As  another  Black  History  Month  came  to  a  close,  UW-­Whitewater’s  Black  Student  Union  celebrated  its  45th  Anniversary  on  Feb.  27.  More  than  100  people  were  in  at-­ tendance  in  the  UC  Hamilton  room  for  dinner,  to  hear  alumni  speakers,  and  view  art  displays  and  pictures  of  BSU  throughout  its  45  years.  Chancellor  Richard  Telfer  said  originally  established  in  1969  dur-­ ing  the  Civil  Rights  Movement,  the  student  organization  has  now  been  around  longer  than  many  campus  buildings,  longer  than  some  of  our  departments  and  longer  than  most  of  our  employees. Since  1969,  BSU  has  strived  to  keep  the  organization  alive  in  order  to  advocate  African-­American  stu-­ dent  success.  ³:H ZHUH WKH ÂżUVW JHQHUDWLRQ RI African-­American  people  that  were  going  to  college,  and  we  were  trying  to  make  a  positive  change  among  the  races  when  hardly  anything  catered  to  our  culture,â€?  said  Charles  Robin-­ VRQ RQH RI WKH ÂżUVW EODFN VWXGHQWV to  graduate  from  UW-­W  during  the  Civil  Rights  Movement  and  the  only  student  representative  on  the  curric-­ ulum  committee  that  put  together  a  minor  of  African-­American  Studies.  When  asked  if  he  has  seen  a  dif-­ ference  in  Whitewater  since  BSU  was  founded  years  ago,  Robinson  mentioned  how  he  was  the  only  black  player  on  the  varsity  football Â

Speaker: Eyon Biddle cited ‘white rage’ for 2010 elections Continued  from  page  1 Kyle  Brooks  recorded  the  lecture  on  his  cell  phone  and  sent  the  video  to  media  outlets.  He  appeared  on  Fox  News  nationally  on  March  1  to  dis-­ cuss  the  events  that  happened. “I  was  shocked  and  disheart-­ ened  that  such  a  radical  person  could  speak  to  impressionable  students,â€?  Brooks  said.  Brooks  is  currently  serving  as  the  secretary  for  the  UW-­Whitewa-­ ter  College  Republicans. Brooks  said  Biddle’s  statements  about  the  Republican  party  being  racist  and  calling  Walker’s  voters  racist,  caught  him  off  guard.  â€œIt  makes  me  sad  that  this  man  would  want  to  polarize  politics  and  accuse  Republicans  of  racism,â€?  Brooks  said.  â€œEvery  Republican  I  know  is  not  racist  and  is  tolerant  of  everybody  they  meet.  They  believe  in  equality  for  all,  and  they  would  vote  for  anyone  regardless  of  their  race.â€?  Chair  of  the  UW-­Whitewater  College  Democrats,  Jonathan  Fera,  said  his  personal  reaction  to  the  speaker  was  he  is  a  man  who  comes  from  an  area  of  the  state  where  race  is  a  prominent  problem. “Whether  what  Biddle  said  is  aligned  with  your  own  ideology  or  not,  he  offered  a  viewpoint  shared  by  others  and  should  be  looked  at  as  such,  rather  than  as  a  liberal  bias  on  the  UW-­Whitewater  campus,â€?  he  said. The  College  Democrats  stand  with  any  individual’s  right  to  free  speech,  in  the  pursuit  to  further  intel-­ lectual  conversation  on  this  campus,  Fera  said.  â€œWhile  the  Democratic  Party  publicly  opposes  the  policies  in-­ stilled  by  Governor  Walker  and  the  Republican  Party,  the  goal  of  higher  education  is  to  offer  multiple  view-­ points  rather  than  just  one,â€?  Fera  said.  â€œBiddle  offered  a  passionate  testimony  about  the  state  of  Wiscon-­

Chair  of  the  College  Republi-­ cans  Madeline  Walton  said  she  was  VKRFNHG ZKHQ VKH Âż UVW VDZ WKH YLG eo.  Her  organization  shared  a  similar  reaction. “Obviously  as  Republicans,  we  are  upset  with  some  of  the  things  he  said,â€?  Walton  said.  â€œAs  an  education  major,  my  personal  point  was  that  there  was  no  counter  argument.â€? Chancellor  Richard  Telfer  asked  David  Travis,  Dean  of  the  College  of  Letters  &  Sciences,  to  look  into  the  situation.

Bicycles, sports gear and a cup of joe By Josh Hafemeister Copy  Editor

It’s  not  exactly  new  to  Whitewater,  but  many  people  may  not  think  of  BicycleWise  as  a  place  to  go  for  their  morning  coffee. In  addition  to  offering  services  for  bicy-­ clists  and  their  bicycles,  the  shop  sells  coffee  and  sports  equipment.  â€œA  lot  of  bicycle  people  love  coffee,â€?  owner  Liz  Sotherland  said.  â€œCycling  people,  they’re  real  coffee  people,  too.â€?  Sotherland  said  it  is  a  trend  for  bicycle  shops  to  have  coffee  shops  attached.  She  said  coffee  has  a  lot  of  good  qualities  for  athletes,  including  antioxidants.  BicycleWise  &  Sports  Fitness  opened  April  28,  2001  across  the  street  from  its  current  location.  John  and  Liz  Sotherland  planned  to  open  a  coffee  bar,  but  the  build-­ ing  did  not  afford  the  space  they  needed. When  the  building  at  1155  W.  Main  St.  became  available,  they  took  the  opportunity  and  moved  BicycleWise  &  Sports  Fitness  across  the  street.  Their  new  location  opened  Feb.  5,  2013.  The  coffee  John  and  Liz  So-­ therland  now  serve,  Colectivo  Coffee,  is  made  in  Milwaukee.

“Its  not  stress  that  kills  us,  it  is  our  reaction  to  it.â€?

Students  should  use  resources  to  manage  stress Royal Purple Editorial  Staff  Opinion

In  a  recent  study,  the  American  Psycho-­ logical  Association  found  the  most  stressed  age  group  was  young  adults  ages  18  to  33.  Stressors  like  grades,  graduation,  the  state  of  the  job  market  and  balancing  it  all  with  a  social  life  can  cause  a  harmful  amount  of  anxiety.  Young  adults  have  good  reason  to  be  stressed  out.  The  most  troublesome  part  of  the  study  was  49  percent  of  young  adults  said  they  are  not  handling  their  stress  correctly. Luckily  for  UW-­Whitewater  students,  our  university  offers  an  array  of  different  programs  to  help  students  han-­ dle  their  physical  and  men-­ tal  strain,  and  more  students  should  utlilze  these  options. University  Health  &  Counseling  Services,  for  ex-­ ample,  provide  coun-­ seling  to  students  in  either  individual  or  group  sessions.  These  group  counseling  sessions  include  groups  such  as  Alcohol-­ ics  Anonymous,  Sexual  Assault  Survivors’  group,  Women’s  Therapy,  and  Understanding Â

Self  and  Others. According  to  the  UHCS  website,  indi-­ vidual  counseling  can  be  used  to  help  with  stress  management,  anxiety,  depression  and  a  host  of  other  stressors  common  to  college  students. In  cases  of  emergency,  such  as  suicidal  thoughts  or  other  crisis  situations,  UHCS  al-­ lows  students  to  come  in  and  have  a  same-­ day  appointment Students  also  can  be  counseled  for  free  in  the  Winther  Counseling  Lab,  which  is  staffed  by  students  working  toward  their  master’s  degree  in  counselor  education.  The  sessions  are  supervised  by  licensed  counselor  educa-­ tion  faculty. Students  should  use  these  programs  without  hesitation  because,  on  top  of  helping  manage  stress  levels,  these  programs  are  in-­ cluded  in  tuition  costs  whether  you  use  them  or  not. According  to  the  university  website,  every  undergraduate  student  pays  a  health  center  fee  of  $88.67  in  his  or  her  tuition.  This  fee  allows Â

UHCS  to  provide  most  medical  and  wellness  services  to  students  free  of  charge. Another  way  the  university  helps  stu-­ dents  manage  their  stress  is  through  the  Wil-­ liams  Center. A  study  by  a  group  of  researchers  from  the  University  of  Illinois  found  exercise  and  physical  activity  improve  general  brain  func-­ tion,  mainly  the  memory  and  learning  sec-­ tions. Although  the  membership  to  the  Wil-­ liams  Center  is  not  free,  the  membership  fee  ZRUNV RXW WR DERXW D PRQWK 2WKHU Âż W ness  memberships  may  cost  anywhere  from  $25  to  $50  a  month.  Along  with  cardio  ma-­ chines  and  weightlifting  equipment,  the  Wil-­ liams  Center  has  programs  such  as  indoor  cycling,  core  workout  classes  and  yoga. According  to  the  National  Center  for  Complementary  and  Alternative  Medicine,  practicing  yoga  on  a  regular  basis  has  been  proven  to  KHOS Âż JKW VWUHVV DQG GH pression. Â

The  university  offers  classes  for  credit  on  yoga  and  stress  management.  Two  dif-­ ferent  levels  of  yoga  and  stress  management  classes  are  offered,  as  well  as  a  combined  â€œyoga/stress  reeducationâ€?  class.  The  course  is  described  as  helping  students  learn  how  to  control  their  stress  through  certain  yoga  exercises. Students  struggling  with  stress  and  anxi-­ ety  in  college  should  know  the  long-­term  risks  it  can  have  on  their  body.  Chronic  stress  can  increase  blood  pres-­ sure,  which  is  a  large  risk  factor  for  heart  disease  and  stroke.  Prolonged  stress  also  makes  the  immune  system  less  effective,  making  you  more  susceptible  to  disease,  par-­ ticularly  infection.  If  not  managed  correctly,  stress  also  can  cause  issues  in  the  intestines  or  weight  gain,  according  to  the  University  of  Maryland  Medical  Center. Most  students  attend  college  to  give  WKHPVHOYHV PRUH RSSRUWXQLWLHV IRU D IXOÂż OO ing  life  after  graduation,  so  students  need  to  use  the  resources  available  to  keep  them-­ selves  healthy  to  be  able  to  enjoy  the  chanc-­ es  they  make  for  themselves. Students  looking  to  schedule  an  appoint-­ ment  at  UHCS  can  call  (262)  472-­1300,  and  to  schedule  an  appointment  in  the  Winther  Counseling  Lab,  students  should  call  (262)  472-­2842.

Lack  of  student  interest  in  voting  a  concern Âł0\ YRWH GRHVQÂśW PDWWHU´ , Âż QG WKDW WKLV is  the  reason  I  hear  the  most  when  other  col-­ lege  students  tell  me  why  they  do  not  vote  or  even  register  to  vote.  Many  students  voice  their  political  views  in  the  classroom,  in  so-­ cial  gatherings  and  over  social  media.  How-­ ever,  only  a  small  percentage  will  vote  in  a  Presidential  Election,  and  an  even  smaller  percentage  will  vote  in  a  Congressional  Election.  According  to  the  U.S.  Census  Bureau,  the  age  group  with  the  lowest  percentage  of  voters  is  the  18  to  24  year  old  group.  In  data  from  the  elections  from  1996  to  2010  this  age  group  had  the  lowest  percentage  of  voters  for  every  election  during  these  years.  In  the  2008  Presidential  Election  58.2%  of  the  total Â

voting  population  voted.  However,  only  43.8  percent  of  people  ages  18  to  24  voted  in  that  election.  The  2010  Congressional  Election  had  an  even  greater  difference.  Of  the  total  population  41.8  percent  voted,  but  only  19.2  percent  of  the  youngest  age  group  voted.  The  group  with  the  highest  voter  turnout  is  the  65  years  and  older  group.  In  the  2008  Presiden-­ tial  Election  68.1  percent  of  the  group  voted,  and  in  the  2010  Congressional  Election  58.9  percent  of  the  group  voted.    This  is  concerning  because  the  group  with  the  lowest  voter  turnout  will  be  affect-­ ed  by  results  at  the  polls.  The  policies  and  decisions  that  would  be  implemented  will  have  the  largest  impact  on  the  lives  of  young  adults.  This  young  adult  age  group  will  be Â

entering  the  workforce  and  beginning  to  be  more  involved  in  society,  but  yet  the  political  involvement  is  much  lower  than  any  other  group.  Our  generation  should  be  educating  ourselves  on  political  issues  and  going  out  to  vote  during  election  time.  By  registering  to  vote  and  going  out  to  vote  this  can  encourage  people  to  do  their  own  research  on  the  can-­ didates  for  the  election.  However,  your  vote  will  not  tip  the  scale  at  a  national  election,  but  if  young  people  across  the  nation  start  showing  up  at  the  polls  together  we  could  have  a  large  impact  on  the  outcome  and  the  decisions  made  for  our  countries  future.  Â

Marine’s  new  mission:  brave  rough  waters By Amanda Ramirez Staff  Writer

M

any  Americans  recognize  â€œSemper  Fiâ€?  as  the  motto  of  the  U.S.  Marine  Corps.,  but  not  everyone  knows  the  meaning  of  the  phrase.  6HPSHU )LGHOLV  is  a  Latin  term  that  translates  to  â€œalways  faith-­ ful.â€?  U.S.  Marine  Nic  Doucette,  a  junior  at  UW-­  Whitewater,  said  he  plans  to  demonstrate  his  faithfulness  to  fellow  Marines  by  kayaking  the  Mississippi  River  from  source  to  sea  on  May  31,  2014,  to  raise  $25,000  for  the  Semper  Fi  Fund,  a  charity  that  provides  assistance  to  injured  members  of  the  U.S.  armed  forces  and  thier  families.  The  journey  will  take  approximately  two  and  a  half  months.  Doucette “It  means  a  lot  that  people  I  directly  know  are  getting  the  help,â€?  Doucette  said  about  his  fundraising  efforts.  Doucette  joined  the  Marine  Corps  when  he  was  20  years  old.  He  served  active  duty  from  January  2008  to  November  2011  in  Twenty-­ nine  Palms,  Calif.,  and  was  eventually  deployed  to  southern  Afghanistan  to  conduct  a  mission  known  as  â€œroute  clearance.â€?  On  Nov.  26,  2010,  two  of  Doucette’s  fellow  Marines,  Sgt.  Ga-­ briel  Martinez  and  Cpl.  Justin  Gaert-­ ner,  stepped  on  separate  pressure-­ plate  activated  Improvised  Explosive  Devices  (IEDs)  while  using  their  metal  detectors  to  locate  the  explosives. Â

Both  Martinez  and  Gaertner  lost  their  legs  and  suffered  other  life-­ threatening  injuries.  Since  the  incident,  both  have  recovered  and  received  sup-­ port  from  several  generous  charities. Doucette  asked  Martinez  and  Gaertner  which  charity  had  played  a  large  role  in  supporting  them  and  their  families  throughout  their  rehabilita-­ tion.  Doucette  said  both  replied  the  Semper  Fi  Fund.  After  returning  home,  Doucette  said  he  developed  an  interest  in  outdoor  sports  as  a  way  to  experience  adventure  in  his  daily  life.  Doucette  wanted  to  kayak  the  entire  length  of  the  Mississippi  River,  2,552  miles,  from  Lake  Itasca,  Minn.,  to  the  Gulf  of  Mexico.  But  Doucette  said  he  did  not  want  to  embark  on  this  journey  without  cause.  He  wanted  his  trip  to  have  a  positive  impact  on  the  lives  of  fellow  Marines.  Doucette’s  friend,  U.S.  Marine  Gabe  Vasquez,  will  accompany  Doucette  on  the  journey.  Doucette  said  his  goal  is  to  raise  $25,000  for  the  Semper  Fi  Fund,  and  he  will  not  utilize  any  funds  to  sub-­ sidize  his  trip.  All  donations  will  go  directly  to  the  Semper  Fi  Fund.  The  Semper  Fi  Fund  was  created  by  a  group  of  Marine  Corps  spouses  LQ 7KH RUJDQL]DWLRQ SURYLGHV Âż nancial  and  emotional  support  through  programs  such  as  adaptive  housing  and  trans-­ portation,  education  and  career  transi-­

Professors  collaborate  with  students Chamber  Orchestra  concert  showcases  talents  By Abrielle Backhaus Arts  &  Rec  Editor

By Signe Trewyn Staff  Writer

In  the  Chamber  Orchestra,  professors  are  not  only  educators;Íž  they  are  partners. Instead  of  the  usual  professor-­ to-­student  format,  students  and  professors  play  side-­by-­side. Chamber  Orchestra  Director  Christopher  Ramaekers  said  he  enjoys  the  spotlight  while  working  together  with  his  students. “I  really  enjoy  collaborating  Ramaekers with  professors  and  students  while  directing  the  orchestra,â€?  Ramaekers  said. The  chamber  orchestra  puts  on  a  few  concerts  each  semester  with  the  goal  of  incorporating  stu-­ dents’  and  professors’  different  techniques.  The  professors  and  students  work  together  to  create  different  pieces  with  varying  styles  of  music,  Ramaekers  said.  â€œIt  is  appealing  to  see  students  perform  along-­ side  their  professors,â€?  Ramaekers  said.

Leslie  LaMuro,  associate  director  of  public  events,  said  the  audience  will  be  able  to  feel  the  enthusiasm  from  the  performance.  â€œThere  is  a  lot  of  energy  put  forth  towards  the Â

performance  because  of  the  students,â€?  LaMuro  said.  Some  of  the  instruments  that  will  be  played  are  WKH YLROLQ YLROD FHOOR Ă€ XWH DQG EDVV Pianist  Mackenzie  Wiley,  a  senior,  has  been  per-­ forming  with  the  chamber  orchestra  for  three  years.  â€œI  hope  the  audience  accepts  the  fact  that  the  pieces  are  different  than  the  typical  pieces  that  are  performed  in  an  orchestra,â€?  Wiley  said. Wiley  said  she  enjoys  the  ability  to  not  only  learn  from  her  professors  in  the  classroom  but  to  play  next  to  them  in  the  chamber  orchestra. With  a  goal  to  graduate  with  a  degree  in  music,  Wiley  said  her  professors  inspire  her  to  stick  with  her  goal.  ³0\ SURIHVVRUV KDYH LQĂ€ XHQFHG my  music  pursuit  heavily,â€?  Wiley  Wiley said.  â€œEvery  single  professor  I’ve  KDG KDV KDG D YHU\ SRVLWLYH LQĂ€ XHQFH WKH\ DUH LQ credible.â€?  Wiley  has  performed  with  other  professors,  in-­ cluding  Benjamin  Whitcomb  and  Leanne  League,  in  the  symphony  orchestra.  â€œWhat  I’ve  learned  most  about  music  is  that  it  has  its  own  message,  and  a  performer  has  their  own  personal  way  of  conveying  that  message,â€?  Wiley  said.  The  free  concert  will  be  held  at  3  p.m.  Sunday,  March  6,  in  Light  Recital  Hall  at  the  Greenhill  Cen-­ ter  of  the  Arts.

’Hawks  fall  short,  still  make  NCAA’s Commentary The  UW-­Whitewater  women’s  basketball  team  may  not  have  won  the  WIAC  Tournament  this  past  weekend,  but  falling  short  did  not  keep  head  coach  Keri  Carollo’s  team  out  of  reaching  the  NCAA  Tournament. “They  [UW-­Superior]  played  with  a  lot  of  heart,  passion  and  a  sense  of  urgency,â€?  Carollo  said.  â€œI  didn’t  see  that  in  us  tonight,  and  I  don’t  know  why.â€? WIAC  Tournament On  Feb.  27,  the  Warhawks  hosted  the  No.  5-­seeded  UW-­Su-­ SHULRU <HOORZMDFNHWV LQ WKH 6HPLÂż nal  of  the  WIAC  Tournament.  The  previous  four  WIAC  Tournaments  were  won  by  the  UW-­Stevens  Point  Pointers,  and  each  of  those  four  victories  were  against  the  â€™Hawks. This  time  around,  the  War-­ hawks  had  the  No.  1  seed  and  were  hosting  throughout  the  tournament  as  long  as  the  team  Commentary by kept  winning.  Kevin Cunningham After  the  open-­ Sports Editor ing  few  minutes  against  the  Yellowjackets,  the  â€™Hawks  saw  themselves  trailing  on  the  scoreboard,  9-­2. 7KH UHVW RI WKH Âż UVW KDOI ZHQW the  Yellowjackets’  way  as  well,  and  UW-­Superior  went  on  an  11-­3  run  to  end  the  half,  leading  41-­25  at  halftime.  In  the  second  half,  the  War-­ hawks  were  able  to  trim  the  lead  but  never  got  close  enough  to  cre-­ ate  doubt  in  the  minds  of  the  Yel-­ lowjackets’  players. “We  just  could  not  get  that  stop,â€?  Carollo  said.  â€œEvery  time  we  got  the  lead  down  to  10  they  would  get  a  bucket.  I  felt  like  if  we  could  cut  it  to  eight  we  could  turn  it  around.â€?  The  game  ended,  84-­63,  in  fa-­ vor  of  UW-­Superior  and  for  the  ¿ IWK VWUDLJKW VHDVRQ WKH Âś+DZNV fell  short  in  the  WIAC  title  game. Senior  point  guard  Kaitlyn  Thill  scored  16  points,  dished  out  seven  assists  and  recorded  two  steals,  but  the  team  could  not  over-­ come  its  31  percent  shooting  from  WKH Âż HOG ,Q WKH Âż QDO 1R VHHG 8: Oshkosh  defeated  the  Yellowjack-­ ets,  75-­69.  With  the  win,  the  Titans  earned  the  WIAC’s  automatic  bid  into  the  NCAA  Tournament. NCAA  Tournament “Selection  Mondayâ€?  in  Di-­ vision-­III  basketball  took  place  March  3,  but  for  Carollo,  awaiting  an  at-­large  bid  was  not  as  nerve-­ wrecking  as  one  would  think. “I’m  on  the  national  commit-­ tee,  so  I  knew  last  night  [that  we  were  in  the  tournament],â€?  Carollo  said.  While  Carollo’s  on  the  com-­ mittee,  she  said  she  gets  taken  off  the  call  that  is  made  to  members  around  the  country  when  discuss-­

ing  which  teams  are  placed  where.  In  Lehman’s  terms,  she  had  no  say  in  whom  or  where  UW-­Whitewater  played  in  the  NCAA  Tournament. In  D-­III  women’s  basketball,  the  brackets  are  much  like  the  brackets  in  D-­I.  There  are  four  regions  with  16  teams  in  each,  and  within  those  16  teams,  there  are  four  â€œpodsâ€?  where  RQH WHDP KRVWV WKH Âż UVW DQG VHF ond-­round  games.  Because  the  UW-­Whitewater  men’s  basketball  team  is  hosting  WKH Âż UVW WZR URXQGV RI WKH 1&$$ Tournament,  it  is  technically  im-­ possible  for  the  women  to  host  WKH Âż UVW ZHHNHQG XQOHVV WKH PHQÂśV WHDP KDV RQH RI WZR SRVVLEOH Âż UVW round  byes. Since  the  men  did  not  receive  the  bye,  the  women  knew  they  were  going  to  have  to  play  on  the  road. Once  the  brackets  were  re-­ vealed,  the  women  found  out  they  would  have  to  travel  to  St.  Paul,  Minn.,  to  take  on  the  Concordia-­ Moorhead  Cobbers  (MN)  (21-­5  overall). If  the  Warhawks  defeat  the  Cobbers  on  March  7,  they  will  ad-­ vance  to  the  second  round  to  take  on  the  winner  of  St.  Thomas  (MN),  (24-­4  overall)  who  is  the  hosting  team,  and  Loras  College  (19-­8  overall)  on  March  8. “We  had  two  practices  after  the  Superior  game,  and  they’re  proba-­ bly  two  of  the  best  practices  we’ve  had  all  year,â€?  Carollo  said.  â€œThe  team  was  excited,  energized,  and  I  think  they  have  learned  a  tough  les-­ son  that  we  can’t  take  anything  for  JUDQWHG 7KH\ GHÂż QLWHO\ IHHO OLNH they  have  something  to  prove.â€? When  analyzing  the  way  the  Warhawks  play,  they  often  times  like  to  put  pressure  on  their  oppo-­ nents,  forcing  more  than  21  turn-­ overs  per  game. Looking  at  the  Cobbers’  roster  and  statistics  regarding  ball  con-­ trol,  the  team  has  smaller  guards  but  bigger  forwards  up  front.  The  Cobbers’  leading  rebound-­ ers  stand  at  6-­foot-­4,  5-­foot-­10  and  6-­foot-­1,  respectively.  The  team  from  Moorhead,  Minn.,  also  aver-­ ages  turning  the  ball  over  16  times  per  contest. Âł2XU SUHVVXUH LV GHÂż QLWHO\ something  that  is  an  advantage  for  us  once  we  start  playing  teams  that  aren’t  used  to  our  style  of  play,â€?  Carollo  said.  â€œI’m  hoping  that  our  pressure  defense  and  our  quick-­ ness  can  help  us.â€? Looking  down  the  road  in  the  tournament,  a  Sweet  16  matchup  against  a  common  foe  in  UW-­Os-­ hkosh  is  possible.  If  the  â€™Hawks  reach  the  Elite  Eight,  a  rematch  of  last  year’s  na-­ tional  championship  game  against  DePauw  University  looks  plau-­ sible. When  asked  what  the  one  thing  was  the  Warhawks  have  to  make  sure  they  do  in  order  to  have  suc-­ cess  in  the  tournament,  Carollo  de-­ livered  a  simple  message. “Survive  and  advance.â€?
