JMU may have installed the steam power plant to be environmentally friendly, but that doesn’t mean it’s making many friends.

� e clamorous noise that comes along with the plant has many JMU community members second-guessing whether the constant interruptions are worth being green.

� e steam plant has been in testing mode since November, letting o� excess steam in large, con-centrated streams from the smoke stack. � e exact date of when testing will end is unknown, said Don Egle, university spokesman.

NATIONObama administration denies permit for Keystone pipelineTribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration has denied a permit for the contro-versial Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada, asserting that it didn’t “have su� cient time to obtain the information nec-essary to assess whether the project, in its current state, is in the national interest,” the State Department announced Wednesday.

� e decision is sure to pro-long a bitter political � ght that has raged for months over the pipeline’s fate.

For Republicans, the oil industry and the Chamber of Commerce, Keystone has become a one-word campaign slogan: synonymous with

many of the themes of govern-ment regulatory overreach they have tried over the course of the year to pin on President Barack Obama.

For environmentalists and others in the Democratic base, the administration’s decision to deny the permit reflects a resolve and a willingness to stand up to big business they have long asked Obama to show.

The announcement, which doesn’t preclude the pipeline company from reapplying, comes in response to a -day deadline Congress imposed in late December on the decision-making process for the permit as part of a deal to extend a payroll-tax break and unem-ployment benefits for two months.

Wednesday’s decision makes official what the administra-tion has said from the outset: that under current law, it can-not accelerate the permitting process, especially in light of the need for additional envi-ronmental reviews of a new path for the pipeline through Nebraska.

“� is announcement is not a judgment on the merits of the pipeline, but the arbitrary nature of a deadline that pre-vented the State Department from gathering the informa-tion necessary to approve the project and protect the Ameri-can people,” Obama said in a statement. “I’m disappointed that Republicans in Congress forced this decision, but it does not change my administration’s commitment to American-made energy that creates jobs and reduces our dependence on oil.”

House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said the deci-sion is another example of how Obama’s policies are mak-ing the American economy “worse.”

“� e president is selling out American jobs for politics,” Boehner said. “� is is not the end of the � ght. Republicans in Congress will continue to push this because it’s good for our country, and it’s good for our economy, and it’s good for the American people, especially those who are looking for work.”

Man pleads guilty to heroin conspiracy

According to the Associated Press, Federal prosecutors in Alexandria reported a Ghana man has pleaded guilty to conspiring to import heroin into the United States.

Edward Macauley, 61, entered the plea Tuesday. On April 6, he will be sentenced to a minimum of 10 years in prison.

He led a heroin trafficking organization based in Ghana that recruited drug runners to smuggle heroin in carry-on bags and wigs into the U.S. through Dulles International Airport, according to court documents.

The sharpest decline was in student funding, which is due to the recession. It is thought that public research universities can make up for the lack of funding by raising tuition.

For ryan, For lives

by liz dsurnEycontributing writer

Eric Croucher knew asking his friends and family to consider donating their bone marrow was asking for a lot, but for him, it was a small price to pay for the life of his longtime friend.

In April, Croucher, a junior nursing major and pres-ident of Sigma Phi Epsilon Fraternity, watched his friend, Ryan Strasdauskas, become increasingly weak, bruise easily and have constant nosebleeds.

“I was involved in a fraternity, my grades were up and I was having the time of my life,” said Strasdauskas, a junior economics major at the University of Maryland. “I got so tired, but I just thought it was because I was doing too much.”

Strasdauskas realized his condition was more seri-ous when he nearly passed out after going up a flight of stairs.

He went to the school’s health center and had blood samples taken. Doctors told him he was extremely ane-mic, but they didn’t know why.

“No one knew what was wrong with me,” Strasdaus-kas said.

They thought they had a lead. He had bone marrow biopsy because it was they believed he had a virus.

The doctor called him an hour and a half later with the diagnosis that would change Strasdauskas’ life: he had acute lymphatic leukemia.

This diagnosis was only the beginning of a long road of medications and endless rounds of chemotherapy during his three-month hospital stay.

This philanthropy was recently selected by JMU to become an official organization.

“It’s horrible to see someone so strong get so weak,” Croucher said. “He was an all-star [soccer player], and

it was insane to see him just taken down.”Croucher asked what he could do to help. Strasdaus-

kas said the best chance he had to live was finding a bone marrow match.

It can take more than a year to find a match, Stras-dauskas’ sister Brittany explained, but people can get tested at hospitals with a mouth swab.

The test can be expensive, though. The cost of almost $100 for paperwork deters many people from getting tested.

This is where the Be The Match Foundation came to help. Be The Match Foundation is a nonprofit organi-zation dedicated to helping patients receive the bone marrow or umbilical cord blood transplants they need, according to the National Marrow Donor Program.

Croucher then created the Fight Leukemia Founda-tion to help Strasdauskas and others with leukemia. He worked with Strasdauskas’ older sisters, Katelyn, 23, and Brittany, 26, to raise money and awareness.

On May 28, they helped organize a huge fundrais-er in Strasdauskas’ hometown of Fallston, Md.,where they hosted a soccer tournament, a 5K run and a silent auction.

Three hundred people from his high school, JMU and the Be The Match Foundation went to support Stras-dauskas, raising more than $20,000.

“Everyone has a connection to cancer, whether it is their friend or their grandmother,” Croucher said. “Everyone put in a helping hand.”

On Oct. 7, Strasdauskas got a match from a donor in Germany, and he received his bone marrow transfu-sion. The donor gave two quarts of blood drawn from his own bone marrow. Then it was transferred to Stras-dauskas, who at the time had no bone marrow in his body because it was depeleted from chemotherapy and radiation.

“We started to see the light at the end of the tunnel,” Brittany said. “It was the beginning of the end.”

Although Strasdauskas is cancer free, he’s still fight-ing to get the his strength back. In honor of his friend’s fight, Croucher created the Fight Leukemia Foundation to continue his fundraising.

He’s currently planning an “orange-out” game (leu-kemia’s awareness color is orange) at JMU, along with several other fundraising events such as proceeds nights, raffles and sending out donation letters to fam-ily and friends.

Darren Appanah, a junior finance and accounting double major, felt strongly about the cause and joined Croucher in his fundraising efforts.

“Eric told me a lot about his best friend,” Appanah said. “I didn’t really know much about leukemia and the treatments for it. It sounds really brutal.”

Appanah also wants to help raise more awareness of leukemia to students.

Leukemia “hits a lot of people in our generation and age group,” he said. “There isn’t much funding for it either. If some people had to get tested for it right now, a lot wouldn’t have the money for it.”

Meetings for the Fight Leukemia Foundation are held on Mondays at 9 p.m. in ISAT 236. For more informa-tion, follow @JMUFightLeukemia. Those who want to be involved in spreading awareness may also donate to Be The Match Foundation.

It’s been a long road for Strasdauskas, but thanks to all the support, he can now keep his head up.

“I have a new outlook on life. It was a horrible expe-rience, but now that I’m looking back on it, I don’t ask why anymore,” Strasdauskas said. “It is what it is.”

Teach for America rates increaseby laura wEEksThe Breeze

At the start of his fifth-grade year, Kevin Garcia spoke one word of Eng-lish per minute. By year’s end, he was chatting with classmates at 111 words per minute.

This is the story of a child salvaged from the ruins of one of America’s crumbling education systems.

The heroes are passionate teachers, yes, but most of them didn’t graduate with an education degree. They didn’t spend four years lectured on child development or gathering experience during practicum.

JMU alumnus and political science major Brant Underwood (’10) was hooked on Teach for America as soon as he heard about it during a class his sophomore year.

“When [the recruiter] told me his story about what he was able to do with his group of children, I knew that that was what I wanted to do,” Under-wood said. “I wanted to be involved and really change children’s lives.”

In 2011, 24 JMU graduates left with diplomas in hand and with Teach for America on the brain.

That number is up from only eight recruits in 2008.

Nichole Prickett (Virginia Tech ’08), recruitment manager for TFA at JMU, Virginia Tech and VCU, attributes the escalation to a greater awareness of the program on campus and “around the issue of educational equality,” Prickett explained via email.

Perhaps surprisingly, neither Prick-ett nor the JMU recruits interviewed cited the struggling economy as a motive for joining, in contrast to some quoted in a 2008 article, when the economy had taken a sudden plunge.

Currently, TFA works with JMU’s Career and Academic Planning, but Prickett said the program is “building” to eventually work with the multicul-tural offices as well.

To recruit potential teachers, TFA pitches its two-year service program to classes across campus and by speak-ing to students one-on-one.

“When I meet with people one-on-one,” Prickett said, “I really explain to them how it fits into their career plan.”

Open to all majors, TFA guaran-tees members a free master’s degree, paychecks from the school district in which they teach and a $5,000 Ameri-Corps grant to pay back educational loans.

Underwood, Garcia’s teacher and mentor, teaches at a low-income ele-mentary school in Las Vegas.

Despite day-to-day challenges in the classroom, “I plan on going beyond my commitment here in Las Vegas for a third — if not a fourth — year,” Underwood said.

Beth Lucas (JMU ’10) was also sold on TFA by a recruiter. Unlike a major-ity of members, Lucas majored in interdisciplinary liberal studies, with a minor in elementary education.

“I chose Teach for America because my original, ultimate career goal is to be a teacher,” she said.

Coupled with that ambition was the desire to work with a “disadvantaged demographic.”

Lucas, now a first-year teacher with TFA, teaches second grade in inner city D.C. According to Lucas, more than 90 percent of enrolled students receive free or reduced lunch, “which

means their families fall under the poverty line,” Lucas explains. Her school is also 100 percent black.

Lucas describes her first year as a “culture shock” and “a struggle,” but “rewarding moments come every day.”

“The constant love and constant hugs from my kids is really rewarding because I know how much they care about me and how happy they are that they have a teacher who cares about them,” she said.

One of the most significant mea-sures of growth members witness is their students’ jump in reading levels.

One of the most memorable statis-tics TFA pushes is that regions in the U.S. use third-grade reading levels to predict how big their prison popula-tion will be, according to Cassie Potler, a 2010 JMU graduate and second-year teacher in Prince George’s County Public Schools.

“Why not just teach them to read in third grade so that they can be produc-tive members of society, instead of just assuming that they’re going to fail in life?” Potler said.

Underwood’s fifth-grade class has just finished reading “Number the Stars” by Lois Lowry, a novel written through the eyes of a 10-year-old girl during the Holocaust.

“They found this amazing attraction to social justice during World War II,” Underwood said.

In a classroom where one student reads at a 12th-grade level and anoth-er at a first-grade level, Underwood’s biggest challenge is “closing the read-ing gap.”

The majority of Lucas’ stu-dents have jumped two reading levels since the start of the school year.

The 2012 presidential pri-mary is quickly approaching. The leader in the Gallup Poll is Mitt Romney, followed by Newt Gingrich, Rick San-torum, Ron Paul and Rick Perry.

“I believe Barack Obama will be reelected,” Pillis said. “I think that the GOP, the Republican Party will real-ly have to band together because right now the can-didates seem focused on Mitt Romney.”

The College Democrats and College Republicans also have strong feelings about Obama’s performance and the upcoming campaign.

Melanie Goff, a senior political science major, was president for the College Democrats from 2010 to 2011. She believes that the success of the 2008 Obama campaign can’t be replicated.

Goff adds that many saw the campaign as a one-time success and most likely won’t happen again. He ran against Arizona Sen. John McCain and won with 53 percent of the nation’s vote and the

title of America’s first black president.

“I think that in itself set a precedent that I don’t think anyone that worked on Obama’s campaign or under-stands it thinks that it will be exactly the same in 2012,” Goff said.

Daniel Wilson, a senior political science and public policy administration double major, is the College Republi-cans’ spokesman.

Wilson, who voted for McCain in 2008, believes it’s time for a new president.

“I feel like Obama is taking

the country on the wrong path, he believes in a more Western European model, including large government,” Wilson said.

He also thinks that Obama didn’t handle the economy very well.

“The first mistake was the $800 million stimulus pack-age, which was basically putting money down the rat hole,” Wilson said. “This makes things worse by put-ting a larger hole in deficit.”

As far as original expec-tations go, he wasn’t very surprised or moved during the past few years.

“It’s a bit of what I expected — a pretty far left guy,” Wil-son said. “He uses wording to hide his far, left-wing beliefs, and his left governing is what I expected. I didn’t think he’d be a complete socialist, but he is certainly a liberal dem-ocrat,” Wilson said.

Though Virginia’s prima-ry isn’t until March 6, South Carolina is next on the list, to be held Saturday.

SGA cutting some club budgets

Inspiring anecdotes aren’t the only attraction for appli-cants; the program’s financial promises. Brittany Mrvan, a senior psychology major, noted healthcare benefits, a salary, student loan stipends and job security as major draws.

“With any major, you’re more likely to get a better job if you get your master’s, so [Teach for America] was kind of an opportunity to solidify a job,” she said.

Because of the number of applications (last year, about 48,000 were received), how-ever, Mrvan was rejected for the program.

“Across the U.S., our accep-tance rate is around 11 percent,

Pickett said. “Our entire process is very merit-based, so what school you went to doesn’t help or hurt you. Where you grew up doesn’t help or hurt you. It’s all com-pletely based on what you’ve achieved and what you’ve done about your college experience.”

For those who will be join-ing TFA after graduation, current teachers offer two pieces of advice: heart and hard work.

Underwood encourag-es applicants to “have your heart in it.”

“Seeing a kid work that hard inspires me to contin-ue, despite the headaches that can be a part of the pub-lic education system,” he said.

For Potler, a SMAD major,

her dedicated hours in and out of the classroom have her considering shying away from a future reporting job.

Despite an initial plan to return to journalism after her two-year commitment, Potler said she couldn’t ever go to a career where should couldn’t make a large difference.

“I really do miss journal-ism,” Potler said, “and I try to freelance here and there as much as a I can, but it’s so powerful to see a kid who didn’t know any of their let-ters read a book for the first time. It’s the best feeling in the world.”

SGA will be cutting every front end budgeted club’s budget by 3 percent so more money can go to the contin-gency fund.

This is according to junior Abby Ware, a political science major and SGA treasurer, and was discussed at Tuesday’s meeting.

The contingency fund was created for organizations that need money for events they want to have, but don’t have the budget for.

Last year the contingency fund was $34,000; in 2010 it was $56,000.

“We’re trying to add more money to the contingency fund because last year we didn’t have enough funds for

what all the clubs needed,” Ware said.

SGA will be discussing the budget with FEB clubs every Friday during February.

Additionally, senior Rhe-anna Martino, an English major and class of 2012 pres-ident, said that one of SGA’s most important initiatives this semester is to address students’ top three issues which were collected during student engagement week in November.

According to the 4,000 students polled, their top concerns were transportation, financial aid and technology on campus.

Martino said that vari-ous committees within SGA, including the student servic-es, financial aid and academic affairs committees, have been

working on these issues on both a local and statewide level.

“There’s a legislative com-mittee petitioning on the state level for more funding for financial aid,” Martino said.

Watral additionally dis-cussed the possibility of a visit to campus by President-Elect Jon Alger.

According to Watral, the tentative date of Alger’s visit is in April.

“We’ve been emailing back and forth with his office to make sure he’ll be introduced to the SGA and student leaders across campus,” Watral said.

Video should earn Romney respect, not ridiculeIt seems the Republican Party is

relentless in digging up whatever they can � nd to entrap a candidate.

In the case of GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney, politicians dug up a video dating back to when Romney was approached by a man in a wheelchair.

� e clip was uploaded to You-Tube in late Dec. and has hit popular news organizations like � e Huffington Post and The New York Times in the past week because of its controversial nature.

In the clip, the young man discloses how medicinal marijuana is the only medicine that doesn’t make him sick.

He patiently answered his question, compassionately tried to disagree and when it became a cantankerous situa-tion, he politely moved on.

Mitt Romney didn’t brush off the young man; he took a second to listen intently to the man’s question.

Romney doesn’t believe in legal-izing medicinal marijuana. Romney answered the man’s question. Do you think he should have lied to him?

� ough a large number of students have criticized the way Romney walked

away from the man, I commend him.While this isn’t ver� ed as a setup,

this video was clearly uploaded with the intention of causing unnecessary controversy and making Romney look insensitive.

Isn’t he allowed to have a di� erent view, even if the person with whom he’s

disagreeing is in a wheelchair?Romney has been in a similar sit-

uation before, with a gay veteran advocating for equal constitutional rights as a heterosexual veteran. � is was uploaded to the Internet once again, and Romney was placed in a compromising position.

He had taken his campaign into a small town for votes and support on Dec. . Once there, he went into a diner where an old veteran was sitting by himself. Similar to the man advo-cating for medicinal marijuana, the veteran pressed Romney on granting the same rights to gays, especially if they were veterans.

Romney has clearly outlined his stance on gay rights. � is veteran was only taking advantage of Romney and his viewpoints.

Romney could’ve gotten up, but he sat and listened for a second too long, and before he knew it, Romney was in a deep conversation about this gay vet-eran’s worries and anger.

At the end of this debacle, Romney eventually stood up amid the veter-an’s heckles and walked away to avoid answering the question.

Even President Barack Obama faced the same dilemma. Remember the insanity of Joe the Plumber? It was a setup orchestrated by FOX News, according to an Oct. article on CBS.com. Obama was gracious enough to stop and talk with Joe.

But Joe the Plumber was a figure intended to represent the average Joe in a working class society.

Politely, Joe the Plumber asked him about a tax issue which was in discord with Obama’s political stance on taxes — but he was patient and answered his question.

Before you knew it, this went viral and Joe became the shill of the GOP. It gained traction, harmed Obama’s cam-paign and became a huge deal.

Be it a handicapped young man, a gay veteran or Joe the Plumber, what’s in an individual’s best interest shouldn’t necessarily apply to a can-didate’s ideology.

What makes a candidate strong is his or her unwavering stances on issues — stances that won’t bend to certain extenuating circumstanc-es, but rather, stances that hold strong even in the most trying of circumstances.

From the barren chill of Alaska comes a piping-hot idea that formed the basis for a new downtown cof-fee shop.

Nestled inside the historic Newman Ruddle Building, the shop is owned by 34-year-old Alaska native Jeremiah Young. Young has been toiling away as the shop’s only employee since its opening on New Year’s Eve.

The shop is cozy, with a small bar and table covered iwth cream and sugar. Windows on the left allow for natural light and a view of the busy street.

Young was inspired by the drive-up coffee shops of his former home. Freezing temperatures being the norm there, many Alaskans preferred not to brave the cold outside their cars to get their cup of coffee.

Young hopes this idea will appeal to members of the Harrisonburg community as well.

With an outdoor walk-up window, a temporary park-ing area on the side of the street and the option of calling or texting in your order, Young hopes to offer what other businesses don’t.

“I have always been interested in these businesses,” Young said. “But I wanted to be sure that Court Square Coffee provided top-quality coffee drinks in addition to offering express service options.”

Young, of Bridgewater, pulls each espresso shot by hand and offers a variety of syrups. But high quality doesn’t mean expensive. Most items are less than $5.

Young is confident in his drinks.

“You can taste the quality in each cup,” he said.

The menu focuses on simplic-ity, featuring brewed coffee, tea, hot chocolate, baked goods and several espresso-based drinks.

The store’s coffee beans are sourced from Trager Brothers Coffee, a company in Lovings-ton, Va., that imports organically grown coffee beans from all over the world and micro-roasts the beans in its own facilities.

For Rachel Gill, a sophomore theatre and dance major, Court Square Coffee has swayed her from run-of-the-mill coffee shops.

“I loved the personal and welcoming atmosphere,” she said. “It was great to be able to walk into a coffee shop for the first time and be greeted like a regular.”

Court Square Coffee is the first business to receive a loan through the Harrisonburg Business Loan Program. Court Square Coffee received $4,500 to jump-start the business.

Young hopes to become a destination for those living in the downtown area.

“We want to keep Court Square Coffee small,” he said, “but hope to soon include a few limited seating areas for those that want to relax with their coffee.”

For students, Young is pursuing the ability to accept JACards.

“We want to make our customers happy,” Young said. “We hope Court Square Coffee offers something for everyone.”

“Let’s Go Eat the Factory” is the worst album that Guided by Voices has put out. But it’s also the best album the band has put out in a

decade and a half.After 1996, GBV became

less of a band and more of a pen name for the prolific songwriter Robert Pollard, as backing musicians rotated in and out of the band. Pollard dissolved the band in 2004

and spent the next seven years releasing almost a dozen records among almost as many differently named bands.

So when Pollard announced the return of the GBV name and with the

band’s most revered line-up, it couldn’t help but raise the curiosity —and expectations for “Factory.”

“Factory” sees the return of Guided By Voices the band — the one that pumped out all-time classics “Bee Thousand,” “Alien Lanes” and “Under The Bushes Under The Stars” back-to back-to-back in a three-year span. The fact that “Factory” can be mentioned in company so revered is impressive, especially some 15 years after the originial experation date.

The record — the first new GBV material in seven years — burns through 21 songs in a long-for-GBV 42 minutes.

In what can be seen as a purpose statement, lead single “The Unsinkable Fats Domino” serves as the clearest example of this holistic dynamic, with all four band members sharing songwriting credits, and it plays like the band never left.

Of all the band members to reunite with Pollard, guitarist Tobin Sprout proves most essential. On “Factory,” Tobin plays McCartney to Pollard’s Lennon on the sunny blast of guitar pop “Waves” and balances out Pollard’s more esoteric moments with co-writing credits and backing harmonies.

Clocking in at four minutes long, album closer “We Won’t Apologize For The Human Race” cycle through about every trick the band has, with catchy choruses and a monstrous guitar solo stolen with love from The Who.

It’s a schizophrenic listen at times, one that might

make listeners double check that they aren’t listening to the album on shuffle.

This happens both intentionally with the variation between the band’s trademark lo-fi aesthetic and more professional sound emblematic of its later years, and in the whiplash between the fun kind of weird (“Chocolate Boy”) and the less fun kind (the clanging spoken word of “The Things That Never Need”).

But even if not every song is a winner, most GBV songs are so short that it would take longer to reach for the skip button than to listen to the track.

So even if “Factory” doesn’t define itself as an instant classic, it’s still a rocking album recorded by four people in their 50s that manages to be both professional and loose.

It serves a practical purpose as a precursor to more of the band’s legendarily boozey live shows,.

But hopefully it re-establishings the link between the indie giants tand this generation of “let’s just put this to tape and get this out there” DIYers in a way best for both.

Forget the playoffs and all their drama for a moment. Let’s dial the clocks back to a warm New York night last summer.

The day is Tuesday, Aug. 16, 2011. New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning had just appeared on a New York sports radio program, where he was asked if he considered himself an elite quarterback akin to three-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady. His answer was a resounding yes.

“I definitely consider myself in that class,” Manning said.

His answer was clear, concise and didn’t leave much room for

imagination. Manning thought highly of himself, and why shouldn’t he? He had won the biggest spectacle in American sports against none other than the aforementioned Brady, had been anointed Super Bowl XLII MVP and always had the Giants in position to make the postseason. Why not Manning as a top-five quarterback?

It’s not that I didn’t know his credentials at the time. I just didn’t really care.

Manning an elite quarterback? Excuse my late summer scoff. If you had asked me who the elite quarterbacks were a few months ago, I would have probably said Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Ben Roethlisberger.

Not only are they all great, but they’ve got the hardware to back it up. Among those five players are no fewer than eight rings. Eight. Meaning that this short list accounts for eight of the last 10 Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks. The remaining two? Brad Johnson’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers from Super Bowl XXXVII and, yes, Manning’s memorable victory over the Patriots, the lone loss of New England’s bittersweet 18-1 season that could have been.

It’s not that Manning hadn’t achieved. It’s just that there was quite a bit of bad to go with the good. The Giants quarterback might have thrown 31 touchdowns during the 2010 season, but he threw 25 picks, too. By comparison, Brady threw 36 touchdowns and four picks. There’s a clear difference between the two men. I questioned his leadership skills, too, with all the late-season choking the Giants have been associated with lately.

And let’s be honest here — Manning draws a lot of attention because he’s Peyton Manning’s brother. He will most likely never be considered as good as his brother, the longtime Indianapolis Colt, who is already considered one of the all-time greats.

All of this criticism exploded not just out of me, but most of the talking heads from ESPN and other sports commentators. Manning isn’t generally considered to be a player who makes controversial statements, but his seemingly inflated opinion of himself dominated headlines for a few days as everyone geared up for the impending NFL season.

Back in the here and now, Man-ning just won the NFC East in a Week 17 beatdown of the Dallas Cowboys, dominated the Falcons in Wildcard Weekend and decisive-ly beat the mighty Packers in Green Bay. Oh yeah, and he’s now tied for the most postseason road wins in

dukes’ previous loss to hofstra University leaves JMU looking for retribution

By EmmiE ClEvElandThe Breeze

The women’s basketball team has a bad taste in its mouth.

It’s been there since Feb. 27, when the Dukes gave up a 23-point lead in the second half and lost to Hofstra in the regular season.

“We had complete control of the game, and in the second half, we let them get back into it,” said junior guard Tarik Hislop.

The Dukes (12-4 overall, 3-2 in the Colonial Athletic Association) are looking to avenge this loss tonight when they travel to Hofstra (13-3, 5-0).

The Pride is tied for first place in the league with Delaware. Hof-stra has won every CAA game it’s played, including a record-breaking 100-97 win over William & Mary.

What makes the Pride so effec-tive, head coach Kenny Brooks explained, is its style of play.

“Hofstra’s going to try to speed us up,” Brooks said. “I can’t say they don’t care about defense, but it doesn’t really hurt them. You score against them, and they’ll get right back out really fast.”

JMU is well aware of Hofstra’s play. The Dukes have been prepar-ing for it all week.

“They’re pretty much a run-and-go team,” said junior guard/forward Nikki Newman. “They’re not real-ly setting up to run any offenses. They’re getting the first open shot that they can. So I just think we real-ly have to stay composed.”

Defensively, the Dukes’ goal is to make their opponents take dif-ficult shots.

“We don’t want them to get easy layups,” Hislop said. “We want to make it as tough as possible. They’re a pretty fast-paced team. They put up a lot of shots, and we

want to make them take bad shots and get the rebounds.”

The Pride will execute a full-court press, Brooks said, knowing that it is a weakness for the Dukes. Hofstra is hoping JMU will attack and take quick shots.

But sometimes, the shots are too easy to ignore.

“They just entice you to take a quick shot, and sometimes the shots that opponents are taking are so wide open that you have to take them,” Brooks said. “If you get [junior guard] Jasmine Gill in the open court, she’s much more effec-tive than she is in a half court set against a zone defense. If we can spring [sophomore guard] Kirby [Burkholder] loose for some wide-open threes, you think, ‘We gotta take those.’”

Brooks said the key is to find a balance between taking open shots and not slipping into the Pride’s high-tempo pace.

The game will be completely dif-ferent than the Dukes’ games last week, when Drexel and Towson tried to slow the game down.

Against Drexel, the Dukes fell 60-43, snapping their 17-game home winning streak. They recov-ered Sunday, pulling out a 67-57 against Towson.

“Nobody likes to lose at home — especially by 17, the way we lost,” Hislop said. “But we’re past that. In the season, we’re going to lose games, and if you harp on your losses, it will affect all your other games.”

The Dukes play at 7 p.m. tonight and on Sunday at W&M at 2 p.m. They will return to the Convocation Center on Thursday to host Georgia State.

After a dominating perfor-mance last weekend, JMU divers and swimmers have one competi-tion remaining at their home pool before the postseason. For the team’s seniors, it will be their last meet at home.

The Dukes will host Rutgers Uni-versity for a dual meet Friday at Savage Natatorium. The meet will be one of the two remaining for the teams before the late Febru-ary Colonial Athletics Association Championships in Fairfax.

JMU has already faced Rutgers athletes already this season. Both teams were at the Big Al Invitation-al hosted by Princeton back in early December. JMU finished fourth in the seven-team field, and Rutgers finished second overall.

Rutgers’ strength is its individual medley corps. Three of the top four spots in the 200 Individual Medley went to Rutgers swimmers at the

Big Al. Scarlet Knight Jacquelyn Ward won both the 200 and 400 IM, while teammates, Emilie Kaufman and Trisha Averill finished close behind her.

JMU did have Rutgers’ number in the medley relays, finishing exact-ly one place ahead of the Scarlet Knights in the 400- and 200-yard medley relays, placing eighth and third, respectively.

The last meeting between the 800 freestyle relay teams was also a close finish. Rutgers hit the wall four seconds before JMU at the Big Al to claim fourth. Both teams were also in the top five in the 400 free-style relay, which JMU swam only a second slower than event winner, Princeton, and Rutgers took fifth.

Rutgers will also bring in an interesting matchup in the div-ing disciplines. Nicole Scott took second in both the three- and one-meter events while her teammate,

Carissa Santora finished fourth in both. In both of those events, top honors went to JMU divers.

JMU junior Caroline Burns, who swam the first leg in both of the aforementioned medley relays for the Dukes, said the game plan for the dual meet is much the same as any other week for the team.

“The importance of this dual meet is to recognize our seniors at our last home meet of the season,” Burns said. “As a team, we are hoping to get up and race to protect our home pool.”

Burns and her teammates can agree that the team’s big-gest strength is the continuing support in and out of the pool.

“Everyone is always stand-ing on the side of the pool, not

sitting down,” she said.Freshman Sin Hye Won

took top honors at the Big Al in the 100 yard breaststroke against Rutgers.

“Against Rutgers, we want to show how hard we have worked up to this point,” Won said. “As a team, we want to have fun. We just have to keep doing what we’re doing, and we don’t stop until we get to the top.”

Senior and co-captain Melissa Helock commented on the importance of dual meets late in the season.

“We are going to be train-ing through our dual meets,” Helock said. “We need to be focused on our races regard-less of how tired our bodies are. When we rest for our taper meet at the end of the season, that’s when our bodies will get the rest that we need.”

Keeping the team’s atten-tion on each other has been critical all season and is a tra-dition it intends to keep.

“Obviously, a goal is to be faster than we have ever been before and produce a great outcome,” Helock said. “ We don’t want to focus on what other teams are doing, though. We want to be completely engrossed in each other.”

The rematch against Rutgers starts at 2 p.m. on Friday. JMU’s last meet before CAA Championships will be a two-day invitational meet at Virginia Tech start-ing Feb. 4. George Mason will host the CAA Cham-pionships starting Feb. 22.

NFL history by any quarterback. If he bests the 49ers in San Fran-cisco this weekend, he will own that record outright as a 31-year- old. I’d say that’s pretty elite.

The more I think about it, the more I want to reconsider my indictment of Manning as better-than-average quarterback. He consistently contends for his divisional title against incredibly well-funded football teams.

In fact, you could make a very strong argument that the NFC East is the most competitive division in the NFL because of the media markets they encompass — New York, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and Dallas. Meanwhile, his brother deals with Houston, Nashville and Jacksonville — not exactly the historic hotbeds of NFL dream teams. Yet Peyton is still anointed the legend, and Eli Manning quietly finds himself in the playoffs year after year. This

is Eli’s fifth year in the playoffs in the eight seasons he’s started. By contrast, the Colts have made the playoffs seven of the last eight years, but Peyton has Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark. Eli has Victor Cruz and Jake Ballard. Eli and Peyton may be brothers, but the comparisons between the Giants and Colts should probably stop there. In the do-more-with-less competition, Eli wins. It’s not much of a contest.

The gap between the “elite” quarterbacks and Eli Manning is closing pretty rapidly.

But for Eli, it was never that big to begin with.
