puts individuals into groups based on their undergraduate majors and compares the undergraduates who go on to earn a graduate degree against those who do not. Peterson’s, an online service that specializes in preparing students for testing and applying to graduate schools, said in its guide for potential graduate school students that salary is a common motivator. “This is a popular reason why people go to grad school,” the guide said. “However, it should not be the only reason, since getting a grad degree is a very serious commitment.” On average, across all majors, securing a graduate degree nets a college-educated worker between ages 25 and 29, a 28.4 percent “wage premium” — that is, they make 28.4 percent more than someone in the same field with just a bachelor’s degree. Some major groups, however, paint a very different picture compared to the average. For example, the top four

majors, in terms of wage premium, all come in at over 34 percent while the bottom four all come in at under 26 percent. The Peterson’s guide notes that an initial wage premium might not always be the best measure, for the payoff of a graduate degree is not always immediate. “While obtaining a graduate degree does not necessarily always lead to a high-paying job right away, it can open up opportunities for future promotions,” the guide said. The major group that best rewards graduate degree holders is biology and life sciences, which has a 63.3 percent wage premium. Within the group, zoology has the highest wage premium at 79 percent with graduate degree holders making $104,000 on average while bachelor’s degree holders make $58,000. Rounding out the top four major groups are physical sciences, social sciences and humanities and liberal arts,

Does the money make sense? ZACH VARDA Campus Editor varda.6@osu.edu Going to graduate school is an opportunity for freshly-minted undergraduates to expand their knowledge and expertise in their field. It is, however, an expensive investment. Students looking to attend graduate school have a lot of factors to weigh, both monetarily and experientially. One of those considerations is how much a graduate degree will bolster their career prospects and the salary they receive at their first job. The major group the degree is in can have a large impact on how useful the degree will be to securing a better wage, according to a study conducted by Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce.

GRE, MCAT & LSAT

Preparing for the big three without breaking the bank

CASEY CASCALDO | PHOTO EDITOR

Preparation textbooks for the GRE, MCAT and LSAT tests can be found in the 18th Avenue Library.

LILY MASLIA Lantern reporter maslia.2@osu.edu On top of living expenses, tuition and everyday expenditures, students interested in pursuing graduate school have to consider not only the cost of applying to programs, but the cost of exam preparation. The GRE graduate school entry exam, the LSAT law school aptitude test and the MCAT medical school exam are three common exams undergraduate students take in pursuing graduate programs. The GRE is required for most graduate programs, from master’s in humanities fields to doctorates in STEM fields, and according to its website costs $205. In 2017, 77 percent of students taking the test were under 25 years old and 44 percent of takers were under 23. “I got one of those Kaplan study guide books with an online access code, and I think overall that cost me a few hundred dollars,” said Collin Roberts, Ohio State alumnus and current material science and engineering Ph.D. student at UCLA. “I got the practice guide and studied basically every day for an hour or two.”

“I saved for a couple years, but when it came down to applying, I wasn’t as fortunate as people that had their parents helping out.” CHRISTY SHARRER Ohio State alumna Current special master’s in physiology University of Cincinnati

Andrea Thompson, an Ohio State fourth-year in psychology currently applying to clinical psychology doctoral and social work programs, said she has found more af-

fordable alternatives to some of the more expensive study guides for graduate exams. She said she uses materials like preparation guidebooks and tools found on the internet to help study. “I use online questions of the day a lot and use Quizlet for math equations and vocab words I don’t know,” Thompson said. The MCAT costs $315, which is a small amount compared to the cost of in-person test prep, which can cost more than $2,000. “I did the Kaplan prep course and Ohio State always has both Kaplan and Princeton Review prep courses come and talk to students,” said Christy Sharrer, Ohio State alumna and current special master’s in physiology student at the University of Cincinnati. Sharrer said even though the in-person prep can be more expensive, it allows students to study until the day of the test compared to cheaper, online options that only offer a couple of practice tests and no in-person assistance. Students looking to take the MCAT also must consider the application cost in addition to preparation. “I saved for a couple years, but when it came down to applying, I wasn’t as fortunate as people that had their parents helping out,” Sharrer said. “So I could only apply to 15 schools and some of my friends applied to 36 schools.” From 2014-18, the average age of medical school applicants was 24 years old, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. The LSAT costs $190, and in 2015, half of all law school applicants were between the ages of 22 and 24, according to the Law School Admissions Council. “I started [preparing] by looking at reviews for the best LSAT prep books online and then bought all the ones I have off of Amazon,” said Lila Appaya, a fourth-year in psychology on a pre-law track. “Powerscore’s ‘Logical Reasoning Bible’ was definitely the best, most helpful book I got.” Appaya also credited Ohio State with giving her opportunities to help her prepare. “OSU offered this free LSAT my sophomore year because they were trying out a digital LSAT and that helped me get a feel for it,” Appaya said. “Also, I’m in a pre-law fraternity at OSU called Phi Alpha Delta and that was super beneficial because they always bring people in for free LSAT prep courses from companies like Powerscore.”

Appaya said she took additional steps toward preparing for the LSAT and noted the competitive prices between preparation companies. “I decided at the end of the summer to get tutoring for [the LSAT] from this place called 7sage, which sells online classes and materials for a lot less than Powerscore and Kaplan,” Appaya said. Powerscore and Kaplan online classes both cost around $1,100 and $1,300. For undergraduate students looking to pursue a graduate degree, Ohio State’s Career Counseling and Support Services located in the Younkin Success Center offers a variety of resources to explore graduate programs and financial aid opportunities.

Apps assisting students with grad school

PLEASE RECYCLE

SHELBY METZGER Lantern reporter metzger.348@osu.edu Time management and organization techniques are key skills to a successful college career, and for graduate students this is no different. Students today have a multitude of apps at their fingertips to assist them in managing their busy schedules. With a couple taps, anyone with a smartphone or tablet can have access to these tools. Apps can provide services ranging from calendars and schedule planners to the ability to block websites that could be a distraction. For example, an app called iStudiez Pro, available on multiple platforms, allows users to organize all their daily activities and assignments in an intricate and user-friendly planner. “It’s basically a digital planner. [It] keeps track of all of my assignments, exams and classes and can be used in any mobile or desktop platform,” Ariel Cooper, a graduate student pursuing her master of business at Ohio State, said in an email. “It also reminds me about upcoming assignments.” Another popular app is Evernote, a tool used to organize, share and take notes quickly. Checklists, links, audio recordings and other attachments can be added to notes, according to the app’s website. Evernote is supported on a variety of platforms. Students who struggle with time management might benefit from Toggl, a time-tracking software that allows the user to see how much time has been spent on work or other websites. Toggl is a browser extension and an application, meaning it’s available on any computer, as well as smartphones. “The reason I find [Toggl] so invaluable is … there’s nobody around to manage your time, and therefore nobody ever tells you if you’re working enough,” said George Pearson, an Ohio State graduate communications student and research associate. “If you know you want to balance time between doing research [and] doing teaching, it’s a really good thing just knowing where your time is going.”

respectively. While some major groups are well above average in wage premium, this means that some must come in below the average and do not offer the salary bump so many seek. “Getting a grad degree does not necessarily mean you’ll get offered a job with a much higher salary than you are getting now,” Peterson’s guide said. On the other end of the spectrum, the arts major group offers graduate degree holders the lowest wage premium. Within the group, film, video and photographic arts majors have the lowest wage premium at 18 percent with graduate degree holders bringing in $60,000 and bachelor’s holders making $51,000.

Completing the bottom four major groups — from bottom up — are architecture and engineering, industrial arts, consumer services and recreation and communication and journalism. Regardless of the motivation to continue into graduate school, it is a huge life commitment and Peterson’s offered a cautionary question for those that might consider it only as a salary booster. “Even with a higher salary, how quickly will that offset tuition loans and the negative cash flow due to not earning while studying?”

Cost of graduate school: More than just tuition AMANDA PARRISH Assistant Campus Editor parrish.272@osu.edu For students considering graduate school, the sheer cost is one of the main concerns that crosses potential applicants’ minds. But before even paying tuition, potential students need to consider costs of application fees, graduate admission test fees and study tools when budgeting for the application process. Application Fees Costs of application fees vary from school to school, but a typical fee costs around $50, according to a report from the U.S. News and World Report. However, more than half of schools charged $70 or more in 2016-17. For most students, that’s not a one-time fee. According to GradSchools.com, students are encouraged to apply to three to eight different graduate programs, which could end up costing students more than $500 just in application fees if they spend an average of $70 per application. Applicants who are members of a particular demographic or need financial support usually can receive a fee waiver that allows them to apply to the program at a reduced cost or for free. For example, the Law School Admission Council website says it created a fee waiver program “to assure that no person is denied access to law school because of the absolute inability to pay.” Graduate Admission Test Fees What master’s or doctoral programs a student is considering determines which

of the graduate admissions tests they will need to take — this will affect how much the student needs to budget. Students sending test scores to the recommended three to eight schools are expected to spend $205 to $700 on reporting fees, including sending the scores to the schools. The most common of the graduate admissions tests is the Graduate Records Examination. The general test costs $205,

“The GMAT Official Guide Bundle 2019” provides more than 1,500 practice questions from previous exams and costs $71.95 on MBA’s website, which also offers the “GMAT Official Starter Kit and Practice Exams 1 & 2” for free online. One of the featured LSAT test prep books is “The Official LSAT SuperPrep,” which is available for purchase on Amazon for $23.80. As for its free test prep option, LSAC partnered with Khan Academy — a non-profit educational organization that produces online video lessons — to offer free LSAT prep materials on its website. The AAMC website offers an array of free online test prep handbooks that act as guides for preparing for the MCAT, but the “Complete Official MCAT Prep Bundle” costs $268, which includes over 2,200 unique practice questions.

which includes sending scores to four schools. According to the Educational Testing Service, sending additional sets of scores costs $27 each. But this cost can be waived. ETS has a GRE fee reduction program that helps lower the cost “for individuals who demonstrate financial need and for national programs that work with underrepresented groups.” The waiver pays for half of the test fee, according to ETS. The Graduate Management Admission Test costs $250 and includes sending scores to five schools. It is $35 for each additional set of scores, according to the Master in Business Administration website. According to LSAC, it costs $190 to take the Law School Admission Test, which includes one score report, with an extra $45 for each set of scores sent. On top of taking the LSAT and sending the scores, the Credential Assembly Service — the LSAC service that processes transcripts, letters of recommendation and other documents for law school applications — costs $195. But students can apply for the LSAC waiver that covers the costs of two LSATs, one CAS registration and four CAS Law School Reports. The Medical College Admission Test costs $315, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges, but the score is automatically sent to all American Medical College Application Service-registered schools. The AAMC offers a fee assistance program that helps students pay for the MCAT who otherwise would not be able to take it, including reducing the registration fee to $125. Study Prep Materials Before students apply for graduate school — even before they take a graduate admissions test — they have to study. And most study tools cost money. Many of the graduate admission test websites have online stores where a student can purchase study tools. Aside from test prep books, the websites also offer free digital options for students that help prepare them for the test, but are not as comprehensive as the official books they sell. The GRE’s test prep book, “The Official Guide to the GRE,” is $40 on its website, and it provides hundreds of test questions, explanations for answers and test-taking strategies. Its online option, “POWERPREP,” is free and “gives you the experience of taking the real, computer-delivered GRE General Test,” according to the website.

Mac & Cheese Festival to help fund cancer research KAYCIE GOLIC Lantern reporter golic.3@osu.edu What’s better than all-you-can-eat mac and cheese? The answer: all-you-can-eat mac and cheese for a good cause, and the good cause is funding cancer research. Hosted by the James NextGen Ambassadors Society, the third-annual Columbus Mac & Cheese Festival will take place from 4 to 8 p.m. Friday at Easton Town Center. All proceeds from the Mac & Cheese Festival will go toward the Adolescent and Young Adult cancer program at The Ohio State University to fund cancer research, as studies at The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute show cancer has become the No. 1 fatal disease among young adults. Josh Barkan, chair of The James NextGen Ambassadors Society and founder of the festival, said the society is a group of individuals with a shared vision of creating a cancer-free world. “The whole goal with [the] Mac and Cheese Fest was to really throw an event for everybody — for all walks of life,” Barkan said. “Cancer affects everyone, it doesn’t target race or religion. We wanted to do something that’s such a simple idea that the masses love and to show you can make a difference with just $25.” Since the start of the festival in 2016, $140,000 has been raised for cancer research. These funds have helped lift several projects off the ground, including a breast cancer survivorship program and a research study on sexual morbidity among AYA cancer survivors, as well as the creation of a patient resource kit for newly diagnosed AYA cancer patients. “We’re really thinking about where can the money have the greatest impact,” said Mary Connolly, member of the NextGen Ambassadors Society. Additional studies at the James show that up to 46 percent of survivors have

concerns about fertility issues resulting from receiving cancer treatment. In light of this, the funds this year will support the Fertility Preservation and Reproductive Health program at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – James, as well as support the National Oncofertility Conference that will be held May 18, 2019. “Right now, we want to build something sustainable for the future, be that rock that the James can lean on and is a pillar that will always be there,” Barkan said. Currently working at the James as a social worker, Connolly is a sarcoma survivor who said she views the Mac & Cheese Festival as a great place for young cancer survivors to meet and connect with other young survivors. Connolly said she hopes the group will one day start a program that will provide therapy and classes that will teach patients how to eat healthy and become active again after treatment. “Having cancer at a young age was really hard; it affected all of my relationships and friendships,” Connolly said. “I want to put together a program that provides the kind of support they need.” There are 17 restaurants confirmed for Friday that will be serving more than 10 different types of mac and cheese, including Brio, Fado and Melt. After the festival, there will be an online vote to determine COURTESY OF LIZ PORTER PHOTOGRAPHY which restaurant makes the best mac and Festivalgoers walking around the 2017 Mac & Cheese Festival on Oct. 6, 2017 at cheese in town.

Rumba Cafe wants concertgoers to register to vote COURTNEY VOISARD Lantern reporter voisard.19@osu.edu In the last week to register to vote in the 2018 midterm elections, Rumba Cafe is making sure that Columbus music lovers are prepared to cast their ballot on Nov. 6 in the grooviest way possible: with live music and drinks. On Friday, volunteers at Rumba Cafe will be registering as many people to vote as they can while featuring an empowering lineup of bands that exclusively feature women, femmes and nonbinary people, including BABS, Corey Landis & the Finer Things, WYD and Lowlights. “We want to make sure that the people that we love and know and that support local music are also utilizing their voice when it comes to voting,” said Sarah Nocar, vocalist and guitarist for BABS, and head organizer of the show. “Being politically involved is very important to us.” Carly Fratianne, vocalist for WYD, said her and bandmates Courtney Hall and Maddy Ciampa were all set to play after Nocar reached out to them with her idea. “We can all kind of see what is happening here and it is not too great for a lot of people,” Fratianne said. “We are trying to make sure everyone feels empowered to use their voice to elicit some change from the higher-ups.” Volunteers in the crowd will be instructing people on how to properly fill out the registration form and double-checking that forms are filled out correctly, Nocar said.

Nocar and bandmates Devin Copfer, Lissa Reed and Liz Fisher are all activists in different regards. Their collective experience with volunteerism helps to give their music an empowering vibe. “Activism kind of colors everything that we do, because it is such a large part of all of our lives,” Nocar said. “Music is both a platform for activism in a more creative and fun way, and also just a release from the difficulties of dealing with this stuff on a daily basis.” Nocar said BABS and WYD similarly hope this show empowers women and gives them a space to feel their feelings loudly and collectively while wearing their “baddest” outfit. “Our music is a lot of the things I think that we don’t really get to say as women in the public sphere,” Nocar said. “So, we get on stage and yell about it.” BABS also played at a previous voter registration show to get people registered for the primary presidential election back in 2016 at Rumba Cafe. Nocar said the atmosphere of the show was one of a kind. “We actually sold out and registered 85 people to vote, which is a lot in one night. It was great,” Nocar said. The show is open to all ages with a $5 fee and an extra $2 charge for those under 21. Doors open at 9 p.m. on Friday.

Art gallery denounces Trump administration TRISTAN RELET-WERKMEISTER Lantern reporter relet-werkmeister.1@osu.edu

(Not) Sheep, a new gallery created by the manager of Muse Gallery, opened on Sept. 5 at 17 W. Russell St. in the Short North, to show anti-Republican works. Gallerist Caren Petersen wants (Not) Sheep to be a platform for artists to express their opinions. She said her aim is to denounce the current Republican administration and the perverted art sector. “I’m very political, so I’m willing to let the artist go as far as they want,” Petersen said. This gallery is an evolution of Muse Gallery, which Petersen continues to manage. She said she is no longer in the mindset of selling everything, she just wants to focus on curating a platform for political opinion. Petersen said a few regular customers stopped doing business with Muse Gallery to protest the opening of (Not) Sheep. However, she thinks she is fortunate to own a space of free expression. “This is art for art’s sake,” Petersen said. Petersen said she knows how politically divided the United States is and recognizes that she might not be making any difference with her gallery, but likes to present ideas. What makes art controversial is the fact that it

For this series, the artist took words used in the porn industry describing women and put them on photo-realistic backgrounds to reveal degrading and sexist pornographic language. The piece, having been made

before President Donald Trump’s infamous comments about women which surfaced during the presidential election, makes an unintended reference back to that controversial period. “I’m more interested in seeing

how people interpret my work through the lens of their own experiences,” Shinko said. “If some people want to interpret it that way, it’s fine.” Petersen has not sold any pieces yet, despite the 200 visitors who came within the first three weeks. The slow start is partially due to construction in the neighborhood and the location, which is slightly off High Street, she said. Five percent of each sale will be donated to charities upon consent of the buyer. The customer will choose from a preselected list of charities, which combat political decisions made at the government level, notably ones helping Planned Parenthood, Petersen said. In 2016, Petersen had openheart surgery and was told she only had eight to 12 years left to live. “It made me feel like, excuse my language: ‘f*** it, what do I have to lose?’,” she said. The name “(Not) Sheep” popped up in her head spontaneously. She had the idea of the gallery’s logo, representing a wolf in sheep’s clothing, subtly condemning those who follow ideologies blindly. “With this gallery, I have a three-year plan, unless he gets reelected. Then I have a seven-year plan,” Petersen said. FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM

No. 5 Ohio State debuts at home against No. 8 Colgate BRIAN NELSON Lantern reporter nelson.1302@osu.edu The No. 5 Ohio State women’s hockey team returns to Columbus for its home opening weekend series against No. 8 Colgate. The Buckeyes started their season off with two wins against Quinnipiac in Connecticut, winning both contests by scores of 3-2. Now, with opening jitters shaken off, the Buckeyes will find themselves tested early in the season against Colgate. While Colgate might have already lost this season, splitting its series last weekend against unranked Penn State, the Raiders are still ranked in the top 10 and made it to the national championship last year, where they lost to Clarkson 2-1 in overtime. “We have to respect our opponent. They almost won it all last year,” Ohio State head coach Nadine Muzerall said. “Even though they are coming off a loss, that can happen to anybody. We have to make sure we take our practices seriously and prepare. We are very excited to play them at home.” To meet the test, the Buckeyes will look to players like sophomore forward Tatum Skaggs for quality play on the ice. Skaggs was a key factor in the victory over Quinnipiac on Saturday, scoring the last two goals for Ohio State to secure the win.

Ohio State won 3-2. “I think the biggest thing about Saturday was the team was able to settle down,” Skaggs said. “We took a deep breath and played our systems well, and that resulted in me being in the right place at the right time being able to score.” Another highlight from the first two games was sophomore goaltender Amanda Zeglen. The backup goalie from last season, Zeglen came into the first series

with only seven starts under her belt. Zeglen allowed four goals over the two games, but never put the Buckeyes in a position where they lost control of the game, keeping Quinnipiac from leading the entirety of the weekend. “It was honestly awesome to play in front of such a defensive team,” Zeglen said. “They made me feel comfortable in the net, and now we can build off of our

wins heading into this weekend.” Muzerall had nothing but positive things to say about Zeglen’s performance. “Zeglen did very well over the weekend,” Muzerall said. “She controlled her rebounds and helped make some key saves off of mental errors that were made by the defensive side.” Last year, the Buckeyes were the Cinderella team of women’s

of respect the past year making it to the Frozen Four,” Skaggs said. “Teams are not going to underestimate us anymore, which is what we want. I think Colgate is a great team, so this weekend is going to have two solid games. Both teams are going to come out and hit the ice. We are going to play aggressive because we know we have to play hard to beat them.” The Buckeyes play on Friday and Saturday against Colgate. Friday’s game is set to start at 6 p.m. and Saturday’s game starts at 3 p.m. at the OSU Ice Rink.

Ohio State eyes turnaround for pair of games BAILEY SCHEUFLER Lantern reporter scheufler.7@osu.edu After a tie in the last match with Nebraska at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium, the Ohio State women’s soccer team will aim for better results when it faces Michigan at 7 p.m. Friday and Michigan State at 1 p.m. Sunday. With the tie, the Buckeyes sit at 6-4-1, with a 3-1-1 record in the Big Ten. The Wolverines are coming off back-toback losses against Minnesota and Northwestern, tallying an overall record of 6-6-0 on the year. Last season, Ohio State won a home game against Michigan 1-0. After scoring the goal for Ohio State that tied up the game with Nebraska, sophomore defender Izzy Rodriguez is looking forward to competing against two teams on the road once again. “We’ve had a lot of road trips,” Rodriguez said. “So I think we’re pretty comfortable this year with playing away. Obviously we love being home, but I think with the experiences we’ve had in our nonconference, being away a lot, that’s helped us prepare to be away also a lot in the conference.” Sophomore midfielder Alia Martin notched the only goal for Michigan in the previous game against the Wildcats, during which Northwestern came away with a 4-1 victory. Michigan’s strength this season is its offense, which scored a total of six goals against Central Michigan, had nine saves against Purdue and eight corner kicks against Boston University.

Ohio State sophomore defender Izzy Rodriguez (9) scores a goal off a penalty kick in the second half of the game against Iowa on Sept. 27. Ohio State won 2-0. Sophomore midfielder Nicki Hernandez has been a vital player on the Wolverines “I think we’re really offense, totaling six goals, five assists and motivated this week. This two game-winning goals so far this season. Ohio State and Michigan will battle out weekend especially since the rivalry, this time in Ann Arbor, Michbecause we’re going to igan. be playing both the teams The last time Ohio State met Michigan State, the match went into double overtime up north, so that’s kind of enough motivation in itself.” at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium, where the Buckeyes won against the Spartans 1-0. DEVON KERR Michigan State currently sits at 5-4-3, Ohio State senior goalkeeper

0-3-2 in the Big Ten, shining in nonconference play and winning five consecutive games. However, the Spartans continue to compete in rough matchups in Big Ten play, recently coming off two consecutive losses to Wisconsin and Illinois. Freshman forward Camryn Evans seems to be Michigan State’s star player this season, scoring six total goals — four against Oakland and two against Purdue. The Spartans will look for a victory against the Buckeyes this weekend, following their defeat here last year. Senior goalkeeper Devon Kerr said the team was happy coming off a tie with Nebraska, despite not getting the results it wanted. She also said her teammates showed a lot of resiliency and fight by coming back to tie the game. “I think we’re really motivated this week,” Kerr said. “This weekend especially since because we’re going to be playing both the teams up north, so that’s kind of enough motivation in itself.” After a shaky start to the season, Ohio State sees the pair of Michigan matchups as a chance to turn around its start, hoping to take each game at a time and focusing on coming away with a win. “After the last couple of games,,” Rodriguez said, “I think our biggest thing is to take each game one at a time and not really focus on the big picture at the time,” Rodriguez said. “That’s what’s helped us succeed in the past couple of games is we really focus on the details of each game, and then hopefully that will create the bigger picture of success.”

Connor Senn Memorial carried on by new staff CHARLIE MILITELLO Lantern reporter militello.15@osu.edu “Play like Connor today.” The motto has greeted generations of Ohio State soccer players, standing as a constant reminder that the program is more than just the X’s and O’s. The motto greeted Brian Maisonneuve as he took over for former head coach John Bluem prior to the start of the 2018 season. Connor Senn’s legacy still lives on. Friday marks the 17th annual Connor Senn Memorial Match for the Ohio State men’s soccer team. Ohio State will take on Cleveland State in a match that serves to honor the memory of the former Buckeye soccer player, who died in 2001. Senn played on the team as a freshman walk-on. The Buckeyes traveled to the University of Akron on Sept. 26, 2001; during the course of that night’s match, Senn collapsed on the field. Senn died later that night: the result of a congenital heart defect that was nearly impossible to detect at the time. Honoring Senn’s memory is a tradition that has carried on from generation to generation of Buckeye players and coaching staffs. “That type of legacy is in the locker room,” Maisonneuve said. “His magnet is still up in the locker and what he stood for is something that we want this program to stand for. So it was a no-brainer. Keep it going. I met with Lance, his dad, and it means a lot to this program, and the stamp that Connor has left on this program is huge.”

Bluem, before he left, or retired, he really instilled in us how important this match was to the program and what it meant, so we take it serious.”

“That type of legacy is in the locker room. His magnet is still up in the locker and what he stood for is something that we want this program to stand for. So it was a no-brainer. Keep it going.” BRIAN MAISONNEUVE Ohio State head men’s soccer coach

COURTESY OF OHIO STATE ATHLETICS

Former Ohio State men’s soccer player Connor Senn collapsed during a game against Akron on Sept. 26, 2001; he later died, his death attributed to a congenital heart affect. Even though Senn’s tragic death came almost two decades ago, he has remained an important part of each and every Ohio State squad to take the field in the years since. Even for the current crop of Buckeyes, it is evident that they know not only who he was, but how important it is to everyone involved with the Ohio State men’s soccer program that they continue to honor him.

It’s a match that has additional meaning for Ohio State redshirt junior goalkeeper Parker Siegfried, as he grew up just down the street from the Senn family. “It’s a really cool thing for me because I grew up about 10 houses from where the Senns grew up in Granville, so it’s always meant a lot and he’s kind of been a name that I’ve known since I was a kid,” Siegfried said. “It’s always

that Indiana does not. Redshirt sophomore quarterback Dwayne Haskins showed some flaws against Penn State, but also many strengths, which he put on display in the fourth quarter to bring the Buckeyes back for a close win. No matter what the Hoosiers have done against the pass game to this point, they have not played a guy like Haskins yet. The running game has slowed to a halt in the past two games, but Indiana’s mediocre run defense could help running backs J.K. Dobbins and Mike Weber get the ball moving.

Ramsey is a solid quarterback, but he is no McSorley, and nothing on the Hoosiers offensive side stands out enough to get past a defensive line that has been nothing short of superb to this point. Expect this game to be closer than it should be, considering where it falls on the schedule, but Ohio State is more prepared for a game like this following Iowa last year, and has the pure talent and home-field advantage to avoid any potential trap Indiana holds.

er said. “They have answers for everything.” Prediction Indiana might be 4-1, but its weak schedule to this point does not suggest it is one of the Big Ten’s top teams, capable of upsetting Ohio State. The Hoosiers have not beaten the Buckeyes since 1988 — a streak of 25 games. But Indiana does have the benefit of following Penn State, which was at least a piece of Iowa’s stunning upset against Ohio State a season ago.

an awesome night for the team and the program.” Fifth-year midfielder Brady Blackwell said this match is always a special one for the team and something that it takes pride in. “We all know who he was and what happened so I think it’s a little extra incentive to play hard and not take anything for granted,” Blackwell said. “Coach

Following his death, Senn’s father set up the Connor Senn Memorial Fund. The fund provides a fully-funded scholarship and raises money to be donated to the Dorothy M. Davis Heart & Lung Research Institute at the Wexner Medical Center. The Buckeyes will face Cleveland State for the Connor Senn Memorial Match at Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium at 7 p.m. Friday.

tion and personnel to fix the issue. Even with the mistake during the Penn State game, the coaching staff views Wade as a significant part of the game plan moving forward. For defensive coordinator Greg Schiano, it can be hit or miss when a younger player enters the lineup. In Wade’s case, his recent playing time is because of consistent production on the practice field. “More reps, you either have more chances to make a mistake or more chances to make a play,” Schiano said. “And the guys that are ready, they had more chances to make a play. Shaun did that because he kept making more plays.” With Pryor suspended for the first half of the Indiana game on Saturday after recording a targeting call in the fourth quarter against Penn State, Wade could see increased playing time at safety, even if redshirt sophomore Jahsen Wint gets the start. Grinch said there is nothing settled in the secondary, but he has been pleased with the progress Wade has made, especially at safety. However, Grinch said a decision regarding Wade will need to be made: What position does the redshirt sophomore focus on?

“Ultimately, you have to zero in somewhere,” Grinch said. “Otherwise, you stunt the growth of the individual.” Wade doesn’t care where he plays. He said it’s up to the coaches. As long as he is on the field on Saturdays, he will be satisfied. “I just needed to go hard, that was the only thing,” Wade said. “I got the skill set and I know how to do it in my mind. I just have to go hard every time.”

Ohio State comes home to battle Indiana WYATT CROSHER Assistant Sports Editor crosher.1@osu.edu A 1-point win over a top-10 Penn State team isn’t anything new for Ohio State. Last season, the Buckeyes came back from being down by 11 with less than five minutes to play to beat the then-No. 2 Nittany Lions 39-38 behind a historic performance from former quarterback J.T. Barrett. Ohio State lost the following week in a 55-24 beatdown to an unranked Iowa team in Kinnick Stadium. Now, 11 months later, No. 3 Ohio State faces a similar situation, and goes into a matchup against Indiana hoping history doesn’t repeat itself at Ohio Stadium. Running backs coach Tony Alford said he won’t make the same mistake he did last season against the Hawkeyes. “I didn’t do well enough to prepare my guys to play at the level they needed to play at to beat a good football team,” Alford said. “That’s on me.” Indiana, on paper, has the record to do it — the Hoosiers come into the matchup 4-1, their lone loss coming at home with a score of 35-21 against No. 20 Michigan State. The offense is led by redshirt

The Ohio State offense celebrates after sophomore running back J.K. Dobbins (2) scored a touchdown in the second quarter of the game against Penn State on Sept. 29. Ohio State won 27-26. sophomore Peyton Ramsey, another dual-threat quarterback who has 10 touchdowns on the season, eight through the air and two on the ground. This will be the fourth straight quarterback Ohio State has faced who is known for making plays with his feet after redshirt senior quarterback Trace McSorley broke the Nittany Lions record with 461 all-purpose yards, 175

with his feet. Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer said he sees a lot of McSorley in Ramsey’s game. “They have a guy that’s a dual [threat] in Ramsey. He’s a gutsy player, man, and he’s one of those guys that creates something out of nothing,” Meyer said. “Last year’s quarterback that they started, he was dropping seeds on people. This has the other element.”

“I didn’t do well enough to prepare my guys to play at the level they needed to play at to beat a good football team. That’s on me.” TONY ALFORD on loss at Iowa Ohio State running backs coach

The quarterback “dropping seeds” last year was Richard Lagow, who threw 65 times for 410 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Indiana’s 4921 loss to the Buckeyes in their opening game of the season. Ramsey completes 71 percent of his passes, with 1,039 yards, eight touchdowns and five interceptions. But don’t expect Ramsey to light up the stat sheet like Lagow; he averages nine yards per completion. In the run game, freshman Stevie Scott takes a majority of the carries, earning 4.7 yards per rush for 464 yards and four touchdowns. Ramsey is up to 170 yards rushing through five games. The offensive numbers don’t stand out much for the Hoosiers; they rank No. 65 in total offense with 412.2 yards per game and No. 80 at 28.2 points per game. But the defensive side of the football has been Indiana’s strong point thus far, ranking No. 25 with 321.8 yards allowed per game. The real strength comes from the pass defense, allowing only 163.6 yards per game, which is No. 14 in the nation. The Indiana defense also has accounted for 10 turnovers this season — tied for No. 13 in the NCAA. “They played very well. Their scheme is outstanding. I think they’re very well coached,” MeyPREVIEW CONTINUES ON 11

Shaun Wade becomes utility player for Ohio State secondary COLIN GAY Sports Editor gay.125@osu.edu Shaun Wade is willing to do whatever it takes to help the Ohio State defense prosper. After sitting out his first season following an abdominal injury in 2017, the redshirt freshman has done anything he can to get on the field while teammates and fellow 2017 recruiting class members, such as cornerback Jeffrey Okudah and safety Isaiah Pryor, receive regular playing time. Wade did not want to get lost in the shuffle. To make sure of this, he became the ultimate utility man for the Ohio State secondary, extending his ability from his original position of cornerback to the nickel and safety spots, allowing him to find playing time at positions for which he was not recruited. For Wade, position did not matter. He just wanted to make a contribution. “I just wanted to be on the field to help the team,” Wade said. “That’s all.” Ohio State safeties coach and co-defensive coordinator Alex Grinch noticed Wade’s drive. In the Sunday practice after Ohio State’s season-opening win against Oregon State, Grinch asked Wade if he was willing to play some reps at safety. Wade agreed and, ever since, has been in Grinch’s position room. Even though safety is Wade’s newest position, Grinch said he has shown signs of progress. “He’s flashed for us a little bit,” Grinch

said. “That’s a guy, when you do those things, you kind of make a determination as a staff is what’s the best position for him on the current roster to help us in 2018.” For Wade, the major difference between playing corner and playing safety is playing off the ball; he was used to playing man-on-man and on the ball as a corner his entire career. Even though nickel is closer to his normal position, Wade said it has been a transition, having to guard the slot against smaller, quicker receivers.

“I just needed to go hard, that was the only thing. I got the skill set and I know how to do it in my mind. I just have to go hard every time.” SHAUN WADE Ohio State redshirt freshman defensive back

“Nickel actually is a fun position to play,” Wade said. “It’s just like corner, but you can’t back up at all and you have to get hands-on definitely. If you don’t, it’s going to be a long day for you.” However, there have been moments when Wade has shown he is still learning. Playing nickel against Penn State’s redshirt freshman wide receiver KJ Hamler, Wade did what he was not supposed to do: back up. Instead of doing what he was supposed to — get up on Hamler at the line of scrim-
