Vols bark weaker than bite, 51-44 Rob Davis Assistant Arts and Culture Editor

Derek Dooley talks with running back Rajion Neal during the UGA game on Sept. 29.

Lecturer addresses environmental, ecosystem issues Mollie Swayne Contributor Dr. David Ostermeier gave cause both to worry and to hope in his lecture, “Governing the Environment in Complex Times: Facing our Reality,” on Friday.

The presentation was part of the UT Science Forum. Ostermeier, professor in the Forestry, Wildlife and Fisheries department, divided his lecture into two parts, the first of which addressed the challenges facing our planet.

Ostermeier began his lecture addressing population growth and stating the need for change and efficiency if the planet is to feed a population of 9 billion people, a number he says will be our reality in the next 30 years.

He also addressed related problems concerning land and water usage.

Ostermeier said that approximately 35 to 40 percent of ice-free land on Earth is “wrapped up” in agriculture and 70 percent of water use on a global level is for irrigation.

“If the recent economic growth in developing countries continues, and that’s somewhere around a three percent annual growth,” Ostermeier said, “then we’re going to need to increase food production by about 70 percent.”

With an increasing global population, even more land will be needed to produce food, meaning there will be

less forested land, which not only harms the forest itself but has ripple effects though the environment, such as habitat destruction. As for the usage of water, Ostermeier said that seven major rivers, including the Colorado River and the Ganges in India, are already running dry.

Ostermeier also discussed the challenge of ecosystem services, which he defined as “services to mankind and to natural systems” that fall into one of four categories: supporting, provisioning, regulating and cultural.

He spoke of the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, involving several hundred scientists and multiple countries in an effort to ascertain the “condition of the ecosystems and the ecosystem services of the globe.”

The assessment sorted things such as carbon sequestration and air quality regulation into three categories depending on the condition of their performance: enhanced, degraded or mixed. The majority of items were considered “degraded.” The challenge of environmental stewardship stems from the lack of “market reward,” or profitability, to regulate the relationship between ecosystems, the commodities we get from the ecosystems, and mechanisms overseeing them.

Despite their best efforts, the Volunteers fell to No. 5 Georgia, 51-44, in front of a raucous crowd of more than 90,000 between the hedges.

Tennessee (3-2, 0-2 SEC) had several opportunities to tie the game in the fourth quarter, but Georgia’s defense proved to be too much.

“You have to give a lot of credit to Georgia. They are a great football team and a heck of an offensive football team,” head coach Derek Dooley said. “I am proud of this team for fighting. I think we showed that we have some resilience in this ball team, but we have a lot of work to do on both sides of the ball. We are leaving here a better team than when we got here.”

Georgia (5-0, 3-0 SEC) jumped out to an early 21-10 lead in the first quarter, but a 1-yard A.J. Johnson rush and two touchdown passes by Tyler Bray sent Tennessee into the locker room tied with the Bulldogs at 30.

Two touchdown passes from quarterback Aaron Murray and a 72-yard run from running back Keith Marshall gave Georgia the lead, 51-37, at the end of the third quarter.

“We are better in a lot of areas, but we have to shore up the run defense. Georgia is a great running team but we are a lot better than what we showed out there today,” Dooley said. “It was frustrating.”

The Tennessee running game, which has come under scrutiny in this season, amassed 197 yards and accounted for three of the five Volunteer touchdowns.

Rajion Neal was the Volunteers’ leading rusher with

Scholar discusses health crises Claire Dodson Staff Writer Dr. Frederick Burkle of Harvard University spoke Thursday at the Baker Center on future humanitarian crises related to public health.

“Everything is globalized now,” Burkle, part of the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative, said. “The ‘them’ and ‘us’ lines have been blurred, and we now we must come up with global solutions to our problems.”

Burkle’s talk was sponsored by the Global Nursing Program in UT’s Department of Public Health. Susan Speraw, the director of the Global Nursing Program at UT, met Burkle at a conference, and they became great friends. He first spoke at UT five years ago.

“He has been such a tremendous asset to our program,” Speraw said. “He meets with the students and offers valuable insight into humanitarian issues.”

In his talk, Burkle outlined some public health crises that he thinks the college-age generation will face in the coming years, including conflict, biodiversity crises, rapid unsustainable urbanization and climate change.

“The public health infrastructure of water, food, electricity and medical care collapses in the first ten days to two weeks of a conflict,” Burkle said. “If we take the protective lid off, we get a lot of problems.”

One of these problems is civilian deaths.

In Sudan between 1983 and 2002, two million people died. Only 3 percent of these were battle-related.

“There really is no such thing as ‘post conflict,’” Burkle said. “The conflict stays because weaponry and intimidation remain, the ecosystem is unrestored and infectious disease is rampant and not monitored.”

He added that 47 percent of countries return to conflict within ten years; this number rises to 60 percent or more in Africa, a fact that is largely due to the famine, crime and poverty that often arise during war.

However, Burkle emphasized that health alone doesn’t have the answer.

“The solution lies in multidisciplinary research,” Burkle said. “We need economists, anthropologists, doctors, scientists.

No one subject can solve all of the world’s

104 yards and scored Tennessee’s sole touchdown in the fourth quarter, which whittled Georgia’s lead to seven at 51-44.

“It is like Coach Graham has been saying, it will just keep coming with time,” Neal said. “We are going to keep working to get better and better every week, as long as we keep taking care of ourselves. I feel like we can keep growing.”

After Neal’s touchdown, the Volunteer defense made four stops and allowed the Bray-led offense three more opportunities to tie up the game.

Bray finished the game with two touchdowns, 281 passing yards, but also managed to rack up three interceptions.

Despite stringing together three great drives, as the fourth quarter ticked away Bray threw two interceptions and fumbled the ball on a drive that would have potentially tied the game and could have forced overtime.

“I was trying to force (throws), just trying to do too much,” Bray said. “I talked with (offensive coordinator Jim) Chaney and he said I was trying to do too much and I should just let the game come to me. I do not need to win it, I need to let the team win it.”

Next week, the Vols will have their bye week and will have the opportunity to rest up for a tough stretch, which includes a home game against No. 1 Alabama and two away games against No. 20 Mississippi State and No. 6 South Carolina.

“We win and lose as a team. We had a lot of mistakes in all three phases (of the game),” he said. “We had a chance to win it there at the end on offense and we did not get it done.”

problems.”

Burkle also stressed the need for humanitarian aid.

“People have a right to humanitarian assistance, and we have a duty to provide this assistance,” Burkle said.

“Unfortunately, many other countries see humanitarian aid as a pretext for occupation or an alibi for western domination.”

The importance of these issues to current teens and young adults was also a relevant part of his discussion.

“Your generation knows that your productive years will be spent in a globalized world,” Burkle said. “You all have a part in this.”

Speraw agrees with Burkle and uses

some of these ideas in the way she runs the Global Nursing Program at UT. “My purpose for this program is to train nurses and members of other disciplines who want to be leaders in global health disasters,” Speraw said. “Everyone has a voice, and we work together to solve various problems.”

Speraw also sees global knowledge as playing an important role in educating UT students.

“Part of UT’s ‘Ready for the World’ campaign is that we as educators have an obligation to prepare students to be tomorrow’s leaders,” Speraw said. “We want to teach them how to interact in global situations and respect different opinions.”

1890 — Yosemite National Park established

A.J. Hall • The Daily Beacon

“Davy Crockett” waves the UT flag at Sanford Stadium in Athens on Sept. 29.

On this day in 1890, an act of Congress creates Yosemite National Park, home of such natural wonders as Half Dome and the giant sequoia trees. Environmental trailblazer John Muir (1838-1914) and his colleagues campaigned for the congressional action, which was signed into law by President Benjamin Harrison and paved the way for generations of hikers, campers and nature lovers, along with countless “Don’t Feed the Bears” signs.

Native Americans were the main residents of the Yosemite Valley, located in California’s Sierra Nevada mountain range, until the 1849 gold rush brought thousands of non-Indian miners and settlers to the region. Tourists and damage to Yosemite Valley’s ecosystem followed. In 1864, to ward off further commercial exploitation, conservationists convinced President Abraham Lincoln to declare Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove of giant sequoias a public trust of California. This marked the first time the U.S. government protected land for public enjoyment and it laid the foundation for the establishment of the national and state park systems. Yellowstone became America’s first national park in 1872.

In 1889, John Muir discovered that the vast meadows surrounding Yosemite Valley, which lacked government protection, were being overrun and destroyed by domestic sheep grazing.

Muir and Robert Underwood Johnson, a fellow environmentalist and influential magazine editor, lobbied for national park status for the large

wilderness area around Yosemite Valley. On October 1 of the following year, Congress set aside over 1,500 square miles of land (about the size of Rhode Island) for what would become Yosemite National Park, America’s third national park. In 1906, the state-controlled Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove came under federal jurisdiction with the rest of the park.

1987 — Earthquake rocks Southern California An earthquake in Whittier, California, kills 6 people and injures 100 more on this day in 1987. The quake was the largest to hit Southern California since 1971, but not nearly as damaging as the Northridge quake that would devastate parts of Los Angeles seven years later.

Whittier is a small town south of Los Angeles best known as President Richard Nixon’s hometown. At 7:42 a.m. on October 1, a 6.1-magnitude earthquake jolted Whittier and the surrounding area for a full 30 seconds, violently shaking people out of their beds and causing unsecured items to crash to the floors in homes throughout the region. Several fires were ignited when gas lines were severed by the earth’s movement. Falling debris killed six people and the earthquake caused the area’s major highways to be shut down. Despite the strong tremors, there were no major building collapses.

College of Nursing awarded multi-million dollar grants Staff Reports The College of Nursing is receiving $2.5 million in grants to care for the underserved at a Knox County school clinic while gaining invaluable learning experiences.

The two grants from Human Resources Services Administration in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services are a million dollars more than the college’s research funding total for fiscal year 2012.

Both grants will benefit children at Vine School Health Center—and eight other schools linked to the center by telehealth connections—through the promotion of interprofessional care and real world training for students. Telehealth is the use of digital technologies to deliver medical care, health education and public health services by connecting multiple users in separate locations.

“These grants will propel our efforts to train health and other professionals together to improve access to holistic health and wellness services for children in our communities,” said Dean Victoria Niederhauser.

The first grant, about a million dollars over three years, will leverage telehealth technology to deliver improved health care to patients who have limited access. The funding will establish UT’s first “interprofessional education” effort for advanced nursing education by allowing graduate students in nursing, medical, pharmacy and industrial engineering to learn together in simulated and patient care clinical environments.

“This funding creates a unique opportunity for students studying in these four professional fields to work together,” said Peggy Pierce, project director and nursing assistant professor. “The industrial engineering students are an especially unique component in this program in which they

will work with the health professions students to evaluate factors influencing the safety and quality of care and bring expertise in documenting and analyzing the processes in simulated and real-life scenarios.”

All students will undergo intensive eight-week rotations involving web-based and face-to-face team education, simulations and telehealth teambased clinical education in delivery of care at school-based clinics.

Pierce noted that using online and distance education with interprofessional teams will allow students to engage in the learning process with one another, even when schedules make it difficult. A total of 168 students are expected to participate over the three years.

The second grant, totaling about $1.5 million over three years, will allow students to work with nurses, social workers, and special education teachers at Vine School Health Center. The collaboration will improve holistic care for children and their families served by the center.

“This is a wonderful opportunity to enhance care for our patients as our nurses develop skills to work with other professionals in the clinic,” said Nan Gaylord, project director and nursing associate professor. “It also allows our students to improve their ability to communicate in an interprofessional practice and to solve complex clinical, educational and psychosocial problems.”

The long-term goal of this project is to establish a collaborative practice environment for underserved children and families at the clinic.

“It is critical for our health professionals to be educated in delivering patient-centered care as members of an interdisciplinary team,” Niederhauser said. “This effort allows us to emphasize evidence-based practice and quality improvement approaches to produce the best health professionals possible.

Environmental governance is being attempted closer to home as well. The Cumberland Plateau is rich from a biodiversity standpoint, but many of its species are threatened or endangered.

According to their website, The Cumberland Habitat Conservation Plan is a network of many groups working together to “conserve the forests and waters of the Cumberlands of Tennessee and provide for continued economic growth in the region.”

Eric McAnly, senior in chem-

istry, found the lecture engaging.

McAnly was especially interested in the policy side.

“I think he brought up good points about deforestation relating to erosion,” McAnly said, “specifically in the South American countries with large dams.”

Campaign financing hits new peak Dear Editor: In the midst of this political season, I am disappointingly struck by the tremendous amount of money being spent on two presidential campaigns and other federal, state, and local campaigns. I believe this saddens not only me, but tens of millions of Americans.

Viewing this tremendous amount of money being spent by so few people seeking political office, I feel driven to write this letter.

Considering how most of the salaries for these political offices pale in comparison to the money spent to gain these offices, I truly believe that most Americans have taken off their blinders to realize just how much underhandedness and corruption exists in all levels of our government. Americans are no longer idealistic or faithful about our government officials being pure and willing to go all out to

help each and every citizen regardless of financial status. There can be no doubt that money buys access to government policies, and therefore campaign contributions are, in actuality, investments in rich and powerful peoples’ futures!

Is there any wonder why so many voters don’t bother to vote? Are my views cynical or truth? Can American government, at all levels, be guilty of some of the biggest white collar crimes on Earth? Just some questions to ponder during this political season.

Julia Ross On September 12th, the Issues Committee brought Harlan Cohen, author of “The Naked Roommate,” to campus. He offered humorous suggestions for students navigating romantic relationships in college. He also played funny little ditties on his guitar. There were less than seventy-five students in the audience. A week ago today, Mr. Bill Purcell, former mayor of Nashville, spoke at The Baker Center on the future of American cities. Former Knoxville mayor Victor Ashe and Madeline Rogero, the current mayor, were both in attendance, along with a solid handful of distinguished faculty members. There were less than ten students in the audience. Chances are, you are not surprised to hear either of those numbers.

There are a few legitimate excuses for a student to miss an event. Attending an evening class certainly should take priority. Attending a meeting for a student organization in which you are an officer, a practice for any sort of competitive team, or going to work takes priority.

Preparing for a major test or other academic assessment takes priority. Taking a nap, friends, does not take priority. Missing out on something interesting because you didn’t know about it or because you didn’t have anyone to go with you is also entirely illegitimate. There is little use in attending a large state university if you do not participate in the special events that its size, prestige, and available funding offer. If the only thing you are doing for your education is attending class, you are not doing enough. Get up, get dressed, speak properly and listen closely, because learning is not limited to the classroom, and it is time to get aggressive about finding it

elsewhere.

Attending every event on campus is impossible, and, thankfully, unnecessary.

However, a student who is seeking to beat the system, to exceed expectations, or to emerge from college with a job offer should make an effort to know what is going on across campus, every week. This is as simple as checking the university calendar at the beginning of each month and ensuring that you are on the listserv for your department. An even easier way to hear about events is to actually read that “Student@Tennessee” newsletter email. Even though it is written in hideous type, it is densely packed with valuable information and taking three minutes to skim it while waiting for class to start on Monday will be entirely worth your time.

It might be harder to convince you that attending a guest speaker instead of taking a nap or getting started on homework is worth your time. However, many of you will likely agree that you learn best when a professor uses examples that are relevant to your daily life. Furthermore, many of you may often find yourselves frustrated that your courses are narrowly focused and that your education here is strictly departmentallybased. In this regard, guest speakers are the best teachers. They generally bring new knowledge on relevant topics from a more interdisciplinary viewpoint than a class lecture does. Additionally, people who you want to get to know in your department, student leaders you might want mingle with, and community leaders who might want to hire you attend these events. Introducing yourself over Aramark cookies first will make a late email ten times less awkward, I promise.

Finally, these years may be the only time you will have this many opportunities available to you without charge. To beat the system, you must take advantage of them.

Sometimes, it is incredibly easy to forget how many people are paying attention to you.

No, I’m not talking about some government conspiracy or anything of that nature. I mean real, actual people who care about what is going on in your life. People like your parents, younger siblings, your aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, best friends from elementary school, acquaintances from high school—chances are, they are paying attention. When something happens that isn’t pleasant to hear about, not only to you, but to organizations you are linked with, that news will spread and your image won’t be so pristine anymore. It’s really quite embarrassing.

There are just some things that I don’t want my name, my lifestyle, my career, or even my university linked to. Every choice we make in our lives adds up. Each situation puts us in a new direction, with new stigmas and labels attached to us. No matter how hard we try to fight those stereotypes, they will follow us. It is just simply human nature to categorize people, places, and things so that we can quickly and easily understand them.

I don’t like knowing that my young nephews and niece could possibly come across a newspaper and read any of the headlines that were related to this university from the last week. Perhaps it’s a big misunderstanding, or maybe it isn’t. I’m not speculating on that. What did happen, however, put words into the mouths of people on major networks. Those words were embarrassing, horrifying, and downright completely inappropriate for a college campus.

In a way, yes, it is expected of college kids

to do stupid things. The idea is not to get caught doing them. Don’t say things to people of authority and expect those words to magically disappear. Learn about how the justice system works. As up-and-coming members of society, we have to take complete and full responsibility for our actions.

Whatever you do in your free time is your own business. If you are possibly going to become injured, arrested, or expelled, however, make sure you are the only one who is going to be affected by your own actions.

Take into account that your actions can and will have an impact on someone else. You see, by meeting and interacting with people, making friends, joining clubs, attending a university, having a job, and being the child of your parents, you automatically link yourself to each of these people you come into contact with.

There is a lot of talk about our generation’s lack of personal responsibility. Many of us can’t seem to own up to what we do. Perhaps this is because we are so used to having a literal screen between us and the outside world. The computer screen and our cell phone screens, both items that we use to communicate our day to day activities to the outside world, may cause us to think that we are safe. This impenetrable shield is not as solid as we think. Everyone can access almost anything. Anything you do can be found in some way. Twitter and Facebook aren’t authority-proof. Your parents aren’t as dumb as you may think they are. Little kids can also find out and be influenced by these actions of yours.

I’m all for having fun. I love living life to its fullest, but as I said, we have to be smart.

The world doesn’t need to see your dirty laundry, and they especially don’t need to know you are doing things that will shame entire communities. Act and be as smart as the college students you are.

UT style adapts to seasons Melodi Erdogan Staff Writer As October begins and weather cools in Knoxville, students on campus are making the transition to the 70 degree weather and beginning to dress warmer for the current autumn season and upcoming winter.

The fall/winter fashion trends that designers released during Fashion Month in February slowly but surely made their way into local stores readily available to students on campus.

“I love the autumn colors like burnt orange and mustard yellow,” Henal Majethia, freshman in communications, said. “Pieces in those colors against plain clothes add pops of color to any outfit.”

Dorian Hudson, senior in retail and consumer science and vice president of marketing and advertising at the POSE fashion club, described his style as edgy without going overboard. Hudson, who promotes the club and handles its social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter, said it’s easy to transition from summer dress to warmer fall clothes.

“What a lot of people don’t realize is that some of your summer and spring stuff can be worn in fall if you do it right,” Hudson said.

“Wear a T-shirt and jeans and put a cardigan or a light jacket on, and as it gets warmer you can take that off because if you wear a sweater you’re just hot out there.”

Bryce Boyd Barry, freshman in wildlife and fisheries science, prefers dressing for the autumn and winter seasons as opposed to spring and summer. Describing his style as classic and polished, Barry wears cardigans during the fall, saying they are stylish and comfortable.

“I’m kind of obsessed with cardigans,” Barry said. “They’re cute and you can wear them with anything, they’re so major.”

Majethia, who described her style as preppy, said that she looks forward to wearing boots and scarves and purchasing mostly accessory items, as opposed to clothes.

“I like to show my style through the accessories I have because I think that they are what make an outfit and put it (all) together,” Majethia said. “People generally notice accessories more than jeans and T-shirts.”

Autumn trends revolving around standout accessories and layers, which were seen on the runway, can easily transcend into girls’ style, but not for boys. Barry said with the weather being fair, it is harder for boys to incorporate trends into the way they dress.

“There are not a lot of options for us,” Barry said. “Girls show their purses and their jewelry and stuff, whereas guys show more of their fall style through cardigans and jackets and shoes.”

Hudson, who says Knoxville is not edgy but rather composed in style, believes that in order to make a smooth transition from summer to fall, it’s necessary to accessorize, even

for boys. Hudson said he recently purchased a zippered necklace.

“You can still accent with it and still make it masculine and it still looks pretty cool,” Hudson said.

Majethia, who shops at the apparel store Forever 21, says that she looks forward to the colder weather not only because she won’t get sweaty while walking to class, but also to see how other girls dress as the climate cools.

“I like it when girls wear slouchy sweaters, because they show that style and comfort can both be achieved at the same time,” Majethia said.

Hudson, who is also a sales associate at Forever 21 in West Town Mall, said that autumn, like spring, is a transitional season that is all about adding on clothes and layering on top of the previous season’s shirts and jeans.

“You’re interchanging the clothes between the two seasons and adding onto to what you are doing now for fall,” Hudson said. “(Forever 21) is always very trendy and you can interchange stuff within the different shops (Heritage 1981, Love 21) within the store so you can mix and match the clothes.”

Hudson says that no matter the season, it’s important to stay true to one’s own personal style.

“Some people like to step out and just be bold when some people like to sit back and be subtle,” Hudson said. “Style is all what you make of it.”

Albums invoke tranquility, Beatles spirit Brandon Swinford Contributor Every week we will review albums that sound great on vinyl. They are judged by our ears, minds, and quality, as subjective as that is. We collaborate with DJs on WUTK to ensure that our opinions are informed.

Vetiver - Tight Knit Sub Pop all-stars Vetiver can do it all. Heavily touted by the likes of Devendra Banhart, CocoRosie and other freak folk American artists, they spin modern lullabies and contemporary folk songs that evoke the serene tranquility of a sloth napping with a slow loris. You don’t know what a slow loris is? Look it up on YouTube, you’ll be amazed. It’s unfair to stereotype them as only music to nap to, considering upbeat tracks like “More of This” and—well, actually the album is mostly pretty relaxing. The title of the album is also spot on.

PTM album in general. Invoking 60s psychadelic, pop, folk and indie rock, “Censored Colors” really serves as the best example of PTM’s sound next to “Waiter: ‘You Vultures!’”

Even if you don’t listen to the whole thing, listen to “Salt” and “Created.” Also, “New Orleans” gets into their northwestern jangly rock roots and will definitely bring you back to the time they played at Bonnaroo for the first time.

Why Vinyl: PTM has their own record label that they release through, and it’s a spirit of super DIY that should definitely be supported industry-wide by listeners, as it allows bands to consistently put out solid records, and always with accessories such as wheat pasting icons and limited edition options. Buying these kinds of records lets musicians know that good records are what listeners want to buy. Plus, they are far more groovy once their sound is laid down outside of digitization. You’ll hear phrases from their basses that are completely different on record than how they sound on CD. Listen if: You think Washington and Alaska are awesome states, enjoy things better when your friends make them, or think Death Cab needs to be more edgy.

care if the music falls apart at any moment, but it never does. You’re in for a treat if you’ve never heard them before.

Why Vinyl: Because of the nature of the medium, there is less distortion in midrange reproduction. That’s a fancy way of saying that drums and vocals sound awesome on vinyl. Being a primarily folk band, one doesn’t hear a lot of experimenting outside of guitars, drums and other instruments that sound very natural.

Listen if: You go climbing, own a hammock or are burnt out on Two Door Cinema Club.

Vols play ‘wild,’ Bray leaves frustrated Colin Skinner Staff Writer

Nate Patton • The Daily Beacon

Tyler Bray prepares for the snap against the Bulldogs on Sept. 29.

Vols finish 11th, newcomers pace Staff Report BETHLEHEM, Pa. Newcomers Peter Okwera and Alexis Panisse once again paced the Tennessee cross country teams, leading the Vols and Lady Vols at Friday’s 39th annual Paul Short Run presented by Brooks at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa. “Based on their times and finishes in the races, both teams improved dramatically at the Paul Short Run this year,” said director of track & field and cross country J.J. Clark. “They’re both moving in the right direction and will continue to get better as the season winds towards the championship portion.”

For the third time this season, Okwera paced the Big Orange with a 24th place finish in a loaded field of 332 runners. The sophomore transfer navigated the 8,000-meter Goodman Campus Course in 24 minutes, 37 seconds, guiding the Vols to a program-best 11th place team finish at the event. UT improved 26 places from last season’s 37th place finish at the meet.

The Tennessee men accumulated 392 points, while 22nd-ranked Villanova won the meet with 69 total points and posted an impressive spread of 25 seconds. William & Mary took second with 100 points and No. 15 Georgetown rounded out the top three, just one point behind the Tribe.

Panisse was the Lady Vols’ top finisher for the thirdstraight meet, crossing the line in a 6,000-meter personal best time of 21:36. The Bellerose, N.Y., native finished 58th in a field of 360 runners in the women’s Gold Race on the Goodman Campus Course.

“Peter and Alexis continue to lead their teams,” Clark said. “They have done a great job in doing so and they too will continue to improve as the season continues.”

The Tennessee women,

who finished 32nd a year ago, placed 20th out of 40 teams with a total of 617 points. UT improved 12 slots from last year’s 32nd place finish. Ivy League affiliate Cornell took home the team trophy with 55 total points, while William & Mary’s women also placed second with 102 total points. No. 4 Georgetown wound up third with 106 points.

“Kelsey (Kane) and J.R. (Creekmore) had major improvements as well, and it was another solid race for Kyle (Walter), who broke the 25minute mark for the first time,” said Clark.

Other scorers for the UT men included redshirt freshman Kyle Walter in 48th, who shattered his personal-best 8K time in 24:56 and junior Stephen Derlath in 77th in a personal-best mark of 25:18.

Sophomore Austin Whitelaw finished 99th (25:30) and classmate J.R. Creekmore in 144th with a PR of 25:55.

Running but not factoring into the points were juniors Daniel Tobin (187th, 26:17), Jordan Chaney (220th, 26:47) and Alex McCandless (123rd, 26:53), as well as sophomore Jeremy Dickie (311th, 27:35).

Other scorers for the Lady Vols included senior Kelsey Kane in 118th place in a personal-best time of 22:20, junior Amber Zimmerman in the 130th position (22:28), freshman Chelsea Blaase in 151st with a PR of 22:41 and Kacey Nobert in 160th (22:46).

Not factoring into UT’s sum was junior Patavia Lowery, who bested her 6K personal record in a time of 23:09 to finish 196th, sophomores Amirah Johnson (221st, 23:31) and Lizzie Cornell (272nd, 23:45), freshman Caroline Duer (273rd, 23:48) and senior Nijgia Snapp (325th, 24:43).

The Big Orange is off next weekend, before resuming action at Alabama’s Crimson Classic on Saturday, Oct. 13.

“38-7 Vols (win), you heard it here first.”

The shouts of optimism filled the air as Vol fans marched to the game on Saturday in Athens, Ga. A sea of red and black greatly outnumbered a Volunteer crowd making its way towards the stadium, weaving around old brick halls and column-christened academic buildings.

The mood was set by noon: it was one of apparent confidence and positivism amid a foreign college town for present Vol fans.

No one said it more accurately than head coach Derek Dooley. After the 51-44 loss to No. 5 Georgia, he gathered his words.

“It was a wild football game,” Dooley said.

The Volunteers were down by as many as 17 points (27-10) before scoring 20 unanswered points and taking the lead 30-27, just before Georgia came back and tied it at 30-30 in the first half.

UGA freshman running back Keith Marshall took the ball 75 yards to the house and catapulted Bulldog fans to new levels of loud. It was the fourth play over 70 yards yielded by the Vols this

season, three of those rushes coming in the last three games.

Dooley also mentioned how frustrated Tyler Bray was in the locker room after the loss, saying he was very disappointed but will learn valuable lessons from the game.

Two things Dooley made sure to reiterate were that he has always known that these Vols have had fourth quarter fight in them, and also that Bray has never really encountered a late game situation of that magnitude.

That being said, Dooley spoke with the quarterback after the game and both agreed that situations like the one in Samford Stadium—with the game on the line—are only going to benefit the gunslinger.

Rajion Neal is beginning to look like an SEC running back. His consistency may still be in question, but as Dooley harped on with the press, Neal has two straight 100 yard rushing efforts and is contributing to a budding rushing attack for the Vols.

The Vols need to continue to establish their running game early on in games and fuel Neal’s confidence, rather than primarily air it out early, as has been seen in recent SEC seasons.

Lady Vols score needed win Lauren Kittrell Sports Editor

Bradley Naslund Contributor Heading into Friday night’s game, the Lady Vols held an all-time record of 11-1-1 against Arkansas, including a 60 record at home.

Arkansas’s Allie Chandler’s 14th minute goal was enough to lift the Razorbacks to a huge upset victory over Tennessee, as the Lady Vols were unable to score despite five shots on goal. The Razorbacks’ senior, Chandler was responsible for Arkansas’s only shots on goal with three.

The game marked the first Tennessee loss to Arkansas since September of 1996.

“We were not prepared to play from the opening whistle tonight,” said Tennessee head coach Brian Pensky.

“Our mentality wasn’t where it needed to be; we were casual and arrogant.”

Tennessee failed to establish any kind of consistency as Arkansas’s

aggressive defense proved to be too much for the Lady Vols.

“I’m really upset about it,” said senior Ali Hall. “We’ll come back from it. I know our team well.”

The Lady Vols quieted critics Sunday as they came up with a 1-0 victory over the 11th ranked Missouri Tigers.

Tennessee (8-3-2, 3-2-1 SEC) managed to regain a winning mentality in time to outscore Missouri (10-2-0, 5-10).

Junior midfielder Tori Bailey scored the team’s only point, handing them the win. Grinning, she said the moment was rewarding to the entire team.

“We work so hard and to come off of a loss Friday night we just came in Sunday wanting to win and win big,” Bailey said. “This was a great opponent that we played. They’re 5-0 in the SEC, so putting a goal in the back of the net never felt better on a Sunday at home.”

Bailey said her goal was the result of an assist from forward Hannah Wilkinson. She said she just got a toe on it and it rolled just outside of the

goalie’s reach.

Pensky said Sunday’s game was great for mentality and he’s proud of Bailey for getting the score.

“Our kids did a great job. I’m happy for Tori. She scored that great goal,” Pensky said. “It’s an important win for our record and our standings and all that, but it’s an important win for the spirit of our team.”

Also important to Pensky was the SEC win.

“This is college soccer and this is the SEC,” he said. “This is (Missouri’s) first year in the league, so we don’t have a rivalry with Missouri, but this is a league game and every game matters.”

The Lady Vols head to South Carolina to take on the Gamecocks on Friday, Oct. 5. Bailey said finding the back of the net is vital for the team to get another SEC win.

“I think our soccer is fantastic at times,” Bailey said. “We outpossess teams a lot, and I think in the final third it’s just focusing into getting more goals on the scoreboard.”
