The issue of same-sex marriage was argued before the Supreme Court last week in two separate cases, both of which carry potential long-term, national implications for the hot button topic. Locally, reaction to the hearing was varied, with both sides showing support on social media and other platforms.

Paul Nolette, an assistant professor of political science, teaches constitutional law and civil rights and liberties classes to Marquette undergraduates.

Nolette, an expert on courts and public policy, explained the basic arguments underlying the two cases.

“The main argument for oppo-nents of the Defense of Marriage Act and Proposition 8 is that these laws violate the U.S. Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection of the laws by discriminating against people on the basis of their sexual orientation,” Nolette said.

To show their support for same-sex couples, many students changed their Facebook profile pictures to a red equals sign, which was meant to symbolize a call for marriage

The phrase “Rookie of the Year” is synonymous with peo-ple who become exceptionally great early in their careers.

Liz Scott, a doctor of physi-cal therapy who graduated from Marquette’s PT program in 2010, is just that. The Wisconsin Physi-cal Therapy Association named her the organization’s 2012 Rookie of the Year last week.

Pope Francis, who has been praised in his first weeks as pon-tiff for his humble demeanor and commitment to the poor, drew the ire of Catholic traditionalists this past weekend when he broke with papal tradition and washed the feet of two women during a Holy Thurs-day ritual – an honor normally re-served for twelve priests. One of the women was a Serbian Muslim, the other an Italian Catholic.

The Vatican’s chief spokes-man, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said Friday that the move by Pope Francis was “absolutely licit” un-der Church doctrine, the Washing-ton Post reported. The Post also reported that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a state-ment in support of the gesture, as “all members of the church must serve one another in love.”

South Korean President Park Geun-Hye ordered her country’s military leaders to deliver a “strong response” should recent North Ko-rean threats materialize, the New York Times reported yesterday.

During a briefing, the South Korean military presented a plan in which it would pre-emptively attack the North should an imminent nuclear or missile attack be detected.

North Korea raised tensions on the peninsula last week af-ter leader Kim Jong-un declared that a “state of war” existed with the South. During a meeting of the country’s top leaders Sunday, Kim said his country remained dedicated to constructing more nuclear weapons while pursuing economic development.

On Monday, Pak Pong-ju, who is perceived to be an advo-cate for Chinese-style reforms, was appointed premier. In 2007, Pak was removed from that post after he called for a market- based wage system.

While many analysts say the North’s recent rhetoric is simply saber rattling, U.S. officials have indicated that they are taking the threats seriously, with F-22 fighter

When Google users type “Google Nose” into the Google search bar, a landing site for the fake service comes up, intro-ducing the site that “leverages new and existing technologies to offer the sharpest olfactory experience available.”

While “Google Nose” is not real, some companies are trying to create actual artifi-cial nose and smell technol-ogy. California-based company Cyrano Sciences is working to create an electronic nose with a database of smells.

Holmes’ lawyers filed legal papers last week saying Holmes “is currently willing to resolve the case to bring the proceed-ings to a speedy and definite conclusion for all involved” if prosecutors took the death pen-alty off the table, according to the New York Times.

Aggravated assault, domestic violence on the riseMilwaukee-wide trend not found on Marquette’s campus

Aggravated assault numbers continue to rise in Milwaukee, largely because of a 48 percent increase in domestic violence-related assaults from 2011 to 2012, according to the Milwau-kee Police Department.

The numbers, released by MPD in February, indicate that although crime as a whole has decreased, violent crime contin-ues to see a heavy spike, espe-cially in aggravated assault.

“The recent increases in some categories clearly illus-trates that work still needs to be done, but I’m encouraged that greater outreach and collabo-ration in the area of domestic violence prevention may have increased citizen confidence,” MPD Chief Edward Flynn said in a statement about the most recent crime data. “It appears that this confidence is leading to more reporting.”

By Nick [email protected]

Marquette Department of Public Safety Captain Russell Shaw, however, said domestic abuse and aggravated assault remain two completely sepa-rate issues. He said what sepa-rates domestic violence from aggravated assault is the rela-tionship aspect involved in the harm done to the victim.

“Domestic abuse is generally looked at as two people involved in an intimate relationship and is a pattern of behavior which involves the abuse by one part-ner against another,” Shaw said. “Aggravated assault is a serious offense and is the unlawful at-tack by one person upon another for the purpose of inflicting serious bodily injury.”

Shaw said Marquette does not face too many issues with do-mestic abuse on campus.

“As far as the campus is concerned, very few cases of domestic abuse are reported to DPS annually,” Shaw said. “Most assaults reported to DPS are misdemeanor batteries that usually incur minor inju-ries and are student-on-student related crimes.”

The issue of domestic vio-lence has been sensitive as of late in the Milwaukee area.

Sex, gender differentiated at student discussionTown hall-style meeting gave studentsa ‘safe space’ to talk

Gender expression, iden-tity, and gender roles in society and at Marquette were the fo-cus of a town hall-style meeting held last Tuesday in the Center for Intercultural Engagement.

About 40 people took part in “Let’s Talk About...Gender, Sex, and Gender Expression,” the second of several meetings sponsored by The Center for In-tercultural Engagement. The dis-cussion was led and facilitated by Susannah Bartlow, the director of the Gender & Sexuality Resource Center, and Sheraden Bobot, program assistant for the GSRC.

It was a chance for students to discuss their understanding of gender roles and to learn vocab-ulary they might not have been exposed to prior to the meeting. The major learning point from the evening was the difference between sex and gender.

“We frequently use sex and gender interchangeably when they mean different things. Sex is biological in nature while gen-der is a social construction,” said John Janulis, coordinator for intercultural engagement in the Office of Student Development, in a follow-up email.

Among the topics discussed was a “Mrs. Degree”, the con-cept that women enter certain majors in order to get married, not because they are interested in the subject matter.

Participants discussed the chal-lenges facing different sexes within certain majors, as well. Male students who enter the Col-lege of Nursing and female stu-dents in science- or math-based majors such as engineering often face negative stereotypes because they study in fields typically asso-ciated with the opposite sex.

By Emily [email protected]

According to the Marquette Fall Semester Census, less than 10 percent of freshmen in the College of Nursing from 2009 to 2012 were male, while fe-males made up between 18 and 22 percent of freshmen in the College of Engineering over the same period.

“Our main goal for (the meet-ing) was to provide a safe space for students to talk openly and honestly about their understand-ings and experiences related to their identities,” Janulis said.

Although gender may not seem particularly controversial for a discussion topic, experts often cite it as a major factor in societal norms and identity.

“Gender is inextricably bound up in all our social and cultural structures,” said Pamela Hill Nettleton, an assistant professor in the College of Communica-tion, in an email. Nettleton said expectations associated with a given gender are assigned early and are continued throughout life, aided by media portrayals of gender roles.

“In any cultural and social or-ganization, including educational ones like universities, many of these assumptions are readily revealed,” Nettleton said.

Following the event, Bart-low said there were many dif-ferent levels of understand-ing among the attendees,

Jennifer Sebena, a Wauwatosa police officer, was killed by her husband while she was on duty last December. Despite this, the National Law Enforcement Of-ficers Memorial Fund declined to include Sebena because she was a victim of domestic abuse.

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker wrote a letter to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund asking it to reconsider its initial decision.

“Officer Sebena’s death was very personal to me as she was on duty – patrolling the neigh-borhood where I live with my family in Wauwatosa, Wis-consin – on the night she was killed,” Walker wrote. “Offi-cer Sebena was protecting the citizens of Wauwatosa on De-cember 24, 2012 when she was ambushed. It should not mat-ter who committed the murder as the act was taken against a police officer on duty.”

An online petition on Change.org has more than 16,000 signa-tures collected as of Monday in an effort to get Sebena’s name on the memorial in Washing-ton, D.C. The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund will reconvene Wednesday to reassess the decision.

sometimes making it challenging to start the discussion.

“My hope is that we can get to a deeper place in the conversation,” Bartlow said.

Despite the challenges fac-ing the discussion, feedback from students and organizers appeared positive.

“Intercultural Engagement is

doing something good here – hosting discussions about impor-tant issues and how they impact the Marquette community,” said Jesse Dirkman, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences who attended the discussion. “It’s an idea with a lot of potential, and I hope that these discussions continue in the future.”

Gender is inextricably bound up in all our social and cultural structures.”

MU law professor to appear on Wis. ballots todayFallone challenges incumbent Supreme Court judge for seat

Voters throughout Wisconsin are heading to the polls today to decide who will be the next mem-ber of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Marquette Law Professor Ed Fallone will face off against incumbent judge Patience Roggensack.

Justice Patience Rog-gensack was elected to the Wisconsin Su-preme Court in 2003 and is running for re-election. Roggensack is endorsed by a long list of district attorneys and circuit court judges. Her website says she sees herself as a candidate who represents neutrality and experience.

Ed Fallone has been a con-stitutional law professor at

By Jason [email protected]

Marquette for 20 years and said on his website that he is running for the Wisconsin Supreme Court to en-sure fairness in the courts and to increase access to the legal system. His website says special interests and corporations have too much influence on the court and that he is the one to stand up to them.

Throughout his campaign, Fal-lone has said dysfunction is one of the central problems on the court. In June of last year, Justice David Prosser allegedly put his hands around the neck of Justice

Ann Bradley in a choke-hold during an argument in her office.

“I ask the public: judge me on me,” Roggensack said in a de-bate March 22. “I don’t

get into fisticuffs with my col-leagues. I don’t swear at them or use bad language. So I want them to judge me as they want me to judge them: fairly and impartially

based on what I have done, as I would do for them.”

Fallone said unity on the bench is necessary to keep it functioning well.

“I think we have a problem with dysfunction on the court, as has been noted by national observers, national experts, members of the bar who ap-proach me on the campaign trail, and it ultimately reduces to one thing: an attitude of the cur-rent members on the court of us versus them,” Fallone said.

In the same March 22 debate, the candi-dates discussed the al-leged ethics violation against Prosser.

“There has to be a hearing,” Fallone said. “The public needs to hear the evidence. The public needs to know what is the justification that Justice Prosser has,

what were the facts. And there has to be resolution. It’s been almost two years. And where there is no resolution, when the case is stuck in legal limbo ...

@mutribunetweet tweet

then there’s no accountability.”Roggensack said the issue

would be resolved after the race.“The matter with Justice

Prosser and Justice Bradley will have resolution,” Roggensack said. “When I am done with this race and we get through April 2, I will ask that this is placed on the court’s calendar for the seven of us (on the court) because there is repair work that needs to be done. ... There will be accountability on that matter.”

Roggensack said in the de-bate that she was removing her-self from the ethics trial because she witnessed the incident and separated the two justices.

“I physically separated Jus-tice Prosser and Justice Bradley with my own body and held onto

Ed Fallone

Justice Bradley until she calmed down,” she said. “I am not an unbiased judge (in that case).”

Roggensack did not mention in the debate how she would address the case. Last fall, she told her fellow justices that she would issue a letter of apology. Chief Justice Shirley Abraham-son dismissed this as “divisive and window dressing.”

The case is currently stalled because only two justices are on the case, and a total of four are needed to take action on an ethics trial.

“That’s when people begin to question, is there a differ-ent rule for Supreme Court jus-tices, or is everyone accountable for their actions in the state of Wisconsin?” Fallone said.

Is there a different rule for Supreme Court justices, or is everyone accountable for their actions in the state of Wisconsin?”

Prosecutor not charging MPD officers for homocideReccomendation from Derek Williams’ inquest trial ignored

Though the inquest jury of Derek Williams’ death recom-mended in February that the state file criminal charges against the three officers involved, John Franke, the special prosecutor assigned to the case, decided not to press homicide charges Friday. The three officers failed to respond to Williams’ re-quest for medical attention and he died in police custody.

Franke decided against the recommendation because he did not believe there was enough evidence to estab-lish guilt of homicide beyond a reasonable doubt.

Williams, 22, diedin the back

of a squad car in July 2011, most likely from a sickle cell crisis. He complained to officers about breathing difficulties for nearly 15 minutes before fainting and dying. The officers ignored Williams and told him “you’re breathing just fine.” Only after Williams became silent and was slumped over for several min-utes did the officers respond with medical help and CPR.

Franke’s report concluded that the officers’ inattention and hes-itancy to respond to Williams was a “grievous mistake” that deprived Williams of medical attention that may have saved his life. Franke said he could not aptly prove whether any additional medical help would have saved his life because of the uncertainty surrounding the cause of Williams’ death.

“Whether the mistake made any actual medical difference for Williams cannot be known because of the uncertainty about the cause of death and because,

Marquette nation travels to NCAA tournamentMU fans head to Washington D.C. for Elite Eight berth

When the Marquette men’s basketball team competed in NCAA Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight tournament games last week, several hundred Mar-quette fans traveled to Wash-ington, D.C., from across the country to support the team.

Despite being mostly strang-ers, the fans came together to create a close-knit community.

The Golden Eagles were stationed at the Washington Marriot Hotel in Washington, D.C. Two hours before each game, fans gathered at the ho-tel for a pre-game reception and to send off the team with cheers, chants and high fives. The Marquette pep band and spirit squad kept the crowd going with songs and cheers. The team paraded through the hotel lobby as it made its way to the buses outside.

Michael Bartley, a 1984 graduate of the College of Communication and managing editor at WQED in Pittsburgh, said he appreciated the chance to see the team live.

“You have to realize we Mar-quette alums who don’t live in Milwaukee don’t get to be with the players often,” Bartley said. “We just cheer while watch-ing the games on television. So seeing them off and wish-ing them luck in person was such a thrill. And our players were so accommodating, shaking every-one’s hand.”

The presence of the Marquette community was apparent at the pre-game recep-tions, city streets and the Ve-rizon Center, where the tourna-ment games were played. On

even if we accept sickle (cell) crisis as the cause of death, there is no way to determine whether earlier intervention by the para-medics would have made any difference,” the report read.

Though Franke chose not to press charges, Daniel Blinka, a professor at Marquette Law School, said such a decision is not legally binding, and fur-ther legal action could ensue for the officers. Along with the family filing a civil suit for monetary damages, Blinka said the officers involved could be charged at the federal lev-el on the basis of a violation of Williams’ civil rights.

According to a March 29 ar-ticle from the Associated Press, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Milwaukee has not yet made a decision on whether to sue MPD for civil rights abuses.

Franke’s decision not to file charges was met with some pro-test and concern in Milwaukee.

A group of about 75 people

marched down Wisconsin Av-enue Friday protesting police brutality and Franke’s judg-ment, according to a March 30 article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Mayleen Jordan, Williams’ aunt, told the Journal Senti-nel in the same article that the family will continue to fight for a better outcome.

“As a family, we’re going to pray that there will be jus-tice,” Jordan said. “As hard as they fight, we’re going to f ight harder.”

Khalil Coleman of Occupy the Hood, a grassroots organization that has worked closely with Williams’ family, echoed Jor-dan’s commitment to justice.

“We will continue the fight for justice,” Coleman said. “Not just justice for Derek Wil-liams, but justice for all civil and human rights.”

Community members in-vested in the Williams case called for the resignation of

Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn last fall. Flynn released a statement Friday reacting to Franke’s decision in which he said the involved officers – Ja-son Bleichwel, Jeffrey Cline and Richard Ticcioni – will return to active duty soon.

“I have learned of Judge Fran-ke’s decision to not file charges in connection with the death of Derek Williams,” the statement read. “The Milwaukee Police Department cooperated fully with the inquest process, and members of our Internal Affairs Division observed the inquest proceedings. No new informa-tion was brought to light that would lead us to reopen our original internal investigation. Based on this fact, the officers will soon be returned to full-duty status. The Milwaukee Police Department is commit-ted to the protection of the com-munity and to restoring the trust of those whose confidence was shaken by these events.”

the way to the Verizon Center and after the game, Marquette fans were seen in bars and restaurants chanting, “We are

Marquette.”“The Mar-

quette commu-nity is second to none,” Bartley said. “When I got to the Sweet Sixteen pre-game reception, I ran into people I hadn’t seen in 30 years. We simply picked up where we left off. Our Marquette com-

munity is one of keen loyalty. We never lose that.”

For some, interaction with

the team started before leav-ing Milwaukee. The Marquette pep band and spirit squad traveled with the basketball team on a charter plane.

“Traveling with the team and the band was absolutely won-derful,” said Katherine Padilla, a junior in the College of Arts & Sciences and member of the Marquette pep band. “There was such a sense of camarade-rie among everyone.”

While the majority of fans in the arena cheered for Mi-ami and Syracuse, a concen-trated section of Marquette fans opposite the Marquette bench made their voices heard. During the Miami game, the Marquette fan section filled the stadium with cheers.

“We may not have had the

most fans at a game, but we were very vocal and respectful at the game,” Padilla said. “I think that’s the kind of attitude the Marquette community as a whole has – we’re very pas-sionate about Marquette, but we respect others around us.”

Joseph Flores, a sophomore in the College of Health Sciences, was happy to be at the game.

“The camaraderie we expe-rience when seeing other MU fans was thrilling,” Flores said. “It really made me proud to see so many people com-ing together to appreciate and enjoy the great basket-ball tradition this school has developed over the years.”

Flores traveled with a group of close friends in car from Milwaukee to Washington,

D.C., Wednesday night and arrived Thursday morning.

“We traveled with a few of my buddies; it was a long trip in the car, but it was great be-cause we all split the gas, took turns driving and had a blast,” Flores said.

Flores said he enjoyed ex-ploring the city and seeing the national monuments and cherry blossoms in between games.

“The Marquette commu-nity really impressed me this past weekend, because I real-ized how vast Marquette Na-tion is,” Flores said. “There is an instant connection, whether you are on campus or across the country. The Marquette community is very strong and constantly growing.”

Marquette supporters cheered on the men’s basketball team in the Verizon Center team during Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight tournament games.

Marriage: GSA students ‘optimistic’ for ruling


MUSG: Knight, Bresnahan endorse Schultz, Bowman after campaign violation

equality. This social media move-ment was initiated Wednesday by the Human Rights Campaign, an organization founded in 1980 to support equality for lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender Americans.

Tyler Tucky, a sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences, was among those who changed their profile picture.

“I changed my picture because I think the message of equal-ity needs to be vocalized more, it was a movement, and, through-out the day, it was inspirational to see all the reasons for changing pictures,” Tucky said. “I did it be-cause as a gay young man I believe everyone should be allowed to love whomever they love.”

At Marquette, the Gender Sexu-ality Alliance has been active in the push for same-sex marriage and is hopeful about the Supreme Court’s ruling.

“We are cautiously optimistic regarding the potential rulings; we hope that the justices recognize that love between two people is not restricted to heterosexual couples and that gay individuals should have their relationships recognized to the full extent of the law,” GSA said in a statement Monday.

Nolette also outlined the opposing viewpoint.

“Opponents disagree that this is a violation of equal protection,” No-lette said. “According to this side of the argument, sexual orientation has never been treated similarly to race for the purposes of equal protection. After all, definitions of marriage as between a man and a woman have been around for centuries.”

Additionally, Nolette said, some opponents of same-sex marriage argue that the issue should be de-cided by voters and legislators, not an unelected court.

The chairman of the U.S. Con-ference of Catholic Bishops, Arch-bishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco, attended and led prayers at the March for Marriage in

Washington, D.C. March 26. The USCCB issued a press release urg-ing the Supreme Court to uphold DOMA and Proposition 8.

“It is my hope and prayer that the Supreme Court will uphold Proposition 8 and DOMA, respect-ing the very nature of the human person and the nature of marriage as the union of one man and one woman,” Archbishop Cordileone said in the statement.

Nolette said the oral arguments before the court about Proposi-tion 8 seemed to suggest that the court may be “looking for a way out of deciding” about same-sex marriage in a broad sense.

“It appeared to me that the Court is not prepared to strike down same-sex marriage bans across the country but is also not entirely com-fortable with a decision upholding Proposition 8.” Nolette said. “The Court can do something known as ‘dismissing the case as improvident-ly granted,’ which would essentially mean that the Court thought it was too early to decide this case.”

GSA wrote that the two cases ar-gued in front of the Supreme Court last Wednesday are only a step in their goal of gender equality.

“While we are looking forward to a future where same-sex couples are equally recognized under the law, we realize that this is still an uphill battle, that one court ruling will not overturn years of societal discrimi-nation,” their statement said. “Rath-er, changing the hearts and minds of individuals will happen on a per-sonal level. As Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, ‘Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.’”

Nolette predicted that, if either case is ruled on its merit and not dismissed as improvidently granted, the ruling would likely come close to the end of this Supreme Court’s term – sometime around June 27. If dismissed, Nolette said the ruling could come at any time, but likely not until at least May in order to allow for dissent to the dismissal.

occurred during the primary and were removed from the race. The hearing in which they were found guilty was held last Tues-day. Knight and Bresnahan then filed an appeal on the ruling, which was heard by the MUSG appeals committee. The appeals committee is separate from the elections committee that heard the initial violation case.

“The appeals committee found that the initial ruling by the elec-tions committee was completely consistent and in accordance with the MUSG c o n s t i t u t i o n , that there was a violation with sufficient evi-dence and that the penalty was fair and neither capricious nor arbitrary,” said judicial administrator Rebekah Newman, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, who chaired the appeals committee.

The committee was made up of Newman; Kyle Stranahan, an off campus senator and a senior in the College of Busi-ness Administration; and Heinz Schelhammer, a senior senator from the College of Business Administration. As chairman of the Business and Administration committee, Schick would nor-mally sit on the committee, but he was replaced by Schelham-mer due to his conflict of interest in the case as a fellow candidate.

One of Knight’s and Bresna-han’s chief complaints was that the 17-vote deduction penalty they were assessed – 5 percent of their primary vote total – was too harsh for the violation committed. David Kuester, the MUSG elections coordinator

and chair of the elections com-mittee that heard the initial vio-lations case, said the penalty was assessed based on prec-edent set by past mass texting violations, the most recent of which occurred in 2008. The appeals committee found that the punishment was suitable based on precedent.

Knight and Bresnahan said they were upset about the deci-

sion, but they have endorsed Schultz and Bowman in the general election. They had the op-portunity to file to run as write-in candidates by 5 p.m. Mon-day night but chose not to.

“We felt we had been fighting an uphill battle the entire time, which we are ex-

hausted from fighting,” Knight said of that decision. “We fully support Sam and Zach and wish them the best. We believe Mar-quette students will be in very capable hands with them.”

Bowman said he and Schultz are happy to be back in the race.

“The fact that we’re back in the race due to the viola-tion is just plain silly, but nonetheless, we’re obviously excited to have the opportu-nity to win the student body’s support,” Bowman said.

PLATFORMS

Schultz and Bowman have focused their platform on aca-demic issues. Schultz has spent the last two years as chair of MUSG’s Academics Commit-tee, and he said his experiences dealing with academic issues gives his ticket an advantage.

“There are a lot of academic issues that need to be addressed, and I think we’re the only ones focusing on that,” Schultz said.

Schultz and Bowman’s plat-form revolves around improving advising, reforming CheckMarq and also making the Core of Common Studies more struc-tured. They plan to work with the new dean of the College of Arts & Sciences, Richard Holz, on all academic issues.

Tarpey and Schick have also made academic reform an issue on their platform, with Tarpey noting advising as a key issue.

Overall, Tarpey described Student Organization Fund-ing as the biggest issue for her campaign, pointing to increased publicity as the biggest reform needed.

“I think it is one of the big-gest ways that students will see return on their student activity fee,” Tarpey said.

In light of the events that led to Schultz and Bowman be-ing included in the ballot, both tickets have expressed interest in revisiting campaign rules, agreeing that there could be more detail in the rules, specifi-cally in regard to what defines an unsolicited message, the violation for which Knight and Bresnahan were punished.

With so little time left to campaign, both tickets are con-centrating their efforts on in-creasing voter turnout. Both have limited resources left due to the extended campaign sea-son and would like to allocate them in the best possible areas.

“I think the more difficult thing will be increasing the low 17 percent turnout rate MUSG had for the primary,” Schultz said. “I know the stu-dent body is sick of this elec-tion cycle, but I really hope stu-dents will check their email and take a minute to vote.”

The fact that we’re back

in the race due to the violation is just plain silly, but nonetheless, we’re obviously excited to have the opportunity...”

Scott: Marquette grad cites PT professors as ‘phenomenal mentors’exercise group like the one she assisted with at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

Before working in Chicago, Scott started her physical ther-apy career at West Allis Memo-rial Hospital, where she was of-fered a full time position after completing her residency. It was there she chose to specialize in neurological physical therapy.

She said she had phenomenal mentors throughout her experi-ences at West Allis, but in the end she had the deepest con-nection with the patients who had neurological-re-lated diagnoses.

“It was throughout PT school and my interactions with patients of all types of diag-noses that I re-alized that the n e u r o l o g i c a l population is one in which there is the most poten-tial to positively impact someone’s life on a daily basis,” Scott said. “There aren’t many jobs available in which you, as a professional, can have an impact on others each day just by doing your job.”

Besides the new program she is developing in Chicago, Scott said she also sees herself teach-ing future therapists, whether it is at Silver Cross Hospital or in the classroom.

“I hope to have found a teach-ing opportunity in the Chicago area that is comparable to the one I had while in Milwaukee,” Scott said. “My passion for the education of the future of our profession lies in both the clinical instruction and didactic education of the students.”

Scott said when she found out who nominated her – one of her Marquette professors – she was incredibly humbled.

“Each of the women who con-tributed to my nomination have touched me in a particular way and have significantly contrib-uted to me becoming the physi-cal therapist that I am today,” Scott said. “I would not be the person I am professionally with-out each of them. It is an honor to know that they have the confi-dence in me to nominate me for such a significant award.”

Tina Stoeckmann, a clinical assistant professor in the College of Health Sciences, nominated Scott for the award. Stoeck-mann is also the neurologic residency program coordinator at Marquette.

“We are really excited she got this award, and she is very de-serving,” Stoeckmann said. “She is exactly the kind of person they had in mind when they wrote this type of recognition.”

Stoeckmann said she nominat-ed Scott for the award because

of everything she has accom-plished so far.

“She’s already head and shoul-ders above the other profes-sionals in her age group or peer group,” S t o e c k m a n n said. “She has accomplished so much already, and she’s such a dynamic, posi-tive, outgoing

person that she gets involved in her community; she takes on leadership roles. She is just that type of person, so I think there is no stopping her.”

Stoeckmann said she first had Scott in class in 2009 and that Scott was already standing out from other students early in her academic career.

“She asked great questions. She followed up with outside projects. ... I thought she was fantastic enough that I kept her on to be my lab supervisor for the class,” Stoeckmann said.

Scott returned praise for Stoeckmann, saying that pro-fessors in the physical therapy department made her Marquette experience unforgettable.

“They were mentors from the very first day of the program,” Scott said. “I continue to reach out to many of them for guidance and mentorship and believe that I was able to build bonds that will carry me through my PT career.”

Scott said another influence was the friendships she made throughout the program.

“I am now married to a fel-low Marquette graduate, Don-ald Scott, and the number of Marquette graduates and stu-dents who were at our wedding is evidence of the strong bonds

that were formed during my years at Marquette,” Scott said. “It’s truly priceless.”

Stoeckmann said Scott is an incredible person, whether it is because of how she cares for her patients or how she goes about her daily life.

“If you get a chance to meet her, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about; if you don’t get that chance, you missed out on something you don’t even know is great,” Stoeckmann said.

Stoekmann said that Scott’s personality is contagious, much like her laugh.

“She was always very bub-bly, very positive – she had an easy laugh,” Stoeckmann said. “But she also occasionally has a little snort in her laugh, so when she laughs, she makes every-body else laugh. That follows her wherever she goes.”

Stoeckmann said in five years she could see Scott in a leadership position in her

community and profession.“Her strength through col-

lege laid the foundation, but the things that she has done in the last couple of years since she graduated have, too,” Stoeck-mann said. “It’s further support for the fact that she is just going to continue to explode. She is just going to keep getting better and better as she grows profes-sionally and personally because she is just such a neat person.”

She was always very

bubbly, very positive – she had an easy laugh.”

STAFF EDITORIAL

Why we will not endorse any MUSG ticket in this election

turn in votes

for musg president

here

In 1988, the Tribune editorial board offered support for both MUSG presi-dent and executive vice president candi-dates, until then-candidate Scott Walker released a brochure slamming his oppo-nent and used his campaign staff to pick up and throw out copies of the Tribune. The Tribune then retracted its origi-nal editorial supporting both candidates and instead threw its support behind Walker’s opponent, John Quigley.

The Tribune has not been particu-larly active in MUSG endorsements since then, but this year, our editorial board wanted to change that. Howev-er, based on conversations we’ve had – some of them off the record – with those involved about the candidates and how this campaign has transpired, we do not feel we can in good conscience endorse either ticket.

Certain aspects of both tickets did show some promise. In our interviews with both sets of candidates, Sam Schultz displayed motivation to im-prove MUSG from within, and his heart seems to be genuinely in the right place. He also portrayed strong leadership skills, intellect and dedication.

Similarly, Thomas Schick showed the potential to be a pivotal mem-ber of MUSG, and we appreciate his involvement and past achievements in the organization.

We stated in an editorial last week that the chaotic elections process this year would likely not improve the 17 per-cent voter turnout from the primary, nor influence general feelings of students that MUSG is more or less an ineffec-tive governing body. We hoped to find that one of the tickets would present it-self as the clear choice to change poor

perceptions about student government and help the organization evolve, but we had too many reservations about each ticket to make that conclusion about either one.

Calls for “more transparency” and “out-reach” are only meaningful if the prom-ises are backed with the necessary expe-riences and are given in good faith. We expect our candidates to do more than “talk the talk” when running for office; we expect their behavior to reflect their words. While we saw glimpses of those good intentions during our interviews, the signs to the contrary outweighed any hope of a clear-cut recommendation to Marquette students.

We are by no means discouraging stu-dents from voting or caring about the election process – we sincerely hope more students become engaged. But in this race, based on the past events and the conversations mentioned above, we cannot endorse either ticket on prin-ciple. If the way this campaign was conducted is any reflection of how the eventual winners govern, the future of MUSG could be very troubling.

Each ticket of course has strengths and weaknesses that the other does not. Whoever wins tomorrow’s election will do so based on perceived qualifica-tions, and we hope the victors become the leaders MUSG needs. We would never have considered endorsing if we did not have that desire.

The same can probably be said for the Tribune editorial board in 1988. Its mem-bers, too, strived to get involved in the electoral process, only to find that their principles prevented them from making a decision based solely on the issues.

It is unfortunate that we have gone 25 years without making major waves with our support in an MUSG elec-tion. But once again, in 2013, the Tri-bune will not endorse candidates for student government president or executive vice president.

Tulsa health case demands accountability

Imagine walking to the mailbox one day, finding a letter from the Tulsa Health Department and Oklahoma State Department of Health and reading the bolded statement, “As a precaution, we are recommending that you get tested for hepatitis C virus, hepatitis B virus, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).”

About 7,000 people read those words last week when they learned that a Tulsa, Okla. dentist office they had visited in the past seven years – run by Dr. Scott Harrington – currently faces 17 allega-tions of safety and health violations. The investigation conducted by the Okla-homa Board of Dentistry began when an individual came down with hepatitis C after an appointment at the office.

According to the complaint filed, the allegations include an unlocked and unattended drug cabinet holding ex-pired drugs (some up to 20 years old), multiple sterilization and cross-con-tamination issues involving tools and needles and a lack of maintained drug logs. Perhaps the worst allegation, though, was that unauthorized and unli-censed employees had been administer-ing IVs to sedate patients, which only the licensed dentist is allowed to do.

To make matters worse, the complaint also notes that Harrington and his staff told investigators that a “high popula-tion of known infectious disease carrier patients” receive dental care from him.

This is obviously an extreme situa-tion, and the investigation will likely uncover many more factors at play, but it still begs a question that ex-tends beyond this isolated incident: What happens when the professionals we trust can no longer be trusted?

Dr. Harrington has 36 years of ex-perience. He is a 1974 graduate of the University of Washington School of Dentistry. According to reports of cur-rently at-risk patients, his office was always incredibly clean, which led them to believe health procedures were being properly followed.

But Harrington is a professional, and he likely learned safety and health proce-dures in the early years of his education. He knew the tools being used were not properly cleaned and sterilized. He knew the drugs in the cabinet were expired, and he continued to administer morphine when a new shipment hadn’t arrived in four years. And he knew that his un-licensed assistants were not supposed to provide sedatives to patients.

Most importantly, he knew he was tarnishing the doctor-patient

relationship, and yet he did it anyway.Although a documented incident such

as this may be rare, it’s not uncom-mon to hear everyday stories or com-plaints of poor treatment and services involving professionals – whether they are in the medical field or not.

Hospitals are criticized for relocating patients one too many times and em-ploying professionals who don’t truly care about the patients. Doctors get heat for the ease with which they prescribe medications, as is commonly seen in the issue of antidepressants being pre-scribed to patients who may not actu-ally suffer from depression. Mistakes made by accountants and lawyers can ruin individual or corporate finances and reputations. The idea that some pro-fessors may grade based on biases is an all too frequent grumbling.

As individuals, we have to trust peo-ple trained in certain fields to take ac-tion and make decisions for us. Medi-cal professionals ensure our bodies are healthy. Teachers aid in our educa-tions. Government officials are sup-posed to represent the population while ensuring that society functions prop-erly. If things go wrong in any of these areas, professionals are supposed to fix the problem – not make it worse.

As long as individuals take on careers for the right reasons – due to vocation, skills and talents and a genuine pas-sion for the field – everything should be fine. It’s when these positions are pur-sued for others reasons, such as status, financial success or a lack of interest in other areas, that problems arise.

By no means do I have the right to question anyone’s motivations in terms of career path, but the incident in Tul-sa serves as a reminder that account-ability in motivations does matter, re-gardless if one is just beginning a job or has been doing it for 36 years.

In a society in which we depend so much on others for goods and services, the ability to trust those around us is vi-tal. Whether it is an accountant, lawyer, journalist, professor, congressman or medical professional, accountability is something that cannot be taken lightly.

Sometimes merely expecting ac-countability from those around us is not enough, though. The individuals in Tulsa put their oral health in the hands of another, only to be let down. Instead, we must demand accountability – from those around us, but more importantly, from ourselves. No matter what the pro-fession, role or level of education, ev-eryone is trusted by someone, and that is not something to take for granted.

After all, I doubt that the college student version of Scott Harrington would ever have guessed that 36 years later, 7,000 people would anx-iously await test results for hepatitis and HIV at his expense.

Branding ignores quality of products

There are two storefronts in view when I look out my apartment window here in Paris: one awning reads “Alimentation Gé-nérale,” a general food store, and the other reads “Boucherie Musulmane,” a Muslim butcher shop. If I ever need a flank steak or a sack of lemons, I know where to go.

It’s quite simple, even though there’s no real store name in sight.

These generalized storefront titles were one of those shocks I felt leaving the U.S., these generalized storefront titles. They make me feel like a kid in the ‘40s, wear-ing pinstripe suspenders and running down to the corner store to buy his grandpa a pack of smokes. Maybe that’s just a vibe I get from the movies, but that corner store was just a store, chosen for its convenient location and maybe a nice conversation

or two with the guy behind the counter.Storefronts seem to carry that same vibe

here – pharmacies are just pharmacies and advertise themselves as such, with a big green cross above the door. Laundromats are laundromats, and if you need it, it’s right there. The whole thinking is different; when you need something, you go and get it. Easy.

Usually at home, though, I feel like there is always some chaos going on in my subcon-scious, a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other, never using their inside voices, trying to tell me what to buy and where to buy it. It’s the plague that is brand loyalty – the names we see in ads every day are the ones that make the sales. What am I really buying here, the Coke or the can it comes in?

Here’s something I don’t miss much about home: the billboards telling me what to do, or the false window signs at 16th and Wells making Papa John’s pizza look ed-ible. That’s not to say products can’t be radically different depending on the names behind them – Cheese Nips, for example, just aren’t the same. It’s just that the bom-bardment of brand images trying to sell me things gets to be a bit mind-numbing. Can’t we just decide for ourselves?

But there may be some hope on the horizon.

In a way only Forbes can, the magazine published an article showing a return to old ways: a study by Ernst & Young found brand loyalty to have fallen by 15 percent as the

deciding factor in purchases, down to just a factor of 1/4 in decision making. This is due to a wishy-washy economy, of course, but the report mentions a doubt that the old numbers will return any time soon.

That’s great, but companies will need a new strategy. I think this change in buyer loy-alty calls for a return of the ground-shaking set of 20th-century experiments, second only to the polio vaccine: the Pepsi Challenge.

The irony is, of course, that this was just another mechanism for advertising the Pepsi brand. But hey, the general idea makes a lot of sense. A blind taste test is designed to take away any preconceived notions about your preferences for a prod-uct, whether it’s going for the cheapest price between two nearly identical colas at the supermarket or remembering the Bud-weiser billboard you pass every day during a bumper-to-bumper morning commute.

It’s a stripped-down version of advertis-ing: going for the quality of something over the best combination of words and pictures in an ad. Back to basics. And in some far-off utopia where all ads are replaced with Pepsi Challenges, producers would strive for qual-ity rather than presentation. In such a distant world, aliens or no aliens, everybody wins.

Marquette’s traditions surrounding men’s basketball are quintessential to our un-dergraduate experience: the trek to the Bradley Center (no matter how cold), the confetti throw after the first field goal, singing the alma mater and watching away games at the Annex.

But several games each year fall on days when classes are not in session, whether over Christmas break, spring break or, like this past weekend, Easter weekend. Some of my best basketball-watching memories have been miles from Milwaukee.

When I am at home, the combination of basic cable and the strange disinterest of most people in the area in Marquette bas-ketball (I guess there are those two teams from big schools in Kansas and Missouri; someone mentioned Tigers and Jayhawks this weekend, though I don’t even think the latter is a real type of bird) make Marquette games difficult to watch at home.

‘Cusezonesout‘Elite’MUNo. 3 men knock off Miami in Sweet 16, stumble in round of 8

Marquette’s Sweet Sixteen win over Miami was its most complete game as a team all season. It defied the “start slow, finish strong” trend that had defined the Golden Ea-gles’ first two NCAA wins, as they dominated the Hurricanes from start to finish.

Saturday’s season-ending loss was a reversion to the team’s first two games. Against a highly talented Syracuse team, Marquette’s comeback magic ran out.

“We just were not making shots we usually make,” ju-nior guard Vander Blue said. “(We) couldn’t get stops; they were really good on the glass. I don’t think anything was dif-ferent from when we played them in Milwaukee.”

In the first game, Miami shot a dismal 20.7 percent from the floor as the Golden Eagles’ defense held the Hurricanes to 16 first-half points. Usu-ally an effective three-point shooting team, the ‘Canes hit just one of eleven attempted threes with Kenny Kadji and Rion Brown going a combined zero for seven.

Meanwhile, Marquette shot

44.4 percent and held a double-digit lead for a majority of the half’s final 10 minutes. Blue and Jamil Wilson had 15 points combined, with Wilson start-ing strong from beyond the arc with a pair of threes.

In the Elite Eight, it was the Orange defense that dominated a low-scoring first half. In the first 10 minutes alone, Mar-quette turned the ball over five times and made just two of eight attempted field goals.

Wilson missed all four of his first-half attempts from the field, and after Blue scored the first points of the game on a three-pointer, he fell silent, missing his next three field goals.

It took a nice spurt from Da-vante Gardner to cut the defi-cit to six points heading into halftime. Gardner scored seven points, recorded a block, as-sisted on a dunk by Chris Otule and grabbed three rebounds in the final 10 minutes of the half.

Marquette had rallied from halftime deficits of two points and eight points in Lexing-ton, Ky., so the situation cer-tainly wasn’t foreign. The Golden Eagles shot 41.4 per-cent in the second half to beat Davidson and 59.3 percent to knock off Butler.

The Orange defense clamped down, however, as Marquette shot just 18.7 percent from the field in the final 20 minutes.

Marquette had seen the 2-3 zone plenty of times during the regular season, but coach Buzz

Williams said the Orange zone stood without comparison.

“To compare Syracuse’s zone to someone else’s zone I think is unfair to Coach (Jim) Boeheim and disrespectful to their players, because every game is a different game,” Wil-liams said. “They have pros. I think they probably have guys on their team that after they win the national champion-ship may not play for Syracuse anymore. It is the zone, and it is the players in the zone.”

While Blue led the team with 10 points down the final stretch, he had little support. Wilson ended up one for nine from the field, and Gardner couldn’t continue his effective-ness, scoring just five points in the second half.

Marquette’s 39 total points tied a record low in Elite Eight history, as the Golden Eagles never settled in and gained any kind of consistency on offense.

After a magical run, Syra-cuse provided a harsh reality check for the Golden Eagles.

“In order to beat Syracuse you have to hit shots, get to the free-throw line and stop them in transition,” senior Ju-nior Cadougan said. “You’ve got to do a whole bunch of stuff to stop them. Obvious-ly today they were clicking real well. They did a great job from start to finish. We didn’t get to the free-throw line as much, we didn’t hit the shots we usually hit and they came out with the victory.”

Season of surprises well worth it

As I sat waiting for my 6:30 a.m. Sunday flight to take off from Wash-ington, D.C., the pilot’s voice came over the intercom with a message for his cabin of mostly returning Golden Eagles supporters.

“To all of the Marquette fans, there are 285 other teams out there that would’ve loved to get as far as you guys did. You had a great year.”

Even though I was operating on less than two hours of sleep and feeling like I had to vomit, I couldn’t help thinking how right the captain of Air Tran flight 273 was.

In November, when the Tribune published the “Golden Eagle” is-sue previewing the upcoming basketball season, our six sports writers predicted how the men’s team would do. All of us thought Marquette would make the NCAA Tournament, but not many of us held ambitions for this team be-yond that. I picked Marquette to ad-vance to the Sweet Sixteen, but not based on the team’s talent. I simply trusted Buzz Williams to take any sort of team that made the tourney into the second weekend.

In December, as I was boarding a flight to Calfornia, the team was on the verge of defeat at the hands of Wisconsin-Green Bay. I left my phone on after the stewardess asked me to turn it off, just so I could see confirmation of the horrific loss.

Even the Big East season, regu-lar season championship and all, proved daunting at times. Throw in the Big East Tournament loss to Notre Dame, and Marquette looked doomed for an early NCAA Tournament exit.

And for most of the Davidson game, it appeared that premonition would hold true. I sat in the jPad with my head in my hands, refus-ing to believe that Marquette would actually succumb to a No. 14 seed.

But then, whatever magic that helped this team continually defy expectation, from earning a share of the regular season title after get-ting picked seventh to grabbing a No. 3 seed when most experts had them generously as a No. 5, kicked in again. The worst three-point shooting team in the entire tourna-ment made three straight triples, and Vander Blue, Marquette’s emerging star, laid in the game-winning score.

That magic kicked in again last Saturday, as the Golden Eagles held off the best tournament program in recent memory and defeated Butler by the skin of their teeth. The magic continued as they obliterated a con-sensus top-five team in Miami.

Even though the magic ran out against the dreaded Syracuse 2-3 zone, the 2012-13 Marquette men’s basketball team not only exceeded expectations but rendered them irrel-evant. I would never have personally experienced the first five minutes of the Marquette-Syracuse game, the most intense, heart-pounding sports action I have witnessed live, without the unexpected success of this team.

Moments like that make us as fans and journalists realize just how many other teams wish they could have what we have.

First trip to D.C. unsuccessful for menLate rally falls short, Big East rival Hoyas prevail with 17-12 win

A late rally from the Mar-quette men’s lacrosse team failed Friday against Big East opponent Georgetown, and the Golden Eagles fell to the Hoyas 17-12 in their inaugural

By Andrew [email protected]

trip to Washington, D.C.The Hoyas took advantage

of Marquette’s slow start and jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead. But redshirt sophomore mid-fielder Ben Dvorak scored on a bounce shot for his first goal of the season and put the Gold-en Eagles on the board before the end the first quarter.

Marquette showed little im-provement in the second quarter, as its defense was unable to con-trol the Georgetown offense and freshman goalie J.J. Sagl was a sitting duck between the pipes.

Junior attackman Tyler Melnyk posted a hat trick in the third quarter alone, but Marquette’s rally came up short.

After the Hoyas went up 9-2, Marquette was forced to make a goalie switch, and freshman goalkeeper Matt Barone saw his first action of the season.

The Golden Eagles trailed 9-3 at the half.

Momentum rested with Georgetown, but the Golden Eagles broke loose in the third quarter. Marquette went on a 6-1 run on one goal from red-shirt freshman attackman Kyle Whitlow, two from freshman attackman Conor Gately and a hat trick from redshirt junior

attackman Tyler Melnyk to pull within one going into the fourth.

“We’re going to be tough, we’re going to be hard-nosed and we’re going to fight to the end of the whistle,” Joe Am-plo said about the halftime adjustment. “That’s what I told our guys, that they’re go-ing to have to drag you guys off the field. We’re not going down without a fight.”

The Hoyas would not have any of it, as they controlled the majority of possession time and scored four unanswered goals to start the fourth. Whit-low ended the run on a beauti-ful behind-the-back goal from a distance, and a three-minute unsportsmanlike conduct pen-alty on Georgetown gave Mar-quette, down 14-10 with 7:03 to go, a golden opportunity to come back.

The Golden Eagles only tallied one goal on the long man-up opportunity, and the Hoyas ran out the clock as they held off Marquette’s rally to take the game 17-12.

Possession played a deciding role in the game. The Hoyas dominated the faceoff-X, win-ning 23 of 32 draws and winning the groundball battle 45-33.

The loss drops the Golden Eagles to 2-4 on the season, but Amplo said he was very happy with his team’s performance.

“I thought it was a good col-lege lacrosse game,” Amplo said. “We played a very well coached team, a team that’s trying to prove themselves. I was proud of our guys for re-sponding, and I think you saw a youthful team out there. I think you saw a team that’s going to fight.”

Next up for the Golden Ea-gles is Notre Dame, which is ranked No. 4 in the Inside La-crosse polls and No. 5 in the coaches’ polls. The game will be played at a neutral location (Chicago) today at 4 p.m.

“It’s an unbelievable chal-lenge and unbelievable opportu-nity for our guys,” Amplo said of the Notre Dame matchup. “(The team has) a couple of days of rest, and then we’ll pre-pare for them on Sunday night and Monday and hopefully give the number one team in the country the best shot we can.”

Men defeat UTA, fall to SMU, women defeated by USF

The Marquette tennis teams had a full schedule this week-end, as both teams were in ac-tion away from the Helfaer Rec Center. The men’s team traveled to Dallas to take on Texas-Arlington and Southern Methodist, while the women’s team traveled to Tampa, Fla., to take on South Florida.

On Friday, the men’s team opened the weekend with a 5-2 win against UTA, snapping a four-match losing streak. The Golden Eagles got off to a hot start, winning the No. 1 and No. 3 doubles matches. Dan

By Jacob [email protected]

Mamalat and Vukasin Teofa-novic led the way in the No. 1 spot, winning the match 8-4, while No. 3 doubles team James Stark and Gleb Skylr took their match 8-6. The No. 2 team of Logon Collins and Cameron Tehrani were notched at 6 before the match was suspended.

In the singles matches, Ma-malat and Teofanovic both won their matches, giving Marquette wins in the No. 1 and No. 2 spots. Mamalat won convinc-ingly 6-2, 6-4, while Teofanovic had to battle back from a first set loss and went three sets, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6. Tehrani also picked up a win in the No. 4 spot, and David Packowitz rounded out the match with a win in the No. 6 spot. Mamalat was the only Marquette player not to go three sets in singles.

Saturday’s match against SMU went differently, with Mar-quette dropping the match 6-1.

Tennis teams struggle on busy, difficult road trips

Sophomore Vukasin Teofanovic (above) and junior Dan Mamalat won their doubles match in the win over UTA.


Marquette lost both the No. 1 and No. 3 doubles matches and was down 7-5 in the No. 2 slot, but the match was not completed. On the singles side, Teofanovic was the only player to win, winning the No. 2 match 6-3, 5-7, 10-2. With his three victories on the weekend, Teofanovic improved to 18-15 on the season in singles play and 10-8 in doubles.

On the women’s side, the team faced No. 53 USF on Saturday and lost 6-1, its sixth

loss in seven matches. The Golden Eagles lost the No. 1 and No. 3 doubles matches, did not finish the No. 2 match and were tied at 6 before the match was called. Marquette dropped every singles match in the No. 1 to No. 5 slots, but Laia Her-nandez Soler prevented the sweep in the No. 6 position. Hernandez Soler went three sets and won 6-3, 2-6, 7-5.

The men’s team (9-11) will finish off the season with four

straight home games, hoping to put together another win streak heading into the Big East Cham-pionship. The Golden Eagles will start the home stand fac-ing Cleveland State and Chi-cago State on Saturday. The women’s team (10-9) is facing Notre Dame at home today be-fore an 11-day break. After the time off, Marquette will go on a two-game road trip to Louis-ville and Cincinnati before the Big East Championship.

Final Four is set

No. 1 Louisville, No. 4 Michi-gan, No. 4 Syracuse and No. 9 Wichita State are all heading to the Final Four in Atlanta. Louisville will play Wichita State Saturday at 5:09 p.m., and Syracuse will battle Michigan at 7:49 p.m. Saturday.

Wichita State has a chance to be-come the lowest seed to ever win a national championship. No. 8 Vil-lanova capped its miraculous run in 1985 with an upset win over No. 1 Georgetown.

Shockers live up to their name

It’s safe to say that very few fans, if any, had Wichita State pushing all the way to the Final Four in their brackets. The No. 9 Shock-ers took advantage of a suddenly weak West region and advanced to the Final Four by beating No. 2 Ohio State 70-66 Saturday. This is the Shockers’ first trip to the Final Four since 1965.

The Shockers did not face No. 3 New Mexico, No. 4 Kansas State or No. 5 Wisconsin, who all lost in the opening round. Wichita State did, however, take care of business against No. 1 Gonzaga to advance to the Sweet Sixteen.

Despite shooting just 37 per-cent from the floor in its win over the Buckeyes on Saturday, Wichita State held Ohio State to 31 percent shooting. The Shock-ers held a 60-45 lead with 6:50 to go, but the Buckeyes quickly cut the deficit to 62-59 with 2:49 left. Wichita State maintained compo-sure despite missing free throws down the stretch that would have put the game out of reach.

Florida Gulf Coast’s magical run comes to an end

The No. 15 Eagles out of the At-lantic Sun were one of the tourna-ment’s pleasant surprises. Florida Gulf Coast made it all the way to the Sweet 16 before falling to No. 3 Florida, and its success has been the object of much national attention. Coach Andy Enfield is

After Kevin Ware’s gruesome injury Sunday against Duke, the Cardinals remained calm and pushed ahead to stifle the Blue Devils. How much of an impact

will Ware’s absence have? Will the emotional impact of Ware’s injury propel Louisville over the hot Shockers, or will it take its toll on the Cards? Wichita

State has already taken down a No. 1 seed and a No. 2 seed, and it will be interesting to see if its luck will finally run out.

After going scoreless in the first half of Friday’s wild overtime win over Kansas, Burke finished with 23 points. He also poured in 15 on Sun-day in the Wolverines’ win over Florida to help his team move on to the Final Four. The

attracting high-profile schools with coaching vacancies, and the Eagles and an FGCU student’s father are battling to trademark the phrase “Dunk City.” The Eagles go back to Fort Myers with high hopes and anticipation for next season.

Ware suffers grisly injury

Louisville’s Kevin Ware suf-fered a devastating leg injury in Sunday’s win over Duke. With 6:33 left in the first half, Ware ran toward a Duke player to defend his shot. Ware jumped and landed awkwardly on his right leg. Ware’s leg snapped just below the knee, resulting in his tibia protruding about six inches out of his leg.

The injury occurred in front of the Louisville bench, and players and fans immediately grimaced at the sight of it. Play was stopped for nine minutes as Ware was taken off the court on a stretcher.

In his postgame comments, coach Rick Pitino said Ware will likely miss a full year of playing but is expected to make a full recovery.

Runners, throwers compete in Calif., Ohio meetsSenior Hackett runs against best of best at Stanford Invitational

This weekend, Marquette run-ners raced San Francisco, Palo Alto and Cincinnati chasing Big East and NCAA Regional quali-fying marks as the outdoor sea-son gets underway.

Oliver Nikoloff Invitational

This meet featured the most members of the team making their season debuts. Two weeks ago, it was the field events that saw most of the action at the USF Bulls invitational in Tampa, Fla.

Freshman Cody Haberkorn is coming off an indoor track sea-son in which he only raced three times. He was one of the team’s top five runners consistently throughout the cross-country season, which makes it no sur-prise to see him excel in his first 10,000-meter run on the track. He was Marquette’s top fin-isher in sixth (31:32.15), senior A.J. Gedwill crossed the finish

line shortly after in ninth. Ged-will’s time of 31:52.84 is more than a minute better than his personal best of 33:04.24 run at the same meet in 2012.

Marquette took the top three places in the women’s 10,000-meter run, as sophomore Elisia Meyle led the charge with a personal best of 36:47.77 in her longest race since last May. Senior Christina Sliepka and junior Hannah Frett finished in second and third, respectively.

First-year law student Ty-ler Leverington finished sixth for Marquette in 3:55.58 in the 1,500-meter run. He start-ed out in 2:10 through 800 meters, which came back to hurt him down the stretch.

Sophomore William Koeck fell short of the Marquette re-cord in the hammer throw, but it was not as close as his sea-son debut, in which he fell short of the record by a centime-ter. He threw 55.25 meters to finish third overall Saturday.

Sophomore Samantha Ken-nedy was able to move up to sixth on the Golden Eagles’ all-time list, as her throw of 115 feet and 8 inches in the javelin got her the victory over five other competitors.

Junior Michael Saindon put down a Big East qualify-

ing mark in the high jump with his leap of 2.03 meters.

San Francisco State Distance Carnival

Seniors Patrick Maag and Connor Callahan made their sea-son debuts on the West Coast. The race started out well for the two Golden Eagles, but they finished 19th and 20th, respec-tively, in their heat of 25 run-ners. Maag’s time of 14:37.32 is a Big East qualifying mark. Callahan’s 14:42.62 is just 2.62 seconds off from qualifying.

Stanford Invitational

Senior Jack Hackett was one of 44 runners in the second sec-tion of the men’s 10,000-meter run. As rain started to fall at Cobb Track and Angell Field, he looked perfect through the 5,000-meter mark as Oregon’s Mac Fleet was pacing the race with 400-meter laps in the low-70 second range. As the pack started to string out 20 minutes into the race, Hackett fell be-hind. It was his first collegiate race since cross-country season and his first time on the track since May. He is in top physical form but could use a race or two to get used to the track again.

Sophomore Samantha Kennedy earned a victory in the javelin and moved to sixth all-time at Marquette with a throw of 115 feet, 8 inches.
