NC increases solar energy capactiy

Pope Francis ended his visit to the United States Sunday declaring himself “overwhelmed by shame” at the sexual violation of children by his clergy, embracing inmates at a local jail, urging young people to leave the loneliness of social media and bidding farewell with a huge Mass in downtown Philadelphia. Since arriving in the U.S. on Tuesday, Pope Francis has been met by large crowds.

Sunday’s farewell took place on Eakins Oval in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and drew more than a million visitors.

The pope departed the U.S. just after 7:30 p.m.

Despite rain, bluegrass festival strums on

IN BRIEF

The North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association reported that the state’s installed solar capacity now exceeds 1 GW. North Carolina, whose solar industry accounts for more than $1.6 billion in revenue, follows California, Arizona and New Jersey as the fourth in the nation to exceed a capacity of 1 GW. The NCSEA credits the rapid expansion of North Carolina’s solar market to strong energy policies such as the state’s renewable energy and energy efficiency portfolio standard as well as the renewable energy investment tax credit.

Rain nearly ruined the second annual Live and Local: Bluegrass on Hillsborough Street music festival Saturday and Sunday, but with the help of some of NC State’s most popular hangouts, the show went on.

Hosted by Live It Up!

Animal Science Club prepares for State Fair Adam Davis Correspondent

Continuing its longstanding tradition, NC State’s Animal Science Club is preparing to have a strong presence at the North Carolina State Fair, which begins Oct. 15.

Fair attendees can expect to see members of the Animal Science Club showing off livestock, helping with the North Carolina Cattlemen’s Association and running the club’s iconic milking booth where, for $3, visitors can milk a dairy cow and enjoy a carton of Howling Cow milk.

The fair acts as an opportunity for the club to “promote agriculture and teach about the industry,” said Sarah Martin, a senior studying animal science and the president of the Animal Science Club. “People come looking for us at the fair.”

Meagan Noblin, a junior studying animal science and a second-year club member, said the fair typically excites

In August, Student Health rolled out another on-campus service: dental care.

And since the opening of the offices a little more than a month ago, all appointments have been booked.

Partnering with Onsite Dental Solutions, NC State will now be able to offer a full-service boutique dental experience, which includes noise-canceling headsets and coffee afterward, to students, faculty and staff. The two offices are located at the Student Health Center on Main Campus and in Research Building II on

Centennial Campus.

According to Leah Arnett, director of Student Health Services, past efforts to bring dental care to students were prevalent but nothing ever seemed to work out.

“The people who were here before tried to bring dental services to campus, but it was just so expensive to purchase all of the equipment and to hire the staff,” Arnett said. “So, when this solution [Onsite Dental Solutions], a full turnkey operation, came along, we decided it was the best avenue for us to take to be able to

Students interested in living healthy lifestyles now have the opportunity to join two new clubs at NC State dedicated to health and wellness and vegetarian and vegan lifestyles.

The Good Club: The Good Club is aimed at helping people focus on bettering all facets of their lives.

At the club’s interest meeting last week, Phian Tran, a junior transfer student and the president of the Good Club, stressed the importance of leading a healthy, well-rounded lifestyle, as well as understanding yourself and your body.

“Health is for everybody, and health starts with being happy,” Tran said.

Each month, the club will host one large meeting as well as smaller, individually focused activities.

The focus groups and activities will incorporate the mind, body and spirit, according to Tran.

For the mind, chairpersons will host lectures on topics such as curing hangovers, proper nutrition and maintaining relationships. For the body, club members will go hiking, climbing, do yoga and learn simple room workouts. For the spirit, chairpersons hope to organize service projects throughout the year, as well as talk about confidence.

“Absolutely anyone can join — we want everyone to come,” said Eleanor Williams, a junior studying biological sciences and vice president of the Good Club. “Everyone deserves to feel good, everybody deserves to be happy, and everyone deserves to make good friends and do good things, and that’s what we’re all about.”

in trouble when the weather forecast showed a 70 percent chance of rain for the weekend.

“We’ve had to rearrange everything,” said David Dean, director of programs for Hillsborough Street Community Service Corporation.

Of the 18 bands scheduled to play, there were only enough stages in the Hillsborough Street area for 12 to move indoors. “We salvaged what could have been a bad situation,” Dean said. “There were good crowds all day long, and the bands have had a good time.”

Saturday’s concert in the Louise Stephenson Amphitheater was moved inside the Raleigh

Little Theatre, which attracted a crowd of about 300 bluegrass fans. Sunday’s performances were moved to McDaids Irish Pub, Irregardless Cafe and the Raleigh Brewing Company, who all made last-minute arrangements to accommodate the festival. “[Live and Local] attracts community to up-and-coming and established bluegrass acts and drives visibility of our vendors,” Dean said.

For Irregardless Cafe, which offers live music often, the event brought in a crowd of about 75 during a time when it is normally closed.

“None of us were expecting this,” said Dodge, manager of Irregardless Cafe.

“David [Dean] called me in a panic because he had already paid the bands,” said the owner of Ir-

regardless Cafe, Arthur Gordon.

Despite the short notice, Gordon made sure the bands had a place to play. “The Church Sisters were fabulous — sweet with a quiet energy,” Gordon said. “Then, the Lonesome River Band came on, and when they hit the stage, it was like bam!”

Tyler Bills, an operating partner for McDaids Irish Pub, welcomed the venue change.

“It’s a surprise,” Bills said. “As a merchant, of course I prefer to have people under my roof instead of outside in front.”

In comparison to last year’s festival, the rain made little difference to the crowd. Matt Kent, a graduate student studying textile engineering, said, “It’s not that great of a day, but the bluegrass is good.”

new members. “[The fair] is really geared for people who have never shown [an animal] before,” Noblin said.

New members of the club gain experience training for the fair, including teaching cows how to be guided by a rope, learning the proper way to show an animal and memorizing general facts about the animals shown at the State Fair. “It’s a really good way to learn about a species,” Noblin said.

For Noblin, teaching fairgoers about animals is one of the best parts of the event.

“You’re not only learning animal skills, you’re also learning how to educate the public,” Noblin said.

Whether it has to do with the size of the cows or what kind of cows chocolate milk comes from, members of the Animal Science Club work hard to clear up common misconceptions about the agriculture industry.

Martin said she often tells guests about the safety of drinking milk fresh from a cow’s udder. Because many people worry about their milk being antibiotic free, Martin informs them that milk has to be tested before it leaves the farm.

The North Carolina State Fair is the club’s main event each year. The club’s more-than-100 active members and strong ties with its alumni are what allow it to have such a strong presence year after year.

“We’ve kind of found a system that works for us, and we tend to have success with that,” Martin said.

Don’t censor my shirts I

‘Revenge porn’ is just a power struggle L

adies and gentlemen, boys and girls, history has been made in North Carolina: Legislation to criminalize “revenge porn” is here at last. If this is signed into action, the sharing of nude or sexually explicit photos online without the individual’s affirmative consent does not just make you a bad person, but also Katherine a criminal.

Waller Our First A mendment Staff Writer rights have kept revenge porn from being criminalized in the past. Victims of revenge porn have found little protection from the law because our right to free speech usually favors pornography unless it is judged obscene — which is funny, as one would typically anticipate that pornography would be judged obscene. However, conf lict arises when revenge porn contains pictures of unknowing and non-consenting individuals and is posted along with identifying information such as the victim’s name, address, age or workplace due to privacy laws.

As students, we face certain censorships, and while, as a writer, I’m not fully comfortable with that in the case of this new legislation, I am perfectly at peace with our right to what some may consider restrictions of “free speech.” A form of sexual exploitation is going to be criminalized, and that is a victory.

When someone is the victim of revenge porn, his or her life is forever altered. These individuals can be fired from their jobs, expelled from school and harassed because of their perceived promiscuity. Many have to change their legal names and move to escape the effects of the images. Victims often suffer from mental and emotional trauma and face irreparable damage to their reputation. Revenge porn follows those who are victimized throughout their lives, and it exploits a double standard that harms

{

IN YOUR WORDS

women more than men.

Celebrity hackings and nude photo leaks have been all the rage in recent years, and even celebrity Marilyn Monroe, in the height of her career back in the 1960s, experienced a similar phenomenon when nude photos of her were leaked. While celebrities often receive sympathy and do not suffer major damaging effects to their lives or careers, normal people experience a much less forgiving world.

Taylor Swift brings about glorious acts of revenge against ex-lovers through the intimate lyrics of her songs. This, in turn, brings her extreme levels of success. It is no surprise that we are socialized to filter any complexity of emotion that we often do not know how to deal with through a lens of anger and revenge. In the name of becoming uninhibited and more honest as a culture, we have reduced sex to its most primitive expression: one of power.

Revenge porn is evidence that all power corrupts. As Stephen Colbert performed a skit that played on the “Hunger Games” Tuesday night titled “The Hungry for Power Games” regarding the inimitable ambition of people vying for the presidential seat in the upcoming elections, I could not help but think of the parallels between the current state of political affairs and our disturbing revenge porn trend. The radical themes that color the current campaigns is just as much about American anxiety of losing power as revenge porn is generally about male anxiety in the wake of feminist social trends.

Revenge porn is both despicable and pathetic. I wish we didn’t have to have a law for people to understand its grievous effects on the targeted individual. If sexuality did not hold the social taboo that it does, people would not use it as leverage to ruin the lives of others. I’m glad to see this act has become criminalized even though in an ideal world, it should not have to be so.

How do personal politics factor into your communication with other students?

BY CHRIS MERVIN

“So, personal politics are very interesting because if you’re not careful they can color your world view and how you interact with others.

So, sometimes at points you have to remove yourself from those when you’re discussing certain topics. But, at certain times it is important to get your point across and what you believe in.”

“With personal politics, if they’re at the complete opposite of the spectrum and they seem a little militant about their beliefs as in like not willing to change, I’m more likely to avoid talking about it. But if they have an opinion, and their willing to discuss their opinion, if it’s different than mine, then that’s great. I love having discussions like that, and when you talk about it, that’s how changes are made.”

tutional rulings. In Virginia, a middle school student’s T-shirt that read “Drugs Suck” was banned because the word “suck” is supposedly vulgar. Meanwhile, another student’s shirt featuring singer Marilyn Manson was banned because of the “offensive” content of his songs.

This sets a dangerous precedent under which school administrations can ban whatever they feel is offensive without considering the previous Tinker disruption standards. Just because some individuals find a shirt offensive does not mean that the shirt is disruptive.

What constitutes something as offensive widely varies and is subjective.

Of course, I’m not advocating that students be allowed to wear whatever they want to. Although it is legal to wear anti-abortion shirts, I’m certain that a picture of an aborted fetus goes above and beyond what’s necessary to get antiabortion messages across. Besides being a little gross, it would constitute a serious risk of disruption.

All I’m advocating for is more freedom for students to be able to express themselves. School administrators have no right to ban shirts just because they don’t like them. Students’ free speech should be protected because fostering opinions among students should be more important than potentially offending someone else.

Tech companies want to violate privacy privately P

rotection of your privacy and personal data is supposedly a top priority of the large technology companies, after their precious profits of course. As it turns out, they are more than willing to share private user Jaylen Rodgers data and cooperate Guest Columnist w it h gover n ment agencies under the veil of “cybersecurity.”

On Sept. 14, leaders of the largest technology companies — including Apple and Microsoft — penned a letter to Congress lobbying for the “prompt” passage of Cyber Threat Information Sharing Legislation laws, such as the heinous and unpopular Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act up for vote in the Senate. Commonly known as CISA, this proposed legislation allows tech companies to share their customer’s private data not only with government agencies like the NSA and Homeland Security, but with each other as well.

What does CISA mean for us? First of all, all privacy policies or data protection laws basically become null and void if the information requested pertains to “cybersecurity” threats. Companies are permitted to share data with all government agencies and local law enforcement, as well as from other software makers, if requested. Examples of this user data include all of your iMessages, pictures, web surfing history, etc. This should enrage everybody who uses these companies’ products, as they have outwardly promised to keep our data secure and private in the public eye while secretly lobbying lawmakers to pass laws such as CISA behind our backs. They don’t even have the guts to take responsibility for their actions, banding together as the Software Alliance, also known as BSA, to avoid recognition. The BSA is a coalition of the top technology companies, including Microsoft, Apple, Adobe, Symantec and many others.

The problem isn’t access to your data,

because despite what these companies claim, they developed the technology you are using and will do whatever they want with it to serve their own interests and make profits. The real issue is that CISA provides corporations and the government countless legal loopholes to exploit so that they can do whatever they want to private citizens. The excuse of “fighting cyberterrorism” is not a valid reason to grant them these rights.

The primary reason software companies want this bill passed is to gain immunity from crimes such as cyber espionage, illegal data access and even insider trading. The NSA might as well invite Edward Snowden back to the country if this legislation passes, because all of their illegal spying he exposed will be in the norm.

When this bill was first drafted, it gained widespread controversy and criticism for its privacy violations and was swiftly swept under the rug. However, this summer’s leak of thousands of federal employees’ personal data at the Office of Personnel Management allowed Congress and software giants to seize the opportunity and reintroduce the bill to the Senate, who will have another vote when Congress reconvenes.

If you don’t believe this mass surveillance bill could possibly be drafted, it is available for viewing on the congressional website where you can also track its progress toward being signed into law. The letter signed by corporate executives lobbying for CISA passage can be found on the BSA website.

If you want to help fight these mass surveillance laws, stop buying products from these evil, corporate hypocrites.

As a matter of fact, I’m about to call my local senator on my iPhone and demand he votes against it. I also might send the other one a strongly worded email on my Mac. In all seriousness, feel welcome to do the same, and I urge everybody to please stay conscious of what’s going on around you.

n 1969, the Supreme Court handed down the ruling in the famous Tinker v. Des Moines case, in which it ruled that student speech can only be regulated if it causes a substantial interference Kathleen with the activities of Maxwell the students.

Correspondent However, recently, high schools and even lower federal courts have been taking unconstitutional actions to ban T-shirts of varying messages. From banning pro-gay rights shirts and anti-gay rights shirts, shirts with confederate f lags to shirts with American f lags and even shirts with the word “feminist,” high schools are overstepping their bounds by forcing students to censor their shirts. Under Tinker standards, there has to be evidence that a certain shirt or other expression is going to cause a disturbance.

These will not.

Quick, cheap and dirty bachelor pad thai INGREDIENTS: -Ramen Noodles -1 Egg -Peanut Butter -Sriracha hot sauce -Optional: Garlic powder, soy sauce, green onions, other vegetables

Sam Roberson Features Editor

In the humble ramen, long designated as a last resort meal for the college student, lies potential for meals that some may even call decent.

Bachelor pad thai is not only a catchy play on words, but also sets the tone for the dish because, like a bachelor pad, it may be thrown together with cheap materials at the last minute; however, it is still presentable and can even impress on certain occasions.

Bachelor pad thai may not be authentic Asian cuisine, but the strength of the meal is in its easiness to make and cheapness of the ingredi-

ents. One serving consists of less than $1 worth of ingredients. With egg and peanut butter added, this dish has about 18 grams of protein.

Depending on your standards, bachelor pad thai may still be a last-ditch attempt at dinner, but there is a lot of room for innovation.

The dish can be as simple as three ingredients, but with prior planning (or a decently stocked kitchen) the noodles can be spruced up with other f lavors and garnishes like vegetables and garlic to come closer to a more authentic pad thai. This recipe will focus on a simple version that most could find around a residence hall or mediocre pantry.

VICTORIA CROCKER/TECHNICIAN

With less than a dollar’s worth of ingredients per serving, bachelor pad thai is cheap and also an easy recipe to master.

DIRECTIONS:

4. Strain noodles and egg.

1. Boil water.

5. Add half of flavor packet and 2 tbsp of peanut butter. Allow peanut butter to melt over hot noodles and stir.

2. Add the ramen noodles and boil as directions state.

3. Crack an egg into the boiling noodles after they have softened. It should take about 1-2 minutes for it to cook.

6. Add Sriracha or hot sauce of choice to taste.

Bonus: Enhance the dish with flavor and garnish with garlic powder, soy sauce, parsley, carrots or green onions.

Students reflect on the Shack-A-Thon experience Katherine Hughes Correspondent

The 24th annual Shack-A-Thon brought NC State students together and raised more than $35,000 for Habitat for Humanity to help those in need of adequate housing.

“At this point, we’ve raised just over $35,000,” said Sarah Paluskiewicz, a senior studying polymer color chemistry and the president of the NC State’s chapter of Habitat for Humanity. “For Habitat of Wake County, $65,000 is enough money to sponsor one home.”

This year, more than 20 shacks were built in the Brickyard that had to be occupied by the members of each team at all times for a duration of five days. Students from the numerous organizations worked to raise money for the cause while having fun with their friends.

Swathi Krothapalli, a sophomore studying international studies and business, said manning the shack was a great bonding experience for the members of Alpha Phi Omega.

“It was never really empty when I was here,” Krothapalli said. “Everyone just kind of chilled together, and it was really fun.”

Bad weather held off for most of the week until Thursday evening when it started and continued to rain through Friday, the last day of the event. Students who were usually gathered around outside of the shacks tested the strength of their structure as they huddled inside and tried to stay dry and warm. Because of a night of heavy rain at last year’s event that caused Shack-A-Thon to temporarily shut down, one of the requirements this year was that the groups brought a tarp to cover their roofs so that they are well equipped for the rainy conditions. Thanks to this requirement, ShackA-Thon was able to stay up and running despite the rainy weather.

Another change made this year was that for the first time, participants were allowed to use paint to decorate the outside of their shacks.

“Walking around the shacks this year and seeing all of the creative designs just shows the creativity of all the students and has definitely made it a lot more visually appealing,” Cornwell said.

Students of Global Colors painted a picture of a world map on the outside of their shack and, as their fundraiser, asked students to put a thumbprint on their hometowns to show where NC State students were from.

Additional creative fundraisers included a pie-in-the-face contest hosted by the Parks Scholarship Shack and the Pi Beta Phi shack, where students could pet and

play with a kitten if they donated. Other organizations had fundraisers such as bake sales, live music and corn hole games.

The shack that usually stands out from the rest each year, constructed by the College of Natural Resources, switched from the log cabin theme to being made entirely out of bamboo. Deanna Metivier, a senior studying natural resources, said that ShackA-Thon is an important event for the college.

“A lot of people don’t know about the College of Natural Resources, and so we took this as a great opportunity to get our name out there and to unite the college,” she said.

The College of Natural Resources used that same approach in its fundraising by selling pieces that students, alumni and faculty created and contributed such as drawings, design cut-outs and bamboo pencil cups.

“Many students want to get involved, but they don’t know how, so giving them this opportunity and uniting the college for this awesome cause was definitely one of our main goals,” Metivier said.

Jackson Marley, a junior studying sustainable materials and technology, thought his experience also gave him a great perspective on what people who live in inadequate housing go through every day.

Several students from more than 20 organizations on campus hunker down in man-made shacks for NC State’s yearly tradition of Shack-A-Thon Tuesday. This year’s Shack-A-Thon aimed to raise $65,000 for Habitat for Humanity in order to construct a home. The shacks raise money by selling baked goods, raffle tickets, student-made products and a variety of other things.

“It’s fun to do it for a few days, kind of like camping with friends,” Marley said.

“But then it makes you think about people who actually live in housing like this and how we can afford to do a lot more for those people.”

In part because of the efforts of this event, there is something being done to help those

who are in need.

“The amount of work that is associated with a fundraiser like this is incredible, but it keeps getting bigger,” Paluskiewicz said.

“I think Shack-A-Thon crosses a line where it takes a whole student organization, or more, depending on each other to pull it off. That’s special.”

NC Pride Festival: LGBTQ pride in the South Alexandra Goodfred Correspondent

For more than 30 years, the NC Pride Festival in Durham has been celebrating gender expression and sexual orientation, inviting those who identify in the LGBTQ community to come together and celebrate who they are and acknowledge shared struggles.

Pride Fest is known for being bright, loud and flashy, but it is more than just spending a day partying. A history of discrimination and violence against those who do not identify as heterosexual, especially in more conservative Southern states, is apparent. The festival allows people with a range of sexual orientations and gender identities to congregate and express themselves, and it reminds the larger community of the need for tolerance and acceptance.

Pride Festival is a celebration of identity and expression of the self that rids participants of fear of repercussions, including physical attacks, arrests, firings from one’s job or exclusion from the community. According to Natalie Nguyen, the assistant director of NC State’s GLBT Center and utilizer of all gender pronouns, some people who identify as part of the LGBTQ community, especially those growing up in the South, are often either physically or emotionally isolated.

“Coming to Pride, it actually gives me affirmation there are others like me and that

they celebrate who I am, and we understand each other’s struggles, common struggles, and that there is a community out there — you’re not the only one,” Nguyen said.

Jessica Rundquist, the treasurer of the GLBT Community Alliance and a sophomore studying horticulture, believes that LGBTQ culture and identity are not inherited, nor are they aspects those in the community are raised with, but they bring about avenues to celebrate the history of people who built up the LGBTQ community and encourage people to be comfortable with themselves.

Rundquist, who uses feminine and neutral gender pronouns, also mentioned that Oct. 11 kicks off Diversity Week with National Coming Out Day, which, much like Pride, celebrates expressions of the self and acceptance of others.

Hannah Williamson, the vice president of the GLBT Community Alliance and a sophomore studying animal science, agrees that a large part of Pride is people finding community, which becomes even more important in the traditionally conservative and less accepting South.

“Whenever I go to Pride, I like the fact that everywhere else in the world you’re assumed to be straight and cisgendered, and whenever you go to Pride it’s kind of the opposite — people don’t necessarily assume that you are one orientation or gender.

It’s nice to step away from the cisheteronormativity,” Wil-

liamson said.

Rundquist said she enjoys going to Pride and hopes in the future it will be more inclusive and will grow in trans representation and accommodation for those with physical disabilities and mental illnesses.

“I want something to change where mental illness is also addressed because it’s very high relative to the rest of the population in the LGBT community, so it’d be nice to have a booth or a few booths with safe contact info and safe meeting spots for that,” Rundquist said.

Williamson agreed that

trans representation needs to grow within Pride, and though bisexual erasure is slowly being reduced, representation for non-monosexual identities should also be a priority. She has also found that although NC State may not be entirely supportive— citing instances of rude comments on YikYak after shirts with rainbow hearts promoting diversity and acceptance were given out—the majority of negative interactions are not interpersonal.

Nguyen said acceptance at NC State of LGBTQ individuals has been growing in recent years. “We’ve done

climate surveys every five to six years,” Nguyen said. “We know that those who identify as GLBT and alums have said that in years past they did not feel comfortable, and now with a center, more and more people are starting to become comfortable.”

The GLBT Center knows that students, faculty and staff struggle in different areas of the campus community. Nguyen said that their staff is always working to address those situations and trying to encourage people to attend their workshops such as Project Safe and Trans 101.

He emphasized that Pride is

an important part of the community, as it increases people’s exposure to other community members and allows them to see that LGBTQ people are their friends, family and coworkers; sexual orientation and gender expression are not a choice.

“I know for me personally, when I was an undergrad, you wouldn’t catch me dead in a GLBT center, and it’s just my coming out process,” Nguyen said. “It’s great to see it evolve every year and to see more and more people willing to come out and cheer on the parade.”

Who Are the Indigenous People of Palestine?

The Jewish people have lived in Palestine continuously for more than 3,000 years—far longer than any ethnic group.

Why do Arabs deny this history?

Many Arabs and anti-Israel activists claim Palestinians are the true indigenous people of the Holy Land, comparing their plight to that of Native Americans. Yet the ethnogenesis of the Jewish people—Hebrew language, Torah, Jewish religion, culture and self-identity—began in Palestine more than 1,800 years before Arabs arrived.

Doeren said. “Those two guys together are tough.”

Redshirt sophomore safety Josh Jones led the defense with six tackles — one for a loss.

Freshman defensive end Darian Roseboro led the team with two sacks and 2.5 tackles for a loss.

“I think we’re a lot better than we were last year at this point,” Doeren said. “We’re in the same position from a record’s standpoint, but a lot of [last year’s wins] were sloppy.

“The role that alumni play is huge,” he said. “They bring tradition back every single time they show up. They’re part of it. They created this, these guys and these girls. This is the biggest alumni group for women we’ve ever had. These kids go through a lot. We ask them to do a lot: school, swimming, weightlifting. It’s hard to be a

The team hopes to use the momentum from the unique season opener for its first official meet Friday with the AllNorth Carolina Invitational in Greensboro.

In its final game of non-conference play, the NC State football team dominated the South Alabama Jaguars in a 63-13 victory Saturday night in Mobile, Alabama.

The Wolfpack’s (4-0) performance was highlighted by its superb running game, which totaled 330 yards and seven total touchdowns. The 63-point performance is the most the Pack has scored in a game since 2009. The team hasn’t scored as many points on the road since 2002. The Wolfpack had a stellar game defensively as well, allowing just 45 yards rushing to the Jaguars (2-2).

South Alabama started off quickly and explosively, highlighted by a 47yard pass from quarterback Cody Clements to wide receiver Chris Lewis.

The Jaguars ended the drive with a touchdown pass to tight end Gerald Everett to jump out to an early 7-0 lead.

However, the Wolfpack quickly countered on the next drive, as junior running back Matt Dayes exploded around the corner on a jet sweep for a 77-yard touchdown run to tie the game 7-7. On the next drive, senior running back Shadrach Thornton ran between the tackles for a 39-yard touchdown rush to give NC State a 14-7 lead.

The Jags responded by throwing picks on back-to-back drives, with sophomore safety Germaine Pratt and redshirt sophomore linebacker Jerod Fernandez coming away with the big interceptions. The Pack capitalized both possessions, with two more

touchdown runs from Dayes of two and eight yards, respectively, to take a 28-7 lead.

On the ensuing drive, South Alabama marched down the field all the way to the NC State 1-yard line. However, the Wolfpack goal-line defense prevailed, holding the Jags to just a field goal to make it a 28-10 game.

Junior wide receiver Bra’Lon Cherry gave the Pack great field position on the kickoff, returning it all the way to the 50-yard line. Sophomore fullback Jaylen Samuels scored four plays later, taking a shuffle-pass 33 yards to pay dirt, giving State a 35-10 lead with 12:10 remaining in the first half.

State recovered it on the 25-yard line.

Redshirt senior quarterback Jacoby Brissett then threw a 2-yard touchdown pass to Samuels to put the Pack up 42-10 with 4:21 remaining in the half. Neither team scored in the remainder of the half.

Dayes had an outstanding first half, carrying the ball four times for 88 yards and three touchdowns and catching four passes for 27 yards.

Samuels dealt most of his damage on the receiving end, catching five passes for 84 yards and two touchdowns and carrying the ball twice for 28 yards. “[Dayes] is one of those players that steps up every Saturday,” Brissett said.

“He just makes plays, and everyone, including the tight ends and wide receivers on the outside, do a great job

blocking for him.”

The defense tallied three takeaways in the first half, more than it had in prior games this season.

The two teams traded possessions to start the second half. On its second drive, the Pack went 78 yards in seven plays, highlighted by a 4-yard rush by Thornton to extend its lead to 49-10.

The Jags countered with an eightplay, 33-yard drive that ended in a 49yard field goal to make it a 49-13 game.

With 3:29 remaining in the third quarter, redshirt freshman quarterback Jalan McClendon entered the game in relief of Brissett. Brissett finished the game 18-for-23 with 218 yards and two touchdowns. The drive

Women’s soccer narrowly defeated by Boston College at Dail Eliza Butts Correspondent

The NC State women’s soccer team took another hard loss Sunday afternoon, falling to Boston College 1-0 at Dail Soccer Stadium.

The Wolfpack (4-8-0, 0-3-0 ACC) is now on a four-game losing streak, coming off of a tough 3-0 loss at home on Thursday night against No.10 Virginia Tech. The Eagles (8-3-1, 2-0-1 ACC) came in off a 2-0 win against Louisville and a 1-1 tie against No.19 Duke Thursday night, entering the match with an edge of confidence over NC State.

The Pack defended its goal for 84 minutes, but in the 85th minute, Boston’s freshman midfielder Gaby Carreiro fired a 16-yard shot over the head of freshman goalkeeper Sydney Wootten and into the back of the net.

“For 85 minutes it wasn’t just 0-0,” said NC State head coach Tim Santoro. “We were better. We outshot them and had better chances. We tell them all the time that the next step

in this program is not just competing, but finding a way to get results.

In this league, playing well doesn’t ensure wins, and we learned that the hard way today. [The defense] is an evolving line, and this is an evolving team. So it’s unfortunate. This one hurts a little bit because we deserved a lot more than that.”

In the first 45 minutes of the game, NC State outshot Boston College 6-5, placing three of those shots on target.

The constant end-to-end play left neither team with an advantage going into the second half – a bit of déjà vu for the Wolfpack, which was in the same position at halftime Thursday night against the Virginia Tech Hokies.

The second half of Sunday’s matchup paralleled with the second half of Thursday’s game, as they were both met with a steady rainfall. However, unlike Thursday’s game, the Wolfpack did not allow its opponent three goals in the last 45 minutes of play.

“We were able to break down the

Six women’s wimmers compete in a circuit race as part of the first ever Wolfpack Games. In this race, swimmers completed five laps and had to be the first to jump out of the pool. The Wolfpack Games served as a way to introduce the swimming and diving team to the public on Friday in the Casey Aquatic Center.

After a highly successful 2014-2015 season, the NC State swimming and diving team started off its season this weekend with the first ever Wolfpack Games, held inside Casey Aquatic Center.

The meet was unlike any typical competition or the Red and White Scrimmages from years past. Instead, the Wolfpack Games offered a unique and exciting twist on the previous inner squad meet.

“We normally do a Red and White meet every season, and I feel like when the fans come it’s the same old, same old,” head coach Braden Holloway said.

“I wanted to spice it up and surprise them.”

Although typical events took place, several other competitions differentiated the meet from the past Red and White Scrimmages. The meet not only provided this season’s swimmers with a chance to compete, but it also engaged fans in a fun and entertaining environ-

ment.

“I wanted to tempt fans to get out here even more and get even more people because they don’t always know what it really is; more awareness on campus of our team,” Holloway said.

The team has seen much success during the past few years after a long stretch of struggle, but awareness of the team’s successes hasn’t quite followed suit.

“We have a lot of great videos that people put together for us, and I just wanted to start the season off a little different and with a lot of hype and just ramp it up right out of the gates,” Holloway said.

More than 800 students, fans, family and alumni came out to support the team and demonstrated how it has grown so much in the past few years under Holloway’s leadership.

“It was awesome,” Holloway said.

“I was actually shocked at how many people got here, especially with the rain.

It’s exciting to see the support that we have, and we’re going to need it this year.
