In an area of heavy traffic, construction involving parts of Green Street and the Illini Union are set to be part of a long-term project to help advance the ChampaignUrbana community. “There will be some delays and there will be some overall congestion created by the project,” said Louis Braghini, engineer technician for the City of Champaign, “But once the project is done, this will be a great addition to the campus town area.” The Multimodal Corridor Enhancement Project is a fivestage project aiming to address areas of conflict between modes of transportation, enhance transit corridors and improve overall infrastructure around Champaign-Urbana. Project 1, which involves a section of Green Street between Wright Street and Busey Avenue, includes the addition of protected bicycle lanes, a transit boarding island and a re-landscaping of the north face of the Union. “(A point of focus) was the bus access in front of the Illini Union,” Braghini said. “We have a lot of pedestrians, a lot of vehicles and then we have buses thrown in there.” Often regarded as the center of campus, the Illini Union and the surrounding areas see heavy amounts of traffic from all modes of transportation. “Whenever our vehicles are interacting, not only with cars but with pedestrians and bicyclists, of course there are safety concerns,” said Karl Gnadt, managing director at MTD. “There are a lot of

Altgeld chime players look for answers BY LUKE COOPER STAFF WRITER
On March 17, University administration cut off access to Altgeld Bell Tower for both tours and performances as a result of its American Disability Act and fire code violations. Since then, students have only heard the tower’s carillon bells playing their programmed quarter-hour timekeeping function. For many chimes players, the tower’s closure marked the ending of a hectic six-month period of uncertain, ambiguous communication with school administration on the tower’s future. “We were all pretty surprised at the way things happened,” said chimes player and mathematics Ph.D. student, Dane Skabelund. First, the University administration instructed a shutdown of public tours effective on Oct. 19, 2016, in response to the violations found in the tower that month.
Campus spokeswoman Robin Kaler said the funds for the Bell Tower’s initial repairs will come from the Office of the Provost. Kaler said the tower will reopen when it is compliant with all current safety codes. Kaler did not clarify whether or not the tower’s reopening would be independent from the larger renovation of both Altgeld and Illini Halls, which according to an Illinois New Bureau release, has a $90 million budget that will be separate from the Altgeld Bell Tower’s funding. Skabelund said that chimes players were still expected to play despite the violations, so as not to bring attention to the tower’s status. “(The administration) said, ‘OK, you can’t play,’ and, ‘Now you can play.’ It was kind of back and forth for a little bit,” he said. Skabelund said that chimes players weren’t allowed to tell peo-

Millenials, students having less sex Millenials might not really be the “hookup generation”
College students who use
BY SAMANTHA JONES TOAL BRAND MANAGER
College students probably aren’t putting as many socks on their door handles, according to a study by the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior. But it’s not specifically just college students having less sex. Millennials, the generation of Americans often nicknamed the “hookup generation,” are actually having less sex than their parents, according to the study. Millennials, or those born in the ‘80s and ‘90s, report having fewer sex partners on average than those in the prior two generations. Meanwhile, researchers found that younger millennials, such as college students, are twice as likely to be sexually inactive in their fi rst years of adulthood versus those born in the ‘60s and ‘70s. These fi ndings may be the result of distinct cultural differences between the generations said Mary Ramey, professor in sexual communication at the University. Students have more options when it comes to picking sexual partners and are not relying on their parents approval, Ramey said. “Technology has provided us the means to meet people beyond our geographic location,” Ramey said. “If you add in things like sexting, sexy photos, etc., sexual communication is very different for millennials. It can be both fun and complicated.” While there may be varying reasons for millennials having less sex, increased technology

It’s On Us draws criticism, changes focus to increase effectiveness BY GILLIAN DUNLOP ASSISTANT NEWS EDITOR
Widely viewed as a successful campaign against sexual assault nationwide, its strategy of bystander education has been brought into question by the Illinois Student Government during their meeting on March 15. It’s On Us has garnered over 3,000 student signatures on the pledge against sexual assault since the campaign fi rst came to the University in the fall of 2014. When Bobby Knier, junior in
LAS and author of the resolution, and Gabby Gendek, sophomore in Business and director of the senate, presented the It’s On Us initiative during the March 15 meeting, however, it was met with criticism mostly stemming from sexual assault survivors. The initiative was designed to have as many students as possible sign the pledge against sexual assault. It required $967 dollars of student government

Engineering students perfect their presentation skills at SpeakUP!, an engineering speaking competition.
Engineering speech competition helps students BY KEVIN DELGADO STAFF WRITER
SpeakUP! held their annual engineering speaking competition on April 1. Engineering Ambassadors, a professional outreach program sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Programs in the College of Engineering, hosted the event. The competition aims to improve and highlight communication skills among students in the engineering program, where much of the curriculum is focused on mathematics and science. “The purpose of this speaking competition is to break the stereotype that engineers aren’t good speakers and to show that we can communicate our ideas and research very well and effectively,” said Jessica Cook, sophomore in Engineering and the event’s lead organizer. During the competi-
tion, students presented a seven-minute speech to a board that consisted of four judges: Dr. Jennifer Amos, biological engineering professor and Engineering Ambassadors adviser; Marie-Christine Brunet, College of Engineering assistant dean; Chris Migotsky, College of Engineering academic advisor and coordinator of faculty teaching programs within the Academy for Excellence in Engineering Education; and Jason Smith, Monsanto representative. Because the competition’s sponsor, Monsanto, is a sustainable agriculture company, this year’s prompt was “Engineering a more sustainable future.” Monsanto focuses on creating new sustainable ways of providing food so that healthy meals are available to everyone. “It is an important topic, as we move towards the
future, one thing engineers have to deal with is limiting factors,” said Joshua Bi, sophomore in Engineering. “One issue that is contentious is how we, engineers and scientists, will work using limited resources.” Prior to the competition, Engineering Ambassadors hosted a public speaking workshop that focused on speech organization and presentation slide organization. Students were also introduced to the ambassadors’ assertion-evidence approach, which focuses on including a photo and statement on each presentation slide, intended to help guide the audience. All of the attendees who completed the workshop were presented with a communication certificate from the College of Engineering. “Each of us (judges) is going to be filling out an evaluation form. We will award points based on sur-
rounding content, visual aide and presentation delivery,” Amos said. “We look for things like stories, making it more personal and using relatable analogies rather than technical jargon.” All five engineering students competed to win the competition’s $200 cash prize. The competitors were sophomore Sai Komaragiri, freshman Emilio Rivera, junior Aashay Patel, junior Michael Neal and sophomore Jennifer Marten. Rivera won the $200 first place prize. His presentation was entitled “Analyzing the benefits of satellite imagery in assuring crop productivity.” “I thought this was a really cool thing to do,” Rivera said. “I like being able to speak about topics that are actually related to what I’m doing as a student.”

University promotes Sexual Assault Awareness Month BY KAREN LIU STAFF REPORTER
The Women’s Resource Center is teaming up with other University organizations to host events for community members with the hope of bringing attention to the issues surrounding sexual violence during Sexual Assault Awareness Month. “Our community has been pretty committed to doing events to raise awareness, help survivors feel supported and challenge the social norms that allow sexual assaults to continue,” said Molly McLay, assistant director at the Women’s Resource Center. Many of the events are designed to bring people from the community together and talk about the on-campus resources available for those affected by sexual assault. McLay said that the theme this year is “Engaging New Voices.” Even with organizations such as the Women’s Resource Center working to raise awareness about sexual assault, this issue still affects many students on campus. Patrick Wade, UIPD communications specialist, said that there were 15 cases of sexual assault reported to the UIPD last year. However, the department does not have jurisdiction over the private apartments on campus since they are not considered University property.

MCORE interaction points (between modes of transportation) along Wright Street and Green Street in particular.” Currently, the two-way bicycle lane along Green Street, east of Wright Street, lies in front of the Green and Matthews northeast bus stop. As a result, the lane is often obstructed by transit users boarding or leaving buses. The addition of protected bicycle lanes will serve to ease the flow of bicycle traffic and decrease the interaction between bicyclists, pedestrians and other vehicles, said Illini Union Board President Alonzo Marsh. Marsh said that the protected bicycle lanes will not simply be painted onto the road.
“There is a very narrow picture of when these crimes are happening, when it’s actually much broader than that; most sexual assaults aren’t reported to any formal person,” McLay said. “That would never generate a Campus Safety Notice because the University doesn’t know that it happened.” On top of that, McLay said that a lot of sexual assault reports don’t fall into the legal category of sexual assault that would generate Campus Safety Notices. Such notices regarding sexual assaults often stir up controversy among students when they do not include the locations at which the assaults take place. McLay said that withholding this information is to protect the victims. “The survivor has had a lot of power taken away, and to share that information could further harm them,” McLay said. “And it should really be the survivor's choice what information is shared.” Wade also said that the first priority is to protect the privacy of the survivors. The UIPD tries to avoid giving out any information that could be used to piece together their identities. “(Sexual assault) is, unfortunately, something that happens all over campus all the time,” Wade said. “So we don’t want people to focus too microscopically on this
one incident that happens at this one location, because it’s such a larger issue than that.” The UIPD is scheduled to attend a discussion hosted by the Women’s Resource Center on April 13 about Campus Safety Notices and the different resources offered on campus. “We’re finally getting to that point where awareness has been raised and now we can start talking about ‘OK, what are the solutions here? How can we end rape culture on college campuses around the country?’” Wade said. Rape Advocacy, Counseling, & Education Services is another organization that participates in Sexual Assault Awareness Month. One of its major events is “Take Back the Night," which is a march from Lincoln Square Mall to campus. Adelaide Aime, executive director of the organization, said that the aim of the event is to raise awareness and make everyone feel more comfortable for their personal safety, wherever they are, especially at night. “There is still such a strong stigma against people who’ve experienced any kind of sexual violence and that it makes people scared to reach out for help,” Aime said. “This crime, unfortunately, is common. You are not the only one. Statistically, you and I both know
“The new lanes will be raised from the sidewalk,” he said. “This makes driver action more predictable by having a raised bike lane because people are less likely to roll into that bike path.” The new transit boarding island will also serve to alleviate multi-modal conflict. Rather than stopping in the lane of traffic, buses will pull into a designated lane within the transit boarding island, decreasing interaction between buses and other vehicles. The section of Green Street involved will also be reduced to one lane in either direction to decrease the flow of traffic. Additionally, the north entrance of the Illini Union will be redesigned, complete with updates to the entrance aesthetics and a re-landscaped circle drive. “(The redesign) is going to provide a lot more of a
cozy environment that students are actually able to hang out in,” Marsh said. A section of Green Street between Wright and Matthews Streets are currently closed off for reworking of the water main to accommodate for further construction. The north entrance of the Illini Union, however, will remain open until the end of the school year. “They’re expecting to have everything reopened either in August, September or October,” Marsh said. “The landscaping they’re hoping to have done around February (2018).” In addition to the renovations outside of the Illini Union, other MCORE projects will focus on bridging a connection between campus, the downtown areas of Champaign and Urbana and the area’s major points of interest.

MCORE renovations occur in front of the Illini Union and portions of Green Street, which is part of a five-part plan to renovate campus streets. Projects 1, 2 and 3 are ongoing, with Projects 4 and 5 scheduled to begin in the next two years. “We’ll have additional bike lanes and improved pedestrian corridors to help connect (Campustown) to the downtown infrastructure,” Braghini said. “(The projects) allow for better pedestrian and bicycle traffic from the campus town area to downtown.”
Construction for Project 1, including Green Street from Wright Street to Busey Avenue, Project 2, Green Street from Neil Street to Fourth Street, and Project 3, White Street from Second Street to Wright Street, is scheduled to be completed by December 2018.
Construction for Project 4, which includes Armory Avenue and Wright Street, and Project 5, Green Street from Busey Avenue to Race Street, is scheduled to be completed by December 2019.

CHIMES student and chimes player, Skabelund said that no apparent changes had been made to the tower since its covert closure. Discontent among chimes players compelled math adviser and chimes player Ernesto Machado to send an email on March 8 to Associate Provost for Capital Planning Matthew Tomaszewski, who oversees the Altgeld Bell Tower. The chimes players requested information on the administration’s expected plans for the tower. All chimes players helped to formulate the email, and signed off on it as a gesture of approval. “We were just blind. We didn’t have any information about when things were going to happen at all (with the tower),” Skabelund said. The email also requested provisions to the tower, such as a paid position amongst chimes players, a public announcement of Chimes Master Sue Wood’s retirement, a ceremony in honor of her 30 years of service and a request to expedite necessary repairs in the tower. Tomaszewski responded to Machado’s email on March 13, in an email that stated, “I write to inform you (Ernesto Machado) that your volunteer services are no longer needed in any capacity regarding the Altgeld chimes. Your volun-
teer role ends effective today, Monday, March 13, 2017.” Tomaszewski did not respond to requests for comment. Skabelund stressed the importance of tours for the public as being “crucial to recruiting new chimes players.” Skabelund and Jones said most chimes players are initially interested in volunteering after going on the tours. “We fear that these repairs will be extended until the Altgeld renovations, meaning the tower will be closed for the next few years,” Jones said. “All the chimes players will be long gone. Most chimes players might not ever get to play again.” Since the tower’s closure, Skabelund said that communication between the administration and chimes players has ceased. “I haven’t received a single thing, any update,” he said. “It’s only been a couple of weeks, but I think as they’re concerned, we just don’t exist anymore.” University administrators told chimes players that repairs would start over spring break; however, Skabelund said the chimes players left a slip of paper in between the door leading to the tower before spring break as way to tell if anyone had entered during that time. According to both Jones and Skabelund, the slip of paper is still there.

IT’S ON US funding to pay for It’s On Us shirts, stickers, water bottles and key chains for students who signed the pledge. Senator Tara Chattoraj, junior in LAS, was particularly outspoken during the debate of the It’s On Us initiative. “(The initiative) bothered me because it’s actually hurting people and it’s actually creating this very false image that we’re doing something,” Chattoraj said. During the debate, Chattoraj referenced seeing her own rapist wearing an It’s On Us shirt around campus as an example of how the current approach of the campaign does not do what it intends to accomplish. “(Seeing my rapist wearing the shirt) is the most shocking thing,” she said. “It’s very jarring, because you did this yet you can hide behind this shirt and people think you’re this great person.” Chattoraj was involved in It’s On Us her freshman year, shortly after being raped. It was not until she saw her rapist wearing that shirt that she changed her mind on the power of the initiative. “I saw my rapist in

I think millennials are very comfortable with using the technology (apps, etc.).” Ramey said that she thinks technology can “stall out” many relationships, that people never get around to meeting each other. “I fi nd that can be a challenge for millennials,” Ramey said. “They are comfortable with the technology part ... just not with the in-person part.”

It’ s more than just ‘On Us’ to prevent sexual assault
A
pril marks the beginning of Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Unfortunately, our campus is all too familiar with sexual assaults. To start, there’s the seemingly constant Campus Safety Notices informing students about sexual assaults in our community. Then, there’s the notable It’s On Us campaign. You’ve probably heard about it; it’s what brought former Vice President Joe Biden to campus. But even the lovable Biden can’t help us fix everything. This year, there have been at least seven reported sexual assaults on campus. Over 90 percent of campus assaults go unreported. These seven are very likely just the tip of the iceberg. As University students, we all play a role in challenging sexual assault. Whether you are a survivor, supporter or a loved one, we can help make this University a safer place. This month shouldn’t just be somber. We should reflect on the progress we have made in combating campus sexual assault. But this topic is serious and we can’t sugarcoat that. We still have great work to do to eliminate the problem. Fortunately, many events this month offer education for students on how to do their part.
First and foremost, take the It’s On Us pledge. It’s simple, easy and important, so just please do it. The pledge communicates to survivors that you’re doing more than just acknowledging the issue and its implications. It shows you acknowledge them and their experiences. Have those difficult conversations with peo-
ple who are tempted to victim blame. But often words just aren’t enough. Get active. Realize you may not know more than just the buzz words and facts about sexual assault. FYCARE and Haven Plus aren’t enough. A mandatory class isn’t too enticing for most students.
HANNAH AUTEN THE DAILY ILLINI
The It’s On Us campaign decorates Alma Mater to raise awareness for sexual assault on Oct. 29, 2015. This Monday on the Main Quad, the Red Flag Campaign will continue informing students on how to spot signs of sexual violence.
Take some time to better understand the facts surrounding campus sexual assault. Remember that 1 in 5 women and 1 in 16 men will be sexually assaulted on campus. It is up to all of us to reduce that number: If you see something, say something. Today is the day to start. The Red Flag Campaign will be kicking off today on the Main Quad at noon. It’s the perfect opportunity to learn how to spot sexually violent behavior and be an active bystander. It’s important to reflect on the paradigms that perpetuate campus sexual assault. It is our responsibility to shut down the myths that place blame on victims, or even college party culture. While it’s easy to attribute the problem to the prevalence of alcohol on campus, we need to better understand the crime as one of power and control, not something to be taken lightly. Chances are you will, at some point, be in the position to support a friend who has been sexually assaulted. We hope you treat them with the respect they deserve, and understand you don’t truly know how they’re feeling. This month is the perfect time to educate yourself, to support victims and to stand against the sexual violence that haunts campus. We’ll be there; we hope you will be too.

But in the years since the creation of those outlets, humans have exposed a vulnerability in the practice: What do we do when someone’s proud, shareable moment is one in which they harm themselves or others? Since as early as the turn of the millennium, people have attempted suicide in front of live audiences online. In some cases, these audiences have intervened and saved lives. But in many others, the opposite has occurred. Internet users — often just regular people protected by a veil of anonymity — have actually cheered and egged on suicides and other violent acts. That sort of encouragement wasn’t reportedly present during a Facebook Live stream in March that showed the sexual assault of a 15-year-old girl in Chicago, but the inaction of the video’s 40 viewers was nearly as unhelpful. Investigations of the incident led to the Saturday night arrest of a 14-yearold boy who was reportedly among the five or six attackers involved in the video. This was one of at least four Chicago crimes streamed on Facebook Live since October, according to the Chicago Tribune. Most recently, four young adults were arrested in January for
assaulting a man with mental health issues and streaming it on Facebook. Many have blamed the streaming services for these incidents, stating that they should be more vigilant in eradicating violent content. In response to those criticisms, Facebook changed its user interface in June to make it easier for people to report concerns of suicide and other emergencies. One can hardly blame a victim’s family for accusing Facebook or Periscope of misdoing, but these acts shouldn’t be an indictment on the service itself. It’s difficult to imagine the allure of an audience would further encourage people to commit an act of violence. Those who are in the mindset to do such acts in the first place are likely to carry them out regardless of what the internet says. Like so many other societal issues supposedly introduced by the advent of new technologies, the problem here is a human one. And it requires a human solution. These horrifying crimes should inspire awareness of the subject. The danger of bystander culture has become an important topic of education for young students, but that hasn’t been effective enough in curbing cyberbullying, perhaps because the online world is so vast and difficult to explain. People young and old need to understand that watching idly online is the same as walking by a crime on the street and doing nothing. It’s so easy to be silent online, which makes it all the more important for everyone to consider the real people on the other
sides of their phone screens. That sort of education is important, but it also presupposes that someone scrolling through Facebook could even identify a crime streaming in front of their eyes. Particularly for older generations, it could be difficult to decipher whether a post on Facebook is part of the recent fake news epidemic or something that needs urgent attention. Video of a sexual assault or suicide happening on one’s screen could be so shocking and out of place that it comes across looking like the dramatized forms of such events that one might see on TV. There is no legal consequence at this point for failing to report a crime witnessed live on the internet, but all it takes is one person who understands what’s happening to potentially prevent severe harm or death. Hardly anyone reading this will ever witness a live crime on their social media account. Suicidal thoughts are much more common though, and it would be wise for everyone to explore and understand social media tools for reporting distress. Exposure to these critical moments worth preparing for. Social accountability has been an important facet of living in a community since the dawn of civilization. The positive aspects of live streaming allow us to form stronger bonds within those communities, but with those benefits must come an evolution in how we protect each other from harm.

F
atimah Warner, better known by her stage name Noname, is something else. A Chicago-native, the former poet now spits bars in a refreshing way. And starting off her first tour of the year, Noname rocked our socks off right here at the University. While most fans first heard her poetic verses alongside Chance the Rapper on the track “Lost” off of his mixtape “Acid Rap” in 2013, Noname has fi nally made a bigger name for herself. Her debut mixtape, “Telefone,” was released in July 2016 to a widespread recognition. Compared to other albums that dropped that same year, “Telefone” was a breath of fresh air in terms of delivery, lyricism and instrumentation. Her song topics include heavier subjects like funerals and opportunity, which reflects Noname’s experiences and conversations over the telephone as she grew up in Chicago. During live performances, she excels at making some of the darker, more somber songs feel optimistic and breezy. Coupled with her band’s effortless groove, her performances are the type of jam that you’d happily spread on your toast in the morning. At surface level, Noname’s songs are slow jams; tunes to play during a night drive. But beyond that, they tell us the journey of her life up to this point — we get a glimpse into the life of Fatimah, not Noname. Her song, “Bye Bye Baby,” tells the story of her abortion. Noname is not much older than students here on campus. Her struggles while growing up in
Chicago are more likely to resonate with us than any other age group. Dealing with a relative’s illness, self-doubting when opportunity knocks and feeling love are all real, relatable experiences college students go through. Noname is an extraordinary poet, and that translates to the unparalleled vocabulary in her bars. But she’s also a colorful personality when performing. While a majority of up-and-coming hip-hop artists gravitate toward more stiff, trap-influenced melodies and beats, Noname deviates from this norm. The entirety of “Telefone” draws you in with soft melodies from xylophones, pianos and minimal break beats leaning on Noname’s signature spoken-word, down to earth vocals. This take on hip-hop is both underrepresented and underrated in the rap game. Of course, everyone loves
turning up to some Kendrick or some Kanye, but sometimes, we need to relax and unwind. This isn’t to say that those artists don’t delve into slower, more reflective songs. Rather, it’s simply not what they are generally known for. Noname’s “Telefone,” however, is a small gem that goes against the current; instead of hard, aggressive tunes, the mixtape’s soft delivery encourages introspection and reminiscence. Last Friday, Noname performed at the Foellinger Auditorium. Even with a captivating performance, her fi nal songs stood out. She ended with “Shadow Man,” a song about mortality. It was a fitting song to end a phenomenal performance. Because at some point, all good things come to an end.

Noname energizes crowd in performance at Foellinger BY TESS O’BRIEN STAFF WRITER
Within the span of four hours, Foellinger Auditorium was transformed from a typical lecture hall to an electric venue for Chicago-based rapper Noname’s concert Friday. As dedicated fans chanted her name before the show and danced in the front rows, it was hard to imagine that only a couple hours prior to the show students had been quietly taking notes in the seats lining the auditorium. The concert featured songs from her debut mixtape, “Telefone,” which was released in July 2016. The first song of the night, “All I Need,” set the mood for the rest of the show. As she strutted around the stage, occasionally making eye contact and smiling at lucky fans in the crowd, it was easy to tell she was having a good time. Songs like “Sunny Duet” and “Diddy Bop” kept the good mood up and the crowd didn’t need to be encouraged to snap along. Alexa Hirsch, junior in Engineering, started listening to Noname after she saw her perform on Saturday Night Live with Chance the Rapper. Hirsch soon introduced Noname to her friend, Jake Stone, senior in LAS. The two enjoyed the music and vibe of the show, but the highlight for them was, in Hirsch’s words, “every time she smiles.” “Honestly though, her smile is so contagious,” Stone said. “She always had me smiling when she was. That was my favorite part.” All smiles, and dressed in a black T-shirt and plaid green skirt, Noname didn’t fit the stereotypical look of a rapper. She commanded the stage, but kept a relaxed atmosphere, flowing from one song to the

Her sound was pure, clean and something about seeing her perform live made it even more enchanting. Toward the end, particularly with her song “Bye Bye Baby,” her songs took a more melancholic turn, bringing the mood down a bit. She ended with the fanfavorite “Yesterday,” having the audience repeat and fade out the chorus without any accompaniment, creating
a really beautiful, almost haunting, moment. Focused on her background and time growing up in Chicago, Noname’s music is real, meaningful and relatable for a lot of fans. Especially considering the number of students at the University who are from Chicago. It wasn’t surprising then, that when she asked the crowd if anyone was from Chicago, hundreds
of hands shot up. CJ Seymour, sophomore in Media, started listening to Noname about a year ago because of recommendations by their friends from Chicago. Seymour, who is better known by their stage name, CJ Run, is an up-andcoming rapper who opened for Noname’s concert. “I’ve been listening to (Noname) for about as long as I’ve been in the state,” Seymour said. “I feel like
I’ve never heard anyone like her. When I first listened to her, I remember the quality of her voice was very distinct. When you play a Noname song, you know it’s her.” After they received the opportunity to open for Noname, Seymour was “ecstatic,” and this mood was evident in their performance. With bright yellow lights illuminating the stage, the rapper started off the set on a high note with a song off
of their EP “ForgetMeNot,” “Return to Sender.” Other songs included singles like “Pity the Plight” and “G for Go,” which can be found on their SoundCloud account. From house shows to the Canopy Club, CJ Run has become a common name in the Champaign-Urbana area. Recently, they released “ForgetMeNot” on Spotify, and have been quickly rising in popularity and evolving as a performer. “For an independent artist to put music on iTunes and Spotify, there’s no money in it streaming-wise, but it’s defi nitely gotten people into the habit of listening to my music a lot more,” Seymour said. The dynamic of the Friday performance was different, and those who have seen CJ Run perform at house shows could see the change. Whereas smaller shows are typically more focused on fun and excitement, this show was more polished and clean. That doesn’t mean that it was any less enjoyable — if anything, it was even more impressive. Seymour knew how to work the crowd, and their personality came through throughout the set. Like in Noname’s performance, it was easy to tell how much they enjoy performing. Seymour comes to life on the stage and that is what really lets the audience have a good time. Seymour is working on expanding as an artist, and performed a new song, “We Don’t Rave No More,” at the show. Currently, they are developing a mystery project and hope to spread outside of the ChampaignUrbana area, citing sets in Chicago as the next goal.

Earth Witch’s ‘Out of the Shallow’ makes a headbanging debut BY NICK ARGER ASSISTANT BUZZ EDITOR
Within the last decade, indie rock bands have shifted from their grungey, rough-around-the-edges roots in favor of a more clean, refi ned approach. Many bands traded in their leather for sweatpants, gave their fuzz pedals away for lack of use and decided to give their raw sound a more danceable approach. Garage rock heavyweights such as The Black Keys and The Strokes have embraced the disco of the late ‘70s to varying degrees of success, but there will always be room for the ugly cousin of this type of glitz and excess: heavy rock music. As bands like The Kill-
ers put out hits on the radio, heavy bands like Wolfmother have had their hits blasted in unlikely environments, such as video game soundtracks and sports arenas. Wolfmother is a throwback to the days when Zeppelin and Sabbath were badges of honor, sewn onto jean jackets by the moms of the kids who would skip gym class to go smoke cigarettes. However, it is also a product of the stoner metal movement, which I would argue is a highly influential genre in certain realms of today’s rock scene. Pop-friendly bands including Queens of the Stone Age (born out of the dissolution of the legendary stoner metal group Kyuss), Nirvana (“Bleach”
is a raw kick in the groin) “Out of the Shallow,” their and even Tame Impala (look excellent debut. They up “The Serpentine” on You- stand alongside veterans Tube) have all started out as of the genre, such as The stoner metSword and al bands.

ney from one end of the continent to the other, bass placed prominently in the mix and distortion. So. Much. Distortion. The singing sounds like a sermon given atop an active volcano, rallying the congregation to repent their sins. For rapture and the covenant are upon us, and all shall be damned into the fiery pits of hell. Through the depth of all the darkness, there are still moments of melancholy reflection, which is evident in the track “Butterfly,” with its broody opening. This song is a personal highlight for me because it has very specific sections that read like chapters in an epic novel. The troubled backstory fraught with soul-
searching soliloquies, the quest for a semblance of truth, a power struggle and fi nally the wrath that lies in the wake of the unsatisfied protagonist’s downfall. Earth Witch give the world a piece of the golden stoner metal ideal. Instead of singing about a troubled love drama over a four-onthe-floor beat, Earth Witch whisk you away into a magical realm of crunchy guitars alongside dragons sleeping within miles of wizards casting spells and vikings battling for vengeance. Through their darkness you can see the light of pure rock glory, and for Earth Witch the future certainly looks bright.

Baby goats warm community hearts
Babies and Breakfast event allows community to learn about sustainable farming BY MARISSA PLESCIA STAFF WRITER
For most University students, seeing puppies on the Main Quad is an experience that melts their hearts. But now students have another animal to fawn over — baby goats at Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery. Leslie Cooperband and Wes Jarrell decided to make a change back in 2003. They traded city life for a quieter life on the farm. The two moved from Madison, Wis., to the rural parts of Champaign. It was there they bought a farm named Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery. In 2005, they received their license as a Grade A goat dairy and farmstead creamery. They also won the IDOA Sustainable Ag Award, and now host the annual Babies and Breakfast event on their farm. Babies and Breakfast is an
event that allows the Champaign community to come see baby goats on the farm and enjoy a nice breakfast. This is the third year Prairie Fruits Farm & Creamery has held the event. Babies and Breakfast began March 18 and will continue Saturdays 9 a.m. to noon through April 29. Admission is free but breakfast and farm apparel have a fee. Cooperband said the event was created to attract people to the farm, celebrate spring, see baby goats and enjoy a locally-sourced breakfast. Cooperband and Jarrell serve food harvested on their own farm. Food is also provided by other farmers in the Champaign area. At the event, dozens of baby goats and newborns are available for guests to pet and feed. Attendees can witness the goats energetically jump around and play with the toys
left for them in the barn. Jen Quinlan, farm volunteer, finds working with these goats a particularly rewarding experience. “For me, no matter what happens in your day, it’s very hard to be upset if you get to be around goats,” Quinlan said. “They’re people-oriented, especially the babies. They move in such a wild, silly, erratic way that it’s absolutely impossible to go into the baby barn and not see someone cracking a smile.” What Quinlan finds special about this event is that it stresses sustainable farming. People can come and actually see the source of their food. Quinlan said Cooperband and Jarrell’s passion for organic farming is one that she greatly believes in. “Personally being someone that lives in ChampaignUrbana I think it’s really important to invest your time
SUMMER SESSIONS STAR T MAY 22 AND JUNE 5. Start planning your summer now at harpercollege.edu/summer
and volunteer your time in places that you believe in,” Quinlan said. “I think Wes and Leslie’s business is one that I personally believe in where they treat people well, they’re dedicated to the community, they stand for education (and) they go above and beyond.” According to the Prairie Fruits Farm & Creamery website, the farm hopes to serve as a model for smallscale diversified farming systems. “Their farm embodies core principles of sustainability including environmental stewardship, economic viability and social responsibility,” the website said. “They strive to educate the community about organic and sustainable agriculture and the connections between food production and consumption.” The Babies and Breakfast
event offers donuts, beignets, cheeses and eggs. It also offers gelato and various drinks, such as the farm’s goat milk hot chocolate and Columbian coffee. “The families can know that the products that they buy from Prairie Fruits Farm are ethically done,” Quinlan said. Tricia Ebersold, sophomore in AHS, started volunteering on the farm Saturday, and found her first day a gratifying experience. Ebersold’s favorite part of the farm is seeing how happy all the children are when they see the goats and eat the donuts provided by the farm. On her first day, Ebersold helped with serving food. She said that the event was so popular that they eventually ran out of some of the food items offered there. Stephanie Norick, Champaign resident, attended the
event for the first time Saturday. She said it provides the community with something unique to do on the weekends. “I can see it being really neat for kids, like being able to get up close to goats,” Norick said. “I don’t think they get that opportunity otherwise.” Norick said her favorite part of the event is being able to actually feed and touch the goats. The goal of the farm is to promote sustainability and educate Champaign locals on the importance of organic farming. Babies and Breakfast allows the farm to help accomplish this goal. “It’s a chance to see a real working farm ... and interact with adorable baby goats and get people attuned to eating some fantastic local food,” Cooperband said.

Mannie Jackson joins Naismith in hall of fame BY LUCAS WRIGHT STAFF WRITER
A former Illini basketball great was among those announced to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2017. Mannie Jackson will be inducted along 10 other former players Sept. 8 in Springfield, Mass. Jackson spent some of his time at the helm of the Harlem Globetrotters. He bought the team in 1993 and helped revive it to record attendance and revenue growth. With this purchase, he became the first African-American owner of a global sports and entertainment brand. Jackson also served as Chairman of the Board for the Basketball Hall of Fame from 2007-09. He is also the namesake of Mannie Jackson — Basketball’s Human Spirit Award. The NCAA gave Jackson the Theodore Roosevelt Award in 2015, the association’s top honor. Jackson and Govoner Vaughn became the first African-Americans to letter and start in basketball at Illinois during the 1957-58 season. On the court, Jackson averaged double digits in three-straight seasons and also earned two All-Big Ten honors. He finished his Illini career with 922 points, which at the time put him in fifth place on the school’s all-time scoring list. "He is a pioneer whose determination and vision have been felt not only by generations of Illini fans, but also by basketball fans the world over,” said Illinois Director of Athletics Josh Whitman in a press release. “We are grateful to Mannie for his contributions to the game and, more locally, for his ongoing commitment to the University of Illinois and Fighting Illini Athletics."

Despite Meyer’s win, Illini leave in fourth BY GAVIN GOOD ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
The Illinois men’s golf team squandered an opportunity to win its first tournament of the spring on Sunday at the 3M Augusta Invitational, shooting 2-over par in the final round. The team entered the day tied for first with New Mexico but slipped to fourth by the end of the competition at 17-under as a team. Junior Dylan Meyer’s title-winning individual effort was not enough to carry the Illini past champions Central Florida and runners-up No. 8 Wake Forest, who shot team totals of 28-under and 24-under par, respectively. Meyer brought a four-stroke lead into the final round, where he shot even on the day to hold off Wake Forest’s Will Zalatoris, who went 6-under on the day to finish at 10-under in total. The win was Meyer’s first title of the season. He posted a 67 for the first round, a 66 the second and a 72 in the third round, beating out
Zalatoris as well as Central Florida’s Bobby Bai and Manuel Elvira. The rest of the team lagged behind Meyer, with freshman Michael Feagles finishing next-best for Illinois in a tie for 19th with a score of 3-under. Feagles struggled in the middle of his round but rallied for late birdies on three of his last four holes to finish the round at 1-under. Sophomore Edoardo Lipparelli tied for 30th, shooting 2-over Sunday to finish the tournament at 1-under. He bounced back from multiple bogeys early in the round with three consecutive birdies in the middle of the round. Junior Nick Hardy came in at 1-under par for the tournament, tying with freshman Giovanni Tadiotto and three others for 38th overall. Hardy shot 2-over for the final round while Tadiotto went 1-under on the day — his best performance while in Augusta, Ga.

Illini get momentum on season with impressive sweep against Sycamores BY STEPHEN COHN STAFF WRITER
gavinrg2@dailyillini.com
PORTRAIT OF DYLAN MEYER COURTESY OF ILLINOIS ATHLETICS
Junior Dylan Meyer’s individual title win at the 3 a.m. Augusta Invitational was not enough for an Illini first-place finish this past weekend.
With senior southpaw Ryan Keaffaber on the mound, Indiana State expected its veteran starter to give the team a chance to avoid a sweep at Illinois. Keaffaber entered the afternoon with 20 strikeouts and seven walks in 24 1/3 innings this season. He exited the Sycamores 5-2 loss to the Illini after going 1 2/3 innings with 50 pitches, two walks and two earned runs. Illinois’ third-straight win — the club’s longest win streak of the 2017 campaign — marked its first sweep of an opponent this year. “There’s still a lot of season left, especially Big Ten season,” said first baseman Pat McInerney. “This was huge to get momentum and to see us on top of the scoreboard repeatedly.” Right fielder Jack Yalowitz singled to leadoff for the Illini. The sophomore stole second base, advanced on a wild pitch and scored on a Casey Dodge sacrifice fly to score the first run of the afternoon. Head coach Dan Hartleb started right-handed pitcher Luke Shilling on Sunday. The sophomore entered the game with 33 walks and 27
strikeouts this season. Shilling walked four and struck out three before exiting the game with soreness after two innings. Illinois’ bullpen provided seven innings of one-run ball in relief for Shilling. Indiana State did not record a hit during the game’s final four frames. “(The bullpen) is a talented group,” Hartleb said. “You look at the only run they got was the first batter that we faced coming out of the bullpen. We were able to shut them down and throw a lot of strikes.” McInerney extended Illinois’ lead in the second inning with a two-run shot to left field. The senior homered in each game of the weekend series and leads the Big Ten with 11 home runs. McInerney finished the weekend 4-for-9 with three home runs and four RBIs. “It was one of those weekends where I was seeing the ball well,” McInerney said. “Baseball is a game of failure, and some weekends you aren’t seeing the ball really well. This wasn’t one of those weekends.” Dodge added his first career home run down the left-field line
Recap Illinois vs. Indiana State
Summary: Illinois knocked Indiana State’s starter out of the game after only five outs, using four early runs to complete sweep of the Sycamores. Quote of the Game: “It was one of those weekends where I was seeing the ball well,” first baseman Pat McInerney said. McInerney had three home runs over the weekend. Up Next: Illinois vs. Missouri on Tuesday in Sauget, Ill. to open the sixth inning. “It was an unbelievable feeling,” Dodge said. “I tried to keep a simple approach and look for one fastball, and it was there.” The Illini ended their 12-game homestand 5-7 after losing seven of the first nine. Illinois heads next to a road-trip game against Missouri on Tuesday at GCS Ballpark in Sauget, Ill.

Illinois leaves series with one win, ends losing streak against Minnesota BY ERICH FISHER STAFF WRITER
The Illinois softball team won one game over No. 6 Minnesota this weekend but lost the overall series. The win on Saturday gave the Illini their first victory over a ranked opponent for the year and ended their 15-game losing streak to the Golden Gophers. Illinois had a nine-game win streak coming into the series, but had it snapped in the first game Friday. They were shut out 12-0. Minnesota got off to a fast
start, scoring two runs in the first inning after drawing a walk and a hit-by-pitch with the bases loaded both times. Minnesota pitcher Sara Groenewegen gave the Illini trouble throughout the game. Illinois only had one hit and struck out seven times at the plate. “We got to come out and hit strikes; there were a few that we swung at that were (Groenewegen’s) pitch instead of our pitch,” said senior Nicole Evans. “This is our field and our home series, and we need to take it.”
The mercy rule was enforced after five innings due to Minnesota scoring 10 runs in the fifth inning. Six of these runs came from freshman Kendyl Lindaman, who hit two home runs in the fifth, one of which was a grand slam. Illini senior pitcher Breanna Wonderly struggled on the mound, giving up 12 runs — four of which were earned — 10 hits, six walks and four strikeouts. In the second game of the series, junior Annie Fleming gave the Illini a 4-3 victory with
a walk-off double in the bottom of the seventh inning. “I had a lot of confidence in the box,” Fleming said. “I was not going to get off the field without scoring those runs.” However, it was not looking promising for Illinois early on. Minnesota once again got off to hot start, with Lindaman hitting a two-run homer in the first inning. The Gophers tacked on another run in the fifth inning off an RBIsingle, making it a 3-0 ballgame. The Illini responded in the
fifth inning, scoring three runs. Senior Ruby Rivera scored off an RBI-single from sophomore Kiana Sherlund. Illinois scored its next two runs off errors from Minnesota second baseman MaKenna Partain and Lindaman at the plate. The game was tied at three going into the sixth inning, and Wonderly came up big for Illinois down the stretch, only allowing one base runner in the sixth and seventh innings.

Best games and iconic moments of 2010s BY ORI BENATER STAFF WRITER
While the 2010s are far from over, the decade has already given sports fans some of the most iconic moments of all time. In honor of March Madness, The Daily Illini sports staff voted on a bracket of 32 games or events from the 2010s so far. Hopefully, this year’s games will add even more to the list. The staff determined the seeding based on excitement, popularity and importance of the game. The pairings were chosen at random. Next week, the staff will reveal its Elite Eight.
ROUND OF 16
Super Bowl XLIX The Patriots’ Malcolm Butler had one of the biggest interceptions in NFL history.
Chicago Cubs vs. Cleveland Indians (2016 World Series – Game 7) The craziest MLB playoff game led to the moment that Wrigleyville waited 108 years for: the Cubs winning the World Series.
Duke vs. Butler (2010 Nat Championship)
San Francisco Giants vs. Kansas City Royals (2014 World Series, Game 7)
Butler’s Gordon Hayward heaved the final shot from halfcourt that almost went in, the most memorable missed shot in basketball history.
Giants’ pitcher Madison Bumgarner capped his MVP performance by retiring the last 14 Royals batters in a 3-2 victory against the Royals.
Miami Heat vs. San Antonio Spurs (2013 NBA Finals, Game 6)
Chicago Blackhawks vs. Boston Bruins (2013 Stanley Cup – Game 6)
Miami’s Ray Allen sent the game to overtime with a corner three. Miami would win Games 6 and 7 to give LeBron James his second NBA title.
In a 17-second span, the Blackhawks scored two goals in the last two minutes of the game to seal their second Stanley Cup in four seasons.
Clemson vs. Alabama (2017)
Penn State vs. USC (2017 Rose Bowl)
Clemson claimed its first championship win since 1981 thanks to Deshaun Watson’s two-yard touchdown pass to Hunter Renfrow.
The Trojans scored 17 fourth-quarter points to defeat Penn State 52-49 in the highest-scoring Rose Bowl of all time.
Cleveland Cavaliers vs. Golden State Warriors (2016 NBA Finals, Game 7)
Super Bowl LI (Falcons vs. Patriots)
LeBron James led the Cavaliers to an improbable threeconsecutive wins. His block in Game 7 helped Cleveland win its first major sports title in more than 50 years.
Tom Brady led the Patriots to an overtime win to complete arguably the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, giving Brady his record fifth Super Bowl title.
Chicago Bulls vs. Brooklyn Nets (2013 - Game 4)
Los Angeles Clippers vs. San Antonio Spurs (2015 NBA Playoffs, Game 7)
Nate Robinson’s 34 points led the Bulls to a 142-134 triple-overtime win over the Nets to take a 3-1 first-round series lead.
Los Angeles’ Chris Paul hit a fading one-handed shot over Tim Duncan with one second remaining to clinch the series over the defending NBA champions.
USA vs. Ghana (2014 World Cup)
Auburn vs. Alabama (2013 Iron Bowl)
After conceding a goal, the United States clinched the win with an unexpected header from defender John Brooks with four minutes left.
After Alabama’s missed field goal, Auburn’s Chris Davis returned it 100 yards in one of the craziest finishes in sports history.
St. Louis Cardinals vs. Texas Rangers (2011 World Series, Game 6)
Villanova vs. North Carolina (2016 March Madness Final) Marcus Paige’s game-tying three for North Carolina and Kris Jenkins’ buzzer-beater gave Villanova its second national title.
David Freese hit a walk-off home run to win Game 6 , and then St. Louis clinched an 11th World Series title the next night.

Illini fail to advance at NCAA Regional Saturday BY DANIELLE WILLIAMS STAFF WRITER
The Illinois women’s gymnastics team ended its season with a fourth-place finish at the NCAA Regional on Saturday. UCLA took first with 196.800 points, while Oregon State claimed second with 196.150. Despite Illinois’ performance, sophomore Lizzy LeDuc finished third on the balance beam, and junior Mary Jane Horth placed in fifth on the uneven bars. “Our fans are everything to us,” head coach Kim Landrus said. “To host the NCAA Regional in Champaign, the entire event staff did a phenomenal job. There are so many alumni in town. It is so meaningful. As I said the other day, (the players) will remember this for a long time.” The Illini began the meet on their first bye. While Illinois was on bye, UCLA started off the meet on bars with 49.425 points, putting the team ahead. Olympic silver medalist Madison Kocian scored a 9.950, Pengpeng Lee nailed a 9.925 and

SOFTBALL In the bottom of the seventh, Sherlund reached first from a Minnesota error and then advanced to second on a wild pitch. Two batters later, Fleming hit the walkoff double to left field. “The difference today was that our leaders really stepped up,” said head coach Tyra Perry. “They were playing with a certain pride and focus that helped us get the win today.” In Sunday’s series finale, the Golden Gophers shut out the Illini, 4-0. Minnesota scored its first run off an RBI-single in the first inning. The Golden Gophers picked up another run in the third thanks to an RBI-double to left-center field. Illinois left runners on first and second with two outs in the third inning when Fleming popped out in foul territory. The Illini had another chance to potentially tie the game in the sixth when they loaded the bases
former Olympian Kyla Ross took home a 9.900. The Illini had a slow start in the second rotation with 49.000 but made up for the mistakes later on in the meet. On the uneven bars, senior Sarah Lyons gave the Illini their first points with a 9.800. Horth scored a 9.875 while freshman Karen How-

and sophomore Haylee Roe followed close behind after nailing their runs with 9.850s. Sophomore Brielle Nguyen and Howell scored 9.850 and 9.775, respectively. “We started off on bars and managed to add more momentum on beam,” Landrus said. “We had some great performances. They gave everything they could, and I couldn’t be more proud of them.” The team carried on to another bye along with Iowa. With 98.250, Illinois trailed UCLA by .200 points, putting the team in second place after the third rotation with Oregon State following at 98.100. During the fifth rotation, the Illini competed in the floor exercise. Roe tallied a 9.800 to start off for the Illini, and Buchanan earned the same score. Nguyen followed suit with a 9.825 while LeDuc received a 9.775. The competition came down to the final rotation — vault. The Illini were tied for third place with Oregon State.

with only one out, but twostraight groundouts kept them off the board. “We were a few hits and a few things in our mindset away from being the team we want to be,” Perry said. “We learned a lot about ourselves and what we need to work on.” The Golden Gophers capitalized on the Illini’s misfortunes the following inning. Junior Dani Wagner hit a two-run homer to give Minnesota the 4-0 lead, which Illinois did not recover from. After this weekend series, Illinois’ record is now 24-10 overall and 4-2 in conference play. The team will be on the road next, traveling to Evanston to take on Northwestern in a doubleheader Wednesday. “I think we have the capabilities to do what we please and go as far as we want,” said senior shortstop Ruby Rivera. “We have the strength, the brains and IQ to do so.”

MEN’S TENNIS
Illinois men’s tennis splits weekend series against Wisconsin and Minnesota BY MEGHAN REST STAFF WRITER
The Illinois men’s tennis team ended Wisconsin’s undefeated Big Ten record Sunday afternoon. The Illini moved to 10-9 overall and hold a 3-2 record in the Big Ten. Despite a brief rain delay during singles competition, the Illini pulled through after the match was tied 2-2. Freshman Gui Gomes and junior Aleks Vukic finished off their opponents to seal the Illini win. “I’m not sure anybody played great today, but on the road in conference (play) you have to expect the other team to play well and just weather the storm,” said head coach Brad Dancer. “Gui weathered a solid 20-minute storm from his opponent.” The Illini found success early on with Gomes and freshman Zeke Clark earning a doubles point, the duo’s 15th-straight point of the season. “Our doubles has been improving since about six weeks ago,” Dancer said. “We have a way to go but we are playing well.” Illinois also traveled to
Minnesota on Friday night and lost 4-3. Vukic and freshman Vuk Budic dominated the team of Eli Ogilvy and Justyn Levin in doubles. The freshman pair of Clark and Gomes sealed the doubles point for the Illini with a victory over Marino Alpeza and Josip Krstanovic. In singles, Illinois did not keep the winning momentum. Although No. 20 Vukic and freshman Aleks Kovacevic both collected wins for the Illini, the team fell in four out of six matches. Vukic has extended his 12-match win streak and was named Big Ten Athlete of the Week on Monday. However, singles competition was a different story for Illinois. Ogilvy topped Clark in three sets alongside teammate senior Julian Childers, who fell to Krstanovic in three as well. The two Golden Gopher victories tied the match. Minnesota’s Alpeza and Felix Corwin defeated Budic and Gomes to win the match for Minnesota. The Illini will host Iowa next Saturday, followed by Nebraska on Sunday.

Steve Cochran will join Fahey from Washington University. “Our staff has a great combination of coaching experience and expertise,” Fahey said in a press release.

The Illini victory increased their win streak to five matches and their record to 9-9 overall and 3-1 in conference play. The Hawkeyes fell to 13-4 overall and 3-2 in conference play. While Iowa lost the match, it did take the doubles point. The Hawkeyes won the No. 1 and No. 3 doubles matches. Iowa’s Zoe Douglas and Kristen Thoms won 6-4 against senior Alexis Casati and sophomore Daniela Pedraza Novak at the No. 3 position. At No.1 doubles, senior Louise Kwong and sophomore Ines Vias lost a tough one against the Hawkeyes. Elise Van Heuvelen and Adorabol Huckleby won the match, 7-6 (8-6). Even though the Illini lost the doubles point, they bounced back against Iowa in singles. They won the first three singles matches, all without a third set. Junior Grace Tapak started it off for the Illini, defeating Aimee Tarun at the No. 6 doubles position, 6-2, 6-2. Senior Maddie Baillon followed suit by winning 6-1, 6-2 at No.3 doubles against the Hawkeyes’ Anastasia Reimchen. S ophomore Jacly n Switkes then extended the match lead for the Illini to 3-1 after she defeated Adorabol Huckleby 6-2, 6-2 at No. 4 singles. Kwong clinched the match for the Illini at the No. 1 doubles. She won over Elise Van Heuvelen, 3-6, 6-2, 7-5. The Illini had already clinched the match, but Casati extended the lead to 5-1, winning over Douglas at No. 2 singles, 4-6, 6-2, 6-2. Iowa’s Montana Crawford put another point on the board for the Hawkeyes to end the match at 5-2. She beat Novak on Court Five, 6-7 (5-7), 6-2, 7-5 After defeating Iowa, Illinois traveled to Nebraska on
point shooting teams in the country. Prior to Illinois, Malone worked as an assistant coach at Texas, helping the Longhorns bring in multiple top-25 signing classes including four McDonald’s All-Americans. She helped Texas advance to five NCAA tournament appearances. Malone also served as an assistant coach at Nebraska from 2003 to 2007, helping take the Huskers to four postseason appearances. Kirkland has been the program’s recruiting coordinator for six seasons. She has helped bring in top25 classes for the Illini, including two high school All-Americans. In the past three seasons, Illinois has had an All-Big Ten Freshman honoree, further highlighting Kirkland’s recruiting skills. Before Illinois, Kirkland spent five years at Michigan, where she also helped in recruiting. She worked as an assistant coach with Eastern Michigan and Butler University, too. “Coach Malone and
Coach Kirkland’s coaching abilities at the Division I level are the best in the business,” Fahey said in press release. “Their familiarity with the Illini program is a big plus; I am glad to have them on board. Coach Cochran and I have worked closely with each other for several years; he is an outstanding post and game coach.” With 20 years of coaching experience, including four as a head coach, the St. Louis native will be a welcomed addition to the staff. Cochran has been all over the country, making stops at Maryville University where he helped the team receive a NCAA tournament bid. He has head coaching experience at Jefferson College and Concordia University Texas until he landed at Washington University, coaching under Fahey. “I am excited about the coaching team we have brought together,” Fahey said in a press release.

The Nutrition and Exercise Performance Lab is recruiting healthy middle-aged and elderly women (50-79 yrs) to participate in a nutrition and exercise study.
The time commitment for this study is 2 days - 1 screening to asses eligibility (~90 min) and 1 testing day (~7.5 hours). During the testing day, we will collect blood and muscle tissue for our analysis. Participants will be asked to perform light leg exercise and consume a nutritional beverage. Participants will spend most of the day in bed, and tissue samples are taken periodically throughout. Participants are welcome to watch television, read books, use laptops or other digital media, or rest. Upon completion of the testing day, individuals will be compensated $200 for their participation. Please contact Justin at NutritionExerciseResearch@gmail.com for further information.
