kite Shop also provides all of the necessary equipment for lessons. However, members are encouraged to purchase their own equipment once they have completed their lessons. Beginners tend to buy used gear from around $600 to $900. A common misconception about the sport is the need for muscles and strength to guide the kite, said Zorn, senior and president of the club. “You definitely should know how to swim, but being strong is not that important,” he said. “You are connected to the kite with a harness that will hold your body weight when riding. All you need to do is steer the board with your legs and the kite with your arms.” FINISH READING AT THEMIAMIHURRICANE.COM

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s and President Barack Obama’s visits to campus on Wednesday and Thursday have raised concerns about the ticketing distribution process. On Friday, the Division of Student Affairs sent an email to students who entered the lottery for Gov. Romney’s event on Wednesday, informing them that there would no longer be a lottery to distribute tickets to the event. The event, as per the Romney campaign’s request, was only open to members of the UM College Republicans and presidents of certain organizations, such as the Federacion de Estudiantes Cubanos (the Federation of Cuban Students, known as FEC) and SpectrUM, the LGBT student organization on campus. FEC, for instance, will receive nine tickets for its entire executive board. Though the local Romney office and the Florida communications director for the campaign were given the opportunity to comment on the campaign’s decision, they did not respond to phone calls and emails. Of the 750 total tickets, UM was originally given roughly 400, with 99 percent of those tickets going to students, according to Rudy Fernandez, vice president for government affairs. Student Affairs has been responsible for distributing the tickets according to the rules imposed by each campaign and by Univision, who rented the BankUnited Center Fieldhouse where the events will be held. The small venue was selected based on considerations about the taping of the show. According to a statement prepared by the University of Miami, “These broadcast events are a partnership between the political campaigns, Univision, Facebook, and the University of Miami. Because of rules imposed by the campaigns, the University had to give preference to politically affiliated student organizations and student leaders.” Political science professor Joseph Uscinski, the advisor for UM College Republicans, however, believes the decision to limit the tickets to Gov. Romney’s event did not stem directly from the campaign. According to Uscinski, senior Alexander Alduncin, the president of the UM College Republicans, spoke to the Romney campaign Friday morning and was told that the decision to limit the tickets was made by Univision. Sept. 17 - Sept. 19, 2012

“The Romney campaign did not specify that it would only be college Republicans,” Uscinski said. “It would be Univision’s decision – it’s not particularly clear that it was Romney’s.” Although restrictions were placed on the Romney event, the lottery was still in effect for the event with President Obama on Thursday. Still, certain organizations were guaranteed tickets to the event, just as they were for the Romney event. “There are only so many seats and the tickets need to be distributed somehow,” Uscinski said. “Most people will be unhappy, because most tickets won’t be available.” Still, some Republican students who did not receive tickets to see presidential candidate Romney are upset with the way the tickets were distributed. Junior Hailey Bush, a registered Republican, did not receive a ticket to the event. Although she was a member of the UM College Republicans last year, she has not been able to attend the organization’s events this year. “I’m so upset!” Bush said. “My family is a huge supporter of the Republican party and they were so excited for me to go, especially since I was a part of UM College Republicans last year.” Any limitations to ticket distribution would not infringe upon students’ freedom of speech, according to professor Samuel Terilli. “They can do it, it’s a private venue,” said Terilli, who has practiced media, employment and commercial law for 28 years. “Candidates can dictate and have whomever they want. It’s not a violation of the First Amendment.” Terilli also said he believes the decision directly reflects modern-day politics. “I think it’s unfortunate when any presidential candidate feels that he or she can only stand in front of a hand-picked, guaranteedto-be-friendly audience,” he said. “I think it devalues the political process. It makes it more of a staged theater than anything that’s truly authentic.” The presidential candidates’ visits are part of Univision broadcasts, and will be aired on the Spanish-language station after each event. Univision, a TV station with studios and operations in Doral, will conduct the event in a question and answer format, with questions asked in Spanish and candidates answering in English. Translations will be provided when necessary. “I know the university is doing its best to make sure that as many students that can attend will,” Student Government President Nawara Alawa said. “It’s a shame that many students who were willing to hear candidates out might not be able to attend the events.” THE MIAMI HURRICANE

STUDENT ORGANIZATION

Homesick students find comfort in culture club Eastern European students unite to celebrate their roots BY KRISTEN CALZADILLA CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Junior Iskander Karimov, who traveled 6000 miles from his home in Russia, felt homesick and could not find any students who shared his background. “When I first came to UM, I realized I couldn’t find any students from my country and the transition was pretty hard,” he said. “Overall, I was pretty homesick, and I couldn’t find anyone around from Russia or Eastern Europe who could speak the same language." His homesickness led him to start UM’s first organization for Russian and Eastern European students. The Russian and Eastern European Club meets to organize social events such as going to Russian restaurants and outdoor activities. “We usually go out on the weekends to Russian restaurants and do random social events such as pool parties, house parties, sailing, rafting, biking and attending sports events such as hockey games or football games as a group,” senior Nikolay Grishakov said. A fellow club member, Grishakov also believes that part of the club’s purpose is to assist newly arrived in4

ternational students adjust to the university and life in Miami. “It’s a beneficial group for the Eastern Europeans who are new in the university, and our club is a great place to meet new people,” Grishakov said. “We wanted to show our members all helpful resources on campus, and for the new students we can give advice on which places to go in Miami, and which areas to stay away from.” The club not only brings Russian and Eastern European students together but also promotes the interesting, Russian culture on campus. “We also try to introduce our culture to everybody in UM,” Karimov said. “Russian food is really good and really diverse. There are so many different kinds of minorities in Russia and all of them are completely different.” Karimov did not expect there to be so many interested students. During his sophomore year, Karimov met other Russian students, and the idea became a reality. “During my second year, I met a few guys who were actually from Russia,” he said. “I had this idea in my head the whole time just to have a club that would bring together Russian-speaking people and people from Eastern Europe because we kind of have the same culture.”

Sept. 17 - Sept. 19, 2012

International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) helped Karimov find more Russian and Eastern European students. The ISSS provides resources for international students and scholars and conducts programs throughout the year. Karimov then generated a Facebook page that received positive responses. “We made a Facebook page,” he said. “In a few days, we already had 40 students sign up for our club, so that was a success.” Karimov also hopes that the club breaks Russian stereotypes that he heard during his first year on campus. “One of the goals to create the club was to erase stereotypes about Russia,” he said. “My first year, I remember hearing all kinds of jokes about Russia. It’s not the Soviet Union anymore. When you watch American movies, they show Russia as the Soviet Union.” Nevertheless, Karimov is proud of how close the members of the club have become and hearing how some reunite in hometowns. “I meet new people from my hometown so it’s fun to meet up with them during winter break and summer breaks,” Grishakov said. “I met new friends from around the Eastern European countries, so I get to visit them some around Europe.”

MILLER SCHOOL OF MEDICINE

Zombies set to attack Gables campus Monday UM hosts emergency response simulation BY SAM ABBASSI CONTRIBUTING NEWS WRITER

Zombie attacks have now become a campus concern. On Monday, UM will be testing its ability to respond to a zombie outbreak. The university medical staff and students will combat the virus by distributing medical doses to stop the spread, in this case using Sour Patch Kids and Swedish Fish candies. This role-play initiative will mimic the “Point of Dispensing” (POD) plan, testing the efficiency of managing and dispensing 100,000 doses of medical countermeasures that are received through the Miami-Dade County Health Department. “The purpose of this exercise is to test our efficiency to respond in the event of some public health emergency and to dispense the proper medical doses to the UM community and their families in South Florida,” said John Pepper, the Emergency Manager at the Miller School of Medicine campus.

In the event of a public health emergency, Miami-Dade County is responsible for the setup of POD’s and medical stations around South Florida that would administer the countermeasures appropriate, given the situation. UM has teamed up with Miami-Dade County to become a “Closed POD” site. This means the distribution of medications and supplies is targeted to a specific group of people - in this case, the UM community. For the zombie exercise on Monday, UM’s Office of Emergency Management will work together with the Miami-Dade County Medical Reserve Corps University of Miami Response Team, which is predominantly made up of medical students from UM’s Miller School of Medicine. “It’s definitely good practice and it gets them more involved,” Pepper said. “We want our medical students getting some new and different experiences.” In an effort to engage the general student population in the POD exercise, UM chose to administer the PODs in the theme of a hypothetical zombie attack. “Emergency preparedness isn’t sexy so we needed something to grab their attention,” said Scott Burnotes, director of Emergency Manage-

ment. “That’s the objective with the zombies.” The idea came from the CDC’s Zombie Preparedness Attack campaign last year. It was very successful, so UM decided to piggyback off of that, said Pepper. “I think it’s a good idea but some people won’t take it seriously,” said junior Charles Cavalaris, who is on the pre-med track. “It could be taken lightly. Because it’s called a zombie outbreak, it sounds more like a game.” To some degree it is a game, said Burnotes. Monday’s POD exercise is a part of an entire “Zombie U” preparedness month. In this month, the Office of Emergency Management has teamed up with Greek Life in an effort to involve more students. “We needed a concentrated group that could meet the expectations for the first go around,” Burnotes said. The month of “Zombie U” will be comprised of events and activities that will range from putting out a fire to basic preparedness for any emergency. Points will be administered as well as prizes. The POD exercise on Monday is, however, open to everyone. “The point is trying to build more prepared people for any type of emergency that might happen in their lives,” Burnotes said.

University of Rhode Island’s successful zombie exercises inspired Burnotes to bring them to UM. In the event of a future public health emergency, the proper medical doses would be distributed from the Strategic National Stockpile (SNS) directly to local POD sites, like the Miami-Dade County Health Department, which dispenses the doses to the closed PODs, including UM. “The point is to have access to as many people as we can and Closed POD’s do that in a very specific way,” said Natasha Strokin, the City Readiness Initiative (CRI) coordinator for Miami-Dade County’s Health Department. The CRI is a federally funded effort through the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which prepares major U.S. cities in response to a “large-scale bioterrorist event,” as stated on the CRI website. The SNS was created to work on a federal level in the event of a chemical or biological threat. Emergency medical stockpiles are kept at undisclosed locations throughout the United States. Stockpiles, including vaccines, antitoxins, airway equipment and IV fluids are available within 12 hours of being requested.

other organizations? Just because students don’t have an active civic role on campus does not mean they’re not interested in politics. Because such a limited amount of tickets were available for these events, priority access should not have been granted. The organizations, which were guaranteed tickets, did not organize the candidates’ events. All students should have had the same opportunity to obtain a ticket. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but the chances to receive a ticket to the event should not be one in a million. It isn’t right that some students will be able to graduate UM with the memory of seeing Obama and Romney, while others only wished they had that memory. Though the concept of a contest essentially means that

some individuals aren’t going to win, all students should have been told whom the organizations affiliated with the political parties were. And students who were not granted a ticket should have been notified via email. Space in the Fieldhouse may be limited, but the BankUnited Center holds up to 8,000 people. Therefore, it would be possible to stream the events live in the BUC and allow students to enter on a first come, first serve basis. If not, maybe no students should be allowed to attend. We all have one thing in common: We can vote, and our votes can make a difference. Give us all the opportunity to participate.

ROSA MEXICANO LOUNGE Located on Miracle Mile, the lounge is a trendy mix of Miami and Asian style. This is the perfect place to stop for lunch, especially when a quick visit to the food court or the vending machine down the hall isn’t going to cut it. Start off with the gyoza; these steamed or fried pork dumplings will make you forget about any work or class-related worries. Their chicken pad thai, which is drizzled with a tamarind sauce, makes a killer entree and exemplifies the restaurant’s LatinAsian fusion.

Either way, you’ll end up licking your plate clean. And there’s no way you can leave Graziano’s without trying the flan. No, really ... it’s amazing.

If you think of Taco Bell eight out of the ten times you hear “Mexican food,” you’re really missing out. Make sure to stop by Rosa Mexicano right away.

PROFILE

Indian pop singer reaches for stardom through social media BY NICKY DIAZ EDGE EDITOR

Learning how to take advantage of social media and everything the internet has to offer is crucial for aspiring musicians in today’s industry. Singers like Justin Bieber and Karmin, who were both discovered on YouTube, would probably agree. And it seems like Asha Sing, a senior at the University of Miami’s Frost School of Music, is following in their footsteps. The singer-songwriter has already written music for Latin Grammy Award-winning artist Daddy Yankee and performed as a back-up singer and dancer for Shakira at Premios Juventud 2010. “Being on stage with Shakira was one of the best experiences. It all started with a Facebook message from a girl who was casting. I didn’t even know who I’d be performing with. I just knew we’d be getting paid,” she laughs. “And it turned out to be Shakira, which was obviously amazing.” Most recently, Sing qualified for E!’s new TV show “Opening Act,” which surprises up-and-coming musicians with the opportunity to open for musicians like LMFAO

and Lady Gaga. Although she didn’t make it on the show, she was one of the top 10 finalists. “It was unbelievable to see all the support I was getting,” Sing said. “I didn’t even have a Facebook page until June. I was shocked that I was in the top 10.” The Internet has obviously played a big role in Sing’s career so far. Since joining social media in June, her Facebook page has reached more than 400 likes and her YouTube videos have more than 2,000 views. “It’s amazing how you can reach people on the Internet and also the opportunities that are available through it,” she said. Her videos on YouTube include covers of Adele’s “Someone Like You” and Jackson 5’s “I Want You Back.” But Sing’s sound isn’t generic pop. She has managed to infuse an Indian twist into her music. “My music is made for the American market,” she said. “Sometimes people hear the word ‘Bollywood’ and say, ‘Oh, I don’t relate to that.’ But I grew up in America, and I loved the Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears. And now I listen to

EDM, pop, country, anything really. The only difference is you might hear a dhol [a double-headed drum used in India] instead of a drum in my music.” Sing says she hopes to introduce America to the concept of Bollywood so that people can better understand the fusion present in her music. “I look at Shakira’s dance moves, her constumes, and I love that global appeal she has,” Sing said. “I look to her for the cultural aspect of my career. I love the way she incorporates her culture into her music and performances.” With a new track, “We Can Make It,” coming out in late September, it seems like Sing’s career is just starting despite her impressive accomplishments thus far. “I hope to do a regional tour,” she said. “I want to do at least a statewide tour with my own music. I want to emphasize to America what my music and this fusion is about.” For more information, visit Facebook. com/ashasingmusic, ashasing.com, Twitter.com/AshaSingMusic or Youtube.com/ashasingmusic.

MUSIC PREVIEW

Kanye West, G.O.O.D. Music show two sides of rapper BY ROBERT PURSELL CONTRIBUTING EDGE WRITER

Kanye West has proved two things above all else to his scores of followers since he first released “The College Dropout” in 2004. The first is that, above all else, Kanye West is the biggest artist in the world today. His vision for records, his innate ability to produce a music catalog over the past eight years that is both consistently commercially successful but also critically acclaimed, his clever wordplay and super-intensive producing abilities; all of these things have defined his career. The second thing we’ve all learned about Kanye is that he is out-of-his mind, somebody-gethim-a-straitjacket insane. He’s perverse, obsessive, irrational, yet somehow masterful. He’s a crazed genius of music, and any attempt to 8

make sense of what he does would be futile. Instead, we should just sit back and enjoy the wild, crazy ride that is Kanye West. Such is the case with “Cruel Summer,” featuring Kanye and the rest of the G.O.O.D Music crew – Pusha T, Common, Kid Cudi, Cyhi and 2 Chainz. Half is a psychological study, and the other half is a braggadocios dissertation, all wrapped up in a grand, orchestral and epic production. Take the first song of the album, “To The World,” featuring R. Kelly. The song starts out with some music that is absolutely overthe-top epic. A hard driving beat with a drum line fit for a military march begins, and suddenly, this album is off to a roaring start. You feel like Kanye has prepared this album, as a coronation of sort, crowning himself the king

THE MIAMI HURRICANE

of music today. R. Kelly’s voice, as soulful as ever, comes in over the beat and it feels both incredible and dignified at the same time. Yet, somehow, the song delves into a sort of nihilism, with R. Kelly crooning to listeners to, “Stick your middle fingers up to the world.” This is the overriding, and at times disconcerting theme to this album. We find a man who has a Godcomplex, but also a perpetual sense of under appreciation. Only Kanye could rap about how he’s balling out in mink coats and how nothing anybody says can affect him, yet insult Kris Humphries, for no particular reason, for dating Kim Kardashian in the same song, “Cold.” He says Kris is “lucky I didn’t have Jay drop him from the team.” It doesn’t make sense when you’re Kanye West, the most successful rapper of the past decade, to

Sept. 17 - Sept. 19, 2012

have to start beef with a no-name NBA player for briefly being married to your fame-mongering, attention whore of a girlfriend. Sorry Kanye, Kim Kardashian sucks. The end result of these two divergent schools of thought (one says: “I’m God,” the other one says: “Nobody likes me”) is a perplexing album. It isn’t the introspective and at times confessional masterpiece that “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” was. Nor is it the over-the-top, look-at-howI’m-balling banger that “Watch The Throne” was. Instead, it is an album that vacillates between the two. “Clique,” “Mercy,” “I Don’t Like,” “New God Flow,” and “Cold” are all absolute bangers, songs filled with guest features that will be blasted through car stereo systems for months to come. Others like “To

The World,” “The Morning” and “Sin City” have flashes of the introspective, soulful side of Kanye. Yet all of these songs are sprinkled with his idiosyncrasies and character flaws that we’ve come to expect from the type of guy who would drink an entire bottle of Hennessey on the red carpet and then ruin Taylor Swift’s night in front of millions of people. The end result is an interesting look into the conscience of a mad genius that considers himself both the high king of American culture, but also the most underappreciated man on earth. It’s a self-contradicting album made by a man who is as easily detestable as he is lovable. Ultimately, it’s a hell of an album, filled with incredible production and a plethora of amazing guest verses, fully worth its sticker price.

average yards per carry for freshman running back Duke Johnson

I promise you this team is going to grow up together. They’re working hard, they’re staying humble, staying together. - AL GOLDEN, Head Coach

SOCCER

LAUREN LENNOX // CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME: Junior forward Blak Stackton looks back waiting for the ball to connect during Sunday’s game against Duke. The Hurricanes would score a last-minute goal to force overtime, but lost to the second-ranked Blue Devils 3-2 at Cobb Field. Miami is now 4-4-1 this season.

Hurricanes drop overtime thriller against No. 2 Duke Two goals from Ava Ambrose not enough BY ALEX SCHWARTZ CONTRIBUTING SPORTS WRITER

Miami battled back from a one-goal deficit once again at Cobb Stadium on Sunday, but ultimately, No. 2 ranked Duke had a bit too much firepower. After a 1-0 home loss to No. 14 Wake Forest in its ACC opener on Thursday, Miami (4-4-1) gave the visiting Blue Devils (72-0) all they could handle before falling 3-2 in overtime. “It was a restart, we threw numbers in there and we work on set pieces and

we’ve done a good job this year on scoring those,” coach Tom Anagnost said. “Ava [Ambrose] had her chances and she put them in, she did what they’re supposed to do.” Duke’s Cassie Pecht struck with the first goal of the match in just the 12th minute. In the 32nd minute, Syracuse transfer Tina Romagnuolo suffered a serious injury to her right leg and was carted off the field. Anangnost was unsure of the senior’s status after the match, but did say she was “done for the year.” Miami would not cave without the standout midfielder and used strong play from sophomore goalkeeper Emily Lillard

to stay within one goal. Sophomore Ashley Flinn nearly tied the score in the 48th minute, but her shot went just over the woodwork. In the 79th minute, UM would finally prevail. Senior Kim Hutchinson’s corner kick found the head of senior Ali Brennan, who sent it over to Ambrose. The forward then headed the ball to goal. The Blue Devils quickly regrouped though, and scored an advancing goal in the 89th minute. Senior Maddy Haller sent a long free kick into the box and redshirt junior Kim DeCesare headed it past Lillard, marking the first time this season that UM allowed multiple goals in a match. Sept. 17 - Sept. 19, 2012

With 80 seconds left, it looked like Miami’s effort would fall short in regulation, but the Canes had more set-piece magic. As with the first goal, UM had a corner sail through the box, go off a head and then end up with Ambrose. This time, the freshman used her boot to slip it into the net, evening the score with 19 seconds left. Once the game reached sudden death in overtime, Duke scored a goal that Miami could not respond to. “You know, we lost our best player,” Anagnost said. “So it’s difficult not just on the field, but just off as well. She’s close to a lot of our players and it’s a bad, devastating thing to happen, but I was proud of the way our women responded.” THE MIAMI HURRICANE

Three golfers join young squad as season kicks off Rizzo confident in development BY ANDY LEON CONTRIBUTING SPORTS WRITER

ZACH BEEKER // STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER RIGHT PLACE, RIGHT TIME: Sophomore defensive end Anthony Chickillo comes up with an interception in the third quarter of the Canes’ 38-10 win Saturday. He finished with five tackles.

Johnson wasn’t surprised that he had such a solid game, but did mention that playing at home for the first time was important to him. The Canes played their first game at Sun Life Stadium in front of an extremely sparse crowd, though the announced attendance was 39,435. “It was a big deal,” he said. “Just the fact that it’s one of the reasons I stayed close to home to play for UM is just being able to play in front of all my family, friends and fans.” The rest of the offense was sluggish when the game kicked off at noon, but managed to find its rhythm later on. Junior quarterback Stephen Morris finished 20-of-35 for 211 yards with a touchdown and an interception, but was plagued by dropped passes, overthrown routes, and miscommunication with receivers. “I think I did alright,” he said. “There are a couple of things I want to work on, obviously. A couple of times I feel like the ball slipped out a little too much. I need to work on sprints, but other than that at the end I just have to keep going and keep studying film in order for me to 10

work on it in practice.” For the second consecutive season, Bethune-Cookman struck first against the Hurricanes. The Wildcats recovered a fumble by Phillip Dorsett during a punt return to get the ball back inside Miami’s 20-yard line. Six plays later, running back Isidore Jackson finished the drive with a one-yard dash into the endzone that put Bethune-Cookman up 7-0. The Canes wasted no time responding. Johnson returned the following kickoff 95 yards for Miami’s first score. He was just warming up. Johnson picked up his third touchdown of the afternoon on a 50-yard catch-and-run from Morris to extend the Hurricanes’ lead to 24-7. “Offensive lineman Jonathan Feliciano really helped me out,” Johnson said of his third touchdown. “A lot of my big runs are because of my blocks from Feliciano.” Bethune-Cookman cut the lead to 14 in the fourth quarter on a 31-yard field goal by Sven Hurd. Johnson added his fourth touchdown of the game with just over eight minutes to go on a 26yard run that made it 31-10. After

THE MIAMI HURRICANE

the game, Morris laughed when asked if there was anything Johnson could do to surprise him in a game. “No, I’m just waiting for him to do a back flip sometime in the middle of a play,” he said. The Hurricanes would end the day with the first scoring run from a player other than Johnson when Eduardo Clements took a handoff 10 yards for the score to ice the game at 38-10 with just under four minutes remaining. Miami got the win, but couldn’t escape without a few notable injuries. Linebacker Denzel Perryman exited in the third quarter after sustaining a high ankle sprain; he walked off the field in a boot and on crutches. With the win under their belts, the Canes are now 2-1 as they prepare to travel to Georgia Tech next week. Miami has a tough matchup ahead; the Yellow Jackets racked up 594 total yards, including 461 rushing yards, in a 56-20 win over Virginia on Saturday. “I think we got better.,” Golden said. “But there’s nothing wrong with improving and winning. And that’s what we did this week – we improved and we won.”

Sept. 17 - Sept. 19, 2012

The sun is rising on a new season for the women’s golf team. This 2012-2013 campaign will add three new faces to the already young squad. Freshmen Laura Hendee from Tampa, Fla., Christina Ocampo from Delray Beach, Fla., and Lauren Riehle from Wesley Chapel, Fla. will all begin their journeys as Hurricanes. Head coach Patti Rizzo was optimistic before the season’s opener at the Cougar Classic in South Carolina. “This is a good tournament to get the new girls comfortable, we really want to start off well and I know I can count on our three returning players to help the other progress,” Rizzo said. As the freshmen practiced pitching over the bunkers, each ball rolled closer and closer to the hole, helping Riehle’s confidence grow. “It’s been exciting to be here in Miami and prepping up to play for such a prestigious school,” she said. “I know we are a young team, but we have all the more potential to do well this year.” Riehle has worked on several different techniques during the offseason. Having won two tournaments in the summer and fresh off her latest win at the Florida Junior Match-Play in Bonita Springs, Fla., she was preparing herself for a bright opening to the season. “Coach has us working on our short game today, and it’s important we don’t lose composure on our approaching shots,” Riehle said. Leticia Ras-Anderica, a sophomore from Moraira, Spain practiced her putting on

the damp greens during her first hour of practice. Patient stroke after patient stroke, Letti’s (as the team calls her) anticipation grew as each ball rolled into the cup. “It’s important to polish your putting. If you get a good ball off the tee and play it well on the fairway you can still ruin a hole with a missed putt,” Letti said. Letti finished top-10 three times last season and in the top five once. “We can teach the new girls a lot, but what is most important is that they learn from each tournament; my thing is to try and finish strong on the back nine,” she said. Another player to watch this season is Rika Park. Park, who recorded the lowest stroke total in any single round last season, hit a 69 with an average of 75.91. “I’ve been playing since I was 9 and it’s important to remember what happened last year doesn’t matter and we have a fresh start to do better things this season,” she said. On the other side of the driving range, Rizzo joined staff from the Biltmore Hotel that were testing the other two girls that make up the roster, Ocampo and Hendee. “This is just to rank them and give them an idea of what areas to focus really hard on during the tournament,” Rizzo said. As practice came to a close, Rizzo was more than excited for the upcoming tournament. However, Rizzo wasn’t the only alumna to be optimistic about the upcoming season. University of Miami’s Tina Miller had a few things to say to pump up the young team before their opening tournament. FINISH READING AT THEMIAMIHURRICANE.COM

dear ...

Dear V: He’s just not that into me... Dear Friend-Zoned, , There’s this guy I know who’s really cute and charming, but I think I’ve messed up any chance I might have had with him. I just wanted to have a fun time hanging out, and it seems like I’ve accidentally friend-zoned myself ... How do I fix things so he sees me as a possible option and not just a wing-woman? Sincerely, One of the Guys

Were you not flirting? Did you never express interest in him? Because if you’re always acting as the Bill to his Ted instead of flirting, he’ll only ever see you as a most excellent friend. You may have accidentally un-sexualized yourself. Oops. But don’t worry, it’s never too late to bring sexy back. Next time you’re talking to him, instead of pointing out cute girls, show your interest in him and not your interest in helping him get tail. Since you’ve been playing wing-woman for him, he probably doesn’t think you’re interested in him at all. Show him that you’ve got what he wants. Also, I hate to break it to you babe, but he may not be into you. Maybe he’s the one who friend-zoned you. But don’t worry; you don’t have to sit in the dark weeping that you’ll always be just ‘one of the guys’. Stop being a vagina, and make a damn move. One of two things will happen: you’ll be proven right about

i yourself getting i hot being “just friends,” or you’ll find under the covers with your new beau. Neither option is too shabby. You either get a friend or a shank out of it. It’s a win, win! So go out there and strut your stuff. Flirt a little more, but don’t make it painfully obvious that you’re into him. It’s better to get shut down (hopefully) gently and stay friends than to jealously sing “Hey hey, you you, I don’t like your girlfriend!” in your head every time you see him talking to another girl. Avril Lavigne is no longer in style. V
