Letter from the editors

t’s human nature to want to look good — and the people who run this paper are, indeed, human. Today, we share with you our new look, in the form of a redesigned newspaper and website. Previously, we paid a company to develop and maintain our website. Not anymore. Our new site was conceptualized, designed, developed and published entirely by students. We decided that we should never deny students the opportunity to get their hands dirty, sifting through lines of code until they finally figure out the bug in their work and mildly regret taking on this mountainous task. The changes were long overdue. We know that as Pitt’s Wi-Fi moves from crawling to warp speed, our paper will show up less often tucked under your breakfast plate at Market or inside your biology textbook. There isn’t a newsie in a pageboy cap, hawking at you on your way to class, and The Pitt News more often slides into your news feeds than into your backpack. None of that is meant to be depressing. We will let others announce the death of journalism (and tell us how little us would-be writers will make someday). These are happy, productive changes. Journalism is a service first propelled by cries of “Extra, extra,” and we would never want to give you less. Our new redesign allows us to deliver interactive stories, data visualizations and ideas we haven’t even thought of yet, because they were previously out of the question. But what we still are is the same daily publication serving you scoops and providing students a voice for the past 105 years. We just look a little better, run a little faster and offer a little more. We hope these changes do a lot for you. Like a back-to-school haircut, we will look better with a couple washes and some time to grow on you. Keep checking back in. If you see something you like, let us know. If you see something we can do better with, our newsroom is always humming. Come on in. We’re not that scary — only human.

Lantern Night, pg. 1 In 1920, Pitt held its first Lantern Night in an Oakland home hoping to instill pride in female students and offset the savagery of college men. Now, 95 years later, walls can’t contain number of Pitt women reaching out to raise one other up. Lantern Night welcomes female first-year freshmen or first-year transfer students to the University by passing along the “light of learning” through a symbolic lantern. Flamebearers, Pitt alumni who now have a daughter, granddaughter or sibling attending the University, light the lanterns as the students walk up the aisle of Heinz Chapel. For the first time in its history, Lantern Night took place outside the Heinz Chapel, candlelight mixing with starlight. As more and more women are able to attend college, the

event has become too big to fit both alumni and students inside Heinz Chapel together. Laraine Hlatky, associate director of External Relations and Alumni Programs, said about 800 students 40 flame-bearers came to light the hundreds of candles. Before the candle-lighting, keynote speaker Valerie Thomas-Nije encouraged students to think about the women lighting their candles and their accomplishments, the “cracks they had created in the proverbial glass ceiling” and student’s ability to finally shatter it. “Understand what the woman before you have done ... carry it confidently knowing you will be a part of it,” said Thomas-Nije, the recipient of the Volunteer Excellence Award from Pitt’s Alumni Association. As an organist played Pitt’s alma mater, Lois Yoedt serenely lit two tea candles for her two granddaughters — two more cracks in the proverbial

glass ceiling. “When they stopped in front of me, I said, ‘This is the light of learning. Welcome to Pitt. G o o d l u c k ,’ ” Yoedt, a 1956 Pitt graduate, said. Yoedt earned both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Pitt, but hadn’t been back on campus for many years. On Sunday night, she returned to honor her twin granddaughters transferring to Pitt for their junior year. “The first lantern night was held

a small house,” Yoedt said with a laugh. “It’s wonderful all these beautiful young women get to experience this tradition.” As the candles were lit, daughters See Lantern Night on page 23

$5 pizza goes 6 feet under

In Oakland, the beloved $5 pie is dead Emily Brindley Staff Writer

When Malek Ameli-Grillon found out that Antoon’s raised the price of a large cheese pizza to $6, plus tax, he was devastated. College life, as he knew it, was ruined. “Who carries $6.42 on them? $5 is such a convenient price,” Ameli, an undeclared sophomore, said. One by one, the pizza shops of Atwood Street have raised their prices, pushing Oakland’s famed $5 pizza into extinction. Sorrento’s, which has sold $5 pizzas for almost a decade, raised its prices to $6 a year and a

half ago. Pizza Romano increased prices at the beginning of 2015, and Antoon’s was the last to go when it bumped its beloved $5 pizza up to $6, plus tax, this August. “We just couldn’t make money anymore at those prices,” Sorrento’s manager Eric Majeski said. According to Pizza Romano manager Camille Durak, the cost of the cheese the shop uses rose from $1.08 per pound to $2.95 per pound in the

Pizza, pg. 5 past two years. Durak said Pizza Romano isn’t willing to sacrifice quality by switching to a less expensive cheese. “If you look at the pizza business, cheese is expensive,” Durak said. “And the other things are also getting more expensive.” If pizza shops wanted to survive, they had to bury the $5 pie. Less than understanding, Pitt students lamented the breaking pizza news on Twitter. “Just paid $6.42 for antoon’s. My heart is broken. #bringback5dollarpizza,” Pitt student Brett Dymek tweeted Aug. 28. “BREAKING: Antoons is raising the price of their pizza to $6. The era of the Oakland $5 pizza is officially over. I don’t know what to say,” Pitt alum J.D. Schroeder tweeted Aug. 11. The second stage of the grieving

process was skepticism, and Pitt sophomore Dominic Stanley said he doesn’t think the new price of a pie adds up. “It was worth it for $5,” Stanley, a chemistry major, said, “but who’s gonna pay $6.42 for that stuff ?” Frannie McDermott, a sophomore history major, said she thinks the price increase will hurt business for the pizza shops in Oakland, but the new cost may come with a health benefit. “Maybe people will stop drunk eating now,” McDermott said. Other students like pizza too much to let the increase get in the way. Olivia Cypher, a junior communication major who eats pizza about once a week, said the death of the five dollar pizza won’t keep her from chowing down. “I’m too lazy to walk out of Oakland, and I’m too much of a [pizza lover] to not eat pizza,” Cypher said. “I won’t want to pay more, but I’ll still do it.”

Goss and hoards of other freshman students attended the Pitt Activities Fair, which took place Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. in the Petersen Events Center.

For students who bought a new phone, tablet or laptop since last spring, Pitt’s Wi-Fi just got a lot faster. Pitt’s Computing Services and Systems Development responded to years of student complaints about slow wireless speeds by creating a supplemental wireless network called Wireless-PittNet-Fast in August. Where Pitt’s standard wireless connects students at 2.4Ghz, the faster wireless connects students at 5Ghz. Not all Internet-capable devices can connect to this new network, however. Students with devices old-

er than 18 months must rely on the standard Wireless-PittNet connection, as the Wireless cards in their computers and tablets are outdated. Wireless-PittNet-Fast is available everywhere students can already connect to Wireless-PittNet, the University’s standard wireless network. Jinx Walton, Pitt’s Chief Information Officer, said in an email that the new networks came after a Student Technology Focus Group complained about slow Internet speeds in high-demand areas such as Litchfield See Wi-Fi on page 12

Wi-Fi, pg. 11 Towers and Hillman Library. “[The focus group] provides regular and very useful feedback on Pittsburgh campus locations where wireless connections are not optimal,” Walton said. “CSSD also uses the feedback received through My Pitt to help us target and address wireless network usage needs.” In a separate project this summer, Pitt connected its Internet network to the Pennsylvania Research and Education Network, also known as PennREN. The statewide network, created by the Keystone Initiative for Network Based Education and Research, allows researchers across Pennsylvania to collaborate by sharing research data with one another. According to Walton, the chair of the KINBER board of directors since July 2014, the upgrade will

Before freshman Leah Bailey ever competed for a top spot in an academic program or a place in line at Market Thanksgiving, she jumped into a giant plastic hamster ball and competed in a rolling race down Bigelow Boulevard. “I’ve only ever seen them on TV, and ... wow, it’s here,” Bailey, a freshman microbiology major, said before she climbed into the giant plastic orb at the Welcome Back Bash on Saturday. The hamster ball was just one of the many of the activities available to students at the Bash. From 10 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Aug. 29, Pitt’s Student Affairs invited all students to participate in free laser tag, inflatable house games, hamster ball racing and mini-golf. The Welcome Back Bash also provided free customized hard plastic street signs, spin art frisbees, airbrush tattoos, a photo booth, caricatures, tie-dye booths and carnival games with prizes. Student Affairs, the Office of First Year Experience, the Pitt Program Council and resident assistants collaborated to organize the bash. Alice Snook, a member of the Pitt Program Council, said the bash was meant as an opportunity for fun before classes started. “It’s a fun kickoff to the school year before classes get started,” Snook said. “Last year was the first year for this, and this year it should be larger and have greater attendance.” pittnews.com

Snook estimated that a “couple hundred students” attended the event. The food was the only part of the event that students had to pay for. Using $1 tickets, students were able to purchase a funnel cake for five tickets, a hamburger or veggie burger for three tickets, lemonade for three tickets or a hot dog for two tickets. Snook said the University add-

ed the hamster ball as a result of student feedback. Abhi Dhanvada, a pre-med freshman majoring in bioengineering, said he wants to see a gladiator pit next year, while Bailey just hopes to see more activities. “I wish there was more free stuff and more stations so that the lines would move along more quickly,” said Bailey. Among all the festivities, Ekeni

Abakah, a freshman business major, said he enjoyed the chance to meet other students before the hype of classes starts — not to say that he wasn’t also psyched about free laser tag and a chance to make a street sign with his name on it for his dorm room. “I’m excited,” Dhanvada said. “It’s very nice of Pitt to provide us with free things and fun events like this.”

If you keep asking, I might do it,” he said. According to SORC, this year’s Activities Fair was larger than last year’s because it certified more clubs. “We have a lot of new clubs,” Margaret Shuff, a SORC employee said. “[They] are always rollling in. At least 30 new groups have been certified to start this year.” Club representatives manned booths packed along the walls of the Pete, and Pitt students crowded the floors.

eight different dance clubs — offering everything from salsa to swing to ballet — greeted students. Goss, like many of the hundreds of students milling around the Pete, wanted a club to satisfy his wide range of interests outside of academics, including music, theater, math and science. “[I’m] hoping to join something fun, meet people in the community setting. I was also hoping to find something I wouldn’t expect,” he said. After looking around, Goss said he may join a math and science club, like the one he started in high school, but hadn’t picked any specific one yet.

Pitt’s Program Council scouted its Fall Fest performer options well this year. The PPC booked Walk the Moon to headline Pitt’s annual Fall Fest a little more than a month before the indie pop band’s hit single “Shut Up and Dance” climbed to number four on Billboard. PPC announced the lineup Sunday for its annual festival on Sunday, Oct. 4 on Bigelow Boulevard. “We try to scout out who’s going to get big,” PPC spokesperson Alice Snook said. Though there is no exact science, Snook said PPC listens to its student committees, which keep an ear tuned to up-and-coming pop culture and campus talk. The lineup will also include indie rock ACROSS 1 Pop singer Anthony 5 Drive-__ window 9 Annoying email 13 “Then again,” in texts 14 Real howler 15 In and of itself 16 Arnaz of early sitcoms 17 Save-the-date card follow-up 19 Judgments made on the fly 21 Joe of “NCIS” 22 “Dang!” 23 “The Crying Game” actor Stephen 24 Hole in one 25 Connecticut Ivy Leaguer 27 Taunting laugh 29 Call it quits 36 Champ’s cry 37 Airport compliance org. 38 Cuban currency 39 Take a nap 44 Patriotic women’s gp. 45 Clever laugh 46 Ef counterpart, in temperatures 47 NW state with a panhandle 50 Simpson who’s a member of 12Down 53 Tryst participant 55 Football play comprised of the starts of 19-, 29and 39-Across 58 First sequel’s sequel 59 Pandora’s boxful 62 Cut again, as lumber 63 Apollo 11 destination 64 Earth goddess 65 Part of GPS: Abbr. 66 Like some telegrams 67 Tiny part of a min.

Students seemed pleased with PPC’s choice. Within hours of tweeting the news that it was hosting Walk the Moon, PPC’s tweet was retweeted 93 times and favorited 69 times. In previous years, Pitt has hosted Hoodie Allen, One Republic and All Time Low. Although Fall Fest is free for Pitt students, tickets for other Walk the Moon shows range from $40 to $150. Because it is still planning the smaller acts and events for Fall Fest, Snook said PPC could not reveal the budget for Fall Fest until a time closer to the event.

For flame-bearer Elizabeth Wells, who had already been inside when the girls filed to their seats, the surprise of seeing so many girls made the moment even more touching. “They just kept coming.

America’s sexual education deserves an ‘F’ The rape trial involving a then 15-year-old girl and 18-year-old Owen Labrie at St. Paul’s School in New Hampshire has officially ended — what have we learned? We know that a predatory sexual culture persists amongst our nation’s youngest, most elite scholars who believe girls are animals to be obtained and “slayed.” We know that this is not the first nor last high-profile high school rape case we will see in media’s spotlight. We know that Labrie is no longer enrolled at Harvard University, where he was destined to attend before a jury cleared him of rape charges Friday and convicted him of lesser sex offenses.

Had Labrie attended a public New Hampshire school, he would have received a broad sexual education. New Hampshire requires health and sex education, teachings on HIV/ AIDS and STDs and education that follows Core Curriculum standards. Because Labrie attended a private high school, it’s hard to determine what kind of sexual education he received.

SANDERS, THE TRUE FEMINIST CHOICE Matthew Moret For The Pitt News

The 2016 Democratic primary presents a difficult dilemma — a historic win with a vote for Hillary Clinton, and a legislative win with a vote for Bernie Sanders. If successful, Clinton would make history as the United States’ first female president, while her main competition, Sanders, would be the 44th white male president. On a superficial level, it seems like any self-respecting feminist should support Clinton out of female solidarity. That intuition to base a vote

on gender, though well-intentioned, is misplaced. Voting for Clinton out of female solidarity will not result in more feminist policies — but voting for her opponent, Bernie Sanders, will. Sanders and Clinton appear to diverge very little on what we commonly call “women’s issues.” Both candidates are strongly pro-choice and have actively campaigned behind equal wages for women. These positions are unsurprising in the modern Democratic Party where 68 percent of voters identify as pro-choice, and

67 percent support the federal government taking action on wage equality. Where the two candidates differ is in economics. Sanders’ proposed programs focus more on impoverished people than Clinton’s proposals, which focus on the middle class. Sanders has called for free public college funded by investment taxes on top earners, while Clinton’s plan is essentially an expansion of financial aid. Her program would provide states with money to See Moret on page 25

Moret, pg. 24 increase Pell Grants and reduce base tuition rates over a 10-year span. Rather than providing “free” college, Clinton has supported “affordable” changes, but the country’s poorest students still won’t be able to afford college under her plan. What’s more, Sanders has vocally supported the push for a $15 minimum wage, while Clinton has avoided committing to a figure, despite supporting a general increase. A report by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that women make up nearly two-thirds of minimum wage workers. Any increase in minimum wage would disproportionately benefit women. For people barely getting by, a fleshed out plan for doubling their wages is vastly different from vague support for an unspecified solution. These big differences, though seemingly slight, could have a great signifi-

pittnews.com

cance for women if either candidate beats out the Republicans in the election. According to the 2013 U.S. Census Bureau, four in 10 households with children under the age of 18 include mothers who are either the sole or primary breadwinners. If those children want to go to college, it is now more likely than ever that their mother will provide most of the financial backing. In general, women are far more likely to fall into poverty than men, so when Sanders talks about income inequality, he is — inadvertently or not — referring to one of the largest issues facing women on a daily basis. The reasons for women to vote for Sanders instead of Clinton are not exclusive to women in poverty. There are many reasons to vote for Sanders over Clinton. Sanders has managed to finance his entire political career without accepting large corporate donations, to which

other politicians are beholden. Nearly all of Sanders’ top 20 donors are workers unions, and the rest are non-profit advocacy groups. Meanwhile, all but two of Clinton’s top 20 donors are major banks and corporations like Time Warner Cable and Morgan Stanley. Eighty-one percent of Americans feel that workplace reform, including pay equality and increased maternity leave are assets for our nation. It then seems problematic that large corporations — many of which have histories of gender discrimination — are financing the campaign of someone who has pledged to fight gender biases. Despite these concerns, Sanders has yet to catch up to Clinton’s poll numbers amongst likely female voters. The fact that Clinton’s sixth highest donor is feminist political organization EMILY’s List, an organization that has not donated to Sander’s campaign, indicates that she solidly remains the mainstream symbol of women in politics. A

portion of the electorate will vote for Clinton simply because she is a woman they can identify with. There have been a number of columnists — such as Jessica Valenti for The Guardian, Brittany Stalsburg for Bustle and Kate Harding for The Daily Dose — who have advocated voting for Hillary out of gender solidarity. If Sanders has a similar advantage, it’s not nearly as much of a hallmark of his campaign. He is an open atheist who others endlessly mislabel as an out-and-out socialist. Sanders’ struggle with his image demonstrates why others should see him as an inherently significant leader of the groups his social policies seek to help. While a Clinton victory would represent a step forward for women in the testosterone-fueled world of Washington, feminist voters should favor her opponent. Yet, this may seem like asking voters to set aside a major societal See Moret on page 29

2016: THE YEAR OF THE OUTSIDERS Marlo Safi Columnist

It seems that in the 2016 presidential election, no political resume is the best kind of resume to have. This election hosts career politicians like Jeb Bush, who has been governor of Florida for nearly a decade, and Sen. Rand Paul, who has served in Kentucky since 2010. And then there’s Donald Trump, Carly Fiorina and Dr. Ben Carson — a businessman, a businesswoman and a neurosurgeon. Trump, Fiorina and Carson seem like the most unlikely within the pool of applicants to gain momentum in a presidential race. The record of political outsiders who have won office is very slim. The

pittnews.com

last outsider in office was Dwight D. Eisenhower in the ’50s. Today, anger against the socalled “Republican establishment” dominates the presidential race. Many Republican party voters and activists think establishment Republicans are more interested in appealing to Democrats and maintaining harmony with the media than preserving conservative ideals. These outsider candidates are doing better than anyone would have originally imagined because of anti-establishment Republicans finally putting their foot down. According to the polls, the two leading Republican candidates are Trump and Carson, with the third outsider, Fiorina, close behind. The resounding approval from

Republican voters stems from an anti-politician sentiment. This sentiment isn’t some wellkept secret. When a CNN poll conducted in 2013 found that only 13 percent of Americans say they trust the U.S. government, it became clear that the country views politicians more as deceitful liars than as the knights in shining armor they try to make themselves out to be. Republicans specifically have come to resent the Republican establishment, who have broken promises of repealing Obamacare and ending illegal immigration and have allowed budget stalemates to halt progress. The GOP promised that if they took over Congress, policy would be made,

but they have produced very little. These days, the GOP Congress seems to be on the verge of a meltdown. Americans have grown increasingly jaded by the grandiose promises politicians have made and repeatedly fallen short of keeping, holding especially true for Republicans. A Washington Post-ABC News poll found that only 36 percent of self-identified Republicans believe their party’s lawmakers will make good decisions. From city council to President of the United States, politicians have demonstrated a lack of faithfulness and transparency that Americans are desperately seeking See Safi on page 29

Depression: Medical and mental

“When I came to college, I knew I would meet new challenges, but struggling with mental health was not something I anticipated.”

Bridget Buckman For The Pitt News

How can you tell when someone has depression? How do you treat depression? Most people cannot answer these questions accurately. Assumptions about depression have dangerous consequences. Researchers found in a 2004 American Psychological Association study that people associate depression with psychiatric symptoms, social skill deficit, physical appearance and labels like “crazy” and “psychotic.” These labels surround mental illness with stigma and damaging

pittnews.com

misconceptions — the depressed person is being dramatic or refusing to help themselves. Depression is an illness, but unlike other illnesses, nearly one in four people in a 2006 Australian study felt that depression was a sign of personal weakness. When people view their depression as a personal failure, and not as a medical condition, they do not seek the help they need. They will never get better, and their depression will push them to rash decisions. But what role does education play in preventing this stigma? How do schools educate students

about the importance of seeking help for mental illness? How do people learn what they “know” about depression? Unfortunately, depression is not marked by a physical ailment. It isn’t identifiable by a cast, scar or broken bone. But that lack of a physical marker doesn’t make it less damaging to a person’s life. Everyone with a depressive illness has a different experience. The most common symptoms include anxiousness, hopelessness or “emptiness,” as well as appetite loss and irritability — all feelings I have experienced. In high school, I was an active

and motivated student. I graduated in the top 10 percent of my high school class with a 3.8 GPA. I worked a near full-time job and easily balanced a heavy course load and a flourishing social life. When I came to college, I knew I would meet new challenges, but struggling with mental health was not something I anticipated. Around October of my freshman year at Pitt, I dealt with feelings of hopelessness, loneliness and purposelessness.

While I knew the sadness I was feeling was much more than loneliness and constant homesickness, friends urged me to “perk up” and to “stop having a bad attitude.” Their reactions made it hard for me to realize that depression was an illness that I could treat, not just something that I had to hide or wait for time to fix. Eventually, my depression forced

me to leave school for a semester to seek medical treatment and give myself time to heal. I kept up academically through community college and remained active in my community. I surrounded myself with friends, coworkers and doctors who provided support through counseling and medication that helped me bring out my best qualities. I am thankful I was eventually

able to seek help. I finally feel happy to be myself again — something I thought I would never be able to regain. Others with depression shouldn’t be afraid to do the same. I might have felt alone that year, but a 2011 study from the American College Health Association found that 30 percent of college students reported feeling “so depressed that it was difficult to function” within the past year. But depression extends beyond college. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, nearly one in five adults in the United States suffers from a mental illness. Though a significant number of people acknowledge that they have depression, few actually seek help. According to the Epidemiologic Catchment Area, less than 30 percent of people with psychiatric disorders seek treatment. Though many people are reluctant to admit that they have depression and get treatment, there is a way to prevent the paralyzing self-hatred and self-doubt. People need to be aware of mental illness to avoid feelings of shame and guilt when confronted with it themselves. We can prevent social stigma by beginning mental health education in elementary school. We could inform children before they begin puberty that mental illness, although not physical, is a medical condition that needs to be treated — not hidden or ignored. Depression can be a debilitating illness, but nobody should feel as if they are a slave to its effects. If you feel like you are struggling from depression or mental illness, seek help through the University Counseling Center by calling (412)648-7930. Write Bridget at blb98@pitt.edu.

milestone in favor of genuine policy beliefs. It’s a nuanced dilemma, but the reality is that a Sanders presidency would likely improve the lives of more women than that of the first woman elected. Women for Bernie, currently the largest feminist pro-Sanders organization, is run by a small grassroots group of men and women. Their Facebook page boasts more than 20,000 likes, and has volunteers running “Women for Bernie Sanders” pages in all but six states. They are attempting to directly confront the internal conflict women may feel about supporting another man. “Voting for a man when a woman is running does not make me any less of a feminist,” Kelli Boyle, one of their supporters, wrote for Elite Daily. “It means I’m taking the very feminist route of expressing my right to choose.”

This disenchantment has led to Americans favoring a new breed of politicians — the non-politician, or the outsider. Trump dominates the polls, acting as the brash and loud-mouthed billionaire who Americans love to hate and hate that they love. When asked why they support Trump by media outlets, voters’ answers varied drastically. One Trump supporter claimed that Trump’s drive for perfection is an especially appealing quality in a prospective president, and another supporter said he supports Trump because he would “make the speech police go away,” referring to the politically correct script many politicians ad-

here to but Trump dismisses. Trump leads the polls with 28 percent, the highest tally and widest margin for any Republican in the election. He has only seemed to pick up momentum as the election goes on despite his multiple gaffes, such as the disparaging Twitter remarks he has made toward women. What Trump supporters all seem to love according to Ben Shapiro, a Townhall columnist, is that Trump’s brashness and unwillingness to back down in the face of critics. Trump is a big middle finger to the establishment, a change of pace and possibly the next American trailblazer. The other two outsiders who have picked up momentum are Fiorina, former Hewlett-Packard executive, and Carson, a retired John Hopkins neurosurgeon. Carson, who is third in the polls, currently trails only Trump and Bush.

Political commentators determined Fiorina to be the biggest winner to come out of the debate, with a favorability rating that shot up post-debate from the No. 14 spot to the No. 3 spot. In the first debate, Fiorina demonstrated a sharp knowledge of various issues. As a result, viewers began to see the businesswoman as a capable leader with an international network of high profile individuals that could rival that of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic party’s most popular presidential hopeful. Fiorina brought attention to her platform while also calling out Clinton for her shady track record and allegedly lying about the September 2012 Benghazi terrorist attacks. Fiorina is also the only woman running as a Republican, which appeals to women voters. Read the rest online at Pittnews.com.

Pitt women’s soccer finishes western road trip with overtime win at Colorado College Ashley Moreira knocks home the game-winning goal in overtime at Colorado College. COURTESY OF PITT ATHLETICS

After 90 minutes of fruitless offense, Ashley Moreira decided it was time for the Panthers to go home. The sophomore Pitt midfielder netted the game-winning goal just five minutes into overtime, sending the Panthers out of Colorado and back to Pittsburgh with a win over Colorado College on Sunday. Moreira’s first goal of the season broke a 0-0 tie pittnews.com

against host Colorado College, giving Pitt (2-1-1) a split between its two games out west and snapping the Tigers’ 24-game home winning streak. Head coach Greg Miller said he told his players the overtime period would shape their mindset far after the game ends. “I told the team that they were going to defeat or be defeated,” Miller said. “It was our third overtime game this year, we just couldn’t finish the job

before. I said, ‘You have a choice. You can persevere or go home with another loss,’ and we just grinded our way to victory.” Despite only recording four shots on goal to the Tigers’ 10 and drawing seven offside calls, Pitt held strong thanks to junior goalkeeper Taylor Francis’ prowess in the net. Colorado College, which finished last season See Women’s Soccer on page 32

Women’s Soccer, pg. 31 12-5-4, repelled any string of passes Pitt put together near the goal, clearing out and keeping the ball near midfield. Freshman midfielder Lauren Milliet led the Tigers’ charge with three shots on goal, but Francis kept them out of the net. “Taylor is a stalwart for us. She’s very consistent,” Miller said. “We want to take pressure off of Taylor

by scoring goals and keeping the ball away from dangerous goal-scoring opportunities, and at the end of the day, she did her job.” Pitt began the overtime with renewed energy, maintaining possession and giving itself chances. Finally, sophomore forward Taylor Pryce lobbed a pass in front of Moreira, who had slipped by the defenders and carved out space inside the 18-yard box. She took a couple of touches and

lifted a shot past Tiger goalkeeper Louisa Mackenzie on the right side of the net. “Since Thursday, we were upset about that loss, so we wanted to come in and get a win,” Moreira said, referring to Pitt’s 1-0 loss in overtime at Northern Colorado. “The goal was really exciting, especially since it came in overtime right away.” The game started with some backand-forth play, as the Panthers re-

corded the first three shots of the game. But Colorado College finished the first half with four shots on goal, compared to Pitt’s two. Francis was busy early, and she made four saves in the first half and dealt with possession lingering in Pitt’s defensive zone. “Taylor has a great ability to keep us going, get momentum together,” Moreira said. “We look back at her and say, ‘Let’s do this for Taylor.’ For her and the team it’s rewarding.” Pitt’s early aggressiveness did not net it any goals, partly because of three offside calls in the game’s first 13 minutes. Sophomore midfielder Hanna Hannesdottir led the Panthers in the first half with three shots, though none of them were on target. One of Colorado College’s best chances came early in the second half. Senior midfielder Sarah Schweiss took a low arcing shot bound for the bottom right corner of the net, but Francis pounced on the ball and snared it. Had Pitt not won the game, a missed chance by senior forward Roosa Arvas late in regulation might have stuck in Miller’s mind more than it will now. Arvas broke free with seconds left in regulation with a good look at the goal. She took a few more touches and geared up for a shot, but by the time she was ready to shoot, a defender returned and blocked the shot just before the referee whistled for the end of regulation.

Women’s Soccer, pg. 32 “The win is huge. You want to make this travel out and challenge teams,” Miller said. “We’re still relatively young, so I wanted to see how the team would bounce back from Thursday’s loss. The win today is big for momentum coming back.” Miller said while the travel is difficult, it was not the reason for the Thursday loss to Northern Colorado as much as a lack of respect.

pittnews.com

“The kids didn’t feel [the geography] was a factor, that elevation on their home field,” Miller said. “You go in with questionable respect, and things are going to happen. We learned lessons from Thursday and put them into play today.” The Panthers now return to Pittsburgh for three home games. The team’s next contest comes on Sept. 4 against Villanova at 5 p.m.

Pitt men’s soccer defense shines, goes 1-0-1 in weekend of interstate action Joe Rokicki Staff Writer

Two games, two shutouts. That’s how the Pitt Panthers men’s soccer team began its regular season this past weekend during an eastern Pennsylvania road trip against Lafayette and Lehigh. The Panthers defeated the Lehigh Mountain Hawks 3-0 Sunday afternoon. Senior midfielder Patrick Dixon had two goals and freshman defender/ midfielder Curren Page added a third goal — the first of his collegiate career — in the 75th minute. Pitt tied Lafayette 0-0 after a physical double overtime match on Friday, which helped the Panthers establish an aggressive tone in the early minutes of

Sunday’s contest. “I think we played hard,” Dixon said. “It’s frustrating not coming away with something, but we knew we had to keep the intensity up, get chances and go from there.” The Panthers outshot the Leopards 8-7. Dixon, junior midfielder Romeo Charron and sophomore midfielder Raj Kahlon combined for six of the eight shots. Despite their narrow offensive advantage, the Leopards played a physical game and controlled much of the pace. “They’re a good team and they’re difSee Men’s Soccer on page 35

Men’s Soccer, pg. 34 ficult to play because they are physical and because of their style,” head coach Joe Luxbacher said. “They don’t let you get settled. They just drive balls in and you have to fight for every ball. I don’t think we were quite ready for that.” But despite the lack of preparedness, Pitt managed to hold on and play to draw. “It was a good, hard-fought game,” Luxbacher continued. “We got a clean and even shutout, but we want to score goals and get a win. The guys gave good effort.” Luxbacher knew offense was a weakness this off-season, making it his focus in recruiting. Senior goalie and cap-

tain Dan Lynd attributed the offensive droughts last season to a lack of cohesion within the group and an inability to play a full 90 minutes. Although the Panthers were scoreless through 110 minutes of play after Friday, their defense — along with two timely saves from Lynd — preserved a draw. Heading into Sunday’s matchup against Lehigh, the Panthers knew their intensity and offensive consistency was important to establishing a tempo and netting their first goal. “We believed in ourselves, everyone had the energy,” Dixon said. “[We knew] it was going to happen.” Finally, after 175 minutes of scoreless soccer — it happened. Dixon netted a loose ball from soph-

all of the sudden everyone starts feeling better,” Luxbacher said. Dixon scored again within the 71st minute to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead over the Mountain Hawks. With 15 minutes left in regulation, Page scored a long 30-yard goal from traffic to make the score 3-0. It was his

first collegiate goal.- Page described it as the best goal he’s scored in his life. Pitt outshot Lehigh 19-7. Dixon led the Panthers with five shots and two goals, and Marshall-Heyman collected two assists as well. Lynd recorded one save in his tenth career shutout, which ties him for eighth best in school history. “We were great from every position,” Lynd said. “We were taking risks in the final third [of the game], which was nice to see. Our back line was solid, our midfielders and forwards were really locked in – scoring three goals gives us a lot of confidence.” Ironically though, Lynd didn’t have to finish his own shutout, as junior defender Stephane Pierre bicycle kicked Lehigh’s final shot out of the box to preserve the clean sheet. Pitt returns home for two games next weekend against Eastern Illinois and St. Peter’s. The Eastern Illinois game starts at 7:30 p.m. on Friday.

For a program with tournament goals, Pitt volleyball’s start didn’t help answer any questions. The Panthers won two of three games at this weekend’s Nebraska Invite, defeating two middling programs, but losing to a top-ranked opponent. The team headed west to Lincoln, Nebraska to face off against Grand Canyon University, The University of Tulsaand the University of Nebraska in the invitational tournament.
