Former members of the UT chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon are continuing fraternity activities, despite being suspended for a number of serious hazing offenses. Their organization, operating under the name Texas Rho, recruited a new pledge class this fall, held fundraisers and hosted events without any University, national chapter or UT Interfraternity Council oversight after being suspended by the University and SAE national chapter. Texas Rho has now taken the stance of “an independent organization,” according to a press release. However, their organization continues to use the colors and letters of SAE Nationals. The Office of the Dean of Students and IFC have both released statements condemning the unaffiliated fraternity’s continued operations.

‘Fear factor like’ hazing

SAE Nationals suspended the UT chapter last November after receiving an anonymous tip to their hazing hotline, according to a Daily Texan report. Following the suspension,

‘ROGUE’ FRATERNITY CONTINUES OPERATIONS Texas Rho, comprised almost entirely of former UT SAE members, recruits new pledge class despite suspension for serious hazing offenses. UT’s Office of Student Affairs conducted its own investigation and suspended the chapter in March for multiple forms of hazing. Several SAE members said they personally experienced or witnessed hazing during fall 2017, according to the “Finding of Fact” section of Administrative Disposition Form obtained by The Daily Texan through a Texas Public Information Act request. The document details hazing acts such as “physical brutality” and members “being confined to uncomfortable spaces” inside something referred to by members as “the hatch” — a small, underground hole on the property of the chapter house.

The chapter’s adviser provided the Student Conduct Office with photographic evidence of “the hatch,” which was obtained by the Texan through a public information request. Texas Rho President Robert Perlick confirmed in an interview with The Texan that “the hatch” is present on their house grounds but said he didn’t know its purpose. Student Conduct also found reports of members required to “ingest ‘fear factor like’ substances/concoctions” and drink alcohol. Last year, a fraternity member at both Texas State University and Louisiana State University died after being forced to consume alcohol, according to police reports. “The boys this year have

been through a shit storm … and it’s just not right for young men to have to endure this crap ‘in the name of brotherhood.’ I’m talking a few hospital visits and mental scars to prove it,” according to an anonymous letter sent to Student Conduct in November 2017, which was used as evidence to suspend the chapter and obtained by The Texan through an information request. Economics senior Perlick, who was accompanied to the interview by public relations representative Lia Truitt, said he couldn’t confirm or deny the hazing detailed in the document. “If there was a member who said this happened to him, I

completely trust a member to say that took place, as unfortunate as that is,” Perlick said. Andel Fils-Aime, director of Student Conduct and Academic Integrity, said the Office of Dean of Students doesn’t believe the hazing were isolated incidents. “There’s never going to be a case where there’s a one-off,” Fils-Aime said. “Had it potentially been a one-off situation, the organization would likely still have some kind of relationship where they could return sooner … and, if that were the case, it would have been reflected in the information that we gathered.”

Severing all ties

Texas Rho has recently attempted to publicly separate itself from the national chapter of SAE, despite being engaged in a legal dispute with SAE Nationals regarding their use of SAE Nationals branding. In an Oct. 1 press release, Texas Rho declared its independence from SAE. “While there has been some misunderstanding and misrepresentation about who we are, we want to make it clear that Texas Rho is not affiliated with

Austin Catholic parishes respond to national sexual abuse crises By Raga Justin @RagaJus

Catholic parishes near UT are offering counseling services and training to prevent sexual abuse in response to an August Pennsylvania grand jury report, which revealed statewide sexual abuse by hundreds of Catholic priests and the resulting cover-up by church officials. St. Austin Catholic Parish and the University Catholic Center are two

popular churches for Catholic students. St. Austin, which has an estimated 300 to 400 student attendees during weekend services, released an open letter after the August report came out. The letter, written by the Rev. Charles Kullmann, proposed a parish mission be held Oct. 22, focused on addressing concerns. “(The letter) was an attempt to sum up some of the feelings that are going around and give voice to them in reflection on where we’re at right now,” Kullmann said.

STEER CLEAR!

TEXAS ATHLETICS GAMEDAY CLEAR BAG POLICY

In the Pennsylvania report, 300 Catholic priests were implicated for the sexual abuse of more than 1,000 minors across the state over a period of 70 years. Bishops and cardinals, high-ranking officials in the Catholic church, were implicated for covering up those abuses. Kullmann said St. Austin will be conducting extensive training for church staff to identify and report abuse. However, the training should not be limited to members of the ministry, he said.

“Unfortunately this isn’t just a problem in the church,” Kullmann said. “The more people who are out looking and know what to look for, the better off we’re all going to be. Rather than just wringing our hands and feeling bad about it, we want to do something helpful.” The Rev. Larry Rice, a priest at the University Catholic Center, said there are several policies in place to protect children, students and vulnerable adults from abuse. He said since 2002, ministry members at the

UCC have undergone extensive background checks. In addition, offices have glass doors and adults are not allowed to be alone with children. To protect students, security cameras are installed around the facility, Rice said. Rice said he had extensive meetings with student leaders to discuss their concerns after the report came out earlier this semester. He said Catholic students, while upset, are not likely to become disillusioned with

Editorial note: This article is part of a series on local candidates. Although she accomplished a lot during her first two terms on the Austin City Council, incumbent council member Kathie Tovo said she is running for re-election, because there is still more she would still more like to get done. “I’m really proud of what I’ve accomplished so far, but I have more work to do,” current Mayor Pro Tem Tovo said. “The city has undergone some major changes, and District 9 is at the epicenter of a lot of those. We also have some

big bonds on the agenda this November, so the decisions ahead of the council are large ones. I believe this is a time that calls for experienced leadership.” Tovo is running to represent District 9, which covers Downtown, West Campus and parts of south Austin. Her platform focuses on ending homelessness in the community and promoting affordable housing. To combat homelessness, Tovo said she will secure more funding for initiatives she helped put in place, such as the Homeless Outreach Street Team, which connects homeless individuals with services to help them get back on their feet. “District 9 has the highest

Mark Pulliam created the Facebook page “Stop the Insanity at UT” in response to what he called an information “void” surrounding campus events. The retired lawyer and UT alumnus said no major news outlet was highlighting instances of liberal bias or excessive political correctness on campus at his alma mater, so he created a group to serve that purpose. “The media, the newspapers, are very liberal and pro-UT,” Pulliam said. “Everything either doesn’t get covered or gets covered with a particular spin.” The page, which was launched last month, is currently followed by 653 people. Pulliam said once the page reaches 1,000 followers, he will move into the “action phase” of the project. “That’s when I start encouraging people to send emails to the Governor, who appoints the Board of Regents who run the University, and perhaps start contacting the Board of Regents themselves

or (UT President) Greg Fenves or the new chancellor, James Milliken,” Pulliam said. Pulliam’s criticisms of UT include the way it has handled past Title IX cases and a recently announced diversity initiative, which he believes will implement racial hiring quotas. “UT is becoming a politically correct, liberal campus that does not reflect the attitudes and beliefs of the overwhelming

majority of people who are Texas voters and taxpayers, and to me, that is wrong,” Pulliam said. “My goal is to educate the alumni of UT who share my concerns and build up this number of followers to a critical mass.” Saurabh Sharma, chairman of UT’s Young Conservatives of Texas Chapter and a friend of Pulliam’s, said alumni are frequently kept in the dark about certain things

She also oversaw the creation of the council’s College Student Commission. “My team has always been very active and engaged with students,” Tovo said. “I am very much about giving students’ voices a platform at the council while also moving their initiatives forward into real action that can make meaningful change.

percentage of individuals who are experiencing homelessness in the whole city,” Tovo said. “But to end homelessness we need many more millions than we currently have. I hope to partner with private businesses or social service providers, as well as encourage individual community members to come forward and help out.” As more people move to Austin, Tovo said it is important to preserve existing housing and keep it affordable for current residents.

They are wise enough to make that distinction.” Mechanical engineering senior Joe Zaghrini said he felt as though younger Catholics have grown up in an era when the Catholic church is often viewed with suspicion. “I guess I kind of regard

previous target of Pulliam’s criticism and the director of UT’s Institute for Urban Policy Research and Analysis, said he doesn’t think “Stop the Insanity at UT” is just about elevating conservative voices. “(The page) is an ironic and unfortunate attempt to stifle the expression of those individuals whose progressive views differ from conservative views,” Cokley said in an email. “On college campuses intellectual diversity is important, and different viewpoints should be expressed and robustly debated on their merits. This Facebook page characterizes progressive and social justice views as ‘forcing biased narratives and agendas,’ and appears to want to eliminate all such views from UT’s campus.” But Pulliam, who graduated from the UT School of Law in 1980, said he started the page to maintain the integrity of an institution he loves. “I’m doing what I’m doing because I love the University so much that I don’t want to see it ruined to become some caricature of a University,” Pulliam said. “We can do better than that.”

everyone with that level of skepticism and I don’t think priests should be exempt from that,” Zaghrini said. “At the same time, it doesn’t really change my overall approach, which is to be careful because people can be deceiving, whether or not they’re priests.” Aaron Hannie, president of the Longhorn Catholic Council, said moving forward Catholic students need to be vocal in addressing issues of abuse. “It’s important for us to act as the catalyst, because we are the ones that are taking in the tradition right now,” accounting senior Hannie said. “One day we will be — and in some cases are already — the leaders.”

SAE or the Interfraternity Council,” Perlick said in the press release. The SAE Greek letters still hang on the house entrance. The name Texas Rho has been associated with the UT SAE chapter since its conception as its official charter name, or its identifying name within the SAE Nationals organization. Texas Rho members currently live in the former SAE house. “The fact that they’re using our name is just not congruent with what they’re trying to portray because they’re still operating with our colors, with our branding, with everything,” said Johnny Sao, SAE Nationals director of communications. Sao referred to Texas Rho as a “rogue” chapter of SAE but said if the Texas Rho were to rebrand itself and use a different name, SAE Nationals would have “no issue” with that, Sao said. In a letter to UT SAE alumni, the national chapter said they believe Texas Rho members are misguided thinking that ignoring the suspension will someday lead to a “realignment with national” for the group. The letter went on to detail how the earliest SAE could open a UT chapter again would be in at least four years after Texas Rho disbands. However, Perlick said Texas Rho is wholly independent, citing Texas Rho’s nonprofit status, new governing body and new insurance. But — only excluding last year’s graduating seniors and two students — all of the former members of UT’s SAE chapter are in Texas Rho, Perlick said. In an attempt to stop hazing, Perlick said Texas Rho’s new Behavioral and Financial Responsibility Agreement has many measures and “strict, ethical codes” each member was required to sign. Under these new rules,

UT alumni finds success with country music By Heather Kirby @HeatherKirby97

After releasing his first single on his graduation day in May, 2018 UT alumnus Tyler Dial packed up his things and moved to Nashville to build his career as a country music singer. “I couldn’t think of a better time to do it than the day I graduated,” Dial said. Dial released an EP one week later. Within the month, he had been featured in Rolling Stone magazine for his first song “Truth in the Way” and was included in the magazine’s list of top 10 new “need to know” country music singers. Dial started pursuing music while still a full-time student. Despite the challenges of pursuing a degree while also focusing on music, Dial said the balance between school, social life and building a music career was not hard to find. “You kind of do have to prioritize,” Dial said. “All

I really did was music and school. It actually wasn’t that bad, probably because I was just so passionate about music.” With a bachelor’s degree in marketing, Dial said he planned to use his business knowledge to get ahead in the music market. Although he always had his sights on Nashville, Dial said he took advantage of the music opportunities Austin offered. “Nashville was always on the horizon for me,” Dial said. “One of the cool things about being in Texas was that we got to play Sixth Street on the weekends, play four-hour sets and play the fraternity and sorority scene down in Austin.” BBVA Compass offered Dial a position as brand ambassador in 2016 and sponsored a United States tour this summer. Dial also performed at Nashville’s annual CMA Fest in June. Dial recently signed a publishing contract in Nashville with Melissa Spillman, also a 2004 UT marketing

alumna and creative director of publishing and production at Neon Cross Music. Spillman supplies Dial with a writing team and functions as a media and business platform for Dial to publish his music. Spillman said she and Tyler share a bond as UT alumni, which supplements their dynamic as they work together. “It’s always fun to work with people who share a common history, like UT and the live music scene and that culture from the state of Texas and Austin in particular,” Spillman said. “I think we were automatically on the same page no matter what from the beginning.” Marketing junior Allie Yoder said she listens to country music and feels proud when she hears about UT alumni succeeding. “Being a Longhorn is something that we all have a lot of pride in,” Yoder said. “Being able to claim that they’re a fellow Longhorn and they went to my school makes me proud.”

“The hatch” used to confine UT SAE chapter pledges as part of a hazing ritual in the SAE chapter house. Texas Rho banned the serving of hard liquor, hires licensed bartenders to card and serve guests and uses a third-party security for safety.

“The worst of all worlds”

For Peter Driscoll, IFC’s president, Texas Rho represents “the worst of all worlds” when it comes suspended fraternities. “Everyday SAE operates is a day that they’re spitting in the face of the University and IFC and the Nationals,” said Driscoll, science and technology management and government senior. “As long as they stand, it’s just a shining example of how you can do whatever you want and get away with it.” In response to learning about Texas Rho’s pledge recruitment this fall, the IFC Executive Board released a statement to condemn unrecognized fraternities and to “strongly recommend” students involved with Greek life not interact with Texas Rho due to their previous hazing offenses. In addition to its written statement, IFC is working with Texas University Panhellenic Council to enforce

the Panhellenic policy of sororities not being allowed to have formal association with unregistered fraternities, said UPC President Evana Flores. Fils-Aime, the University student conduct director, called joining an unrecognized fraternity a “significant risk” with immediate “health and safety concerns.” “If you’re attempting to join an organization that doesn’t have certification or an accredited body, you’re wasting significant time and money with the amount and effort you’re putting into an organization that — in reality — doesn’t even exist,” Fils-Aime said. Fils-Aime said Texas Rho has no affiliation with the University and compared joining an unrecognized fraternity to a suspended student continuing to attend classes. “You’re kind of delusional in what you’re going about and wasting your time because you’re not a part of the university,” Fils-Aime said. “The only one you’re fooling is yourself.” Megan Menchaca contributed to this report.

Ride safe when using ride-hailing apps By Denise Emerson Columnist

Two women entered what they believed to be their ride-hail after a night of drinking. When they arrived at their first destination, one of the women stepped out to help her friend get out of the car. Instead, she was knocked to the side of the road as the driver sped away with her incapacitated friend. That driver was arrested after being accused of assaulting the two women. This is only one of the many recent ride-hail incidents in Austin. Uber, RideAustin and Lyft have become extremely popular ride-hailing apps among students who need a safe ride out or back home. Many students don’t have cars, and bus routes can be confusing and inconsistent. However, many ride-hailing app drivers have been accused of sexual assault in Austin in the last three years. Students should keep safety in mind when using these apps. Over the years, ride-hailing apps have become so commonplace that people don’t question who’s driving anymore. SURE Ride, a program at UT that aims to provide safe transportation for students, partnered with Lyft to provide a limited free service. The free rides operate from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. and have to originate on campus and end in approved zones. When the University partners with a service, students believe that this service is safe for them to use. UT stu-

dents who use ride-hailing apps can’t let the apps’ popularity desensitize them from the risks. As more sexual assaults have piled up, these apps continue to prosper.

It’s important to take precautions and be aware of the dangers of ride-hailing apps.”

This past summer, the driver who sped away with the aforementioned incapacitated woman was also accused by multiple women of sexual assault, kidnapping and theft. He was posing as a driver in these instances, but did have driver accounts with at least one ride-hailing company. Similarly, in fall of 2017, two men who worked for Lyft and RideAustin were arrested on sexual assault charges. Briana Reyes, a rhetoric and writing freshman, said she uses ride-hailing apps out of convenience but feels afraid when she does. “I actually had to take a Lyft from Riverside at night, so I was by myself,” Reyes said. “So yeah, I’ve been scared.” RideAustin, a local nonprofit, provides female riders with the option to

choose female drivers. Many students assume RideAustin is more expensive than Uber or Lyft, but actually, the app lowered its rates to be a penny cheaper than its competitors in 2017. “I would probably do that if I was put into that situation where I had to drive home from a shady area at night,” Reyes said. “If it’s only like a dollar more — what’s a dollar for my safety?” Anthropology senior Allie Melson uses ride-hailing apps when going out with friends. She doesn’t ever ride alone, but said she would if she had to. She also carries a taser. “It’s a small, pink taser,” Melson said. “You can charge it by plugging it into an outlet — very convenient.” Both women said they were unaware of RideAustin’s female-only driver option and neither had heard about the most recent ride-hailing sexual assault cases in Austin. It’s important to take precautions and be aware of the dangers of ride-hailing apps. Self-defense tools, such as mace or tasers, should be in every young woman’s purse or backpack. Don’t accept water or food from your drivers, and make sure to check that your drivers’ name and the license plate is the same as the ones on the app. If you’re out drinking, try to get a friend to be a designated driver or at least have a designated sober friend to ride with you. Emerson is a journalism and radio-television-film sophomore from San Antonio.

Tolerance of political opposites should be a given By Brooks Johnson Columnist

I had no intentions of making myself seem outlandish, but that’s the way it must have sounded. At our weekly opinion department pitch meeting, we proposed what we would like to write about for the next week. I suggested writing about the lack of a conservative voice on campus and the isolation which many students may feel due to their political beliefs. Blank stares, a hint of giggling and confusion were the reactions that met me. Why would you want to write about — you know — them? It was as if I had made mention of a taboo subject. Therein lies the problem. For a university that prides itself on its openness and diversity, an entire population of students at UT are often being treated as if their opinions should not exist. The four years at UT serve as a time for many liberal students — often those from the conservative suburbs of Texas — to become immersed with like-minded liberal peers. However, this environment is drastically different from many real world post-college careers and endeavors, where the blend of ideologies becomes blurrier. Failing to acclimate and associate with peers of opposing views can be socially detrimental in the long run, both in careers and personal spheres. “I feel that because the attitude of tolerance towards a conservative voice is low here at UT, I have to be careful about what I say and write,” said law student Jordan Cope, who led the College of Conservative Arts and College of Liberal Arts movement last spring. “Sometimes I feel that even professors can lean a certain direction that doesn’t encourage other students to speak up.” Over 32 percent of Republican respondents in a nationwide 2017 Gallup poll claimed that professors tend to favor a strong liberal ideology. Because of this, it is likely that conservative students feel they have smaller voices in higher education than their liberal counterparts.

alexandra vanderhider

Fact or not, this belief augments a conservative student’s point of view that their ideology is systemically opposed at UT and other universities nationwide. Some students from the opposing side of the political spectrum are not fully blind to this, however. Aware of their overwhelming majority at UT, some acknowledge that this majority can potentially be inhibiting to their conservative classmates. “On a campus where their opinion isn’t the majority, I suppose it can be difficult for them to speak their mind,” said journalism freshman Claire Tichy, a member of University Democrats. “But they should be tolerated no matter what they believe, because it’s a fundamental part of our democracy.” This concept of tolerance must be reciprocal

for it to be effective. In order for civil discussion to prevail, tolerance must come from both sides and be supported no matter the issue or subject. “We don’t have to agree on everything, but politics should never define relationships,” Cope said. “We need to be able to civilly engage with people who oppose our ideologies in a productive way and tolerate each other no matter our differences.” Regardless of which side of the political aisle you stand on, tolerate opinions that are opposite to your own and have empathy toward those who may not have as loud of a voice as your own. In doing this, stronger campus cohesion will be the ultimate outcome. Johnson is a journalism freshman from San Francisco, California.

A dollar may not seem like much, and 50 cents may feel like it’s not even worth it. But that’s the thing about saving money, it adds up, and in a good way. Saving money as a college student can be really difficult, especially when tuition, housing, food and countless other expenses snowball. Students need to make a habit of carrying their IDs around with them and asking about existing student discounts at the register while also consistently checking student discounts apps such as TasteBud and Hooked. Digging my student ID card out of my wallet feels like a pain that also poses an unnecessary hassle for the employees and people waiting in line behind me. However, the 10 seconds it takes for me to ask for a student discount, pull out my ID and put it back in my wallet is worth the large amount of money I could save over time. It can even encourage students behind me to do the same and save money for themselves. Student discounts undeniably exist for good reason. All over the world, students work hard to pay for higher education and the ridiculous number of expenses that factor into obtaining a degree. Students, especially those who are responsible for supporting themselves in any financial capacity, can significantly lessen their financial burden over time by seeking out student discounts.

Start carrying your student ID around with you, asking if student discounts exist and using free discount apps. Asking never hurts, and saving money always helps.”

Ivana Párraga, an economics and urban studies sophomore, uses student discounts fairly regularly, including those offered by Greyhound and Tidal, but admits she could be more active in seeking out discounts and being financially smart. “When you’re a student, a lot of times that’s like a full-time job which has no income and only has costs,” Párraga said. “School’s really important (in) bettering the future for everybody in society, so we need to try and help people stay in school.” Areas around UT, notably West and North Campus, are filled with businesses and restaurants that offer various discounts to students. Dustin Braaten, an employee at The Pizza Press on 26th street, said their UT student discount is the same one they offer military personnel — 10 percent off. “If you get a $9.47 pizza, it shrinks it down to $8.77 or something like that,” Braaten said. According to Braaten, even though the restaurant is right across from the school, students must still ask and present an ID in order for the discount to apply. “If the student asks, we’ll gladly do it,” Braaten said. While it may not seem like much, even a 10 percent discount can help a student stay on budget. Student discount apps such as TasteBud and Hooked help students save money at their favorite restaurants. Regardless of whether you have a job or not, if you’re putting yourself through college, or if you’re lucky enough to be supported by your parents, every college student has the potential to benefit from fiscally responsible spending habits. “If you’re a college student, you’re pinching pennies trying to get by,” Braaten said. “It’s nice to see where you can benefit from it, too. Kids need to start capitalizing on saving money, especially when you go to a place like UT and you’re taking all these classes.” The only people who get to enjoy student discounts are students, and students only stay students for so long. If you’re interested in saving money, as every student should be, start carrying your student ID around with you, asking if student discounts exist and using free discount apps. Asking never hurts, and saving money always helps. Caldwell is a Latin American studies and journalism sophomore from College Station.

Each team within the worker’s assembly elects its own manager and operates autonomously. Beth Beutel, president of Black Star’s Board of Directors, said that the cooperatively owned and worker self-managed structure of Black Star allows it be more than just a brewpub. “(Black Star is) a business that reflects values of the community and that builds value for the community,” Beutel said. “Black Star Co-op leads in the creation of a world with inspired craft beer, a thriving cooperative community, a resilient food system and a just society.” Beutel said that treating the employees at Black Star with utmost appreciation is a major part of contributing to the community. “We’ve strived to pay a living wage, we have a worker

effects of narrow margins in the past and the Austin community came to the rescue. “We saw in January 2017 that we were in a pretty tight cash position and appealed to our member owners for support,” Byram said. “It became a citywide rescue plan. We had a huge amount of people come out here and give us a lot of support.” Now, Byram says Black Star is experiencing more consistent profit. The restaurant industry continues to be difficult to maneuver, but Black Star has experienced two quarters of profit, more than they’ve seen in a number of years. Looking forward, the brewpub is hosting a watch party for the debate between Sen. Ted Cruz and Congressman Beto O’Rourke on Oct. 16. They are also hosting a benefit release for a house beer on Oct. 10 during which $1 from each pint sold will be donated to Habitat for Humanity and used to build a house for a local family.

self-governance model, and those are things that, I think, lead to a world that is more just,” Beutel said. Roderick Morales, a member of the worker’s assembly on the pub and business teams, says that this availability for self-governance is behind his devotion to Black Star. “I love the fact that there is really no owner to report to that is a singular person. We’re all going to work together. We’re all going to make things happen,” Morales said. “I love that if I have an idea I can figure out a plan on how to do it and we can make it happen. I have a voice here. That really means a lot to me and that’s what keeps me here.” But paying high wages and producing locally sourced, high quality food comes with a steep price from a business standpoint. Margins in the restaurant industry are tight even without the extra pay and food quality. Christopher Byram, assistant brewer and board staff liaison, said that Black Star experienced the

Longhorns survive late TCU push Five straight Texas points ended the match against the Horned Frogs. By Wills Layton @willsdebeast

exas fans sat on the edges of their seats as No. 4 Texas found itself in a decisive fifth set against an unranked TCU team on the road. After blowing a two-match lead, the Longhorns clawed their way back from a 12-10 deficit in the fifth set. With a 14-12 lead over the Horned Frogs, freshman outside hitter Logan Eggleston spiked the ball right through the heart of the TCU defense. The game point allowed the Longhorns to escape Fort Worth with a four-game win streak and undefeated conference record in tact. The Longhorns continued their strong play, utilizing the five-set win to improve to 3–0 in Big 12 and 9–3 overall. While Eggleston put the game on ice, Texas’ win featured a plethora of impressive performances by the team’s freshman core and its veteran leaders. “We’ve been playing three or four freshman at a time and that’s a lot of youth,” head coach Jerritt Elliott said during a player availability last week. “They have come in and been a really good group in terms of their composure in the way they interact and compete. They’ve given the upashley ephraim | the daily texan file Redshirt freshman middle blocker Brionne Butler elevates for a kill against Texas State on Sept. 7, 2018 at Gregory Gym.

perclassmen a lot of confidence.” During the opening set, the Longhorns quickly jumped out to an early lead, but the Horned Frogs responded late by mounting a comeback of six straight points to tie the score at 23. Texas wasn’t fazed, though, putting the first set away, 25-23. The second match was close from the start, as both teams were giving their all between the net. TCU tried to climb back into the match, grabbing a quick 13-9 lead, while Texas had other plans. The Longhorns fought back from the early deficit and took the set, 25-22. The third set was a disappointing one for Texas and one that would change the course of the match. The Longhorns found themselves trailing early and could not rally from behind. They would drop the set, 25-20, still needing one more set to clinch the victory. Texas played strong during the fourth set, but failed to close out the win once again as TCU took a lead early and never let go. After dropping two sets in a row, Texas would need to pull out all the stops in order to return home with a victory. The Longhorns saved their best for last, though. In the final set, Texas made a late rally to secure its fourth Big 12 conference win of the season. This also represented the third five-set victory of the season, and the second in the last four matches for Texas. “We just sat ourselves down and decided that we needed to come out the way we did in the first two sets,” Eggleston said after the game. “It’s great that we talked about it, then executed it as well.” The Longhorns now return to the 40 Acres where they prepare to put their undefeated conference record on the line at home against Iowa State on Oct. 6.
