STUDENT PROFILE
UW sophomore works to fight colon cancer
By Leah Leonidas THE DAILY CARDINAL
Inspiring others to pursue their goals, whatever they may be, is the overarching goal of Keven Stonewall, a 19-year-old UW-Madison sophomore who has made incredible breakthroughs in colon cancer research. “I think a big thing I like to
show, and what I’ve been trying to show, is if you have a passion for something just go all in with it,” Stonewall said. “You never know where it’ll take you.” Following his own passions and using a type of treatment known as cancer immunotherapy, Stonewall created a vaccine to enhance T cells in the immune
system that naturally fight cancer. He began researching cancer and developing his vaccine during a summer internship at the Rush University Medical Center after his junior year of high school. Stonewall said his love for science sparked in fifth grade when

Freakfest crowd reported as chilled and chilled out The vast majority of the 35,000 people attending Freakfest on State Street Saturday were “wellbehaved” and there were no significant injuries or property damage, Madison Police Department spokesperson Joel DeSpain said in a report. UW-Madison senior Michelle Turner agreed and said the crowd was more cold than rowdy. “There were a lot of people, but not so many people were dancing,” Turner said. “My sophomore year, the DJ played more dancing music, but this year, the
Mowgli’s did more sing-along, which is still fun, but not for hardcore dancing.” Turner attended Freakfest both her freshman and sophomore years, which she described as different experiences. “Freshman year was really fun, but probably because I was a freshman and there was nothing else to do,” Turner said. “This year it was cold, and I would rather just go to a bar.” She also said the police pres-

Beginning in Fall 2015, Ogg Residence Hall will only allow upperclassmen residents, as well as provide an additional career resource service, according to University Housing officials. Career Kickstart is an optional career-focused residential life program intended to help direct students with respect to majors and careers. The residence hall intends to have a full-time staff member that would coordinate activities with L&S Career Services in attempt to provide extra access to workshops, seminars and dinners for networking, along with extra interview practice. “By making Ogg an upperclassmen second year experience, it gives
returning students a place that they can be living amongst all upperclassmen, that they can have that second year experience in one of our newer, more popular locations,” University Housing Spokesperson Brendon Dybdahl said. The career resource program is entirely optional and boasts special discussion sections of LS210, a course open to all university students focused on career planning. The plans for the program and changes to Ogg Hall have been in the works since last spring, but didn’t come to fruition until the summer as details began to form, Dybdahl

“L
OLOLOL.” That’s what my good friend Yeezy would say if he knew I’d never covered this topic at length before. There’s a great penis pun there somewhere. Today, we’re making a list. That’s right. No elongated messages about loving ourselves for who we are or the way each person is entitled to liking exactly what they like. Nuh-uh. Today is just a little sampling of some of the many components of BDSM, of course in alphabetical order. BDSM is a triacronym meaning bondage and discipline, domination and submission, sadism and masochism. It is used colloquially as an umbrella term for “kinky” activity. It is important to keep in mind that what might be “kinky” for some is completely “vanilla” for others. For people interested in the kink community, websites like Fetlife.com and SatyriconMadison.com can be really helpful. Look into those and let me know what you find! Some terms may seem more familiar than others. Lesser known activities will get a blurb. Any questions or clarifications should be sent to sex@dailycardinal.com. Now, learn! A: Anal Beads! Ass play! B: Bondage! Blood Play! Blood play (self-explanatory) should be handled with extreme caution and only after a significant amount of research and communication. C: Cosplay! Consent! Cupping! Cupping is this thing where glass cups are lit on fire and pressed against the skin of our partner. Be very careful, Cinderelly! Although the sounds and feelings of the suction created by the extreme heat can be sexy af, this activity is not for amateurs. D: Drowning! Discipline! E: Eating shit! Literally. It’s called skat. Cool! Edging!
Edging is a super cool technique we can use on our partners and/or ourselves. In edging, a person is brought to the very “edge” of orgasm but doesn’t actually come. This process can be repeated over and over until the person is finally allowed to climax, resulting in a most powerful orgasm indeed. F: Femdom! Fisting! G: Gangbang! H: Humiliation! I: Intermammary Intercourse! Titty fucking. Not necessarily too BDSM-related, but it’s alliteration! My favorite! Besides, pushing together one’s boobies to be thrust into by a phallus can be as submissive or dominating as we want (just like everything else to do with sex. Yay!). J: Just… K: …Kinking! Kink is a nearly-all-encompassing term for a sexual preference that transcends heterosexual missionary position sexual intercourse. Kinks range from a love of nipple play to pleasure from biting to foot fetishes and beyond. Some people classify themselves as “kinky,” which means whatever it means to them but can be interpreted as someone who has more than one sexual preference considered “off the beaten (ha!) path” of sexuality. Kinkiness is a spectrum, which means that what’s kinky for some is commonplace for others. L: Lactation! Lap dance! Leather! Licking! M: Master/Slave! Masculinity! N: Nipple Clamps! Nose plugs! O: Orgasm Denial! P: Pegging! Pegging is when a chick bangs a dude’s asshole. Pretty fucking sweet, eh? Q: Question Master! Wait… that’s not right. But “queening!” That works! R: R.A.C.K.! An acronym meaning “Risk

Aware Consensual Kink,” which allows parties to communicate and understand each of their boundaries without fear of judgment and ridicule. S: Spanking! Submission! Safe word! Safe words are completely necessary and a big part of consent. They allow us to communicate when we have reached our limit in sexual play. Safe words should be words that are not related to the activities we’re participating in and should be easy to say. “Banana” and “jellyfish” are both great options. T: Throat Fucking! Like I always say, blowjobs are bittersweet. Bitter, because of the way it tastes. Sweet because we know we did a good job. Is that relevant? Throat fucking is when a phallused partner, with a penis, strap-on or even a cucumber in hand, uses another person’s mouth the same way they would use a vagina or asshole. The “mouth” is usually forced to stay still by the “phallus’s” hands while the latter thrusts in and out of the “mouth’s” mouth. Throat fucking sometimes involves breath play—where the dominating partner holds the nose or throat of the submissive partner while fucking their
throat—gagging, tearing up and fun noises often ensue. U: Underwater! V: Vulva Torture! W: Water Sports! Water sports involve a dominating partner peeing on a submissive partner. Sometimes the submissive partner drinks it all up. Awesome show, great job! X: X-Ray! Read Tucker Max, mkay? Y: “Yes, Master.” –Gollum Z: Zap! Electricity play requires special tools that fall under the umbrella term of “erotic electrostiumlation.” They have their own Wikipedia article under the same name. Electrostimulation tools send small shocks that stimulate skin. They can be transferred through the tools themselves or other metal objects. Oftentimes used on the genitals for hypersensitivity. Bzzzzzzzzz. This is not a comprehensive list. Many of these activities and acronyms are nuanced, we shouldn’t engage in anything we aren’t comfortable with, communication is key, all the usual suspects. Please play safely.

State agency predicts voter turnout on par with Recall By Jane Roberts THE DAILY CARDINAL
EMILY BUCK/THE DAILY CARDINAL
UW sophomore Keven Stonewall began work on a vaccine to combat colon cancer following his junior year of high school.
cancer from page 1 his class began using microscopes. Since then, he jumped at every science-related opportunity he could. “My whole principle is that you don’t build a whole wall in one day, you do it one brick at a time,” he said. “If I don’t cure cancer, as long as I inspire somebody and set up a stepping stone I’m satisfied with that.” Stonewall said UW-Madison has fostered his scientific abilities due to the large emphasis it puts on research. Dr. Christian Capitini, who works in the UW School of Medicine and Public Health, has been Stonewall’s most prominent advisor and a source of guidance at UW.
ogg from page 1 said. In the spring, University Housing received feedback suggesting that returning residents would prefer more career and work-related programming leading to the formation of Career Kickstart. Ogg’s transition is unique
On his way to work at the Wisconsin Institute for Medical Research, Stonewall said he always stops to chat with Capitini, who has helped him navigate the transition from high school biology to graduatelevel research, both in terms of explaining scientific jargon and advising him on coursework. As a young researcher, Stonewall is a firm believer in the idea that motivation isn’t determined by one’s age. “Age isn’t anything but a number,” he said. “We can all fight cancer. You could be a Ph.D. researcher, an undergraduate art major or even a curious fifth grader as I was. It doesn’t matter, it’s about the passion and the drive to win this fight.” with the new career resource, as well as the student year make up. “Career Kickstart is not exactly a learning community, there are some similarities, but there is no program fee for Ogg residents to participate in it,” Dybdahl said. “It’s just an additional value resource for students.” —Jen Wagman
University report finds STEM-related degrees increasing at UW-Madison Science, technology, engineering and math disciplines at UW-Madison have grown in enrollment and number of degrees since 2000, according to a June report conducted by the university. The report, prepared by the Office of Academic Planning and Institutional Research, displays that degrees in STEM fields increased from 35 percent to 40 percent of all undergraduate degrees from 2000 to 2013. In addition, comparing the 2000-’01 school year to 2013-’14, enrollment in STEM majors between juniors and seniors has grown from 32 to 41 percent. There is no definite explanation for the increased interest in STEM areas, however employment opportunities are dominant reasons, Steven Cramer, vice provost for teaching and learning and professor of civil engineering, said in a university release.
“The rapid increase in STEM majors can be traced to students’ desires to ensure a professionally rewarding career path upon graduation and to choose career paths that address some of our most pressing global challenges, including adequate energy, food, water, urban infrastructure and health care for our world’s societies,” Cramer said in the statement. UW-Madison has also grown in STEM attendance among targeted minorities by 8 percent, first-generation college students by 13 percent, women by 10 percent and Chancellor’s Scholars by 12 percent between 2004 and 2013. Cramer also said in the release that UW-Madison “is at the forefront in providing high-quality programs in these areas, and employment opportunities for our students graduating from these programs are high.” —Charolette Laracy
Wisconsin election officials are projecting voter turnout for Tuesday’s election to be similar to that of the 2012 recall election, according to Government Accountability Board spokesperson Michael Haas. “We’re projecting about 57 percent turnout, which is about two-and-a-half million voters,” Haas said Thursday. “The 57 percent [is based on] an estimated voting age population, which is a figure from the U.S. Census Bureau.” The GAB’s prediction is based on absentee ballot data, including early votes in clerk’s offices and those submitted by mail or other methods. According to data released Wednesday, more than 205,000 absentee ballots had been cast and 25,000 had not
yet been returned. GAB Director and General Counsel Kevin J. Kennedy cautioned in a release, “these are partial numbers.” “Out of Wisconsin’s 1,852 municipal clerks, about 360 use the Statewide Voter Registration System (SVRS) to track absentee ballots,” Kennedy said in a press release Thursday. “However, those are the state’s larger municipalities, which cover 69 percent of Wisconsin’s voters.” Kennedy said making a direct comparison between years proves difficult because of election laws moving the primary election date and differences in the time period for in-person absentee voting in clerks’ offices. “We are often asked how these numbers compare to previous elections,” Kennedy said in the release. “Unfortunately,
there are no easy answers.” Early voting has long been an important option for UW-Madison students, who may not have time to vote on Election Day. Both the College Democrats and College Republicans held early voting rallies during the past few weeks to raise support for their candidates and get students to the polls. While the College Democrats has held such rallies in the past, this year was a first for the College Republicans. “The Democrats are really good at getting students out to early vote,” said College Republicans Chairman Charlie Hoffmann. “We took a page out of their playbook and actually we did it better than they did.” Both groups said they will continue their outreach efforts in the days leading up to the election.
UW students protest for workers’ rights Members of the Student Labor Action Coalition gathered on Bascom Hill Friday for a “diein” to protest UW-Madison’s affiliation with JanSport. The protesters lay on the ground for 15 minutes, one minute for every 100 workers killed in garment factories in recent years. Meanwhile, a member of the Teacher Assistants’ Association read some of the 1,500 names of garment workers who were killed as a result of unsafe building conditions in Bangladesh. The event honored dead garment workers and its attendees demanded that Chancellor Rebecca Blank cut UW-Madison’s apparel contract
with JanSport so as to comply with the Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh. The accord requires any UW apparel licensees to regularly inspect factory conditions and ensure worker safety. While JanSport does not have factories in Bangladesh, its parent organization VF Corporation does have subsidiaries producing in Bangladesh and has not signed the agreement. “Because JanSport is owned by VF, the University of Wisconsin giving JanSport money gives that money eventually to VF,” SLAC member Melanie Meyer said. “The university is saying that because
JanSport doesn’t directly produce out of Bangladesh, they’re not willing to cut the contract.” Fifteen other universities have cut their contract with JanSport, according to fliers distributed at the event. Friday’s protest was not the first time SLAC has organized to call on Blank to cut the university’s contract with JanSport, and the group maintains the urgency of the situation. “No more innocent blood can be spilled for the sake of UW-Madison apparel,” Charity Schmidt, a member of the Teacher’s Assistant, said in a speech during the demonstration. —Annie Schoenfeldt

“I think this was my last year. Even if I lived in Madison next year, I probably wouldn’t go,” Turner said. “It seems more like a college tradition. It was fun while I was in college, but I think, from here on, I’d rather not be cold outside.” —Dana Kampa

Snapchat account shows student life at UW CAMERON GRAFF Graphics Editor
A
t first glance, the underground world of uwmadison_snaps is a surreal experience. For those not familiar, the account operates on the popular social media platform Snapchat, a venue for sharing photos with friends or, on occasion, teeming hordes of anonymous followers. The photos are either (effectively) erased after one view or, if they’re uploaded as a “story,” all your followers can view them for the duration of 24 hours. Needless to say, the app quickly became a sex thing. Well, not so much an exclusive and de facto sex thing as a general means of unpunishable debauchery. After all, plenty goes on daily in an individual’s life that society at large, hypocritical or not, would wag a foreboding finger at—when given the option, why not share your Dionysian side with the people who won’t judge you? uwmadison_snaps, much like @ UWConfessions (though hopefully not too much like @UWConfessions), takes the idea of collegiate anonymity and encourages it through the lens of the temporality Snapchat promises. People can take snapchats, either photo or video, and send them to the individual running the account who then selects their personal favorites and uploads them to the account for, presumably, some several thousand people to gawk over. What you get depends on when you view the account’s amassed story. Just like on campus itself, a strange dichotomy exists between the endless wasteland of weekdays and the brief but caustic flash of the weekends. Last week Monday, for instance, I woke up to snaps of a similar experience:
people getting ready for class, moaning about Mondays, watching the sun rise over Mendota and even insisting that people submit pictures of animals to brighten the mood of the community at large. And lo and behold, the community responded. Tens, if not over hundreds, of different pictures of puppies, potbellied pigs, hedgehogs, snakes and the like almost immediately began to flow through the account. It was heartwarming for obvious reasons, but also because it made me feel as though a bodiless voice shouted into the abyss and all of Madison rose to respond. It felt like an actual community, interconnected in a more visceral way than something like Facebook or Twitter could ever muster. The weekends however are a completely different animal. I was introduced to uwmadison_snaps this past Friday night and was initially appalled at what I saw: copious amounts of drug possession and consumption, lewd jokes, intense drinking, a startling number of nude (and mostly female) selfies and a general display of depravity unseen in channels of interaction. My initial reaction wasn’t necessarily one of moral judgement—that’s a different question entirely—but rather one of genuine shock. Of course these are things we know are going on around campus: kids smoke weed, kids drink, kids have sex, women are naked under their clothes and so on. But they’re things we don’t ever talk about. They’re things that American society, Puritan roots and all, have suggested are best swept under the rug rather than addressed. Then when I saw all those darling pictures of dogs (as well as people studying, watching TV, joking with their friends, and,
yes, still a fair amount of drinking, smoking and getting incredibly naked), it all sort of clicked for me. I find uwmadison_snaps fascinating exactly for what it is—a view of the campus that approaches some new level of relatively unbiased representation. Of course, there are limiters in place; submissions are resigned to people who are financially capable of owning smartphones as well as people invested in the six seconds of fame promised by submission and there’s also clearly some degree of male gaze presiding over the whole affair, as evidenced from the copious female nudes and the (relative) lack of male nudes. Even with these in place though, uwmadison_snaps achieves something incredible—it shows the campus not as we want to be seen by shaming eyes but, with photographic proof, as we actually sometimes are. This is wonderful for several reasons, most of all witnessing a sense of real communal empathy online. This is something we have yet to truly experience from an Internet experience due to the pesky immortality of Facebook photos and Twitter posts and the risk of ever-prying eyes. At the same time, it also provides an intriguing look into the psychology of today’s youth. Why are all of us so willing to document things we know employers, parents, police, judges and the government could find reprehensible and broadcast to the world at large? Snapchat may be unique in its ephemerality, but it isn’t perfect—anyone with Snapchat themselves can follow the account, see the photos and videos and record them for future incriminating evidence. So what is it? Do we trust a community because it has UW-Madison in its name? Do we have so much blind faith in a fellow
Badger to not abuse the streams of photos they receive on a Saturday night? Do we believe in the promise of Snapchat anonymity or have we even become so indoctrinated in technology-incited permanence to just not care anymore? Or are we all just too young and dumb to care? Given this, there’s certainly a degree of ethical considerations that are perhaps going unnoticed amidst all the revelry. Most of all, the campus-wide broadcast of compromising photos sent in by third parties, held in the hands of a presumably apathetic individual. So you take a picture of your friend passed out naked and send it to uwmadison_snaps and suddenly it’s broadcast to all of campus—what then? Is it a violation of privacy? Does the individual behind the account have the right to post pictures of these individuals without their given consent? Minor optimist I am, I still hope this potential for abuse will eventually be addressed either systemically or by the moderator, but until then I suggest we all be wary of the possible ethical transgressions when submitting content. Whatever the case, uwmadison_snaps serves as an incredible new front on youth rebellion, an astonishing and hopefully repercussion-free release of what it means for a lot of people to be a student on campus. It’s not exciting necessarily for its content, but by the drive and catharsis behind it. Problematic or not, there’s something beautiful at the roots of this whole mess, and hopefully something equally beautiful will eventually bloom from it.

From national to local, hip-hop to indie rock, State Street played host to a variety of musical acts this Halloween. Capitol Stage By Jake Witz THE DAILY CARDINAL
While many costumed concert-goers enjoyed side stages like the WSUM Stage and Gilman Stage, the crown jewel of Freakfest was the Capitol Stage. This year it was pure hip-hop, which the audience gladly received. The first performer was Coby Ashpis, a local beats producer. He has a popular YouTube series titled “Beats Around Madison,” where he plays his Maschine sample pad in different areas around Madison. While he usually plays around scenic areas of Lake Mendota, he found himself at the hub of the city playing to an eager crowd, also enlisting the talent of local MC Lord of the Fly. Up next was a Wisconsin rapper with an East Coast flow named Charles Grant. The MC from Westfield, WI had the crowd throwing up their heads and bobbing up and down as he performed. Local MC CRASHprez joined him on stage and later threw himself into the crowd, surfing off of the heavy bass of a trap-styled song. At this point the crowd was expanding exponentially as people flocked to see the headliners. WebsterX was up next and he killed his set. The highlight was without a doubt “Desperate Youth,” his hit song that came out exactly a year ago. The energy that he and his crew brought on that song was representative of how far they’ve come since its release. deM atlaS, Prof and
Atmosphere have been touring as a trio for some time now and have definitely mastered working the crowd. deM atlaS hit the stage first, setting the crowd up for nonstop boom boom clap hip-hop. Prof followed with his goofy lyrics and tight flow. Both artists had an audience swelling to enormous proportions for the final act of the night. In-house DJ and producer Ant warmed up the crowd with a beat intended to get all hands in the air. As Slug ran on stage, Freakfest reached its peak level of wildness. They proceeded with a classic-heavy set, standard for a festival performance. The duo knew people were there to party and gladly aided in making the crowd go as crazy as possible. Because of Slug’s great stage presence, the crowd was an in-motion partying clump with numerous people getting knocked over and squished by the collective mob. The three-song encore was an impressive part of the performance. Slug freestyled with expertise and even brought on deM atlaS to improvise some rhymes. The freestyle was sandwiched between two classic Atmosphere songs, which together signaled the end of Freakfest. Those that stayed at the Capitol Stage the entire night might have overdosed on high-energy party hiphop, but the vibes were fantastic and the various MCs, DJs and producers brought forth their best to guarantee a fantastic night.

Gilman Stage By Owen Desai THE DAILY CARDINAL
After hearing so much hype around Halloween in Madison, my anticipation for Freakfest was through the roof. Prior to Saturday, I had the opportunity to interview James Shelley from American Authors. He was very genuine and willing to talk, making for an enjoyable conversation and adding to my anticipation. “My favorite part about performing is definitely the energy from the people. You feel the energy from the crowd, people are screaming, it’s really amazing,” Shelley said. As we made our way to the Gilman Stage, alt-rock act The Mowgli’s, currently on tour with American Authors, had just begun performing. “It’s awesome. I love those guys. They’re a big group of hippies and I love it. They’re super positive and, you know, like to get a little crazy and have a good time,” Shelley said. “We’ve been
a band for 8 years and when we recently started touring again, The Mowgli’s took us out on one of our first tours. That was over a year and a half ago, so it’s really cool that when we go on tour we have just a big family vibe.” The Mowgli’s were remarkable, energizing the crowd with their light and lovely voices throughout their time on stage. All of the band members were dressed in costumes and made everyone in the audience feel at ease and eager to sing along. American Authors followed The Mowgli’s, beginning their set at midnight. Transitioning between well-known songs, oldies, and guitar solos, American Authors magnificently captured our attention. “Everyone has songs that they love, ones that are more personal to them than others, but we all agree that one of our favorite songs to perform, truthfully, is ‘Best Day of My Life’ because we really wouldn’t be here without
that song. Whenever we play it, the whole crowd starts singing,” he said. “I wrote this song in a tiny, little apartment in Brooklyn when I had no job and I was poor and had nothing, and the fact that it has affected this many people is incredible.” “You make art and you do these things because you want to be heard and that’s the hardest part about being an artist: having people relate to your art,” Shelley added. When their current tour is done in November, the band has plans to go back to Europe, do some Christmas shows, but then definitely jump back into the studio. “We’re trying to get back. We’re always writing while we’re on the road. We want to begin recording more songs,” Shelley stated. American Authors were fantastic and I am happy I had the chance to see them perform live. I am sure we’ll be hearing more hits from them soon.
WSUM Stage By Abbie Ruckdashel THE DAILY CARDINAL
EMILY BUCK/THE DAILY CARDINAL
American Authors frontman James Shelley brings an alternative rock vibe to the Gilman Stage Saturday.
On the WSUM Stage, Dense City, Midas Bison, Sky Urchin, Catch Kid and Eagle Trace showed the freaks just what they had to offer. These acts ranged from smooth electronic dance music sets to one-man hip-hop/ pop percussion shows to killer alternative rock. The opening act was Dense City, pronounced “density.” They took over the stage and helped warm up the crowd with some EDM beats. Dudley Noon, their guitarist, layered funky riffs over the top to add to the dance party. People passing by even got into a dancing mood. The next act was Midas Bison, the stage name of Sidney Johnson. Bison performed a mixture of pop/hip-hop originals, adding drum fills overtop of his beats. The show attracted a lot of attention and was theatrical and full of energy. His song “Drugs”
was especially infectious. Sky Urchin, formally known as Sky Road Fly, was next in the lineup. They’re an alternative rock trio with funky guitar riffs, big choruses and crazy guitar solos. I had a great time rocking out and head banging with the rest of the crowd. Everything was very intricate and fit together well, making their show musically profound and entertaining. The penultimate act was a Madison-based trio called Catch Kid. Their light-up costumes gave the crowd a thrill and added to their alternative rock vibe. The vocals were smooth and original, with melodies reminiscent of U2. The guitar riffs rocked, but didn’t rip your face off, which helped add to their chill melodic sound. Their percussionist put down beats that made tapping your foot irresistible. All of their songs sounded different, which was a refreshing and unique experience.
The final act was a Milwaukeebased group called Eagle Trace. They are made up of four brothers Mitch, Max, Cass and Jackson Borgardt, along with Broderick Coning. Their sound is definitely infectious. It was hard-hitting and attracted the biggest crowd the stage had seen that night. Lead singer Mitch Borgardt’s vocals seemed to just roll off his tongue in a way that held the audience’s attention. I found myself moving without consciously knowing it. They have been hailed as one of the most anticipated bands coming from the Midwest and I have to agree. I was excited to see what the WSUM Stage had to offer and it did not disappoint. Madison and the surrounding areas have so much to offer. Although the crowds were not the biggest, they were full of dedicated fans who really enjoyed what they were hearing, making the low-key atmosphere fun and entertaining.

UW takes series against UND By Zach Rastall the daily cardinal
Despite missing several of their top players this weekend, the No. 2/3 Badgers earned a win and a tie on the road against a Top 10 opponent. The Badgers (7-2-1-0 WCHA, 9-2-1 overall) were without forwards Blayre Turnbull, a senior, and Emily Clark, a freshman, in the series against North Dakota as the two prepared for the annual 4 Nations Cup between the United States, Canada, Sweden and Finland, taking place this week. Freshman forward Annie Pankowski also missed Saturday’s game for 4 Nations Cup practice, and senior forward Karley Sylvester was unavailable for most of the weekend after leaving Friday night’s game in the first period with an undisclosed injury. Despite these absences, Wisconsin still took four of a possible six points from No. 10 North Dakota (3-4-1-1, 4-5-1). UND appeared to be on its way to a victory Friday night after junior forward Becca Kohler scored early in the third period to give her team a 3-2 lead. Kohler’s goal gave North
Dakota its first lead of the night after the Badgers scored the first two goals of the game. However, with sophomore goaltender Ann-Renée Desbiens pulled out of the UW net, redshirt senior forward Brittany Ammerman lit the lamp to tie the game with 39.3 seconds remaining in regulation. Neither team scored in overtime, and UND won 1-0 in a shootout to secure the extra point in the WCHA standings. Though the Badgers didn’t get the win, despite outshooting North Dakota 40-21, head coach Mark Johnson was still pleased with his team’s overall performance. “We played very well tonight. We had a lot of grade-A quality scoring opportunities the entire game,” Johnson said. “Their goalie played well. We were down 3-2 and it’s late in the game and we’re able to pull our goalie and get the equalizer.” UND jumped out to a 1-0 lead Saturday when junior forward Leah Jensen found the back of the net with 10:39 to go in the second period. Wisconsin responded by scor-
ing the next three goals of the game, courtesy of Ammerman, junior defenseman Courtney Burke and sophomore forward Sarah Nurse. With her two goals in the series, Ammerman is now tied for fourth in the country with eight goals on the year. Junior forward Meghan Dufault scored with 38 seconds left in the third period to cut the UND deficit to one, but the Badgers held on to pick up the win. Wisconsin will have next weekend off, before welcoming Minnesota State to LaBahn Arena for games Thursday and Friday the following week, when the Badgers will be at full strength again. “With the situation at hand, other kids got opportunities. They made the most of it and played well,” Johnson said. “Collectively it was a very good effort without some of our key players, but again you give kids opportunities and they make the most of it, certainly bodes well for the next couple weeks to continue to build.” UWBadgers.com contributed to this report.

Badgers send off seniors with shocking tie of No. 2 Indiana at McClimon By Thomas Valtin-Erwin the daily cardinal
Wisconsin has played best at home all season, and on an emotional Senior Night at the McClimon Complex, they didn’t disappoint, registering a tie against an elite opponent. The night started with the recognition of seniors Jacob Brindle and David Caban, both four-year players for the Badgers. After the ceremony, Wisconsin kicked off what would be one of their best games this year. The Badgers squared off against a highly touted Indiana
hayes from page 8 the professionalization of intercollegiate athletics is the proper path to reform, or likely to benefit all student athletes.” The antitrust lawsuit, originally filed in March by labor attorney Jeffrey Kessler in a New Jersey federal court, names the NCAA and its five power conferences (the Big Ten, SEC, Big 12, Pac-12 and ACC) as defendants. The suit is seeking an injunction against NCAA rules that limit an athlete’s compensation and its main objective is to create a free market by eliminating the restrictions that “prevent athletes in Division I basketball and the top tier of college football from being fairly compensated for the billions of dollars in revenues that they help generate,” Kessler said in an interview with ESPN. Kessler is one of the country’s most famous sports lawyers, having previously represented the National Football League Players’ Association in a landmark 1992 antitrust case that led to the establishment of free agency in the NFL. The Jenkins lawsuit is the
team, ranked second in the nation, whose only losses and ties have come against Top 25 teams. Wisconsin was winless in the Big Ten this year (0-6-0 coming into the game), but fought hard to earn a point against the Hoosiers. Their first good opportunity came when freshman forward Mark Segbers stole the ball in Indiana’s back third in the 30th minute, but his shot sailed just wide. Though the Hoosiers dominated possession in the first half, Wisconsin’s quick-strike offense struck gold
when forward Tom Barlow broke through the defense and was fouled in the box, earning a penalty kick. Drew Conner converted in the 37th minute to take a 1-0 lead. The Badger defense held strong until the waning seconds of the first half, when Indiana junior midfielder Matt Foldesy’s header found the back of the net with just nine seconds left on the clock. The teams went into halftime locked at 1-1, still anyone’s game. Hoosier sophomore midfielder Tanner Thompson earned a free
latest in a line of legal challenges that have been brought against the NCAA over the past years. Lawyers for former West Virginia running back Shawne Alston also filed a lawsuit against the NCAA in early March, accusing the Power Five conferences of “colluding” to cap the value of scholarships given to athletes. The NCAA has also been named a defendant in a lawsuit seeking concussion damages from former players, and has also fought a challenge from a group of Northwestern football players who were seeking to form a student athletes’ union. It was also on the losing end of a landmark ruling in August, when a federal judge ruled in favor of former UCLA men’s basketball player Ed O’Bannon, stating that NCAA rules that prohibit athletes from receiving compensation for their likenesses violates antitrust laws, according to the ruling. According to CBSSports.com, the plaintiffs in the Jenkins lawsuit are scheduled to file their first motion for class certification Nov. 6.

kick early in the second half, but his shot was saved beautifully by freshman goalkeeper Casey Beyers, whose four saves played a huge role in avoiding a loss. Thompson would get his revenge just ten minutes later, however, knifing through the Badger defense to bury a shot in the right upper 90. Indiana took a 2-1 lead, and it looked like they would hold that score until the end. Senior captain Jacob Brindle changed that. In the 72nd minute, junior defenseman Adam Lauko sent a beautiful cross into the box, where Brindle redirected it
past sophomore goaltender Colin Webb to tie the game at 2-2. That score would hold through two hotly contested overtime periods, and the Badgers pulled off an unlikely tie. The tie marked Wisconsin’s first point in Big Ten Conference play, as they became the third team all season to score multiple goals against Indiana. It also ended the Hoosiers’ six-game road winning streak. On Wednesday, the Badgers will travel to Evanston to take on No. 20 Northwestern in their final game before the Big Ten Tournament.
Wisconsin ends regular season with scoreless tie By Bobby Ehrlich the daily cardinal
In their final regular season game, the Badgers (9-2-2 Big Ten, 15-2-2 overall) battled to a scoreless, double-overtime tie with Illinois (5-6-2, 10-7-2), despite managing to put up a season high 26 shots, with ten of those on goal. Redshirt senior goalkeeper Genevieve Richard and the rest of the Badgers defense played another stellar game, as the Illini were held to 11 shots with only three of them on goal. The shutout was Richard’s 12th of the season, a number that places her tied for third in the Wisconsin record books. The Badger defense had to contend with the Big Ten’s leading goal scorer, Jannelle Flaws. Wisconsin limited the explosive Flaws to just one shot on goal. The team’s stout defensive has been a theme all season long and a huge part of Wisconsin’s success. The defense, led by Richard and redshirt senior Alexandra Heller, has allowed only seven goals all season.
Head coach Paula Wilkins was again pleased with the defensive effort of her squad. “They always say that defense wins championships,” Wilkins said. “I think that’s true for this group. I thought we did a good job, and were much better in the second half and overtime.” Windy conditions helped to frustrate the Wisconsin offensive attack and may have contributed to the Badger’s inability to find twine. However, the offense created plenty of chances, led by junior midfielder Kinley McNicoll, who put up a season-high eight shots. Senior forward Cara Walls and redshirt senior forward Kodee Williams each added six shots. “It’s one of those games where we created enough chances, but I don’t know if we were desperate enough or focused enough in the right moments to be able to get the result,” Wilkins said. With the tie, the Badgers locked up second place in the Big Ten, the school’s highest finish
in the conference since 2000 and the best under Coach Wilkins. Although the tie snapped the Badgers four game win streak, the unbeaten streak was extended to six, which is currently the longest in the conference. The focus will now turn to the Big Ten Tournament, where the Badgers, who earned the second seed, will have a shot to avenge this tie as they will take on seventh seeded Illinois yet again. While Wilkins was satisfied with the defensive play, she emphasized the need to improve on the offensive side for the postseason. “Now we need to put more of a consistent effort forward in the attacking,” Wilkins said. “Getting ready for the Big Ten tournament, that’s something we’ll focus on.” The tournament will be played in West Lafayette on Purdue’s campus, beginning Wednesday. The Badgers’ contest against Illinois kicks off at 3:30 p.m. UWbadgers.com contributed to this report.

Checkmate: UW shuts out Scarlet Knights By Brian Weidy THE DAILY CARDINAL
PISCATAWAY, N.J. – On a cold, windy day in unfamiliar territory, the Wisconsin Badgers played a very familiar game en route to a 37-0 shutout of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. With nothing going in the passing game, the Badgers (3-1 Big Ten, 6-2 overall) rode good games from both star running backs redshirt junior Melvin Gordon and sophomore Corey Clement, and their most impressive defensive performance of the year, thoroughly dominating the overmatched Scarlet Knights (1-4, 5-3). In a sparsely attended homecoming game, the Badgers got off to a slow start, going three-and-out on each of their first three drives, which saw Gordon take three carries for -1 yards as procedure penalties and inaccurate passing saw three consecutive punts by redshirt sophomore quarterback Bart Houston. After getting a first down on their first drive, the Rutgers offense sputtered as their third possession ended with a Derek Landisch sack, followed up by a punt block by redshirt junior cornerback A.J. Jordan, which gave the ball to the Badgers at Rutgers’ 20-yard-line. From there, the Badgers didn’t look back. With redshirt junior quarterback Tanner McEvoy under center, the Badgers ran three plays on the drive, capped

It was a triumphant homecoming for Corey Clement, as the sophomore led UW in rushing. off by an impressive 13-yard run by Gordon to open up the scoring. Clement, a native of Glassboro, New Jersey, had a huge day, leading the team in rushing with 14 carries for 131 yards and two touchdowns, coming from 43 and 36 yards out. “I played the game that I play,” Clement said after the game. “I can only give credit to my o-line. They did a great job, especially on the 43-yard touchdown. I saw everything shift up front and it opened up in my eyes. I give them all the credit.”
Volleyball
Gordon had an equally impressive day, taking his 19 carries for 128 yards and two scores himself, though he had a scary moment in the first drive of the fourth quarter. Up 30-0 with the Badgers once again driving down the field, Gordon returned to the game after Clement’s helmet came off. Running a wheel route up the left sideline, redshirt junior Joel Stave fluttered a ball right to him; however, while trying to make the catch, tight end Sam Arneson hit
Gordon in the left knee with his helmet. After staying down for a minute while the Badgers fans in attendance waited with bated breath, Gordon was helped up and then walked off under his own power to the training table. Yet, as good as the running game was, with 298 yards, the passing game was just as bad. Between McEvoy and Stave, the two quarterbacks went 8-of20 for 87 yards, no touchdowns and an interception thrown by
McEvoy, who appeared to lose sight of cornerback Anthony Cioffi underneath. While the Wisconsin passing attack couldn’t generate much of anything, the Rutgers offense was significantly worse. Stifled by the impressive Wisconsin defense, who have forced three-and-outs in 18 of the 27 possessions between the this and the Maryland game, quarterbacks Gary Nova and Chris Laviano combined to go 7-of-27 for 63 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. On the ground, the Scarlet Knights couldn’t get much going either, with 29 carries for 76 yards, led by Robert Martin, who had 13 carries for 63 yards. As a team, Rutgers averaged 407 yards per game but were held to just 139 on Saturday, taking until their final drive to break 100 yards on the day. “We had a great game plan going into this weekend,” linebacker Vince Biegel said, who ended the game with five tackles and a sack. “We felt solid. We competed at a high level. The separation and execution really paid off for us today in the victory.” The Badgers travel to West Lafayette, Indiana to take on the Purdue Boilermakers (1-3, 3-5) next week before the biggest game on their schedule, a home date with the Nebraska Cornhuskers (3-1, 7-1), potentially playing for a berth in the Big Ten Championship game.

Badgers extend win streak against Hoosiers By Colleen Degnan THE DAILY CARDINAL
The No. 4 Badgers’ winning streak continued as they swept Indiana (14-10 Big Ten, 5-7) in Bloomington Saturday. Wisconsin (20-2 Big Ten, 11-1 overall) outplayed the Hoosiers winning in three sets, 25-18, 25-15, and 25-18. Saturday night’s match was Wisconsin’s 11th consecutive victory in the Big Ten conference. Although the Badgers won, Wisconsin head coach Kelly Sheffield did not think the girls played their best game. “We didn’t play well, we didn’t play to the standards we hold for ourselves,” Sheffield said. “We don’t really look too much into the scores or the wins and losses, we try to play the game the right way.” The Badgers might not have played to their “standards,” but they still beat the Hoosiers both offensively and defensively in Saturday night’s match. Senior middle blocker Dominique Thompson’s seven blocks led the Badgers, who out-blocked the Hoosiers 12-8. Junior libero Taylor Morey dominated the back row with 10 of 31 digs for the Badgers. Thompson also had the Badgers’ team high in kills with nine for the match.
Senior outside hitter Ellen Chapman and freshman outside hitter Kelli Bates contributed to the offensive effort with eight and seven kills respectively for the match. Indiana’s junior outside hitter Amelia Anderson led the Hoosiers with nine kills while sophomore middle blocker Jazzmine McDonald had five blocks throughout the match. Wisconsin’s first match of the second half of Big Ten play might not have looked exactly like what Sheffield wanted to see. “Maybe it’s a little bit unfair that you’re getting on them for having a match where everybody was pretty poor but that’s what you do as coaches,” Sheffield said. “Tonight wasn’t really pretty and we’ve got to sit on that for a long week, and maybe that’s ok so we can get refocused for the Michigan schools.” Sheffield holds his team accountable for every match played. Wisconsin’s tough level of competition has gotten them 25 straight set wins thus far in their season. The Badgers will hope to continue this dominance as they travel east over the weekend to play at Michigan (5-7, 10-12) Friday and Michigan State (6-6, 13-10) Sunday.

Nigel Hayes added to lawsuit against NCAA By Zach Rastall THE DAILY CARDINAL
Wisconsin forward Nigel Hayes is one of two current college athletes that have been added as plaintiffs in an antitrust lawsuit seeking to allow student athletes to be paid beyond their athletic scholarships, according to Jon Solomon of CBSSports.com. Hayes, a sophomore, was added to the lawsuit along with Middle Tennessee State football player Anfernee Stewart to replace three former collegiate players whose eligibility had
recently expired: UTEP football player Kevin Perry, California football player Bill Tyndall and Rutgers men’s basketball player J.J. Moore. Hayes and Stewart join Martin Jenkins, a defensive back on the Clemson football team, as the three plaintiffs in the lawsuit. The Wisconsin athletic department released a statement reacting to Hayes’ decision. “The department fully supports Nigel as a student, student athlete and team member,” said Assistant Director
of Athletic Communications Patrick Herb in the statement. “In a free society, people can reasonably disagree about any issue, express their views and seek to vindicate them through the legal process.” However, Herb also reiterated the athletic department’s stance on the ongoing debate over student-athlete compensation. “The department is committed to the collegiate experience with education as its centerpiece,” Herb said in the statement. “It does not believe that
