DREAM IT,

BE IT.'

Members of the Ball State soccer team comfort each other after losing to Northern Illinois 1-1 (4-3) Sunday at the Briner Sports Complex.

Cardinals eliminated in 1st round Ball State knocked out of MAC Tournament after shootout Jacob Lee Soccer Reporter Freshman defender Yela Zisweiler stepped up to the ball with Ball State soccer trailing Northern Illinois 4-3 in penalty kicks. Overtime ended with a 1-1 tie, forcing the shootout. Zisweiler needed to score to keep the game going. She ran up to the ball, launching it to the lower right corner of the goal, but Huskies goalkeeper MacKenzie Lee was ready for it. She dove to her left to block the kick. The Mid-American Conference regular season champions were eliminated in the first round — again. “I think the team will really mature from this,” head coach Craig Roberts said. “Sometimes you have to learn from experience and we will take this experience and move forward. We know that we have to take the opportunities in a game, and convert those in a game like this.” The first 90 minutes ended in a 1-1 tie. Ball State freshman forward Sam Kambol scored in the 37th minute, creating her own chance after stealing the ball deep in Northern Illinois territory. The Huskies’ lone goal in regulation was scored by sophomore forward Taylor Sarver in the 57th minute of play. See SOCCER, page 5

Cult classic “Rocky Horror Picture Show” creates place for Ball State cast members to be themselves Kaitlin Lange Enterprise Reporter

O

livia Germann felt out of place as a high schooler in Downer’s Grove, Illinois — a village near Chicago. She realized she was pansexual (meaning she is attracted to any sex or gender), and most of her friends were straight. But if there was one place she fit in, it was at her hometown’s “Rocky Horror Picture Show” Shadow Cast show. It was a place where people could be who they wanted, the English literature major thought, just like the "Rocky Horror" lead character Dr. Frank N. Furter, a transvestite mad scientist whose goal is to create the perfect man. See 'ROCKY HORROR,' page 3

CHIRP: X FACTORS ON THE FIELD

Our football reporter breaks down the key matchups in this week's home game against Western Michigan.

Ball State has once again dropped in the rankings for the Trojan Sexual Health report card, but heath educator Elizabeth Peeler isn’t too concerned about that. Because sexual health has become such a priority for universities, she believes most schools are just improving their programs faster than Ball State is, mainly because they have a full-time staff devoted to just that.

Ball State was ranked 48th this year out of 140 universities, down five spots from 2015. In the past six years, Ball State’s ranking has been declining. Just five years ago in 2011, the university was 16th in the nation. But Peeler, whose background is in sexual health education, has been working to make sure all students know about the resources Ball State offers. She’s been working with peer health educators to figure out how students get their information. “My goal is to get us to a better ranking,” Peeler said. “I’m a sexual health educator by training, so this is my passion.”
