The Registered Student Organization Campus Spirit Revival and the Native American Indigenous Student Organiza-tion hosted a forum at Gregory Hall on Tuesday concerning whether Chief Illini-wek, the University’s 80-year-old tradi-tion, should be reinstated.

Tayana Panova, NAISO member and junior in LAS, said Campus Spirit Reviv-al hosted a contest to choose a new mas-cot, bringing forth protests from both students and alumni still hoping for the Chief’s return. Among those who voted in the spring 2013 referendum, support for Chief Illiniwek as the official symbol of the University was overwhelming with 9,003 votes in favor and more than 2,517 against.

Xochitl Sandoval, president of NAISO

and junior in LAS, began the forum by explaining some of the group’s reasons why they believe Chief Illiniwek is degrad-ing to Native American culture.

“Today society has stereotyped and romanticized images of Native people,” Sandoval said. “There has become a sexu-al image of Native Americans. Today, Hol-lywood has created a stereotypical image of what Native people are.”

After a brief history of Native culture was given, guests were open to discuss their personal opinions. The majority of the room was in favor of eliminating the Chief, while others proposed requiring educational courses.

Robert Heath, University alumnus, said the Chief could be eliminated because stu-dents are unaware of its history.

“There’s no history class or education

behind it. It wouldn’t bother me if we were the Fighting Illini in the mind and body, but everyone knows the Chief, but no one knows the history or what it stands for,” he said.

Though a majority of those present were ready to move past the Chief, Ivan Dozier, junior in ACES, said the Chief is an impor-tant figure at the University.

“This has been embedded in the com-munity,” Dozier said. “If it’s here, we should use it to our advantage. The inten-tions of the mascot do have merit. The intentions were never evil.”

The forum closed with debating future ideas for moving forward.

Illinois lawmakers face a quickly approaching deadline to ratify new concealed carry legislation before the state’s concealed carry ban, which was enacted earlier this year, expires June 10.

Illinois is the only state without a concealed carry law. The federal court gave Illinois 180 days to draft legisla-tion concerning a concealed carry law.

If a law is not passed by June 10, anyone will be allowed to carry a con-cealed weapon virtually anywhere in Illinois.

Following recent shootings, nota-bly in Aurora, Colo., and Newtown, Conn., Gov. Pat Quinn said he is ready to enact new legislation concerning concealed carry.

“(We have to) listen to what people are saying all over our state, all over our country,” Quinn said at the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence rally in Springfield on Thursday. “It’s time for gun safety legislation.”

Last week, House Bill 0148, a bill on concealed carry, was not passed by the Illinois House.

Christopher Dayton, Illinois stu-dent senator and senior in LAS, said this bill was offered and sponsored by Republicans and would have few restrictions, so everyone eligible to own a gun could carry a concealed weapon.

Dayton said the more important bill that is still being considered is House Bill 1155, which is a Democratic bill sponsored by Speaker Mike Madi-gan, D-22. Dayton also said he thinks it has the highest probability of being passed.

House Bill 1155 contains more restrictions concerning where some-one can carry a weapon, but Dayton said it is not as specific as some would prefer. For example, under this bill,

a location such as Newman Residence Hall, 604 E. Armory Ave., would be seen as an apartment in the eyes of the law. If this law is passed as is, anyone eligible to own a gun would be legally able to bring a firearm into the dorm. The same detail is need-ed when considering fraternity and sorority housing.

“You’re introducing firearms into a very volatile area, where we know for a fact alcohol consumption is very high, emotional tensions run high, class stresses and possibly the use of illegal narcotics,” Dayton said. “While I fully believe in the individual’s right to own and carry a concealed weap-on, we (need to) prevent it from being done in an atmosphere that could pose harm to others.”

One of the facets being debated is the idea of limiting high-capacity mag-azines that can be bought. This would limit the amount of bullets that can be fired at one time, which would limit the number of victims in a shooting.

“If (the concealed carry policy) is enacted into law, then we’ll react to it,” said Skip Frost, deputy chief of Uni-versity Police. “I can’t see it chang-ing the policy on campus where guns and weapons basically are prohibited (unless) you have the written author-ity of the chief of police.”

Frost said that local police have been in contact with other large pub-lic universities, like those in Wiscon-sin, about new policies when the con-cealed carry law is ratified.

Officials at the University of Wis-consin-Madison posted signs clarify-ing that students cannot carry weap-ons near locations like the student union and other common areas.

“It’s as simple as if they raised the speed limit to 45 mph instead of 35 mph on campus,” Frost said. “Would

Tastes and sounds of IsraelBattery tech moves forward

BY JANELLE O’DEASTAFF WRITER

Xerion Advanced Battery Corporation is continuing to work on mass-producing a new battery technology from its offices in the University’s Research Park.

The technology, called Struc-turePore, was developed by a University professor Paul Braun and his research team, Braun Research Group. Bat-teries using StructurePore are able to fully charge cell phones and other electronics in less than a minute.

After almost a decade of work, the research team solidi-fied the technology in late 2010. Braun invited University alum-nus John Busbee to Champaign to co-found Xerion Advanced Battery Corp. at the Research Park so the technology could

be commercialized.“Given the tremendous

potential of the technology, I left my position as Program Manager of Nanotechnology in the Materials Directorate of the Air Force Research Lab-oratory to co-found the compa-ny,” Busbee said.

He said Xerion Advanced Battery Corp. hopes to become a domestic manufacturer of lithium-ion, single-cell bat-teries, which can be used in a variety of electronic products, including cell phones.

The cutting-edge battery has a different electrode structure than other batteries currently on the market. Electrodes are the components in a battery responsible for storing elec-trical energy.

Illinois Marathon re-evaluates safety

DAILY ILLINI STAFF REPORT

Illinois Marathon officials decided to re-evaluate securi-ty measures in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings.

Marathon officials will meet Wednesday with represen-tatives from the Champaign Police Department, the Urbana Police Department, University Police, the Champaign County

Police, Illinois State Police and Mahomet police to discuss safe-ty for the local races that are scheduled to take place April 25-27.

“We’re going to continue to monitor what’s going on in Bos-ton and apply what we know from there to our marathon and make determinations to ensure public safety as much as we can,” said Scott Friedlein, Illinois Marathon emergency services coordinator.

Friedlein added that officers from all six agencies will be used mostly for traffic-related services. Other officers will be assigned to Memorial Stadium

for security purposes. The Illi-nois Marathon route starts near Assembly Hall, runs through campus into Urbana, back through campus and ends on the 50-yard line of Memorial Stadium.

Jan Seeley, Illinois Marathon co-director, said there are no known threats in Champaign-Urbana, so there is no reason to cancel the marathon.

As of this morning, regis-tration for the marathon was just shy of 20,000 participants, according to Friedlein. About 440 participants registered on Monday, the final day of regis-tration and the same day as the

Boston Marathon explosions.Seely said there are about

500 more people registered this year than last year.

“It’s interesting, it actually seems to be bonding people to where we’ll see more (of a turn-out),” Friedlein said.

As of April 4, 400 volunteers were still needed to run a safe race. Mary Anderson, volunteer coordinator for the event, said 100 volunteers are still needed.

The Christie Clinic will host a fundraising event during the marathon, according to a press release. All profits raised will go to Boston relief efforts.

BY EILEEN SULLIVAN AND JAY LINDSAYTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON — The bombs that ripped through the Boston Mara-thon crowd appear to have been fashioned out of ordinary kitch-en pressure cookers, packed with nails and other fiendishly lethal shrapnel, and hidden in duffel bags left on the ground, investigators and others close to the case said Tuesday.

President Barack Obama branded the attack an act of ter-rorism, whether carried out by a solo bomber or group, and the FBI vowed to “go to the ends of the Earth” to find out who did it.

Scores of victims remained in Boston hospitals, many with grievous injuries, a day after the twin explosions near the mar-athon’s finish line killed three people, wounded more than 170 and reawakened fears of ter-rorism. A 9-year-old girl and 10-year-old boy were among 17 victims listed in critical condition.

Officials found that the bombs consisted of explosives put in common 1.6-gallon pressure cookers, one containing shards of metal and ball bearings, the other packed with nails, accord-ing to a person close to the inves-tigation who spoke on condi-tion of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing. Both bombs were stuffed into duffel bags, the person said.

At a news conference, FBI agent Richard DesLauriers, FBI agent in charge in Boston, confirmed that investigators had found pieces of black nylon from a bag or backpack and fragments of BBs and nails, possibly con-

tained in a pressure cooker. He said the items were sent to the FBI for analysis at Quantico, Va.

Pressure-cooker explosives have been used in international terrorism, and have been rec-ommended for lone-wolf oper-atives by al-Qaida’s branch in Yemen. But information on how to make the bombs is readily found online, and U.S. officials said Americans should not rush to judgment in linking the attack to overseas terrorists.

DesLauriers said that there had been no claim of responsi-bility for the attack and that the range of suspects and motives was “wide open.”

Throughout the day, he and other law enforcement authori-ties asked members of the public to come forward with any video or photos from the marathon or anything suspicious they might have witnessed, such as hearing someone express an interest in explosives or a desire to attack the marathon, or seeing some-one carrying a dark, heavy bag at the race.

“Someone knows who did this,” the FBI agent said.

The bombs exploded 10 or more seconds apart, tearing off victims’ limbs and spatter-ing streets with blood, instantly turning the festive race into a hellish scene of confusion, hor-ror and heroics.

The blasts killed 8-year-old Martin Richard of Boston, 29-year-old Krystle Campbell of Medford, Mass., and a third vic-tim, identified only as a gradu-ate student at Boston University.

Doctors who treated the wounded corroborated reports

that the bombs were packed with shrapnel intended to cause mayhem.

“We’ve removed BBs and we’ve removed nails from kids. One of the sickest things for me was just to see nails sticking out of a little girl’s body,” said Dr. David Mooney, director of the trauma center at Boston Chil-dren’s Hospital.

At Massachusetts General Hospital, all four amputations performed there were above the knee, with no hope of sav-ing more of the legs, said Dr. George Velmahos, chief of trau-ma surgery.

“It wasn’t a hard decision to make,” he said. “We just complet-ed the ugly job that the bomb did.”

Obama plans to visit Boston on Thursday to attend an inter-faith service in honor of the vic-tims. He has traveled four times to cities reeling from mass vio-lence, most recently in Decem-ber after the schoolhouse shoot-ing in Newtown, Conn.

In the wake of the attack, security was stepped up around the White House and across the country.

Police massed at federal buildings and transit centers in the nation’s capital, critical response teams deployed in New York City, and security officers with bomb-sniffing dogs spread through Chicago’s Union Station.

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano urged Ameri-

cans “to be vigilant and to listen to directions from state and local officials.” But she said there was no evidence the bombings were part of a wider plot.

Pressure-cooker explosives have been used in Afghani-stan, India, Nepal and Pakistan, according to a July 2010 intelli-gence report by the FBI and the Homeland Security Department. One of the three devices used in the May 2010 Times Square attempted bombing was a pres-sure cooker, the report said.

“Placed carefully, such devic-es provide little or no indication of an impending attack,” the report said.

Investigators said they have not yet determined what

was used to set off the Boston explosives.

“We will go to the ends of the Earth to identify the subject or subjects who are responsible for this despicable crime, and we will do everything we can to bring them to justice,” the FBI’s DesLauriers said.

The Pakistani Taliban, which claimed responsibility for the 2010 attempt in Times Square, has denied any part in the Bos-ton Marathon attack.

Al-Qaida’s branch in Yemen gave a detailed description of how to make a bomb using a pressure cooker in a 2010 issue of Inspire, its English-language online publication aimed at would-be terrorists acting alone.

CHICAGO — The distressing nonstop crying in babies with colic is often blamed on tummy trouble, but a new study says the problem could be linked with migraine headaches in at least some infants.

Children and teens treated for migraine headaches at three hos-pitals in Italy and France were much more likely than other kids to have had colic in infancy. The link has been suggested in other research, and if it can be proved, it could offer new hope for treat-ing colic, the researchers said.

“Infantile colic causes pain in babies and high levels of stress in parents. Preventive thera-pies for migraine could there-

fore be an option in the future,” said study co-author Dr. Luigi Titomanlio, chief of a pediatric migraine clinic at Robert Debre Hospital in Paris.

More research is needed to prove any link between colic and migraines, and Titomanlio said studies would need to be done before anyone would recommend using migraine treatments for babies’ colic.

The study appears in Wednes-day’s Journal of the American Medical Association.

Among about 200 children and teens who got emergency treat-ment for migraines in the study, 73 percent had colic as infants, versus 27 percent of children in a control group. That group — 471 kids — got emergency treatment

for minor trauma and had no his-tory of recurrent headaches.

An editorial in JAMA calls it important research and says that if colic really is an early form of migraines that might explain why digestive treatments typi-cally don’t help colic.

Definitive causes are uncer-tain for both colic and migraines.

Roughly 20 percent of U.S. infants have colic — intense crying spells lasting more than three hours a day, at least three days a week, for more than three weeks in an otherwise healthy baby. It usually starts a few weeks after birth. The symp-toms are sometimes blamed on digestive problems including gas but experts say the true cause is unknown.

Migraine headaches are rare in very young children but by middle-school and teen years as many as 10 percent or more experience them.

The throbbing headaches are thought to be inherited and may be caused by some sort of irri-tation in nerve cells in the brain interacting with brain blood vessels.

The researchers said it could be that colic is caused by simi-lar changes in nerves and blood vessels in the gut.

The study supports the idea that colic “may be an early life manifestation of migraine,” said Dr. Amy Gelfand, a neurologist at the University of Califor-nia, San Francisco’s Headache Center.

it be safer? Probably not, with all the skateboarders and bicycles and those walking around cam-pus, that would be a bad move.”

Before the June 10 deadline, if no concealed carry law is passed, every eligible citizen of Illinois can carry a firearm to any loca-tion, whether it is a rifle, pistol or other weapon.

Dayton said he thinks House Bill 1155’s lack of specifity needs to be changed. The bill could be rewritten in order to provide a framework that would allow cer-tain locations to determine wheth-er they would allow concealed carry, he said.

“What will best fit for down-state Illinois will not fit for Chicago. What best fits for the University of Illinois will not necessarily match up with what will be best for Western or Southern or any other colleges in this state,” he said. “We need to make sure that every single area can have their own gov-erning principle on (concealed carry).”

It is still unclear whether Illinois will ratify a legislation before June 10, but Quinn said new legislation is necessary.

“We’re tired of going to funer-als,” Quinn said. “We’re going to do something.”

Boston bombs homemade, act called terrorism

Task force aims to educate lawmakers on open access billBY MEGAN VASILIADISSTAFF WRITER

Illinois Sen. Daniel Biss introduced the Open Access to Research Articles bill in February to require all eight public institutions of higher education in Illinois to develop an open access policy allowing their research to be available to the public for free. Last Wednesday, to offer more legitimacy to the proposal, Biss filed Senate Amendment No. 2, which requires each of the eight universities to establish an Open Access to Research Task Force.

“Task forces are usually issued when lawmakers are not quite ready to vote on a new and unfamiliar topic,” Biss said in an email.

This task force will allow committees to familiarize lawmakers with the ideas and enable the University to come up with the best possible way to further the aim of open access.

Biss said there are many options to consider when discussing the bill.

“Illinois could adopt a statewide policy as in the introduced bill, something no other state has done yet, or each public university could adopt its own policy,” Biss said. “(I am) confident that if universities study the issue, they will come back to the Legislature with valuable evidence and ideas lawmakers can use to move toward the goal of open access.”

Sarah Shreeves, scholarly commons associate professor and library administrator, said she is an advocate for open research. But because of the way the bill is currently structured, she said she thinks there are more productive ways to achieve open access.

“I’m in favor of open access to research and finding a way to increase the ways that the general public can get access to research, as well as researchers

who are at institutions in regions or countries that have fewer resources to get access to the research that they need,” Shreeves said. “However, I actually think it will cause more challenges than perhaps solve the problems that Sen. Biss wants to solve.”

Susan Singleton, assistant vice president and executive director of the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois, said trying to asses the bill’s impact on the University or its libraries is premature because, if passed, the act will not go into effect until January 2015.

“Since the recommendations could and will differ for each university, so will the impact on the university libraries,” she said.

In addition to the possibility of the Open Access to Research Articles Act passing in Illinois, the United States Executive Office of the President enacted the Office of Science and Technology Policy in February. This policy requires each federal agency with over $100 million in annual conduct of research and development expenditures to develop a plan supporting increased public access to results of research funded by the federal government.

Shreeves said because most faculty members are not actively engaged in this area of open access, the potential double mandate of the policies might cause opposition.

“The fact that (the requirement) is coming from the federal government combined with the state makes it a complicated picture in terms of how the institution finds ways to support the activity that will have to take place,” Shreeves said.

StructurePore begins with a template of an electrode, com-posed of tiny glass or polymer spheres. Then, the template is filled with metals that surround the spheres, creating a three-dimensional structure. After the template of spheres is removed, the three-dimensional porous structure is filled with conduc-tive metals.

With batteries currently on the market, metals grow as a two-dimensional film on a sur-face, Braun said.

Because of the porous quality of the new electrode structure developed by Braun’s research

team, lithium ions necessary to charge a battery can move more quickly through the bat-tery, charging it much faster than the current battery struc-ture on the market. Although the new technology can charge a bat-tery faster, it will not impede the function of batteries in products as they function now.

Braun and his team knew from previous research that the new battery technology might be possible.

Dr. Huigang Zhang, a senior scientist with Braun’s group, said he and Braun initially tried to apply the 3-D electrode struc-ture for a different project but soon found that it had other potential.

“The battery using the unique

structure was a byproduct of my research in photonic crystal for thermal emission,” Zhang said. “Since we found that the battery with the structured electrode showed super high discharge rate, we all agreed that there is a great opportunity for pushing forward the battery technology to a higher limit.”

If the higher limit of the bat-tery is successful in commer-cialization, the University will receive royalties to cover the costs of patenting the discov-eries. After paying the patent costs, the profits will then be divided between members of the Braun Research Group.

CHRIS KNIGHT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Janelle Valore holds her daughter Alena Valore, 5 months, who has colic, at their home in Mt. Joy, Pa., on Monday. The nonstop crying of colic in babies is often blamed on tummy trouble. But now a study released Tuesday says the problem could be linked with migraine headaches in at least some infants.

Colic may be linked to childhood migraines

Illinois,” Dozier said. “The class should have nothing to do with the Chief, just students becoming edu-cated about those that came before us and the University’s history.”

Tayana said the forum was nec-essary because discussion had previously only taken place over social media.

“We’re all passionate about this issue so we needed to come togeth-er and share our emotions,” Pano-va said. “We needed to come to an understanding of what the other side is thinking.”

Opinions4A

The University of Illinois at Urbana-

Champaign is the No. 24 university in the world,

according to Times Higher Education’s world reputation

rankings. Harvard takes the No. 1 spot and Kyoto University in Japan precedes the University at No. 23.

The University of Michigan, ranked No. 12, is the only Big Ten school which

precedes Illinois.

The rankings were determined by a survey taken by over 16,000 published scholars from 144 different countries.

Each scholar named up to 15 universities that they thought were the best in the

world, based on excellence in research and teaching within their own discipline.

In honor of our No. 24 spot, I have named the top 24 things about the

University. Do you agree?

#24 Squirrels

No place has friendlier squirrels. Cute and fluffy, what’s not to love? Just keep an eye on

your food!

#2 School spirit

I-L-L! I-N-I! Though we

may have some trouble winning football games, we all still bleed orange and blue.

#23 The Daily Illini The Daily Illini is the independent daily student newspaper of the University. Not too

many college newspapers can boast that. Not to mention, in 2012 The Daily Illini won first in general excellence by the Illinois College Press Association.

#22 Bus system The Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District offers a great bus system that takes us

all-over campus and to surrounding towns. It also gives us SafeRides, which comes in handy late on a Saturday night.

#21 Registered Student Organizations Illinois has over 1,000 RSOs ranging from

Nuts for Nutella to the Ballroom Dance Club.

#20 Research The Research Park offers valuable research internships for

students where established companies work with faculty and students to develop new technologies.

#19 Best band in the land Illinois Bands is a program of firsts, most notably the first college

band program in the world. Philip Sousa himself called it the “world’s greatest college band.” The Marching Illini, one branch

of the band program, also keeps the football games interesting.

#18 Krannert Center for the Performing Arts Krannert offers a beautiful concert venue for

performances ranging from campus instrumental groups to Circus Oz from Australia. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra sometimes uses Foellinger

Great Hall, the main performance hall in Krannert, to record.

#1 Feels like home Coming to Illinois feels like coming home. You build an entire life here

and can come back at any time without feeling like an outsider.

While the campus landscape may continually change,

the core of Illinois stays the same.

Once an Illini, forever an Illini;

you belong here.

#14 Diversity Illinois is an ethnically-diverse university, bringing students from all 50 states plus 118 countries, with 20 percent coming from outside the country.

#4 Top programs The University boasts the No. 1 spot in the nation for its

Graduate School of Library and Information Science.

Engineering holds the No. 5 spot.

#10 Professional selationships

The student-faculty ratio is 17:1. This allows students to get to know

their professors and form connections.

#9 Retention After their

freshman year, 92.7 percent of

freshmen return. That’s a high

retention rate. Students want to be here.

#6 Future Illinois is a great university

to attend if you don’t really know what you want to do with your life. With more than 150 undergraduate programs and more

than 100 graduate programs, you can

basically study anything you like.

#3 Aesthetics A large part of

a university’s appeal is its

aesthetics, and Illinois has it. Three grassy quads, century-old beautiful buildings and large leafy trees create the perfect

collegiate atmosphere.

#8 Jobs According to the University,

73 percent of job-seeking seniors find work within six months of graduation. The

odds are in your favor.

#12 Micro-urban community

Though it is 140 miles south of Chicago, the

University doesn’t feel like it is in the middle

of cornfields. Campus, as well as the cities of Champaign and

Urbana, offer numerous

things to do.

#11 The bar scene You can get into most bars on campus at 19. Need I say more?

#13 Weekends There are so many things to do

on campus all the time. From sporting events to Illini Union

Board activities to club meetings to parties, you’re missing out if you

go home for a weekend.

#16 Tradition Even though Chief Illiniwek is no longer the mascot, he still maintains a presence for many students. How long this tradition continues is up to fans at football and basketball games who yell

“Chiefff” during the Three-In-One.

#15 The Quad The Quad is the central gathering

place on campus. This year, it held the

Harlem Shake dance, the mass snowball fight on the snow day and sunbathing students on the few and far between warm spring days.

#5 Sports Illinois is a Division I, Big Ten school. No

matter how our teams do, it’s pretty cool to be a part of that atmosphere.

#17 History Illinois has

a long and interesting history. It started when

Abraham Lincoln signed the Morrill Act in 1862,

which granted public land in each state

for the creation of universities.

#7 Green Street Green Street makes

for the perfect heart of campustown. A

variety of restaurants, bars, a Starbucks,

apartments, bookstores and

so much more.

Whenever I get a chance to go to the ARC, I always end up doing

a similar exercise routine. After running on the tread-mill for about 45 minutes, I stretch and do some abs — as you can see, this isn’t the most exciting workout. How-ever, while on the treadmill, I always have my eye on the rock-climbing wall. I always steered clear. Unfortunately, the first time I tried the ARC’s wall, it wasn’t the most suc-cessful experience.

It was on a random fall day this past semester. My friends and I needed something new to do, and until someone sug-gested we try rock climbing, we all thought it was going to be another lazy afternoon of watching “Modern Family” reruns. As we made the walk over to the ARC, I was actu-ally kind of excited to try rock climbing as a form of exer-cise. Plus, I hadn’t been rock climbing since I was probably 10 years old, so I thought it couldn’t be too difficult, right?

Well, I was definitely wrong. After getting all set up in my harness, I ended up totally embarrassed. I’m pretty sure I was able to get just 10 feet off the ground before terror paralyzed me. I couldn’t move any higher. Apparently, I had forgotten about my “slight” fear of heights before making the trek to the ARC with my friends. I was always the kid who had hesitated when trying to jump off the jungle gym in elementary school, and I still hate going all the way up to the eighth floor of my apart-ment building. Why did I think climbing up a rock wall would be any different?

Well, despite my previ-ous bad experience with rock

climbing a few months ago, I decided to give it another go this week. I challenged myself to try the rock wall at least three times during the week, inspired by recently seeing a little boy who had climbed all the way to the top of the wall. If a boy who was no older than 6 could climb to the top of the rock wall, I knew I could, too.

Even though I couldn’t climb all the way to the top, working on my rock-climbing skills led to major improve-ment. Each day, I told myself that I needed to go a few feet higher than the previous. It was a bit scary at times, but I’m glad I overcame my fear ... at least a little bit.

I’m even happier about learning of the benefits of rock climbing.

According to HealthGuid-ance.org, physical benefits of rock climbing include muscle toning, increased metabolism and burning calories, which leads to increased stami-na and energy. “Rock climb-ing not only builds up your strength and endurance, but it also helps you increase your balance and determination,” the website says.

I’m glad to hear that rock climbing improves one’s strength.

Personally, I’ve always had a hard time with weight lift-ing. I’m an extremely weak

person, and even though I know that weight lifting is a great way to improve over-all health, I’m just awful at it. Instead, I always end up doing way too much cardio and tir-ing myself out.

However, I know now that rock climbing can be a great alternative to weight lift-ing. After my first time rock climbing this week, some of my muscles, which had never been sore before, were aching. By the end of the week, I could tell that my arms had become stronger, and despite the pain, I knew it was worth it.

According to Selina Kemp-ton, Campus Recreation employee who works the ARC’s rock-climbing wall and senior in LAS, rock climbing can be used for a few different types of exercise.

“Depending on how you do it, you can make it into cardio or you can do strength build-ing,” Kempton said. “It’s just really fun to be fit and active.”

When it comes to using rock climbing for cardiovascu-lar exercise, it’s important to start small and work your way up. According to fitday.com, the American Medical Asso-ciation recommends climbing for 30 minutes in order to gain health benefits. In addition, fitday.com also explained that rock climbing at a moderate intensity for an hour will burn approximately 400 calories.

I definitely hope to incor-porate rock climbing into my regular workout routine — it’s perfect for those days when running on a treadmill seems too boring, or for whenever you need something fun to do to pass the time.

T U N E I NEVERYDAY

BY JED LACYSTAFF WRITER

Between schoolwork and extracurriculars, students may struggle finding time to focus on their health and may be unaware of the community services geared toward improv-ing physical well-being. How-ever, students and community members have the opportu-nity to interactively educate themselves about their health Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the “20th Annual Health Fair: Go for the Gold with Good Health.” The fair will be held in the Illini Union in rooms A, B and C, hosted by the regis-tered student organization Spe-cial Populations and sponsored by the Student Affairs Pro-gram Coordinating Council and McKinley Health Center.

“Our goal is to promote bal-anced, healthy lifestyles among the diverse UIUC community and provide health and well-ness information for typically underserved populations,” said Maura Steinke, graduate hourly at McKinley Health Center and graduate student in Social Work.

Steinke said the mission to

provide the Champaign-Urba-na community with better health education is the hallmark of Spe-cial Populations and is reflected in the annual health fair.

Although Special Populations has hosted the health fair for 20 years, its members have seen it grow in recent years, said Pajion Montgomery, committee chairman of the Special Popula-tions and senior in LAS.

“It started with a group of students who came up with the idea to have a health fair, but at first it wasn’t nearly as big as it is today,” she said. “Over the years, though, it grew and expanded into what it is today.”

This year, the fair will host more than 80 venders, including chiropractors, physical thera-pists and dentists. An acupunc-ture practitioner will also treat students for free at the fair. Oth-er services include free massag-es, blood pressure and choles-terol screenings and manicures from Concept College of Cosme-tology in Urbana.

While the fair aims to be edu-cational, it’s also meant to be entertaining, said Maritza Rodri-guez, student worker for Special Populations and junior in LAS.

“I think (the fair) is informa-tional but also fun,” Rodriguez said. “We make it a priority to get entertainers that represent different populations of people.”

The fair will also feature a live DJ and a myriad of per-formers, such as Central Illi-nois Irish Dance and the “Gah Rahk Mah Dahng” Korean per-cussion group.

At the end of the fair, students may enter a raffle to win gift cards from various local busi-nesses and restaurants.

B eri, which will not be open much longer due to apartment building construction in that space, is anoth-

er frozen-yogurt shop on campus that provides four simple yogurt flavors and a multitude of fruit and dry toppings.

Customers can complete their choice of plain, mango, green tea or strawber-ry-flavored yogurt with unique toppings such as Fruity Pebbles and Twix choco-late pieces that blend well with the clas-sic flavors.

Beri’s frozen yogurt also has its health benefits. It is made of Dannon Activia yogurt, which consists of probiotic cul-ture that helps regulate the digestive system.

The pricing system also works to the advantage of those who are watching what they eat. Prices are based upon predetermined quantities (small, medi-um and large), eliminating the tempta-tion to overindulge.

“Summer is a time when people want to lose weight or watch their weight, and since their dessert is light and a yogurt, it’s the perfect dessert for summer,” said Joyce Song, sophomore in ACES.

W ith 16 different flavors of frozen yogurt (many low-fat) and over 30 dry and fruit toppings, custom-

ers are welcome to create their own des-serts with Cocomero’s self-serve, pay-by-weight system.

According to Chris Kim, Cocomero shift manager and senior in ACES, the most popular menu items on a hot summer day include milk tea, strawberry banana bubble tea and any of the frozen yogurt flavors available.

The store will be featuring its newest flavors this summer, which are pistachio, mango, blueberry and peach.

“A lot of people don’t taste Taro, but it’s what I would choose from the yogurt fla-vors,” Kim added as inside advice.

Cocomero provides not just tasty treats, but also a friendly environment.

“Cocomero sells quality products, and the environment that this building struc-ture provides is just a great one to relax and talk with friends,” said Emily Lee, junior in social work. “I think it’s one of the only places on campus that has a big enough facility to allow a group of people to relax and eat dessert.”

C old Stone is a well-known ice cream chain that provides custom-made ice cream and an abundance of dessert

options, including ice cream cakes, funnel cakes, brownies and cookie sandwiches. Cold Stone’s primary attraction is its variety of ice cream, featuring 20 different flavors and numerous mix-in ingredients.

“The ice cream there is the best on cam-pus,” said Jon George, graduate student in Engineering. “It’s rich and thick but still creamy.”

Its newest flavor is Red Velvet Cake, made with real red velvet cake. Cold Stone also recently introduced new sorbet flavors that taste of real fruit, giving tart and fruit lov-ers a reason to celebrate.

Additionally, Taylor Lester, Cold Stone employee and sophomore in LAS, said that students and community members frequent the ice cream store because of its welcom-ing atmosphere.

“We greet everyone who comes into the door, and we’re always very happy to have customers,” Lester said.

Quad Cones offers an assortment of classic ice cream flavors at a con-venient location for those travel-

ling to and from classes.Options include chocolate chip, choc-

olate chip cookie dough and cookies ‘n creme. Birthday cake is arguably a stand-out flavor. With the colors of the rainbow, this flavor resembles the taste of sweet frosting and cake batter.

Besides ice cream, Quad Cones also sells a tasty treat that can be overlooked by customers. Alligator Ice, a fruity slushie that comes in two different fla-vors, can also satisfy cravings for a fro-zen, sweet treat.

“I would definitely buy this in the summer because it is refreshing,” said Albert Chang, freshman in Engineering.

By July 1, Quad Cones will be switch-ing from Blue Bunny ice cream to a new distributor that will provide cheap-er costs and a greater variety for its customers.

Almost nothing is more refreshing than the cold, sweet taste of summer frozen treats. Fortunately for students and community members alike, the University campus offers a variety of summer indulgences that can satisfy most customers’ sweet tooth. The following list includes dessert shops that are less than a five-minute walk away from Green Street.

It can be difficult for teams to get ready for this kind of game, when it rains all day and the players aren’t sure if there’s even going to be a game.

Especially for the Illinois baseball team, so focused on its conference schedule that it would be easy to look ahead to this weekend’s road series against Ohio State, who is fifth in the Big Ten at 7-5. Both teams are now in striking distance after Indiana was swept this past weekend.

“You got to knock it into your head that you’re playing Illinois State today, not Ohio State on Friday,” third baseman Brandon Hohl said.

Hohl added Illinois didn’t know whether the team would even be playing until about 2:30 p.m.

Starting pitcher Kevin Duchene was just trying to get his mind off baseball entirely during the bus ride to Bloomington. He put in his headphones and listened to Eminem’s “The Real Slim Shady” Pandora station.

“Just trying to get into the zone,” Duchene said.

It worked for Duchene, who struck out seven of the 11 batters he retired while collecting his team-high sixth victory of the season as Illinois (23-10, 5-4 Big Ten) pounded Illinois State (19-16, 3-3 Ohio Valley) 12-1 on Tuesday in a

game that ended in the eighth inning due to college baseball’s 10-run rule. The Illini have struggled in midweek games in recent years, and this win improves their midweek record to 2-1. The Ilini are now on a four-game winning streak headed into the weekend.

Duchene lasted only 3 2/3 innings Tuesday but improved to 6-1 on the year and is now closing in on the school record of wins by a freshman, which was set last season by John Kravetz at eight. Duchene is also getting the most run support of any Illini pitcher.

Illinois dominated the Redbirds the entire game, and its pitching staff of Duchene, Drasen Johnson, J.D. Nielsen

and Tyler Jay combined for a season-high 14 strikeouts and allowed a season-low three hits.

Illinois got off to a slow start in the first three innings after scoring 40 runs during the weekend.In the fourth, the Illini took advantage and forced some Illinois State mistakes in a five-run inning. Illinois stole bases and the Redbirds threw the ball into center field. Illinois State finished the game with five errors.

“It was situations where we were putting pressure on them offensively to force those errors,” head coach Dan Hartleb said.

Center fielder Justin Parr

Sports1BWednesdayApril 17, 2013The Daily Illiniwww.DailyIllini.com

BY JAMAL COLLIERSTAFF WRITER

Editor’s note: The Daily Illini sports desk sits down Sunday nights and decides which Illinois athlete or coach is our Illini of the Week. Stu-dent-athletes and coaches are eval-uated by individual performance and contribution to team success.

Reid Roper could barely hold back a smile when he took off his hel-met and touched home plate. He touched hel-

mets with his teammates as they offered him congratula-tions before he put his head down and jogged back toward the Illini dugout.

He’d been waiting for this for more than a year.

“This may be it,” said Roper, still beaming after Saturday’s 6-4 victory over Purdue. “This may be one of my biggest hits as an Illini.”

Roper’s two-run home run in the eighth inning would even-tually be the game winner for Illinois. It was Roper’s second home run in as many days, but before then, he hadn’t hit one since last season in his first career game.

Assistant coach Eric Snid-er described the Illini second

baseman as quiet and reserved, yet as intense and competitive as anyone else on the field. After Roper steps out of his black car with a license plate “ROPE 92” and steps onto the field, he rarely shows any emotion. When Roper hadn’t been smil-ing recently, Snider and head coach Dan Hartleb noticed it, because Roper’s performance at the plate during the year hadn’t given him reason to be happy.

He came into this past week-end’s three-game series with Purdue scuffling with a .231 bat-ting average and .302 on-base percentage, and it had been 10 days since his last hit. Roper can recall instances last sea-son when he would struggle for three games at the most, but this was easily the worst stretch of his career — he had gone 3-for-37 since March 16.

Roper couldn’t explain why. He hits near the bottom of the order, so he received plenty of fastballs and strikes to hit.

He was named a Louisville Slugger Freshman All-Ameri-can by Collegiate Baseball last season after hitting .293 with a .396 on-base percentage. His father is a high school base-ball coach, so he is used to con-stant instruction and is usually

able to get out of slumps rather quickly. Roper has a high aware-ness of what he’s doing in the batter’s box and makes adjust-ments all the time, so this was frustrating for him to not be able to correct it.

“Sometimes guys internal-ize so much, and it eats them up because they want to do so well,” Hartleb said. “Yet their hard work doesn’t show in a game situation.”

When Roper struggles, he starts messing with his hands.

Sometimes, he will move them up and hold the bat high. If that doesn’t work, it’s time to move them down a bit.

At the beginning of the sea-son, he said he thought his hands were a little high, and he got caught out on his front foot, which resulted in too many lazy ground balls to second base.

Roper is also the Illini clos-er, and never let his struggles at the plate carry over to the mound. He has a 2.79 ERA in 9 and 2/3 innings.

“He’s not a person that gets flustered a lot,” Hartleb said.

Roper busted out of his slump in an emphatic way against Pur-due. He went 7-for-14 with three home runs, five runs and eight RBIs. It bumped his average up

40 points to .271. The rest of the Illini have

seen it before in batting prac-tice, the way Roper crushes the ball and makes everyone turn their heads. Left fielder Jordan Parr even suggested that Roper may have the most natural pow-er on the team.

Boston bombings steal city’s day of celebration, sport

What else is there to say about the bombings at Monday’s Boston

Marathon?The journalists from their

respective newspapers have already reported on the situa-tion to the best of their ability. The columnists crafted piec-es that resonated with read-ers, hoping to make sense of a senseless act. The news cover-age turned questions of “what” into questions of “why” as con-fusion slowly boiled into anger. The tweeters tweeted. The blog-gers blogged. Everything pos-sible to say has been said.

But then again, what other sports topic is worthy of dis-cussion following an event like that?

There’s nothing left for me to say other than that Monday’s Boston Marathon had no win-ners. Some idiot somewhere made sure everyone lost that day, and that’s just horrible, horrible, horrible.

I tried to embrace what happened in Boston on a per-sonal level, but it’s difficult to relate to the unimaginable. I can’t imagine what it’s like to have your city punched in the mouth on its biggest day. I can’t imagine what it’s like to have an afternoon spent among a large crowd quickly turn from wonderful to trau-matic. I can’t imagine what it’s like to work, train and suf-fer in order to achieve the incredible feat of finishing a marathon, only to have that moment of supreme pride — a moment you deserved — stolen and replaced with a moment of panic and terror, a moment no one deserves.

I’ve never experienced it, but according to every report and testimony, Patriots’ Day in Boston represents every-thing good in life. The people

of the city spend the day out-side with their friends and family, grilling and enjoying a beverage or two. No adult toils away at work and no stu-dent toils away at school. Fen-way Park celebrates another season. Thousands and thou-sands of runners and their families celebrate months of hard work with proud hugs and high-fives. Everyone is friends, everyone is happy, and everything is good.

The traditional Patriots’ Day celebrations somewhat represent sports as a whole. Just like a day at the ballpark, it’s an escape from the mun-dane daily pattern. Just like an evening on the couch in front of your favorite team, it’s an escape from work and finances and problems. It doesn’t last forever — noth-ing in sports does — but even the smallest vacation is bet-ter than no vacation at all. A problem in sports is less sig-nificant than a problem almost anywhere else, and that’s exactly the way it should be.

And that’s exactly the way it was not on Monday. It was not an escape. It was not insignificant. It was very real. Instead of the terms “heroes” and “warriors” being used in terms of clutch, ninth-inning players, they were used in terms of actual doctors, Good Samaritans and police offi-cers — people saving lives. Instead of ESPN standing as the refuge from the tradition-al, depressing news, it became a top news source on unthink-able carnage. Instead of tears of joy, there were tears of fear. Instead of a great day, Monday was a horrible day.

And I don’t know what to say about it. Other than, “Stay strong, Boston,” there really isn’t much to say. I only hope that someday soon, Patri-ots’ Day will again symbolize everything that is good.

Illini baseball pound Redbirds, 12-1Duchene leads Illinois to improve mid-week record, despite rain

Reid RoperAfter season-long struggles at the plate, Illini baseball’s surging second baseman leads a weekend-long slugfest against Purdue with three home runs and eight runners batted in.

Ahlivia and Ashley Spencer have always been teammates. They may not have competed for the same schools, with Ahlivia being a year older than Ashley, but growing up as star athletes, beating the boys in their classes in races, and even dealing with injuries, they’ve always had each other’s back, the way inseparable teammates do.

The two Illinois track stars have helped take the women’s track program to another level, with Ahlivia specializing in the 800 meters and Ashley in the 400 meters. Ashley was stellar in her freshman season for the Illini last year, but Ahlivia spent last sea-son toiling away in a program that couldn’t accommodate her chang-ing desires. When Ahlivia needed a new place to continue her devel-

opment as an athlete, she decid-ed to get the team back together.

Middle-distance runner Ahliv-ia is in her junior year, her first for the Illini after two years with the University of Louisville. She was a three-time Big East cham-pion with the Cardinals and holds several school records. Ashley, the sophomore sprinter, is a nine-time Big Ten champion, a two-time IAAF World Junior champi-on, Big Ten Freshman and Athlete of the Year.

The two look to play as big a part in Illinois’ future as they did in each other’s past.

Ahlivia and Ashley grew up in Indianapolis with both of their parents and a brother four years older than Ahlivia.

Born into an athletic family, with a father who played foot-ball and a mother who ran track, the Spencers always seemed des-

tined to be athletes, but they felt no pressure from their parents.

“My parents were a big influ-ence as far as athletics,” Ahlivia said. “They’ve always wanted us to be active in something, whether it be dancing, basketball or soc-cer. They never wanted it to be strictly athletics; they just kept us active and wanted us to do some-thing we were good at.”

The Spencer sisters started their athletic careers in elementa-ry school. They joined the basket-ball team at Craig Middle School in Indianapolis. Ashley noticed her own potential pretty early, and she acted on it.

“At a very young age, I found out I was faster than most guys in my classroom,” Ashley said. “I think that’s what got me started. I joined the track team in high school, and I encouraged (Ahliv-ia) to come out (for the team).”

Ahlivia said she owes joining track to her younger sister, who convinced her to join Lawrence North High School’s track and field team on a bet.

“She actually bet me on the team,” Ahlivia said. “I was return-ing from surgery and (my high school basketball team) had a game. I was trying to get back to fitness and Ashley said, ‘If you lose this game, you just have to run a year and try out track.’ We lost, so I ended up having to join.”

Ahlivia agreed to join the team, but it wasn’t all smooth sailing from that point.

“The first day I wanted to quit,” Ahlivia said. “It was way too much running, especially coming off of basketball. My mother made me finish out the year, but Ash-ley encouraged me the whole way through. I finished, and I actually loved it by the end of the year.”

By the end of Ashley’s soph-omore year in high school, she noticed her sister had begun to garner interest from some Divi-sion I basketball programs.

Ashley, on the other hand, played basketball for fun. She saw her sister accumulating let-ters of interest for basketball, and told herself that if she didn’t have letters of interest by then, she would drop the sport.

The letters didn’t come, so Ashley stopped playing basket-ball after her sophomore year of high school. Ahlivia, on the other hand, received a number of inquiries from colleges and decided to continue until she had no options. She tore her ACL her junior year, however, and her prospects changed.

“At that point, I felt like track could take me a lot further than basketball,” Ahlivia said.

This period marked the end of the Spencer sisters as a bas-ketball tandem. The next step in their journey would be college, and each had different criteria for picking schools. Ahlivia, by her own admission, was rela-tively oblivious to the collegiate track and field circuit. Her choic-es, which didn’t include Illinois at the time, came down to comfort. Ahlivia chose Louisville because she liked the coach, she said.

“We really clicked because his coaching style is very similar to my high school coach, and I real-ly enjoyed it,” Ahlivia said. “His plan for me, as far as track, was dead-on for what I was interested in at the time, which was the 400.”

Ashley’s recruitment to Illinois came with help from an insider. Head coach Tonja Buford-Bailey

PORTRAIT BY BRENTON TSE THE DAILY ILLINI

As an avid college basketball fan, I find it somewhat insulting that this is even a debate. Yes, I understand that football is America’s sport. And as a former

high school basketball player, I’m probably biased toward bas-

ketball. But it’s not even about that.

I’m anticipating that my counterpart

will argue that the NCAA champion-ship game and the BCS champi-onship game are the same thing — a one-game,

winner-take-all event. He will

say the BCS is better because it (supposedly) pits

the nation’s two best teams on the same field. He will take the stance that this debate isn’t about the lead-up to the respec-tive title games, but about the final games themselves.

That is where he is wrong.

You can’t have this argument without

discusing how the last two

teams standing made it to the pinncle of their sport. March Madness is about so much more than the title game. In all honesty, I have no idea what the BCS is about.

I was lucky enough to be in the building for the 2010 National Championship game between Duke and Butler. I’ve attended some memorable sporting events (Steve Bart-man’s blunder in 2003 and Illinois’ comeback against Arizona in 2005, to name a couple),

but nothing compares to the Duke-Butler title bout.

Without the NCAA tournament, Butler does not play in that game. Neither does Duke. Sherron Collins and Kansas would have played John Wall and Kentucky, and it would not have been nearly as special.

March Madness gives us Butler in 2010 (and 2011); it gives us Villanova in 1985 and it gives us NC State in 1983. It gives us count-less other Cinderellas that couldn’t quite make it to the title game. What does the annu-al SEC coronation — uh, I mean BCS Cham-pionship — give us? A 28-point drubbing of Notre Dame at the hands of Alabama. Back-to-back thrashings of Ohio State in 2007 and 2008.

How many undefeated teams never had the chance to win the BCS National Champion-ship? Too many (six to be exact, plus count-less in the pre-BCS era). How many unde-feated college basketball teams never played for a title? Not since the Alcorn State Braves finished 27-0 in 1979 and were not invited to the NCAA Tournament because of academic reasons.

Let’s look at it from a fan’s perspective. What do we as fans want? Well, we want to be entertained. So in the years since the BCS was implemented (1998-present), how many memorable championship games have there been? I’m not talking close games, I mean memorable. I mean games that make you say, “I want to watch that again.”

By my count, there have been two: Ohio State vs. Miami in 2003 and Texas vs. USC in 2006. How many memorable NCAA Champi-onship Games have there been in that span? Duke vs. UConn in 1999, Kansas vs. Syra-cuse in 2003, Kansas vs. Memphis in 2008, the aforementioned Duke vs. Butler game in 2010, and Louisville vs. Michigan last Monday night. That’s five. Does that make it a better way to decide a champion? No, of course not.

But there’s a reason President Barack Obama enthusiastically fills out his bracket every March. And there’s also a reason why three years ago he asked for Congress’s help in attacking the legality of the BCS.

The Illinois softball team will face a familiar foe in DePaul for its midweek game at home on Wednesday.

The Illini (11-25, 1-11 Big Ten)will face the Blue Devils (23-14, 10-1 Big East), a team they play yearly and have already beaten this year.

“They’re def-initely a really good team,” junior catcher Jenna Mychko said. “They have a really good record right now, and they’re always tough.”

The Illini beat the Blue Devils 4-1 in mid-February at the Hilton Houston Plaza Invite and since then the two teams have gone in different directions. Illinois has lost its last nine and DePaul has won seven of its last eight, moving into a tie for sec-ond place in the Big East.

Freshman infielder Katie Repole said the Illini expect DePaul to be at its best because it’s an in-state rivalry game.

“Everyone wants to win the state, so everyone comes out with a lot of ener-gy, a lot of passion and it’s a lot of fun,” she said.

To bounce back from being swept by Minnesota last weekend, the Illini have been working on a multitude of things in practice.

“We’re working on playing together as a team, talking, being together as a team and just having fun,” Mychko said.

Mychko added that on offense, the

team has to stay aggressive and be ready to attack the first-pitch strike when it is thrown.

Although it was a loss, Sunday’s offen-sive performance has given Illinois con-fidence moving forward.

“On Sunday we played well even though the score didn’t show it,” Mych-ko said. “Our bats came alive, we got

three runs, which has made us feel really ready to go for Wednesday and this weekend.”

Repole added that their simu-lated-game prac-tice has also add-ed to the Illini’s confidence.

“In this game, confidence is e v e r y t h i n g , ” Repole said. “I think that coach

Sullivan and the rest of the coach-ing staff has done a really good job of keeping everyone’s confidence up even if we’re struggling. Today we scrim-maged just to get some cuts in and get some balls hit at you, which helps with confidence.”

The Illini will add to their confidence even more Wednesday if they come away with a win, something that Repole said will come if the team plays its best.

“We have to have a good pitching per-formance and score some runs for our pitchers,” she said. “We need to click on all cylinders and put everything together.”

The Illinois men’s tennis team lost to Southern California in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament last year, capping its fifth Sweet 16 appearance since Brad Dancer took over as head coach in 2005. Under Dancer the pro-gram has advanced to the second round of the tournament every year, mak-ing its furthest run during the 2006-07 season, when it lost to Georgia in the championship.

After the graduation of Roy Kalma-novich and Dennis Nevolo, the current roster is trying to fill the holes they left to continue the program’s NCAA performances.

This year’s team is composed of nine players — four freshmen, three soph-omores and two seniors — making it just one of three Big Ten teams to have seven or more underclassmen and the only team without a junior.

It’s hard to deny Illinois’ underclass-men success, with Jared Hiltzik ranked

No. 31 in singles and sophomores Ross Guignon and Tim Kopinski leading the Big Ten at the No. 11 spot. Just four of its nine members have experience in NCAA tournaments, and two of them having only last year’s experience under their belts.

Dancer said he recognizes his young team’s energy and fight in matches, but that doesn’t change some of the technical faults. For the past three weeks, each player has been correct-ing his own individual problems. These problems showed in previous match-es against Minnesota, Michigan and Michigan State, which Dancer called “disappointing.”

Kalmanovich and Nevolo led a then-No. 16 Illinois team into NCAA tour-nament last year, each individually ranked in singles at No. 7 and No. 31, respectively, and as a No. 21 tandem. But this year, seniors Bruno Abdel-nour and Stephen Hoh aren’t quite fill-ing their shoes. Hoh has handled the singles department with eight wins in

his last 10 matches, but none were over significant opponents. Hon’s only two losses came against nationally ranked opponents.

Meanwhile, Abdelnour has been inconsistently on the lineup because of a groin injury he received in the Feb. 1 match against Duke.

Abdelnour also obtained a contu-sion to his right quad in practice last week that kept him out last weekend against Ohio State and Penn State. While he expects to play in Friday’s match against Indiana, Abdelnour’s recovery is shown by his 4-5 record since the Duke meet.

With neither senior has been domi-nant, pressure has been piled on under-classmen to deliver in tough matches.

Wins over Indiana and Purdue would tie last year’s 8-3 Big Ten record. Win-ning this weekend would also bring the Illini to 15-9, only a single match worse than last year’s 19-8 record. The task of living up to last year’s Sweet 16 appearance — of continuing Dancer’s streak of reaching the sec-ond round — will fall largely on the shoulders of the team’s least experi-enced players.

POINT-COUNTERPOINTLet the Goliaths earn the right to

duke it out, not the Davids March Madness remains a narrative; the BCS is just a footnote to a season

NCAA success will depend on underclassmen’s performance

L et’s start by recognizing that this isn’t an argument about fairness.

No one is claiming the BCS is more virtuous or unbiased than the NCAA tour-nament when deciding a national champion. Giving 68 teams an equal(ish) chance at play-ing in a title game is obviously a more judi-cious solution compared to a selection com-mittee known for its subjectivity, corruption and priorities placed on nonfootball criteria.

Yet while the principles of the BCS are undoubtedly flawed, the end result is repeat-edly the right one. The most compelling games are the ones in which the end result is truly up in the air, when a competition is all but guaranteed to come down to its final sec-onds. I want to watch a game truly not know-ing who is going to win, and that happens with much greater regularity via the BCS than the NCAA tournament.

Oftentimes in the NCAA tournament, such as this year’s Wichita State-Louisville Final Four matchup and even Michigan-Louisville in the title game, the underdog — Louisville’s opponent on both accounts — had an uphill battle. It was an accomplishment for the teams to just make the games interesting and avoid blowouts. And then they pointed their focus on actually trying to win the game.

I want the clock to strike midnight on the Cinderellas by the time the Elite Eight is decided. By then, the charm of the underdogs has been lost and it’s time to see the Goliaths battle it out — especially with the watered-down version of college basketball in its cur-rent form.

Yes, the NCAA tournament’s entertain-ment value as a whole is superior to that of the BCS. I am little concerned with whether Florida State or Northern Illinois will win the Orange Bowl. But deciding matchups for supplemental bowl games isn’t the BCS’ main priority. It’s to decide which two teams are most deserving to play for a national championship, and that is continuously done successfully.

The same cannot be said of the NCAA tournament.

Those who cite 2010’s Butler-Duke admit-tedly phenomenal title game must also con-cede that Butler versus Connecticut the fol-lowing year was equally putrid.

And sure, Alabama rocked Notre Dame in this year’s BCS National Championship, but that was because the Crimson Tide held a substantial advantage over every other team.

Yes, Michigan against Louisville resulted in an entertaining NCAA tournament finale. But all No. 1 seeds in the Final Four and Indiana versus Lou-isville would have forced me to gravi-tate toward my TV with a much stronger pull.

Texas’ win over USC in the 2006 Rose Bowl did that for me. The outcome was unknown, and the game was one of the greatest sport-ing events in recent memo-ry. It was played because the two teams earned the right to play each other after a grueling regular season.

The importance placed on college football’s regular sea-son serves as its own playoff. How often are the two best teams actually in question following the completion of college football’s regular season?

Perhaps a vote for the BCS is a vote against the idea of sports in general. Why even both-er playing the games if you’re just going to let computers and committees decide?

But once again, it’s not about fairness.

Cubs’ 4-8 record signals changes needed in lineupTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO — The Chicago Cubs acti-vated second baseman Darwin Barney from the 15-day disabled list before the team opened a three-game series against the Texas Rangers.

The Cubs also claimed infielder Cody Ransom off waivers from the San Diego Padres and added relievers Kevin Gregg and Kameron Loe to the active roster.

To make room, the Cubs designated second baseman Brent Lillibridge and reliever Hisanori Takahashi for assign-ment, and optioned right-hander Rafael Dolis to Triple-A Iowa.

Barney missed the Cubs’ first 12 games of the season after suffering a lacerated left knee late in spring train-ing. Lillibridge played in nine games for the Cubs and had one hit in 24 at-bats.

Ransom appeared in five games for San Diego and was hitless in 11 at-bats.

The Cubs hope those moves will help their defense and a struggling bullpen, problems president of baseball opera-tions Theo Epstein is confident won’t be as troublesome when Wrigley Field undergoes a $500 million renovation.

“We need revenues to increase in order for us to execute our baseball plan,” Epstein said. “We expect them to.”

Chicago entered Tuesday with a 4-8 record.

“We are off to a slower start than we would’ve liked,” Epstein said. “Some slop-py play that we need to eradicate sooner than later.”

Gregg spent spring training with the Los Angeles Dodgers and has experience as a closer, including saving 23 games for the Cubs in 2009.

Loe was claimed off waivers on Sun-day from the Seattle Mariners and has a 1-1 record and 10.80 ERA in four appearances.

Takahashi was in his first season with the Cubs and had a 6.00 ERA in three appearances. Dolis was called up Sat-urday and pitched a scoreless one-third of an inning.

The Cubs are already on their third closer after struggles by Carlos Marmol and a forearm injury to Kyuji Fujikawa.

Entering Tuesday, the Cubs’ bull-pen had blown four of seven save opportunities.

sledgehammer hitting a brick,” Hartleb said. “He’s got such strong hands and forearms, and I think he has a lot of natural power. ... He could be a major threat in RBI situations.”

Roper stands at about 6-feet but weighs close to 210 pounds, and most of his weight is in his lower body. His family is built in the same way, including his brother, Ryne, who has commit-ted to play baseball at Illinois next season and is even bigger than his older brother.

In 2011, Roper Reid was the Prep Baseball Report’s No. 5 baseball prospect in Illinois before redshirting his first sea-son following knee surgery.

He began his career in 2012 against Notre Dame when he doubled in his first at-bat and hit a home run in the next. It looked as if the Illini had found another power hitter. Roper hit 10 home runs during his senior year in high school and hit some in summer baseball before his freshman season.

But Roper would only hit that one home run, which shocked Roper. It was a huge relief for him when he hit his first of the season in the first game of the series Friday, but the wind was blowing out on a cold and tough day for pitchers. Illinois scored

17 runs on 20 hits, so that home run could’ve been a bit of a fluke.

Roper said Saturday was much more important for him. He stood in the on-deck circle with Illinois trailing 4-3 in the eighth inning before David Keri-an singled home the game-tying run. He said it felt like a weight lifted off his shoulder, and now he felt much more relaxed as he waited for a new pitcher. The left-handed Roper has been especially terrible against left-handed pitchers this season, so Purdue brought in left-hander Tim McElroy, who retired Roper the day before; however, Hart-leb never thought about pinch hitting for Roper.

He stood in the batter’s box timing every warm-up throw from McElroy, remembering how he got himself out the day before on the fastball.

On McElroy’s second pitch, Roper got another fastball that he lined over the right field fence for the game-winning home run.

Snider said that’s the pitch he has too often seen Roper pull foul. Roper followed up his per-formance by going 3-for-5 on Sunday, adding his third home run of the weekend.

“Haven’t seen a smile on his face all year up until this week-end,” Snider said.

had a previous relationship with the Spencers’ aunt, and she used that to help Illinois stand out.

“Coming out of high school, Ashley was highly recruited,” Buford-Bailey said. “I knew her aunt, who was also their track coach in high school. She and I worked that out, with her push-ing Ashley towards Illinois and me doing all I can to help her. The program and our plans here kind of spoke for itself, and it did the rest of the work.”

Choosing Illinois began to pay dividends almost instantly for Ashley, as she ran several school bests and collected many accolades during her freshman year. Ahlivia, on the other hand, had enjoyed success as a sprint-er at Louisville, but a change in preference left her wanting to switch to the 800.

“My coach admitted he had never coached the 800 before, and that really scared me,” Ahlivia said. “I felt like I had the potential to be one of the best in the 800, and I wanted someone who had been there and really knew what they were doing. That was one of the things that attracted me to Coach (Buford-Bailey).”

Ahlivia said she and Ashley have been teammates since kin-dergarten. She said they main-tain a give-and-take system, where one encourages the oth-er on a bad day, and they both push each other even harder on good days.

“If I mess up, she’ll have my head on a platter because she’s my sister, and she wants me to succeed,” Ahlivia said.

Their sibling support system was tested earlier this year in the buildup to the 2013 Big Ten Indoor Championships. Ashley got frustrated leading up to Big Tens because she was held out by a hamstring injury.

“(Ahlivia) pulled me off to the side and let me cry and kick and scream, and then she calmed me down,” Ashley said. “She told me to be patient with that injury and to not force anything. Ever since that day, I haven’t had any prob-lems with my hamstring. ... She really helps me put things into perspective.”

The tables were turned just before Big Tens, however, when a hamstring problem reared up again. This time, it affected the other Spencer sister.

“The day before we left for Big Tens, I pulled my hamstring and could barely walk,” Ahlivia said. “It was very challenging for me because I was really ready to get out there, but I couldn’t com-pete. I felt like it was the end of the world for me, but Ashley was there for me.”

Apart from being with each other, the sisters credit Buford-Bailey for their growth and suc-cess this season.

“I would never have dreamed of doing some of the workouts (coach Buford-Bailey uses) at Louisville,” Ahlivia said. “She jokes around with us and keeps it lighthearted but also pushes and encourages us when it’s needed. Even though it hurts like hell, she encourages you to get through that workout, and she can advise us because she graduated from here and has been through this. She’s such a rock, and she’s so determined, and that has rubbed off on the whole team.”

The Spencer sisters have seen each other mature, but they have also tried to maintain their humility.

“I love seeing (Ashley) run fast times and being in the limelight.” Ahlivia said. “It’s kind of weird for me because everybody sees her as this track icon, but I just see her as my sister. On the track, she’s just another teammate, but off it, she’s just my little sister.”

extended his hitting streak to 21 games with a bunt single in the fourth, now the third-longest ever by an Illini. The next batter was his brother, Jordan, who also reached base via a bunt.

Every Illini starter had a hit, and Illinois finished with 13 as a team, the fourth consecutive game tallying double-digit

hits.This game was different than the home run explosion the Illini offense has recently enjoyed, as the Illini didn’t hit the ball out of the park at all during the game.

“Guys found ways to put the ball in play and found a way to score without smacking the ball all over the ballpark, which was impressive to me that the guys matured enough to do that,” Hartleb said.

BASEBALL

BY HOWARD FENDRICHTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

A marathon course runs 26.2 miles along an open road. Much tougher to secure than an arena with doors and walls.

Yet across the U.S. and around the world, from West Bend, Wis., and London this weekend, to Nash-ville, Tenn., next week and Copen-hagen next month, organizers of road races are trying to figure out how to improve security after the Boston Marathon bombings.

Paris Marathon director Joel Laine, whose race was held earli-er this month, put it this way Tues-day: “There will be a ‘before’ and ‘after-Boston’” from now on.

Still, with thousands — and sometimes hundreds of thousands — of spectators and entrants scat-tered along the route, there are limits to how much can be done to protect everyone, marathon offi-cials, experts and runners cau-tioned. They spoke in dozens of interviews with the Associated Press a day after a pair of bombs went off seconds apart near the finish line in Boston, killing three people, including an 8-year-old boy, and injuring more than 170 others.

“This is what everyone thought might happen” following the 9/11 attacks, said Tom Derderian, coach of the Greater Boston Track Club and author of a book about the Boston Marathon.

“This is a 26-mile foot race. With both sides of the street, that’s 52 miles to secure,” Derderian said. “How? You can’t have everyone go through metal detectors.”

Marathons aren’t just for elite athletes: they have steadily increased in popularity among recreational runners and those raising money for charity. In the aftermath of Monday’s attack, which President Barack Obama called an act of terrorism, some marathons heard from runners

wondering whether races would be canceled. Yet nearly 40 events all over the globe are set for this weekend alone — including Ham-burg, Belgrade, Salt Lake City, Lansing, Mich., and the Jersey Shore. There was no indication that any would be called off.

Scott Dickey, CEO of Compet-itor Group Inc., which manages more than 35 marathons and half marathons around the world, said he’s “been in deep conversations already” with the FBI and gov-ernment agencies “to talk about enhancing security protocol and personnel” for the St. Jude Coun-try Music Marathon and Half Mar-athon in Nashville on April 27.

“What we’re going to do with yesterday’s event is we’re going to learn from it, and we’re going to increase, certainly in the near term and probably permanently, the number of security person-nel, both private and public, at our start lines and finish lines,” Dickey said.

Susie Smisek, director of Sep-tember’s Omaha Marathon, said Boston does indeed change the way race organizers go about their job now.

“We’ll make sure we have more security available, that people are more aware and are aware of their surroundings,” Smisek said.

Rick Nealis, director of the Marine Corps Marathon since 1993, pointed to factors that make these races unique among sports — and therefore more of a chal-lenge to secure.

“It’s a participatory sport. At any running event, especially Bos-ton, world champion and Olympic athletes stand at the start line, and at the same time, there’s some-one from Boise, Idaho, or Duluth, Minn., that did the qualifying time and are in the same field, on the same course, in the same weather as these champions, competing,” Nealis said.

Marathon security deep issue after Boston bombings

First-year Bears head coach emphasizing high-tempo regimeTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Every-thing moved faster for Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears offense Tuesday at minicamp practice — including the new coach.

The new, up-tempo offense came complete with Marc Trest-man running all over the field, up and down the sidelines, to get his point across to players in a high-energy style the Bears aren’t used to seeing from their head coach.

“That’s just how I have been doing it,” said Trestman, who came to the Bears from the CFL’s Montreal Alouettes after the fir-ing of Lovie Smith. “I like foot-ball and like moving around and making sure people are running

to the ball and that is kind of how I have done it.”

Cutler liked the new approach.“It was faster,” he said. “We

were in and out of the huddle. I think we wanted to try to create as game-like an atmosphere as possible. A lot of plays, in and out.”

The changes included short-er drops by Cutler to throw, the ball getting out quicker and less complicated pass routes. It’s just the opposite of the passing game the Bears used the last three years, and Cutler seemed to like it. It could mean fewer sacks for a quarterback among the most harried in the NFL the last three seasons.

“We’re going to protect the

quarterback and get rid of the ball as fast as we can,” Cutler said. “We want to get the ball to the play makers. That’s where we’re going to make our money, getting them the ball fast and let-ting them make plays for us.”

Cutler has the difficult task of learning a new offense in a contract year. He admitted he’s been watching with interest the other deals for QBs around the league, including Joe Flacco’s six-year, $120 million contract with Baltimore.

“It doesn’t make me mad,” Cutler said. “You know, there’s some big numbers being thrown out there. You can’t get ahead of yourself. We’ve got to win games to sign those contracts. I’m in

my last year obviously. I’m sure everybody knows that. We’ll play it out and see how it goes.”

The Bears were without wide receiver Brandon Marshall as he recovers from a minor hip sur-gery, and kicker Robbie Gould missed practice after spending the final three games last sea-son sidelined with a calf injury. Devin Hester, the NFL’s all-time touchdown return leader who has doubled as a receiver for six seasons, stood on the sidelines watching the offense and partici-pated only when special teams required him to return punts or kicks.

He won’t be a receiver in this offense.

“Devin is going to focus on

being our returner,” Trestman said. “He’s got to be the return-er for him to be here (with the team) and once that is locked into place, which we expect that it will, then we’ll see where it goes from there. But we made a collective decision organiza-tionally. I talked with the guys who have been here. (GM) Phil (Emery) and I had a long conver-sation about it.”

Trestman called it letting Hes-ter “get back to doing what he does best first.”

Among the other changes players are getting used to: Bri-an Urlacher will not be with the team after 13 years.

“I’m very appreciative of the effort and attitude they’ve had

since we’ve been back,” Emery said. “Guys like Lance Briggs have stepped up ... said some very good things. Tim Jennings. That’s all been very positive with the players. At the end of the day, all NFL players know that there’s a ceiling to how long they can play, and they grab every day, and I know that these guys want to win championships and that’s what’s important to them.”

Also Tuesday, the Bears have signed guard-tackle Eben Brit-ton to a one-year contract. The 6-foot-6, 308-pound Britton start-ed 30 of 37 games in four seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Last season, Britton started five of 11 games with Jacksonville, all at left guard.

PITTSBURGH — Rain wiped out Tuesday night’s game between the St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates.

The storm hit at the end of the second inning with the Pirates leading 4-2, and the game was called after a delay of 1 hour, 24 minutes. No makeup date was immediately announced.

The cancellation allows St. Louis starter Jake Westbrook to reset his ERA to 0.00. The right-hander has struggled against the Pirates in his career, and Pitts-burgh turned five consecutive singles in the first inning into four runs.

Pittsburgh starter Jonathan Sanchez — who came in with a 12.96 ERA — allowed two runs in the first inning but retired the side in order in the second.

Matt Holliday had an RBI sin-gle for St. Louis. Garrett Jones, Neil Walker and Pedro Alvarez all had RBI singles for Pitts-burgh. None of it will count,

however, and the game will be replayed in its entirety.

The cancellation allows Pitts-burgh’s depleted bullpen to get a needed day of rest. The Pirates called up reliever Vin Mazzaro from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday for some help after starter James McDonald man-aged to get through just 1 1-3 inning in a 10-6 loss to the Car-dinals on Monday, forcing long relievers Justin Wilson and Bry-an Morris to work a combined 6 1-3 innings.

Pittsburgh manager Clint Hur-dle hoped Sanchez — who made the team out of spring training as a non-roster invitee — would be able work deep enough to get to the setup guys. It hasn’t been the best start to the season for the left-hander. He was roughed up by Arizona in his previous start, allowing nine runs in 3 1-3 innings.

It looked like more of the same in the first inning Tuesday. San-chez walked Shane Robinson on four pitches to start the game.

Carlos Beltran followed with a single two pitches later and Holli-day dumped Sanchez’s next offer-ing into center, bringing home Robinson. Allen Craig lined out to shortstop Clint Barmes, but

Barmes made an error when his attempt to double off Beltran at second ended up in right field. Both pitchers settled down in the second before the rain starting falling.
