Mayor names new alderman By Paige Leskin

daily senior staffer @paigeleskin

Mayor Elizabeth Tisdahl named the new 9th Ward alderman Friday. Brian Miller, chief of staff of Cook County’s 13th district commissioner, will fill the position, the mayor announced on Twitter. “Brian is a dedicated member of the Evanston community, and will be an enthusiastic and responsive alderman for Ninth Ward residents,” Tisdahl said in a news release. The alderman spot was made available after Coleen Burrus left the position in April for a job at Princeton University as director of corporate and foundation relations. Burrus also stepped down from her post as senior director of corporate engagement at Northwestern. Miller was one of five people who applied to be the next alderman. The city hosted a public candidate forum in April so residents could hear from the five applicants about their positions on a variety of issues and proposed solutions for

city concerns. “Good government is good infrastructure,” Miller said at the forum. “The day-to-day face of government is our streets, our parks, our police cars, our fire trucks … We have an aging infrastructure that we need to address.” Ald. Jane Grover (7th) said she was impressed by the “high caliber” of candidates who were willing to serve. With the appointment of Miller, Grover said she was ready for City Council to work back at “full force.” Council will vote to confirm Miller at a special council meeting Monday, city manager Wally Bobkiewicz told The Daily. Miller is a lifetime 9th Ward resident. Apart from his job in the commissioner’s office, he serves as president of the Democratic Party of Evanston and has previous legal experience working with the state’s attorney general and the Chicago law department. He also has been involved with non-profit organizations, including » See Alderman, page 6

Restaurants to return in 2016 By paige leskin

daily senior staffer @paigeleskin

Evanston resident Daniel Kelch’s businesses have not had the best luck in the city. First, his Mexican restaurant Taco Diablo was destroyed by an early morning fire in December 2013 that also burned through two other businesses. Three months later, he closed his Asian restaurant Lulu’s, which opened 23 years ago. Although it was profitable, the restaurant was running on “cruise control,” Kelch said in a post on Lulu’s site. But both restaurants will be back in operation by next year. Construction will start this week at 1026 Davis St. — two doors down from Cozy Noodles and Rice — and should be finished by January 2016, Kelch said. “Today is a bright day,” Kelch told a crowd at the new site Friday. “It’s really easy to work in this community. That kind of environment, it’s kind of extraordinary actually.” Along with contractors, architects and co-owner Marty Cless, Kelch broke ground Friday at the storefront’s plot, now empty after the building that once housed Tom Thumb Hobby & Crafts was torn down in January. Kelch enthusiastically chatted and drank with community members, filling them in on the finalized design for the restaurants and the story of how the idea came about. Kelch said he knew almost immediately after the fire that he

wanted to bring back Taco Diablo, which had a short life of about 18 months. In January 2014 — a month after Taco Diablo burned down — Cless, a regular customer, contacted Kelch about reopening the restaurant. The two discussed their visions for the new place, Cless said, resulting in a revitalized concept for the new storefront, which sits across the street from Taco Diablo’s original location. Those working on the new building, Kelch said, are all local and familiar with the city: Myefski Architects is based down the street, the contractor LG Construction + Development just worked on Smylie Brothers Brewing Company and the interior designer has a company in Evanston. The new two-story building will include Lulu’s and Taco Diablo under the same roof and with a shared kitchen, but the two will have separate menus and seating. A year-round bar and lounge with a “retro” feel called Five & Dime will be located on the top floor, Kelch said, and will have an outdoor deck and a beer garden for when the weather is nice. “There will be food up there, but it’s going to have a flavor of more of a bar,” Kelch told The Daily in September. “It’ll be kind of a place where we hope people will come and just hang out, have a drink, spend an afternoon. We think that will help drive more revenue to help keep us a viable entity.” The rest of the space next to the restaurant will be available for one or two retail stores, Kelch said.

Beyond the first floor, the owners plan to use the roof to expand their visions. Kelch said they want to build a shed — used to store outdoor furniture in the winter and house a recreation room for ping pong and other games in the summer — and an “urban garden,” where organic vegetables would be grown and sold to local businesses. The new versions of the restaurants will include new menus, although many of the old dishes residents liked will stay, Kelch said. Mayor Elizabeth Tisdahl joked that the owners needed to keep the Taco Diablo menu as it was in 2013, but she also stressed the significance of having both restaurants back in Evanston. “We didn’t need a fire to tell us how important Lulu’s and Taco Diablo are to the city,” Tisdahl said. “We’re a big city … but we’re also a small town and community.” Kelch said the city has been supportive in helping him bring back his restaurants and in working with him to get permits approved. Downtown Evanston, a nonprofit that aims to improve the city’s economy, has also helped the owners by providing support and market development to spread the word about the restaurants, executive director Annie Coakley said. The owners have had their floor plans approved by the city, but contractors are still meeting with the city’s project manager to finalize the building design, Cless said. pl@u.northwestern.edu

Siemian, Campbell selected in 2015 NFL Draft

Two Northwestern football players had their name called Saturday in the 2015 NFL Draft, and five more were signed as undrafted free agents immediately afterward. Safety Ibraheim Campbell was the first selected from NU, with 16th pick in the fourth round (115th overall) by the Cleveland Browns. The only other NU player chosen was quarterback Trevor Siemian, who went to the Denver Broncos with the 33rd pick of the seventh round

(250th overall). Siemian’s selection confirmed pre-draft reports that the Broncos were interested in the signal caller. Soon after the draft ended, five more Wildcats inked undrafted free agent contracts. Center Brandon Vitabile joined Indianapolis, linebacker Jimmy Hall went to Oakland, linebacker Chi Chi Ariguzo signed with San Diego, receiver Tony Jones signed with Washington and receiver Kyle Prater joined Campbell on the Browns.

Wong Fu filmmakers screen new movie By Matthew CHOI

the daily northwestern @matthewchoi2018

YouTube celebrity and filmmaker group Wong Fu Productions visited Northwestern on Saturday for an early screening of its first feature-length movie, “Everything Before Us,” and a Q&A session with about 300 students. Wong Fu, which comprises Wesley Chan, Philip Wang and Ted Fu, is known for its YouTube videos and short films often starring AsianAmerican actors, including its members. Wong Fu has more than 2.4 million subscribers on YouTube and began making short films more than 10 years ago. “Everything Before Us” centers on a fictitious system of scoring individuals by an “emotional integrity score,” which is determined by individuals’ dating histories. The concept is intentionally analogous to standardized test and credit scores, Wang said. The movie follows the narratives of two couples as they struggle to maintain relationships, navigating issues of long distance dating, work pressure and school, to maintain a high score. The emotional integrity scores in the movie embody how often mistakes are negatively viewed, particularly among young people, Wang said. “Don’t feel pressured to have it all figured out right after graduating,” Wang said. “The 20s are a long time. A lot changes, believe it or not.” NU was one of four schools at which Wong Fu released a pre-screening of its movie. The movie will be released next month. The event, hosted by the Chinese Students Association and the Asian Pacific American Coalition, featured Chan, Wang, writer Chris Dinh, producer Christine Chen and actress Victoria Park (Communication ‘10). The movie followed the production company’s styles of humor and cinematography, and also featured appearances from other prominent YouTubers, to the cheers of audience members. “It’s about relationships. It’s about love. There

are some laughs, and there’s a twist,” Wang said. “Sounds very Wong Fu.” During the Q&A, questions focused on the actors’ and writers’ careers, representation of Asian-Americans in media and the themes that inspired the movie. When asked about the largely Asian-American cast, Chan and Wang said the movie was not meant to be a commentary on Asian-American issues. “These (themes) are universal,” Chan said. “If you’re watching ‘Avengers,’ and you’re following non-Asian (actors), no one questions that.” The choice to cast lead Asian-American actors was intentional, Chan and Wang said, as there are few opportunities for Asian-American actors in media, particular in lead roles. Wang recounted a story of when Wong Fu tried to produce a movie through mainstream media and producers told them a large cast of Asians was “bad business” for attracting audiences. “This is why it’s really important to share this

movie,” Wang said. “To show those companies: No, there is an audience.” The event began with an introduction by CSA internal president Jonathan Lo, a Weinberg junior, and APAC internal president Jeanne Hou, a SESP junior. Wong Fu has visited NU in the past to discuss its production company. “It’s great to be back, and we cannot say thank you enough to everyone here,” Chan told The Daily. Organizers said they were pleased with the event. “It was amazing,” said CSA’s programming chair Kimberly Chow, a Weinberg freshman. “We spent so long organizing and preparing for the event. Now that it comes to fruition, it’s larger than life.” Donations to the American Red Cross were also collected during the event for Nepal disaster relief. matthewchoi2018@u.northwestern.edu

ETHS gains recognition for increasing access to advanced courses

Evanston Township High School has been recognized nationally for its efforts to increase student access to advanced classes regardless of race or socioeconomic status. The school has been featured in recent media coverage by The Washington Post, WTTW’s Chicago Tonight television program and Education Week for its strategies to bolster participation in honors-level and Advanced Placement courses. Researchers also visited ETHS last month in an event coordinated by the American Educational Research Association to study the school’s strategy for increasing participation in honors classes, the school announced. Visitors focused on the Restructured Freshman Year Initiative — also called the the “detracking initiative” — in which all first-year students enroll in the same level science and humanities courses.

A Chicago man was arrested in connection with unlawful use of a weapon early Wednesday morning, police said. Dugan said an officer patrolling the area heard a vehicle alarm sounding in the 600 block of Oakton Street and saw two individuals walking away from the vehicle. One of the men, 18, had a set of brass knuckles and was charged with misdemeanor unlawful use of weapon, police said. Loose change and car chargers were found in his backpack, but police were unable to link those items to any vehicle burglaries in the area, Dugan said. The man is scheduled to appear in court May 19. — Julian Gerez

The initiative places all students in courses with “rigorous instruction” regardless of their test scores, giving them the opportunity to earn honors credit each semester, according to the school’s policy. Debra Viadero from Education Week reported April 27 that, according to preliminary research on the initiative, there was an increase in students who would have been placed in regular courses earning honors credit, and the number of sophomore students who signed up for AP courses also increased. Changes in the amount and diversity of student participation in ETHS’ AP program have also been the focus of much media attention. The district announced that the number of students taking AP exams increased by 30 percent between 2011 and 2014. “Our efforts to restructure ETHS so more students are taking more rigorous courses is resulting in notable increases in the numbers of students who are prepared to achieve in honors and Advanced Placement courses,” School District 202 Superintendent Eric Witherspoon said in a news release. — Julia Jacobs

Evanston police warn of donation scam around city, on NU campus

At least one young person has been going around Evanston and Northwestern’s Evanston campus asking for money in a door-to-door donation scam, Evanston police said Friday. Evanston Police Department has received several reports of a young person going to homes in the city claiming to be collecting money for a memorial basketball tournament, officials said in a news release. The tournament is supposedly being held at the Robert Crown Center in remembrance of an Evanston Township High School student who was shot and killed. However, police said there is no such tournament. The young person collecting the money also has a laminated photograph of the student, police said. — Tori Latham

Schapiro, trustees dedicate Segal Visitors Center

University President Morton Schapiro said the new Segal Visitors Center is a “dream come true” during the building’s formal dedication last week. The center was built with the help of a $10 million gift from Gordon and Carole Segal, Northwestern graduates who co-founded Crate & Barrel, a home furnishings retail chain. Schapiro and the Segals were joined by Board of Trustees’ chairman Bill Osborn and by Ralph Johnson, global design director of the architecture firm that designed the building, to cut a purple ceremonial ribbon to inaugurate the center. Almost 150 people attended the event, according to a news release. The center, which features an auditorium with a view of Lake Michigan and a 170,000square-foot visitors facility, hosts prospective students and their families and provides meeting rooms and offices for admissions staff. “All of this is leading us to developing a much more vital campus. It’s a new Northwestern,” Gordon Segal said in his remarks at the

NU discovery may help early detection of cancer risk

A finding from Northwestern Medicine might help doctors predict cancer development several years before diagnosis. In a collaboration with Harvard University, Feinberg School of Medicine researchers examined the length of blood telomeres, located on DNA strands, to test for indications of cancer risk in a patient’s blood. Feinberg Prof. Lifang Hou, the study’s lead author, said the discovery could help doctors test for many different cancers. “Understanding this pattern of telomere growth may mean it can be a predictive biomarker for cancer,” Hou said in a news release. “Because we saw a strong relationship in the pattern across a wide variety of cancers, with

dedication, according to the release. “When people come here … instead of being enclosed by concrete and stone, they are going to be enclosed by glass — so they can look out at the lake and look out at the gardens and look out at the park-like scenery of this University.” During the event, Schapiro discussed other buildings being constructed on the campus’ lakefront. “All you have to do is walk around the campus and in building after building, we see magnificent improvement,” Schapiro said, according to the release. He also thanked the Segals for their contributions to the University. Gordon Segal, who earned a bachelor’s degree in business, and Carole Segal, who earned a degree in English, met at NU and founded Crate & Barrel in 1962. They both graduated in 1960. “I am so proud to be associated with the two of you, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart, not just for the Visitors Center,” Schapiro said, according to the release. “But I’m saluting you for 50 other buildings that you have done — and not just your financial generosity, but the incredible time you have given back to your alma mater. We were incredibly lucky when the Segals decided to come to Northwestern University.” — Mariana Alfaro

the right testing these procedures could be used to eventually diagnose a wide variety of cancers.” The study looked at telomere length multiple times before diagnosis. Both cancer and its treatment can shorten telomere length, so it’s often hard for doctors to tell which shortened telomeres. Hou said the researchers’ decision to look at telomere length more than once allowed them to see more concrete findings, something previous studies haven’t always done. “This likely explains why the previous studies have been so inconsistent,” Hou said. “We saw the inflection point at which rapid telomere shortening stabilizes. We found cancer has hijacked the telomere shortening in order to flourish in the body.” The study was published in EBioMedicine. — Shane McKeon

National News Female service members say they face retribution for reporting sexual assaults WASHINGTON — Two-thirds of women in the military who reported they’d been sexually assaulted endure professional retaliation or other social ostracism, Pentagon’ leaders said Friday. In releasing an annual study required by Congress on sexual harassment and assault within the ranks, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said combating the problem had proven difficult. “We’re not making enough progress in countering retaliation,” Carter said at a Pentagon briefing. “Too many service members feel that when they report or try to stop these crimes, they’re being ostracized or retaliated against in some way.” Carter said he was issuing a directive for his top military and civilian advisers to devise a strategy for protecting service members who report unwanted sexual contact. About 22 percent of female service members and 7 percent of male service members experienced some form of sexual harassment last year, ranging from crude jokes to assaults, according to the report. “That’s abhorrent, and it has to stop,” Carter said. Carter declined to answer reporters’ questions, but his deputies were at pains to explain what, on

Obama appoints NU trustee to Kennedy Center board

A Northwestern trustee was appointed by President Barack Obama to the Board of Trustees of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Obama announced his intent to appoint W. the surface at least, appeared to be a contradiction in the study’s central findings: While the number of reported sexual assaults increased in 2014 for the fourth straight year, to 6,131, a survey of troops done in an effort to capture information on unreported sexual assaults suggested that assaults overall had declined. “We continue to see an unprecedented increase in the reporting of sexual assault from victims, which suggests growing confidence in the department’s response system, and estimates indicate overall occurrences of the crime have decreased since 2012,” said Brad Carson, acting defense undersecretary for personnel and readiness. Pentagon officials said that extrapolations from the survey of 560,000 active duty and reserve service members set the total number of sexual assaults at 20,300 in 2014. The Pentagon made no such extrapolation last year, but the number of sexual assaults actually reported in 2013 was 5,518. Forty percent of the women who reported they’d been sexually assaulted in 2014 said they’d also suffered professional retaliation because they’d reported the crime, according to a summary of the report. It did not break down the form of retaliation. Another 26 percent of women said they felt they had been ostracized by their fellow soldiers because they had reported the crime, the summary said.

James McNerney Jr. to the Washington, D.C.based arts center last week. “These fine public servants bring a depth of experience and tremendous dedication to their important roles,” Obama said in a news release. “I look forward to working with them.” McNerney is the CEO of The Boeing Company and previously worked at the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, General Electric, Procter & Gamble and McKinsey & Company, Inc.

McNerney has been chairman of the President’s Export Council since 2010. He is also a member of the board at Northwestern Memorial Healthcare and The Field Museum in Chicago. He received his undergraduate degree from Yale University and his M.B.A. from Harvard University.

Baltimore charges 6 officers in man’s death

Mosby told them, “No one is above the law.” But she also reassured police officers that the charges “are not an indictment of the entire force.” The charges capped a volatile 19-day stretch of violence and recriminations that focused attention on long-standing allegations of police brutality against blacks in Baltimore, but also in other American cities after the deaths of several unarmed black men at the hands of white police officers. Protesters in Baltimore also accused local officials of indifference to police misconduct and festering poverty and neglect in a city with a black mayor, a black police chief and a majority-black City Council and police force. Mosby also is black. The protests reverberated far beyond Baltimore, drawing President Barack Obama and his newly appointed attorney general, Loretta Lynch, into a national debate over police treatment of black citizens, especially in poverty-stricken neighborhoods, such as West Baltimore, where Gray was raised and arrested. The Department of Justice is investigating the case for any civil rights violations. Some Baltimore lawyers expressed surprise at the speed with which Mosby brought charges, but were divided in their assessment of the strength of her case. “It’s pretty disconcerting what she is doing, bringing charges after having the case just one day,” said former federal prosecutor Steven H. Levin of Baltimore.

BALTIMORE — In a remarkably swift response to community demands for action, Baltimore’s prosecutor announced criminal charges Friday against six city police officers who arrested and transported Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man who died after being severely injured in police custody. Declaring Gray’s death a homicide, Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby told a crowd of cheering demonstrators that arrest warrants had been issued for five male officers and one female officer. Three of the officers are white, three of them black. The charges came just a day after Mosby received a police investigative report and just hours after a medical examiner classified Gray’s April 19 death as a homicide. “I heard your call for no justice, no peace,” Mosby, elected five months ago, told protesters gathered at the marble steps of Baltimore’s War Memorial building. Charges ranged from “depraved heart” murder — equivalent to second-degree murder — to involuntary manslaughter, assault and misconduct in office. All six officers, who had been suspended with pay, surrendered later Friday. “Your peace is sincerely needed as I work to bring justice for Freddie Gray,” said Mosby, 35, a former assistant state’s attorney and the daughter and granddaughter of police officers. “To those that are angry or hurt or have their own experience of injustice, I urge you to channel your energy peacefully.” As demonstrators erupted in shouts of approval,

NU falls to Penn State in Big Ten Tournament No. 3 Northwestern

By AVA WALLACE

daily senior staffer @AvaRWallace

No. 2 Penn State

Northwestern won’t play in the inaugural Big Ten Championship, but it wasn’t for lack of effort. The No. 3 seed Wildcats (12-6, 3-3) played one of their most ferocious outings of the season Friday in the Big Ten Championship semifinal match against No. 2 Penn State (13-4, 5-1), only to fall to the Nittany Lions for the second time in two weeks, this time 13-10. The two teams took turns scoring in 3- or 4-goal chunks at the beginning of the game. By the time they settled into a back-and-forth pattern, Penn State was up 7-4 with 10 minutes left in the half. The Cats were playing catch-up from then on, but not smartly enough. Like

the 14-10 loss NU suffered against Penn State on April 19, the Cats’ stats and the final score tell two different stories. NU was winning in the circle — 16 draw controls to Penn State’s nine — and shot almost as much as the Nittany Lions, but nine costly turnovers ruined hard-fought possessions throughout the game. Coach Kelly Amonte Hiller’s squad was working too hard for not enough payoff. Before sophomore midfielder Sheila Nesselbush scored her consolation goal with under two minutes left, Penn State’s last goal of the game was a

free-position goal from senior Tatum Coffey. It was the result of a nearly twominute possession by the Nittany Lions that had the Cats running ragged playing defense two players down. The remainder of the game featured long midfield runs from the likes of senior midfielders Jess Carroll and Haydyn Anigian, as well as frantic shots from senior attack Kara Mupo. Mupo and junior midfielder Kaleigh Craig did the most damage in Penn State’s defensive zone. The senior kept the ball moving and ran the offense in typical bullish style, and Craig struck like a heat-seeking missile, weaving, dodging and switching hands before zinging each of her 4 goals past Penn State keeper Emi Smith. Craig ended the weekend as NU’s leading scorer of the tournament, with 7 goals.

Mupo added 3 tallies for the second time in as many days, but it wasn’t enough to offset turnovers or the trio of hat tricks from Penn State, courtesy of some of the most dangerous shooters in the game: Coffey, junior Madison Cyr and sophomore Steph Lazo. Team leading scorer, freshman Selena Lasota, had trouble breaking away from her face guard and, compared to the rest of the season, barely saw the ball in her stick. She contributed 1 goal. Senior goalkeepers Bridget Bianco and Paige Jones split time in goal, with Jones notching four saves and Bianco making just one in her first 25 minutes between the pipes. Smith saved seven attempts for Penn State. NU, a favorite at the beginning of the season to be a conference championship contender, now ends its Big Ten

play sullied by three brutal conference losses. Not only did the Cats not avenge their earlier Lakeside Field loss to the Nittany Lions, but they won’t get the chance to replay Maryland, who dealt NU a brutal first loss of the conference season, 16-5. NU will have a chance to redeem itself in the NCAA Tournament. The Cats earned the No. 8 seed and will host Louisville on Friday in Evanston. Lakeside Field will also serve as the host site for the game between Notre Dame and Ohio State. The victor of each game will advance to face each other in the second round, also taking place in Evanston. NU has already faced and beaten each of the three teams this season. avawallace2015@u.northwestern.edu

Shorthanded Wildcats lose 2 of 3 to Cornhuskers By TIM BALK and SAMMY ESPARZA the daily northwestern Nebraska

4 0 11 Northwestern

2 5 0 Northwestern returned to Big Ten play this weekend with a three-game series against Nebraska, dropping two out of three to the Cornhuskers. NU was hampered by the absence of senior star Kyle Ruchim, who is dealing with a strained oblique. Coach Paul Stevens said he didn’t want to take any risks with Ruchim’s long-term health and elected to keep him on the bench for the series. The Wildcats (15-31, 5-13 Big Ten) lost the series opener with the Cornhuskers (33-17, 8-10) 4-2 Friday in a contest featuring strong performances by both starting pitchers. NU senior Brandon Magallones pitched eight complete innings with eight strikeouts, allowing 3 runs. Nebraska senior Chance Sinclair tossed seven innings with no earned runs. “He had a solid outing,” head coach Paul Stevens said of Magallones. “But there are still some things in that outing that I think if you ask him, he will tell you there were a couple of things he did that he would love to take back.” One such instance came in the

top of the fifth. Nebraska senior right fielder Austin Darby smacked a single on a 2-2 count to right with the bases loaded to give Nebraska a 3-2 lead. “I threw a curveball there, and I was just a little up with it,” Magallones said. “I wanted to get it down in the zone, and I was probably about four inches up, and he hit it pretty good.” Darby’s hit proved to be the gamewinner, as the Huskers added an insurance run in the ninth. The weather was nearly perfect on Saturday, and NU put forth a nearly perfect performance, rolling to a 5-0 bounce-back victory. Junior Matt Portland pitched a complete game shutout, striking out eight. “Portland threw the best game of his life, so we’re really thrilled about that,” Stevens said. “(He’s) just the kid who’s coming into his own, and you’re going to see him around the game for a long, long time not only at this level but at the next level.” Senior catcher Scott Heelan and sophomore left fielder Joe Hoscheit led the way for the Cats offensively. Each posted a pair of hits and an RBI. “It’s easy to hit in this lineup when there’s so many guys who always put up great at-bats,” Heelan said. “We just feed off each other well as a lineup and it was my turn to come through.” On Sunday, the Cats celebrated Paul Stevens Day in honor of their coach, who announced earlier this season he will retire after 31 years with the team.

But the celebrating stopped after the pre-game ceremony, as Nebraska rolled past the Cats. Junior Reed Mason got the start, but lasted only three innings, giving up 5 earned runs. While the Cats’ offense sputtered, Nebraska kept building on their lead, scoring in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings of an 11-0 victory.

One bright spot for the Cats was Heelan, who was again productive. He finished the day with a pair of hits. Stevens felt the pre-game ceremony had something to do with the poor performance. “There was too much hoopla in the beginning,” Stevens said. “I’m very grateful, and … very humbled,

but at the end of the day we needed to go to battle. I told them I take the blame for what happened today, and I know that they’ll be back going to war on Tuesday, Wednesday and next weekend at Michigan. I can’t wait to get back at it with them.” timothybalk2018@u.northwestern.edu samuelesparza2017@u.northwestern.edu

Wildcats win series to secure fourth place in Big Ten By MELISSA HANIFF

the daily northwestern @melissahaniff Northwestern

1 11 6 Iowa

0 6

Northwestern closed out its dominant regular season with two wins and a close loss to Iowa in Iowa City this weekend. The two wins bring the Wildcats (27-20, 14-8 Big Ten) to fourth place in

the Big Ten standings. Even with Sunday’s loss, NU secured a first-round bye in the Big Ten Tournament after Illinois fell to Nebraska in its Sunday matchup. Although the Cats were able to pull out two solid wins, the Hawkeyes (17-39, 8-15) played spoiler in Sunday’s matchup, scoring fast and holding on to their early lead. Game one was dominated by pitching from both sides. Junior pitcher Kristen Wood, who had eight strikeouts, and Hawkeyes pitcher Shayla Starkenburg kept the opposing offenses at bay, each allowing five hits or less through the first matchup. In the fourth inning, senior first baseman Julia Kuhn hit a home run to left center field, giving the Cats a 1-0 win. Strong defensive plays from junior

shortstop Andrea Filler and senior third baseman Anna Edwards kept the Hawkeyes from rallying while Wood battled Iowa’s batters on the mound. Filler noted that the team worked well together, a sentiment echoed by Kuhn. “We did a really good job backing up our pitchers,” Filler said. “They weren’t the most clean games but we definitely picked each other up when we were out there.” Saturday and Sunday’s games were dominated by offensive play, with the Cats scoring a combined 17 runs throughout the two. The Saturday game began with three straight singles from freshman centerfielder Sabrina Rabin, senior right fielder Andrea DiPrima and Filler, loading the bases for an RBI after a Sammy Nettling

groundout. Kuhn followed with a 2-run double, opening the floodgates for the Cats. Kuhn, who had a career weekend with six hits and five RBI, remained focused in the batter’s box throughout the series. “I just really wanted to make the pitchers throw more pitches,” Kuhn said. “They were kind of all over the zone and it was all about making them come to me and being patient.” Although the Hawkeyes began to rally in the fourth, NU held off Iowa’s batters with quick, sharp defensive play by Filler and strong pitching from senior Olivia Duehr. The game ended 11-6 in favor of the Cats. NU came from behind in the last matchup, scrapping for 4 runs in the fifth

and sixth innings in an effort to catch up with the Hawkeyes. The rally wasn’t enough, as Iowa came out on top by a score of 8-6. Even with the loss, Filler and Kuhn remain hopeful the Cats can use momentum from the series looking ahead to the Big Ten Tournament. “We want to continue to play as a team and play one pitch at a time as a team,” Filler said. “We always bring our fight to every single game, no matter if we’re up or down.” The Cats begin Big Ten Tournament play on Friday in Columbus, Ohio, where they will face the winner of Thursday’s opening round game between No. 5 seed Illinois and No. 12 Purdue. melissahaniff2016@u.northwestern.edu
