Community celebrates Tony Robinson’s birthday By Negassi Tesfamichael THE DAILY CARDINAL
WILL CHIZEK/THE DAILY CARDINAL
Andrea Irwin, Tony Robinson’s mother, thanked the crowd for their support over the last seven months since her son’s death.
Seven months removed from the fatal shooting of 19-year-old Tony Robinson, community members gathered Sunday to sing “Happy Birthday” to the teenager who would have turned 20. Organizers of the event included the Young Gifted and Black Coalition, along with family and friends of Robinson, whose death sparked debate nationally on police relations with black men. “We have a police chief that thinks implicit bias training and mental health training is the way to go even though all of that was implemented before Tony’s murder,” said Matthew Braunginn, a YGB organizer. “There’s a whole host of issues that we need to address, but first and foremost we
have to be honest with ourselves.” The months following the incident where Madison Police Department Officer Matt Kenny fatally shot Robinson have been tough on the family, according to Robinson’s mother Andrea Irwin. “It’s been surreal, unimaginable, a dream at times and a nightmare at most,” she said. “ I’ve seen the worst of people and the best of people.” Irwin said she visited her son’s grave and told her son the story of when he was born, a tradition she does with each of her children on their birthday. “I will always know where my son is going to be now, and every year instead of waking up to my son asking me where we’re going to eat, I have to deal with the fact that he is gone,” she said. In May, Dane County District
Attorney Ismael Ozanne announced he would not criminally charge Kenny in the incident. An internal investigation by MPD also found Kenny compliant with their use-of-force policy and have had Kenny return to the force in non-patrol duties.
“It’s been surreal, unimaginable, a dream at times and a nightmare at most.” Andrea Irwin mother of Tony Robinson
The Robinson family sued the City of Madison in August for their response to the incident, though last week the city filed a letter to the federal court handling the case to dismiss the lawsuit, claiming the Kenny’s use-of-force was justified.
Levitan fields questions about his hit TV show ‘Modern Family’ By Sammy Gibbons THE DAILY CARDINAL
Steve Levitan, creator of the comedy show “Modern Family,” visited campus Thursday as one of a series of alumni speakers. Using a charm that viewers would find on the hit television show, he spoke and answered questions about his life achievements that got him to where he is. Levitan attended UW-Madison from 1980 to 1984, where he took many communi-
cations courses and had interest in broadcasting. After writing for multiple shows, he created “Modern Family” with his producing partner, Chris Lloyd, which premiered in 2009. Levitan answered questions of how his years of screenwriting led him to “Modern Family.” He discussed setbacks in his career, and how he came up with a better idea when his earlier ones failed. “One of the things you can take from anything in life, really, is from your failures come
the most valuable lessons,” Levitan said. “Especially, by the way, when you’re doing anything creative.” He encouraged attendees to continue to “embrace creative moments” and watch what happens around them because “if you’re smart, something good will come from it.” Much of what makes “Modern Family” so likable, Levitan said, is that it resonates with people

Experts weigh benefits, challenges of new county restorative justice program By Martin Rakacolli THE DAILY CARDINAL
Two experts from the Center for Court Innovation met with Dane County officials Thursday to discuss the restorative justice programs Madison is implementing for 12-to-16-year-olds. The restorative justice program involves sending certain cases to a court run by trained community members who help to ensure those cases are dealt with in a productive manner, according to Center for Court Innovation official Brett Taylor. “Some of the cases the restorative justice approach would take on are cases that are really not
the best cases the justice system is designed or equipped to handle,” Taylor said. The cases the restorative justice system would help to address are relatively minor cases involving underlying issues that need to be addressed, rather than singular events that need to be punished, according to Taylor. “Often there’s a much larger story there than just what happens that got them in front of the court in the first place,” said Linda Baird, associate director of Youth Justice Programs. “What’s great about these programs is that they’re able to refer them to services to [address] those under-
lying issues that may have gotten them there.” According to Taylor and Baird, there is evidence to indicate that juvenile offenders who go through these programs tend to reoffend at a lower rate than those who do not. “[Restorative justice] is impacting the justice system at some level by siphoning off some of the lower-level cases that clog up the system. [These cases] never really get responded to in a meaningful way in the justice system,” Taylor said. “It allows the justice system to focus on the more serious cases that [it] is designed to handle.”

Keju, a six-month-old Bornean orangutan, will move away from its mother Kawan to be with a surrogate mother in Atlanta.
Baby orangutan moves to Atlanta zoo after mother neglects its needs Dane County’s Henry Vilas Zoo decided to move its six-month-old Bornean orangutan named Keju to Zoo Atlanta. Following Keju’s birth, its mother Kawan “became lethargic” to its baby, prompting zoo officials to take on the primary responsibilities of taking care of the orangutan around the clock, according to a Friday statement. “At Dane County Henry Vilas Zoo our number one priority is the welfare of our animals,” said Ronda Schwetz, Dane County’s Henry Vilas Zoo director, in a
statement. “Keju’s move to Zoo Atlanta will enable Keju a better chance at success being raised by an orangutan with a more experienced surrogate mother.” The zoo made its decision after consulting the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. The Zoo Atlanta houses the nation’s largest zoological collection of great apes and has a successful history with integrating infants to their surrogates at the zoo, including orangutans, according to the release. —Negassi Tesfamichael

Abloh, Stulman bring ‘rebellious vibes’ back to UW By Will Chizek THE DAILY CARDINAL
Once UW-Madison roommates, long-time Kanye West creative director and fashion designer Virgil Abloh and New York City restaurateur Gabriel Stulman drew students, faculty and community members Thursday evening to discuss their insights on college, careers and creative endeavors. In their years at UW-Madison, Abloh studied engineering, while Stulman studied history and political science. Abloh and Stulman returned to campus as Abloh recently put his creative spin on the 2015 UW Alumni Red Shirt design and Stulman has built a successful group of restaurants. Abloh went on to work with hip-hop and fashion icon Kanye West and then launched his own clothing line, Off-White. Stulman tried his hand in the restaurant business, building a portfolio of high-end, accomplished restaurants in New York City. The experiences the two received from UW-Madison were at the forefront of Thursday’s conversation. “It wasn’t an independent decision,” Abloh said on the choice to attend UW-Madison and study engineering, citing pressure from his father. However, Abloh made a distinct
levitan from page 1 all over the world. He writes loosely about his own life, the Dunphys being a reflection of his family, to get the raw-feeling material for each episode. “One of my favorite things is that I get to just write about my life,” Levitan said. He added how he feels the writing room is the most unusual place in the world because writers have to delve into their own lives to find relatable, personal stories. “The success of ‘Modern Family’ came from being real about subject matter, and not shying away from it or putting a spin on it,” Levitan said. “Modern Family” is one of

2003 UW-Madison alumni Virgil Abloh and Gabriel Stulman share their experiences and advice. personal choice to grow creatively while at UW. “If I’m going to figure out how to get this degree, I’m not going to have a boring, shitty time doing it. I’m going to learn in-between. I’m going to find something I’m passionate about, ” Abloh said, describing his aesthe first shows to portray samesex parents. Levitan said this is part of what keeps the show relevant while contributing in a small way to conversations about homosexuality. He said the show could not be called “modern” without including a gay couple. Levitan encouraged students to take advantage of all opportunities that are offered and focus on presenting oneself, instead of worrying about one’s transcript. “Write things that you care about, that are important to you … if it’s interesting to you, if it’s a burning passion … I promise you not only you care about it,” Levitan said. “Dig deep, look around everyday … Enjoy the journey.”
thetic as “chill, rebellious vibes.” Abloh also pointed to how skills in engineering and multitasking influenced his career in the arts. He described multitasking as the “biggest asset you can have in life … Most people tap out.” Stulman described the com-
munication skills and work ethic he cultivated in college as major factors to his achievements in the restaurant business. “I read that book, I skimmed that, I skimmed that. You take out sections and sentences and paragraphs and you regurgitate that into your own ideas. I abso-
lutely apply that on a daily basis … I got to take a lot of information and I have to make decisions. That is something I absolutely fine-tuned here,” Stulman said. “But I clearly don’t do shit with history.” The young professionals also shared successes and failures of their careers, while giving advice and hope to students seeking a career in creative or entrepreneurial fields. At the cornerstone of both speakers’ interests was the need to cultivate young talent. Abloh described his personal motto as “the youth will always win,” a phrase seen throughout Off-White. U W-M a d i s o n junior Savannah Bigelow said she was excited for the opportunity to meet the man behind the brand. “I love Off-White, I think it’s a gorgeous brand. I love Virgil,” Bigelow said. “I read his writeup in Vogue and when I heard he was coming to Wisco and he went here I knew I had to come.” The alumni ended the night with encouragement and optimism. “Out of the whole campus, you guys came here just looking for something. I’m ending it by saying you have it. You have the ambition to take this time out of your day to go here, two random kids … So basically, in parting,” Abloh said, “kill it.”
Wisconsin ends fiscal year with $135 million budget surplus, according to state report By Andrew Bahl THE DAILY CARDINAL
Budget cuts and delays in debt payments have left the state with a $135 million budget surplus, according to the yearly fiscal report released by the state Department of Administration Oct. 13. The state had been projected to end the fiscal year with an almost $300 million deficit, even though the state constitution requires the Legislature pass a balanced budget. Lawmakers touted the fiscal turnaround as an example of careful budgeting. “Careful budgeting and tax cuts are creating an environment where revenues are growing better than predicted,” Joint Finance Committee Chairs state Rep. John Nygren, R-Marinette,
and state Sen. Alberta Darling, R-River Hills, said in a statement. “Wisconsin continues to be better off than it was five years ago. Republicans will continue to protect taxpayers and boost our vastly improved business climate.” It is unclear, however, how much of the savings are a result of austerity in the most recent budget. The majority of the surplus came from delaying $108 million in short-term debt payments and collecting $71 million more in tax revenue than expected. Delaying the debt service could force taxpayers to wind up footing more interest and principal payments in the future. Democratic legislators called the surplus “false” and said Republicans should work to address other problems facing
the state. “At a time of national economic growth for most other states, Republican legislators are relying on band-aids just to keep our state government going,” state Rep. Chris Taylor, D-Madison, said in a statement. “Instead of patting themselves on the back for a fake surplus, Republicans should be working to address the $250 million hole they left in the UW system and the flat funding for Wisconsin’s struggling public schools.” School aid represented the largest chunk of the state’s budget, accounting for over $5.3 billion of a $15.6 billion total budget. The University of Wisconsin System accounted for slightly over $1 billion, a 0.8 percent decrease from last year.

DIIV delivers eclectic show for lively Majestic audience By Sam Marz THE DAILY CARDINAL
ELI RADTKE/THE DAILY CARDINAL
The Underachievers performed at the Majestic Thursday night.
Underachievers brings electric set to Madison By Eli Radtke THE DAILY CARDINAL
The Majestic was buzzing with electricity Thursday night as the floor slowly filled and bodies writhed with excitement for The Underachievers show. Colorful shirts sporting even more colorful slogans swayed to the beat as shoes tapped and the crowd waited for the set to begin. The lights dimmed and the crowd got loud as Kirk Knight stepped on stage to help open the set. With a backdrop collage of different moon pictures, Knight explored the stage and engaged the crowd. Though hesitant at first, after the soft glow of a couple lighters the crowd began to loosen up and enjoy the driving style that Knight brought to the stage. His genuine and energetic performance left the crowd cheering and wanting more as he bequeathed the stage to Pouya and the Buffet Boys. Taking the stage, Pouya and the Bufffet Boys didn’t waste time laying down more tracks that the audience could jive to. From Florida, this group had an interesting sound that kept the crowd engaged and participating, if nothing else. They relied mostly on noise and head banging and when they signed off it was clear the crowd was ready for the main event. The lights dimmed and the level of sound increased exponentially as the projector screen above the stage flickered to life. You could hear AK and Issa Gold’s voices as images of The Underachievers recording flashed across the screen. The two talked to the audience about their musical goals and how they hope to make a change no matter how little it is, as well as where they came from. The screen switched to a logo of The Underachievers and the duo themselves took the stage. Smoke machines whirred before the event staff realized there was no need, as the audience prepared their own pungent supplies for the concert. The opening notes to “Philanthropist” began to play and any semblance of calm was lost as the crowd pitched and danced like the sea during a storm. Gold and AK wasted no time with warming up to
the venue, they moved around the stage spitting rhymes and moving to the beat as if they had been on that stage their whole lives. I moved upstairs to get a better view and appreciate the set without being tossed around by the ebb and flow of the crowd. The Underachievers squinted, called for blue lights and smiled when the glow illuminated the stage and then rolled right into another song. Looking down at the crowd from above, it was mesmerizing, like a scene from a zombie movie when massive amounts of people are just writhing together. The floor was one giant mosh pit. This wasn’t the kind of mosh that is frightening or aggressive—if any mosh can be coined unaggressive—but one where people generally looked like they were having a lot of fun getting shoved around. The set continued as they ran through some of the more popular hits from their solo work like The Lords of Flatbush, which seemed to be crowd favorites. The music was constant; there was not much time to talk, which was the way that the crowd seemed to enjoy the set. The brief breaks that were taken by The Underachievers between songs were a refreshing chance to see how this dynamic duo was outside of their music. They made witty remarks and sly hints at the next song and kept the crowd wanting more, which The Underachievers were happy to give. The energy was already palpable, but when they played “Gold Soul Theory” the energy turned up to a new level. “Herb Shuttles” and other hits followed until The Underachievers raised a peace to the crowd and walked off and roars of appreciation followed them. Leaving the Majestic there was a happy glow of exhausted and satisfied fans. I breathed in the cool night air on King Street, the stench of herb and sweat left behind and replaced by blacktop and cigarettes. The Underachievers may have been a long way from New York, but with their electric stage presence and engaging set list, they made everyone feel like they were right at home.
State Street may have been dead Tuesday night, but the Majestic Theatre could not have been more alive as the New York City-based band DIIV took the stage. I stepped into the theater without expectation, having only heard of the band because they were playing at the Majestic. Not only was this my first experience with DIIV, it was my first experience in the theater itself. The venue provided an enclosed setting and as a result, I found myself fully immersed auditorily and visually within the spectacle onstage.
The show breathed life into an otherwise quiet Tuesday night, and made a fan out of someone who had never heard of them before. From the very beginning, DIIV came off simultaneously as an emerging band and a seasoned one. They are led by frontman and lead singer Zachary Cole Smith, who is no novice to the musical scene. Smith began working on DIIV in 2011, having previously played in bands like Beach Fossils and Soft Black as a guitarist. This experience was evident Tuesday as Smith and the rest of the band— most prominently lead guitar-
ist Andrew Bailey—played the stage with ease. I was immediately intrigued by their eclectic sound—an attractive medley of indie rock tones and electric vibes that had me and the rest of the crowd dancing from one note to the next. The quality of performance was nearly on par with those you might see headlining a Summerfest stage, save for a few missteps here and there. Smith’s vocals, although fine in pitch, were drowned out at times by instrumentals around him. This did not detract from the performance as a whole, though. In fact, the band’s strengths seem to lie in these very instrumental sounds, with the lyrics working to enhance the beats rather than the other way around. Their performance of tracks like “How Long Have You Known,” from their 2012 debut album Oshin provided a blend of synthetic beats with a steady, subdued guitar. This offered a nice contrast to newer material like “Dopamine,” an upbeat tune that gave my feet a mind of their own as they tapped and danced to the rhythm. That energy was evident among my fellow spectators, who would go on to call the band back onto the stage for a two-song encore. The stage production itself was also a nice stylistic touch. Although the Majestic Theatre is small, these effects made
let your
the most of that space, like the use of a projector that lit up the stage with a collage of moving pictures. While the curtains on stage distorted these images slightly, the mere use of the projector contributed to the energy of the entire show. Black lights were also used to highlight Bailey’s neon-green guitar. Highlighting Bailey was a good choice, because he was arguably the man that stole the show onstage; energy emanated from every strummed chord as Bailey worked his section of the stage, bobbing his head to the music right along with us in the audience. That kind of energy could have been a little more prominent in other members of the band, who were much more rigid in comparison.
From the very beginning, DIIV came off simultaneously as an emerging band and a seasoned one.
DIIV’s movement on stage left something to be desired, but the musicality of their live performance did not. Their set gave a unique contribution to an emerging genre of music. The show breathed life into an otherwise quiet Tuesday night, and made a fan out of someone who had never heard of them before.

The Wisconsin Institutes for Discovery was built with the purpose of focusing on the combination of public and privatized research.
Putting the Apple funds to use SEBASTIAN VAN BASTELAER Opinion Columnist
A
pple Inc. was recently ordered to pay the University of Wisconsin $234 million for infringing on a patent. Although this is far lower than the original reported $862 million, it’s still a substantial sum. Much of the money will presumably go back to the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation and be reinvested in research. But why not consider some more fun options.
Why don’t we put our money where our mouth is?
Expedite the Memorial Union construction Though the university already invested $52 million in the renovation of the Union, maybe a little more money could help speed along the process. Though it may seem like it’s pouring more funds into an already expensive project, people will regret it when the first day of spring comes, and students aren’t able to listen to live music and enjoy Babcock ice cream while watching the sun set over Lake Mendota. Maybe then they’ll wish they had chipped in a few dollars to expedite the process. Or a few million dollars. Lower out-of-state tuition OK, you got me. I’m an out-
of-state student. I’m biased. But hear me out here. When out-ofstate tuition is raised, fewer students will be able to afford the school, thus fewer will apply. As a result, the university will have to lower its standards and accept a higher percentage of out-ofstaters. Both of these statistics will reflect poorly on the university. Incoming out-of-state freshmen this year are now forced to pay $27,000 more over four years than they would have had to pay before the tuition hike. This amounts to an extra year of tuition, something prohibitively expensive for some families.
Ironically, students looking for a souvenir pilfered the very same birds that represented the university’s generosity.
Invest in two-ply Certain parts of living in the dorms are to be expected. Sharing a room with (usually) a complete stranger, living away from the comforts and cooking of home and having to wear shoes at all hours of the day are all rites of passage. A line must be drawn, however, at the rough, single-ply toilet paper. We should only have to sacrifice
so much. Take Babcock ice cream to the next level Admittedly, the ideas become even more wildly implausible from here on out. But here it goes. We all believe that Babcock ice cream is the best in the world. Why don’t we put our money where our mouth is? That’s right: Expand to markets nationwide, and watch the money roll in. This idea may be the most viable—though still extremely unlikely—because it’s the only one with the capacity to gain back some of the exorbitant funds being spent. Pink flamingos for all Over homecoming week, plastic pink flamingos were plastered on Bascom as a physical manifestation of generous donations made by the community. Ironically, students looking for a souvenir pilfered the very same birds that represented the university’s generosity. Giving everyone a free one would please the masses, and quell the chronic thieving of our city’s beloved official bird. No more smelly grass Legends have been told of the
pungent grasses endemic to the Lakeshore area. Rumor has it they’re kept there to help keep away mosquitoes. But exterminators and other mosquito treatment services will do the same. Only without, you know, the horrible stench.
Maybe then they’ll wish they had chipped in a few dollars to expedite the process.
Bascom ski lift Admittedly, this one would be a little tough to get approved. But who wouldn’t love to plop down onto the seat and get escorted up the hill, watching the beautiful Madison landscape as you take the 20 second ride to the top? Tell me that wouldn’t be a great use of money. Sebastian van Bastelaer is a freshman studying environmental studies and political science.

Wisconsin grabs first place in B1G standings By Irene Burski The Daily Cardinal
Coming off of a thrilling 3-2 comeback win against Michigan Thursday night, the Badgers squared off against Michigan State on a crisp Sunday afternoon, prevailing 1-0 in what was often a gridlocked match. Their win today cemented what has been a climb to the top of the Big Ten standings for Wisconsin, who now leads the conference with seven wins and 22 points. Going into halftime, the game was scoreless, despite the Badgers (7-1-1 Big Ten, 10-4-3 overall) clocking in eight shots to the Spartans’ (3-3-2, 7-4-4) one shot. “I thought we had possession on them, especially in the final third, but I told them that doesn’t win soccer games,” UW head coach Paula Wilkins said. “Michigan State does a great job … it was going to [take] something special to break them down.” During halftime, Wilkins made the decision to tell the team that powerhouse Penn State (6-2-1, 11-3-2) had lost to Rutgers, meaning if the Badgers went on
to beat the Spartans, they would take sole possession of first place in the current standings. “I think I spent more time deciding that than I actually did on the tactical decisions we were going to do,” Wilkins said. “I thought that this team was a mature enough team … their faces lit up, and I think they saw it as something to go get rather than something to lose.” A physical and gritty Spartan defense thwarted the majority of the Badgers’ offensive attempts. The intensity between the opposing sides was high, with 10 fouls called on Michigan State and eight fouls called on Wisconsin. “It makes the game more exciting to be a part of,” junior midfielder Rose Lavelle said. “I feel like there’s more at stake.” A series of five corner kicks in the second half and multiple long throw-ins for Wisconsin pressed the Michigan State keeper Gabrielle Gauruder and defenders, with one shot going just over the crossbar. The Badgers had a total of 19 shots over the course of the game. Finally, in the 83rd minute,
senior midfielder McKenna Meuer flicked the ball off of a long-throw in from Micaela Powers into the box. Lavelle, unmarked, headed the ball into the back of the net. Lavelle’s goal ended Michigan State’s impressive 239-minute shutout streak. The Spartans were unable to retaliate in the remaining time. A Spartan forward going for the ball even barreled into sophomore goalkeeper Caitlyn Clem in the final minutes in a last effort to score, resulting in an ugly collision for both players. However, Clem stayed in and went on to finish out the match. Before the match, the team also celebrated the accomplishments of the seniors in a Senior Day tribute. Meuer, along with defenders Brianna Stelzer and Molly Laufenberg, as well as midfielder Kinley McNicoll and forwards Marisa Kresge and Nikki Greenhalgh, will be graduating. The Badgers will take on the Maryland Terrapins on the road next Saturday, Oct. 24 at 6 p.m. UWBadgers.com contributed to this report.

in a single game. “Our penalty kill has been successful, not only defending the other team from getting a chance to score but offensively it opened up the game today,” UW head coach Mark Johnson said. “Sarah Nurse scored two short-handed goals in a real short period of time, so any time you’re able to do that it certainly bodes well for us and certainly puts the other team a little bit on their heels in regards to the momentum of the game.” Junior goaltender Ann-Renée Desbiens only had to stop the puck 10 times in her 20th shutout as a Badger Friday night, which puts her third in program history and tied 13th all-time in NCAA history for career shutouts. “It’s nice that Ann-Renée has been able to finish the last couple of games,” Johnson said. “Although she didn’t get tested a lot, she was still able to focus in for that 60 minutes and walk away with a shutout.” Saturday night was a different type of match entirely between the two conference foes, with the Huskies giving the Badgers their toughest test of the season.

No. 2 Wisconsin (4-0 WCHA, 6-0 overall) concluded another sweep this weekend over struggling WCHA opponent St. Cloud State (0-4, 2-4) to remain undefeated. The Badgers again showed dominance both on the offensive and defensive end of the ice, outscoring St. Cloud State 5-0 Friday night and 2-0 Saturday afternoon. This season the Badgers have now outscored their opponents 35-2, including an impressive 22-0 differential in conference play. Friday night was another Badger blowout, as most were expecting, when the Wisconsin women stormed through the Huskies in periods two and three after a scoreless first. Sophomore defenseman Lauren Williams got the Badger offense going when she scored her first goal of the season six minutes into the second frame, but the biggest moment came when junior forward Sarah Nurse linked together two back-toback to shorthanded goals, becoming only the fourth Badger ever to score multiple shorthanded goals

The Wisconsin Badgers are off to a 6-0-0 start to the season and have yet to surrender a goal in conference play through four games.
a repeat performance of Friday’s contest with another scoreless first period, the Badgers lit the lamp two minutes into the second when senior forward Erika Sowchuk found the back of the net for the first time this year off a dish from team captain and senior defenseman Courtney Burke. “It was a tight game. St. Cloud did a great job of defending the scoring area,” Johnson said. “If you look at the whole game, we had the puck most of it and tried to create some scoring opportunities. They blocked I don’t know how many shots, but they blocked quite a few and the goaltender played well. The one thing about our game, probably the hardest thing to do is to score goals and Sowchuk got a nice goal in the middle part of the second period to give up a 1-0 lead.” The UW offense slowed down a touch in the second game away series this weekend, but continued to keep its opponents out of the defensive zone and, most importantly, out of the net. Senior goaltender Megan Miller, a Boston College transfer, posted Wisconsin’s fourth consecutive shutout and her first shutout as a Badger. “It was a great performance by Megan,” Johnson said. “You’re looking for opportunities to play people and it’s certainly what we looked at today in giving Megan a chance. It was a tight game and I’m happy for her, it certainly builds her confidence as we go through the rest of the season.” UWBadgers.com contributed to this report.

Stave, Wisconsin bowl past Boilermakers By Andrew Tucker The Daily Cardinal
Many of the Badger faithful expected Wisconsin (2-1 Big Ten, 5-2 overall) to roll over a weak Purdue team (0-3, 1-6). While it wasn’t as lopsided as expected in the beginning, UW defeated the Boilermakers by a respectable 24-7 score. The game started slow, which was a surprise to many considering Purdue’s lackluster recent Big Ten history, winning only one conference game the past two seasons. The Boilermakers have shown flashes of greatness this year, only losing by three to highly touted Michigan State, and playing strong in the first half against UW. On the first drive of the game, Wisconsin marched down the field in chunks both through the air and on the ground. Despite junior running back Dare Ogunbowale leading the squad down the field, redshirt freshman running back Alec Ingold punched it in for a 4-yard score, giving the Badgers a 7-0 lead. Ingold switched over from defense a few weeks ago, but has made his presence known by rushing for 93 yards and three touchdowns in the last four weeks. He has certainly earned his spot in the injury-depleted backfield. “I gotta make the most of them with everybody coming back healthy in a couple weeks ... [they] might not be coming as often,” Ingold said. A few drives later, the Badgers were facing a third-and-long in the red zone when senior quarterback Joel Stave overthrew a wide open
receiver, and his pass was intercepted by Purdue’s junior safety Leroy Clark, who took the ball to the opposite 29-yard line. Purdue then rushed it way into the end zone for a 7-7 tie. Kicker Rafael Gaglianone’s sophomore slump continued in the first half, as he made a 28-yard kick to put the Badgers up 10-7, but his missed 35-yarder with four seconds left soured what was an otherwise impressive two-minute drill by Wisconsin. Gaglianone is now 9-of-15 on the season, compared to last year’s solid 19-of-22. Today’s miss was due to a defensive tip after the kick, which is a potentially demoralizing situation, but Gaglianone kept it in perspective. “I feel like I became a better kicker than I was last year, but sometimes it just doesn’t show up,” Gaglianone said. “If somebody jumps the gap or what not, we can’t control that, we just got to focus on the next one.” After both teams stalled on drive after drive in the third, UW faced a critical moment. Following a poor punt by Purdue, the Badgers started on the Boilermaker 33. A few passes later, they found themselves four yards from the end zone, and Ogunbowale carried multiple defenders into the end zone as he powered his way to a 17-7 Wisconsin lead as the third quarter expired. The run game was only moderately successful, with the pass game shouldering the majority of the burden, but all of the Badgers’ touchdowns were on the ground. “We took what they gave us.
They definitely made it a point to try to stop the run with the amount of people in the box, so that made it tough for our O-line and tight ends,” Ogunbowale said. The score broke the stall that had lasted since early in the second quarter, and the Badgers used the momentum to march down the field and score again on their next drive. Wisconsin faced a fourthand-goal from the 1-yard line, and took the risk of going for it to essentially end the game. Ingold looked like he was stopped short, but moved around, found a hole and plunged into the end zone to make the score 24-7, which would end up being the final score. Another week, another standout defensive performance by the Badgers, allowing only one score to their opponents and stuffing the stat sheet as well, but the usual suspects weren’t the ones dominating. This week redshirt freshman linebacker TJ Edwards led the way with 16 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and a forced fumble. Despite the statistical dominance, head coach Paul Chryst says the squad doesn’t focus on the postgame stat sheet. “Whoever gets that stat, so be it … Those numbers are real, but this defense, the reason it’s playing well is these guys don’t care about the numbers, they care about playing together and being a part of a good defense, and I think that starts with the leadership,” Chryst said. Next Saturday, Wisconsin will travel to Urbana-Champaign to take on the Illinois Fighting Illini (1-1, 4-2) in a 2:30 p.m. tilt.

Badgers drop second straight to Minnesota By Sam Karp The Daily Cardinal
After falling to Minnesota at home last week, the Badgers had a chance to return the favor over the weekend. But it was not to be for No. 15 Wisconsin (4-4 Big Ten, 12-6 overall) who fell to No. 11 Minnesota (7-1, 15-3) 20-25, 23-25, 25-19, 19-25 in Minneapolis Saturday afternoon. Both teams were extremely competitive in their offensive performances. Wisconsin hit .233 percent as a team with 58 kills and 18 errors, while Minnesota hit .235 as a team with 61 kills and 21 errors. Sophomore outside hitter Lauryn Gillis led the Badgers with a career-high 20 kills followed by freshman middle blocker Tionna Williams and redshirt junior outside hitter Romana Kriskova with 12 and 10 kills, respectively. On the defensive side, both teams battled hard with Wisconsin blocking 11 of Minnesota’s shots and the Gophers blocking 7.5 of Wisconsin’s. Williams led all UW players with six blocks, followed by junior middle blocker Haleigh Nelson, who recorded five. Senior libero Taylor Morey led Wisconsin with 25 digs, closely followed by junior setter Lauren Carlini with 21. Wisconsin and Minnesota battled back and forth in the first set with the team’s trading points in the beginning. Unfortunately for UW, with the game tied at seven, three straight Minnesota
points kept the Badgers away for the rest of the set to help the Gophers draw first blood. Wisconsin came out strong in the second set jumping out to a 10-6 lead highlighted by five different players recording kills. However, Minnesota refused to go away, with junior outside hitter Sarah Wilhite recording three kills and a block to give Minnesota the 12-11 lead. The Badgers were able to regain the lead in the set at 19-18 but the Gophers were able to close out the set from there. With Minnesota leading 24-21, the Gophers closed out the set with a kill to go up 2-0 in sets. Again in the third set, Wisconsin came out fast going on a 5-0 run. Minnesota was able to cut UW’s lead down to two at 12-10, but the Badgers pulled away to secure an easy 25-19 set victory. In the fourth and final set, Minnesota came out smelling blood. After a 6-0 run in the beginning of the set, the Badgers were down 12-5. Even after Wisconsin went on a short run of its own, the Gophers would not let the Badgers back into the game. Wisconsin got within four points but Minnesota didn’t let the Badgers get any closer, closing out the set 25-19 to win the match. Up for next for Wisconsin is back-to-back road matchups with Iowa and Nebraska on Oct. 23 and 24, before returning home against Purdue on Halloween weekend.
