Loved ones remember the life of IU junior Nate Stratton

By Helen Rummel

hrummel@iu.edu | @helenrummel

Nate Stratton would always take on a challenge.

Whether he was competing against his dad in a pickleball game or daring his older sister to a wrestling match, he always put in his full effort.

“It’s just those little moments,” Nate’s dad Greg said.

“I’ve been going to sleep every night thinking about him dancing around the pickleball court with a big smile on his face because he beat me.”

Nate was never full of himself or overly cocky

though, as his family described him as goofy and often light-hearted.

He worked hard at what he put his mind to. And, just days before he died, he celebrated his acceptance to a study abroad program in Australia for this upcoming summer, something his family said he had been working toward for some time now.

Nate died early Sunday morning after an alleged drunk driver struck him on an e-scooter while making his way back from Raising Cane’s. He was 20-years-old.

Stratton was a junior in the Kelley School of Business

and is originally from Excelsior, Minnesota. A vigil for Nate will be held 7 p.m. on Thursday at Showalter Fountain on IU’s campus.

From all over the country, people have reached out to the Strattons to let them know what Nate meant to them. His friends living in other time zones remember how Nate would stay up late waiting for them so they could play a video game together. He would invite new friends over, never letting them be a stranger for too long. His determination inspired those around him to reach for goals they said they

never would have on their own.

His sister Ceci remembers several years ago when she and Nate came across a goose that had died in their yard. Nate took the goose, wrapped it up and prepared a small funeral for it with her.

And, after commemorating this goose’s life, she said he buried the goose next to the family’s outdoor fireplace — where it still is today.

“That’s exactly how Nate was,” Ceci said. “He found the light in weird situations like that.”

Nate was an avid skier, beginning when he was

only 2-years-old. When he and his sisters were younger, they were all a part of a family skiing team called “The Need for Speed.” After a certain point, his dad said Nate surpassed him in his abilities. Through his love for skiing, Nate traveled to places all over the world including Switzerland and Belgium.

In addition to the vigil, loved ones can show support through a fundraiser Nate’s family has organized in support of research for Type 1 diabetes, for which he was diagnosed with at 16-yearsold.

Nate is survived by his

father Brad, his mother Elizabeth, two older sisters Abby and Ceci and grandparents Chuck and Sandy Landman.

Man charged after hours long storm drain search

By IDS Staff

news@idsnews.com

The man, who claimed to be armed and barricaded himself for over seven hours in a storm drain, was taken into police custody around 5 p.m. Tuesday afternoon after causing a large-scale police operation and a partial IU campus lockdown.

Police identified the suspect as 37-year-old Eli Swartsentruber. He was considered an "armed subject" but not an active shooter. No shots were reported.

Police say they found unspent rifle rounds, a hand scythe and a machete in the storm drains. No guns were located, and police are no longer searching the drains for weapons.

After a hospital visit, Swartsentruber was booked into the Monroe County Correctional Center with preliminary felony charges of attempted battery with a deadly weapon and intimidation.

Bloomington Police Department Capt. Ryan Pedigo said Tuesday that the Monroe County Sheriff's Office previously found probable cause for the Swartsentruber's arrest for four felony counts stemming from an event he was involved in Tuesday morning.

Additionally, Swartsentruber was wanted for a warrant in Daviess County for a felony charge of battery against a public safety official.

In a BPD news release, Pedigo said there may be additional charges since it is an active case. Other involved agencies may also criminally charge him.

Timeline of events BPD was called to Seminary Square Park around 9:30 a.m. due to a report of a man, Swartsentruber, attempting to hit people with a 3-foot pry bar, Pedigo said.

Police later said Swartsentruber is a man experiencing homelessness.

Upon arrival, he ran away and went to a vehicle in the adjacent Kroger parking lot to retrieve what police think was either a small hatchet or axe. Police said he returned and started to throw it at people in the park.

Swartsentruber was then seen heading southbound toward First Street, and officers could not find him in the area. However, clothes matching what people said he was last seen wearing were found near a large storm drain. He entered the storm drain through what Pedigo said was a very large entry into the ground.

When officers yelled down into the drain, Swartsentruber advised officers not to come into the tunnel and said he was armed with a rifle around 9:40 a.m. Pedigo said the man told officers he would shoot them if they made an entry.

From that point on, officers took cover and called in back-up and the Critical Incident Response Team, according to the release.

Multiple local police departments responded with Bloomington Police Department operating as the point department working on the situation. Due to the large area Swartsentruber could travel, the Indiana State Police SWAT team was called in to assist with the search.

Other local agencies, such as the Bloomington Fire Department and city utilities, were also on the scene to assist.

Police began searching the tunnel for Swartsentruber using the City of Bloomington Utilities department's small robots that are typically used to inspect the storm drain. Utilities also provided diagrams of the underground storm system to determine what tunnels

the man could fit in.

"I have to admit in my almost 20-year career, I've never been inside of a storm sewer checking for someone," Pedigo said Tuesday.

"It's certainly pretty unique."

Police were worried for the safety of those near Dunn Meadow and Franklin Hall since an exit to the storm drain was near Sixth Street and Indiana Avenue.

Officers were stationed there to ensure Swartsentruber did not flee out of that end of the drain.

IU students, staff and faculty were first alerted via IU-Notify around 12:20 p.m.

Just after, police started putting up caution tape around the intersection of Kirkwood and Indiana Avenue, as well as around Sample Gates and Dunn Meadow to block foot and vehicle traffic.

Police searched for the man in the underground system for most of the day.

Pedigo said Wednesday that Swartsentruber was in the storm drain for seven hours.

The drain stretched under a large portion of downtown, meaning police were looking for Swartsentruber along Walnut Street near Seminary Park, as well on

29th annual Lotus World Music and Arts Festival to kick off Sept. 22

Kirkwood Avenue by Franklin Hall.

Local police were seen blocking off the intersection at West Second Street and South College Avenue around 3 p.m. Police were guarding the sewer entrance right next to the Big Red Liquors and preventing cars from driving nearby.

At 3:20 p.m., multiple loud noises were heard coming from the sewer entrances, and steam was seen rising from the sewer grates along East Second Street and South Walnut Street.

Police warned on Twitter that people in the area south of Third Street, near First Street and Walnut Street, may hear such noises.

The loud bangs stem from noise diversion devices, Pedigo said. The tool was employed in an attempt to get Swartsentruber to leave the underground storm drain.

Police were seen attempting to speak with him around 3:30 p.m. by using a megaphone and asking him to come out with his hands up.

Swartsentruber eventually told police through a camera they sent into the

drain that he would come out, the release said. However, when he destroyed the camera and turned to run back in, senior ISP Trooper Richard Klun deployed his K9 partner Loki to take him down.

He finally emerged out the Sixth Street and Indiana Avenue drain exit around 5 p.m. partially clothed and surrounded by officers. Police patted him down before he was strapped onto a stretcher and taken for treatment for a K9 unit dog bite to IU Health Bloomington via ambulance.

Police said he had an empty handgun holster, but no guns were found on him or in the drain. However, a hand scythe, a machete and several unfired .30-06 rifle cartridges were located in the drain.

The police investigation is ongoing.

Around Bloomington and IU The Monroe County Community School Corporation was aware of the situation and monitoring it. The spokesperson said schools in the area were on alert. The Project School was on lock-

down earlier this day, according to multiple sources.

Around 1:45 p.m., a BPD spokesperson said everyone in Franklin Hall was being evacuated out of the building only through the southeast door. All remaining Tuesday classes in Franklin Hall were canceled per an email sent to students just after 2 p.m. This did not affect classes in other campus buildings.

The campus bus system avoided stopping at Sample Gates, the Indiana Memorial Union and the Collins LLC for the remainder of the day.

Several businesses near Indiana and Kirkwood Avenue were unaffected by the situation, including Goodfellas Pizzeria, Qdoba Mexican Eats and The Indiana Shop. They were open and serving customers. However, Bapu Fresh and Potbelly were closed for the rest of the day due to the situation.

Where people were asked to avoid People were asked to avoid the area from First to Third Street and Morton to Lincoln Street and the area around Franklin Hall and Dunn Meadow.

In a class of up-tempo offenses, Indiana came back from behind and defeated Western Kentucky University in overtime at home, 33-30.

With the win, the Hoosiers denied the Hilltoppers revenge from last year’s game.

Before Saturday, Western Kentucky was 0-8 against Big Ten teams in its program history, including four losses coming against Indiana. For the majority of the game, it seemed the Hilltoppers would notch their first win.

Consistency was a focal point throughout practice and preparation for Indiana’s

game against Western Kentucky. For the first time this season, Indiana would play football during the day as opposed to at night. After falling asleep under the lights it appears Saturday, the Hoosiers slept in to start the game.

The matchup between the Hoosiers and the Hilltoppers Saturday afternoon pitted two similar offenses riding on different trajectories against each other. Both offenses operated at an uptempo pace, Indiana’s average drive length was 1:49 while Western Kentucky’s was 1:58.

Both teams came into this matchup 2-0, but the differences were apparent. West-

ern Kentucky scored 87 total points compared to Indiana’s 58 through the first two games. Each team’s red zone efficiencies differed as well.

The Hoosiers scored on just four of seven red zone drives — scoring a touchdown on three. The Hilltoppers scored on eight of their ten red zone drives, with a touchdown on seven.

The up-tempo play was displayed by both teams early on with 15 different drives occurring in the first half. Eight drives took less than two minutes, including two touchdown drives. Not a single drive exceeded four SEE FOOTBALL, PAGE 4

IU Health lets stroke certification lapse Resources for Indiana

Patient surges and a new location fueled the hospital’s decision.

residents following state abortion ban

The IU Health Bloomington Hospital stands Sept. 7, 2022, at the corner of East Discovery Parkway and North Indiana 45 Bypass. The hospital recently chose to not renew its stroke certification.

By Christiana Avery

averycm@iu.edu | @christym_avery

Tammy Mobley Axsom was treated for a stroke in 2019 at IU Health Bloomington. She said she remembers being treated quickly and thoroughly, and without the resources the hospital had, she probably wouldn’t have survived.

In August 2022, IU Health Bloomington said it chose not to renew its stroke certification this year — a certification it had held since 2007. Axsom said she now worries patients won’t be treated right away.

After the hospital did not renew its certification, what has since ensued is confusion amongst residents about the hospital’s quality of care and an IU Health public statement criticizing another local Bloomington paper for its coverage.

Brian Shockney, president of IU Health South Central Region, told the IDS obtaining stroke certification is voluntary. The hospital didn’t lose the certification, but rather, made the choice to not renew it, Shockney said. He said this was because of high levels of patients in the midst of the pandemic as well as going through the process of moving into a new hospital.

“We made a conscious decision that recertification wasn’t something we had the resources nor the time to do at that point,” Shockney said.

But, other healthcare professionals outside IU Health say the lapse in certification could impact treatment times and locations.

What does it mean to receive this stroke certification?

The certification previously allowed the hospital to be named a Primary Stroke Center, a title given to hospitals with healthcare professionals specially trained in stroke care and with facilities to distribute faster treatment and individualized care. PSCs can provide more advanced diagnostic assessments using high-tech imaging.

Stroke certifications are administered by the Joint Commission, a national nonprofit that evaluates healthcare organizations.

Founded in 1951, the organization is the nation’s oldest and largest standardsetting, accrediting body in healthcare, according to its website.

To earn certification, healthcare organizations undergo on-site surveys every two years to examine whether the organization meets certification standards. For PSCs — the certification IU Health Bloomington had before it lapsed — these standards measure elements such as time between arrival at the emergency room and beginning of treatment, the types of treatment stroke patients receive and assessment for rehabilitation services.

Why did IU Health not re-certify?

Dealing with a patient surge after moving into the new hospital, IU Health Bloomington decided it

would be best not to allocate extra time to recertification, Shockney said.

The Joint Commission’s website said healthcare organizations should pursue the stroke certification. The stroke certification assists in establishing a consistent approach to care and demonstrates a commitment to a higher standard of service, according to its website.

Shockney said IU Health Bloomington is already ranked as a high-performing hospital for stroke care and continues to meet certification standards, even without being certified this year. He said having the certification itself, because it is voluntary, doesn’t prove anything.

IU Health Bloomington is ranked by U.S. News as high-performing in five categories of treatment — stroke, heart attack, kidney failure, maternity care and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

The hospital also holds Gold Plus Target Stroke Honor Roll Elite status with the American Heart Association for stroke treatment.

“Patients can come to us for their care as they did before without any doubt they’re going to get the best, and excellent, care,” Shockney said.

Before the hospital chose not to recertify, it was given an extension.

IU Health Bloomington spokesperson Samantha Kirby said the hospital was given its most recent certification in 2019, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The hospital was due for recertification in the fall of 2021, but it was approved for an extension due to the pandemic.

When the extension expired, the hospital decided not to seek recertification at that time. The recertification process meant IU Health Bloomington would have to submit an application with the data they collect and pay the Joint Commission to come in for an external review, Shockney said.

“We determined there wasn’t a need to really stress the team more with that kind of survey,” Cindy Herrington, Chief Nursing Officer of IU Health South Central Region, said. “The taxing of the team during that time was just not necessary — we continued with the same excellence.”

What are other local healthcare professionals saying?

Experts in stroke care in Indiana told the IDS they feel stroke certification is reassuring for the community and expressed the importance of having stroke-certified hospitals.

“I believe the hospital is responsible for explaining to the Bloomington community why the decision was made to not renew their stroke certification and describe what stroke care will look like going forward,“ Susan Savastuk, a former Stroke Program Coordinator at IU Health Bloomington who retired in 2015, said in an email.

Savastuk, while working for IU Health Bloomington, was tasked with facilitat-

ing the Joint Committee’s certification of the hospital, helping prepare everyone in the program to answer questions and demonstrate the hospital’s abilities.

Savastuk said having the certification allowed the hospital to advertise they are stroke-certified. It also meant emergency services knew to bring patients to IU Health Bloomington if they needed stroke care since Monroe Hospital is not stroke-certified.

“They knew we would have measures that we looked at, and we would get things done quickly and see the patient,” Savastuk said.

“Everybody was under the same standard.”

Savastuk recalled tracking treatment time meticulously during her time working at the hospital She said the stroke team would measure every element of care: the time it took emergency services to get to a patient’s home, the time it took to get the patient into an ambulance, time to be seen by a physician and time to be started on important stroke treatment.

Research shows that time is one of the most important factors in stroke care. Eighty-five percent of all strokes in the U.S. are ischemic strokes. The most common life-saving treatment for these types of strokes is tissue plasminogen activator, which is given to stroke patients to break up blood clots and restore blood flow to the brain. TPA is widely known as being most effective if administered within three hours after symptoms of a stroke arise.

Savastuk said that during her time at IU Health Bloomington, initial treatment times kept improving until the “door-to-needle” time — the time from when a patient entered the emergency room doors to the start time of TPA — was down to 60 minutes or less.

With Monroe County Hospital not being strokecertified, Savastuk said she’s worried there’s no known “stroke champion” in the area.

Eskenazi Health in Indianapolis is certified as a Primary Stroke Center.

Stroke Program Manager Michelle Glidden said having a stroke certification brings in a certain level of expertise because they are held to a higher standard of care. Stroke-certified hospitals also attract physicians who are passionate about stroke care.

“The research shows that the patients that go to a stroke center versus any hospital, their care is better and their outcomes are better,” Glidden said.

Glidden said more patients treated at certified stroke centers are prepared for rehabilitation and are sent home earlier rather than needing longer-term care.

The closest stroke-certified facilities to Bloomington are in Indianapolis.

Glidden said she thinks the lapse of stroke certification puts residents around Bloomington at a disadvantage. She cited a 2018 law and said she’d be interested

to see whether EMS services choose to take stroke patients to closer non-strokecertified hospitals or if they choose to airlift patients to certified hospitals.

What happened with the Herald-Times?

The Herald-Times published an article Aug. 26 titled “‘IU Health Bloomington has lost a stroke certification. What that means for patients.”

The article provided details about IU Health’s neurology team and comments from local neurologists, including one who formerly served as the hospital’s medical director for the stroke neurology team.

The neurologist, Dr. Ronnie Goswami, told the H-T he was concerned about what the loss of the certification could mean for the speed at which patients receive care. Goswami also told the H-T the lack of certification could mean some patients would need to be transferred to other facilities, and that he thinks the certification loss is a blow to IU Health Bloomington’s reputation.

An IU Health spokeswoman told the HeraldTimes in the article that the hospital remains committed to excellent stroke care and “continues to be a leading edge provider of stroke care.”

On Aug. 29, IU Health Bloomington posted a press release written by Shockney to its Facebook page. The press release criticized the Herald-Times’ reporting, stating the headline of the Herald-Times article was “irresponsible and harmful” to patients seeking care.

In the press release, Shockney said healthcare organizations have been faced with significant challenges over the past 2 1/2 years, which has required continual evaluation of voluntary and non-required certifications and programs that shift caregivers away from the bedside and add to costs.

Shockney said in the release that the claim that some patients may have to be transferred is untrue, and that IU Health has continued to invest in its neurology program by increasing the number of providers over the past five years and recruiting new neurologists.

However, the HeraldTimes published another story Sept. 12, stating the IU Health Bloomington communications team refused to name its staff neurologists or say which of them are accepting patients and when.

In an interview with the IDS prior to the second Herald-Times article, Shockney called the Herald-Times’ reporting “erroneous” and said the article “shocked all of us.” Herrington said the article brought unworthy attention that the hospital didn’t deserve. Herrington also said the hospital recently hired a new stroke coordinator.

Boris Ladwig, the reporter at the Herald-Times who wrote both articles, told the IDS in an email that “the stories and the reporting speak for themselves.”

According to the 2021 Terminated Pregnancy Report from the Indiana Department of Health, there were 8,414 abortions in Indiana in 2021, 512 of which were performed at the Planned Parenthood of Bloomington.

Indiana’s abortion ban went into effect Sept. 15, 2022. According to Senate Bill 1, there are exceptions for cases of rape or incest up to 10 weeks post-fertilization and fetal anomaly, or if continuing the pregnancy would cause harm to the life or physical health of the pregnant person up to 20 weeks postfertilization.

Many local organizations are offering resources for people after the overturn of Roe v. Wade.

All-Options Pregnancy Resource Center is a national nonprofit organization that has been providing support and promoting reproductive justice since 2004. It has a Talkline, offering support for all feelings, decisions and experiences with pregnancy, parenting, abortion and adoption. The organization has a Hoosier Abortion Fund which includes resources for people who qualify for

an abortion. It offers funding to help cover the costs of an abortion in another state where abortion is legal. Its website answers frequently asked questions about the organization, the process of getting an abortion and covering the cost of an abortion.

Planned Parenthood offers access to birth control, emergency contraception and pregnancy/ STD testing, among other resources. According to its website, Planned Parenthood wants to help with information and financial resources, where available, to get abortion care in other states. The Bloomington Planned Parenthood also provides resources such as finding abortion clinics nearby, getting facts about abortions and answering questions people may have.

Local organization The Hannah Center offers services for people seeking help making decisions associated with pregnancy and parenting. The organization offers one-on-one meetings with the staff, a partner or family to review concerns, process the situation and answer questions. It also provides pregnancy tests and free parenting and childbirth classes.

averycm@iu.edu | @ christym_avery

IU Police Department officers responded to a call from IU’s chapter of Kappa Alpha Theta regarding a suspicious note left on the front steps of its house Sept. 13.

Officers and members of the house reviewed the 8-page handwritten note which contained rambling thoughts with no threats made, IUPD Deputy Chief Shannon Bunger said.

The note did include a name, according to informa-

tion obtained by the Indiana Daily Student from a member of the sorority.

IUPD does not know who left the note, Bunger said, but IUPD does have a person of interest. Bunger said the individual who left the note has not committed any crimes, but IUPD is following up to determine why the papers were left at Kappa Alpha Theta.

Bunger said no further information will be released at this time until IUPD is able to speak with the person of interest.

On Sept. 8, the IU Cinema screened two films as part of the film series “Home Is Where the Heart Is: Black Cinema’s Exploration of Home.” The series is curated

by Maya Cade, the creator of the Black Film Archive and a scholar-in-residence at the Library of Congress.

The Black Film Archive

is a collection of films telling Black stories ranging from 1915 to 1979, which are available for the public to watch online. The archive is a valuable resource for film historians, cinephiles and anyone else interested in the films created by 20th century Black filmmakers.

This screening event focused on films delving into the idea of the “Body as Home,” specifically show-

casing the bodies of Black women and how they are viewed both by the women themselves as well as by the outside world.

The films shown for the second series screening were “A Different Image”

Jackson has become another city with a poorly designed water system

By Amani Gates

amagates@iu.edu | @amani_gates

In late August of this year, Jackson, Mississippi, was hit with heavy rains which led to flooding across the Pearl River. The flooding left 150,000 residents in Jackson without water for days.

Last week, the city was finally able to get water flowing from the faucet. However, Jackson is still lacking safe drinking water. A video surfaced on the internet of brown water coming from the faucets and the city is now in its sixth week of a boil-water advisory from the state health department.

This has been no surprise for Mississippi’s capital city.

Jackson has been dealing with its aging water system for years. The Environmental Protection Agency informed city leaders that its water system violated the federal Safe Drinking Water Act months ago and is investigating the issue.

Just like many other cities, Jackson can’t afford to fix its water supply. Its water plants suffer from old, leaking pipes and low staffing. It needs over a billion dollars to fully fix its water system, Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba said in an interview with WLBT. We have seen a similar type of problem before in Flint, Michigan. A predominantly Black city with an ongoing water issue, they have been without clean water since 2014 when they discovered there were lead and Legionella bacteria in the water.

Jackson has an 80% Black population with a quarter of that population living in poverty. It surely won’t be the last city to experience a faulty water system.

Places like Las Vegas, Honolulu, Baltimore, and the Rio Grande Valley are also experiencing blatant environmental prejudices in their cities. Similar to Jack-

son, the infrastructure is outdated, there is a lack of funds being allocated to help fix the pipes, and environmental issues such as extreme heat resulted in forest fires that have tainted reservoirs.

When cities begin to shift from predominantly white neighborhoods to predominantly Black neighborhoods, the funds also shift with them. According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, cities experiencing poor water access or having poor water systems are in predominantly Black or Hispanic communities.

Infrastructure issues today stem from the lack of investment in the water systems over the last few decades. Instead of trying to take on the issue when it was present, officials waited until the damage was irreversible, and now the human right to something as simple as running and clean water has been stripped from these communities.

ILLUSTRATION BY JULIETTE ALBERT

by Ayoka Chenzira.

“A Different Image” follows Alana, a young woman fascinated by African cultures, who has recently left a relationship. She is comfortable in herself and her body in the way that she has seen many of the African women she studies.

She wears traditional clothing pieces, sits with her legs open instead of crossed and doesn’t fawn over any man

she sees.

The story follows her interactions with Vincent, a male coworker and friend.

Vincent finds Alana’s selfcomfort odd and mistakenly thinks she is inviting romantic and sexual advances, which tarnishes their friendship. It invites the audience to question how they view the Black female body. Like Alana, or like Vincent?

“Alma’s Rainbow” is a coming-of-age story about Rainbow Gold, a young girl who learns to appreciate her body instead of hiding it. Influenced both by her mother Alma and her Aunt Ruby, Rainbow eventually learns what it means and what it costs to pursue her passions, all the while wrestling with her desire, or lack thereof, to interact with her male peers.

Rainbow begins the story binding her chest because she thinks it will give her more credibility in the hip-hop dance scene. When her Aunt Ruby — a woman who embraces and uses both her body and sexuality to build her career — comes to visit, Rainbow is inspired by her. Her mother, however, is a very physically conservative, business-focused woman who does not approve of her sister’s lifestyle, and Rainbow feels a pull from both sides.

BLACK VOICES

Highlights and disappointments from the 2022 Emmy Awards

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

Sheryl Lee Ralph accepts the award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for “Abbott Elementary” at the 74th Primetime Emmys on Sept. 12, 2022, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

By Maria McComish mwoodmcc@iu.edu | @mccomish_maria

On the night of Sept.

12, the 74th Annual Emmy Award winners were announced, and the results were both monumental and disappointing.

The live show competitive categories consisted of Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Drama Series, Outstanding Limited/Anthology Series to Outstanding Lead and Supporting, Directing and Writing.

Sheryl Lee Ralph of “Abbott Elementary” won for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series.

This makes her the second woman of color to win in this category, the first being Jackée Harry in 1987 for the sitcom “227.”

“To anyone who has ever, ever had a dream and thought your dream wasn’t, wouldn’t, couldn’t come true, I am here to tell you that this is what believing looks like. This is what striving looks like,” Ralph said in her speech after singing “Endangered Species” by Dianne Reeves.

“Abbott Elementary” took home a second award in the Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series cat-

egory, making writer Quinta Brunson the first Black woman to ever win this award solo.

Another highlight was comedian Jerrod Carmichael winning Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special.

He famously came out as gay in his special, “Rothanial” released in April, and has since talked about the struggles that come with revealing that part of himself.

“I made something that was of great personal consequence to me and this definitely contributes to the meaning of it,” Carmichael said in his acceptance speech.

Zendaya won a second time for her performance as Rue on “Euphoria.” She is now the first and youngest Black woman to win twice in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series category.

“Squid Game” actor Lee Jung-jae won for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, beating out big names like Jason Bateman and Brian Cox. The other categories that awarded white people or programs fronted by white people include Outstanding Drama Series, both supporting categories for a drama

series, Outstanding Comedy Series, all actor categories for a comedy series except for supporting actress, Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series, along with the rest of the acting categories for a Limited or Anthology Series, Outstanding Variety Talk Series, Outstanding Variety Sketch Series and several more.

Marginalized actors such as Bowen Yang, Donald Glover and Quinta Brunson all lost to their white peers.

“Ted Lasso” won Outstanding Comedy Series for the second year in a row, beating out “Abbott Elementary.”

Only seven awards out of the 25 televised categories were awarded to people of color or programs led by people of color. It seemed disappointing when the Academy released the nominations, revealing a decline in actors of color being recognized.

It is now easy to see the Academy has no problem diversifying its presenting pool throughout the event, with presenters such as Oprah Winfrey, Ariana DeBose and Angela Bassett. However, when it comes to awarding people in the industry, they consistently show their favor toward white actors.

and a half minutes.

On many occasions in the first half, it appeared Indiana got beat by its own style of play. After its offense tired out its opponents’ defenses to start the year, the Hoosiers' defense were the ones tired from graduate student quarterback Austin Reed and the Hilltoppers' offense.

At the end of the first half, the connection between the opposing team’s offenses was better than the connection between the offense and defense on each team. Redshirt junior quarterback Connor Bazelak had 221 yards compared to Reed’s 220. Indiana had 33 rushing yards while Western Kentucky totaled 31 yards.

In search of a secondhalf comeback, Western Kentucky answered Indiana’s opening-half field goal with a touchdown on the next drive. After Western Kentucky found itself at Indiana’s 9-yard line late in the third quarter, it appeared that one more score would be the knockout punch.

Although, in a pair of plays that were pivotal in the

game, the Hoosiers intercepted a ball inside the endzone and then recovered a forced fumbled inside Western Kentucky’s 20-yard line “We got to get better. We are going to get better” senior linebacker Cam Jones said after the game. “We built different. We some dogs.”

Bazelak would find Camper on the potential game-tying drive, with seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. After scoring, Indiana would convert the 2-point conversion for the first time this season to tie the game at 30 with 47 seconds remaining in the game.

Yet another late-game scoring drive from Bazelak would be overshadowed by Reed’s ability to march the Hilltoppers offense down and set up a potential gamewinning field goal. Although the kick sailed right and missed the goal posts to give Indiana life headed into overtime.

“I love the grit of this football team,” head coach Tom Allen said. “I love the perseverance.”

It was apparent that as soon as “Let's Go!” came out of Jones’ mouth after winning the overtime coin toss — the momentum was on the Hoosiers’ side.

A quick three and out led to another field goal attempt that senior cornerback Jaylin Williams was able to get to and block, which lead to an eventual game-winning field goal for Indiana to secure the win.

“There is a plan to keep the fans in the stands, so if it goes until the last play, then they got to stay,” Allen said after the game.

Despite Indiana’s 484 total yards of offense, Western Kentucky led with 545 total yards. However, the Hilltoppers costly turnovers and missed opportunities gave the Hoosiers a chance in the end.

Instead of focusing on the Hoosiers’ leading receivers, junior Cam Camper and graduate student DJ Matthews, Bazelak found 12 different receivers on the field to widen the attack.

“We got a lot of guys that can make plays,” Bazelak said. “When you go fast like

we do, it's always good to have fresh legs.”

Indiana ended the game six of seven in the red zone, scoring a touchdown on three. It was one of the few offensive stats in which the Hoosiers outdid the Hilltoppers.

Indiana was able to absorb the punches on both sides of the ball, but holes in the Hoosiers’ offense and defense were greatly exposed. Indiana met its match on the offensive side, and Western Kentucky likely did the upbeat tempo offense better.

“Trust me,” Bazelak said.

“You’ll see better football from us down the road.”

This game could be argued as a must-win for Indiana, as it will go onto play four ranked Big Ten opponents later this year, two of which on the road. Its next test comes Saturday against the University of Cincinnati in another revenge game on the flip side for the Hoosiers in Cincinnati, Ohio.

“We’re 3-0 with a lot of things to improve on,” said Allen. “We're not even close to playing our best football.”

JARED’S JOURNAL

Her Majesty the colonizer: a critical view of the late Queen Elizabeth II

ILLUSTRATION BY JULIETTE ALBERT

Jared Quigg (he/him)

is a junior studying journalism and political science.

“Lizzy’s in a box.”

Now, those aren’t my words. Those words were but the jubilant chant of Irish soccer fans during a game in Dublin last Thursday in response to the death of England’s Queen Elizabeth II. The Irish weren’t alone, either. Across the world, from India to Nigeria, Australia to Antigua and Barbuda, millions of people weren’t mourning the late queen. They were celebrating.

I wasn’t originally going to write a column about the queen. I was going to let the mourners mourn, and the world’s oppressed majority

cheer. But then I saw what the most popular news anchor in America was saying about the queen and the Empire she represented.

“England ended the trans-Atlantic slave trade,” Fox News host Tucker Carlson said. “England was an empire that did bad things, but compared to what?

Compared to any other empire in history, this was the most benign empire ever.”

I must tip my hat to Carlson: after all this time he’s been on the air, he continues to find new ways to annoy me. A few notes in response: To borrow an argument from the late Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago Eric Williams, Carlson, like the old British historians, talks about slavery “as if Britain had introduced Negro slav-

ery solely for the satisfaction of abolishing it.”

An empire that “did bad things?” In three words, Carlson glosses over centuries of genocide, plunder and brutality for which the British empire was responsible. Those three words cover up the fact, just to name one example, that the British built concentration camps in Africa long before the Nazis ever came to power.

Finally, there is no such thing as a benign empire.

But perhaps the reader of this column would like to take a middle road between Carlson’s thinly veiled white supremacy and the correct position that hereditary monarchies are bad and should not exist. (Americans should all have the correct position for crying out loud!

Thomas Paine spelled it out for us way back in 1776.)

The reader might think, “Well, I don’t agree with Tucker Carlson, but the queen seemed like a nice old lady, and besides, she wasn’t personally responsible for the crimes committed before or during her reign because she didn’t actually have any political power.”

As a socialist, I immediately balked at the suggestion that someone worth half a billion dollars holding a royal title has no actual political power.

But you don’t need to be a socialist to know that this statement is absurd.

For example, the royal family secretly vetted over 1,000 British laws before members of Parliament could debate them, according to a 2021

Guardian investigation. In several cases, the royals were found responsible for altering legislative proposals before elected officials could see them.

It is nothing short of political backwardness to ask for the approval of a monarch before lawmakers can openly debate new proposals. This would have been political backwardness 150 years ago, let alone today.

Perhaps even worse than asking for royal consent is the political inaction of the queen during her long reign.

It’s just been demonstrated she did in fact have power and did in fact use it. So, why didn’t she use it, say, to order Margaret Thatcher to stop sending death squads to kill civilians in Northern Ireland?

Why didn’t she return the Kohinoor diamond that is set in her crown that the British stole from India?

Why didn’t she ever step up to condemn the many crimes of her Empire?

It is beyond the scope of this column to cover all of Britain’s crimes during the reign of Elizabeth II. After all, most nations on earth have been invaded or colonized by the British empire.

I would encourage everyone to read about the suffering millions of people have endured under British colonialism and imperialism.

Many will mourn and miss her – the rest will remember her as the figurehead of perhaps the most malignant empire to ever exist. jaquigg@iu.edu

GENTRY JUDGES

The Kelley School Collaboration dishonors an inspiring journalist Gentry Keener (she/her)

is a sophomore studying journalism and political science.

The goal of the exhibit is to show that history — which often feels far away — is connected to us in many ways.

The Far Away, So Close: Indiana and El Salvador exhibit is displayed on the fourth floor of the East building in Herman B Wells Library. It will remain open until Dec. 16, 2022. It was originally created as a companion to the Kelley School’s Common Read book, “The Far Away Brothers: Two Young Migrants and the Making of an American Life.”

I have spent many years studying political science and have gone through numerous political science classes. So many in fact, that I am almost done with my political science minor as a first semester sophomore. Yet, I didn't understand the relevance of this exhibit in the slightest.

El Salvador's political climate is vastly different from anything we have ever experienced in America. Between the coups and dictators, citizens were often part of democides, and many fled to escape bad situations. The exhibit attempts to show that during the El Salvador Civil War, the former Indiana governor, Richard G. Lugar, and President Ronald Reagan, provided $60 million in aid while modifying U.S. foreign policy. Although I see their efforts and

the theme is somewhat there, it just doesn’t feel well executed. First, the exhibit is displayed in the hallway outside of the University Archives.

It almost feels as though no effort was put into the exhibit, as if there was nothing special to see.

After reading the documents and newsletters displayed, there is no real explanation of how Lugar was involved in any of the

efforts. The only proof he was there is through a few letters and pictures.

Considering the exhibit is in companionship with the book, this feels like a distasteful ode to an inspirational book.

“The Far Away Brothers” is about two young boys from El Salvador who escape to the US after getting into some trouble with the region's brutal gangs. It shows

their journey, highlighting their triumphs and downfalls, as they fight to learn and discover life in America. The author, Lauren Markham, is an incredible journalist, reporter and author, who worked with young migrants in Northern California and dedicated her time to teaching young migrants English.

Markham put countless hours and tireless

efforts into this book, aiming to show the heartache of immigrants and all that they go through in their home countries, as well as once they reach America. This exhibit almost feels like a dishonor and degradation of her name and her work.

If you want to learn about the situation in El Salvador, I highly recommend reading the book, for it is much more in-

formative and portrays a moving story that will inspire you. You can access the book through Kelley Common Reads.

Not only does this exhibit fail to teach you about the political relationship between El Salvador and Indiana. It also leaves you confused, due to the lack of coherency and dull readings. gekeener@iu.edu

COLUMN: Rina Sawayama’s ‘Hold the Girl’ is a new definition of pop

By Charlotte Jones cmj35@iu.edu

For Rina Sawayama’s sophomore album “Hold the Girl,” I was hoping for something more experimental. Instead, I got a pop anthem album.

Sawayama has created music with some of my favorite artists, gaining her a loyal, and mostly gay, fanbase. She’s on her way to becoming the next pop superstar at 32 years old. Her newest album solidified her as a solid and consistent pop artist.

“Hold the Girl” opens with her laying out all her insecurities and worries regarding the album, setting us up for the title track. I expected more from this track, but it does show off her theatrical vocals very well. She clearly knows how to add extra pizazz on a song, with a beautiful string section highlighting her vocals.

“This Hell,” the first single off of the album, is one of the best music videos of the year. I love the subver-

sion of the idea of hell as a sexy nightclub, and I would ensure that Sawayama is the nightly entertainment.

The next few songs aren’t remarkable. The song concepts are interesting, however, ranging from a mother and daughter discussing their relationship in “Catch Me In The Air” to emulating “The Bends” by Radiohead in “Forgiveness.” The intro in “Forgiveness” boasts an uncanny resemblance to the intro in “Sulk” by Radiohead, showing off her versatility as an artist and creating a fun easter egg for Radiohead fans.

“Imagining” and “Frankenstein” are exactly what I wanted from this album. A little bit funkier and a little more experimental, these songs emphasize the horrors of manipulative relationships. Sawayama’s added notes for “Frankenstein” on Spotify show how she got Matt Tong of Bloc Party to go crazy with the drum track: “Matt sent a pic of his hands bleeding; he’d gone so mad on the drums.” Her constant

collaboration with impressive artists shows how much of an artist she truly is. She has a concrete vision for every song she writes and executes it beautifully.

Ending the album with four more emotional ballads, Sawayama’s vocals are the final emphasis of her artistry. None of them are the kinds of songs I wanted, but they are all beautiful nonetheless. “Hold the Girl” doesn’t end on the highest of notes, but it comes to a natural conclusion.

This album is worth the listen. It’s not a single emotion captured in time but rather a tapestry of Sawayama’s life since her first album “SAWAYAMA.” “Hold the Girl” is a more commercial pop version of her debut album. With no features whatsoever, it flaunts her own artistic vision with only her voice to tell it. I expect to hear “Hold the Girl” and “Forgiveness” gracing the radio airwaves soon. It’s only a matter of time before she reaches the stardom she deserves.

DIRTY HIT

Rina Sawayama released her second studio album “Hold the Girl” on Sept. 16, 2022.

COLUMN: ‘Do Revenge’ is a Gen Z-ified take on a Hitchcock classic

By Chloe Fulk cdfulk@iu.edu

Netflix’s latest attempt at creating an edgy teen cult classic is Jennifer Kaytin Robinson’s “Do Revenge.” The film follows two high school students at an expensive private school, Drea, Camila Mendes, and Eleanor, Maya Hawke, who agree to enact revenge on one another’s bullies.

Drea will target the girl who outed and spread a nasty rumor about Eleanor, and Eleanor will infiltrate the school’s popular clique to expose Drea’s ex-boyfriend, who leaked a private video of hers. As they become more obsessed with getting revenge, their once-blossoming friendship begins to crumble.

“Do Revenge” is loosely based on Alfred Hitchcock’s 1951 thriller “Strangers on a Train,” which follows two men who agree to “exchange” murders with each other, so there’s no way they can be traced back to the crimes. The two men form a bond that quickly devolves into a toxic co-dependency — something that is appropriately mirrored and modernized in “Do Revenge.” The film also draws inspiration from a myriad of classic teen comedies, namely “Mean Girls,” “Heathers” and “John Tucker Must Die.” The film hits all the major tropes, including the manic pixie dream girl/boy, makeover montage and unrealistic high school party. It oftentimes teeters the line between cringey and campy. Some

one-liners are clever, but others feel out of touch and exaggerated. The writers’ idea of Gen Z seems like a warped caricature, which is somewhat justified considering the film’s satirical nature.

Mendes, the clear standout of the film, has a particularly fun time delivering these quippy bits of dialogue. Her comedic timing makes the cringe-inducing writing feel clever instead. It’s refreshing to see her in something other than “Riverdale,” and I’m looking forward to when she’ll be free from the shackles of that show if it means she’ll be able to explore other comedic roles.

Hawke, although overshadowed by Mendes, is also great in her role. Her naturally timid demeanor comple-

ments Mendes’s eagerness, and their chemistry is fabulous. The supporting cast is also great, though underutilized. Sophie Turner completely owns her two minutes of screen time as a rage-filled tennis player, and I wish she had more time to shine. Alisha Boe also brings a level of sweetness and compassion to her role as Drea’s ex-best friend.

Austin Abrams is particularly perfect as Max, Drea’s exboyfriend and the film’s main antagonist. His character accurately represents the new breed of misogyny disguising itself as feminism and allyship to a scary degree. One of the best gags of the entire film occurs when he announces the formation of the “Cis Hetero Men Championing Female

Identifying Students League” at a school rally. Drea and Eleanor see through the façade, but the rest of the school swoons.

“Do Revenge” targets many of our generation’s flaws: narcissism, materialism and our obsession with status. While the film certainly delivers some sharp commentary, it never fully com-

mits to the satirical edge that’s expected.

The final twist is satisfying and well-executed, but the quality of the writing drops after the big reveal. Unlike “Strangers on a Train” and “Heathers,” “Do Revenge” is all bark and no bite: a film more concerned with its aesthetic and soundtrack than having a coherent third act.

Dressing for fickle fall weather Words by Ellie Albin ealbin@iu.edu

Illustrations by Cailin O’Malley caiomall@iu.edu

It’s a strange time of year in Bloomington. The calendar may say it’s fall, but remnants of summer linger, with some intense high temperatures bound to last well into October. That being said, cooler moments will creep their way in, making dressing for September and October a difficult — but fun — challenge.

When you’re building a flexible fall wardrobe, check your closet for these essentials: Cardigan

Fall is all about the iconic cardigan. One of the best aspects of a cardigan is how easy it is to slip on and off depending on the temperature, so be sure to stock up on a few for the fall. It’s best to buy neutrals if you’re aiming to wear them with multiple outfits­—look for colors like beige and white. It’s nice to mix in some warmth, though, so don’t shy away from tones like burnt orange, maroon or copper to blend in with the changing leaves.

Basic T-shirts

You can’t go wrong with a simple t-shirt. This wardrobe staple is great to wear on its own when it’s warm out, but you can easily slide one of those cardigans over it — making it an adaptable option for unpredictable Indiana weather.

Tennis shoes

Since you might be ready to put your open-toed shoes away for the season, tennis shoes are a great alternative that still feel comfortable in warm weather and keep your toes covered in cool weather. They’re great for walking long distances — whether you’re going to class or taking a weekend hike in Brown County — and you can find many sleek, affordable pairs that complement any ensemble.

Scarves — but nothing excessive

You certainly don’t need a giant wool scarf yet. But a thin, lightweight linen scarf that you can fold and keep in your bag is a good idea. When a breeze kicks in and you start to feel that chill, you’ll want to protect your neck from the elements. And it’ll be easy enough to take off if you start to feel too sweaty.

Rain gear

Rain is an ever-present threat across Indiana, and Bloomington is no exception. Make sure you have a raincoat and rain boots in an easily accessible location so getting ready for school is quick and simple. For pop-up storms, keep a foldable rain poncho in your bag or purse along with a small umbrella.

Oh — and don’t forget to stock up on the umbrella bags many IU buildings put out when it storms. If you don’t have access to those, though, be sure to carry around grocery bags for your wet poncho and umbrella.

Gloves and hand warmers

Keeping a pair of knit gloves in the pocket of your backpack or purse is an excellent idea for the fall. They’re especially great for early morning tailgates, and when paired with hand warmers, you’re bound to stay toasty. As the day warms up, though, gloves are small enough to be tucked away for later usage, and hand warmers can be thrown away.

FOOTBALL

COLUMN: Indiana once again pushed the limit to pick up an unlikely win

By Will Foley

wtfoley@iu.edu | @foles24

Somehow, Indiana football is 3-0. For the third consecutive week, the Hoosiers escaped with a victory, finding a way at the very end to beat Western Kentucky University 33-30 in overtime.

The Hoosiers did not make it easy for themselves either. Trailing by 11 points entering the fourth quarter, they committed several untimely penalties and errors.

Still, the Hoosiers fought back to tie the game at 30 points with 47 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. Then, they tried to give the game right back by committing several errors to give the Hilltoppers a chance.

First, senior kicker Charles Campbell sent the kickoff out of bounds, giving Western Kentucky the ball at its 35-yard line. After allowing a 19-yard play on third down, the Hoosiers were then flagged for pass interference to move Western Kentucky into field goal range.

Indiana survived its selfinflicted wounds, and Western Kentucky missed the 44yard field goal, sending the game to overtime.

In overtime, the Hoosiers blocked the Hilltoppers’ 39yard field goal attempt before Campbell drilled a 51-yarder to seal the win for Indiana.

Mistakes plagued the Hoosiers all throughout the game, not just at the end, and they should be thankful it didn’t cost them the game.

Several dropped passes took away potential big plays, missed tackles allowed for the Hilltoppers to run all over the field and poor playcalling ended multiple drives shorter than expected.

But hey, Indiana won.

Junior quarterback Connor Bazelak threw for 364

yards, senior running backs Josh Henderson and Shaun Shivers split duties to combine for 123 yards. While the defense faltered for a while, it once again came up in the biggest moments at the end of the game.

The Hoosiers also had a love-hate relationship with penalties. Some were unfavorable, like a targeting call against Western Kentucky in the first quarter, which was overturned on a drive that the Hoosiers eventually settled for 3 points.

However, penalties tremendously helped the Hoosiers down the stretch. Western Kentucky accumulated 33 yards of penalties on Indiana’s game-tying touchdown drive, doing nearly half the work necessary to score.

Several Indiana players emerged from the win with much bigger roles than prior to the game. Most significant was sophomore offensive lineman Caleb Murphy, who played every snap in his first start protecting Bazelak.

Also on that list was Henderson, who picked up 65 yards and a touchdown on the ground along with an impressive one-handed catch leading to a 32-yard gain.

Henderson received more snaps than the starter Shivers down the stretch — a position battle to watch closely in the future.

Regarding long-term takeaways, I’m not sure what there is to offer. All I can do is beg the question: Is Indiana just extremely lucky at the end of games? Or are these late-game heroics telling of this Hoosier team, who has elevated play on both sides of the ball when the game is on the line. I’ll side with the optimists and choose the latter statement, that Indiana’s experience proves valuable in closegame situations.

Indiana earns its 6th scoreless tie against No. 8 Penn State Assembly

Indiana women’s soccer opened its conference slate on Sept. 18 in Bloomington with a matchup against No. 8 Penn State. The game resulted in a 0-0 draw, the Hoosiers’ sixth scoreless tie of the season and a new NCAA D-I record.

Though Indiana has been all too familiar with Sunday’s outcome, head coach Erwin van Bennekom said his team is treating it differently than the rest.

“If we didn’t have that many ties going into this game, the narrative would be a little different,” van Bennekom said. “I told (the team) to look at this one separate.”

The draw against the Nittany Lions was significant for the Hoosiers in more ways than the notable NCAA D-I record. Van Bennekom earned the first point against Penn State in his tenure, Indiana snapped a five-game losing streak in the series, and sophomore goalkeeper Jamie Gerstenberg recorded

the 16th clean sheet of her career, extending the Hoosiers’ exceptional defensive campaign.

Gerstenberg collected her first save in the seventh minute, but the aggressive play of the Hoosier defenders limited the Nittany Lions’ shots on goal. For the majority of the first half, Penn State struggled to move the ball into its half of the field, and Indiana retained possession for a longer duration than the opponent.

“Our defense, the whole team and the way we set up

was much better in the first half,” van Bennekom said.

“We relied less on Jamie, but she still made key saves to keep us in the game.”

Gerstenberg tallied eight saves, tying her career high from a matchup against Virginia Tech on Aug. 21. Her goalie play was crucial to the draw, with Penn State attempting eight total shots in the second half, including one in the game’s final 15 seconds.

Unlike most of the draws that Indiana has encountered this season, the offen-

sive production in Sunday’s matchup was consistent and high quality. The Hoosiers’ aggressive play and competitive drive was evident in their speed, pesky defense and in-control offense from the outset.

Against a Penn State offense that had scored 13 goals in six games before coming to Bloomington, the entirety of Indiana’s squad made a point of fighting for every 50-50 ball, intercepting passes and refusing to back down.

“We stopped (Penn State) from stretching the ball out, and we stopped them from isolating in the right area,” van Bennekom said. “We got exactly what we wanted.”

Despite 14 total fouls and an intense foot race of a game, the Hoosiers’ competitive drive never wavered.

Van Bennekom credited behind-the-scenes figures in the program and his own athletes’ mental maturity for the exceptional preparation leading up to the conference matchup against a top-10 team.

“Our team does an amazing job of providing the scout for me, thinking about how we’re gonna set up defensively, press them and disrupt them,” van Bennekom said. “I’m so impressed with (the players) and how we can come up with something, and they execute it to a T.” The Hoosiers will travel to Minneapolis to face Minnesota on Thursday. The match is set to begin at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast on BTN+.

Hall to start selling beer

By Emma Pawlitz

epawlitz@iu.edu | @emmapawlitz

Indiana athletics announced the addition of beer sales to Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall for men’s and women’s basketball games beginning Oct. 7 during Hoosier Hysteria. Assembly Hall is the fifth university sporting venue to include alcohol sales, in addition to Memorial Stadium, Bart Kaufman Field, Andy Mohr Field and Bill Armstrong Stadium.

“We continue to receive very positive feedback about our decision to introduce this option at a number of our other home sporting events, which makes this decision a logical next step in our ongoing efforts to improve the experience for our passionate Hoosier fans,” Athletic Director Scott Dolson said in an IU release. “As we have done at our other venues, we will be diligent about promoting, encouraging, and supporting responsible behavior at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.”

Customers must show a valid photo ID proving they are at least 21 years old and will be limited to two drinks per transaction. Sales will conclude with 10 minutes remaining in the second half during men’s games and at the end of the third quarter during women’s games.

MEN’S GOLF

Indiana finishes 12th at Fighting Illini Invitational, Drew Salyers finishes 20th

By Ben Kim

benskim@iu.edu | @bybenkim

Indiana men’s golf battled the tournament field for three days over the weekend before finishing in 12th place out of 15 teams. The lineup of teams for this year’s Fighting Illini Invitational at Olympia Fields Country Club was set to test the Hoosiers, and it did just that.

Junior Drew Salyers led the way for the Hoosiers, finishing tied for 20th place indi-

vidually. He shot a 214 combined score, shooting 71, 72 and 71 respectively over three rounds.

Before the competition began Friday, head coach Mike Mayer said this year’s Fighting Illini Invitational would be one of the hardest tournaments of the 2022 season, and he was right. No. 15-ranked Stanford University led the field, shooting a -9 through three rounds of competition, which was 12 shots better than the second place

finishers No. 3 University of Florida and No. 11 Illinois.

IU finished the first round of play in fifth place, tied with No. 15 University of Arizona.

Salyers and seniors Eric Berggren and Noah Gillard each shot a 71 (+1) through the first round. The round was highlighted by three birdies apiece from Berggren and Gillard, with junior Clay Merchant picking up two birdies of his own to finish with a 72 (+2) through one round.

After the relatively strong

start, the second round of play saw Indiana fall down the rankings and finish the round in eighth place. Gillard paved the way for the team again, picking up a team-best four birdies en route to shooting a 73 (+3) for the second round.

Salyers used the second round to move into the top spot on Indiana’s team ranking. His three birdies and 72 (+2) round were enough to move him into first with a combined two round score

of 143. Indiana finished the second round ahead of 12th place No. 2 University of North Carolina and 12th place No. 9 University of Texas.

Round three of play saw Indiana paired with No. 25 University of Arizona and Baylor University.

Salyers picked up another solid round, shooting a 71 (+1) to finish tournament play. His final round included a trio of birdies. Berggren also had a three birdie round and

finished with a 220 combined score, but it proved to be in vain as the Hoosiers ended the tournament with a team total score of 865 (285- 290290, +25) — good enough for 12th place and a finish over No. 10 Pepperdine University.

Mayer and the Hoosiers will look to regroup and refine their skills before their next weekend tournament, the Windon Memorial Classic hosted by Northwestern starting Sept. 26th in Skokie, Illinois.
