SUMMER CARTWRIGHT Lantern reporter cartwright.117@osu.edu TERESA CARDENAS For The Lantern cardenas.53@osu.edu The tradition of jumping into Mirror Lake could come to an end under an Ohio State plan to drain and renovate the surrounding area. Work on the lake, which is set to begin Tuesday, will likely take about 18 months according to university officials. Plans to install wetland marshes around the lake could make future jumps — which have taken place before the OSU-Michigan football game in November in recent years — difficult, if not impossible. Last year, Austin Singletary, a third-year in human nutrition, died after sustaining injuries he received while jumping into the lake. As a result, Undergraduate Student Government voted to support ending the jump, and OSU’s administration put out a statement saying it would work to put the tradition to an end. OSU spokesman Chris Davey said the intention of the redevelopment — which contains both aesthetic and environmental aspects — is not in reaction to the tragedy or to stop the Mirror Lake jump, even if the timing of the construction accomplishes that goal.

Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton greets supporters at a rally on the South Oval on Oct. 10. ABBY VESOULIS Lantern reporter vesoulis.3@osu.edu Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton addressed thousands of Ohio State students and other Columbus residents during her visit to campus on Monday night, urging them to register to vote and touting her economic platform. Clinton’s visit shut down most of the South Oval on Monday, as a crew compiled a set, stage and room for the audience of 18,500, but it also drew a great deal of enthusiasm from some students around campus. “The excitement is here on the ground,” said Jake Vasilj, president of OSU’s chapter of College Democrats and a third-year in history and political science. “The strategic importance is there too, obviously — getting out the youth vote and the millennial vote here in Columbus is going to be key to carrying the state at large.” Local Democratic politicians such as Rep. Joyce Beatty, Mayor Andrew Ginther and former Gov. Ted Strickland helped introduce the presidential candidate prior to her 7 p.m. start time. “We have 29 days to save America from the likes of Donald Trump,” said Strickland, who is running against incumbent Republican Sen. Rob Portman. “And

A crowd of 18,500 people gather on the South Oval on Oct. 10 to hear Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton speak at a rally. Ohio is going to do what Ohio does best. Ohio is going to rally people to the polls to help elect Hillary Rodham Clinton, the next president of the United States.” Clinton gave a final push for attendees to register to vote by tomorrow, given the appearance took place just one day prior to Ohio’s voter registration final deadline on Tuesday. Clinton also reminded voters of their ability to cast their ballots early, beginning Wednesday. “We want everyone to vote. And we particularly want young people to vote, because this is your election more than anybody else’s,” Clinton said. In addition to urging event-goers to vote, Clinton also laid out

her economic plans in an effort to contrast her platform with Trump’s. “I am going to go where the money is. And all the money has gone to the wealthiest, in our country,” Clinton said. “I have made a pledge and I am going to stick to it. I will not raise taxes on the middle class.” Her plan includes trade enforcement, making college debt-free and enacting a new surcharge on mega-millionaires and billionaires. But it is not favored by everyone on campus. “(Clinton’s) economic policies are bad for students, because they just radically increase demand for college, which increasCLINTON CONTINUES ON 2

With Ohio State leading 31-17 near the 10-minute mark of the fourth quarter against Indiana, coach Urban Meyer needed a defensive stop. He sent in the goal line package to combat a fourthand-one at the OSU four yard line. A score by the Hoosiers would put OSU on its heels for the rest of the game. But a familiar No. 97 in scarlet didn’t allow that to happen. Freshman defensive end Nick Bosa penetrated Indiana’s offensive line and made the initial hit on junior running back Devine Redding, halting him at the line of scrimmage and forcing the Indiana offense to retreat to the sideline still trailing by 14. There was no shrug, no hair sticking out of the back of the younger Bosa’s helmet, only a roar from a crowd of over 107,000 embracing Bosa for who he is, not who his brother was. “I was just excited to get on the field on fourth down and have the opportunity to make the play for my team,” Bosa said. “They put the people in on goal line for a reason, just knocked them back, shed the block and made a tackle BOSA CONTINUES ON 7

es cost,” said Nick Frankowski, a second-year in economics and political science and a member of College Republicans. Michael Mosholder, a Trump supporter and a third-year in philosophy and political science, also spoke out against her proposals. “Imposing higher taxes on the wealthier Americans does not actually do anything to solve the inequality we have in the United States,” Mosholder said. “(It) only punishes those who have worked hard for their successes and takes away incentives for Americans to advance in their fields.” Clinton denounced her opponent’s platforms and character multiple times throughout the entirety of her speech. In reference to the recently released hot-mic footage from a 2005 episode of “Access Hollywood,” during which he made lewd comments about women, Clinton said Trump made excuses instead of apologies, in reference to his opinion that the words were just “locker room talk.” “A lot of athletes and coaches from the NBA, from Major League Baseball, from the NFL and more, have been coming forward, tweeting and saying, ‘No, that’s not what happens in our locker rooms,’” Clinton said. According to a compilation of polls created by RealClearPol-

“The jump ending is a consequence of the construction, but not the driving factor in restoring the grounds,” Davey said. “This is the culmination of years of planning and discussion that involved the student body.” When asked about plans for the jump during a September meeting with The Lantern, University President Michael Drake said there were discussions surrounding what would be done, though he didn’t mention the years of planning. “We are having discussions with a variety of people on campus and off campus about that, and that’s something that I then can’t talk about, because I don’t want to get in the way of those discussions,” Drake said at the time. Gerard Basalla, president of USG and a fourth-year in political science and strategic communication, said that students need to realize the jump is over. “Put it to bed. It’s important that students move forward and don’t try to jump,” he said. “You can’t have a tradition where someone dies. You can’t do it.” Basalla said students have a right to be mad about the jump ending, but it is something that needs to happen to keep students safe and prevent possible injuries. Basalla said USG is not planning to create a new tradition to replace the Mirror Lake jump, though that was included in the resolution USG put forward when it voted to end the jump. The new designs of the lake would make it nearly impossible

Work on Mirror Lake is set to begin Tuesday, with renovations likely to bring the pre-Michigan game jump tradition to an end. for students to jump in, said Keith Myers, associate vice president of planning and real estate in OSU’s Office of Administration and Planning. The altered lake will extend farther east toward the South Oval and will have an eight-to-ten-foot shallow wetland around its edges. “There won’t be anything to jump into,” Myers said. “The lake is going to be inches deep at the edges, and it’s going to be full of wetland marsh.” In addition, a new drainage system will be built, which can drain the lake in less than a day. It currently takes multiple days for the lake to fully be drained. A forum in 2014 with more than 200 people in attendance, including faculty, staff, students and alumni, was one of the first

opportunities for students to have a say in what the new Mirror Lake might be. “Faculty leadership were involved in the early phase discussions, which began about two years ago,” Davey said, noting consistent participation from Drake. After the faculty discussions and forums surrounding the lake, a consensus was reached to restore the lake to a design reminiscent of its original state, but no definitive concepts were made until recently, said OSU Provost Bruce McPheron. The vision of the renovation is to make Mirror Lake look as it did in the 1870s when it was a natural hollow, rather than a constructed body of water. “What we’re looking to do is create a concept that really dis-

tinguishes the hollow and takes the lake and reshapes it a bit. Not exactly like the 1870 layout, but along the lines,” Myers said. “It’s kind of longer, thinner, fits more comfortably into the edges of the hollow than it does today.” To coincide with the sustainability goals of OSU, the renovations of Mirror Lake are designed to fix old problems and prevent new ones from occurring. “When Mirror Lake was expanded to its current shape, it began to push hard against all of its edges,” Myers said. “That was one of the issues in and around Pomerene as a result.” He said that this previous expansion of the body of water made some of the original walkways, paths and steps inaccessible, including those that used to lead to

Pomerene. As well as promoting the biodiversity of certain trees that have been preserved in the area, he said the redesign of the lake would allow for more stormwater treatment to take place. In addition to the focuses of the renovations being sustainability and convenience at the forefront of the reasoning behind the Mirror Lake closing, the administration also said the lake construction coincide with renovations of the adjacent Pomerene Hall and the Browning Amphitheater. This construction project, slated to go past $4 million and thus require Board of Trustees approval past that point, is set to be introduced at the next board meeting, Davey said, but investigation of the properties of the lake will begin once it has been drained. “There’s a lot of conditions we don’t know — the soil conditions underneath the water and what kind of clay we have down there,” Myers said. “There’s a lot of unknowns that we’ve got to get into.” McPheron said that he is prepared to hear a variety of opinions regarding the renovated lake. “Our response will be to listen to those conversations,” McPheron said. “We were very clear last winter that there would not be a jump this fall. That’s unambiguous and unwavering that there would not be a jump this fall.” Nick Roll contributed to this article

‘Locker room talk’ not something to hide behind NICK MCWILLIAMS Sports Editor mcwilliams.66@osu.edu Any athlete can tell you conversations in the locker room are sometimes best kept inside the showers and the rows of steel cabinets full of equipment. Discussions rarely focus on politics, finance or foreign policy, and contain mostly immature jokes. Athletes can also tell you that actual locker room talk might be off-color, but is rarely harmful in nature. I have been in a locker room, albeit not at the collegiate or professional level, and have sporadically heard vulgar comments before, as well as some of the words used by Donald Trump during a conversation with Billy Bush before a taping of Access Hollywood in 2005. When my peers and I engaged in “locker room talk,” we were teenagers, cracking jokes, acting out in immature ways and making mistakes that the youth of the world tend to make. Trump, on the other hand, was a 59-year-old man stating an intention to sexually assault a women. “Locker room talk” insinuates overly-manly banter between teammates about their opponents and their daily lives. The locker room is a place for athletes to vent their emotions and blow off steam from the highly stressful environment of sports.

It is not a place for sexual aggression toward women. Now, as an adult, I realize the seriousness of irresponsible comments like these, as well as the potentially dangerous mindset that comments like these can cultivate. I would be lying if I said things that are vulgar and cruel in nature are not conversed in the bowels of football stadiums, basketball arenas and baseball clubhouses around the globe. Yes, the locker room is a place of hyper-masculine attitudes and big egos, but to compare this culture to that of sexual assault against women stereotypes athletes and subtracts from the serious issue of women’s safety. Calling this “locker room talk” to bail out a man who has made more than one distasteful comment toward women and the issue of sexual assault is not just an injustice, it’s a sad setback in addressing one of the nation’s most prevalent dilemmas. Athletes from different sports have expressed disdain on Twitter for the comments made by Trump, and the excuse being put forth for his blunder. Roy Hall, a former standout wide receiver at Ohio State, was on the side of those athletes. “I think what he did was took the term and just tried to mask his specific comments. If you just say ‘locker room talk,’ you might as

well throw that in with ‘boys being boys,’” Hall said. “From a professional standpoint, and then obviously a collegiate standpoint, anything regarding women of any sort, especially regarding assault or anything like that, you don’t joke around with stuff like that at all.” If you still find yourself questioning whether or not to let Trump slide, ask yourself this: Would you feel comfortable if he said this about a woman close to you? How would you be judged if you said something similar? If this is the excuse we give a public figure for such vulgar language, what else can those in the public eye say?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

President Drake: Keep your promise! In January 2015, the Ohio State administration committed to end its contract with Wendy’s if the Dublin, Ohio-based fastfood chain did not join a proven solution to end the abuse of farmworkers in its supply chain and resolve the concerns of the OSU Student/Farmworker Alliance. It was an ethical decision, the kind of decision we should take pride in as members of the OSU community. Where do things stand now, nearly two years later? Simply put, as the deadline for renewing the contract between Wendy’s and OSU looms, the restaurant has done absolutely nothing to resolve the concerns that led to the administration’s promise. In fact, the Dublin-based hamburger chain has done worse than nothing. Since 2015, Wendy’s has steadfastly refused to join the Coalition of Immokalee Workers’ Fair Food Program — a worker-driven solution to longstanding human-rights abuses in the agricultural industry that recently received a presidential medal for its singular success — despite the fact that all the other top five fast-food chains joined the FFP years ago. Worse yet, Wendy’s decided to abandon the Florida tomato industry altogether, where workers’ rights are protected by the

Yet despite Wendy’s willful disregard for our university’s rightful concerns, University President Michael Drake and other OSU administrators appear poised to renege on their written promise to hold Wendy’s accountable for labor abuse in its supply chain. In fact, they have yet even to meet with OSU SFA to discuss steps necessary for ending Wendy’s contract. In a Sept. 13 interview with The Lantern, Drake stated, “We are really good listeners.” This alluded to his administration’s attentiveness during meetings with progressive student groups about his promise to help protect the human rights of farmworkers that had purportedly taken place throughout the summer. The only problem is, these meetings never took place. Ap-

FASHION WEEK A non-profit group offers volunteer opportunities for students who wish to gain experience in the fast-paced world of fashion. | ON PAGE 6

Faculty members bring their work to the spotlight KATHLEEN SENGE Lantern reporter senge.1@osu.edu Art professors are taking their talents outside the classroom and into Urban Arts Space to share their work with the community in the Department of Art 2016 faculty exhibition: “Wish You Were Here.” The show was organized collectively by the participating faculty members, said Rebecca Harvey, the Department of Art chair. “The faculty are all very wellknown international artists in their own right, so they had quite a bit of leeway about what they wanted to put in,” Harvey said. “And that’s what we wanted to see; what they were most excited about showing.” Ed Valentine, a professor at OSU Lima campus who previously taught in Columbus, started the department of art at Lima and has been there for 20 years. Valentine contributed two paintings to the exhibit. He said he was excited to participate in the faculty exhibition because it is an opportunity to see what the rest of the faculty is currently working on. “We used to do the show every year, and that was actually too routine,” Valentine said. “Then it

I miss it.” Columbus campus professor Todd Slaughter contributed a piece called “Aryan Nation Headquarters.” The photograph, which depicts the Aryan Nations Headquarters in 2001, was not actually taken by Slaughter. Slaughter’s art is the framing of the picture.

Aryan Nations was a white supremacist paramilitary organization that had its heyday in the 1980s and 1990s. Slaughter’s frame depicts a line of trees around the headquarters and a suburban community beyond the trees. He said this represents the fact that although Aryan Nations claimed to be a place for wilderness survival training, it was lo-

cated just a few steps away from a settled area. Another piece that will be displayed is a visual and audio piece by professor Ken Rinaldo called “Abiopoiesis Microbiome.” The piece features five hanging white sculptures to represent five bacterial forms, Rinaldo said. Colorful scenes are projected on the sculptures and the surrounding walls

while mixed sounds emerge from the center sculpture. Harvey said that because the gallery is near campus and the show was not strictly curated, the artists were able to experiment with what they contributed. In some cases, they could include art that is not completely finished and see how it appeared in a gallery setting as a way to work and think through the project. The only challenge that the faculty members faced was balancing the show with their already busy schedules, Harvey said. But despite that, they intend to keep the exhibition going. “It will definitely be an annual or biannual thing,” Harvey said. “I think next year we may do a lecturer show because we have a lot of lecturers and graduate students who do amazing work.” “Wish You Were Here” opens Tuesday at Urban Arts Space and will remain on display through Nov. 12. A reception will be held this Saturday from 5 to 7 p.m. Admission to the gallery and reception are free.

Cartoons take over Columbus for second-annual festival GHEZAL BARGHOUTY Lantern reporter barghouty.5@osu.edu Comics and cartoons dominate campus and downtown once again as the second-annual Cartoon Crossroads Columbus, also known as CXC, festival takes over the city this weekend. CXC brings together artists, local arts organizations and community libraries to produce a collective event that shows off graphic arts in Ohio. “By joining together, we can use all of our resources to create something much larger than any one of us could do,” said Jenny Robb, curator of the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum at OSU. For students and community members, CXC will provide an outlet to broaden their views on graphic arts. Megan Sand, a fifthyear in international development studies and student employee at Billy Ireland said there’s more to comics than superheroes and newspaper editorials. “I started reading graphic novels when I was in high school, that’s really where my interest is,” Sand said. “The graphic novels today, every artist is unique, they all have their own style and they all cover different subjects, so our narrow view of what a cartoon is is not really true.” CXC sheds light on the wide

The community-wide festival will be featuring a variety of

events, including a film screening, lectures, late night socials and an exhibition held in different areas of Columbus. Robb said the success of last year’s two-day event has allowed this year’s cartoon festival to expand into the larger, five-day event that the organizations and sponsors originally envisioned. Inspired by the setup of European cartoon festivals — specifically The Angouleme International Comics Festival in Angouleme, France, which is attended by more than 100,000 people every year — CXC aims to take over the entire city of Columbus. For Robb, the

idea of CXC is to get everyone involved. “A lot of other comics festivals tend to be in convention centers, and they’re aimed at audiences that already love and know comics,” she said. “What we’re trying to do is really expand the audience for comics, and so we’re reaching out to casual readers or people who maybe don’t even consider themselves to be comics fans.” The festival kicks off with a behind the scenes look at the 1943 stop-motion film “The Little Prince” at the Wexner Center for the Arts. A new addition to this year’s festival is the scholarly symposium, which is set to take place on Thursday and Friday at the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum inside Sullivant Hall on OSU’s campus. “(The scholarly symposium is) an opportunity for researchers in the area of comic scholarship to

be able to present their research to their colleagues,” Robb said. “We have a number of both faculty members at universities, as well as independent scholars who are coming here.” The marketplace and expo on Saturday and Sunday will feature more than 130 artists and vendors, giving them the opportunity to display and sell their work to community members at the Columbus Metropolitan Library. Sand said the weekend event is the best way for students to immerse themselves in the world of cartoons and comics. All events in the Cartoon Crossroads Festival are free and open to the public, with the exception of a film screening at the OSU Wexner Center for the Arts.

Erica Keysor, a 2016 OSU graduate in fashion and retail and assistant manager at Torrid, is among the volunteers. “I’m excited to see new trends and ideas emerge,” Keysor said. “I’m also excited to feel the energy of the hustle and bustle backstage.” Keysor said she is hoping to learn the operations of the fashion industry by working backstage during runway shows where she will be dressing models and keeping the show running efficiently. Wendy Goldstein, a professor at OSU in the department of consumer science, said Fashion Week

Erica Keysor poses at her place of employment, Torrid at Easton Town Center. Columbus is an event for OSU students to further understand what is happening in the world of fashion. “This is a great opportunity for students to get out there and network with people that are involved in the industry, whether they’re designers, models or people who own stores in Columbus,” Goldstein said. Keysor said attending Fashion Week Columbus gives her the

advantage of gaining contacts of people who work in fashion or fashion-related companies. “I will have the opportunity to meet fashion writers, designers, producers and all others in the industry,” Keysor said. “It’s a huge opportunity, and I hope to expand my contact list after the event.” With Express, Limited Brands and Abercrombie & Fitch in the Columbus area, the city has been named by Fashion Times the third

largest fashion hub in the nation, employing the most designers next to New York and Los Angeles. Goldstein said volunteering at Fashion Week Columbus could lead to greater understanding of the job possibilities in fashion. Some fashion career opportunities, Goldstein said, include sales, merchandising, advertising, branding, designing, modeling, writing and editing. “Overall, this is an amazing

Survivors to attend Gateway Film Center screening of Korean War film ELIZABETH TZAGOURNIS Lantern reporter tzagournis.24@osu.edu On Dec. 22, 1950, aboard freighter SS Meredith Victory, the US Navy performed the largest land evacuation by a single ship. The story of the Hungnam Evacuation, which rescued almost 100,000 North Koreans in total during the Korean War, will be presented Tuesday during a screening of the film, “Ode to My Father,” at The Gateway Film Center. Although the SS Meredith Victory was a cargo ship built for only 12 passengers, it carried 14,000 civilians to freedom in South Korea, said James Person, editor of the North Korea International Documentation Project. Person is responsible for bringing the film to colleges across America. He said the event is a great way to introduce people to Korean culture and history. “This is a perfect film for capturing the last 70 years of heartbreak and hardship for the Korean people and (it) just shows how much they’ve overcome to achieve what they have today,” Person said. “You see the determination of these people to make something great and to really improve (and) never to look back and just march forward.” The evening will begin with a reception with traditional Korean food, and continue with a lecture detailing the events the film depicts, Person said.

The event is free to the general public and will begin with the reception at 6 p.m. and “Ode to My Father” screening at 7 p.m.

MEN’S SOCCER

OSU hopes to find a winning path versus Oakland GENE ROSS Lantern reporter ross.1275@osu.edu After losing its past four games, the Ohio State men’s soccer team returns to Columbus looking to string together some wins at the tail end of its season. The Buckeyes will take on Oakland University at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium this Tuesday,

the start of a two-game stretch at home. OSU fell victim to undefeated No. 1 Maryland on Friday night. Despite losing 2-0, coach John Bluem was impressed with how his team performed. “That’s a real tough environment to play in. To be down early and not give up and battle like they did for the remaining 70 minutes was a great effort,” Bluem

said. “In the second half we outshot them and out corner-kicked them. We made some adjustments and I think we played really well overall. I was really proud of our guys.” The Buckeyes have hit a bit of a drought in the scoring department — not scoring any goals in their last two contests. As a result, the game plan is going to have to change through the team’s

for loss.” It’s fairly safe to say that anybody who paid attention to OSU football, or the realm of college football, knows the name Joey Bosa. As a two-time All-American, two-time first-team All-Big Ten, 2014 Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and third-overall draft pick, the older Bosa set a precedent with the Buckeyes that his younger brother has almost unfairly been forced to meet. Nick Bosa said he knows there is pressure, but he doesn’t necessarily feel it because of his confidence in his abilities. “I didn’t listen to the hype too much,” Bosa said. “Coach (Larry Johnson) made it very easy for me to transition and he knew that there was going to be some pressure. But he kept working on getting me better and my teammates helped me too.” Coming off of a torn ACL in his final high-school season at St. Thomas Aquinas in Florida, Bosa ELFLEIN FROM 8

redshirt freshman running back Mike Weber has been potent all year, but will be going against an entirely different challenge against Wisconsin, which allows just 90.4 rushing yards per game. The ability of the Scarlet and Gray to continually hammer the ball might tire the Badger defense, but Wisconsin has a deep defensive playbook with more than a few looks. Elflein is aware of the challenges, and said OSU will be preparing for everything that

wasn’t able to participate in camp when he enrolled in Columbus last spring. Defensive line coach Larry Johnson has been in charge of bringing Bosa along at a pace he’s comfortable with, just one year after a serious injury. Associate head coach and co-defensive coordinator Greg Schiano said Johnson has done a remarkable job with Bosa, especially given the skillset of the No. 1 consensus weakside defensive end in the 2016 recruiting class. “For a guy his age to do the things he does physically … it’s rare,” Schiano said. “He’s very strong and he plays with great technique which young guys usually don’t. He’s well-trained.” Bosa made four tackles against Indiana last week, including 1.5 tackles for loss. For the season, he has 13 total tackles, four tackles for loss and two sacks. At this time in Joey Bosa’s freshman year, he had 10 tackles and no tackles for loss or sacks. As time trots forward, Bosa may take on a larger

role for Meyer and the defense. Bosa said it took a couple games for him to get acclimated again after rehabilitating his injury. However, it’s becoming more apparent each week that Bosa is on a path

might be thrown at them. “They run a few different defensive fronts,” Elflein said. “Just knowing when they are going to run those fronts and be ready to execute when they give us different looks (will be key).” Some OSU fans might be quick to note the last time the Buckeyes played Wisconsin, when OSU put a 59-0 thumping on the Badgers in the Big Ten championship. However, there has been some change made since then, most notably at the position of head coach.

Paul Chryst, the new leader for the Badgers, has brought a new attitude to Madison, Wisconsin. But, most importantly, he brings a new approach to the team on defense. “I’m sure stuff is different, things are changed up,” Elflein said. “When they bring in a new head coach, it’s hard to go back and watch the old film.” Across the offensive front, OSU will be put to the test by multiple weapons on Wisconsin’s defense. Whether it be on the edge by a blitzing linebacker or with a

remaining six games. “We are definitely going to have to be more aggressive moving forward,” said senior midfielder Henry Chancy. “The time for sitting back is no more. We have to go after every team and get them on their heels. We have nothing to lose now.” Oakland comes in struggling, much like the Buckeyes. At 4-6 on the season, the Golden Grizzlies had won three straight before losing their past two contests. Oakland’s leading scorer is redshirt senior Chase Jabbori, who has netted three goals on only 10 shots through the team’s first 10 games. Jabbori is tied in points with redshirt freshman Nebojsa Popovic and junior Austin Ricci, each with two goals and two assists apiece. The Golden Bears have been outscored 13-10 on the season, splitting time between two of their goalkeepers. Redshirt sophomore Zach Walker has gotten the bulk of the work, starting in 10 games while making 25 saves. For the Buckeyes, it was announced Friday that Tyler Kidwell and Danny Jensen were named candidates for the 2016 Senior CLASS Award. The award is given to a Division I senior that has notable achievements in four different areas: community, classroom, character and competition. “They are both really good leaders, strong students and great

players,” Bluem said. “It says a lot for our university that we are producing these kinds of student athletes. I am happy for the two of them and proud of both of them. “ The OSU men’s soccer program has had the past two award winners, with Alex Ivanov and Zach Mason taking home the award in 2014 and 2015, respectively. While excelling off the field, if the Buckeyes want to excel on the field, they know they must build off their performance against Maryland. “If we keep fighting like that and play the way we did, we can get on a hot streak and show that even though we don’t have everyone healthy right now, it’s still possible for us to make a good run,” said junior defender Hunter Robertson. “This next game is crucial for us.” Players and coaches alike understand that with just six games remaining on the schedule, they must put the past behind them and focus on the task at hand, even in games that are out of conference. “We can’t have a letdown because it’s a nonconference game,” Bluem said. “We have to play with intensity right from the start. We are going to treat this game as if it’s a conference opponent out there. We are going to keep doing what we do well and hopefully we catch some breaks and get some wins.”

to becoming a dominant force on the defensive line. “We probably just have to play him probably a bit more as he’s getting healthy and more involved in the defense,” Meyer said after

the game. “So obviously he’s a guy that, the last name, high expectations. I think he’s starting to fulfill them.”

The Buckeyes won 77-10. strong push in the middle, Wisconsin is shaping up to be the biggest test against the offensive line OSU has faced all year. But for now, Elflein and the rest of the Buckeyes appear to be confident in their ability to come out on top in big games — especially Elflein, who has an interesting favorite part of playing away from home. “Everyone hates you,” Elflein said with a smile. “Everyone’s yelling at you, and saying stuff at you. And it’s pretty much every-
