The SMU men’s basketball team defeated the Rice Owls for the second time this season in a 76-66 overtime victory Wednesday night at Moody Coliseum.

“We had to win that game twice,” Head Coach Matt Doherty said. “I’m really proud of how the guys responded. They could have sunk emotionally.”

With seven seconds left in regulation play, the Owls’ Connor Frizzelle hit a three-pointer to bring Rice within two points. Three seconds later, Rice’s leading scorer Arsalan Kazemi followed it up with two free throws to tie the game at 57-57.

COLLEGE REPUBLICANS

Many people do not think about the state of Israel beyond its political significance; however, it is a dynamic and vibrant country. With an exotic and historically rich culture, Israel has major urban cities, picturesque beaches and a thriving economy.

Hillel of Dallas and SMU Jewish Students Association hosted the Israel Fair Wednesday afternoon.

The purpose of the fair was to “celebrate Israel,” Rabbi Heidi Cortez, director of Hillel of Dallas, explained.

Eric Cohen, a representative from the Academic Affairs of the Israel Consult in Dallas, promoted Israeli-American cultural understanding.

The Israel Consult was thrilled that

they were invited to meet with SMU students.

“We’re excited to be here. We’re here to talk about Israel and the shared values between Israel and [the] United States,” Cohen said.

Hughes-Triggs Student Center Commons was decorated in blue and white Israel flags and tables were set up promoting Israel study abroad opportunities and cultural information.

Members of the Hillel of Dallas community provided a free lunch of pita chips, hummus and falafel for SMU students.

Freshman pre-medical students Karin Kuusito and Alison Liu both enjoyed sampling Israeli food. Engineering student Roman Stolyarov agreed that the food was delicious. He attended the fair because he wanted to “learn some new

information about Israeli culture.” Students were given the

opportunity to have their names written in Hebrew while Hebrew rock music blasted in the background.

Freshman Brad Graves felt that the authentic international music was a great touch to fair.

The fair also promoted travel and educational experiences between America and Israel.

Miranda Weiner from the Center for Jewish Education of Jewish Federal of Greater Dallas distributed flyers and packets regarding service trips and various study abroad opportunities in Israel.

“It’s becoming more and more popular to study abroad in Israel. There’s something for everyone,” Weiner said.

Students celebrate Israel, get a taste of country’s culture

Wick Allison, founder and publisher of D Magazine, Dallas’s premier citywide publication, spoke to SMU’s College Republicans about the meaning and significance of urban development and expansion in Dallas Wednesday evening.

Allison was invited on behalf of the College Republicans to give a relatively non-partisan perspective on the importance of issues such as infrastructure, commerce and taxes, specifically in Texas with emphasis on the Dallas area.

Because SMU has so many out-of-state students, College Republicans wanted them to learn about Texas’ history.

President of the College Republicans Chad Cohen said, “We want them to feel a greater sense of pride in our city, and also to understand that it doesn’t matter if you’re a Democrat or a Republican. Issues are still issues, and they affect us all.”

Allison began his lecture with a history lesson over the workings of great ancient cities and democracies, such as Athens. He went on to tell how

thousands of years later, the leaders of young Dallas looked back at such historical places and used the same ideas to build modern-day Dallas.

“Great people talk to each other through the ages by what they do and what they leave behind,” Allison said.

The introduction of the lecture was more of a vocabulary lesson than a history lesson. Allison explained the word “commonwealth” as “the combination of resources and the building of wealth together,” emphasizing the importance of unity in a city’s leadership and people when working toward a common goal.

Allison explained that the secret to Dallas’ success has always been in the people’s investments in the city itself. He cited examples such as the DFW airport, large road construction projects and the economic accessibility that has attracted corporations to Dallas over the past century.

Dallas is currently the ninth largest city in America and is still growing. It is one of a handful of cities that continued to build during the economic recession.

Dallas is home to a dozen Fortune 500 companies. When the number of private and public corporations’

It’s not too late to save for spring break

Spring break is right around the corner. While it may be too late to get the best deals on airfare or hotels, it’s time to save for smaller expenditures. Everyone could use a little play money come March 12. Dinner out on the town or beachside beverages can get pricey, so save up.

Over the next two weeks take note of purchases you could go without and modify your spending patterns. Think of

it as bikini season for your checkbook. It’s time to whip it into shape. Save now and you’ll appreciate the extra cushion in your bank account. It would be a pity to be on vacation, of all places, anxious about money.

Every day the line for bagels and

coffee on campus is stacked solid. Try investing in a coffee pot. Better yet, drink water. It’s better for your teeth.

Need caffeine to stay awake? Try vitamins or working out to boost your energy. You’ll save some cash skimping on the brew.

Men in tuxedos and women dressed to the nines stood on the red carpet on Wednesday waiting until it was their turn to take a photo with one of Dallas’ leading businesswomen and philanthropists, Ebby Halliday.

More than 800 people joined

Halliday at the Foundation Fighting Blindness (FFB) to honor her 100th birthday with a “Roast & Toast” at the Hilton Anatole.

“I don’t know of anyone who doesn’t love Ebby,” former Dallas Cowboy quarterback Roger Staubach said. “She’s using that love to have a big birthday party to benefit someone else.”

As the largest private funder of retinal degenerative disease research in the world, The Foundation Fighting Blindness raised approximately $700,000 through the event.

GETTING THE BIG PICTUREWHO WILL WIN SUNDAY’S MOST COVETED AWARD?

1 THE KING’S SPEECHTHE KING’S SPEECHAfter the Golden Globes, it seemed like nothing was going to stop “The

Social Network,” as it continuously racked up numerous awards left and right. However, after winning the “Guild Triple Crown,” (Screen Actor Guild, Director Guild of America, and Producer Guild of America) it seems as if “The King’s Speech” is peaking at the perfect time. With stunning performances by the trio of Collin Firth, Geoffery Rush and Helen Bonham Carter, “The King’s Speech” has the acting talent to back up its creative story telling. Although, “The Social Network” still has a slight chance to win big, our money’s on “The King Speech.”

2THE SOCIAL NETWORKTHE SOCIAL NETWORKThe Facebook centered film was the early favorite for “Best Picture,” and

up until a month ago, it looked like director David Fincher would walk away victorious. However, as “The King’s Speech” gained steam, “The Social Network” fell behind. With an awe-inspiring script penned by the talented Aaron Sorkin and great performances by Hollywood up-an-comers Jessie Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield, “The Social Network,” is a solid runner-up.

3 TRUE GRITTRUE GRITIt’s not often to see a western nominated for “Best Picture,” however

leave it up to the Coen brothers, the film’s directors, to make it happen. Even though “True Grit” may be a remake of John Wayne’s classic, the film is deceptively modern. While “True Grit’s” chances of winning Best Picture are almost less than none, the film was the Coen brothers’ most successful, and for that, it should be recognized.

4BLACK SWANBLACK SWANA monochromatic masterpiece in terms of direction, “Black Swan” showed

the dark side of professional ballet. As Darren Aronofsky’s best movie to date, “Black Swan” still has no chance at winning Best Picture. However, the film’s star, Natalie Portman, is the absolute front-runner to win for Best Actress. That trophy will have to be what the film settles for.

5 THE FIGHTERTHE FIGHTERPerhaps the most traditionally “American”

of the ten films nominated for best picture, the boxing based ‘The Fighter,” is a long shot to come out as the night’s big winner. Even though the film has a good standing to win two acting trophies, Producer Mark Whalberg should just consider it an honor to be nominated.

6 TOY STORY 3TOY STORY 3Perhaps the best animated film ever made,

“Toy Story 3” was the perfect final film for one of Hollywood’s most recognizable franchises. While “Toy Story 3” is almost a polarizing favorite to win the trophy for Best Animated Film, its chances at nabbing the Best Picture title is about as real as its characters.

7 127 HOURS127 HOURSComing just two years after director

Danny Bole won big for his Indian-based film “Slumdog Millionaire,” the British icon is back again with “127 Hours.” While the film was critically acclaimed and featured a jaw-dropping performance by James Franco, the stories solidarity, and at times, grossness, will keep it from winning Best Picture.

8 INCEPTIONINCEPTIONChristopher Nolan’s latest box-office smash,

“Inception,” is perhaps the most mainstream of the movies nominated. While it featured a great cast, as well as beautiful performances by Leonardo Dicaprio and Marion Cotillard, “Inception’s” chances at winning an Oscar are better focused on the technical categories.

9 WINTER’S BONEWINTER’S BONEAs the grittiest of the ten films nominated, “Winter’s

Bone” was a clear standout during this year’s festival circuit. While the film is carried by the lead, Jenifer Lawrence’s, gripping portrayal as a daughter out to find her slain father, “The Winter’s Bone,” may actually walk away with Sunday without winning an award at all.

1010 THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHTTHE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHTEvery year, it seems as if there is always that one

film that blew up the film festival circuit that makes it way to a Best Picture nomination. This year, “The Kids Are All Right” played that role perfectly. While the film’s lead, Annette Benning, has a fighting shot at winning the trophy for Best Actress, in terms of Best Picture, this film has no chance.

SHE DID WHAT?WHY MELLISA LEO LOST HERSELF AN OSCAR

Playing Mark Whalberg’s determined mother in “The Fighter,” Melissa Leo was the front-runner for Best Supporting Actress come Oscar night. Picking up numerous critic awards and the major pre-cursor, the Golden Globe, it seemed like nothing could stop Leo from receiving her first Oscar. However, as the old proverb goes to say, we all are our own worst enemies. To promote herself in the race to the trophy, Leo dispersed numerous “For Your Consideration,” ads in a variety of Hollywood trades. The ads depicted Leo as super glamorous, and in a sense, became the laughing stock in Academy voting. Leo has gone back and forth in regards to if the ads were her idea or not, but ultimately, the ads are probably going to be the only thing stopping Leo from winning a trophy. With worry of the votes being split between Leo and her costar Amy Adams, it looks as if Hollywood’s youngest nominee, Hailee Steinfield of “True Grit,” will walk away as the night’s Best Supporting Actress.

F R A N C OF R A N C O

James Franco has been around for years, and his screen credits include a wide variety of roles, from Harry Osborn in the “Spider Man” movies to Saul Silver in “Pineapple Express” and now he is the first host of the Oscars that might be accepting an award himself for his performance as Aron Ralston in “127 Hours.”

Franco got his start on the fleeting series “Freaks and Geeks,” but made it big as the best friend to the arachnid superhero in the popular Marvel film trilogy.

Anne Hathaway’s first introduction to the big screen might have been “The Princess Diaries,” but as her career has developed her reputation has blossomed and she is the perfect co-host for James Franco.

The 28-year-old actress was born in Brooklyn, N.Y. was a trained stage actress who found herself thrown into the world of when she was cast as Jean Sabin in “The Other Side of Heaven.” She was then cast as Mia Thermopolis in “The Princess Diaries,” which had an earlier release date and this film’s popularity with tweens thrust her into national spotlight.

Although she made several attempts to break out of being the young girl’s

Vice President of College Republicans, Daniel Summa, a sophomore economics major, said, “I care more about this city now that I have a better understanding of its historical significance.”

Cohen, who grew up in Dallas, agrees.

“As someone who’s grown up here, it’s exciting to see how Dallas fits into history. I always took its vibrancy for granted, but now I really appreciate the effort it took to get us here,” he said.

the disease. She was inducted as the national trustee of FFB in 2010.

“This is a great partnership and Ebby is in the center of it,” Co-founder and chairman of Foundation Fighting Blindness Gordon Gund said. “Because of your [Halliday] incredible generosity, the world is a brighter place.”

Dressed in a black sweater covered in shimmering jewels, Halliday was escorted to her table by Staubach as the number “100” was displayed on two big screens at the front of the hotel’s ballroom.

As she walked to her table, a special performance from Ross Perot, Congressman Pete Sessions and Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes, joined by other members of the Ebby Halliday Centennial All Male Review, sang, “Well hello Ebby…You’re looking swell Ebby!”

The evening, which was kicked off by a silent auction and reception, featured performances by some of Halliday’s favorite organizations, including the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, Dallas Ukulele Headquarters and The Happy Hill Farm Academy Choir.

Tony Orlando, an American singer and one of Halliday’s all time favorites, serenaded Halliday and the crowd as he sang “Candida.”

When Orlando began singing Halliday’s favorite song, “Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree,” she stood up, took Orlando’s hand and

danced with him, occasionally singing along into the mic.

Though the crowd was entertained by the performances, it was also touched as various people close to Halliday took the stage to give her a toast.

“People have benefited not just from what she is, but who she is,” Sessions said.

Gund said, “She is truly an extraordinary woman. She has made an incredible impact on this community—an impact like no other.”

Mayor Tom Leppert sent the crowd into roars of laughter as he said, “I’ve honored a lot of people during my four years as mayor, but I saved the best for last. Ebby evokes the American dream, the American story. She represents what is good and great about our nation.”

Halliday was flattered by the success of her birthday bash as well as the amount of money raised for FFB.

“People are very kind and have really arranged some fabulous recognition of my 100th birthday,” she said.

The “Roast & Toast” event was co-chaired by Margot and Ross Perot, Madeleine and T. Boone Pickens, Ruth and Kenneth Atshuler, M.D., Nita and The Honorable Pete Sessions, Llura and Gordon Gund, Roger Horchow, Laura and The Honorable Tom Leppert, Gene and Jerry Jones and Marinna and Roger Staubach.

FINANCE: ‘It’s bikini season for your checkbook’

With a passion for music and a knack for discovering new artists, junior Mikayla Moyer decided to take her hobby a step further and create her own music blog.

Moyer began her site “Loose Lips” (Looselipsmusic.com) in May of 2010 with the slogan, “Loose Lips sink ships, but good music shouldn’t be kept secret.” She worked single-handedly to format the site and began to find music, contact artists and labels, network and write reviews.

“Loose Lips” is one of many student-run music blogs to hit the Web this school year as music blogging grows in popularity for students to display or find new tunes.

Although Loose Lips features predominantly indie rock, electronic and house music, it is all what she calls “middle ground music.” That is, music that she thinks the vast majority of her readers will enjoy, regardless of whether or not they are familiar with the band or the genre.

Without any personal advertisement of her blog, Loose Lips was added to the Hype Machine (Hypem.com) in late December after someone submitted her work.

“It was somewhat of a fairytale when I got listed on the Hype Machine—which is arguably the most ‘elite’ aggregator of music blogs that has a really strict application and acceptance process,” she said.

On average, Loose Lips now receives 1,000 page views per day, up from 100 page views per day less than two months ago.

“Since then I’ve had to kind of legitimize myself and focus on keeping my blog more regular and formal, like a real magazine,” she said. “If other people are watching, I should very well try to make it the best that I can.”

Record labels, promotion companies and bands have contacted Moyer about her blog and have presented her with new music to post.

Recently, Moyer received her first promotional e-mail from Sony Records to feature one of their artists on “Loose Lips.”

“Web blogs are essentially an extension of their advertising and promotional campaigns. Minor labels are sending blogs their songs in order to help garner their artists more publicity,” Moyer said.

When Moyer receives or finds music, she is mostly concerned with the promotion of the artists. She listens to the song at least five times and will only post it if she enjoys the song more with each listen.

“When I post a song to my site you can be guaranteed that it’s been tried and tested, and I believe fully in it,” Moyer said.

SMU senior Connor Davidson, creator of Samplethemusic.com, frequents the Web for music, including “Loose Lips.”

“Once you find a couple that you can rely on, and you know that the writer is sifting through and picking out only the best tunes, you really don’t need to go anywhere else to find good music,” Davidson said.

A follower of “Loose Lips,” SMU sophomore Katie Roberts shares a similar thrill in music blogs because of a sense of freedom and control the reader and writers feel.

“When you listen to the radio, the only control you have is what station to listen to. On music blogs, you can choose what you want to read, pay attention to, download, or listen to,” Roberts said.

When students like Roberts turn away from mainstream media and look to the Web for new music, they are presented with an overload of music and information. This is where Moyers hopes for “Loose Lips” to play a role.

“My goal is to get these under-appreciated-but-supremely-talented musicians a little bit of recognition,” Moyer said.

The history of Native Americans in this country is one of tragedy, destruction and death. America has broken treaty after treaty with

the Native American people, forcing them onto barren reservation lands and killing anyone who gets in the way.

Traditional Native American culture is founded on living off the land and surviving from what mother Earth gives you. However, when the Native American people were forced to move to reservations, subsisting from the land became decidedly more difficult.

Reservation territories lacked arable land, and many tribes lost their ability to survive from the crops they’d always grown.

Many Native Americans today are faced with destitute poverty, harsh living conditions and short life spans. In 2009, the median family income of Native Americans living on reservations was $6,500. The unemployment rate was 60 to 90 percent, and the life expectancy at birth was 31.2 years.

In an effort to crawl out of this mire of destitution, many Native Americans

have begun to grow industrial hemp. The plant can be planted, harvested and sold in 120 days with large profit margins. For many Native American families, hemp could be their way out of poverty, premature death and disease.

Hemp comes from the cannabis plant—the same plant comes from medical and recreational marijuana. The difference, however, is that industrial hemp has low or undetectable levels of THC (the psychoactive chemical that causes intoxication).

Industrial hemp can be used in many ways: for paper, bracelets, rope and oil. Hemp oil is even used as a dietary supplement or as skin treatment for eczema.

The endeavor to grow industrial hemp is met with one large, resolute obstacle: the American government. Most, if not all, of the Native Americans who have attempted to grow industrial hemp have been overpowered and strong-armed by the U.S. government, forcing them to abandon hemp cultivation.

The White Plume family of the Lakota tribe—a tribe mostly in South Dakota and part of the Sioux—tried to grow industrial hemp to make a cash profit and save their land. They grew the hemp within the confines of their reservation. They regulated the

plants to insure that there were low, non-intoxicating levels of THC. To their surprise, the hemp plants thrived on their land.

Just as the plants arrived at harvesting height, armed officials from the U.S. came into the reservation, cut down the hemp plants, shipped them into a government truck, and took them away. All of this was done without notification, without authorization from the chiefs and without police escorts.

The U.S. government went so far as to ban the White Plume family from growing hemp in the Lakota reservation. Their cries for justice fell on deaf ears in the courts.

These actions by the government are not a matter of plant regulation or production of illegal substances. The family had insured the THC levels were non-intoxicating. The hemp wasn’t even going to be sold to an American company. It was going to be shipped directly to Canada. Quite simply, this is an issue of tribal sovereignty.

Despite your opinions on hemp, cannabis, or U.S. drug policy, the fact is that the U.S. (at least in name) recognizes Native Americans to have tribal sovereignty. According to American policy, Native American tribes are to be treated as autonomous nations.

Do we tell China, Germany or Canada what they can or can’t grow? Do we send armed American officials into South Africa or Brazil without informing them first? Do we cut down plants in India or Mexico without any explanation? Do we rob Turkey or France from their only hope for economic advancement?

No. We don’t. Even American states have more recognized sovereignty than Native American tribes and nations.

This country has for too long ignored the territorial and tribal sovereignty of the Native Americans in this country. If they are sovereign and if the land they live on is not American soil, then they should be able to grow on it what they like. There is no justification for invading another country, stealing its agricultural resources, and placing moratoriums on production.

Industrial hemp may be the most recent symptom, but the disease is America’s obstinate disregard toward Native American sovereignty. If allowed to persist, this disease will murder our Native American brothers and sisters.

major. He can be reached for comments or questions at dkonow@smu.edu.

ILLUSTRATION

Being a student at Southern Methodist University is being a part of something very special.

SMU is an institution that empowers students from a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences to accomplish incredible things.

As our university enters its’ second century of existence, I would like to pose a challenge to our students to step up and get involved. We have hundreds of students who are heavily involved in a wide range of activities, but we also have a hundreds of students who are only involved in one or two extra-curricular activities and don’t really reach out beyond that.

SMU is consistently investing millions upon millions in improving every aspect of our university and we have succeeded in achieving enormous growth and development from where we stood two decades ago.

As a student body, we have to embrace this growth and become a part of it.

That means getting involved in whatever interests you to the best

of your ability. Being a member of a club, team, or organization has little meaning if you don’t actively contribute.

My experience at SMU has been enormously enhanced by finding organizations that I liked and wanted to be a part of and then investing as much time and effort as I could afford to make that organization stronger and more effective.

Finding your niche at SMU shouldn’t be hard. We have hundreds of organizations to choose to be a part of and each of those organizations has dozens of ways to get involved.

While we have many very capable and wonderful leaders on our campus, many organizations on campus are struggling from a lack of effective leadership and need more brilliant and motivated SMU students to get involved.

Whatever your calling might be, I encourage you to take it to the next level and take part in something bigger than yourself. That may mean starting an entirely new organization, which is no easy task. However, hard

work and dedication can pay off in spades.

A good, recent example comes from an academic program that has developed into a professional student organization and a student research initiative with incredible opportunities.

Last spring, SMU Tower Center Forum opened up an organization for students called the Tower Center Student Forum. In one year, their membership has grown from a handful of political science students into a diverse group of well over 300 students.

This effort was led by a few students here at SMU with collaboration from the Tower Center because those students and faculty cared about making something unique and meaningful that would enhance the education of any interested SMU students.

My hope is that our student body at SMU can become more involved in improving our university as we move forward into this Centennial celebration.

If there are things that you want to change or enhance, do it. Leadership on the part of our students can make deep and impactful changes on our campus that will progressively evolve the SMU experience for everyone long-term.

If you aren’t sure how to start, reach out to your professors, advisors, your student senator, our student body president, our student trustee, or leaders in whichever organization that you may have interest in. SMU has a long, prestigious history of creating leaders in the professional, philanthropic, religious and academic worlds.

SMU has so many resources at your disposal; I encourage all of our students to take full advantage of them!

POLL RESULTSWhen Michael Dearman articulated the deleterious international effects of U.S. drug consumption on Mexican safety, there was an uproar that assumed he was advocating for the termination of marijuana usage, an unlikely and naive posture. I believe that this was not his intention.

Dearman chose to look beyond the United States’ border to better understand the relationship between the raging war on drugs in Mexico and high-levels of drug consumption in the U.S. The

overwhelming response from readers was simple - legalize marijuana. Much like during the prohibition era in the U.S., legalizing the substance will reduce illegal activity and eradicate a black market.

While I agree that this worked historically in the U.S., I do not believe that it is the solution for Mexico’s woes. As a citizen of the latter, I am neither commenting on the feasibility of marijuana legalization in the United States, nor am I making a normative claim about this policy. Instead, I argue that legalizing marijuana is not the solution to the violence south of the U.S. border.

The drug war in Mexico spiked to the extraordinary levels that we see today when the violence between the cartels escalated in recent years. Though attributable to various factors, it is probable that the shrink in the U.S. cocaine market was influential. If this is the case, then the legalization of marijuana in the United States or the increased growth thereof domestically would only result in increased violence as well. The drug-trafficking organizations (DTOs) would struggle violently to gain control of the diminishing market.

The DTOs might also presumably turn to other black market activities to attempt economic hegemony there. Perhaps the sales of pirated movies and music, or maybe the illegal crossing of migrants, or sex trafficking. There is no shortage of options.

The control of these illegal, but influential sectors would only augment the cartels’ power and social dominance. Corruption is not new to the DTOs, and there would be no decrease in this, despite the legalization of marijuana.

Furthermore, what has been referred to as a “grey market” could also likely emerge. As the state taxes marijuana, the cartels can continue to dominate the market by selling marijuana more cheaply.

The solution to the oppressive war on drugs in Mexico is more systemic and deeply rooted in the failures of Mexican institutions. There is no shortcut, not even legalization of marijuana.

Calderon’s overt declaration of war and his exerted efforts to train a capable police force are a good start. Reform of the justice system must be next, along with the creation of jobs and another look at public education.

There is no shortage of room for growth, but there is also no alternative. Legalization of marijuana in the United States and/or in Mexico will never address the true short-comings of the U.S.’s neighbor.

role model, it wasn’t until her role in “Brokeback Mountain” (also with Gyllenhall) that moviegoers began to see Hathaway’s skill as a dramatic actress.

She has since gone on to star in the blockbuster “The Devil Wears Prada” with Meryl Streep, as well as having roles in “Rachel Getting Married,” Tim Burton’s “Alice and Wonderland” and most recently “Love and Other Drugs.”

She and Franco are an interesting choice for Oscars’ hosts after last year’s funny-men duo of Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin. Although Hathaway can hit a punch line with spot-on comedic timing under a good director, it seems unlikely that she can come up with her own jokes.

Stand-up comedy is not necessarily the role of Oscars hosts, but the more popular years have always had funny people making the transitions between heart-felt, tear-wrenching speeches and restoring the pleasant atmosphere of the night.

Plus, it will be interesting to see how things work out if Franco finds that he needs to accept a golden statuette of his own.

BASKETBALL: Nyakundi scores game high 26 points, Dia adds 20freshman starter made up for it by hitting a shot from behind the arc in the first minute of extra minutes to give his team the final lead of the game.

“It just happened that Collin [Mangrum] had a good pass to me so it’s because he made a play that I got the open shot and was lucky enough to knock it down,” Samarrippas said.

Tamir Jackson from Rice, who finished the night with a team-high 20 points fouled out 40 seconds in as Rice looked to be closing the gap again but Robert Nyakundi hit two free throws after the foul to put the Mustangs up 62-59.

Up by six with 1:19 left in overtime, Samarrippas drove to the basket for a clutch lay up, leading to SMU’s largest lead in overtime.

SMU never looked back as they sealed their first overtime win of the season.

“You want to turn any negative into a positive,” Doherty said. “To the kids’ credit, they responded. They went out and played a sensational overtime period. It was a hard fought game.”

In the first half, Rice came within three points of the Mustangs with eight minutes left but SMU (17-10, 8-5 Conference USA) quickly climbed ahead of the Owls after a three-pointer from senior Collin Mangrum, which gave SMU a 26-18 lead with 2:25 remaining.

Scoring only two free throws within the final nine minutes of the opening half, Rice (12-15, 4-9 C-USA) missed their final 11 shots, while SMU was able to capitalize on eight unanswered

points.SMU, now having won four of

their last five home games, went into the break leading 27-18 after holding Rice to only 6-of-21 from the field and generating ten points off Owl turnovers.

With already seven points and rebounds in the first half, Papa Dia went on to record his 12th double double of the season and 25th of his career.

Nyakundi, with 12 of his 26 points in the first half, finished the night shooting a game-high seven shots from the field.

Rice controlled the start of the second half, outscoring SMU 10-1, tying the game at 28-28 off a three-pointer from Lucas Kuipers with 16:41 left but the Owls’ lead was short-lived.

SMU’s Justin Haynes regained the lead for SMU with a two-point bucket, sparking another 10-1 run from SMU.

The run was then topped off by a slam-dunk by Dia from teammate Mike Walker, leading to a 43-28 SMU lead with 13:51 remaining.

Seconds later, Dia had his first block of the game, shutting down an attempt from Rice’s Kazemi.

As the No. 8 team in the country in field goal percentage, SMU finished the night shooting 38 percent from the field.

Also leading the conference in three-point percentage, Nyakundi led his team with 12 points from behind the arc.

Dia nailed two free throws to give SMU a game-high 11-point lead with 8:50 left to seal the win.

He finished the night with 20 points, 13 rebounds, two blocks and two steals

Rice, looking for their second consecutive win after defeating Memphis last weekend, shot only 39 percent in field goals and 40 percent in threes while also giving up 20 points off turnovers.

After winning seven of their last nine games, SMU remains in fourth place in Conference USA standings, just one game out of first place.

“We’re guaranteed a winning season so this has been pretty darn rewarding for this team and this coaching staff,” Doherty said.

In the 192nd meeting between the conference rivals, SMU improved to 118-74 all-time against the Owls. Wednesday night’s victory marks the most wins the Mustangs have over any

opponent.Since the first game between the

teams in 1918, SMU and Rice have been members of the same conference for the last 93 years.

Prior to joining Conference USA in 2005, both teams were members of the Western Athletic and Southwest Conferences.

The Mustangs have two road games left on the regular season starting with Marshall University on Saturday.

Marshall is currently in seventh place in Conference USA with a 19-9 (7-6) record. The Thundering Herd is led by guard Damier Pitts who is averaging 15.3 points and 4.0 assists per game.

SMU’s final home game of the season will be on March 5 when the team hosts University of Texas at El Paso at 2 p.m. in Moody Coliseum.
