SG collects textbooks to send to Iraq STUDENT GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS COLLECT BOOKS TO SEND TO PARTNER UNIVERSITY STORY BY JAMES COX | GRAPHIC BY BIKO TUSHINDE A Student Government-led initiative to ship unwanted books overseas is preparing to begin collection. The plan calls for collected books to be sent to Al-Anbar University in Iraq, one of N.C. State’s partner institutions. Senior Class President Jay Dawkins said before he heard about the link between the University and Al-Anbar University he was working with the military and a contact on the ground to get used textbooks to students who need them in Iraq. “If the book is valuable, we’ll send it across,” Dawkins, a junior in engineering, said. Tim Lipka, a senior in political science, said the collection points could be the bookstore, the Brickyard, the residence halls or the fields. “When students go to the bookstore for buyback, and the bookstore can’t buy the book back, we’ll hold them,” Lipka said. Dawkins said the inspiration for the project came from a conversation between himself, Lipka and Kevin Howle, a student body president during the 1980s. He said Howle had a project in his tenure to send books to the Philippines. Lipka said after the conversation with Howle, he and Dawkins were talking and asked each other why can’t Student Government do something similar by sending books to Iraq. Lipka said the first phase was a “Can we do it?” phase. “Once we figured out it is possible, we were able to move on,” he said. Lipka said the second phase is planning where the collection will take

place. “We have a meeting with the head of the bookstore tomorrow to discuss the possibility of collecting books at the bookstore,” he said. Lipka said phase four, storage and distribution, depends of phase three — collection. “If we get six books, we can send them UPS, but if we get 600, we may need a place to store the books,” Lipka said. Student Body President Jim Ceresnak, a junior in political science, said the project is a great way to use textbooks for good elsewhere. “It may face challenges, but it will be successful and start a good tradition,” he said.

Lipka said the project’s purpose is to improve the quality of education. “It shows we want to work with partner schools and make sure everyone gets a quality education,” he said. “We should be able to collect books during exams,” Lipka said. He also said the books may or may not be at their new home by the beginning of next semester. “If they are going halfway around the world, it may take a while for them to get there,” he said. Dawkins said another part of the project is an end of the year survey to go along with ClassEval. “This survey will give the students a chance to evaluate their textbooks,” Dawkins said.

Other books will be sent to the University’s partner institution in Iraq for students there to use.

Some books will be added to D.H. Hill Library’s reserves to bolster the library’s book offerings.

He said the survey is going to try and probe the problems of textbooks. “The survey is going to try and help solve the problems that exist — that of teachers assigning books that aren’t read and how some professors frequently change editions of the text,” Dawkins said. He said the survey will ask students to log in, select their required texts, and then rate them on readability, usability and necessity. Dawkins said the results will then be compiled and given to teachers. He said the bookstore and the library will also be shown the results to see about increased buyback, e-books and availability. “In some cases, the bookstore can

Vegetarians hungry for change Student plans to bring more diverse offerings to C-Stores Ty Johnson News Editor

A sophomore in zoology is aiming to change food offerings on campus through working with C-Stores to offer more organic foods and having more options for vegetarians and vegans. Tracy Anderson has been a vegetarian for two and a half years but has had trouble finding food options on campus since she arrived on campus. “The first year I came, the C-Stores had a couple of vegetarian things,” Anderson, who has already met with the director of campus C-Stores, said. “But when they just had stuff on the shelf, not enough people bought it for the them to keep it.” Anderson said after dealing with meager offerings this year, she decided it was time to take action. “I used to complain about it,” she said. “Then one day I realized it’s a student campus

UAB garners national attention Board ranks third in nation for fundraising

raised more than $4,000, but the total fell short of the goal Kearney had set, which lowered the board’s expectations in the competition. “We had a set goal that we didn’t reach, so we thought we’d have a lower place in the standings,� Kearney said, adding the lower expectations led to the board being surprised and excited when they found out the results. “We didn’t even care what prize we had won, we were just glad N.C. State was nationally ranked.� But the prize, Kearney said, will help next year’s UAB to be even more effective. “The board gets to send a person to one of the leadership conferences for free,� Kearney said. “Whoever goes next year will be able to network with student leaders around the country and bring it back to N.C. State. It proved to us that even though we weren’t raising money to our standards, we were able to do something that would impact people all over the world.� But beyond the conference and additional networking, next year’s UAB will benefit from knowing it was only two places behind tops in the nation — especially given the margin that separated NCSU from number one. “The top place winner only beat us by a couple hundred dollars,� Kearney said. Kearney said coming so close to being the best will help next

A nation-wide contest to raise money for UNICEF ended last week, and the Union Activities Board finished third for its efforts throughout the year. Ricci Kearney, UAB vice president and a senior in media communication, said entering the contest was the UAB adviser’s idea. “Our adviser Rick Gardner bought the nation-wide contest idea to us at the beginning of the semester,� Kearney said. “It included different ideas on how to raise money, so we incorporated them and sent in the money we raised in February.� Kearney said one of the biggest focuses of this year’s fundraising was the Red and White Charity Ball, which, this year, raised money for UNICEF. “The vice president plans the Red and White Ball every year,� Kearney said. “And it has a different charity each year picked by the board, so since we were already part of the challenge, picking this charity was pretty simple.� Kearney said the competition led to the UAB working harder to make this year’s ball a success. “We started planning to raise more money and have more attendance than last year,� he said. The ball had 500 attendees and

Support Earth Week activities during Dead Week THE ISSUE:

Earth Week activities, including the new farmers’ market in the Brickyard, and Dead Week coincide this year.

OUR OPINION:

Dead Week is no excuse to ignore the Earth.

THE SOLUTION:

Students should support the farmers’ market and other festivities and use Earth Week as a stress reliever from Dead Week.

Education should be available for everyone For all those who collected in front of the state legislature and banks on April 3, we collected under a common idea, that education is a right to be enjoyed by all, not simply those who can afford it. Demanding education is in no way to be considered greedy. However, the bankers who are responsible for this economic crisis, and who now line their pockets with large bonuses, are the real greedy ones. The North Carolina Constitution explicitly states that higher education is to “be extended to the people of the State free of expense.� Whatever happened to this ideal that it is our mission to educate the people? The idea that those who caused this crisis will bring us out of it if we give them enough money is a bankrupt idea. The people of the United States have taken on a 10 trillion dollar bank bailout while we continue to build upon our student debts and have our Universities budgets stripped. If only 15 percent of the bailout money was used towards education, we could modernize schools, reduce class sizes and make tuition free for three years nationwide. Investing in education and jobs directly is the best way to ensure recovery, not a broken trickle-down plan. Reagan’s trickle down plans from the 1980’s only further concentrated wealth and did not create the amount of jobs needed for full recovery. We need to learn from history and not repeat this folly yet again. Instead, I choose to stand up and refuse to pay for this crisis caused by the bankers and bosses. I encourage everyone to stand up today as we Rally at 2 PM at Holladay Hall against our education being watered down. The number of tenured professors and support staff has been decreasing for years while the number of unneeded high paying administrative positions continue to increase. I propose we chop from the top and demand a quality education. Ryan Thomson junior, international political science

Sometimes an elephant just an elephant Earlier today, I watched a video about an elephant that paints. I had to wonder whether this meant anything or not. After all, when a pachyderm paints, do you really expect it to look like anything? And, if it does, what are you to think? Some viewers and animal keepers interviewed in the video likened the animal’s artistic musings to postmodernism or even something approximating Picasso’s cubism. But is this fair to all of the aspiring Bob Ross’s tuning into public television stations each week to learn how to properly articulate an icy mountaintop, a smoking chimney or the elegant branches of an oak with the tips of their hobby store brushes and acrylic paints? Because, we have to ask, did the lumbering beast intend his picture to appear as it did, as something else entirely, or as nothing at all? Is the in-

s students are well aware, Dead Week is here. And as not as many students are aware, Earth Week is also here. While Dead Week certainly is a time during which most students feel dead tired and there is no end in sight to end of semester work. With exams around the corner, there is no reason why students should ignore Earth Week. The new farmers’ market in the Brickyard is a prime example of an Earth Week program that can benefit students — it gives them affordable access to local produce that may help students get away

from the stress of Dead Week. Eric Ballard, a senior in extension communication, said the farmers’ market is not just a component of Earth Week activities — Student Government is looking to make this a fixture in the Brickyard. This is an opportunity for students to get easy access to local produce, get them away from books, libraries and stress into the fresh air and establish a new fixture in the Brickyard that is less confrontational than the

Brickyard preachers. And produce is not the only thing the farmers’ market will bring to the Brickyard. Ballard said one vendor is bringing goat milk and another is bringing various skin care products and soaps made from honey. Also, all vendors need to pay a fee to help get the market set up, which will help negate any costs associated with organizing the market and remaining funds will go to Student Government. Students should ease some of

their Dead Week stress and help support a good idea that brings fresh, local produce to the University on a regular basis in an easy-to-reach location. The farmers’ market isn’t the only possible Earth Week stressbuster for students during Dead Week. Earth Week is closing out with a Friday concert on Lee Field with Annuals, Lonnie Walker and Cougar Magnum. Dead Week and Earth Week do not cancel each other out, and students should try to use one to make the other a little less stressful.

Mack Garrison, junior in art and design

Mr. and Mrs. Wuf should not change The column published April 14 regarding N.C. State’s mascots was rather disturbing to me. While I applaud you for an excellent use of phrase “the wild card� in what I believe to be you paying homage to the popular show, “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,� there were many things about this column that really bothered me. To start, why was such an article even considered in the Technician’s Viewpoint section? You commented that our mascots make our University appear to be ridiculous but the poor research and lack of logical arguments in your column are more ridiculous and frankly absurd and cause others to look poorly upon our University and Student Media as a whole. Now, on to your arguments. The present Mr. and Mrs. Wuf figures that we have as our mascots do not look like Muppets. They look like many other common mascots. You mention that they should be wild, free, and should “get rid of the clothing.� Most University mascots these days wear clothing or have another means to recognize their schools. For example, our rival UNC’s mascot, Ramses, always has a Tar Heels jersey on. It’s the same with Mr. and Mrs. Wuf. I would also like to comment that a “blood thirsty, sharp-toothed killing machine� is not necessarily a positive thing in a mascot. Yes, while it looks fierce and I agree, it may even be kind of cool, our sporting events are family environments. We don’t want a mascot that will scare away little children. That would decrease our fan base and parents and alumni might stop coming to our events if their children have nightmares about Tuffy trying to kill them. Revenue would decrease from a simple economic standpoint. That is not something our University can afford at this time. Mr. Omar, I would lastly like to draw attention to the fact that our mascots here at NCSU are our history. You, writing for a newspaper, should value history and traditions — after all, isn’t that what you are documenting? Mr. and Mrs. Wuf have been around significantly longer than you and have made a name for themselves on this campus. You have also — just as a bad columnist.

And the news to day is filled with bans: a proposed Paul McCauley b a n o n Senior Staff Columnist texting or e-mailing while driving, the ban on smoking within 25 ft. of University buildings (and proposal to ban smoking in public places in North Carolina), existing bans on transfat in foods (t he most noticeable of which is in New York City) or the supposed ban on major assignments during Dead Week. Yet these bans raise the ire of some civil liberties activists in the Republican party, while the wiretapping, extraordinary rendition and suspension of habeus corpus the Bush administration supported is “all in the past.� And Democrats are, for the most part, the polar opposite: Bush torture bad, bans on smoking, transfat and texting while driving good. Please. We live in a country where we have enormous

amounts of liberty, and it doesn’t look like that’s going to change any time in the near to somewhat-distant future. We have so many rights and freedoms so as to be overwhelmed with our freedoms. Think about it: even compared to other democratic nations, we have more civil liberties. Do the British let their citizens carry guns? And is gun ownership a pretty big liberty that lets people keep a bunch of their other liberties? The answers to those questions, respectively, are no and yes — after all, who’s going to argue about a gun owner’s right to public assembly? Maybe someone in a tank, unless the first person had armorpiercing rounds ... but I digress. As far as r i g ht s g o e s , who cares about how many bans there are? It’s a lot easier to tell people what they CAN’T do instead of what they CAN do. Why do you think the Bill of Rights is only 10 amendments? I’ll tell you: the Founding Fathers realized they’d probably die by the time they wrote down all the rights Americans should enjoy. Just imagine the hypothetical confrontation over this: James Madison: “Okay, Americans have the rights to free press, religious choice, assembly, petition, free speech, due process, speedy trial by a jury of peers and access to legal counsel, and they are protected from the gov-

It’s a lot easier to list things people can’t do instead of trying to list what they can do. For those of you still not convinced, imagine trying to come up with a list of what people can do.

tention behind a work of art not what makes it so? In this sense, it is difficult to judge whether or not the elephant is a skilled or hapless artist, or, really, an artist at all. All I really know for sure is that mankind will continue its attempts indefinitely to extract meaning from objects and events when no meaning is present and, of course, that a painting by artist Wannalee will be arriving at my home in seven to 10 business days. But what I desperately want to know whether or not this sublime creature is a cool animal?

Celebrating Earth Week

National publications recognize downtown restaurants

UNIVERSITY CELEBRATES EARTH WEEK WITH SEVERAL EVENTS, FREE CONCERT COMPILED BY CHEYENNE AUTRY

M

ore than 60 vendors will be pouring into the Brickyard on Wednesday to take part in the University’s celebration of Earth Week. The theme for this year, “Energy. Environment. Everyone.� addresses the issue of reusable and alternative energy sources. From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the official Earth Day, April 22, an energy fair, the Friends of the Library Book Sale, the first ever campus Farmer’s Market and several other events will be taking place in the Brickyard. The celebration continues into Friday with a concert on Lee Field featuring Annuals, Lonnie Walker and Cougar Magnum with a DJ performing in between bands. HISTORY

UNIVERSITY FARMER’S MARKET

OTHER EVENTS

According to the Earth Day network, Earth Day was initiated on April 22, 1970, and founded by Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson.

In conjunction with other Earth Day events, the first ever N.C. State Farmer’s Market will be opening April 22. In its trial run Wednesday, vendors will be selling a variety of North Carolina-grown products to students in the Brickyard. “We’ll have fresh produce, other miscellaneous stuff, and even some moisturizers and handmade soaps,� Eric Ballard, senior in agriculture education, said. “It’ll be a very diverse market with all local products. The non-profit program will help supply local growers and will offer items at a lower price than grocery stores. Organizers like Ballard are hoping that once the University Farmer’s Market is established, it can grow and add on more items and features such as the use of AllCampus cards and other in demand products. “Until we get this thing off the ground and a good year under our belt, we won’t be able to include all campus,� Ballard said.

In addition to events held on Wednesday, Lee Field will be hosting a free concert, an electronic recycling drive, an Earth Feast and several other events.

Nelson proposed a nat ionw ide environmental protest that would bring the issue to the forefront of the national agenda. So on April 22, 1970, 20 million Americans spread into the streets, parks and auditoriums to ask for a healthier environment. The first Earth day lead to the creation of the United States Environment Protection Agency and the passage of the Clean Air, Clean Water and Endangered Species Acts. Earth Day went global in 1990, mobilizing 200 million in over 140 countries. Earth Day got online in 2000, linking 5,000 environmental groups around the world in 184 countries. SOURCE: EARTH DAY NETWORK

The alcohol free concert, presented by the Office of Sustainability, is free to all students and one guest. University Dining is sponsoring a week-long Earth Feat that will offer sustainable food options to students on campus throughout the week. Some art events include a progressive art mural by students from Fred Olds Elementary School in the Brickyard and a recycled art exhibition in Talley Student Center. Guided tours of the Yarbrough Steam Plant, Centennial’s Advanced Energy Motor Testing Lab and the N.C. Solar Center will be offered with the inclusion of a complimentary “green� luncheon.

Designers prepare for Art to Wear With only three days till the big night, designers are making the final preparations Cheyenne Autry Deputy Features Editor

For some students, Sunday nights consist of rest and relaxation from a long weekend and dreading the start of another week. It’s the time to catch up on some sleep or watch a favorite TV program. That, however, was not the case for other students, like Chase Kennedy, in the Colleges of Textiles and Design last night. “I’m sewing buttons right now,� Kennedy, a sophomore in fashion and textile management, said. “I’ve been working all weekend and we had practices this morning.� Kennedy, like many other designers, is making his final preparations for his collection of ‘ready to wear’ men’s clothing in this year’s Art to Wear fashion show. What began as a small show held in “the pit� at the College of Design has grown into the largest fashion show produced at the University. Textiles grad student and Art to Wear director Amy Quinn, Art to Wear 2009 expects to pack thousands of spectators into Reynold’s Coliseum for its first ever indoor show. “I’m excited to see how it works in Reynold’s,� Katlyn Griffin, senior in fashion and textile management, said. “It’ll be interesting to see how we can change the atmosphere and convert all the basketball stuff into fashion.� The usually outdoor event had to find a bigger venue this year to accommodate its growth. By presenting the show in Reynold’s Coliseum,

EVENT INFO: Art to Wear 2009 begins at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 23. Tickets can be purchased for reserved seating online at www.ncsuarttowear.com. SOURCE: WWW.NCSUARTTOWEAR.COM

Art to Wear can now offer seating to all spectators, including 600 floor seats, and produce a 100 ft. runway. “I think that this year is going to be a lot bigger than it ever has been,� Alyssa McNamara, junior in textile technology, said. “We wanted to keep it on campus but it’s going to be different because it’s never been inside.� McNamara attended her first Art to Wear show as a senior in high school after her design school interview. She has focused her line around a garden theme, using a variety of vegetables, flowers and plants in her work. The production for Art to Wear is a long process that begins months in advance. Students must submit a product for judging which determines their acceptance into the show. For some, this can be the most stressful aspect of production. “I was late to my judging,� Kennedy said. “It was right after Cotton Couture so I was designing a different piece and was really stressing out about it. I was very relieved when I found out that I didn’t have to go into the room with the judges though.� For Art to Wear, judges do not allow designers into the judging room with their garments. Instead, models are sent in and stand silently as the judges appraise each individual piece. “I worked really hard that week to get something new for judging and I’ve been working really hard since then,� Kennedy said.

Laurel Saunders, then a junior in textiles and apperal management, applies make-up prior to the pre-show of last year’s Art to Wear fashion show April 10, 2008. Saunders was part of Katy Robb’s ‘Gangs of New York’ themed fashion segment.

Kennedy’s line focuses on ‘ready to wear’ men’s clothes that have their own unique features like billowing tops and closely tailored jeans. Kennedy said he wanted to help balance the show between the popularly extravagant pieces and other simpler, ready to wear projects. Griffin is also working on a collection of ready to wear pieces with their own added elements and surprises. However, Art to Wear still holds on to its reputation for extravagant and

eclectic designs. “There is a lot of variety in this year’s show,� Griffin said. “One designer is doing a full line of ready to wear outfits, another has a line based on human qualities that everyone has in common--there is even a dress hooked up to a farming plow.� However, with the show only three days away and exams looming around the corner, the pressure is starting to build. “We are all stressed out,� McNa-

mara said. “There are many things to do and there are going to be a lot of sleepless nights.� McNamara said it’s the details that are being attended to this week with a lot of designers tweaking their outfits, adding accessories and making sure pieces don’t come apart on the runway. “People are just living in the studios now,� Kennedy said. “We just put on loud music and try to keep busy the whole time.

Henry wins ACC title in shot put True freshman secures outdoor championship with 52-foot throw Daniel Ellis Sports Editor

Redshirt freshman Lawanda Henry secured the ACC title in the shot put last Friday with a 52’10.00� throw in the shot put surpassing, her old outdoor record by a foot. Henry was the favorite coming into the meet, as she led the ACC in national ranking for the event. In the indoor season, Henry also claimed the shot put title at ACCs and notched a school-record distance of 53’02.25� in the Feb. 6 meet against Virginia Tech. “It was pretty much the same people from indoor,� Henry said. “Florida State and Virginia Tech gave me the most competition. I knew they were very good throwers, and if they had all done their best, it would’ve been a real tight competition. I just got it started strong with the first throw.� Florida State won the overall team title in the ACC meet in Coral Gables, Fla. N.C. State finished fifth with a team score of 52.50, largely thanks to Henry’s performance. “When I first got down there it was really

hot,� Henry said. “The day I actually threw shot, it really calmed me down because it was a good atmosphere. Everything was perfect. It was really nice.� Henry also noted that her teammates are showing signs of improvement. “Adam [Gray], who threw discus, was already kind of hurting, but he got out there and did his best. Jason [Jones] had a really great throw that he got robbed of,� Henry said. “Brittany [McCain] was also really scared at the beginning of the season, but she has really stepped it up and was close to her personal record.� Despite her success, Henry believes that she still has plenty of room for improvement. “I’m striving to throw further than I have before,� Henry said. “I’ve just got to improve my technique effectively so that I can throw further. I’ve come a long way from the beginning of the season, and I don’t want to be so hit-or-miss with my throws.� Henry stated that she would like to work on strength conditioning if she had more free time. “I wish I could lift weights more, but with competition and practicing and stuff like that, I just don’t have time to get into the weight room,� she said.

KAY YOW SPRING GAME

Tyler Everett & Sean Klemm Staff Writers

More than 21,000 Wolfpack fans filled nearly half of Carter-Finley Stadium Saturday afternoon to see the 2009 Kay Yow Spring Game, which the white team, consisting of the first string defense and second team offense, won 10-7 against the red team, comprised of the first team offense and second team defense. Redshirt senior running back Toney Baker, who played in his first game in over two years, said he was happy to be playing with his teammates once again. “It’s very difficult being out for two years and away from the game you love,� Baker said. “But hard work pays off and I’m just truly blessed to be back out here playing.� Both the offense and defense provided the crowd with entertainment from the game’s outset, as redshirt sophomore quarterback Russell Wilson responded to a sack on the first play from scrimmage with three consecutive receptions for 49 total yards before the drive stalled just past midfield. Wilson’s string of completions brought the largest crowd at a Red-White game in recent memory to its feet early, and the crowd remained enthusiastic throughout. Redshirt senior defensive end Willie Young, who recorded two sacks in the first half, said the crowd will likely have plenty more to cheer about this fall, as he expects a special season from the Wolfpack. “I have been here for a few years now and this is the year that I’ve been waiting for and looking forward to for a long time,� Young said. “It would have been crazy for me to leave with what we have going now, with what we’ve worked towards — and it is right here, right now.�

Wilson and redshirt freshman quarterback Mike Glennon, a former highly-touted recruit making his first appearance in front of Wolfpack fans, battled back and forth with sharp, precision passing. Wilson, who only played the first half, completed 10 of 14 passes for 195 yards and a touchdown, and his 65-yard touchdown bomb to junior wide receiver Owen Spencer over the middle showed that the 2008 All-ACC quarterback has maintained his arm strength

while playing shortstop for the baseball team this spring. Glennon completed 23 of 38 passes for 272 yards and a touchdown, while playing for both the red and the white teams in the second half. O’Brien expressed satisfaction with Wilson’s progress and with the way Glennon threw the ball and said it is a blessing to have two quarterbacks capable of playing at such a high level. “Certainly he’s got a good arm and he’s got a great de-

meanor on the sideline, which I like,� O’Brien said of Glennon. “It speaks to what [Glennon] is going to bring to the table and certainly he and Russell [Wilson] give us a nice 1-2 punch.� While both quarterbacks enjoyed success, the defense put on a show with a ferocious pass rush, especially the white team, which sacked Wilson five times in the first half alone. The red team was led by senior safety Clem Johnson and redshirt junior Audi Augustin who tallied

seven tackles apiece. In addition to his seven tackles, Augustin added two first half sacks. “We went through a change two years ago when Coach O’Brien got here. Now we’re into our third year. Three strikes and you’re out. We don’t want to strike out,� Young said. “We’re going to take it to the next level, baby. We’re going to the top. We expect greatness out of this team. We’re looking to take this thing to the Promised Land.�

COUNTDOWN

After wining in the opening round of the ACC Championship, the No. 54 men’s tennis team suffered a close loss to No. 25 Miami in the quarterfinals Friday. N.C. State lost 3-4 to the Hurricanes, bringing its record to 10-15 on the season. The Wolfpack has not made it past the quarterfinal round in the ACC Championship since the 80s when it placed third. “In reality, we had every opportunity to win this match today,� coach Jon Choboy said. “Miami did a good job elevating the game.� Jay Weinacker and Jamie Pulgar finished first on the doubles court defeating Miami 8-2. This win was the duo’s 18th of the season, be-

coming the second doubles team in Wolfpack history with that many wins in a single season. The win also marked Weinacker’s 87th career doubles victory, breaking the school record. As No. 74 Christian Welte and Julian Sullivan fell 8-2 to the Canes, the doubles point came down to the number three doubles in a tight contest. Rob Lowe and David Chermak dropped the point 8-5. “At the end of the day there’s not a large margin for error when you lose the doubles point,� Choboy said. “We had to have it.� On the singles court, Pulgar finished first, defeated Christian Blocker 6-2, 6-0, while Chermak lost to Ignacio Taboada 6-1, 6-3. Playing number two, Welte fought from behind to win in straight sets 7-5, 6-4. “I finished doubles pretty early, so it was about 40 minutes before my single match,� Welte said. “I got down pretty early, down 5-1. I was just trying to break the groove and I ending up breaking [David Rosenfeld] and held my serve, and I starting going crazy.

I knew we needed my match to make it close.� After Welte’s match, Derek Stephens walked away with a vic-

tory on number three, defeating No. 113 Carl Sundberg 6-2, 6-3. Stephens’ win evened the match score to three all, as the match

came down to Weinacker playing one and Sullivan playing five as TENNIS DPOUJOVFE QBHF
