Students still waiting for campus housing By Aaron Cooper News Contributor Upon returning to school this year, some students found out that there would be a delay in their plans on moving onto campus.

Distinguished Lecturer Series opens FridayBy Jamillah HarveyNews Contributor

This year, William PatersonUniversity's first lecture of theDistinguised Lecturer Series willbe held on Oct. 2 in Shea Center.Leon Panetta begins this serieswith his lecture titled " ChallengesConfronting Washington- Nowand in the Future."

Leon Panetta is a former chiefof staff to President Bill Clintonfrom July 1994 to Jan. 20.1997, aformer ambassador in the Reaganadministration, and the Americanuniversity professor who helpedwrite the Palestinian government'snew constitution.

"I feel this lecture is very time-ly. I am looking forward for Mr.Panetta to provide insightful infor-mation on this subject," saidLinder.

"He can fill us in on what'sgoing on in Washington sincethere is a lot happening downthere. I believe this is a greatopportunity to hear from someonewho is influential. It gives us achance to here things that we don'tnormally here," she added.

"There are absolutely ticketsavailable for the lecture series. We

are doing something with SGAand SAPB for students so we cansell tickets. We still have subcrip-tions and single tickets, so we urgeanybody to buy some," saidLinder.

Many students are excited aboutthe Beatles revival. "I practicallygrew up on the Beatles, my dadalways played it. It will be cool to

see the revival," said AnnLescomb, 19, sophmore.

Mary Beth Zeman, Director ofthe Office of Public Informationsaid she hopes students will comeout to see them. "We got to a latestart with this. I hope students findout about it and become interest-ed," said Zeman.

out housing, there are betweenthirty five and forty rooms that arestill tripled. Cafarelli said he is try-ing to to get them into a doublesituation.

"It's hard to predict when thoserooms will be broken downbecause of some of the situations.We might have rooms open in theapartments, White Hall orMatelson Hall and have a fresh-man looking for a room, and wecan't put freshmen in some ofthese buildings.

"Other than that we will placestudents in housing immediatelydepending on where and if there isspace," Cafarelli said.

"For me residence life wasmoving too slow. It took me aboutfour tries to get housing. I liveabout an hour and a half away, andthis is my last year, so I couldn'treally wait. I was up here stayingillegally with some of my friends,until I went to another source forhelp," said Andy Burroughs,senior.

At the end of each semester,right after spring break, ResidenceLife lets students know aboutreserving their rooms for nextyear.

"My advice for all those on thelist now, and for those that don'twant no problems later, is don'twait get your money in," saidShawn Gray, junior.

my young son was there and wit-nessed my packing up."

For Martinelli, her position atWPU wasn't just a job; it was apassion. "I cared about theUniversity. I didn't expect to betreated like this at WilliamPaterson."

According to Reiss, it was abusiness move.

"This is not the academic side ofWilliam Paterson. It's the adminis-trative side. We work with dead-lines, had a situation and we dealtwith it. I felt there were importantthings that needed to be done soonwith the Alumni Association.

"In the best interest of the insti-tution we made the decision. Idon't think I made a wrong deci-sion. It was presented to her matterof fact, the conversation was veryshort, and it was not a decision 1made alone," Reiss said.

"Her head was moving for-ward," Reiss continued. "Whensomeone takes a job, you're excit-ed about the new job. It is difficultto work for both schools," headded.

"I wasn't out looking for a job,"Martinelli said. "Seton Hall calledme and created an attractive posi-tion, she added. Martinelli previ-ously worked for Seton Hall from

1988 through 1995."The current employer has the

option to match," Martinelli fur-thered.

"Rick made me an offer but fora position that would have takenme out of Alumni Relations.William Paterson doesn't have thesame type of growth as Seton Hall.It didn't have the staff support orhelp in the alumni relationship. Iwas prepared to leave in a weekand a half after University Day ongood terms. That's why I gave amonth's notice, when two weeks isstandard. I wanted to leave myoffice in place, knowing what needto be done. I wanted it to be as if Iweren't really leaving. Now, I don'tfeel as if I am welcome," saidMartinelli.

"The university is very appre-ciative of Lysa's work," Reiss said."She was committed to WilliamPaterson 110 percent and that wasnever an issue. I hope she staysinvolved with the University. Shewas an outstanding employee, andwill be missed," he added.

"This move," explained Reiss,"gave her time between jobs, soshe would not have to workthough. She did have another job.In my position we had to make adecision with the best interest ofthe university. I understand whyshe would have these feelings ofnot being welcome," Reiss said.

"In time I hope they'll change. Iwish her the best of luck, and haveonly good things to say about her.It is somewhat sad, because thisshould be a happy time for her," headded.

"I had a tremendous amount ofrespect for Rick and the good ideasand plans he has for theUniversity, but how I was treatedat the end makes me wonder,"MartinelHsaid.

"I hope the way I was treatedwill not become common foremployees leaving WilliamPaterson. William Paterson is acommunity of employees whocare about the institution and whatthey're doing. It's not a corpora-tion. It could be my blind faith,"she added.

In three years with Martinelli asDirector of Alumni Relations, theAlumni Association increasedscholarships and grant programs,was responsible for getting theAlumni Association' name out tothe community and student body,and reached out to distant alumni,including getting alumni athletesmore involved with the institution.

The Alumni Association alsobecame much more involved withstudent activities on campus, andshe oversaw the strengthening ofthe relationship between theAlumni Association and the uni-versity.

Who is Mr. Limpett?

Have you ever felt that yourwhole world was fallingapart? Have you ever

needed to escape anywhere, just toget away? For those of you whohave read my column from twoweeks ago, dealing with stress(thank you to the both of you), thisis a continuation.

I wouldn't say I came up with asolution to the stress problem, justone possible idea. But let me backup a minute. First let me explainmy theory on how people think inthe world. I believe there are basi-cally two kinds of people in thisworld; there are the dreamers, andthere are the doers. Then everyonce in a while you get someonewho could be considered a little bitof both.

I would normally say I am defi-nitely a dreamer, yet every once ina while (not quite as rare asHaley's comet, but not quite as

often as the new moon), I could beconsidered a doer. I dream upsomething really cool, and then Idevise some type of plan to try andaccomplish this feat. So, the twocan go hand in hand at times, butnot often. More often than not, Idream up something so complete-ly twisted and bizarre that Einsteinhimself could not come up with afeasible plan.

So, back to the stress escapething. First, let me preface this bysaying, "I'm not a whacko, I'm nota whacko, I'm not a whacko." (Imay be slightly crazy, but that'sdifferent) Allow me to set thescene for you. After a long andstressful day, I decided to visit mylocal park and sit by the lake ataround 10 p.m.

As I sat pondering about myproblems, I though of Mr. Limpett.Who is Mr. Limpett? Jeez, youpeople are really young! Mr.Limpett was the name of a charac-ter played by Don Knotts in amovie from, well, let's just say along time ago.

Anyway, Mr. Limpett needed toget away from his life, so hewished he could be a fish. Sureenough, his wish came true. (Goto the classics section inBlockbuster 'Video and look for it,it's a good movie).

A new feminist perspectiveByMezzy(MaryZappo)Op-ed Contributor

"What is a feminist?" As youcan probably imagine, as the pres-ident of the Feminist Collective oncampus, I get asked this question alot.

Well, to begin with, a feministcan be a great many things, and afeminist isn't a what, but rather awhom; and to tell the truth it couldbe anyone.

As part of my own feminist per-spective, a feminist is as I onceheard someone call it, "a personliving in reality but also a dream-er."

There are many definitions offeminism, as the feminist majorityputs it:

"The definition of feminism issimply yet broad: the policy, prac-tice, or advocacy of political, eco-nomic, and social equality forwomen. A feminist is any person -

- woman or man, girl or boy, orother — who advocates feminism."I see feminism as a worldwidemovement dedicated to equalitywhich seeks to get rid of all formsof discrimination, including sex,race, gender, sexual orientation,age, religion, national origin, dis-ability, and marital status.

"So what is it really like to callyourself a feminist?" As for whatit is like to identify as a feministon this campus, I must be honestand say that sometimes I feel like Iam in a zoo.

On campus I am surrounded byloads of people who live in thisbliss of ignorance. I battle onthrough it trying not to be appalledby the sexist, heterosexist, andhomophobic language, images,professors, staff, and students whosurround me. I try to educate peo-ple if I can, but I have to pick andchoose which fights are worth it. Ihave to decide whether it is better

to stand up to the lions of injusticeor walk away quietly and safe.

On this campus, one easilybecomes a target of violence; itcan be as complex as a facultymember defending a student frominstitutionalized racism, or as sim-ple as falling in love with someoneof the same sex. I have been and Istill am a target of this kind ofmale supremacy, heterosexualrage that exists on this campus. Iface it everyday.

The Feminist Collective, for me,has always been a place to go totry to change this campus from theunsafe, sexist, heterosexist, homo-phobic, racist, etc.... place that itis. I am hopeful.

I suppose I will end this piecewith a quote from the anthropolo-gist Margaret Mead: "Never doubtthat a small group of thoughtful,committed citizens can change theworld; indeed, it is the only thingthat ever has."

Are they just a fad, or are they here to stay?

Webster's Dictionary defines a fad as: "Afavorite theory; crotchet; a hobby." Ourstandard definition of a fad is something

which comes into our society, usually causes anuproar, and then leaves within a certain amount oftime.

Generally, a fad is something which is popular fora little while but will not stick for too long. So whydo people give into these short-timed obsessions?

For instance, let's examine the comic below.Beanie babies have become the biggest fad today, and

they are costing Americans hundreds, possibly thou-sands of dollars.

Why have people subjected themselves to thiswhen every other fad in history is a fad because itcame... and went!

Beanie babies are defintily cute and cuddly, andyes, buying one is worth the $5.

But when people who worry about saving moneyand paying off mortgages spend $200 at a time, some-thing has to be going wrong with society. I think it'stime we all re-evalute our standpoint about priorities.

Let's Talk LifeBy La Shonda LipscombOp-ed Contributor

OK people, I would first like tosay thank you for the positivefeedback from those of you,whoknow me and if I bugged, sorry.

Now this weeks topic was goingto be about honesty, but I thought,no, not quite yet. Let's take this inorder. So this weeks topicis...drum roll please...self esteem!• Yes, that's right, the stuff weswear we all have an over abun-

dance of but yet we can't justaccept a compliment, can't standto look at ourselves in the mirror,and we engage in activities that weknow will kill us. I know, I knowyou're probably saying that does-n't mean I don't love myself. Butthink abut it for one brief moment.If you really loved yourself asmuch as you say you do wouldyou do the things you do to your-self?

First, let's all agree on a defini-tion. Self esteem., the way onefeels about his/her self. True? Yes.OK. Now that we agree let's moveon.

If you feel good about yourself,you are said to have good selfesteem and if you think you'reworth nothing then it is said thatyou have bad self esteem. And thetruth is I don't think a lot us makeit to the "good self esteem level";we kind of dwell in the middle.Some of us do however rangecloser to the upper and lower endsof the spectrum.

Now as far as compliments, ifsomeone says to you, "you looknice today", do you return with a

Jl/St Bitter ByRobynJ. Caputo

from BITTER page 4

Anyway, I didn't really want to be a fish, but what about a mermaid?Just think of it, my hair would look great under water; I would have lotsof little fishy friends, and I could wear way cool sea shells, strategicallyplaced of course. And, I would not have to deal with all this freakin'stress!!

Of course, then I would have to worry about sharks eating me, and thewhole human thing might be a problem; and jeez, what the heck wouldI eat? I can't eat fish; that would make me a cannibal!

OK, new idea. What if I were abducted by aliens? Maybe they wouldbuild me a funky sci-fi looking castle, and they would make me theirgoddess. There is one condition to this of course, there will be absolute-ly none of that anal probe stuff, otherwise I am hopping the next meteorback to Earth pronto!

Other than that, it could be cool. I could hang out in cool space-look-ing clothes and eat Reeses Pieces with them all day. (Don't even tell meyou don't remember that ad!?) So, in the immortal words of BOC, "I liftmy eyes and say c'mon take me away." And you can see me, complete-ly stress free, in the next millennium! (Either that or I will be swimmingsomewhere with Mr. Limpett!)

Let's Talk Life By La Shonda Lipscomb

from LIFE page 4

sincere "thank you" or is theresponse some type of avoid-ance.(This usually refers towomen, but some men are alsosusceptible). And when you lookin the mirror do you see every-thing that's wrong instead ofeverything that's right?

For example your weight, yoursize, your pimples, yourscars...where should I stop? I cango on forever. When you're walk-ing, is your focus more the groundthan straight ahead? When thingsgo wrong, do you automaticallyassume it had to be something youdid? In your mind is everythingyour fault? Hell, are you yourworst critic?

Well ladies and gents if youanswered one or more of these sit-uations positively, you may be amid-range dweller, which is sadbecause if we don't even valueourselves to know we're ok, whowill? I'm saying, we are allunique, special, and beautiful.Plus we are all part of somethingbigger and better than life itself.And that alone should be enoughfor us to love ourselves forever.

So your mission, if you sochoose to accept, is to start aromance. A romance with your-self.

First exercise, sit alone withyourself and the mirror. Look atyourself, really look at yourself,and give yourself a compliment.Hey give yourself a million. Butjust sit there and accept them.

Then after all that compliment-ing look yourself in the eyes andsay " I LOVE YOU". No matterwhat, if you're fat, skinny, black,white, mole on your face, ugly,pretty, bad hair, or whatever yourpersonal thing may be.

Second exercise, go out byyourself. Don't be afraid to bealone with you and do what makesyou happy; dinner, movie, longwalks. If you do just these twoexercises alone, in a while, you'llfall in love with the most fabulousperson in the world....YOU!

Because the truth is whentomorrow comes and we have noone else to rely on, not our parents,friends, enemies, or anybody else,the only thing that will matter is ifwe love ourselves enough to keepgoing and make something out oflife.

Anthrax: Nothing's ChangedBy Ed ErlenmeyerInsider Editor

After waiting outside of TheBirch Hill Night Club in OldBridge for almost two hourswatching various crew membersget drunk, I finally got a chance totalk to one of heavy metal's best,Scott Ian of Anthrax. Ian and therest of his bandmates are currentlyon tour in support of their latestalbum, Volume 8...The Threat isReal! It's been well over 15 yearssince Anthrax came onto the sceneand have since been an inspirationto legions of bands that follow intheir footsteps. This interviewtook place on Friday, September18.

What kind of tour plans do youhave right now?This is actually the last night ofthis leg, the first leg we started inNew York about seven weeks ago.We finish tonight and leave forJapan on Tuesday, we'll be therefor a week. Then we go to Europeftur a month. Then I think, we'regoing to come back and do thestates again in November,December, take a break forChristmas, and then January Ithink we're going to do Australiaand South America, February and

March (tour) Europe again. I'mnot sure about April and May butnext summer we're hoping to goout on a festival, maybe Ozz-festor something with Pantera again.We're going to try to stay on touruntil a year from now.What are some of the high pointsyou've had being in Anthrax allthese years?Touring with Public Enemy, play-ing Castle Donnington (England),playing Madison Square Garden.For me it's mostly just being in theband, having a career rather thanbeing a band for five years andthen disappearing or the fact thatwe're still making records andtouring all these years later. Ithink we're a better band now thanwe ever were so for me, that's themost important thing because cre-atively, I feel better about thingsthan I ever did before so that's myhigh point, I'm still doing this andI'm happy with what I'm doing.What would you have done ifAnthrax had failed five or tenyears ago?

I don't know. I'm sure I wouldhave found something to do, I'mnot a lazy person. I have to occu-py my time somehow, someway. Idon't think I would have stayed inthe record business though.Musically yeah, but I wouldn't go

I wish I could beignorant and be just a guitar playerbut you can't do that. It sucks.Tell me about when you gotarrested in Florida at the NewYork Yankees' training camp.It was just a prank. I got drunk, Ibroke in and I tried to steal thismat that covered the on deck circleand I got caught.Are you happy with The Yankeesthis year?Yeah, although not the last 3-4weeks but then again, they havenothing to really play for right nowso I kind of understand.

SnuffTweet Tweet My Lovely

(Fat Wreck Chords/Deceptive)

Here it is. Tweet Tweet MyLovely is the long awaited fulllength follow-up to Snuff's 1995LP Demmamussabebonk. Plainand simple, this album is absolute-ly brilliant. It's not quite as real-ized as Demmamussabebonk,Tweet has a couple of non-mixtape worthy songs, but this isarguably the album of the yearthus far (Though Rocket Fromthe Crypt's latest is giving Tweeta run for it's money.)

Snuff's brand of punk rock isspearheaded by singer/drummer

Duncan. Guitarist Loz handles theband's catchy axe work. Lee rocksout on bass guitar. Dave handlesduties on the trombone and a dif-ferent guy named Lee plays thehammond organ. But don't youworry, even though there's a hornand a keyboard you won't find anyska here, I promise!

Snuff's patented brand of catchypunk/mod music starts off with"No Reason." It's a dark soundingsong and it's a bit weird that it waspicked to start off the album. Amore upbeat track like "Ticket,"the second song, would have setthe mood better.

Regardless, from there we moveon to the tongue in cheek punkrock song "Timebomb." It's loud,screamy, and as only Snuff can

pull it off, funny. Snuff then goesfor more melodic numbers like"Nick Motown," "Iyehf TaisuLeikh" (which used to be called"Slow Thrasher") and "All YouNeed." These are all just classicexamples of the caliber of materialSnuff is capable of writing.

The album's shining momentscome in the form of the songs"Bob" and "Arsehole." Bob is astraight up mod rocker withTrombone accentuating the cho-rus. It's one of the most effectiveuse of Snuff's Trombone playerand Organ Player on the album."Arsehole" is just hilarious withit's anthem like sing along "I'mand arsehole/Pm a fuckin'

wanker/I'm a tosspot/a toe rag/fartin a jar"

Closing off the album is "Takeme Home." A slow epic tale abouta bloke who's quite pissed.

God bless Snuff for being per-haps one of the greatest punk rockbands in history. Sure they're myfavorite band, but they sure didn'tdisappoint me with this latestoffering. (TB)

she takes a more mellow approachto songwriting and it pays off well.

Whitechocolatespaceegg is apop album that has all the makingsof a masterpiece. There aren'tchants of 'girl power' but it isobvious what kind of lady Phair is.On a song titled "Polyester Bride"(one of the album's best) she dis-cusses whether or not she shouldspend her time dating famous menwith a bartender friend of hers."And then he said 'Do you want tobe a polyester bride? Do you wantto hang your head and die? Doyou want to find alligator cowboyboots they just put on sale?'"

Listening to the song can con-jure up images of a lonely, con-fused girl wasting away the daywith a Sam Malone from "Cheers"type of character. It's not bitchy or'to hell with the world' sounding,but a conversation between twofriends. This is the feel of therecord as a whole. It opens the lis-tener's ear for a bit of life from adown to Earth girl who doesn'tcare about changing the world oruniting women against the scum ofmen. (EE)

Scene this one! Urban LegendWe're back! First thincr's first V»P ..rh9n u i t. ./*. ^ . . . . ^ ^We're back! First thing's first, wewould like to thank Sony/LoewsTheatre in Wayne for sponsoringthis week's target, Urban Legend.

Produced by: Pheonix PicturesWritten by: Silvio HortaDirected by: Jamie BlanksStarring: Jared Leto, Alicia Witt,Rebecca Gayheart, and MichealRosenbaum.Also starring: Loretta Devine,Joshua Jackson, and RobertEnglund.

A college student with a secret pastdiscovers that several on-campusdeaths are patterned after unbanlegends. She must try to solve themystery of these brutal killings,despite the lack of support fromthe administration or the police.Several twists along the way makeher job all the harder. Will she dis-cover the truth before becoming an

urban legend herself? The onlyway to find out is to see for your-self!

M- First off, I'll say this was anentertaining movie. It had all themakings of a thriller. The inno-cent-type babe, the smart ass, sexcrazed kids, and a killer who walksreally slow. It also has hot newactors like Dawson's Creek starJoshua Jackson, and the Noxemafresh face girl, Rebecca Gayheart.I predict this film will be a hugecommercial success.

C-1 have to agree with you on afew things, this film will probablybecome a comercial success and itwas entertaining. The fact stillremains though, I have hadenough of these 'teeny-bopper'flicks that use the same premisewith different stars. Okay, I getthe point, lets get five or six heart

throbs in a film so we can catapulttheir career into the next century.Oh, lets also add one star that isreasonably well know and killthem in the first 5-10 minutes.That is a quality film for ya!

M- I'll agree. I mean, this moviecould have been called "I StillKnow How You Scream!"However, even though the filmfollowed the same kind of plot asother pop horror flicks, I was stillleft in suspence until the killer wasrevealed. There were some cre-ative twists that saved this moviefrom being an all out copy-cat.

C- What saved this film was thepremise. I was waiting to see whaturban legend would come tofruition next. The acting didn'treally help the movie, nor did ithurt it. The actors were adequate.I don't see any Oscar nominationscoming out of this film. I waspleasantly surprised with the endof this film. It was probably thebest ending of the collective bunchof 'Gen X' thrillers.

M- On the contrary! RebeccaGayheart's performance was morethan just adequate. In fact, sheshocked the hell out of me. I alsoagree that the ending was verygood. Also, who doesn't love thatadorable Pasey dude fromDawson's Creek. I enjoyed watch-ing him sufer internal implodmentfrom the deadly combination ofPop Rocks and soda.

C- Pasey was in the movie for likea minute. That puts him in thecliched category: "Token teen starto bring pre-pubecent teenagers tothe movie". That is what madethis movie a little too familar.

M- In closing, I'll say I was not toodisapointed with this movie. Itwas everything I expected and abit more. This is a great movie tosee with a date or a group o'friends. Seeing some of the urbanledgends I heard growing up as akid was enjoyable. Dog loversmay be a little disturbed but otherthan that I think most people willenjoy this film. 1 was dissapoint-ed, however, Robert Englund wasnot in more of the film. He reallyis a quality actor and he can playmore than Freddy Krueger.

C- Overall, this movie coveredmost if not all of the urban legendsthat have been floating in the air ofhigh school and college campusesin the northeast. I was a littlefreaked out by some of the scenesand I jumped at least twice (I havea two jump minimum in order forme to recommend a movie). Thisfilm was saved by the intriguingpremise and the creative writing.On a scale of 5 axes:Chris rates this film 3 axes.

that they've had this great year, butthey have to win The World Series.Back to music, do you thinkheavy metal is popular again?I don't think it'll ever be what itwas. I don't think it ever can bebecause there's just too manyother distractions around. It's tenyears later and you've got tenmore years of technology that dis-tract people from music, whetherit's the internet, video games, tv,movies, whatever it is. Kids thesedays, when they're ten or elevenand just getting into music, whatdo they have to base it on? They

either see MTV or they hear theradio and that's what's big. It'seasier that way, you don't have tothink. If you're twelve years oldand you see Puff Daddy nineteentimes a day, well that's whatyou're going to go out and buy.Whatever they're championing onMTV or the radio, that's what'sgoing to be big. You were able touse your own mind more ten tearsago as far as what you were goingto get into because the mediaonslaught wasn't as much. I don'tthink (heavy metal) will ever bewhat is was. For me it has neverreally changed because we still dothings the way we always have.

The whole industry, as far as metaland hard rock, yeah, it's not as bigas it was and I don't know if it evercan be again. Back in the eightiesyou had so many bands going outand playing arenas. You had your(Iron)Maiden, (Judas)Priest,AC/DC, Dio and all these differ-ent big metal bands that could goout and sell out arenas every-where, and now there's none.There's Metallica that headlinesarena tours. It's just different now.Do you like coming back andplaying clubs?Coming back? We've been play-ing this place for five years now.Nothing's changed for us.

Men's Soccer takes two steps backBy Ed ClarkeStaff Writer

The William PatersonUniversity Men's Soccerteam suffered a minor set-

back in their plans to conquer theNew Jersey Athletic Conference(NJAC) last week. They startedoff with a heartbreaking 2-1 loss torival Montclair State University onWednesday, Sept. 23, followed bya disappointing 4-2 loss to a talent-ed Salem State University squadon Saturday, Sept. 26.

The Pioneers went into the gameagainst Montclair hoping theywould not only come away with awin, but making a statement to therest of the NJAC that they are ateam to be reckoned with. Eventhough they lost, they still man-aged to accomplish the secondgoal by hanging tough against theRed Hawks, who may be theirtoughest opponent of the season.

"It was a great game on both

ends," said senior midfielder TroyMedolla. "We played very well,we were just unlucky."

Indeed, the Pioneers were veryunlucky as they squandered abouta dozen scoring chances in front ofthe Red Hawks goal. They wereoutplaying Montclair for most ofthe game, but they just couldn'tfinish on the majority of their scor-ing chances.

One player who did find the netwas sophomore forward TimCrilley, who continues to tear upopposing defenses. AfterMontclair took an early lead,Crilley scored with 29:55 left inthe first half to tie the game at 1-1.He now leads the Pioneers with sixgoals, one ahead of sophomoreforward Kurt Schweitzer.

Against Salem State, who mightbe the most underrated team inDivision III soccer, the Pioneerscontinued to play well despite giv-ing up four goals. They opened upwith a 1-0 lead when junior backAnthony Pulizzano headed in a

corner kick, and kept the gameclose until Salem scored theirfourth and final goal deep into thesecond half.

Sophomore forward RubenPleasant added the second goal forthe Pioneers, but it wasn't enoughto counter the dominating offensethat Salem State displayed.

"Salem State is a great team,these were probably the toughestteams we will play all year," addedMedolla. "We played very well inboth games, it's just unfortunatewe didn't come away with a win."

The two losses snapped a fivegame winning streak, but thePioneers are confident they willcontinue the success they enjoyedearlier in the season. These twogames appear to have providedmotivation for this optimistic teamas the Pioneers remain poised tohave a great year.

"These were the toughest teamswe will play all year, we lost, but itdoesn't change anything," saidfreshman goalie Tom Kinney, "...

we just have to work harder toreach the goals we set for our-selves."

"Without a doubt, (losing thesegames) will motivate us ... every-body knows what we can accom-

plish. We have so much to lookforward to," added Medolla.

The Pioneers look to rebound onWednesday, Sept. 30, when theyvisit Scranton University.

Coach LaMonica noted theexcellent performance of theirnumber one female runner ConineDi Staso, a sophomore transferstudent from St. Peters, as well as

the solid running displayed byfreshman Angela Perkins.

"She's a very good athlete andwe are pleased to have her here,"LaMonica said of Di Staso's run-ning thus far.

For the boys, freshman

"He is an excellent, excellentrunner and we are very fortunate tohave him," Coach LaMonica saidof Firestone. "He's been in the topten (overall) in all the races we'verun so far."

Pioneers stumblein loss to WesternConnecticut Univ.Even record at 2-2 with 34-17 lossBylraThorSports Columnist

• Colonial receiver Calvin Keycaught three touchdowns and hadnine receptions for 148 yards asWestern Connecticut slipped byWilliam Paterson 34-17 at a wetWightman Field Friday night. Thefinal score may be misleadingthough, as the game was muchcloser than the final would indi-cate.

William Paterson trailed 10-0 athalftime, in a first half marked bythree missed field goals, two ofwhich were by the Colonials.

- The Pioneers stormed back inthe third quarter and pulled within10-9 of WCU after quarterbackJamie Golden raced 54-yards for atouchdown with 3:18 remaining inthe quarter. However, Art Czechfailed to tie the game when hemissed the point after.

Every time William Patersonhad an answer, the Colonials hadan even greater response. TimUhl, who came on in relief ofinjured Colonial QB Matt LeFevernailed a 32-yard pass to Key just23 seconds later to take a 17-9lead.

Colonial wideout Ed Wilcher setthe score up by returning the pre-vious kickoff 64-yards intoPioneer territory.

Courageously, the Pioneersrefused to quit. Freshman tailbackVernon Wilson high-tailed it 52-yards for an early fourth quarterscore. After Donnie Seymour exe-cuted a 2-point conversion attemptfrom Golden, it was knotted at 17.

However, Calvin Key was toomuch for the Pioneers on this day.Key caught his fourth touchdownof the year, and third of the dayjust over a minute later from 35-yards out.

Western Connecticut would addten more points late in the game toinsure the Colonials' second con-secutive win. William Patersonhas not defeated the FreedomFootball Conference school since1993. The Colonials now have a 6-4 advantage in the series datingback to 1976.

With the loss, the Pioneers dropto .500 on the season, with arecord of 2-2, after a 2-0 start tothe year. Winless Kean is the nextopponent for the Pioneers, whomWPUNJ hosts Saturday at 2pmduring Homecoming Weekend.

Field hockey team splits a pairBy Ed ClarkeStaff Writer

The William PatersonUniversity Field Hockeyteam (5-4) split two games

this week, defeating KeanUniversity 3-0, followed by a 2-0loss to rival Montclair StateUniversity.

The very young Kean Squad wascompletely outmatched as thePioneers wasted no time, scoringtwo goals in the opening half.

Sophomore back AdrienneLuBrant scored the first goal with21:40 left in the first half. Thenwith 14:50 left, junior forwardTara Pankiewith knocked in thesecond goal of the game. Theywere the first goals of the seasonfor both players.

The Pioneers closed out thegame by scoring their third and

final goal of the game in the sec-ond half when Freshman forwardLesley Ann Dube scored for thethird time this season.

The game Saturday was a differ-ent story though, as the Pioneerslost a tough game to Montclair St.

They had beaten them Sept. 13,by the score of 1-0 in overtime, butthis time it was the Pioneers whowere shut out, 2-0. They had notbeen shut out since their first gameof the season, a 0-1 loss toMuhlenberg.

After winning four out of thefirst five games, the Pioneers havenow lost three of the last four.

Although they lost this impor-tant matchup with Montclair, theteam remains optimistic, and looksforward to playing these teamsagain.

"We're starting our seasonover," explained sophomore goalie'Diane Naugle, "... we're going to

take the experience we havegained and use it to our advantagein the games to come."

"We have to come out and playour game from the start," addedsophomore forward Kate Alleger,"... we need to take this loss andlearn from it, we can't dwell on it.We have to rise to the occasion."

One major factor involved in theloss was the Pioneers lack of expe-rience on the artificial turf inMontclair.

"We have Montclair on our fieldnext, so we're gonna take ourgrass field experience and use itagainst them, just like they usedtheir turf experience against us,"added Alleger. They playMontclair again at home on Oct.13.

The Pioneers hope to bounceback against The College of NewJersey on Tuesday, Oct. 3.

Cross-Country teams make great stridesBy Michael A. TestaSports Contributor

It takes hard work, courage, anddetermination to be a cross-country runner. Twenty-six

students are currently learningthose qualities while running forthe William Paterson Universitycross country team. Under theleadership of coach RalphLaMonica, the team has displayedcharacter while improving theirresults this season.

"The seniors are handling mostof the captains1 duties," says

Coach LaMonica. For the men,Tim Collins and Matt Tully arehandling the captainship. Both arefour-year runners who have shownexcellent consistency in theirtimes while providing leadershipto a young team. DeirdreMcGowan and Julie Cartine, bothseniors, have handled the captain'sduties for the women.

"Deirdre and Julie have beenkeeping it together on the womens'end, " explains Coach LaMonica."It was tough getting the womens'team started and they were alwaysthere. They are very dependableto keep things going for the wom-

ens team. I really appreciateeverything they've done."

Coach LaMonica feels the teamalso had an excellent freshmanturnout with many talented run-ners. He stressed the fact that theteam is young; there are five fresh-men on the womens' side and fouron the mens.

"We had a lot of new runners,"said the coach. "Since we lost ournumber one runner from last year(Morgan Smalls, who is studyingin Australia this semester), weneeded some people to pick up the

see Cross-Country page 12

and the team recognize that theywill need to step it up to play eachand every game, even against theaverage teams.

"We need to be ready for what-ever they throw at us," commentedWoods.

"Now that we're number one inthe region, teams are going tocome here fired up to playus...they (Scranton) were ready togo," he added.

"Everybody is gunning for us,"Fluhr added. "We have to workharder in practice."

The practice habits have helpedthe Lady Pioneers tighten up theirdefense, allowing only 8 shots in120 minutes against Scranton, andone goal in the three games thisweek. Goalkeeper Fluhr has alsostepped it up.
