Augustana to headline PackHowl The annual PackHowl concert will conclude Homecoming Week.

PRIOR PACKHOWL CONCERTS: Candle opened 2009 Roman for comedians Jake and

Lana Layton Staff Writer

Homecoming’s kickoff started on Harris Field Sunday and will end there with the annual PackHowl concert. Augustana, whose song, “Boston,” reached number 10 on Billboard’s “Adult Pop Songs” chart, will headline the event. Ladies in Red, Fusion Dance Crew and Eddy B and Tim Gunter, a rap duo, will also perform. The free concert will take place on Harris Field Friday from 7 to 11 p.m. Anna Poole, a junior in fashion and textile management, was very excited when she found out Augustana was going to be performing at this year’s PackHowl. “I’ve been wanting to see them live so it is really convenient they are going to be right here on campus,” Poole said. Jeramy Blackford, director of student programs for the N.C. State Alumni Association, is in charge of booking the band for Homecoming. He and the six executive homecoming chairs from the Alumni Association Student Ambassador Program created a list of bands they were interested in before event planning started. Natalie Hawley, this year’s PackHowl chair, said the list of bands was “all over the place” but they wanted to pick something they knew would work well for the concert.  “We wanted it to be kind of intimate and something soft since we had a rap duo already. We thought it would be cool to mix it up,” Hawley said. AASAP had a $47,000 budget, all from donations, to spend on the Homecoming events. Blackford said unfortunately some of the ideas for bands were too expensive and they thought about bringing in bigger local bands.

During the headline act at the Pack Howl concert, Skip Matheny, the lead singer for Roman Candle, belts out the lyrics while a neck harmonica hangs unused. Roman Candle is a local group founded in Chapel Hill by Skip and his brother Logan, the group’s drummer. Students received the group well, and many danced in place as the band played.

“[PackHowl] is compared to UAB’s Friday Fest and now the Ludacris concert so we needed to bring in big acts,” Blackford said. Members of the Homecoming committee said they felt they needed a bigger name and they jumped at the chance to book Augustana for $13,500. Brittnee Rambo, who is on the Homecoming committee for AASAP, said initially they weren’t aware Augustana was available. “We had a lot of little bits of heartbreak and we really got lucky with this deal. We didn’t know they were available until a month ago. We saw the opportunity and we went ahead and jumped on it,” Rambo said.

According to Rambo, AASAP is excited to have Student Government co-sponsor the event. “They are always a very strong supporter as far as donations go. They just passed a bill to give us additional funding. We are really lucky they can be a co-sponsor of this event,” said Rambo. Ally Tucker, a sophomore in biomedical engineering, is a fan of Augustana and excited to see them perform for PackHowl. “I think Augustana was a great choice for the concert. Even if you have not listened to them before it is going to be a concert you can just come out and enjoy. The music is great and I think it will provide a great at-

mosphere to get people ready for the game on Saturday,” Tucker said. The committee feels that Augustana was the best choice for the concert and for such a diverse campus with so many musical interests. “I think Augustana is going to be perfect for the atmosphere,” Rambo said. “The response has been very positive so we are excited about that.” Hal Nunn, a sophomore in computer science, said he’s excited about attending the concert and thinks it’s great to get students excited for the game. “The Augustana concert will be the pinnacle event leading up to the big game against Wake Forest. A concert is the perfect way to energize the stu-

dent body and get us pumped for our Homecoming,” Nunn said. The Homecoming committee hopes everyone will attend the concert and have fun. Hawley said she hopes people will be supportive and try to listen to Augustana if they have never heard them before. “If you approach it with a negative mind and say ‘I don’t know [that band]’, you won’t get the most out of the experience,” said Hawley. “There is so much more to PackHowl. It is about Homecoming and the football game and the whole picture, not whether or not you like the band that is playing.” “I think people get excited for free concerts on campus, so this is a great way to get people excited for Homecoming,” said Adam McCoy, a freshman in mechanical engineering.

Campus discusses future of Tunnel Police seek ex-Wolfpack basketball player after home invasion

An emergency meeting of the African American Student Advisory Council held Friday to discussed the painting in the Free Expression Tunnel.

Gavin Grant, former N.C. State basketball player, is under investigation by Raleigh Police for a Sept. 24 home invasion.

Chelsey Francis Deputy News Editor

University administrators and student leaders gathered Friday afternoon to hear concerns about the Free Expression Tunnel. Following last Sunday’s offensive painting in the Free Expression Tunnel, Chancellor Randy Woodson sent a letter out to the student body on Monday. Wednesday night, a group of students gathered, painted the tunnel black, and blocked the tunnel in protest of the Sunday night painting and Woodson’s response to the painting. According to Woodson, the message in the tunnel was intended to harm members of the campus community. “A message to the community should be presented in a responsible and respectful way,” Woodson said. A student at the meeting thanked Woodson for the letter of Monday, but Woodson said the controversy won’t end at this point. “This isn’t the end of the discussion,” Woodson said. “We’ve got a lot of work to do.” According to another student at the meeting, the student body is raising questions about how long it will be before physical violence is the result of hate speech. The student also suggested the name of the Free Expression Tunnel be changed to the “expression tunnel,” with students required to obtain approval for writings in the tunnel prior

n the Free Expression Tunnel, Francesco Palermo, freshman in First Year College, paints V’s over the tunnel minutes after midnight on Nov. 5th. Palermo and his friends painted that on the tunnel in memory of Guy Fox day and for the movie V for Vendetta. “For us, this is more of a political statement. All politics are corrupt. With the recent GOP win, we want to remember - it doesn’t matter who wins in the end - the whole system is defunct,” Palermo said.

{OUR VIEW}

Why we need the Free Expression Tunnel T

THE FACTS:

The African American Student Advisory Council held an emergency meeting on Friday. Chancellor Woodson and other administrators took questions from students about the painting in the Free Expression Tunnel. Students questioned both the relevance of the Free Expression Tunnel and the importance of free speech.

OUR OPINION:

Asking why we need the Free Expression Tunnel is like asking why we need free expression. This principle is the foundation of our country and without it, we would cease to be a free people and country.

Hypocritical racism Let’s be honest, right now whoever painted that image in the Free Expression Tunnel is winning. They wanted to stir things up and they have certainly done so. But the N-word, which was the only racist part of what was painted, is just a word and no matter how racist its history is, there is way more racism and sexism going on in other parts of America that giving such a stink over one image and one word in a tunnel filled with people’s opinions is ridiculous. If you want the skinny on my opinion, there is not racism in America from the result of African Americans being discriminated against. There is racism and sexism in America because every time anyone applies to anything they have to put their race and sex. There is racism in America because if I were to start a “White Engineers of America” club it would get shut down, yet there can be a “National Society of Black Engineers” club. There is racism in America because 96 percent to 97 percent of African Americans voted for Barrack Obama. But apparently it’s racist to call an African American racist at all because we can’t change the past. If you were angered by what was painted, just prove something to them by becoming successful at whatever you love to do. The response to this “incident” was typical, but so hypocritical. Since I’ve attended N.C. State, the subject of diversity has been the most promoted idea across campus, yet when something controversial like this pops up it goes right out the window. “Hey everyone, let’s cover up a radical idea because we all disagree with it,” is not a solution, but hey, I guess it did bring people together behind a cause. PS: Did you know that for the first time in U.S. history women now make up the majority of professional workers? Thomas Lindsey senior, biological sciences Editor’s note: the word limit has been waved for this letter.

To offended students “Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech or of the press...” This is from the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. In lieu of the Free Expression Tunnel event that has happened on campus this week, I would like to stress the importance of First Amendment rights to offended students.

he fundamental question is, “why do we need free speech?” None of the states would allow the U.S. Constitution to be ratified without the original 10 amendments, and freedom of speech was included in the first one. Without this right, we would not be able to communicate freely and share ideas. Free speech is a fundamental concept of our society. Without it, Facebook would approve every wall post and Twitter could easily silence tweets. Students requesting the University approve Free Expression Tunnel postings is the first step towards this end. Although this gives social groups reassurance the University will protect them, this has the potential to silence more than that.

I want to first point out that I do not believe that the depiction on the Free Expression Tunnel was appropriate in any way. It was a juvenile act and offensive to many students. However, said student’s depiction is technically protected under his or her First Amendment right. We, as Americans, have this great protector called the First Amendment, even though most agree that it can be skewed at times. Every day I see many pictures and words that degrade women, sexual orientations and religions. As a woman, I find many of the depictions in the Free Expression Tunnel extremely degrading. Does the University or any other oppressed student start a protest against the Free Expression Tunnel? No. Instead, I keep walking because I recognize that some students have the maturity of a fifth grader and said painting will be covered eventually. Why, all of a sudden, does one picture raise such a controversy? Is race a more important minority than gender, sexual orientation or religion? Lastly, I believe Chancellor Woodson handled the situation very appropriately. First, this situation was completely blown out of proportion by the offended students. Although insulting, from a practical standpoint the picture was eventually going to be painted over either by the protestors or another student. In conclusion, American citizens cannot demand freedom of speech and then change our mind when something becomes offensive. Even though the depiction that the student drew was immature, this is the real world. People are free to think, and draw, whatever they would like no matter how wrong or derogatory. Such oppressed students should face this opinion with positive actions, but the Free Expression Tunnel should remain as is. Gabrielle Kattan freshman, biological sciences Editor’s note: the word limit has been waved for this letter.

Tuition help needed I managed to pick up the last copy of the Friday Technician that was outside of Clark and was immediately drawn to the article about possible financial aid changes. While reading the article, I was very upset to see a quote from Ms. Julie Rice Mallette that stated the following: “As a result, the biggest reduction we will see is for students with a $0 family contribution.” Well, this quote directly contradicts one goal of the possible change in the system, which was to move “more funds to lower income students...”. Either Ms. Mallette is a hypocrite or she’s lying. I am one of those “over 2,100 students in the $0 family contribution category” and to be quite honest, I would be paying off my school loans, if I had to get any, for at least the next 40 years because of my chosen field of teaching. How is this change in financial aid “much less dramatic when put into context”? I think that by putting it into the context

that Ms. Mallette uses you tend to turn a blind eye to the poor, high-achieving students who just can’t afford going to school without help from somewhere. I also want to address Mr. Tyler Simmons and say that NCSU is the most affordable school that I was accepted to and, as an in-state student, $18,000 per year, the approximate cost of attendance, is more than double the total income of my family. I also find laughable the fact that the financial aid will be capped so as to not even consider families who make more than $90,000. I find this cap far too excessive, mainly because with planning and saving $5,000 per year for every year their child is alive, something I feel is very possible for a family making $50,000, would, by the time they are 18, amount to $90,000, only enough for all of college and possibly a car. Well, with this cap in place, one should see no huge difference in the number of people trying to get financial aid so I don’t see how this is moving financial aid towards those in the greatest need. I feel that loans should be tiered in the opposite manner from financial aid, with as little financial aid as possible for the lowest income tier coming from loans. I don’t know how the system works, and probably never will; however, I do hope that somebody fixes the system so that people who are the worst off financially and still have a desire to succeed can do so without cost being a constraint. Thomas Grimes sophomore, science education

Don’t infringe on others’ rights I was furious when I read the article “Free Expression Tunnelblocked to fight Racism” in the Technician. I had no idea that peoplephysically blocked off the tunnel. How do they not see that doingsomething like that is exactly what crosses the line betweenexercising one’s own rights and infringing on others’? As a taxpayer,I have helped pay for the renovations to the Free Expression Tunneland have the right to benefit from them. As a student, I have paidtuition to N.C. State and have the right to utilize the campus as isnecessary for my education. As an employee, I have the right totravel to my place of work unimpeded. As a citizen, I have the rightto be on public land. The Free Expression Tunnel is the onlywheelchair accessible route to the north side of campus between DanAllen Drive and Pullen Road. Were the people blocking off the tunnelreally not going to let someone in a wheelchair through after a longnight at D.H. Hill? The blocking off of the Free Expression Tunnel was, regardlessof the intent, a worse offense to our campus than the message it wasprotesting. Not only because it crossed the line that separates freeexpression from infringing on others’ rights, but because it is thefirst step down a frightening road where emotions are allowed tooverrule reason. We need look no further than our nation’s historyover the

past decade to see where that leads. The Patriot Act passedeasily two months after Sept. 11, buoyed by the strong emotionsall Americans felt at that time. One radical group’s act of hatetowards America caused us to act without taking adequate time to thinkand to pass legislation that has almost completely eroded our civilliberties with no help in sight from the current presidentialadministration. Thankfully, all of the University administrators thathave spoken out on this issue seem to realize this and have saidrepeatedly that doing away with the free expression tunnel is not anoption. The whole notion of a “hate crime”, where a crime is judgedbased on what group the defendant associates themselves with, isludicrous. An act is either a crime or it’s not and, according tothe United States’ Constitution, all defendants should be treatedequally. That being said, the debate about certain forms of freespeech “inciting violence” or creating a learning environment that isunequal for certain people is a good one and has been addressed inmany court cases. If a suspect is identified in this situation, ajudge would have to make the determination as to whether theprecedents set in these cases apply. If they are judged to apply, thecase should be pursued, but the crime should not be judged based onwho it targeted, as that is blatantly unconstitutional. Views such as those found in the Free Expression Tunnel thisweek, as abhorrent as they may be, are a part of living in a freesociety. That same freedom allows everyone else to express that suchviews are not accepted by the overwhelming majority of society. TheUniversity should be applauded for coming together to denounce suchviews and any protest that does not infringe on others’ rights shouldbe supported. What should not be condoned are protests that infringeon others’ rights or actions that are taken in haste without thinkingabout the consequences, especially those consequences that couldaffect all of our freedom.

Centennial golf course in full swing The Lonnie Poole Golf Course on Centennial Campus is open to the public, but also hosts the University’s golf teams and is a “teaching laboratory” for turfgrass management students. Zachary Diezel Staff Writer

N.C. State features so many facilities that it can be hard to keep track of them all. There are the woodworking shop, theaters and cinemas, D.H. Hill Library and an Olympic sized swimming pool — and an 18-hole golf course. Yes, the University has a golf course. Located just south of Centennial Campus, Lonnie Poole Golf Course is a fully functional 18-hole course and practice facility designed by golfing legend Arnold Palmer. Opened in 2009, it is open to the public and has played host to events ranging from collegiate tournaments to alumni center functions. With the recent cuts to the University’s budget, many question whether a golf course is a proper use of money. According to the Lonnie Poole website, the construction of the course and clubhouse cost $11.2 million. According to Nick Dillman, a PGA assistant golf professional employed by Lonnie Poole Golf Course, the golf course received no funding from the University. “It is all privately donated, all privately funded,” Dillman said. The golf course is funded by a combination of fees from users and recurring donations from charter partners —no money comes from the University. “The way the charter partners are approached, they can make a one-time donation and we will put it toward a good cause, but most give over a number of years,” Dillman said. “Our charter partners really help out in our times of need.” The golf course serves many func-

tions. It is the home of the men’s and women’s golf teams; a venue for alumni, college and private events and a “living laboratory” for the Department of Agriculture. According to Dillman, the course can average as many as 150 rounds golfed a day in the summer and typically has about 115 rounds golfed per day in the fall. Before the construction of the course, the University’s golf teams were without a permanent home. “We used to joke that we [the golf team] were nomads,” Page Marsh, head coach of the woman’s golf team, said. In years past, the team needed to travel a good distance to practice, and was unable to host tournaments. “It helps with having much less drive time,” Marsh said. “Less drive time means more study time for the players.” According to Marsh, the Arnold Palmer Design Company designed the course. “It is really a championship course,” Marsh said. “It prepares us to play wherever we go… If you can play Lonnie Poole, you can play anywhere.” Chip Watson, general manager of golf course and men’s golf team assistant coach, holds a similar view. “The golf course is awesome and top quality,” Watson said. “It gives us a championship place to play and practice and helps in recruiting.” In the short time the University has had the course, the golf teams have been doing very well. “We’ve hosted two events: every April and every October. This past October was the Wolfpack Intercollegiate Tournament,” Dillman said. “About 12 schools came here and the Wolfpack placed first as a team and our own Albin Choi [placed first] individually. It was a good showing for us. The men’s golf team has won a couple events already, as well as the women’s golf team. We’re ranked pretty high as far as Golfweek puts us.” The golf course is also used by the

Department of Agriculture. “We have one of the best turfgrass management programs in the nation,” Dillman said. “To have a golf course where they can study makes it a living laboratory where they can just come out here a lot.” “They kind of head our greens keeping operation. They come out here all the time to run studies and get the place looking as good as possible. They do a really good job,” Dillman said. “It’s cool to see the science we’re teaching the student come alive out here.” Many groups and organizations on campus have used Lonnie Poole Golf Course as a venue for their events. “We work with the Alumni Association and the State Club a lot,” Dillman said. According to Dillman, a popular event for alumni is a tournament, followed by food and wine at the alumni center.

Chancellor Randy Woodson speaks to students and faculty in a meeting Friday to address events in the free expression tunnel earlier in the week. During the meeting, students were given an opportunity to speak and ask questions about the future of the tunnel and ideas for dealing with similar problems in the future.

to painting. Demi Olubanwo, a senior in communications media, questioned the existence of the Free Expression Tunnel. “Why do we need the Free Expression Tunnel,” Olubanwo said. “The answer has to come from the community, not the chancellor.” According to Woodson, the attendees of the emergency meeting came because of their interest in the situation.

The Technician staff is always looking for new members to write, design or take photos. Visit www. ncsu.edu/sma for more information.

“You have all come here today because you are passionate,” Woodson said. “How do you broaden the discussion to scholarly discourse?” According to administration at the meeting, after a different Free Expression Tunnel incident in 2008, the University created a Values and Ethics Advisory Council. Woodson also explained his reasoning for moving student affairs to be under the provost instead of under him. “Student affairs talks to the provost directly,” Woodson said.

According to Woodson, because of this move, student affairs and the provost has more access to diversity resources. According to Woodson and other University officials, the University is considering restructuring general education requirements to better adapt diversity courses.

From there, the game became very defensive as both teams received a combined total of eight yellow cards. Sophomore defender David Brown was the cause of a yellow card early in the second half. Brown collided with UVA star Will Bates and fell to the ground, only to have Bates fall directly on him. Brown noted that the collision wasn’t intentional, but that as a defender, it’s important to be physical. “Right from the beginning, me and Sonny [Mukungu] just try and get somebody,” Brown said. “We have to send a message across that says, ‘You can’t dribble at us.’ You have to get them scared and knowing that we’re there. It sets the tempo for the rest of the game and makes them a little timid.” The team effort by the Pack was something that very few see. The seniors, on their last night at home, showed they were leaving a great program, but that there were also some great players to come. The coaching staff was sure to recognize the efforts of both the seniors and the rest of the Pack. “The seniors have a tremendous commitment to win,” coach George Tarantini said. “When you have that, everything is easy. I am very proud for what we have accomplished. In three days, we have to play one of the best tournaments in the country. We welcome the challenge and we treasure the opportunity.” The Wolfpack will return to action Tuesday at 1 p.m. as it takes on Virginia Tech in the ACC Tournament at the WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary.

They allow you to utilize the game film to improve.” Despite the 56-point victory, Holston said the team still has many areas for improvement. “We just have to work on the little things, make sure we’re boxing out on every shot, crashing the boards on every shot,” Holston said. “On offense we still have to execute. Tonight obviously we were bigger and stronger than this team, but when we play somebody that’s going to be bigger than us most of the time, we have to be able to execute our offense.”

The N.C. State volleyball team came up short against Duke Friday night, losing in three consecutive sets in Reynolds Coliseum. The loss brought the Pack’s record to 13-14 overall and 3-12 in the ACC. The first set started off relatively strong for the Pack, with freshman Anna Moore scoring the first point. The set remained close with one lead change and four ties until the middle, when the Pack tied the Blue Devils at 13-13. From there, Duke pulled away and finished the set strongly with a 25-17 win. Junior Luciana Shafer said the players realized they were not playing up to their standards in the first set and wanted to turn things around in the second set. “I think as a team we decided we weren’t playing well at all,” Shafer said. “After that, we came out and were like, ‘Okay, it’s a new game, let’s go. Let’s come together and play hard’.” The second set was a backand-forth affair, as the two teams changed leads only twice until it was finally tied at 20-20. From there, the rest of the set was riddled with Wolfpack attacking and blocking errors, which resulted in a 25-20 victory for the Devils. State had a much tougher time controlling the Devils’ offense in the final set. After being tied 2-2, Duke dominated the rest of the set, surging to a 24-13 lead. At this point in the set, it

seemed as though there may have been a comeback in the works when junior Kelly Wood scored with a service ace off Duke senior Becci Burling, cutting the deficit to 24-14. However, it was too little too late as the Devils finished the Pack off with a 25-14 victory in the third and final set. A key factor in the team’s lackluster third set performance was the disappointing defeat suffered in the second set, according to junior Margaret Salata. “There was a little bit of frustration [remaining] from the second set,” Salata said. “We did not believe that we could truly do it. We need to stay overall consistent. We need to come out strong together at the same time every time we play.” Shafer attributed the defeat to a lack of mental preparation and communication amongst players. “I don’t think we were mentally focused the entire game,” Shafer said. “I think it is just something, as a team, we need to all be on the same page. We need to be ready to play for every point in every match. We need to know that every point matters.” The Pack hits the road later this week to take on Miami on Friday and Florida State on Sunday. Earlier this season, the Pack fell to Florida State 3-1 and defeated Miami 3-0. Salata said she and the rest of the team are excited about traveling to Florida, trying to duplicate the success they had against the Hurricanes earlier this season. “I’m excited to do it again,” Salata said. “Miami is one of my favorite places to go play away at. I’m also excited to play Florida State again. It is a very good opportunity for us to win.”

Men’s basketball takes on Pfeiffer in exhibition game

Wolfpack fans will get their first look at the new and improved N.C. State basketball team tomorrow as the squad takes on Pfeiffer at 7 p.m. in Reynolds Coliseum. With the return of seniors Tracy Smith and Javi Gonzalez, as well as the addition of highly touted freshmen C.J. Leslie, Ryan Harrow and Lorenzo Brown, the Pack carries lofty expectations into the 2010-11 season. In Sidney Lowe’s fifth season at the coaching helm, the team will be looking to reach the NCAA tournament for the first time since the departure of former coach Herb Sendek.

Losses by Florida State and Maryland later in the afternoon Saturday have the Pack in the same predicament in the standings as it was before Saturday’s mistake-filled loss to Clemson. Tied at 3-2 in the ACC with Maryland and still in possession of the tiebreaker over the Noles, who are 4-2 in conference play, State can still win out and play in the conference title game. But after losing to an opponent that fumbled the ball five times and committed seven penalties, it was clear to many both inside and outside the Wolfpack locker room that the one-point loss hurt even worse than a scoreboard showing 14-13 indicated. As it has throughout much of the season, the Pack again struggled to convert after moving into scoring position. Including Saturday’s loss, State has made 48 trips into opposing red zones, but has finished only 24 of those in the end zone. Against Clemson, redshirt junior quarterback Russell Wilson and Co. penetrated the Tiger red zone five times, but only converted one of those opportunities into a touchdown. In five series in the red zone, State

During his four-year career at N.C. State (2005-09), the former McDonald’s All-American averaged 12.6 points and 5.9 rebounds per game. As a redshirt junior, Costner’s production declined as a result of the addition of current Cleveland Cavaliers forward J.J. Hickson, and opted to declare for the NBA Draft but was not selected.

After an emotional senior day presentation, the men’s soccer team took down No. 15 Virginia 2-0 in the final game of the regular season Saturday night. Though it was the coldest game of the season, the fans were still in attendance showing their support as the Pack (9-7-2, 1-5-2 ACC) won its first conference game of the year against the defending national champion Cavaliers. The student section showed its pride as well, as the group known as “Red Alert” made its voice heard.

With a chance to answer what proved to be a gamewinning touchdown run by Clemson with 6:18 to play, the Pack elected to punt on a fourth-and-one from the Clemson 43 with less than four minutes remaining.

But Graham was unable to reel it in, and all had Clemson had to do to seal the victory was kneel and run out the clock.

“Our level of intensity is inversely proportional to the distance from the Event One staff,” sophomore in biology Rickey Smith said. “So the further they are from us, the rowdier we can get. If some of them know us personally though, we might be able to get away with more.” Seniors Tyler Lassiter, Lucas Carpenter, Chris Zuerner and Akil DeFreitas were all recognized for their dedication to the team during their careers with the Wolfpack. The rest of the seniors made up for Lucas Carpenter’s absence, which was due to injury. Lassiter and Zuerner pushed the tempo through most of the game, attempting a combined four shots. DeFreitas played his part as he recorded both an assist and a goal for the match. In the 32nd minute, DeFreitas

managed to break free from two UVA defenders and found junior Craig Sutherland who put the ball in the back of the net, giving State the lead. DeFreitas attributed his quick pace of play to his natural ability. “It’s just natural [speed],” DeFreitas said. “My dad is fast and I guess genetics worked in my favor. It’s nothing I practice. It’s just my given ability.” Only three minutes into the second half, DeFreitas once again showed his seniority as he quickly dribbled the ball past a UVA defender and scored on an assist from sophomore midfielder Michael Smith, pushing the Pack’s lead to 2-0.
