Tech Wins Super Regional Championship, Advances To College World Series

or the second time in program history, the Texas Tech Red Raiders are headed to Omaha.

The No. 5 national seed defeated East Carolina 11-0 in a winner-take-all game on Sunday at Dan Law Field to secure their spot

in the College World Series.

Coach Tim Tadlock is taking his second team to the College World Series in his four years at Tech. He said the fans in Lubbock are the best around and they appreciate baseball, which makes the postseason journey even more special for him.

“I don’t think there’s a place like (Dan Law Field) in the country to play in,” Tadlock said.

“It’s a special deal playing out there and we’re going to take it a little bit north here next week.”

The Red Raiders lost the first game of the NCAA Championship Lubbock Super Regional on Friday 8-6, and were put into a position where they had to win two in a row to keep their season alive.

Senior first baseman Eric Gutierrez said the team felt fine after Friday’s loss and kept

a never-say-die attitude.

“You’re always going to face adversity and we faced it throughout the year and we responded good through,” Gutierrez said.

“We didn’t even feel a little bit that we were against the wall. We just kept playing our game and having fun.”

Lubbock, Tech students react to Orlando mass terror shooting

By MICHAEL CANTU News Editor

Outpours of emotion flooded social media and most other avenues of communication Sunday after news of a shooting in Orlando, Florida.

It was 2 a.m. Sunday morning when the shooting occurred and lasted near 5 a.m. with a hostage situation and police standoff, according to the Associated Press. Omar Mateen, the gunman who was gunned down at the scene of the crime killed 49 other people at Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

Quickly after, Lubbock residents began to pay tribute to the victims of the tragedy.

Alongside social media post with hashtags relating to the event there was also a vigil hosted Sunday evening at St. Johns United

Methodist Church at 1501 University Avenue.

The idea for vigil was sparked by Kevin Young, Pastor of the church, however he was unable to speak to The Daily Toreador to comment on the vigil.

“This was initially to provide solace for our community and to provide a safe space to come together and (for people to) feel what they feel,” Stephanie Council, director of music ministry for St. John’s said.

At the vigil people also wrote letters that were to be sent to the nightclub in Orlando, Council said. Though there is no further plans from the church on the books as of know, she said, they are encouraging people to publically support and advocate for help towards the victims and their families.

Students of Texas Tech are also express-

ing their sympathy for those involved, family and victims, Elizabeth Kennedy a pre-med student from Houston said.

“I think of their families, immediately,” Kennedy said. “What can they feel, they must be torn apart?”

The frightening part about this situation is it can happen anywhere at any time, she said, which makes living everyday life extremely unpredictable.

Besides students and residents offering condolences Lubbock’s alternative lifestyle nightclub, Luxor Club located at 2211 Marsha Sharp Freeway, expressed to the public their grief.

According to the club’s Facebook page they were closed Sunday evening to mourn and honor the people killed in Orlando. Though

in most situations the show must go on, according to their Facebook page, management felt it more appropriate to not open for the evening.

According to the clubs website they will not be open again until Friday evening at 9 p.m. The Daily Toreador reached out to Luxor, but was unable to get a response.

But the impact that is felt in Lubbock shows the coming together of all types of communities around the country, Council said.

It should be an obligation for everyone to be both welcoming and accepting of the different types of individuals that live around others.

“It is powerful to come together,” she said, “and meaningful for many of us who needed that space.” @MichaelCantuDT

Flash floods overlooked, needs insight

By KODICHI NWANKWO Staff Writer

While much of the focus during severe weather is on tornadoes and hurricanes, something usually overlooked is flash flooding.

According to the National Weather Service, flash flooding is the leading cause of weather-related deaths in the U.S. with Texas being the state with the most deaths in the last 36 years.

In 2015, flash floods claimed 129 lives, 48 of those being in Texas.

Justin Weaver, meteorologist-in-charge at the National Weather Service Lubbock and an instructor in the

Department of Geosciences at Texas Tech, said people underestimate the force and power of water.

“It takes about two feet of water if it’s moving swiftly to wash away a car,” Weaver said.

“And that’s how most people are killed in flash flooding.”

Weaver said many of the flash flood deaths occur with people in their vehicle as they are swept down stream.

“This is a part of the state called flash flood alley which is the Texas Hill Country, San Antonio, Austin area,” Weaver said. “People get killed there all the time because they drive through little water crossings and think its just a small puddle

of water but they float away.”

Once they are in that water, Weaver said there is not much anybody can do for them as their cars might flip over or they drown.

The statistics of flash flooding may be surprising to some people, but Weaver explained news of flash flood is not on headlines as much as a tornado are.

“You wont see huge headlines because it is not like a tornado, which will kill over 100 people sometimes, but it is much more common,” Weaver said.

Weaver refers back to the nine soldiers who lost their lives in Fort Hood, when the medium truck they were

IN MEMORY

riding in overturned in a rain-swollen creek.

“Not exactly sure what happened and how it happened but it was a huge disaster from a flash flooding stand point,” he said.

While Lubbock does get flash floods, Weaver said the water does not flow a lot because Lubbock is generally flat.

Zach Flores, a junior Restaurant Hotel Institutional Management, from Dallas said he has experienced a dangerous situation when it comes to flash flooding.

“At the time, I was working at a retail store and we had to take some of our clothes to another location of

the store.” Flores said.

On their way to the other location, Flores said they were drenched as the car almost stopped from the impact of the flooded water.

“It was a really scary situation,” Flores said. “And I have learned to pay attention to the weather.”

Since tornadoes and flash floods are usually what happen in Texas, Weaver said people should always be prepared.

“One of the first ways to plan for a severe weather is by paying attention and developing a plan,” Weaver said.

It is important to have a plan with any weather condition, Weaver said, and they may include going to the

basement of your homes if it is a tornado, staying away from windows, staying inside small rooms like a closet and covering or protecting the head as blunt force to the head is usually what causes the most fatality.

However, if a person is out when it is flooded, weaver said, it is important to make sure the window of the car is down as it is a way of exit instead of being trapped in the car.

“The best way to prepare for a flood is to avoid it if you can,” Weaver said. @DailyToreador

Orlando mourns its dead; gunman may have been ‘homegrown’

MCKENZI MORRIS/The Daily Toreador

The flags in Memorial Circle were flown at half-mast on Monday in honor of the victims of the shooting at an Orlando night club. The mass shooting took place on Saturday night and was the deadliest in U.S. history with 49 people being killed.

For all your Tech news and sports

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Orlando mourned the 49 people slaughtered in the attack on a gay nightclub, as the White House and the FBI portrayed the killer Monday as an apparent “homegrown extremist” who espoused support for a jumble of often-conflicting Islamic organizations.

The last of the bodies were removed from the nightclub late Sunday, and vigils and makeshift memorials to the victims of the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history began to take shape as counterterrorism authorities delved into gunman Omar Mateen’s background and defended their handling of their previous contacts with him.

Wielding an AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and a handgun, Mateen, a 29-year-old American-born Muslim, opened fire at the crowded Pulse Orlando club early Sunday. He was killed in a gun battle with a SWAT team after police used explosives and a small armored vehicle to punch a hole in a wall and allow dozens of club-goers to escape, police said.

The tragedy shocked the nation and cast a pall over Orlando, known all around the globe as the home of Walt Disney World and other theme parks.

“We will not be defined by the act of a cowardly hater,” Mayor Buddy Dyer vowed.

FBI Director James Comey said the bureau is trying to determine whether Mateen had recently scouted Disney World as a potential targets,

as reported by People.com, which cited an unidentified federal law enforcement source.

“We’re still working through that,” Comey said.

Comey said that Mateen had “strong indications of radicalization” and was probably inspired by foreign terrorist organizations.

He said Mateen had three 911 conversations during the attack and not only pledged loyalty to the Islamic State but also expressed solidarity with the Tsarnaev brothers, who carried out the Boston Marathon bombing, and a suicide bomber who died on behalf of the al-Nusra front, a group at odds with the Islamic State.

A few years ago, Mateen also expressed support for both al-Qaida and Hezbollah, which is a bitter enemy of the Islamic State, Comey noted.

The FBI investigated Mateen for 10 months beginning in May 2013 over those remarks.

Comey said investigators introduced him to confidential sources, followed him and reviewed some of his communications, but Mateen claimed he made the remarks in anger because co-workers were teasing and discriminating against him because he was Muslim. The investigation was brought to a close.

The FBI also investigated him over his connection to the al-Nusra suicide bomber, but found no ties of any consequence, the FBI chief said.

As for whether the FBI

should have done anything differently, “so far the honest answer is, ‘I don’t think so,’” Comey said.

At the White House, President Barack Obama said there is no clear evidence so far that Mateen was directed by the Islamic State. He said Mateen was inspired by radical information over the internet, calling it another apparent example of “homegrown extremism.”

Meanwhile, a steady stream of people filed through a makeshift memorial about a mile from nightclub. It consisted of dozens of bouquets and candles.

Just after noon about 300 employees of Red Lobster — some in business suits, some in chef uniforms — paraded, walking two-by-two across the street to a park, each carrying a red or white carnation.

Counterterrorism experts have been warning in the past few years about the danger of so-called lone wolf attackers who act in sympathy with extremist groups like the Islamic State but are not directed by them.

Despite the 911 call from the club, Mateen’s intentions seemed to become murkier when his Afghan immigrant father suggested another motive: anti-gay hatred. The father said his son got angry a few months ago when he saw two men kissing in Miami.

Also, Mateen’s ex-wife attributed the violence to mental illness, saying he was bipolar and abusive toward her.

Florida police seek motive for killing of ‘The Voice’ singer ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Christina Grimmie was a vivacious, outgoing singer whose career was born on social media and propelled toward the big time by television. She didn’t consider herself a famous person, not like the judges on “The Voice,” where she competed, but she had a following that was as enthusiastic about her music as she was.

Kevin Loibl wasn’t like her.

While she was a YouTube star, he seemed to be a shadow of Grimmie’s online presence. He left little trace online.

The two apparently had no personal connection to one another until Friday night when police said Loibl traveled 100 miles from his home in St. Petersburg to an Orlando concert venue. There, he shot Grimmie as she was signing autographs for fans after performing. He then fatally shot himself after being tackled by Grimmie’s brother, Marcus.

Grimmie died several hours later early Saturday.

Millions of people, far more than those who loved her for her music, were shocked and saddened by her death.

“She was doing a meetand-greet, just signing autographs and selling merchandise. This white male approached her and opened fire, striking her,” Orlando Police Chief John Mina said Saturday at a news conference. “There is no indication that he knew her. We’re looking into that to try to find a motive for the crime.”

Orlando tragedy will yield no action B

efore 1964 the United States had a massive love affair with smoking cigarettes and using all types of other tobacco products. It wasn’t until after the Surgeon General’s report came out that people knew the dangers of smoking.

The U.S. government took expeditious action for regulation regarding cigarettes and after studies and hard evidence revealed how easy it was for young people to take up the habit, decisions were made to do all they could to stop the sales.

People cried out and hated the government, but what we have seen is a rapid decline of use and sales. I have even heard it said that my generation has the lowest number of smokers. The health epidemic that was smoking was taken down by a large margin and the world was able to breathe a sigh of relief – literally.

The point is: once we found out smoking was dangerous, we tried to put a stop to it and do something about it.

It was through research, hard facts and the knowledge that lives could be saved.

Once again we have seen the

ramification of what doing nothing does to our society.

A horrific act of terrorism has, once again, plagued us.

The more damning part of this atrocious exhibition of cowardly might is it happened on U.S. soil, in a place that is meant to be a haven for the disenfranchised. A gay nightclub of all places.

The shooting in Orlando, Florida that killed nearly 50 people was an infusion of violence that was able to culminate into one heinous act of crime that targeted – once again – innocent people who were victims of a world that was unable to comprehend indifference.

It was the combination of hatred, lack of regulation and a misunderstanding of religion.

What this transgression has proven is even in the year 2016, LGBTQ individuals are not safe and if rich, conservative white men are not affected nothing will be

done about the problem.

Because this happened in a gay nightclub there is even more residue of intolerance that was mixed into the toxic combination that led up to the night’s events.

I find it difficult to think about the fact that those people were unaware of what was going to happen that night. They all woke up, probably just like it would have been any other Saturday morning, without it even crossing their minds that they might not come home.

You must think about the story of the young man that has just come out as gay to himself and has gained enough confidence to join other individuals like him.

Or the seasoned veteran who has found a home in a place that can comfort him.

It hurts me to think they never made it home.

What is even more harrowing to think about it the fact that after today our government is only going to send tweets, thoughts, prayers and draw another line on the wall of incidents that have just about the same ingredient. All the while they are screaming the constitution allows guns, so nothing can

be done.

Those tweets and fake prayers do absolutely nothing, especially when you do nothing.

With each passing day the ignorance of the American spirit is showcased to the rest of the world as we hail worldly administrators of massive gun clubs who say more guns will feed into more peace. The puzzling part of their “good guy with a gun” character is he never seems to be where the massacres happen.

We need to do away with the protrusion of the argument that places with stricter gun laws do not have as much violence. That’s a complete lie and if that is the go to argument for keeping AR-15s around for children to use then you should be ashamed of yourself.

I know we are all tired of hearing the same arguments after contretemps like these, however it should not go away because this violence is going to keep happening.

We need to be concerned when a man who has been investigated by the FBI is able to get his hands, legally, on weapons that can take innocent lives of U.S. citizens.

We need not be concerned solely on his affiliations with Islam, but rather his affiliations with the Islamic State.

As I read from a friend, Islam has no affiliation with him, he has a menacing affiliation with Islam.

It is hatred that drove this. And hatred is going

These tweets and fake prayers do absolutely nothing, especially when you do nothing. to continually propel acts of violence like these until we stand up and decide to do something about the undemanding ways of obtaining such weapons to cause this violence.

In both houses of Congress, the majority of the ruling figures remain white, the U.S. House with 361 and Senate with 96. They don’t care that a Planned Parenthood has been attacked, they don’t care elementary school children are dead

and they damn sure do not care that a bunch of gay men are dead.

There is a wonderful part of the late comedian Richard Pryor’s act when he shows us the trials of a junkie crack-cocaine addict. He went on to say something along the lines of younger, rich white kids getting their hands on that stuff and the situation becoming an epidemic.

He then had a line similar to, “maybe when you see a black man with problems, you’ll help.” This applies to all U.S. minorities that face a problem similar to this.

It is the same result with a different circumstance now.

It is only minorities that are being attacked and because of that the government sees no need to castigate this situation – only to sit on their high horse and blame the victims for letting themselves be so vulnerable.

It is only a matter of time before this happens again, because God forbid we deny someone their right to kill another person who is different.

That is not a government that cares for its people. @MichaelCantuDT

Sanders’ hometown Lt Gov deletes bible proud of campaign tweet after shooting BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — People in this lakeside city that Bernie Sanders helped transform as mayor before embarking on a career in Congress are proud of the mark he’s left in the 2016 presidential race even as they recognize that his White House bid is almost certainly going to fall short.

The senator returned to Burlington, his hometown, after a week of major developments in the campaign: Hillary Clinton clinched the Democratic nomination, President Barack Obama

endorsed her after meeting with Sanders at the White House, and the party kept up efforts to ease Sanders from the race while trying not to offend his many supporters.

Sanders was largely staying out of public view this weekend, though he was booked on some Washingtonbased news shows on Sunday and his campaign spokesman, Michael Briggs, said Sanders and his wife, Jane, invited “a couple dozen key supporters and advisers from around the country to come to Burlington to share ideas.”

Managing Editor Michael Cantu

Briggs said he expected “a lot of thoughtful discussion among smart people and good friends.”

Sanders was expected to return to Washington for Tuesday’s primary in the District of Columbia, the final one on the nomination calendar. In an email Saturday to supporters, Sanders reminded them of their “chance to stand up and be heard.” His message ended: “I thank you for everything you’ve shared with me and all the support you’ve given our campaign. Now it’s time to bring it home on Tuesday.

Congressmen led racketeering spree PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A veteran congressman on trial in a racketeering case ran a “white-collar crime spree” that stretched from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C., a prosecutor told jurors Monday.

U.S. Rep. Chaka Fattah, an 11-term Democrat from Philadelphia, is accused of taking an illegal $1 million campaign loan from a friend to fund a failed 2007 mayoral bid and using a federal grant to repay most of it.

his family and friends.

Defense lawyers say the plots were hatched by two political consultants who have pleaded guilty in the case and testified against Fattah. They are scheduled to give their closing argument later in the day.

Fattah lost his bid for re-election in the April Democratic primary. His trial has been underway for about a month.

The $1 million loan for the mayoral campaign came from Albert Lord, the former CEO for Sallie Mae. Fattah had been the early favorite for the race, but his plan to fund the race with help from a few wealthy donors hit a snag over new campaign finance limits that Fattah unsuccessfully fought to overturn.

CONTINUED FROM PG. 1 Freshman left-hander Erikson Lanning started the game for Tech and shutout the Pirates through his seven innings, allowing only two hits. He struck out six batters during the game, a career high for the freshman.

Tadlock said the coaching staff did not make the decision to start Lanning until about 11 a.m. on Sunday, but knew that he would be ready to come out and fight because he had pitched in several big environments throughout the year.

“I was definitely excited (to get the start). That’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to be able to go out there and even participate in that game,” Lanning said. “I was definitely excited, but if you told me I wasn’t (the guy starting) I would have had complete confidence whoever was going out there at the same time.”

Tech struggled offensively in their second game of the super regional with only three runs on seven hits, but the bats came alive when they needed to and the team recorded 14 hits throughout the game on Sunday.

Tech started the game patient at the plate and loaded the bases on a walk and two singles. Senior outfielder Tyler Neslony was able to draw a walk to bring in the first

run of the game. Gutierrez came up to bat and started his day the same he ended it on Saturday – with a two-run RBI single to the left side.

The runs continued to come across for Tech, highlighted by Neslony and junior third baseman Hunter Hargrove each putting up two doubles during the day.

Tadlock said this is the best he has seen his offense do all post season, and Neslony said while his offensive performance was special, he was more focused on winning for the team.

“More importantly (than the offensive performance), I’m just glad we won,” Neslony said. “It was incredible being able to play here and getting to play with all my brothers, I loved every minute of it.”

Several of the current players were a part of Tadlock’s 2014 College World Series team and he said knowing what to expect and about all of the distractions they will face in the coming week will help the team move forward in the tournament.

Gutierrez agreed with Tadlock, saying their last journey to Omaha matured the team and helped them understand it takes 27 guys on the same page to compete and win. “ We k n o w, i t ’ s f i v e games,” Tadlock said. “You win five games you win the whole thing.” @DailyToreador

School record 10 baseball players drafted In the 2016 MLB FirstYear Player Draft this past weekend, 10 Texas Tech baseball players were selected.

This broke the school record for amount of players taken in a single draft, with the previous highest being nine.

Junior left right-handed pitcher Ryan Moseley was the first Red Raider to have his name called. He was selected in the eighth round, the 241 overall pick, by the Baltimore Orioles according to the MLB Draft Tracker website.

The Atlanta Braves draft-

ed senior left fielder Tyler Neslony in the ninth round with the 259 overall pick.

Junior right fielder Stephen Smith went to the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 10th round.

Junior left-handed pitcher Hayden Howard went to the Washington Nationals in the 12th round.

Junior left-handed pitcher Ty Damron went to the Oakland Athletics in the 15th round.

Robert Dugger, a junior right-handed pitcher, was

drafted by the Seattle Mariners in the 18th round.

Senior first baseman Eric Gutierrez was selected by the Miami Marlins in the 20th round.

Junior right-handed pitcher Chandler Eden went to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 25th round.

Dalton Brown, a senior right-handed pitcher, went to the Milwaukee Brewers in the 30th round, tying the previous school record.

In the 32nd round, senior center fielder Zach Davis was

drafted by the Chicago Cubs to make the 2016 Tech draft class the largest in school history.

The last three Red Raiders drafted were selected during the second game of their super regional against East Carolina, so coach Tim Tadlock said he did not know his group broke the school record but he could not be more proud of his team.

“You want them to be able to chase their dreams,” Tadlock said, “and they’re gonna get too.” @DailyToreador
