CHANDLER BLANTON
@chandlerblanton
Sigma Pi became a
chartered fraternity during
a ceremony Saturday
afer nearly three years of
working toward becoming a
recognized chapter.
Now that chartering is
complete, the fraternity
is recognized as a formal
chapter, rather than as a
colony, by the Sigma Pi
International Executive
Ofces. Sigma Pi became the
23rd University of Kansas
fraternity to be governed by
Interfraternity Council.
Tere was a Sigma Pi
chapter at the University
before the Vietnam War,
but when every member
enlisted in the Army to fght
in the war, the chapter was
discontinued, said Andy
McElroy, Sigma Pi president
and a senior from Tulsa,
Okla. Te chapter is looking
at this return to campus as a
chance to recharge.
We had 50 members
participate in the chartering,
and we also have a new
member pledge class of 25,
McElroy said. Tere was a
50-member requirement for
us to even be considered to
be chartered, so its great that
weve surpassed that and are
up to 75 members now.
Each Sigma Pi member had
to meet other requirements
as well, such as passing
a test about Sigma Pi
history and completing
four degrees to charter
scholarship, community
service, philanthropy and
brotherhood. Each degree
has a specifc requirement,
and Sigma Pi was not
considered for charter until
each was met. For example,
the scholarship degree
required the chapter kept a
GPA above the IFC average,
which was 3.01 in spring
2014, according to the IFC
website.
During its time as a colony,
Sigma Pi also was required to
participate in an Altruistic
Campus Experience project.
Two years ago, it started
KU Recycling, which is a
recycling system for all KU
fraternities and sororities.
KU Recycling was
eventually taken over by the
University, but its pretty cool
that we were able to start
such a successful program,
McElroy said.
Te members of Sigma Pi
said they are excited about
becoming an ofcial chapter,
but they understand the
future is bright as well.
Its awesome to fnally be
able to say were chartered,
said Tyler Marshall, a junior
from Santa Cruz, Calif. Tis
is just the beginning.
Now that the chapter
is recognized, members
of Sigma Pi said they are
especially looking forward to
fnding new members to add
to the brotherhood.
Being chartered is a
big deal, McElroy said.
Now that were ofcially
recognized, were going to
focus on other things, such
as bringing in larger, new
member classes through
continuous recruitment, and
possibly securing a fraternity
house in the future.
Sigma Pi is the frst KU
fraternity to be chartered
since Alpha Tau Omega,
which became a chapter
in spring 2012 and is also
currently unhoused.
Its always great to see
fraternities complete the
process, said Dustin
Struble, assistant director
of Greek Life at the Student
Involvement and Leadership
Center. Sigma Pi has done a
great job.

SEXUAL ASSAULT AWARENESS
Te Universitys Ofce of
Institutional Opportunity
and Access has set out on an
initiative to start educational
conversations with students
by creating drink coasters with
instructions to detect date rape
drugs.
By placing a drop of the liquid
in question on the coaster, a
person can tell if the liquid
contains a drug if the coaster
turns a darker-blue color.
Tese coasters also include the
contact information for IOA,
the ofce that investigates
sexual assault complaints.
Te coasters provide a
unique, interesting and
accessible way of detecting a
potential drug without being
a major hassle to students, said
Michael McRill, a graduate
student who works at the
Ofce of IOA.
Te reasoning behind this
new coaster is a deterrence
efect in an attempt to scare
of individuals who might
use date rape drugs, said Jane
McQueeny, executive director
of IOA.
A recently started company
called Undercover Colors
has also set out to make a
diference in the number of
occurring sexual assaults
by instilling fear within the
perpetrators, in an efort
to help victims stop sexual
assaults before the perpetrator
can act.
Four men from North
Carolina State University
invented a clear nail polish
that will change colors when it
comes into contact with a date
rape drug. A user will put on
the nail polish, insert their nail
into a drink and the nail polish
is said to turn from clear to a
darker color if the drink has
been drugged.
Te nail polish company
describes itself as the frst
fashion company empowering
women to prevent sexual
assault. Te nail polish is
not currently on the market
as the company is still raising
funds to hire more people for
research and development
eforts. As Undercover Colors
states on its Facebook page, its
frst product will change color
when it encounters date rape
drugs including Rohypnol,
Xanax and GHB.
Chrissy Heikkila, executive
director of GaDuGi SafeCenter
in Lawrence, disagrees that
prevention should be put on
the survivor of sexual assault
or rape.
As a general rule, our
agency never puts prevention
side on the survivor, Heikkila
said. We do not support the
idea that women need to wear
nail polish. We do not think
rape can be prevented by
wearing a certain nail polish
or clothing.
Conversely, Robyn Herbert,
a junior from Wichita, said
this nail polish is a good
invention to ensure women
feel safe when going out.
Herbert said women feel
threatened and she would use
the nail polish because she is
unsure of whom she can trust.
According to One in Four
Inc., one in four college
women will report a survival
of or an attempted rape in
their lifetime, and in 72-81
percent of cases the female is
intoxicated.
Talking about sexual assault,
having these conversations and
providing support for victims
are vital for implementing a
cultural change and to serve
as the best prevention tactics,
Heikkila said.
McRill said the nail polish
or coaster could serve as an
external barrier or obstacle
against someone who is trying
to commit sexual violence or
abuse.
If they [potential sexual
ofenders] feel like the
conditions are hostile towards
them, they would be less
inclined overall, McRill said.
Only time and further
research can tell how efective
the nail polish will be as the
company proceeds through its
early development stages and
releases the product out to the
market.

BROOK BARNES /KANSAN
University rabbis and the Chabad Center for Jewish Life are receiving a spe-
cially scribed Torah for KUs Jewish community. It is expected in December.
University to get
sacred Torah scroll
Te Chabad Center for
Jewish Life celebrated the
writing of a sacred Torah scroll
on Sunday, among students,
rabbis and observers of the
Jewish community.
A scribe was commissioned
from Israel to create the KU
Torah scroll. While normal
scrolls can take six months to
complete, the scribe plans to
complete the scroll in about
three months and come to the
University in December with
the completed work.
Donations from the local
Jewish community are funding
the Torahs creation. People
can pay based on letters on
the scroll, which cost $36 each,
and up to $9,200 for a silver
crown.
Senior Annabella Zighelboim
from Eau Claire, Wis., said
the Torah scroll ofers a sense
of security for the Jewish
community.
I, along with the KU and
Lawrence Jewish community,
feel so grateful that we are now
in the process of receiving our
own Torah, Zighelboim said.
A KU Torah is a great blessing
because we now have our own
compass, our own foundation
to show us the way to more
upright, selfess and elevated
lives.
Te Torah is a set of guidelines
for living a successful Jewish
life. Creating the Torah scroll
is a labor-intensive task
requiring the 304,805 letters to
be put on parchment without
the slightest of errors. A single
wrong letter voids the entire
process.
Rabbi Zalman Tiechtel
hopes the KU Torah scroll will
create a strong sense of Jewish
community.
We are hoping that many
KU students and faculty will
join this Torah by getting a
letter to be written on their
behalf, Tiechtel said. We
also want this Torah project

opportunity where all people
can learn more about the
Jewish heritage and its rich
meaning.
Junior Alex Beer from
Dallas said he feels the Torah
scroll will provide a sense
of belonging for the Jewish
community.
We as Jews are always afraid
of settling down too deeply in
a community because were
afraid of getting kicked out,
Beer said. By us writing this
Torah here today in Lawrence,
this is going to be our home
for a while because we get to
put down roots here.
Sophomore Daniel Gewirtz
from Northbrook, Ill., said he
agreed.
Tis is a tangible piece of
evidence proving the strength
the Jewish community really
has, Gewirtz said. Tis
is a big stepping stone and
achievable for any other Jewish
campus community.
Tiechtel credits a large group
of supporters for making
the Torah scroll a successful
project.
A special thanks goes to our
main sponsor of the Torah, Mr.
Elliot Tamir of Hawks Pointe
Apartments, Tiechtel said.
We also have a vibrant group
of student leadership who
have put this event together.

Downtown Lawrence, Inc.
kicks off Restaurant Week
Downtown Lawrence
is notorious for hosting
a wide variety of retail
oriented events and
promotions. Te lack of
representation of the food
and entertainment business
is what led the executive
director of Downtown
Lawrence, Inc., Sally Zogry,
to start a new event called
Lawrence Restaurant Week.
Te event will take place
this week during breakfast,
lunch and dinner, and has
19 participating restaurants
whose only requirement in
participating is to bring a
new item to their menu for
the week.
Many familiar venues
will be featured during the
event: 715, Ladybird Diner,
Global Caf, Ramen Bowls,
Te Roost, Merchants, Free
State Beer, Limestone Pizza
& Grill, Te Mad Greek,
TEN, Te Jayhawker,
Minskys Pizza Caf & Bar,
Picklemans Gourmet Caf,
Ingredient, Pachamamas,
Terrebonne Po Boys, La
Parrilla, Genovese and
Miltons.
You might think, Oh,
Restaurant Week, I go [to
a certain restaurant] all
the time, why should I
go? Zogry said. Tis is
a great chance to maybe
try some new places
were pretty fortunate here
[in Lawrence]. Tere are a
lot of Midwestern college
towns that dont have a
ffieth of the restaurants
we do, much less the choice
and the quality.
Zogry said the goal of the
week was to bring business
to downtown Lawrence
dining, and this could
only be accomplished by
making the week accessible
for all involved. As such,
Downtown Lawrence, Inc.
was sure to include a wide
variety of types of food and
price ranges.
Nick Wysong, general
manager of Ingredient,
said the restaurant agreed
to participate in the event
because he said he believed
it was a good thing to be
a part of, and also has the
potential to bring business
to the restaurant.
Our only requirement
was providing a menu
specifcally for the week,
Wysong said. People
should always come to
Ingredient, but they should
especially come this week
because there will be some
tasty food.
While the committee
board of the event will
be checking in with the
restaurants throughout the
week to see how business
is going, Zogry said the
team will rely heavily on
consumer feedback. She
has encouraged those
participating in the week
to express their experience
through social media
outlets, using the hashtag
#EatLawrence.
Anytime I do an event, I
look forward to when its all
come together and you see
how much people enjoy
it, Zogry said.
As this is only the frst
year the event has been
in Lawrence, Zogry said
the company made the
decision to keep the
event strictly limited to
restaurants downtown.
However, should the
week go well, Zogry said
she would be interested
in expanding it beyond
downtown Lawrence in
following years.
Its exciting, Zogry said.
Its a little nerve-wracking
because you dont know a
lot. Its inspiring, it keeps us
on our toes and its fun to
do something new. You see
how it goes the frst year
and then you can just make
improvements on what
works and what doesnt.
Any individual interested
in discovering what is on
the menu need only visit
the events webpage at www.

Calif. wildres
force evacuations
OAKHURST, Calif. Two
out-of-control wildfres in
California forced hundreds
of residents to fee from their
homes on Sunday, including
one near a lakeside resort town
that has destroyed several
structures, authorities said.
Te blaze, sparked shortly
afer 1:30 p.m. near Bass
Lake in Central California,
prompted authorities to
evacuate about 1,000 residents
out of 400 homes, Madera
County Sherifs spokeswoman
Erica Stuart said.
I know 10 structures have
been destroyed already, Stuart
said.
Te fre started of a road
between Oakhurst, a foothill
community south of the
entrance to Yosemite National
Park, and made a run toward
Bass Lake. Stoked by winds,
it quickly charred at least 320
acres, California Department
of Forestry and Fire Protection
spokesman Daniel Berlant said.
Te area is a popular
destination throughout the
year.
We have a lot of full-time
residents as well as renters and
people with vacation homes
here, Stuart said.
Further north, a wildfre about
60 miles east of Sacramento
forced the evacuation of 133
homes. El Dorado County
Sherifs ofcials said residents
of another 406 homes were
being told to prepare to fee.
Berlant said the blaze started
in a remote area Saturday, but
exploded on Sunday when
it reached a canyon full of
thick, dry brush. It has burned
4 square miles, and was 10
percent contained.
Meanwhile in Southern
California, evacuation orders
for 200 homes in Orange
Countys Silverado Canyon
were lifed late Sunday as
frefghters contained 50
percent of a wildfre.
Te residents were evacuated
afer the fre broke out Friday.
Te U.S. Forest Service
downgraded the fres size from
2 square miles to 1 square
miles due to better mapping
of the blaze.
Six frefghters have sufered
minor injuries, many of them
heat-related as the region
baked under triple-digit
temperatures.
A heat wave was expected
to last through Tuesday in
Southern California, and a
smoke advisory was in efect
for parts of Riverside and
Orange counties.
Berlant said crews were
making progress on two
wildfres that broke out
Saturday in Northern
California.
A wildfre in the Sierra
Nevada foothills about
halfway between Sacramento
and Reno burned 250 acres,
destroyed two homes and
three outbuildings. Te burned
homes were in Alta Sierra,
a community of some 6,000
people about fve miles south
of Grass Valley.
A 417-acre blaze in
Mendocino County
destroyed fve structures
and fve outbuildings,
according to CalFire. It was
50 percent contained.

U.S. Senate candidate Chad
Taylors lawsuit against Kansas
Secretary of State Kris Kobach
has been set on the Kansas Su-
preme Court docket for Sept.
16.
Whether Taylor is removed
from the ballot, polls already
show a shif in votes.
Last week Taylor announced
his desire to drop out of the
race, but Kobach refused to
take his name of the ballot,
saying he didnt meet neces-
sary requirements.
Taylor is the Democratic can-
didate from Kansas, running
against Independent candidate
Greg Orman and Republican
incumbent Pat Roberts.
Afer Taylors announcement,
Orman and Roberts are neck-
and-neck in the race for U.S.
Senate. Orman has 37 percent
of the vote to Roberts 36 per-
cent. Ten percent of the vot-
ing population still supports
Taylor despite his withdrawal
from candidacy, according to a
SurveyUSA poll published on
the KSN-TV website.
Dakota Loomis, communi-
cations director for the Kan-
sas Democratic Party, said he
thinks polls show Kansans are
ready for change.
I think at this point all the
polls basically show one thing,
which is that Kansans are ready
for new leadership across the
board, Loomis said. Teyre
ready for new leadership in
Washington, D.C. Teyre
ready for new leadership in
Topeka. Sam Brownback, Kris
Kobach, Pat Roberts have all
demonstrated what their pri-
orities are. Teyre not the pri-
orities of Kansas people.
Republican Party Chair Kelly
Arnold said the Democratic
Party will have to nominate
a new candidate if Taylor is
successfully removed from the
Nov. 4 ballot.
Loomis said the Democratic
Party is working to get this re-
solved.
Right now were just really
focused on the outcome of this
case and hopefully that will
be resolved before the 18th
so that theres a clear under-
standing for voters as to who is
and who is not on the ballot,
Loomis said.
When Kobach refused to
remove Taylor last week, he
cited Kansas statute, K.S.A.
25-306b(b), which says any
candidate who states he or she
is incapable of performing the
duties can be removed from
the ballot.
Arnold said the law was cre-
ated to make it more difcult
to withdraw from the ballot
and disappoint voters.
Tey saw that it was unfair
to primary voters, basically
disenfranchising all the pri-
mary voters in that election,
by taking a name of the bal-
lot, he said.
However, Taylors lawsuit
says the withdrawal followed
instructions that Taylor and
campaign manager Brandon
Naylor received from Brad
Bryant, director of elections
and legislative matters at the
Kansas Secretary of States of-
fce. A release from Joan Wag-
non, chair of the Kansas Dem-
ocratic Party, said Taylor also
tried to contact Kobach direct-
ly before fling his withdrawal.
Taylor went to the Kobachs
ofce at 4 oclock, and Kris
Kobach was nowhere to be
found, the release read. May-
be he was out trying to get
people to self-deport them-
selves. Maybe he was out try-
ing to suppress voters rights.
He surely wasnt in his ofce
working.
Loomis said the court would
have to look at both sides
testimonies and evidence in
order to make an informed
decision.
Tis is an issue for court,
too, Loomis said. I believe
Chad Taylor has issued afda-
vits about what he talked to the
secretary of states ofce about
and theres afdavits about his
eforts to reach Kris Kobach.
Republicans beg to difer.
Te Kansas Republican Party
released a statement that said
Taylor should know how to
properly withdraw from the
race.
Mr. Taylor is a lawyer, in-
deed, a district attorney, the
release read. A frst-year law
student could understand and
properly follow the candidate
withdrawal statute. Mr. Tay-
lor's selfsh attempt to leave
hundreds of thousands of
Kansas Democrats without a
candidate is astounding given
his total dedication to running
just the day before attempting
to withdraw.
Tomorrows hearing will de-
termine whether Taylor will
be removed from the Nov. 4
ballot.

@RadioDJMJ
@KansanOpinion I guess sobbing at the way
we lost to Duke.
A
students time in
college can be a
straining period.
Most of us balance work,
extracurricular activities
and class, while still finding
time to study. Yet as we
progress through college,
stress continuously builds.
Not only do we balance
the previously mentioned
workload, but we also start
building our resumes to
find a decent job out of
college. As we spend all
this time trying to create
a successful future, our
student debt begins to rise.
Unfortunately, the people
who seem to understand
the least are the same
individuals who run the
University.
Case in point, the
University has so
graciously put out its
expectations through
its designed coursework
load. The Universitys
catalog on regulations for
undergraduates expect
students to study at least
two hours per credit hour.
That means students
enrolled in 12-15 credit
hours are expected to study
approximately 24-30 hours
per week. Youre looking at
almost a full work week of
just studying.
This wouldnt be as big of
a problem if students didnt
have other responsibilities,
but to the inconvenience of
the University, we do in fact
have lives. Most students
work and/or are involved in
organizations that require
their time as well. Tuition
keeps rising for incoming
students, meaning they
have to work even more
to pay for schooling. This
regrettably coincides with
the Universitys decision
to slash students work
hours, but thats another
discussion in itself.
If you somehow balance
all of this, youre easily
looking at a 50-60
hour week, every week.
University officials ponder
why some students have
such a hard time, but they
dont realize their high
expectations are whats
putting us in this situation
in the first place.
Maybe if the University
and its professors, who
vehemently follow this
standard, stopped to look
at what students are going
through, the University
may not have such a high
number of dropouts and
an unrealistic four-year
graduation rate. Course
workloads should be
designed to match whats
needed for a student to gain
a proper education while
still being able to balance
the other aspects of our
lives. Coursework should
not be designed to follow
some arbitrary number the
University found fit, while
disregarding the lives of its
students. The University
seems to have forgotten
that it exists for us and not
the other way around.

Study expectations take up too much of students time

W
hen someone says the
word rape, what is the
first thing that jumps
to mind? For most of us, it is the
image of a lone jogger in the park
being violently assaulted by a
shadowy figure. However, there
are far less severe and far less
violent situations that legally
speaking constitute rape.
In high school, I dated a girl who
was 16 when I was 17. Consent
was present for both parties, and
we had consent from our parents
as well, but sex between us legally
would have been considered
statutory rape.
I am not condoning sexual
assault or saying offenders
shouldnt be punished. But when
we hear the word rape, we tend
to jump to certain conclusions,
and it is important to understand
the situation before assuming the
worst. There is a big difference
between people making impaired
decisions and a man in a trench
coat stalking a victim across
campus.
The KU administration has a
difficult job in a case like this,
because while it is its job to keep
the campus safe, not all cases are
the same. Expelling a student who
violently attacked someone makes
sense, but not all cases turn out
that way. Violent assaults may
reoccur if not dealt with severely,
but other cases may need less
drastic action for prevention in
the future. Is it worth ruining a
persons life if it is not necessary to
keep campus safe? Sexual assault is
a spectrum, not a fixed point.

Members of the local band Hembree, from left to right, Matt Green, Zach Mehl, Garrett Childers, Jim Barnes and Isaac Flynn will play their rst Kansas City show Friday at the Plaza Art Fair.
Local band returns with new name, approach
DYLAN GUTHRIE
news@kansan.com
Fresh of the release of its
new single, New Oasis,
Lawrence-based band
Hembree made a comeback
last week. Te musicians who
used to be a part of Lawrences
Americana group Quiet
Corral have recently reformed
under the new name.
Isaac Flynn, Hembrees
guitar player, vocalist,
co-producer and songwriter
explained the inspiration
behind the new name.
I think we need to build
this legend around it, he
said. You know whos
Hembree?
Jim Barnes, vocalist,
drummer and sound
engineer, said Hembree is the
last name of a friend who was
enthusiastic about the bands
return, and they just liked the
sound of it.
We were really like, we
have the time, we dont have
a deadline. Lets just make
whatever we feel like making,
Flynn said.
Hembree features University
seniors Matt Green and Zach
Mehl, and 2011 graduate
Garrett Childers. All three
were part of Quiet Corral,
but despite the departure of
member Jesse Roberts, there
is an abundance of dedication
in both Hembrees music and
its approach to it.
According to Flynn, one
year ago Quiet Corral
released a full-length studio
album titled Ancestors and
the band had plans to play a
tour that featured more than
150 shows in one year. It was
shortly afer this that Roberts,
the lead singer and principal
songwriter at the time,
decided to leave the band to
play music with his wife and
pursue other opportunities.
It felt very defating because
we did invest a lot of time and
energy, and we made a lot of
sacrifces, but thankfully weve
had enough time to transition
from Quiet Corral to what
were doing now, Flynn said.
Flynn said Roberts was, and
still is, a massive infuence in
his songwriting. Tis current
project is a blend of Quiet
Corrals vigor and his own
musical infuences, he said.
I learned a lot from him,
and I owe a lot to him for
guiding me through the song-
writing process, and basically
teaching me how to write
lyrics, he said.
Hembrees upcoming
six-song EP is expected to be
released in late November.
I love Americana rock, and
thats kind of in that Quiet
Corral category, and I also
just love pop music, whether
thats Prince, Michael Jackson,
or 80s stuf like Tears for
Fears or Hall and Oates,
Flynn said. I love all of that,
and I wanted to fnd a way to
incorporate some of that into
the infuences we had with
Quiet Corral.
Te frst verse of New
Oasis has an Americana
feel to it, with its sparse
instrumentation and folky
vocal harmonies. Te second
verse has more of an 80s
style pop where the drumbeat
drops are comparable to a
Michael Jackson song.
KJHKs station manager
Mathew Primovic, a frst-
year graduate student from
Overland Park, said he was
very impressed by New
Oasis, especially the vocals.
I really liked how seamless
it felt between the buildup
and the rock-out section,
Primovic said. Also, the
production value was
phenomenal. Ive listened to
it several times, and Ive just
loved it every time.
Back when Quiet Corral
formed, many of the members
were only 18 or 19 years old
and Flynn said there were
defnitely some maturity
issues.
Tis project is more focused
and more mature, Flynn said.
Now its like, we know how
to do this, and we can do this
confdently.
Hembrees sound has
defnitely evolved as well.
Whereas Quiet Corral was
a straight-ahead Americana
rock group, with Flynns
songwriting as the chief
creative element, there is a
noticeable change in style.
Local singer-songwriter
Spencer Mackenzie Brown
has been excited about
Hembrees music ever since
he heard some of the unmixed
songs a few months back.
I think what theyre doing
now is a natural evolution
for their band, Brown said.
I cant speak for them, but
it seems like theyre all really
enjoying that, and it comes
out in the music.
Brown said he thought
Flynns lyrics were particularly
thoughtful, and his words
contained much more depth
than many other songwriters.
Isaac did write in Quiet
Corral, but it was mostly
Jesse, Brown said. He wrote
this music in his basement
on his own before they even
knew they would be forming
a band. I think it comes from
a really honest place.
Flynn, Barnes and Brown
each mentioned they felt
Lawrence was a defnite
creative hub, and they were
honored to be surrounded
daily by such amazing talent.
I get a lot of infuence just
from growing up here, and
living in this city, Flynn said.
Im really proud to be from
Lawrence.
Flynn said he has always
known he wanted to pursue
music as a career, he said
when he was younger he had
imaginary friends that he was
in a band with. His parents are
both musicians and while he
was growing up they owned
a recording studio as well as
Lawrences Mass St. Music
downtown.
I grew up surrounded by
music, Flynn said. My whole
life was going to shows with
them.
Barnes chose music as a
career path for other reasons.
He said while he was in school
he soon realized music was
the one thing he knew he
was truly good at. Barnes is
not only a musician, but also
a sound engineer who, in the
last year, has produced local
bands Forrester and Middle
Twins EPs among other local
acts.
He said he didnt see himself
as doing anything but being
someone who works with
music and musicians and said
he appreciates working with
Isaac and seeing him take on
a larger role.
Isaacs got such a passion
for leading our band now,
he said. His enthusiasm it
stems from that. Its good and
infectious, and everyone feeds
from that.
Hembree will play its frst
show this Friday in Kansas
City, Mo., at the Plaza Art
Fair. Hembrees frst show
in Lawrence will be Nov. 22
at the Bottleneck with local
Lawrence artist Your Friend.

DETROIT A member of
an elite Detroit police unit
is set to stand trial again
for killing a 7-year-old girl
during a 2010 raid on her
house that was captured on
video by a reality TV crew.
Nobody alleges Ofcer Jo-
seph Weekley intended to kill
Aiyana Stanley-Jones, who
had been sleeping on a couch
near the front door when of-
fcers burst through around
midnight in search of a mur-
der suspect. But prosecutors
charged him with involun-
tary manslaughter because
they believe he handled his
submachine gun recklessly,
causing the girl's death.
Jury selection starts Mon-
day in Wayne County court,
15 months afer Weekley's
frst trial ended with jurors
unable to agree on a verdict.
Weekley was a member of
Detroit's Special Response
Team, which was sent to an
east side neighborhood to
capture a suspect in the kill-
ing of a teenager outside a
convenience store.
Police threw a stun grenade
through a window, emitting
smoke, bright light and vi-
brations to confuse anyone
inside. Weekley was frst
through the door, with a
shield in one hand and a gun
in the other. He claims he ac-
cidentally pulled the trigger
when Aiyana's grandmother,
Mertilla Jones, grabbed his
gun. She denies that she in-
terfered in any way.
Te raid was recorded for
a police reality TV show,
"Te First 48," but there was
no footage from inside the
house. Te target, Chauncey
Owens, eventually was ar-
rested and convicted of kill-
ing a 17-year-old boy.

Lawrence City Band performs
concert for citys anniversary
Te Lawrence City Band
started so long ago that the
true formation is unknown.
From Massachusetts to
Lawrence, the original
founders of Lawrence
brought their instruments
along, said Robert Foster,
band conductor and music
professor at the University.
Tat is why it was appropriate
for the Lawrence City Band
to play at Lawrences 160th
anniversary celebration last
week at South Park.
Foster said the band was
formally established in 1968.
Originally it was organized
by a band director at KU
who was also an employee
at Lawrence Memorial
Hospital, along with an
employee from KU Registrar
and an assistant dean of the
School of Fine Arts.
Ten years ago, on the
150th anniversary, the band
made its frst appearance
at the festival and has
continued playing at the
event ever since. Ed Bartley,
a trombone player for the
band, said having the band
play at the festival resulted
in a dramatic increase in
attendance.
What makes the band
unique are the people who
orchestrate and conduct
these instruments. Foster
is currently the conductor
of the band, though he
started out as a trumpet
player in 1971. Foster said
when he found out about
the band, he decided to try
it out and said he is happy
with his decision. He also
said he loves the people,
the players, the music and
the opportunity to play
with good players and good
music.
What drives you to
breathe? Its just part of what
you are, isnt it? he said.
Bartley is a previous band
director at Lawrence High
School and is one of the
longest standing members
of the band.
Forty-four years have
gone by, he said. I love
to play the horn, I love to
play in the band, I love the
people. All the people who I
have known and respected,
these are my great friends.
It is an honor and a privilege
to be in the band.
Bartley was raised to play
music as it was a staple in
his familys life and he had
a great experience playing
in the band as a kid. He has
continued with his passion
for music ever since. Now,
Bartley is driven by his
kids and continues with his
music career to inspire them
because he said they keep
him young.
You get out of bed and
you tear into it, thats what it
amounts to, Bartley said. I
am a band geek. Tat is all
there is to it.
Dean Sommerville, a tuba
player for the Lawrence City
Band, previously served as a
member of the Army Field
Band in Washington, D.C.
Afer visiting his kids who
attended KU, he and his wife
decided to move to Lawrence
and both quickly joined the
band. Sommerville says he
truly enjoys being in the
band and it is one of the
best he has ever played in.
Sommerville has played the
tuba for 46 years.
I enjoy playing band
music with a really good
[organization] under
someone who really knows
what they are doing and
appreciates the people who
are working for them, he
said. Tat would be Bob
Foster.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.
Miss New York Kira Kazant-
sev was named the new Miss
America Sunday night, mark-
ing the third year in a row a
contestant from her state has
walked away with the crown
in the nationally televised
pageant.
Kazantsev received the
crown at Atlantic City's
Boardwalk Hall from outgo-
ing Miss America and Miss
New York Nina Davuluri.
For her talent performance,
Kazantsev sang Pharrell Wil-
liams' "Happy" while sitting
cross-legged on the stage and
banging a red plastic cup on
the foor.
She named combating sexu-
al assault in the military as the
issue about which she would
want female U.S. Senators to
press their male counterparts.
Te frst runner-up was
Miss Virginia Courtney Paige
Garrett.
Other top 5 fnalists were
Miss Arkansas Ashton Jo
Campbell; Miss Florida Vic-
toria Cowen; and Miss Mas-
sachusetts Lauren Kuhn.
Miss North Dakota, Jacky
Arness was chosen by her
peers as Miss Congeniality.
Te pageant shone a positive
light on the struggling seaside
gambling resort, which has
been in the national news for
all the wrong reasons lately: a
rash of casino closings, thou-
sands of unemployed work-
ers, and a domestic violence
case involving a former NFL
star.
For three hours Sunday
night, America got a difer-
ent look at Atlantic City. Te
Miss America pageant pre-
sented an upbeat view of the
city where it began in 1921.
It featured iconic Atlan-
tic City visuals including its
beach, Boardwalk, the Steel
Pier, Black Fish Pier near
Brigantine, and the Atlantic
City Beach Patrol station.
"Atlantic City is facing a
challenging economic cli-
mate and our hearts go out
to all of those who have lost
their jobs," said Sam Haskell
III, CEO of the Miss America
organization. "We hope that
our Miss America telecast ...
will generate great interest
for Atlantic City on a nation-
al scale as we showcase their
beautiful beaches and Board-
walk."
Tere has been no shortage
of compelling storylines lead-
ing up to the selection of the
next Miss America, including
the way personal tragedy has
shaped the public service plat-
forms of several contestants.
Te brother of Miss Wisconsin
Raeanna Johnson killed himself
afer a secret addiction to meth-
amphetamine. Her platform
was the impact of substance
abuse on the family.
Te father of Miss Kansas
Amanda Sasek killed himself
when she was 17. Her platform
was helping people fnd their
strengths. And Miss Delaware
Brittany Lewis is still waiting
for an arrest to be made in the
2010 slaying of her sister. Her
platform is combating domestic
violence.
Tere was drama and even
some low-brow comedy lead-
ing up to the fnale. Miss Rhode
Island, Ivy DePew, collapsed
onstage during the frst night
of preliminary competition, but
made it back the next night af-
ter two trips to the hospital for
dehydration.
Supermodel and business mo-
gul Kathy Ireland took the stage
to burp on command on a dare
from pageant host Dena Bliz-
zard on the second night.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE
GAME: DEANDRE MANN
Te running back had 12
carries for 65 yards. He also
had a catch-and-run of 36
yards in the fourth quarter,
although the game was well
out of reach by then. He picked
up a key frst down on the
Jayhawks scoring drive in the
frst quarter.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE
GAME: JACOREY SHEPHERD
Going into the game, the
Kansas secondary focused
on Duke receiver Jamison
Crowder. Shepherd was key in
covering Crowder and limiting
him to two catches for 14 yards.
PLAYER KANSAS STRUGGLED
TO CONTAIN: SHAUN WILSON
Te freshman running back
burned Kansas and ran for 245
yards and three touchdowns.
With his eight-yard run as time
expired, he broke Dukes single-
game record for rushing yards.
He was also virtually untouched
by the Kansas defense on his
long touchdown runs of 69, 68
and 45 yards.
OFFENSE SUMMARY
Te whole ofense had a
game to forget, especially
quarterback Montell Cozart.
He ofen looked uncomfortable
and nervous. He bobbled
snaps, kept the ball too long
and overthrew receivers.
DEFENSE SUMMARY
Te scoreboard says it all.
Te Kansas defense gave up
big plays, including Wilsons
touchdowns and a 36-yard
touchdown through the air to
start the game.
SPECIAL TEAMS SUMMARY
Punter Trevor Pardula was the
bright spot. He was called on to
punt eight times, and his punts
averaged 51.8 yards, including
a booming 72-yard kick in the
third quarter. Te Jayhawks
were unable to return any of
Dukes punts, but Shepherd had
a nice 31-yard kickof return in
the second quarter.
PLAY OF THE GAME
Wide receiver Tony Pierson
converted on a third down
in the frst quarter with a 14-
yard catch. It set up Matthew
Wymans 34-yard feld goal.
QUARTER SUMMARIES
First quarter On its opening
drive, Duke quarterback
Anthony Boone connected
with Max McCafrey for a
touchdown. Duke would add
a feld goal and Wilsons frst
touchdown run to start 17-0.
Wyman made a feld goal for
Kansas three points.
Second quarter Duke
tacked on a feld goal to make it
20-3, but otherwise the Kansas
defense held. Cozart threw his
second pick of the game. On a
promising drive, Cozart was
sacked and was driven out of
feld goal range.
Tird quarter Visions of
the frst quarter came back and
haunted Kansas. McCafrey
and Wilson scored their second
touchdowns.
Fourth quarter Duke and
Kansas each had a turnover
on downs. Kansas running
backs Mann and Corey Avery
had a couple nice runs that
didnt turn into anything. Duke
capped its scoring with Wilsons
third touchdown.
MOVING FORWARD
Tere seems to be cause
for concern, especially with
Cozart. At times, he looked like
he didnt know what to do and
didnt want the ball. Te wide
receivers were never part of the
game. Tree receivers, Pierson,
Nick Harwell and Justin
McCay, each had two catches;
tight end Jimmay Mundine
added three. Te running
game showed promise, but was
not utilized. Te defense was
burned for big gains, but also
let the Duke ofense march
down the feld when it wanted
to. At the very least, this Kansas
team shows it has road jitters.
It will be interesting to see how
the team responds next week at
home.

It was defnitely a learning
experience for us, Chapman
said. Some of our results
werent exactly what we hoped
to have. We had a couple girls
that did really well, but we had
mixed results.
For seven of the 11 players
on the team, the tournament
was their frst time on the
court at the collegiate level.
Smith Hinton, a freshman
from Raleigh, N.C., advanced
to the quarterfnal in Texas,
but her remaining match was
rained out. Hinton was the
only player to win a match at
the Midland Invitational.
Overall, senior Maria
Belen Luduena was the
most successful Jayhawk of
the weekend. At the CCLR
Collegiate Invite in Little
Rock, she defeated Arkansas
Oleksandra Shkorupeieva to
become the singles B Flight
champion. Luduena was the
only player for Kansas to
win on the frst day of that
tournament.
Tese tournaments included
other Big 12 competition
like Oklahoma State and
Texas Tech, as well as some
ranked opponents. Chapman
said that his team needs to
acclimate itself to face better
competition.
When youre playing against
really good players, which we
did at both tournaments this
weekend, you get mentally
and physically fatigued with
every single point, and as a
group we have to get used to
doing that, Chapman said.
Kansas doubles record over
the weekend was the most
concerning for Chapman;
the Jayhawks did not win a
doubles match over the entire
weekend.
Weve got to get a lot
better at our doubles, he
said. Our doubles results
were not very good at all in
both tournaments.
Chapman said it was
important to challenge his
players by sending them to
tournaments that show their
weaknesses.
[Playing better
competition] exposes
weaknesses and thats
why were playing in the
tournaments we play in.
We want to see what our
weaknesses are it lets us
know what we need to work
on, Chapman said.
Te team will play in the
Oklahoma Invitational next
weekend. Chapman said he
hopes to improve in doubles
matches and gain more
collegiate experience for the
young team.

Strength versus strength.
Te talk leading up to
Saturdays showdown between
Kansas and Duke was on the
premier matchup between
each teams biggest strength.
Dukes NFL-caliber receivers
arguably faced one of the best
secondary units in Kansas
history.
Te Jayhawks recorded
three interceptions last week
in their 34-28 victory in
the season opener against
Southeast Missouri State.
Senior Dexter McDonald
earned Big 12 Defensive
Player of the Week honors
with a two-interception
evening.
He and the rest of the
secondary had its hands
full against the Blue Devils,
though.
Coming into Saturdays
contest, the highly touted
No. 1 receiver, senior Jamison
Crowder, caught 14 balls for
163 yards and two scores in
two games. Weis compared
him with Baltimore Ravens
receiver Steve Smith because
of his quickness.
But teams couldnt focus too
much on Crowder without
being burnt by senior Issac
Blakeney. Te 6-foot-6
prototypical NFL receiver had
nine receptions for 135 yards
with three scores coming into
Saturdays game.
I wouldnt put out anything
in particular; we just need to
bring our A-game like every
other game, senior safety
Cassius Sendish said before
the game. If we do that like
we know we can, we will come
out victorious.
Despite losing to the Blue
Devils 41-3, the Jayhawks held
up to Sendishs comments by
silencing the Duke dynamic
duo. Te KU secondary proved
the doubters wrong, holding
Crowder and Blakeney to just
six receptions for 52 yards and
no touchdowns.
It was Dukes third option,
junior Max McCafrey, who
found holes in the Kansas
secondary. McCafrey had
just nine catches for 99 yards
and no touchdowns before
Saturdays contest. McCafrey
scored twice on seven
receptions for 79 yards against
the Jayhawks.
Te ground game
contributed to a majority of
the ofenses 511 yards and
41 points. Te Blue Devils
rushed for 331 yards to help
out an air attack that struggled
to do much against the KU
secondary.
Like the receiver unit, an
unexpected player torched the
defense in the running game.
Freshman running back
Shaun Wilson, who was not
listed on the depth chart
before the game, gashed the
Jayhawks. Wilson ran for a
school-record 245 yards on 12
carries and three touchdowns.
Sept. 12, 2009, remains
the last road victory for
Kansas afer an unlikely 41-3
drubbing by the Blue Devils.
Despite the loss, the secondary
showed promise, proving they
may be as good as advertised.
But if the front seven cant
contain a freshman who was
unlisted on the initial depth
chart, it may be another year
before the Jayhawks can snap
this streak of road losses.
Tat was embarrassing,
Weis said. Other than the
punter, theres going to be
plenty of blame to share.

Broncos fend off Chiefs 24-17 with goal-line stand
It took the Denver Broncos
three tries to put away the
Kansas City Chiefs.
Terrance Knighton batted
away Alex Smiths fourth-
and-goal pass to Dwayne
Bowe with 15 seconds left,
preserving the Broncos
24-17 win over the scrappy
Chiefs on Sunday.
The Broncos (2-0) thought
they had sealed the win
twice earlier on the drive.
Aqib Talibs pick-6 was
negated by Quanterus
Smiths hold. Then, Nate
Irvings fumble recovery
following DeMarcus Wares
sack and strip was ruled
an incomplete pass after a
review.
The Chiefs (0-2), without
All-Pro running back
Jamaal Charles for much
of the game, converted
11 of 16 third-down
opportunities overall. They
just couldnt capitalize in
the biggest moments as the
Broncos mustered two goal-
line stands for the second
straight week.
Peyton Manning was 21 of
26 for 242 yards and three
TDs, but the Broncos had
the ball for less than 10
minutes in the second half.
Smith was 26 of 42 for 255
yards, and Knile Davis ran
22 times for 79 yards and
two touchdowns for Kansas
City.
Charles left with an ankle
injury in the first half, as
did safety Eric Berry. These
ailments came one week
after three Chiefs suffered
season-ending injuries.
Without Wes Welker for
the second straight game
and facing a defense that
lost Pro Bowl linebacker
Derrick Johnson and
tackle Mike DeVito to torn
Achilles tendons last week,
Manning targeted his tight
ends again.
He found Julius Thomas
and Jacob Tamme for 4-yard
TDs in the first half. Thomas
became the first tight end in
franchise history to catch
four TD passes in the first
two games.
Manning also threw a
12-yarder to Demaryius
Thomas, who pinned the
football on his left shoulder
blade with cornerback Chris
Owens draping him.
Emmanuel Sanders led the
Broncos with eight catches
for 108 yards, the first 100-
yard game of his career.
The Broncos head to
Seattle next week with a
2-0 record, if not exactly a
head of steam, to face the
Seahawks, who handed them
a Super Bowl shellacking
and then talked trash about
them in the offseason.
Denver GM John Elway
retooled his ground game
and embarked on a defensive
makeover after that 43-8
Super Bowl loss. Yet, the
Broncos have been unable
to salt away big leads or get
off the field consistently.
They have come up big
when backed up near their
goal line, though.
Smith led the Chiefs on
a 19-play drive that ate up
10 minutes coming out
of halftime. They came
up empty after getting
to the Denver 4 on the
strength of five third-down
conversions.
An offensive holding call
and linebacker Brandon
Marshalls sack dropped
them back to the 19. Cairo
Santos was wide right on a
37-yard field goal attempt.
Santos, who beat out
incumbent veteran Ryan
Succop with a strong leg in
training camp, also failed to
kick a touchback later in the
game, and Bubba Caldwell
returned it 54 yards, setting
up a score.
The Chiefs got it right
the next time, however,
converting all three third
downs on a 14-play drive
that covered 90 yards and
chewed up nearly eight
minutes. The key was
Anthony Fasanos bobbling
22-yard grab to the Broncos
25.
Davis trotted in from 4
yards, pulling Kansas City
to 21-17 with 7:11 left. He
also had a 2-yard TD run in
the first half.
Caldwells big kickoff
return set up Brandon
McManus 20-yard field goal
that put Denver ahead by
seven with 3:27 remaining.
Charles left after running
just twice for 4 yards and
catching one pass for 8
yards. Kansas City was
trying to get him more
involved after giving him
just seven carries against
Tennessee in the opener.
Charles rushed for 1,287
yards a season ago, which
was third most in the NFL.
Demaryius Thomas
had an 80-yard TD catch
negated when right tackle
Chris Clark was whistled
for being downfield.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
N
o play
in Char-
lie Weis
time as Kansas
football coach
spoke more to the
teams transgres-
sions over the past
two seasons than the fnal one.
Tere were just four seconds
remaining in the game. Duke
led Kansas 41-3. Some may
have found little meaning in
the eight-yard run from Duke
running back Shaun Wilson,
but it was actually flled with it.
Wilson, the true freshman,
not even listed on Dukes two-
deep depth chart this week,
broke through the Kansas de-
fensive line and put his name
in the record books.
As Kansas went down Sat-
urday, so did the Duke sin-
gle-game rushing record with
Wilsons 245-yard perfor-
mance. Wilson spent the bulk
of his day in the end zone,
rushing for three touchdowns:
one for 45 yards, one for 68
yards and another for 69 yards.
Tat was embarrassing,
Weis said. Other than the
punter, theres going to be
plenty of blame to share.
But when he addressed the
media Sept. 13 before the
game, Weis was swelling with
optimism.
Teres visual evidence on
tape, Weis said. Tey should
go down there with the an-
ticipation of winning the game
and not just hoping to win.
Afer watching Saturday, Id
like to ask Weis for a copy of
that visual evidence.
Duke went for 511 total yards
of ofense to Kansas 297.
To win on the road, you
have to do the same things you
do to win at home, just better,
ofensive coordinator John
Reagan said.
Kansas didnt play well
enough Saturday to win at
home, much less well enough
to win on the road.
Im just trying to do my job,
Weis said, which I didnt do
very well today.
Senior linebacker Ben
Heeney cited a lack of juice in
the stadium as the culprit of
the 21 points
allowed in last
weeks fourth
quarter. Its
hard to imag-
ine a Blue
Devil crowd
of 25,203 was
particularly hostile, but if
Kansas is that reliant on the
crowds juice to carry them to
victory, it should come as no
surprise that Kansas has lost
28-straight games away from
Memorial Stadium.
To be fair, Charlie Weis is
not responsible for the 28
consecutive road losses, and
hed probably be the frst to tell
you that. You have to remem-
ber, he was hired in December
2011 for a guaranteed $2.5
million over fve years.
But one thing hell have to
concede is that he is respon-
sible for 12 of the 28 Im no
math major, but I know thats
approaching almost half.
Its quite a struggle to point
to Weis-recruited players who
have produced. Ben Heeney,
James Sims and Tony Pierson,
the biggest names to take the
feld for the Jayhawks since
2012, were all Turner Gills
pickings.
When a player not listed
on Dukes two-deep averages
20.4 yards per carry, and your
starting quarterback com-
pletes 11 of 27 passes for 89
yards, youve got some issues.
Tis kind of performance
would be disappointing but
excusable in year one of a re-
build, but in year three, with a
senior-laden team, it becomes
pathetic a fre-able ofense.
Saturday didnt provide me
any visual evidence that this
program is headed in the right
direction.

COMMENTARY
L
ast weeks racist comments by
Danny Ferry, Atlanta Hawks
general manager, concerning
NBA free agent Luol Deng were made
public. Tis came afer Atlanta Hawks
co-owner Bruce Levenson announced
he would sell his shares in the team
afer he had self-reported an email
he wrote two years ago, complaining
about the race of the teams audience.
Racist remarks by two of the Atlanta
Hawks high-ranking members are
detrimental to the team with the
second highest African-American fan
base in the NBA. African-Americans
make up nearly 48 percent of Atlantas
fans, according to an article by editor
and statistician Nate Silver of the
ESPN blog FiveTirtyEight.com. Not
only are ticket sales and overall fan
support in jeopardy, free agents might
simply choose to steer clear of Atlanta,
which could be disastrous for the
teams records.
Before the publication of these
remarks, Atlanta had been a pillar
of consistency as far as on-the-court
play was concerned. Te Hawks were
one of two teams to consistently make
the playofs for the last seven seasons,
and the team won at least 35 games in
each of those years.
Over the past decade, Atlanta stayed
somewhat quiet in terms of atten-
tion for its constant success, but the
accomplishments of the franchise
have certainly been nothing to scof
at. Atlanta has managed to get to the
postseason year afer year, despite
not having a player who many would
consider a household name. In fact,
Atlanta did not have a single player
make the All-NBA First or Second
Team throughout the past seven
seasons.
During the 2013 ofseason, Atlanta
acquired free agent Paul Millsap, who
put up impressive numbers. In the
playofs, he led the Hawks in minutes,
points, rebounds, steals and blocks
per game. Millsaps play was a key fac-
tor in how the eight-seed Hawks were
able to push the one-seed Indiana
Pacers to a full seven-game series.
However, if Millsap had chosen to
sign elsewhere because of an issue like
the one the Hawks are facing right
now, it wouldnt be far-fetched to sug-
gest that Atlanta wouldve missed
the
play-
ofs
entire-
ly and
wouldve
fallen well
short of
the 35-win
mark
that seems to
be a yearly occurrence.
During the Citi Carmelo Anthony
Basketball Camp, seven-time NBA
All-Star Carmelo Anthony said play-
ers may be hesitant to join the Hawks
now.
I think it puts Atlanta back even
further now. [Comments] from
an owner, from a GM, those are not
things you play with, Anthony said.

looking for a job, were trying to nd a

never look at [playing there].

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Dan-

der Bogaerts added a three-run
shot and the Boston Red Sox
rallied past the skidding Kan-
sas City Royals 8-4 on Sunday.
Kansas City blew a four-run
lead and dropped three of four
to the last-place Red Sox.
Te Royals fell 1 1-2 games
behind Detroit, which beat
Cleveland, in the AL Central.
Kansas City is in the thick of
the wild-card race.
Te Red Sox chased Jason
Vargas (11-9) with one out in
the sixth afer Mookie Betts
and Bogaerts singled. Reliev-
er Aaron Crow walked Yoenis
Cespedes to load the bases and
struck out Allen Craig.
Nava hit Crow's next pitch
into the Red Sox bullpen for his
second career grand slam and a
7-4 lead.
Bogaerts homered in the
third and got three hits. He also
had a sacrifce fy and drove in
four runs, giving him 11 RBIs
in his past 15 games.
Joe Kelly (3-2) gave up fve
consecutive hits and four runs
in the second, but nothing else
in six innings. Te Royals load-
ed the bases in the ninth of Ed-
ward Mujica, but Lorenzo Cain

ning.

DETROIT Ian Kinsler hit
a go-ahead, two-run homer
in the seventh inning, and the
Detroit Tigers opened a 1 1/2-
game AL Central lead by beat-
ing the Cleveland Indians 6-4
Sunday for a three-game sweep.
Kinsler's homer of Bryan

Detroit widened its lead in the
eighth on C.C. Lee's run-scor-

Te No. 24 Kansas volleyball
team (9-2) fnished 3-1
at the Villanova Classic
in Philadelphia over the
weekend. Te Jayhawks
won their frst three games
handily, but fell to defending
national champion Penn State
in straight sets in their fnal
match.
Kansas breezed through its
frst three matches, kicking
of the Classic with a win in
straight sets against Villanova
(4-7), 25-12, 27-25, 25-19
Friday. Freshman setter
Ainise Havili led the way for
the Jayhawks, recording her
third consecutive double-
double, with 33 assists and
11 digs. Sophomore middle
blocker Tayler Soucie gave
the Wildcats trouble at the net
all game as well, recording a
season-high 10 blocks.
Its really important to start
with a 3-0 win, coach Ray
Bechard said. We played so
much volleyball this weekend
that if we can come out, do
good work and not have to
overextend ourselves, thats
the route to go.
Te Jayhawks kept the
momentum rolling into the
second match later in the day,
defeating four-time defending
Ivy League champion Yale (2-
4) in straight sets, 25-22, 25-
15, 25-21. Soucie was a major
contributor again, this time
logging a career-high .652
kill percentage with nine kills
and no kill errors. Freshman
middle blocker Kayla Cheadle
led the team with 12 kills and
sophomore libero Cassie Wait
chipped in 20 digs.
Tere were stretches during
the Yale match that we played
as well as weve played all year,
Bechard said.
Kansas began Saturday by
beating defending Patriot
League champion American
(5-4) in four sets, 19-25, 25-20,
25-16, 25-17. Afer dropping
the frst set, the Jayhawks
battled back with a series of
scoring runs, jumping out to
a 7-1 lead in the third set, and
then a 10-1 lead to begin the
fourth. Senior outside hitter
Chelsea Albers led Kansas,
recording a double-double,
logging 11 digs and a career-
high 22 kills.
American played at a level
that we knew they were going
to play at, Bechard said. Tey
are very clean ofensively, but
we just couldnt get into a
defense rhythm. I thought
we were siding out OK, but
defensively we fnally settled
down in the second set. We
really played well afer that.
In their fnal match, the
Jayhawks ran into defending
national champion Penn State,
dropping the game in straight
sets, 10-25, 25-27, 23-25.
Afer a brutal frst set, Kansas
recovered to give the Nittany
Lions a difcult time in sets
two and three, but ultimately
the defending national
champions were simply too
much. Freshman outside hitter
Madison Rigdon fnished with
a team-leading 11 kills and a
.333 kill percentage.
Tere are some things to
take away from this to feel
good about, but we wont settle
for a three-set loss either,
Bechard said. Even though
sets two and three were close,
youve got to fnd a way to at
least get one of those to extend
the match.
Kansas will return to action
Friday when it takes on
North Texas at Horejsi Family
Athletics Center at noon.

KEEPING PERFECTION
Kansas soccer continued its
historic start to the season
by winning a pair of home
games this weekend. The
Jayhawks improved their
record to 8-0, which is the
best record to start a season
and the longest winning
streak in program history.
The Crimson and Blue
came into the weekend with
plenty of momentum built
up after sweeping two games
in Colorado last weekend,
vaulting them into the top-
25 rankings at No. 20.
On Friday night, Cal
State Northridge came to
Lawrence on a cold, windy
night hoping to cool down
the Jayhawk offense, but
came out unsuccessful.
Senior midfielder Jamie
Fletcher returned to action
after missing the first six
games due to injury. She
scored ten goals in her first
three seasons at Kansas and
didnt waste time adding
another.
Fletcher scored the first
goal of the match in the
74th minute, which ended
up being the game winner
as the Jayhawks shutout the
Matadors. Kansas added
another goal just before time
expired as junior forward
Ashley Williams picked up a
pass from senior forward Ali
Kimura to score her second
of the season and secure the
teams seventh victory.
The final score was 2-0,
good for Kansas third
shutout of the season.
I was happy with the
performance, coach Mark
Francis said. It was a bit of a
fight, and we knew we would
get that from these guys, but
Im glad we were able to pull
it out in the end.
On Sunday, the University
of Missouri-Kansas City
made the 45-mile trip to
Lawrence to take on the
undefeated Jayhawks. Like
Friday, neither team scored
in the first half.
Although Kansas didnt
score in the first half, it still
dominated the offensive
possession and had 13
shots to UMKCs zero. The
Jayhawks had several good
scoring opportunities, but
a couple of diving saves by
Kangaroo goalkeeper Nina
Tzianos helped keep the
game scoreless.
Scoring was hard to come
by in the second half, too. It
wasnt until the 82nd minute
when junior forward Ashley
Williams scored a goal to put
the Jayhawks up late. It was
the only goal Kansas needed.
Kansas led the way and
controlled most of the
scoring opportunities with
27 shots and 12 on goal.
UMKC only recorded three
shots.
Thats kind of soccer,
Williams said. You can
outplay a team and still not
score a goal. I thought we did
a really good job at staying
focused and it came together
at the end.
UMKC made a late push,
but it wasnt enough when the
final whistle blew and Kansas
won 1-0, notching its second
shutout of the weekend and
fourth of the season.
I was a little bit
disappointed with our lack
of focus in the beginning of
the game, but the second half
was better, Francis said.

Its really important to start


with a 3-0 win. We played so
much volleyball this weekend
that if we can come out, do
good work and not have to
overextend ourselves, thats
the route to go.
