Border agency’s roving patrol tactics questioned AUSTIN (AP) — The Border Patrol’s practice of deploying agents and maintaining stations 100 or more miles from the U.S.-Mexico border is yielding fewer arrests each year, but the agency’s practice is still questioned by immigrants, lawyers and judges.

Border Patrol agents can stop and search vehicles without a warrant within 100 miles from the border, a line that the U.S. Department of Justice said in 1953 was a “reasonable distance,” The Austin American-Statesman reported. Between 2005 and 2013, the newspaper’s investigation shows, agents apprehended more than 40,000 people at nine of the inland Border Patrol stations, some located as far as 350 miles from Mexico.

But judges are throwing out some of the arrests because the reasons cited for stopping the suspects are as vague — including not waving or not making eye contact. And San Antonio immigration lawyer David Armendariz has argued in court documents that the stops target “Latino drivers in and around central Texas.”

Customs and Border Protection “does not tolerate racial profiling,” Border Patrol spokesman David Vera told the newspaper.

Roving agents made 1,459 arrests last year, down from 4,448 in 2010 and 9,234 in 2005, according to information the newspaper obtained through Freedom of Information requests. In many cases, the arrests occurred more than 100 miles from the border. However, vague directives and policies allow agents to extend their range of action.

Such roving patrols were agents’ main activity in places like San Angelo, about 130 miles from the border.

But in 2012, the agency proposed closing six interior stations, including San Angelo’s, and reassigning the agents closer to the border.

The quarterback with the most playing time in Saturday’s 34-13 loss to Texas was not sophomore Davis Webb. It was not true freshman Patrick Mahomes. It was Vincent Testaverde, Texas Tech’s true freshman, walk-on, third-string quarterback.

Mahomes started the game after Davis Webb was injured in last Saturday’s game against Texas Christian. After a big hit in the second quarter, Mahomes went to the locker room.

Senior Texas cornerback Quandre Diggs said the hit he put on Mahomes was clean, and it is the type of play that gets his team fired up. “(Mahomes) signed up to play football,” Diggs said. “Sometimes that happens.”

Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said Testaverde executed wel, and he was proud of the way Testaverde handled the moment.

“Obviously when you get to your thirdstring quarterback, (the offense) is going to get taken down a little bit,” Kingsbury said.

“I thought for the most part he handled himself well.”

Testaverde is the son of former Miami and NFL quarterback Vinny Testaverde, who was in attendance at the game, according to the Tech Athletics website. The elder Testaverde was awarded the Heisman trophy after the 1986 season.

Due to Testaverde’s lack of reps in practice and game experience, Kingsbury said, the offense had to change its strategy a little.

“With Testaverde, we huddled, which we’re not a huddle offense,” he said.

“Called him over to the sideline a bunch, and just wanted to give him that situation to be successful.”

Testaverde played part of the second quarter and the entire second half, and completed 15 of 26 passes with 116 total yards and one interception.

Tech junior running back DeAndre Washington said he had to step up after Mahomes went down with an injury.

Election day for Texas general elections will be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Tuesday at 36 voting locations in Lubbock County.

Voting is a right all Americans have, Kim Davis, spokesperson for Lubbock County Elections Office, said.

She encourages all students to get to know what is on the ballot, she said.

Every single vote does count and is an opportunity for each person’s voice to be heard, she said.

ADVERTISING: 806-742-3384

“I think it’s important for anybody who feels that they want to be a part of the democratic process to vote,” Davis said.

To be eligible to vote in Texas, an individual must be a United States citizen who is at least 18 years old on Election Day, according to the Texas Secretary of State’s website.

To learn about what is on the ballot, Davis said a sample ballot is available at the Lubbock County elections office website.

Voter identification law enforced during elections

By NICOLAS LOPEZ Staff Writer

With Election Day in Lubbock on Tuesday, citizens and students alike should understand Texas’ voter identification law before visiting the polls.

Senate Bill 14, which requires voters to present photo identification when voting in person, was passed by the Texas Legislature in May 2011 but was upheld when challenged in federal courts until 2013.

On June 25, 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down provisions in Section 4 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act by a

FAX: 806-742-2434

decision of 5-4.

This decision ended all pending litigation about Texas SB 14, allowing the voter ID law to go into effect.

Chief Justice John Roberts, according to a written statement after the decision, said the court’s decision has no effect on the nationwide ban on racial discrimination. However, the formula that selects states by reference to literacy tests and low voter registration in the 1960s and 1970s can no longer be used and is unconstitutional.

The gubernatorial candidates include Republican party candidate Greg Abbott, who is currently serving as Texas attorney general, Democratic party candidate Wendy Davis, Libertarian party candidate Kathie Glass and Green party candidate Brandon Parmer, according to the Texas Secretary of State’s website.

Attorney General Abbott is fighting for Texas families and values, according to the Abbott for Governor website. He has filed more than 30 lawsuits against the Obama administration, and the National Child Support Enforcement Association recognized his office as the nation’s best child support program in 2014.

Kate Ortopan, a junior English technical communications major from Temple, said she thinks oftentimes people think their voices are not being heard, but voting is a way to make a person’s voice heard.

“Ever since I was a little kid, when reading about women’s struggle with suffrage and everything, I thought it would be an insult not to vote, for their sake,” Ortopan said. “They fought for it and we should exercise it as much as possible.”

Krystauna Miller, a freshman biology major from Lubbock, said she has no interest in the general election and does not feel as if her vote is important.

Democratic party candidate Davis has chosen to invest in education by reducing standardized testing and increasing access to higher education, according to the Wendy Davis for Texas website.

“I do know that Wendy Davis is fantastic,” Justin Perkins, a junior microbiology major from Waco, said. “As far as the educational standards, I feel like she’d bring Texas to where it needs to be.”

Libertarian party candidate Kathie Glass said one main issue she is focusing on is the federal government that she thinks is out of control, and said

she is the only Texas Governor candidate who will enforce the Constitution.

“We are on the cusp of losing our country,” Glass said. “My husband and I and others are trying the best we can to reverse that, but we need everyone’s help, so that people your age can live your life in liberty the way we got to. To pursue things that matter to you, whether other people think it’s important or not, to live your life.”

Perkins said he voted in the last presidential election and does not like voting for one individual party.

“I usually don’t feel well educated enough on many issues to say that I like one candidate more than the other because I don’t like supporting one individual party,” he said.

The Green party candidate is Brandon Parmer. According to the Green Party of Texas website, candidates were approved by delegates to the state convention in Austin on April 12.

Ben Willingham, a sophomore microbiology major from Austin, said he believes it is a privilege to vote, but it is also time consuming and he has not had the time to educate himself on the candidates on the ballot.

“I haven’t educated myself enough to know what’s going on and who the candidates are, so I choose not to vote,” Willingham said.

Voting should always be a right and is essentially a privilege, Perkins said.

In 2011, Texas Legislature passed Senate Bill 14 requiring voters to show photo identification when voting in person, according to the Texas Secretary of State’s website.

Registered voters can vote at any of the 36 voting locations.

If an individual is a registered voter in the state of Texas but not in Lubbock County, they can still vote in Lubbock but will be voting provisionally.

Individuals interested in voting can text the zip code they are currently in to 75044 and the service will send the individual the three closest voting locations, Davis said.

WWW.DAILYTOREADOR.COM

Candidates for lieutenant governor are Republican party candidate Dan Patrick, Democratic party candidate Leticia Van de Putte, Libertarian party candidate Robert D. Butler and Green party candidate Chandrakantha Courtney, according to the website.

Texas State Senator Patrick is the chair of the Senate Education Committee and has also learned to build coalitions to pass over 100 pieces of legislation over four sessions, according to the Dan Patrick for Lieutenant Governor website.

Van de Putte felt compelled to run for lieutenant governor for her children, community and all Texas families, according to the Leticia van de Putte for Lt. Governor website.

According to the Robert Butler for Lieutenant Governor of Texas website, Butler believes in the sovereign power of the individual to have both the economic and personal freedom they need to decide the way to live their lives.

Courtney is a vocalist, composer and teacher of Indian music, according to her personal website, chandrakantha.com.

United States Senator candidates are Republican party candidate and current U.S. Senator from Texas John Cornyn, Democratic party candidate David M. Alameel, Libertarian party candidate Rebecca Paddock and Green party candidate Emily “Spicybrown” Sanchez, according to the website.

“Even if it’s just one vote, you’re doing something to change, so you obviously care about our country enough to take the time out of the day and vote,” Ortopan said.

The Daily Toreador was unable to reach Abbott, Davis or Parmer for comment.

Early voting locations include the Abernathy City Hall, the Texas Tech library, Wright Elementary School, Roosevelt Clubhouse, Lubbock-Cooper Performing Arts Center and Lubbock-Cooper North Elementary School, according to the Lubbock voting website. ➤➤jgonzales@dailytoreador.com GRAPHIC BY LUIS LERMA/The Daily Toreador

“Such a formula is an initial prerequisite to a determination that exceptional conditions still exist justifying such an extraordinary departure from the traditional course of relations between the states and the federal government,” Roberts said, according to the statement. “Our country has changed, and while any racial discrimination in voting is too much, Congress must ensure that the legislation it passes to remedy that problem speaks to current conditions.”

New York University School of Law’s Brennan Center for Justice, a nonpartisan law and policy institute, recently published four firsthand accounts alleging there is voter confusion in Texas as a result of the voter ID law.

With the new voter ID law, in order to vote, a person must present one of the following acceptable forms of identifications: Texas driver’s license, Texas Election Identification Certificate, Texas personal identification card, Texas concealed handgun license, U.S. military identification card with the person’s photograph, U.S. citizenship certificate with the person’s photograph or a U.S. passport.

Shreyas Salvi, a sophomore petroleum engineering major from Dallas, said he is in favor of the Texas voter identification law.

“I think it’s necessary for Texas citizens to give a valid ID when you’re getting your votes taken,” he said.

Juan Gonzalez, a sophomore petroleum engineering major from Dallas, said he also believes the voter identification law is constitutional and should be enforced.

“It’s important for every Texan who wants to vote to have an ID,” he said, “so they can show who they really are and not just be an illegal immigrant or someone else. So it will be fair.”

Kim Davis, spokesperson for the Lubbock County Elections Office, said that during early voting, the Texas voter ID law has not been a problem for Lubbock County.

“That’s been in place since summer of 2013 and we’ve had multiple elections since then,” she said. “It hasn’t been a problem for us anyway whatsoever.” ➤➤nlopez@dailytoreador.com

Business college supports local organization Staff Writer

The Jerry S. Rawls College of Business Administration hosted a softball game at 2 p.m. Friday at Rip Griffin Park to raise money for the Buckner Children’s Home of Lubbock.

Ashly Moncrief, associate director for global outreach, helped plan the game.

“Planning the event was complicated,” she said. “We had to work around the schedules of the faculty and everyone in between. Logistically it was complicated, but we managed to make it work.”

The two teams were composed of volunteers from the Rawls College of Business, and the faculty and staff team wore black while the student team wore red.

Admission for the game was free but donations were encouraged, and those who donated at least $20 received T-shirts.

“We chose Buckner because we wanted a Lubbock non-profit that supported local children,” Moncrief said. “That was really important to us. We wanted to

“I know some of the faculty and staff personally, so it will be really fun to brag about this later,” Latham said. “They were really sure they were going to beat us because they practiced more. It will be nice to kind of rub that in their faces, and they’re already saying they’ll win at next year’s game.”

Buckner also sponsors mission trips around the world, Latham said, and she has friends who have gone to Africa and Guatemala and enjoyed working with the nonprofit.

“We think we have the best faculty, staff and students on campus, and we wanted to show the Lubbock community that,” Moncrief said. “I encourage and almost challenge other colleges on campus to do fundraising for charity. I think Rawls set the bar high as far as a way to have a fun game for a good cause.” ➤➤jromero@dailytoreador.com

Hobbies, free time help relieve stress during school year I

t’s that time of year again when everyone is starting to get overly stressed with schoolwork and tests. There may be several tests in one week, papers due every day and assignments that need to be finished, too.

These times of the year are always the worst because sometimes it’s hard to feel like you ever have time for anything. It may seem like there is barely time to even breathe.

As much as it seems like you have to work non-stop to get everything done, that’s not always the case.

It may seem like there is no free time, but that may be just what you need.

During times of extreme stress, it can often be good to

Liana Solis have something to distract you every once in a while — not to a point where it gets in the way of all the school work, but a little distraction never hurt anyone.

Many of us were guilty of putting too much on our plate in high school — we ran for the school track team, starred in the school’s latest play production and played guitar for the church band all while still trying to make the grades to get into college.

It was a lot going on, but it kept us busy and kept us motivated to keep moving forward.

Many college students today have dropped extracurricular activities because they think there are not enough hours in the day to do anything else besides school.

However, taking a break from the overwhelming stress of college life can often be a good thing. Of course it is important to make good grades, but you don’t want to lose your mental health in the process by working too hard.

Making free time is an important part of staying sane in college. If you have something to help take away a little of that pressure, it will make things

seem easier.

It doesn’t have to be anything too big or too time consuming.

It can be as easy as turning on the TV every so often to watch something in order to get your mind off things.

Many students also choose to get a job, or sometimes even two, to help not only relieve the stress some but also to make some extra spending money.

This is also a great way to help get your mind off all the millions of things there is to do during the day.

This of course isn’t for everyone and could potentially cause greater stress on some rather than relieve it, but that is up to the person.

If you feel like you can handle

taking on a job and school, then go for it. It could help you in the long run.

Even picking up a hobby or going back to an old hobby you had in high school can help divert you from that pile of homework you have to do by the end of the week.

Join an intramural team, join one of the many clubs Texas Tech offers, go to the gym, go audition for a play.

The possibilities are endless as long as you have the passion and drive for it.

I am not saying you should put any of these things before school, because that is the main reason you are here in the first place.

However, if you do nothing but schoolwork and studying

your whole college career, it might be a less rewarding experience than you hoped for.

You can always make time for spending with friends or reading that book you have been wanting for read for ages. Balancing time is an art, and you just have to learn to be able to make everything balance just right.

You may think “Oh, well I really don’t have time to spare with all the stuff I have to do,” but there is always time. It is just a matter of finding the time and using it in the right way to help better yourself.

College of Human Sciences receives grant Ted Cruz gains Texas ally in Greg Abbott The College of Human Sciences will be offering a new class about retail trends Fall 2015 as a result of a grant from Cotton Incorporated.

Deborah Fowler, Texas Tech associate professor of retail management, will teach the new class.

The grant will not only fund this special class but also be used to purchase supplies and additional material to other retail management classes, she said.

This is the second year that Texas Tech has received this grant, according to a Tech news release.

Fowler said the area Tech is built in is the largest cotton patch

in the world and some students going through the retail program do not know very much about cotton.

Toward the end of the fall semester, the students will take a trip to Cotton Incorporated’s headquarters in New York City to see how the clothing industry affects cotton. Students will also attend the International Textile and Apparel Association Conference in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Both of these trips will be funded by the grant, she said.

Students will also analyze and predict where the industry is headed, according to the release.

During one of the assignments,

students must “pin” several photos to a Pinterest board to demonstrate how their pins relate to the material covered. This method and assignment is called forecasting.

Valerie Ahlavaty, a faculty member of retail management, said she and her husband are both cotton producers and she learned about the grant through an email. She informed Deborah Fowler and applied for the grant.

“This a graduate class that focuses on fashion trends,” Fowler said, “and if you are interested in the clothing industry this would be a great class to take.”

Kappa Alpha began its preparations for Kalf Fry about six months ago, Charlie Schoenherr, a senior interdisciplinary studies major from Bee Cave, said.

“We sort of start of with our contract we have with Don Caldwell at Caldwell Entertainment and a guy named Jason Adams who works with Roadhouse Tickets, and those two are the co-producers of it,” he said. “It takes about six months to get the bands booked, to get the money ready, venue organized, to get the kids organized, to show them how they’re supposed to do what they’re doing.”

The fraternity is in charge of all on campus promotion for the event, Schoenherr said.

On-campus promotion included ticket promotion, ticket sales and T-shirt sales, he said.

The money the fraternity raises at Kalf Fry, which is roughly 10 percent of total gross profit, goes to the Muscular Dystrophy

Members of Kappa Alpha volunteer their time to raise money for MDA, which is KA’s philanthropy, he said.

“There are three MDA families here and they come every year and we donate about $10,000,” Schoernherr said. “All the money that the fraternities make goes directly to MDA.”

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz may have presidential aspirations, but he sometimes felt more like a Secret Service agent while working for the man poised to become Texas’ next governor.

State Attorney General Greg Abbott would roll his wheelchair so fast inside the Texas Capitol that his staff had to chase after him.

“On that polished marble, he can get moving pretty fast,” recalled Cruz, who was state solicitor general for nearly six years under Abbott. “We’d put our fingers

to our ears like we were holding earpieces. And we’d joke about being like Clint Eastwood in ‘In the Line of Fire’ running alongside the presidential limo.”

The stakes have risen for Cruz and Abbott since they were colleagues and buddies in Austin. Cruz became a national tea party sensation by challenging the Republican establishment, even frequently clashing with his party’s bigwigs in the Lone Star state. Abbott, meanwhile, is heavily favored to beat Wendy Davis for the governor’s

office Tuesday, giving the firebrand senator a powerful ally back home.

Both insisted that their, big, bright Texas political stars won’t fray their friendship — even if Abbott moves to the middle to govern while Cruz continues to energize the GOP’s most-conservative wing ahead of a possible 2016 White House bid.

“I fully expect that he and I will continue to work together very closely because we share common principles,” Cruz told The Associated Press in a phone interview.

Results of space tourism rocket crash probe may take year MOJAVE, Calif. (AP) — Billionaire Richard Branson is promising to find out what caused the crash of his Virgin Galactic prototype space tourism rocket that killed a test pilot, but federal investigators are cautioning that it may take up to a year to learn exactly what went wrong.

The crash in the California desert almost certainly dashed Branson’s goal of starting suborbital flight next spring,

but the mogul said that while he remained committed to civilian space travel “we are not going to push on blindly.”

In grim remarks at the Mojave Air and Space Port, where the craft

known as SpaceShipTwo was under development, Branson gave no details of Friday’s accident and deferred to the NTSB, whose team began its first day of investigation Saturday.

I myself am not a smoker.

Being a transfer student has presented me with the opportunity to adapt to different surroundings through the course of attaining a college degree.

Among those surroundings was the freedom of walking among college campus grounds where smoking was prohibited. The sense of freedom and respect paid through those regulations were factors that constituted in the content and determined individual that I am today.

Everyone deserves that right and environment to flourish and grow as a college student.

Lighting up a cigarette is a custom that promises to make its mark among the years to come. Its stubborn roots have proven to be difficult to weed out completely by the masses that resort to the practice as a stress, nervousness and anxiety eliminator.

The deadly and negative results smoking brings leads to the rational proposal of banning completely such devastating practices among college grounds.

A

ccording to a recent article in The Daily Toreador, Lubbock City Council has considered a bill to ban smoking in public areas. The bill seems to be very vague on its demands and, if passed, could cause someone to be arrested for simply lighting a cigarette in the parking lot of a restaurant.

The bill proposing the banning of smoking in public areas for the safety of Lubbock residents sheds light on the idea of a campus ban on smoking. According to a recent article in The DT, there are 1,478 completely smoke-free campuses across the United States.

Many students feel Texas Tech should join the 1,478 smoke-free campuses, but I disagree. Tech allows students to smoke on campus as long as they’re 20 feet away from a building. This is a reasonable rule that allows smokers their daily intake, while also being courteous of the non-smokers around them.

Yet students still find reasons to complain about smoking on

campus. The overused complaint is secondhand smoke. News articles everywhere like to throw in statistics to try and prove the individuals smoking are harming those around them, but there are also statistics that show secondhand smoking has little to no effect on individuals.

According to a Forbes article, the National Cancer Institute found a study that concluded it is highly unlikely for someone who is briefly exposed to smoke, like in a restaurant or bar, to later be affected by cancer versus someone who is exposed to it on a daily basis.

Gerard Silvestri, member of the National Cancer Institute’s Screening and Prevention Board, said, “At low passive exposures the risk is not that great.”

Students also tend to complain about the smell of cigarettes and the harm it may do to individuals with allergies or asthma. I have a similar complaint about individuals who wear way too much perfume or cologne.

Sometimes the smell is so bad I get a stomach ache from just sitting next to them, but does this mean we should ban students from wearing perfumes or colognes? No, because by filling the needs of one or a few students, it is harming the needs or pleasures of other students.

Many students have transitioned from cigarettes to ecigarettes, which are supposed to present a “healthy” alternative, but students are banned from smoking them in dorms and buildings. How are students who

“

smoke supposed to be considerate of non-smokers if non-smokers are not being considerate of their needs?

I personally do not smoke, but I am not against individuals who do smoke. I don’t see smoke harming me any more than Ebola can, as both are being blown out of proportion.

I feel the same way about the bill attempting to ban smoking in bars and restaurants in Lubbock. The alcohol people go to bars to consume is just as toxic as smoking a cigarette. They should worry less about secondhand smoke and worry more about alcohol and the damage it can do to their bodies.

Smokers on campus are a community of people who share a common interest — smoking. If Tech were ever to ban smoking on campus, it would be turning away a whole community of students.

Students are not the only ones who take advantage of smoking on campus, but faculty and staff too. If Tech ever did ban smoking on campus, professors and students would have to leave campus just to smoke one cigarette.

Smoking may not be for everyone, but we still have to be considerate of those who choose to smoke. Banning smoking from campus would only cause students who do smoke to become outraged, and they would then retaliate against the ban. To guarantee equality among all students, smoking on campus needs to continue to be available.

If Tech ever did ban smoking on campus, professors and students would have to leave campus just to smoke one cigarette.

“

thing for those who are victims of the addictive practice.

“Employers are taking hard looks at the cost of employing smokers as they try to cut health insurance costs, with some refusing to hire people who say they smoke…figures on the cost of smoking have been rough estimates at best, with a very general estimate of $193 billion a year nationwide,” according to a NPR article.

Personally, I do not think this reality is fair to those who have undergone heavy sacrifice through their schooling. Is this discriminative toward those who smoke? No. This reality is a matter of business and of corporate prosperity.

“More hospitals and medical businesses in many states are adopting strict policies that make smoking a reason to turn away job applicants, saying they want to increase worker productivity, reduce health care costs and encourage healthier living,” according to a New York Times article. Placing a ban of smoking on campus will help those who are addicted to this vice take that first step toward quitting and being freed from such harmful ritual. Most importantly, banning smoking on campus will be one less door closed upon one’s hopes and dreams.

In addition, health hazards are reasons worth noting toward justifying the idea of roaming among a smoke-free campus.

Masses roll their eyes when the discussion of health effects pertaining to smoking comes to matter. Yes, smoking is indeed a personal choice, thus if you accept the bodily harm that smoking brings to your shortened life span, that is a matter of free choice.

What I cannot fathom is the selfishness that is dislodged through the spreading of secondhand smoking.

According to a Popular Science article, “USPHS has also reported that the death rate from coronary heart disease among cigarette smokers was almost two-thirds higher than the rate for non-smokers. In cigarette smokers the death rate from all causes was more than half as high as among nonsmokers.”

The harm done directly to a smoker is horrendous. Why hurt those who, under their free will, have abstained from a life of disease and unhappiness?

“

C

onflict and tension are commonalities that arise when controversial legislation is proposed. Particular parties tend to feel threatened when an idea is brought to surface; among these parties of conflict are those who fall under the smoking group. Lately, such audience has undergone considerable strain through the proposal of abolishing smoking citywide.

According to a previous article in The Daily Toreador, “the Lubbock City Council has considered legislation to ban smoking in public areas s u c h a s r e staurants and bars, citing a danger to public health, though a vote on the ban has been postponed.”

Under these circumstances, placing a citywide ban on smoking seems like a strenuous effort.

In order to eradicate the practice completely, the smoking ban needs to be initiated and put into effect at the college level.

Statistics show that the smoking practice is commonly embraced among groups of poverty and education.

“Smoking, as it happens, also appears to be highly correlated with poverty and education levels in the United States: 27.9 percent of American adults without a high school diploma are smokers. Only 9.1 percent of those with an undergraduate degree, and 5.9 percent of those with a graduate degree are smokers,” according to kottke.org.

Poverty itself is a long established world problem that acquires much more than a mere smoking ban. Such category is one that primarily acquires advocacy and a worldwide joint effort in adherence to those struggling to attain everyday necessitations the privileged take for granted. Education, on the other hand, is a category where introducing a smokingfree proposition onto campus is a righteous and reasonable idea, bringing with it more good than harm.

With competition on the rise for the “dream job,” most college students willingly participate in student organizations, internships and long hours of study in order to distinguish themselves among the hundreds who will also apply for the same job position after walking the stage. Sadly, all the sweat, blood and tears will not signify any-

Tech basketball hosts first 2014 exhibition game

By DIEGO GAYTAN

Storm finished the season with a 9-18 overall record and a 6-14 record in the Great American Conference.

The exhibition game acts as a showcase for fans to get a glimpse of Tech’s new players for its new season.

Tech enters its 2014-2015 season with its best recruiting class since 2004, according to a Tech news release.

Although the game does not affect Tech’s overall record, Smith said he can learn who on the team

Staff Writer

The Texas Tech men’s basketball team will host its first home game of the 2014-2015 season against Southeastern Oklahoma State Savage Storm.

The exhibition kicks off the second season for Tech coach Tubby Smith. Tech’s opponent for its first home game had a losing season in its 2013-2014 campaign. The Savage

works well together.

“What we’re trying to see is who plays well together,” Smith said.

“You try to recruit guys who fit what you try to do.”

Freshmen forwards Zach Smith, Justin Gray, Norense Odiase, freshman guard Keenan Davis, junior transfer guard Devaugntah Williams and junior transfer forward Justin Jameson make up the list of Tech’s new players.

Smith said although returning

players like senior guard Robert Turner and redshirt junior guard Toddrick Gotcher got the starting nod for the game against Southeastern, the remaining three starting spots continue to stay open for the rest of the Tech squad.

“There’s been a few guys who’ve stepped up. I think Toddrick and Rob because they started last year will start now,” Smith said. “Outside of that we could probably start anyone else in the other three positions.”

Wildcats overcome deficit to win conference match With a 2-0 set lead, the Texas Tech volleyball squad failed to obtain the final set to win against the Kansas State Wildcats Saturday in Ahearn Field House, according to a Tech Athletics new release.

Tech went up early against the Wildcats by taking the first set 25-23 and the second set 25-

17. The Red Raiders dropped the following two sets against the Wildcats, however, by a score of 25-23 and 30-28.

The Wildcats completed their three-set comeback win with a 15-7 fifth set victory.

Tech’s five-set loss to Kansas State marked the first time in the

2014 season the Red Raider squad lost a five-set match.

Junior outside hitter Jenna Allen recorded 25 kills against the Wildcats to lead the Tech offense, while junior middle blocker Brianna Grant and senior middle blocker Mikia Mills both led Tech’s defense in blocks recording

five each.

Tech’s loss to Kansas State moves them to a 15-7 overall record and 3-7 record in the Big 12 Conference.

Tech takes on Texas as its next opponent at 6 p.m. Wednesday in the United Supermarkets Arena. ➤➤dgaytan@dailytoreador.com

“There were a lot of personalbest times today,” Tech head coach Jon Murray said in the release.

“Both teams competed to the best of their ability. It was a great learning experience for this young group.”

The men’s team finished with a team score of 200 points, led by juniors Evans Tuitoek and Nick Ri-

Both the Texas Tech men’s and women’s cross-country teams finished in the bottom half Saturday when they competed in in the Big 12 Conference Championships, according to a news release from Tech Athletics.

The men’s team placed seventh overall and the women took ninth at the championships, which took place in Lawrence, Kansas,

vera, according to the release, who finished 36th and 44th respectively in the 8,000-meter race.

Freshmen Ebenether Wondaferew and Miguel Bautista also finished in the top 55 at 51st and 52nd, respectively.

The women’s team was led by senior Sharlene Nickle, who finished 19th in the 6,000-meter race, according to the release, and sopho-

more Jocelyn Caro, who ended the race in 26th place.

Overall, the Lady Raiders finished in ninth place with a score of 2,012.

Carson Palmer, Cardinals beat Weeden-led Cowboys 28-17 straight 100-yard games to start the season for Dallas ended against a defense that didn’t allow a back over the century mark for the 18th consecutive time. He rushed for 79 yards on 19 carries.

Palmer put his team in a 7-0 hole when undrafted Dallas rookie Tyler Patmon ducked under a route, made an over-the-head catch and ran untouched down the Arizona sideline, with some nice blocking help from defensive end Anthony Spencer.

But that was his only mistake.

He finished 22 of 34 for 249 yards with touchdowns of 7 yards to John Carlson, 11 to Jaron Brown and 1 to Andre Ellington.

All three TDs came on third down as the Cardinals went 9 of 15 on third down. Palmer, who missed three games with a shoulder injury, improved to 5-0 and has won 12 of his past 14 starts.

Ellington outgained Murray on

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — While Carson Palmer remained perfect this season as Arizona’s starting quarterback, the Dallas Cowboys learned that life without Tony Romo might be a little rough.

Palmer had three touchdown passes after an early interception the Cowboys returned for a score, and the Dallas offense struggled without the injured Romo in a 28-17 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.

The Cardinals (7-1), who have sole possession of the best record in the NFC this late in the season for the first time since 1974, won their fourth straight. They have beaten all five conference opponents.

Romo was out with his third back injury in 18 months, and backup Brandon Weeden threw two interceptions as the Cowboys (6-3) dropped their second straight after a six-game winning streak.

NFL rushing leader DeMarco Murray’s record streak of eight

the ground with 95 yards and added another 39 receiving.

Romo was relegated to headsetwearing sideline duty with what is reportedly the same injury that kept Baylor’s Bryce Petty out for a game earlier this season. It’s described as fractures of two small bones in the back, and is unrelated to a herniated disk sustained last year, and to offseason surgery to remove a cyst in 2013.

Now the question is whether Romo makes the long trip to London for next weekend’s game against Jacksonville before the Cowboys have their bye. If Sunday’s results are any indication, Romo will be on that flight Monday.

Weeden, who left Cleveland when the Browns gave up on him just two seasons after drafting him in the first round, was off-target and out of sync with his receivers most of the game. The first completion to a wideout didn’t come until the

third quarter, and it was to Cole Beasley.

His first interception, by Tyrann Mathieu, came with Dallas in scoring range early in the second half.

The second wiped out any hope of a comeback by the Cowboys when Antonio Cromartie stepped in front of Terrance Williams after the Cardinals had gone up 21-10 in the fourth quarter.

Weeden was sure trying to get the ball to Dez Bryant, targeting his old Oklahoma State teammate repeatedly without success until two late catches, including a 3-yard touchdown, with the outcome already decided.

The Dallas running game wasn’t quite the same without Romo, either. Murray was stuffed well short on a fourth-down try from the Cardinals 34 with 9:36 remaining, and Palmer led a drive the other way for a 21-10 lead on Ellington’s scoring catch.

In his first season coaching the Red Raiders, Smith finished the season with a 14-18 overall record and a 6-12 record in the Big 12 Conference. Despite Tech’s losing record, it defeated nationally ranked teams Baylor and Oklahoma State.

Williams said he expects to see how the team’s work in practice can translate to real game situations.

“We’re trying to see how far we came since practice started,” Williams said. “We’re going to go out

there and execute and get a win.”

Turner said he has new responsibilities as a second-year player under Smith’s tenure.

“I played a lot last year so therefore there’s a leadership responsibility on my part,” Turner said. “Being comfortable here and knowing his system is really big for me.”

Tip-off is at 7 p.m. today in the United Supermarkets Arena and admission is free. ➤➤dgaytan@dailytoreador.com

Sanchez helps Eagles over Texans, 31-21 HOUSTON (AP) — After nearly two years on the bench, Mark Sanchez replaced an injured Nick Foles, overcame turnovers and did enough to keep the Eagles in first place.

Foles hurt his left shoulder late in the first quarter, and Sanchez came on to threw for 202 yards and two touchdowns to lead Philadelphia to a 31-21 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday.

Sanchez, who also threw two interceptions, missed all of last season after tearing the labrum in his right shoulder in the preseason. He last played on Dec. 30, 2012 with the New York Jets.

The Eagles (6-2) led by 3 when Jeremy Maclin grabbed a low throw from Sanchez for an 8-yard touchdown to make it 31-21 with about four minutes remaining.

Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for 203 yards with two touchdowns and an interception for Houston (4-5).

Maclin finished with two touchdowns and 158 yards receiving and LeSean McCoy had 117 yards rushing.

It was the second straight big game for Maclin, who had a careerhigh 187 yards receiving last week.

Maclin missed all of last season after a second ACL surgery. His 59-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter on Sunday was his third TD of 50 yards or longer this season.

The Eagles were up by 10 and driving late in the third quarter when Jumal Rolle grabbed his second interception of the game.

DeMeco Ryans intercepted Fitzpatrick at the Philadelphia 10, but he hurt his ankle on the play and fumbled the ball as he fell to the ground. DeAndre Hopkins recovered for Houston and scored on a 7-yard reception two plays later to cut the lead to 24-21.

Top overall pick Jadeveon Clowney (illness) and linebacker Brian Cushing (knee) were inactive for the Texans and they lost starting cornerbacks Johnathan Joseph (concussion) and Kareem Jackson (knee) to injuries in the first quarter.

QB Ryan Tannehill leads Dolphins to 37-0 shutout of San Diego MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — With his Miami Dolphins leading by 27 points in the third quarter, coach Joe Philbin stomped along the sideline, angrily waving his fist and screaming in disagreement with an official’s ruling.

At the end of an emotional week, Philbin wasn’t ready to let up.

The Dolphins channeled their coach’s

intensity with impressive results Sunday.

Ryan Tannehill threw for 288 yards and three scores, and Miami forced four turnovers to rout the San Diego Chargers 37-0.

Philbin missed two days of practice leading up to the game to be with his father, who died Friday in Massachusetts.

Following a moment of silence for the

elder Philbin before kickoff, the Dolphins won one for their third-year coach, whose iffy job security has been bolstered by recent results.

The Dolphins (5-3) earned their third consecutive victory as they began a stretch of four games in a row against playoff contenders.

The Chargers (5-4) lost their third

Lone star loss

Red Raiders drop sixth straight matchup with Longhorns

By EVERETT CORDER SportS Editor

Texas Tech wide receiver Bradley Marquez played his last game against Texas Saturday night, and like all of the other seniors on the Red Raider roster, he will graduate without ever having beaten the rival Longhorns.

Tech’s last win against Texas came in 2008, and the 2014 Longhorns kept the streak alive with a 34-13 victory over the Red Raiders Saturday night.

Marquez said it is frustrating to continue losing a game that means so much in the state of Texas, but the team is going to keep fighting throughout the last three games of the season.

“It is what it is, and we’ve just got to continue to go out there and finish this season out the way we want to finish it,” he said. “We can’t just give up and let this season be the way it is.”

After forcing the Red Raiders to a three and out on their first drive, the Longhorns drove down and kicked a field goal for their first score of the game.

Tech and Texas traded punts back and forth after that until Red Raider junior punter Taylor Symmank pinned the Longhorns back at their own 15yard line.

On the first play of Texas’ ensuing drive, freshman quarterback Tyrone Swoopes was sacked and fumbled the ball into the end zone where Tech senior defensive end Branden Jackson recovered it for the Red Raiders’ first touchdown of the game.

Jackson’s fumble recovery was the first defensive touchdown for Tech since

“It’s always nice on defense when you get to get into the end zone. It doesn’t happen very often,” Jackson said. “We knew we were going to have to make some plays on defense to help our offense out with Davis (Webb) be-

We were just happy we were able to help them.”

Tech senior kicker Ryan Bustin missed the extra point following Jackson’s touchdown, and after the Red Raider defense forced Texas to punt once again, Bustin missed a 29-yard field goal that would have put Tech up 9-3.

Bustin has only missed four extra points in his career at Tech, and coach Kliff Kingsbury said he is still confident in the kicker’s ability.

“I think we had a chance to finish that drive that we missed the field goal, didn’t make a play down there in the end zone, and then the extra point.

He’s just got to hit it,” Kingsbury said.

“He’s been a good kicker for us for a long time, and he’ll get back.”

Texas junior kicker Nick Rose returned the favor by missing a field goal on the Longhorns ensuing drive and then Tech and Texas each punted once before the Red Raiders took their

biggest hit of the night.

With a little more than nine minutes left in the first half, Tech true freshman quarterback Patrick Mahomes faked a handoff and then ran out of the pocket where he took a violent hit from Texas senior cornerback Quandre Diggs and fumbled the ball.

The Longhorns recovered, and Mahomes did not return throughout the rest of the game due to a head injury.

The third-string quarterback who replaced Mahomes was true freshman walk-on Vincent Testaverde Jr., who had not taken any in-game snaps prior to Saturday.

Marquez said Testaverde played well considering the circumstances, but the wide receivers did have to adjust some to his style of play.

“I’m pretty sure he probably wasn’t expecting to go in there and he doesn’t get a lot of reps at practice and this week is probably the most he got all year.” Marquez said. “He went in there, never showed he was scared and led us down there and got in the end zone

pretty much the first time he was in.”

Testaverde’s first touchdown drive of his career would end up being the Red Raiders’ last of the game.

The lack of offensive production, however, gave Symmank, who was recently named to the Ray Guy Award watch list for the best punter nationally each year, a time to shine.

Symmank punted eight times in the game with a long of 49 yards and an average of 41 yards per punt.

The Red Raiders will not face an opponent for two weeks as they take their second and final bye this week before the Nov. 15 game against Oklahoma at Jones AT&T Stadium.

Tech junior running back DeAndre Washington said the bye week will give the Red Raiders some good time to regroup and prepapre for the final leg of the season.

“At this point of the year,” Washington said, “how things have been going, it couldn’t have came at a better point in time.” ➤➤sports@dailytoreador.com

“Going into a season you never think you’ll be down to your third quarterback,” Washington said. “I knew it was just another opportunity for me, and I just was trying to do whatever I could to spark the offense.”

Washington finished the game with 97 yards on 16 rushes and averaged 6.1 yards per carry.

Testaverde came in ready to lead, Washington said, and the offense just had to adjust.

“I think it definitely changes (the offense),” he said. “It’s the game adjustments, and that’s what we had to do tonight, make an adjustment.”

Texas coach Charlie Strong said once Testaverde came in, the defense had to adjust to more of a rushing attack.

“We knew it would turn into a run game and a screen game,” Strong said, “and that’s what they did to us, and we just didn’t do a good job.”

Texas sophomore quarterback Tyrone Swoopes played the entire game for the Longhorns, and completed 13 of 25 passes with 228 yards, and one lost fumble that was returned for a touchdown.

With a third-string quarterback in the game, the Tech defense knew they had to step up, Tech junior linebacker Micah Awe said.

“Honestly, the game of football is always on the defense,” Awe said. “If we’re out there and we have the fourth-string, fifth-string quarterback, what does it matter to us? We’re still out there playing defense, so we have to do our best to not make the other team score.”

Tech now has a bye week before it faces Oklahoma at Jones AT&T Stadium Nov. 15, according to the Tech Athletics website.

Washington said the bye week could not have come at a better time.

The team will work hard through the bye week and get in a bunch of reps, Kingsbury said, and be ready to play for senior night regardless of who the quarterback will be.

“We’ll try to improve and come back,” Kingsbury said, “but they owe it to those seniors to play their best game when we play here against OU.” ➤➤sports@dailytoreador.com
