Harvey Dunn gallery commemorates 100th armistice anniversary LAUREN FRANKEN Managing Editor

A

t 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, 1918, after more than 8.5 million military casualties, the Allies of World War I and Germany ceased fire, effectively ending what had been the bloodiest U.S. conflict up to that point.

One hundred years after the armistice that ended World War I, the South Dakota Art Museum is commemorating the anniversary with paintings and illustrations

by South Dakota war artist Harvey Dunn.

The War Works exhibit features art from Dunn’s time as a war artist, as well as works he created before and after the war.

Last year, the collection was on display from March 31 to Aug. 27 to commemorate the anniversary of the United States’ entrance into World War I on April 6, 1917.

The War Works exhibit shown in remembrance of the armistice is larger than last April’s display because it contains seven of Dunn’s frontline illustrations on loan from the National Museum of American History in Washington, D.C.

Second passive project awaits sale of first LAUREN FRANKEN Managing Editor

N

ot long after the Oct. 15 ribbon cutting for Brookings’ first passive house, graduate students in the Department of Architecture are already drafting plans for a second energy-efficient, single-family home that will sit just north of the first.

The first house, which sits at 902 3rd Ave., is built to Passive House standards — which includes thickly insulated walls and double or triple paned windows.

The regulations ensure the house is airtight to minimize the need for electric heating and cooling systems and higher air quality.

Though plans are already in the works, construction on a second passive house cannot begin until the first house is sold.

The three bedroom, two and a half bath house is currently priced at $379,000.

Small-scale models of the first and second passive houses. The new passive house (L) will be built directly to the north of the first passive house. Construction on the second house will begin when the first house sells.

“The students are designing the project under the assumption that at some point we’ll sell the house, and hopefully it happens quickly and we can get going on the next project, but we’re going to have to wait for it to sell,” said Charles Macbride, the professor of architecture who over-

saw the class that designed the first passive project in 2016.

A passive houses costs, on average, 10 to 12 percent more to build, but monthly energy costs are significantly lower for residents.

“The hope is that new homes are going to be built

with better energy efficiency because it not only saves the homeowner money, but it saves on environmental demand,” Macbride said. “It’s designed to take advantage of sunlight, and it’s designed with certain types of equipment so that it doesn’t use energy that it shouldn’t.

Passive houses are designed in an attempt to reach net zero, which means the energy input and energy output of the house equal out.

Instructor of architecture Robert Arlt is overseeing the studio of students designing the second passive house, which he said will combine stylistic elements from the houses it sits between.

“It becomes kind of, in a sense, a Venn diagram of what the two houses look like,” Arlt said.

The architecture department chose the locations for the passive houses with the intent of revitalizing neighborhoods instead of building in the newer developments on the outskirts of Brookings.

“It represents a lot more than just the passive house to us. It’s a house that shows we believe reinvestment in established neighborhoods is something that needs to happen,” Macbride said.

Arts Council, SDSU host Festival of Trees for holiday season WREN MURPHY Reporter One tell-tale sign of holiday season is decorated trees and with the Brookings Arts Council (BAC) and the Student Union putting on festivals of trees, the holidays will feel close.

The two separate festivals showcase trees decorated by local and student organizations to spread holiday spirit across campus and the community.

This year for the 32nd

BAC festival of trees, 18 organizations or individuals registered and will begin decorating their trees on Nov. 14. They’re open for the public Nov. 24 and remain open until Dec. 22 at the BAC building, located on Fourth Street.

Other activities are on Nov. 29 all lead up to the parade, which is scheduled for 7 p.m.

On the day of the parade, students can visit the Children’s Museum of South Dakota for some dachshund-

themed holiday cookies, matching the dog-centric theme of events this year.

Kuhlman hopes to see more SDSU students come to the tree showcase and participate in the festivities.

“It’s a great way for them to get connected to the community,” Kuhlman said.

For students that would rather stick to campus festivities, the Festival of Trees in The Union is an on-campus chance to see decorated trees.

The event will showcase

around 45 trees decorated by various student groups.

Applications to get a tree are due Monday, Nov. 19. There’s a $35 registration fee. The trees will be displayed by Nov. 29 for SDSU’s open house, which will feature Santa Claus.

“We like to give people the feeling of Christmas and a homey feeling during finals,” Miranda McMullen, a senior and student manager for Information Exchange said, “and give a chance for student organizations to display

themselves.”

Some members from Student’s Association are decorating a tree this year, something Vice President Spencer Harwood said is a good opportunity for their organization.

“It gives a chance to do some team bonding outside the senate together. We’re able to capture our group’s personality on the tree,” Harwood said.

Robert Escamilla and Miles Savedra rehearse for ‘Woyzeck’ on Nov. 13 in Doner Auditorium.

State Theatre says farewell to Doner with ‘Woyzeck’ BRIANNA SCHREURS Editor-in-Chief Knock on wood, this will be State Theatre’s last performance in Doner Auditorium before moving into the newly expanded Performing Arts Center.

Doner’s send-off show is the famous fragmented, unfinished and unique drama “Woyzeck”

by Georg Büchner. Director J.D. Ackman said he decided to put on the show after his class showed great interest in it.

The play is about Franz Woyzeck, an army barber who suffers psychological humiliation by his captain and painful physical experimentation by his doctor to make extra money for Marie, his common-law wife, and their child. Woyzeck is jealous of Marie’s affair with a drum major.

Filled with jealousy, he erupts into violence.

“It’s remarkably contemporary, I think,” Ackman said. “This play is an examination of our social responsibility and makes you ask: what makes a person do that? It brings this notion of crime and mental illness down to a single person.”

“Woyzeck” is based on the 1812 case of Johann Christian Woyzeck who murdered a widow he was living with.

Ackman said this show is “unlike anything Doner’s seen.”

He said that’s largely due to the commitment of the 28-student cast and crew.

The cast spent more than 80 hours on this show, which is more time than State Theatre usually spends on its shows. The extra time was spent analyzing and discussing each scene and different ways to bring the show to life through the set and props.

“We did a lot of talking. Usually, the cast of the play doesn’t have artistic input but they did this time,” Ackman said. “Some of the ideas were so weird.”

Students discussed everything from using extreme makeup, masks or an inanimate object as Woyzeck’s baby. None of the sound effects are prerecorded and will be made by the actors on stage.

Rebecca Kruse, a junior theatre major playing Marie, said it was difficult to fit all the ideas together.

“We definitely didn’t use all the ideas, but sitting together and discussing the show and all our ideas really helped all of the cast to develop and understand our characters,” Kruse said.

“Woyzeck” will be performed at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 28-Dec. 1; and at 2 p.m., Dec. 2 in Doner Auditorium.

Consider right timing for pets while in college EMMA ANDERSON Lifestyles Reporter

W

Collegian graphic by SUHYEON HAN

hile in college the idea of getting a new puppy or kitten can sound like a great idea. They are cute, cuddly, make great Instagram posts and can provide emotional support.

Pets also require a substantial amount of attention and are a big time commitment. So, it is important to evaluate whether you are really ready for one while in college. For junior journalism major Natalie Morris, it took years of wanting a dog before she felt like the timing was right for her to get her Toy Poodle, Theo.

“Obviously living in dorms, I knew that getting a pet was not an option for me.

So, when I finally moved into an apartment that was pet-

friendly, I knew it was the right time,” Morris said.

For fifth-year senior nutrition dietetics and biology double major Allison Haltli, figuring out where she was allowed to have her cat, Mr. Finnegan, was one of the toughest parts.

“Not many places allow pets, so that is something I wish I would have known earlier,” Haltli said.

However, having the right living space is not the only thing to think about when considering getting a pet.

Pets also take a lot of time away from studying, hanging out away from home and general free time that you might have usually had because your new furry friend requires your attention and training, especially while they are still young.

“I feel like potty training is usually the number one problem for everyone,” Morris

said. “Theo does well, but it took a lot of work to get him there. Even still, he sometimes has accidents and I have to remember he is just a baby.”

“It is a time commitment, but it can also be so worth it.”

ALLIE MILLER Senior agricultural science major

Having a pet while in school can sometimes conflict with the busy schedule that being a student generates.

Allie Miller, a senior agricultural science major, adopted her Mini Lop rabbit, Jack, from the humane society about a year ago.

Miller said she had a hard

time leaving him when she leaves for long periods of time because of classes.

Although it takes a lot of work, having a pet can be extremely rewarding and enjoyable.

“He [Mr. Finnegan] brings such a positive vibe to the rooms and he is there when sometimes no one else is,” Haltli said.

The bottom line is pets should be well thought out before they become a part of your life because they take a lot of responsibility. If you get a pet before you’re ready it can lead to neglect or having to give it away which can be avoided.

“Just because they are a cute puppy, or any kind of animal, doesn’t mean they can’t make messes and be naughty sometimes. It is a time commitment, but it can also be so worth it,” Miller said.

Braden brings out ‘unity’ in community on campus DANIELLE SONS Reporter Angela Braden is blind.

During her talk Thursday, Nov. 8 in The Union, Braden discussed the trials she has faced since losing her sight and how her perspective has changed because of it.

At the age of 10, while playing, learning and doing everything an otherwise “normal” child would do, Braden found out she had glaucoma, a diagnosis that would go on to drastically change her life.

Doctors told Braden she had already lost her optic vision completely. She underwent fourteen eye surgeries in an attempt to restore her vision but eventually saw the

sun for the last time during her high school graduation.

Tough days were ahead as Braden tried coming to terms with her blindness.

“As I was sitting in my room, literally in the dark, I thought how the world was moving on without me,” she said.

Braden said her eyes opened. Not the ones attached to her head, but the ones in her heart. She decided to overcome her loss of sight, and not let that define what she could do as a person.

“I made a choice to get out of the grave I had dug myself into and start living the life that I knew I was intended to live,” Braden said.

She asked the audience to do an exercise that opened more than a few eyes to the implications and unnecessary act of judging someone without ever having spoken to them.

Braden started by listing five different types of people and asked the audience to write down words that came to mind when they heard them.

The five were a person in a wheelchair, a veteran with a disability, an African American teenage male, a middle-aged white man and Hispanic women.

Once Braden had gone through all five people, she had her audience present some of the things they had

thought of. Almost all of the words and phrases people had written were stereotypes.

Braden said stereotypes don’t apply to everyone, and judging others based on an idea in our heads doesn’t form grounds for a healthy community.

“You don’t stumble into unity, you come into it,” she said.

She challenged the audience to gain different perspectives, something she said will make a community grow in the long run.

During the Q&A, an audience member asked Braden why she talks to college students all over the country.

“I feel I am charged with sharing my experiences so

that today when you leave here, you can employ empathy, and make the world a better place,” she said.

The resounding quote brought an impactful end to Braden’s talk and left the audience with something to think about for the future.

WHO IS HARVEY DUNN? From: Manchester, S.D. Born: March 8, 1884 Education: South Dakota State University, Brandywine School (Del.) Published in: Collier’s Weekly, Harper’s Magazine, Saturday Evening Post, Scribner’s Displays: S.D. Art Museum, Dakota Discovery Museum, Smithsonian Institute, National Museum of American History Harvey Dunn during his time with the American Expeditionary Forces.

Died: Oct. 29, 1952

From A1

WWI “It’s a rare opportunity — it has been 16 years since we had them here and it will probably be a long time again before you can see those kind of pieces that were made right there while he was in service,” said Jodi Lundgren, coordinator of exhibitions for the South Dakota Art Museum.

Before commissioning with the American Expeditionary Forces, Dunn attended South Dakota State University, which at the time, was called the South Dakota Agricultural College. His roots in South Dakota led him back to the state a few times after the war, which is ultimately why the South Dakota Art Museum came to own so much of his collection.

Dunn was invited to showcase 40 of his paintings at the annual Old Settlers Day in DeSmet, South Dakota — an exhibit that was only supposed to be active for a few weeks.

Thousands of people expressed interest in the exhibit, and it remained active throughout the entirety of the summer.

“The reality is that Dunn was just so moved by the response in his home state of people to his works that he ended up donating that collection to the people of South Dakota,” Lundgren said.

SDSU became the caretaker of the paintings in 1950, and for 20 years Dunn’s works hung on the walls of the Student Union.

In 1970, after much deliberation about where to

build the South Dakota Art Museum, Brookings was ultimately chosen because of South Dakota State’s collection of so much of Dunn’s art.

Since then, the collection has tripled in size to nearly 140 works, which Lundgren said makes it possible to see the effects of war on Dunn’s artistic style.

“When he went to war he said that he wanted to depict the blood and the loss — he really was into depicting the spirit of subject matter,” Lundgren said. “Not just the picture, but really the humanity of it.”

Dunn’s art rotates through different exhibits every three to six months, and his War Works collection will be on display until Feb. 9, 2019.

Admission into the museum is free.

EDITORIAL There is a lack of knowledge surrounding GAF strategic plan.

T

he general activity (GAF) fee is a mandatory percredit-hour fee that directs funds toward activities the general population of the student body would participate in and benefit from.

Drafting a GAF strategic plan has been at the forefront of the Students’ Association’s priorities this semester. SDSU does a new strategic plan every five years, unlike a lot of other

universities that don’t draft a plan at all.

At the end of October, SA sent out a survey to get a general idea of where students want their general activity fee to go.

A few of the options included: later Student Union hours, increased counseling services, athletic department deficit and Wellness Center activity pass.

We, at The Collegian, believe the GAF strategic plan survey speaks volumes to

SA’s ability and willingness to give students a voice.

Now that surveys are in, the steering committee will decipher what students are most interested in and use those results to draft the strategic plan.

SA will amend or approve the first draft, and from there it will be sent up to University Activity Fee and Budget Committee, who will vote for or against the first draft.

Upon approval, SDSU

President Barry Dunn will officially stamp the strategic plan and send it to the Board of Regents.

GAF either rises or stays the same every year, which is why it’s so important to know where the money is going.

The survey is closed now, but it provided a unique opportunity for students to have a voice in SA’s allocation decisions, something all students should take advantage of.

2018 Midterms’ effects will be felt by all, no matter what party BENJAMIN HUMMEL Columnist

For the first time in eight years, Congress will no longer be under one-party rule.

At the time of this writing, Democrats have picked up 225 of the 422 declared seats, with 13 of the remaining seats’ ballots not yet counted or disputed.

Despite what happens with those remaining seats, Democrats will assume power of the U.S. House of Representatives. American voters have effectively consented to the restoration of checks and balances on President Donald Trump.

Volume 134 • Issue 10

Now that Democrats have reclaimed the House, they have power to subpoena evidence from members of the executive branch. This includes, but is by no means limited to, documents such as Donald Trump’s tax returns, documents pertaining to Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential Election, as well as compelling testimony from notable figures such as Jared Kushner and former Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Additionally, members and former members of Trump’s cabinet who have been embroiled in controversy and petty corruption, such as ousted EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt and Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke, are likely to face the scrutinous The Collegian is the independent student newspaper at South Dakota State University in Brookings, S.D.

investigation of the newly Democratic House.

Other than just the power to subpoena comes the inherent advantage that comes with controlling a chamber of Congress: all new legislation will have to survive the criticism of a democratic majority.

This means Trump will need to engage in transactions with Nancy Pelosi, the prospective House Speaker, in order to further his agenda.

With the lower house now in progressive hands, newfound efforts to overturn the Affordable Care Act or DACA will be thwarted, and Republicans’ efforts to pass more tax cuts are most likely going to fall flat, forcing Trump to restrict himself to issues that Democrats actually agree with him on — meaning we

will more than likely see an infrastructure bill, something Trump has talked extensively about, come to fruition and a vote before 2020.

However, this tool can be utilized offensively as well as defensively. Democrats could potentially hotbox popular legislation in the House, such as a highly anticipated farm bill or Medicaid expansion, to be turned down in the Senate. This would depict Senate Republicans as the roadblock to progress, which is ultimately what voters desperately want from Congress at this rate, enhancing the likelihood of Senate Republicans’ seats being taken by Democrats in 2020.

Overall, the effects of the midterms are going to be felt by both parties. Democrats’

Republicans are going to become accustomed to a drastic reduction in control, which could lead to a politically dire state of affairs for their agenda.

Trump will either finally be able to show off his purported negotiation prowess, or he will face a new kind of resistance — one that resides within the Capitol.

Dunteman, Goblirsch reminisce about semester at Collegian HUNTER DUNTEMAN News Editor

Student journalism was something I never expected to be a part of. As a matter of fact, I only joined the Collegian by chance.

In February 2017, I bumped into then-Managing Editor Brianna Schreurs at a high school debate tournament we were judging at. Brianna and I found we had nearly everything in common — we were both advertising majors (at the time), we were both former debaters and we were both avid writers.

She finally convinced me to write an article for her newspaper, the Collegian.

It was tough — my editor was pretty strict on quality control — but I found myself overcome with a sense of accomplishment when I found my story on the front page of the paper.

In the era of media mistrust, and at a university as large as ours, many students hear more rumors than they do legitimate news. Sometimes, they don’t hear the news at all.

I’ve had the pleasure of covering things as serious as a shotgun fired in a dorm to hundreds of students yelling iconic Spongebob quotes at the Campanile.

Working for the Collegian has easily been the most fun and beneficial experience of my life thus far. That being said: you, reader, also have a responsibility to tell it how it is.

The Collegian is almost always hiring. Anyone can write a story, submit a photo or write their hot-take opinion on almost any topic they want.

Contributing to the Collegian comes with many benefits — it pays, it’s great for a portfolio and it could even upgrade your status to “cool.”

My experience working at The Collegian has been nothing short of amazing. When I received news back in the spring of 2018 that I had been promoted to the position of Design Coordinator, I knew I would be in for quite a ride, and I was so eager to see what our staff was capable of come fall.

Three months of hard work, 12 issues and 260 plus published stories later, we are nearing the end of the semester, and I can’t help but reflect back on our memories and successes together.

I could not be more proud of our staff including our reporters, advertising crew, editors, adviser and especially my designers.

would not be possible.

It’s crazy the type of relationships one can build in only three months, but when you are locked in an office with eight to 10 other staff members for two nights a week, 12 weeks of the semester, you get really comfortable with your coworkers really fast.

I have never been part of a more hard working and tight-knit team.

It’s not all business though; of course, shenanigans and laughter are required to keep our sanity throughout the late-night work sessions.

But at the end of the day we always pull together a well thought out and quality newspaper.

I learned more than I thought I ever could on the job as a designer, and I built relationships that will last a lifetime. I am proud to have been part of the 134 years of dedicated and hard-working students that have built this reputable student-run organization.

Hahn-dling transition: Hahn hopes for wrestling success CARSON HERBERT Sports Reporter

D

amion Hahn had never stepped foot in the state of South Dakota before being named the head coach of the state’s lone Division I wrestling program in April 2018.

After head coach Chris Bono left for a head coaching position at the University of Wisconsin, SDSU’s athletic director, Justin Sell, called Hahn. Hahn said until that point he knew very little about SDSU’s wrestling program, other than the fact that it was ranked in the top 25 in the country.

The Lakewood, New Jersey native thought he would never leave Cornell University, where he served as an assistant coach and later as the associate head coach for 12 years. According to Hahn, there was even a plan in place for him to take over as head coach of the Cornell program down the road.

But after visiting the SDSU campus and considering his wife is from Minnesota, Hahn knew it was the perfect opportunity.

“When I came out, I was absolutely blown away by the campus, the people, the facilities, the community,” Hahn said. “There’s not enough to say about this place. It truly is a special place. You can go to a lot of universities in small towns and you won’t get the same feeling you get here.”

SDSU Athletic Director Justin Sell said in a statement released by gojacks.com after Hahn was hired that Hahn represents everything they are looking for in being able to take the wrestling program to the next level.

“His success both as a collegiate wrestler and coach, along with his ability to recruit high-achieving student-athletes on and off the mat, made him the ideal candidate. He is a tremendous ambassador for the sport who will work tirelessly to ensure wrestling thrives both on our campus and across the country,” Sell said.

Hahn helped the Big Red win 12 straight Ivy League dual championships and 11 consecutive Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association team titles. He was a part of a program that had 50 All-Americans and 12 NCAA champions during his time as an assistant and associate head coach.

“He was with me in our most successful period of time,” said Rob Koll, who is in his 25th year as head coach of the Cornell wrestling program. “Obviously he was a major part of that success. He was fantastic in the homes when it came to recruiting and he was even better in the room when it came to

coaching. So there was really no downside to Damion.”

Hahn said SDSU and Cornell share similar traits.

The two schools and towns are similar in size, Cornell and SDSU are both landgrant institutions and both have strong agriculture programs. These qualities has made the transition easier for Hahn.

“We were dealing with a lot of the same profiletype athletes,” he said. “So I kind of knew what to expect coming in. So I was looking forward to that.”

As a former collegiate wrestler at the University of Minnesota, Hahn won two individual national titles and was a four-time All-American. He was inducted into the

University of Minnesota’s “M” Club Hall of Fame during the summer of 2018.

Considering his career as a wrestler and a coach, there is reason for fans of the program to be excited about the new coach.

This season, the Jacks return only two seniors, one being defending national champion Seth Gross.

Hahn hired Cam Simaz, a former collegiate national champion who Hahn coached at Cornell. In addition to Simaz, Cody Caldwell, an assistant coach under Chris Bono for the 2017-18 season, was hired to join the staff.

Jackrabbits one win away from securing FCS Playoff seed TRENTON ABREGO Sports Editor The No. 5 South Dakota State Jackrabbits have been victorious in nine straight meetings in the South Dakota Showdown.

In order to earn a topeight seed in the Football Championship Subdivision Playoffs, the Jacks (7-2, 4-2) will need to make it 10 straight wins against the Coyotes (4-5, 3-4).

Playoff implications will be high for the Jackrabbits.

Win, and they earn a topeight seed. Lose, and they will get in, but they will lose their potential home-field advantage.

“Ideally, we win and then we get set up, then we get a bye if you are a top eight seed which is huge with the health of our football team,” head coach John Stiegelmeier said.

USD’s record might not show some of the success it has enjoyed at times, but Stiegelmeier and the Jacks won’t take the Coyotes lightly.

“The first thing is slow down their offense, they are up-tempo,” Stiegelmeier said.

“Their quarterback is really good, they got good skill, good line, they got a good offense.”

Despite having four wins and being well out of the playoff race, the Coyotes feature Austin Simmons, the top passer in the MVFC. Simmons is also the MVFC leader in total offense with 3,082 yards on the season. To put that in perspective, Jacks quarterback Taryn Christion is in second place of the conference with 2,566 total offensive yards.

The junior quarterback, Simmons, has struggled with efficiency to this point and

has completed 61 percent of his passes and has thrown seven interceptions while throwing for 15 touchdowns.

For Simmons, his favorite target has been Dakari Allen, who has 48 receptions for 703 yards and five touchdowns. Allen has the sixthmost receiving yards in the MVFC. “He’s not just a deep-ball guy, he’s not a short field guy,” Stiegelmeier said about Allen.

“He’s just a complete player.”

Levi Falck and Shamar Jackson have also made an impact for the Coyotes as both receivers have more than 400 yards on the season.

For the Coyotes, one downfall for the passing game has been protecting Simmons. The offensive line has allowed 34 sacks in 10 games, the most in the MVFC. “It’s being behind, throwing the ball, more

opportunities for sacks, I mean, there’s a lot of things that come into that,” Stiegelmeier said. “Do I think they have two offensive linemen that can’t pass block? No. It’s not one guy getting beat every time there’s a sack.”

On the ground, sophomore running back Kai Henry has been the leading rusher for the Coyotes and has 472 rushing yards on 120 attempts and seven touchdowns.

“Against these guys, we want to set a corner on the edge of the defense, meaning he has to run through gaps, not get out on the perimeter,” Stiegelmeier said. “We had the same goal against Southern Illinois and they got out on the perimeter a number of times.”

Defensively, the Coyotes are allowing 32.7 points

per game and 424 yards per game. Twin brothers, Alex and Andrew Gray lead the way for the Coyote defense.

Stiegelmeier knows what to expect from a team led by South Dakota head coach Bob Nielsen.

“Coach Nielsen is a good coach, he’s had success,” Stiegelmeier said. “He’s won national championships, he’s always put a good product on the field.”

Injuries continue to bother some key parts of the Jackrabbit offense and defense.

Stiegelmeier confirmed that starting guard Eddie Miller, running back C.J. Wilson and second-string sam linebacker Seven Wilson will be out as well.

Jacks turn focus to Creighton after challenging first week LANDON DIERKS News Reporter After a challenging threegame stretch to kick off the 2018-19 season, another tough test looms for the South Dakota State women’s basketball team.

The Jackrabbits are off to a 2-1 start after contests against a nationally ranked program and two top 10 midmajor teams. They will be back in action 7 p.m. Nov. 15 when the Creighton Bluejays visit Frost Arena.

“We’ve played really well,” SDSU head coach Aaron Johnston said. “You can find some times where we didn’t play well, but that’s true of most seasons — especially against this level of competition … I like where we’re at, but we’ll have to keep playing well because we don’t have many easy ones on the schedule.”

SDSU will be the third Summit League foe the Bluejays have faced in as many games to open their season.

Creighton fell at home to the University of South

Dakota in the season-opener but bounced back with a 35 point drubbing of North Dakota State.

The Jacks will have to hold Creighton senior forward Aubrey Faber in check if they hope to earn a win in front of the home crowd Thursday night.

Faber is averaging 22 points a game through two games and has led the Bluejays in scoring each of the past three seasons.

“She’s a handful,” Johnston said. “If we tried hard to take everything away from her that would create a lot of shots for other people too. You really have to play solid team defense because they have a lot of people who can score.”

The 6-foot-2-inch Faber not only has the size to score inside but started the season 8-for-11 on three-point field goals.

Junior forward Jaylyn Agnew is the only other Bluejay starter averaging more than 10 points in two games.

Agnew dropped 21 points on SDSU in the Bluejays’

72-65 victory last season in Omaha, Nebraska.

Johnston hopes his team makes the most of the opportunity to improve the record to 3-1 before the South Point Thanksgiving Shootout in Las Vegas Nov. 23-24.

“We always play so well in Frost Arena and our road games and the competition are going to be tough,” he said. “So when we get a chance to play anyone at home, we have to try and take full advantage of it. There’s not a whole lot of easy home wins either. We’re going to have to play awfully well.”

Week One Recap Marquette (No. 19 in AP Top 25) The Jackrabbits started off their season Tuesday, Nov. 6 on the road against No. 19 Marquette and fell victim to a barrage of three-pointers from the Golden Eagles.

The sharp shooting from the opposition coupled with 24 Jackrabbit turnovers led to a lopsided 91-52 final score in favor of Marquette.

Junior guard Rylie Cascio Jensen (2) dribbles up the court during the SDSU vs.

Flordia Gulf Coast Universtiy women’s game Friday, Nov. 10 at Frost Arena.

Florida Gulf Coast (No. 8 in CollegeInsider mid-major poll) SDSU then played host to a Florida Gulf Coast squad on Friday.

After facing an early 12 point deficit, SDSU used superior defense and ball movement over the final three quarters to put down the Eagles 80-62.

Senior guard Macy Miller moved into third on the alltime scoring list with a 25 point night against FGCU.

Central Michigan (No. 3 in CollegeInsider mid-major poll) The Jackrabbits capped off the first week of the season with a third tough test, this time against Central Michigan.

The game was hotly contested throughout and SDSU held only a two-point lead with under 90 seconds to play, but the Jacks secured an 80-71 victory by going 7-for-7 from the free throw line in the last minute.
