Hunting seasons start students express mixed feelings

The leaves are slowly changing colors the air is getting cooler and hunters are prepping their gear for their next hunt

Fall is here and with it brings the start of several hunting seasons

There have been many negative cases of hunting re-ported recently including the widely covered killing of well-known lion Cecil in Zimbabwe by an American tourist

With all the bad publicity it can be easy for one to as-sume hunting is bad and im-moral

There are still many who show strong support for hunting and what it entails

ldquoThere is a wide number of reasons why people hunt The traditional ones would fall into tradition so typically the way a lot of people enter into the fi ld of hunting is because their parents huntedrdquo David Krementz unit leader of the USGS Arkansas Cooperative

Fish and Wildlife Research Unit wildlife biologist for the federal government and UA professor said

ldquoAnother reason why a recent reason why is some people are concerned about where their food comes fromrdquo Krementz said ldquoPeo-ple want to obtain food items that are not of questionable originrdquo

Elizabeth Wilson hunter and UA student supported Krementzrsquos statements

ldquoIt is something that my family has always done It is a way that I spend time with my grandpa and my dadrdquo Wilson said

ldquoIt is a social thing but also we eat deer meat because itrsquos healthierrdquo she said

Wilsonrsquos family hunts of-ten and are always particular about following rules and regulations she said She also mentioned that just because the rules say you can kill a certain number of animals does not mean you have to meet that number

ldquoI do not condone hunting and being wasteful with it I do not think you should kill an animal unless you are go-

ing to use meatrdquo Wilson said Regulations to prevent

over harvest of animals and population is hard to connect like many would think would be possible Krementz said

ldquoIt is not always easy to prove that there is a strong relationship with population levels going up and down and the regulation of harvestrdquo Krementz said

ldquoI work a lot on migratory birds We know more about mallards than any other bird on the face of the planetrdquo Krementz said

ldquoWe spent millions of dol-lars and untold thousands of hours trying to figu e out what the relationship is with setting harvest regulations and what the populations are and I would say at this point and time we still are not clearrdquo Krementz said

Urbanization can be a fac-tor towards the negative con-notation of hunting as well

ldquoIf you look at the average citizen of the United States they do not have a problem with hunting as long as it is pursued in fair chaserdquo Kre-mentz said

ldquoThe last 50 years that

whole opinion is changing because the average citizen lives in an urban situation nowrdquo he said

ldquoPeople in the cities have become disentangled from the natural environment so they do not really understand

whatrsquos going on thererdquo Kre-mentz said

There were 246 more li-quor law violations in 2014 than in 2013 according to the annual Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Se-curity Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Report re-leased to all students and faculty Oct 1

The Clery Report in-cludes statistics for crimes reported on campus on property near campus and at off-campus buildings owned by the UofA The report also includes institutional policies concerning campus security such as alcohol drug use and sexual assault policies crime prevention methods and crime report-ing procedures according to the UAPD website

The most common crime that occurs at the UofA is li-quor law violations accord-ing to the report

Violators broke state or local alcohol laws prohibit-ing the manufacture sale or possession of alcoholic beverages which includes minors in possession of al-cohol

Liquor violations do not

include public intoxication or driving under the influ-ence Capt Gary Crain of UAPD said

ldquoViolations are not ar-restsrdquo Crain said ldquoViola-tions are usually from resi-dent assistants referring UAPD to people in their halls who have been caught drinkingrdquo

Liquor law violations oc-curred 719 times in the 2014 school year and 689 of those violations occurred in resi-dential buildings including Greek houses and residence halls according to the re-port

ldquoI donrsquot think thatrsquos really that accuraterdquo sophomore Megan Kirk said ldquoTherersquos a lot of crime that occurs at the UofA thatrsquos unreported I think police just discov-ered more in 2014rdquo

Crain said he agreesldquoI donrsquot think more

people are violating liquor lawsrdquo Crain said ldquoI think more people are getting caughtrdquo

A federal judge ruled that Planned Parenthood will still receive funding despite alle-gations of illegal activity but many students remain divided on the issue

ldquoPlanned Parenthood in its current form is not a neces-sityrdquo said senior Cody John-son vice president of the Pre-Law Society ldquoPersonally I see

the need for the health and reproductive education that Planned Parenthood provides but venturing beyond those functions should not be the governmentrsquos prerogativerdquo

Controversy surrounding the organization began when videos surfaced of Planned Parenthood offi als debat-ing fetal tissue prices How the videos were produced and manipulated remains a mys-tery but people remain suspi-cious

Arkansas responded by trying to cut funding to the organization but three people sued and won which means they will continue to receive Medicaid benefits through Planned Parenthood

ldquoItrsquos frustrating to have government offi als in Ar-kansas actively pursue action that hurts constituentsrdquo said junior Aisling Thornton pres-ident of Students for Gender Equality a student organiza-tion affiliated with Planned

Positions are available for students who wish to become campus bus drivers a Transit and Parking odeg cial said

Students who are interest-ed in a position are encour-aged to yuml ll out the online ap-plication said Barry Schiller transit operations supervisor Along with the application students should include a reacute-sumeacute

ldquoIrsquom glad that the uni-versity is allowing students to have this kind of oppor-tunityrdquo freshman Krisenda Henderson said ldquoA lot of on-campus jobs donrsquot o er very much exibility or an inter-esting work environment and I think this job does Itrsquos better for students to like their jobsrdquo

Once the preliminary documents have been re-ceived potential drivers will go through an interview pro-cess he said Students will be interviewed by two or three

professionals from Transit and Parking

ldquo˙ e process isnrsquot compli-cated but there are a lot of steps to get through before you can get the jobrdquo Schiller said

Applicants will then par-ticipate in a drug screen-ing and background check Schiller said ˙ e results of the tests narrow down the number of candidates who will move on in the hiring process

˙ e remaining applicants will enter job training a er a clean drug test and back-ground check are received Schiller said Training in-cludes preparing for the com-mercial driverrsquos license test bus familiarity training air brake testing and pre-route bus inspections he said

Candidates will be taken on test drives at Baum Sta-dium and on roads with low tradeg c ˙ en they will drive the UA bus routes a er they have memorized them Schil-ler said

Student drivers will be judged on several driving

criteria such as railroad in-tersection and parking pro-cedures Examiners have all passed the tests they will be proctoring and they are cer-tiyuml ed by the state of Arkan-sas he said ˙ e UofA is also a state-certiyuml ed testing center for this process he said

Once training is complete passing applicants will be hired Schiller said Getting hired can take up to yuml ve weeks because of the time it takes to get the results of a candidatersquos back-ground check he said

To be considered for the po-sition students must have no criminal record Schiller said A commercial driverrsquos license is not needed when applying because the test is part of the training

During training students will be paid $9 an hour and the pay rate will increase once the driver has completed train-ing Schiller said Once they are hired students can work as many hours as they wish

ldquoWe will be very exible with the schedulerdquo Schiller said ldquoWe donrsquot want to keep them from their studies or classes so

we will work with them indi-viduallyrdquo

Transit odeg cials are ad-vertising the positions on-line and with posters around campus Driving a bus would be a great job for UA stu-dents Schiller said

ldquo˙ e job is perfect for stu-dents because itrsquos right on campusrdquo Schiller said ldquoItrsquos one of the better paying cam-pus jobs and you get to meet a lot of people you wouldnrsquot ordinarily meet Itrsquos a great opportunity to make some extra moneyrdquo

A beneyuml t of becoming a campus driver is that students will obtain a commercial driverrsquos license Schiller said ˙ e license allows individu-als to drive heavy vehicles or vehicles that tow transport trailers Having this type of license can beneyuml t some stu-dents when applying for fu-ture jobs he said

Applications will remain open until Transit odeg cials are no longer in need of drivers Schiller said ˙ e application can be found on the Career Development Center website

Residentsrsquo Interhall Con-gress members initiated a climate change program as-sociated with the nationwide Know Tomorrow campaign to educate students about climate change and RICrsquos initiatives to create a sustainable environ-ment on campus

Know Tomorrow is about spurring students to action said Kenneth Hamilton RIC director of sustainability Know Tomorrow is a national non-proyuml t organization that was cre-ated to push students on college campuses across the country to show that students of this generation care about climate change

Odeg cials launched the cam-paign at the UofA Oct 2 which was the same launch day for campaigns at other schools across the country Hamilton said

RIC odeg cials partnered with Associated Student Govern-ment International Culture Team RecycleBacks the Stu-dent Sustainability Club and the Fayetteville Citizens Cli-mate Lobby to educate students about climate change and its ef-fects on society

At each event students are encouraged to take pictures of themselves holding signs that show how they will be more green Hamilton said Students can also sign a petition that will be sent to President Barack Obama and the United Nations when the organization meets in December to discuss climate change

ldquoWe have to think of sus-

tainability like hygiene where we are just supposed to do itrdquo Hamilton said ldquoOur grandpar-ents did not care about climate change our parents didnrsquot care about it but we are the genera-tion that will have to deal with the consequences of itrdquo

Know Tomorrow is about taking responsibility for a prob-lem students cannot ignore While UA odeg cials strive to pro-duce a green campus progress is slow Hamilton said How-ever RIC and campus sustain-ability programs have begun to make ldquobig stridesrdquo he said

˙ e residence hall recycling program has placed recycling bins on every oor of every res-

idence hall ˙ is program has collected 1000 pounds of waste since last year Hamilton said As a result the UofA ranked fourth in Pepsirsquos national colle-giate recycling competition

Additionally Bike Fix-It sta-tions promote the use of bikes around campus rather than motor transportation ˙ ose stations help decrease tradeg c on campus and reduce carbon di-oxide emissions

Among other programs Hamiltonrsquos RIC committee also organizes the Recyclemania and Campus Conservation Na-tionals competitions in addi-tion to campus cleanup projects every semester

Students helped to build a viewing pavilion and an interactive exhibit for the Frank Lloyd Wright House at Crystal Bridges and it will be open to the public Nov 11 said the public relations man-ager at Crystal Bridges

Crystal Bridges partnered with the Fay Jones School of Architecture in the de-sign and construction of the welcome pavilion which is a structure that serves as an entryway to the site of the Frank Lloyd Wright House said Beth Bobbitt the public relations manager at Crystal Bridges

Students in the design and fabrication program com-pleted the assembly and built the structure on the museum grounds in 2014 Bobbitt said

˜ e pavilion will feature information on Frank Lloyd Wright several of his build-ings and Usonian architec-ture she said

Students also built a model of the house that is in the museumrsquos south lobby Crystal Bridges and the UA Libraries Special Collec-tion created a digital exhibi-tion that explores the lives and connections between Fay Jones and Frank Lloyd Wright Bobbitt said

ldquo˜ e goal for it is to create an authentic experience by integrating the house into the natural landscape so it feels like it has always been hererdquo she said

˜ e house was originally built for Gloria Bachman

and Abraham Wilson in 1954 along the Millstone River in New Jersey An architect and designer team Lawrence and Sharon Trantino bought and restored the house in 1988 Bobbitt said

Constant ooding threat-ened the structure so the owners decided to give it to an institution willing to relocate it Adeg er searching for multiple years Crystal Bridges acquired the house in 2013 she said

˜ e entire structure was then taken apart and each component was labeled packed and loaded into two trucks provided by JB Hunt for transportation to the Crys-tal Bridges Bobbitt said

ldquoWe put great e ort into upholding Frank Lloyd Wrightrsquos design principlesrdquo she said ldquoHe believed in connect-ing physically and spiritually to the natural world through the use of horizontal lines that ground the structure into the landscape and dissolve the barrier between the interior and exteriorrdquo

Facilities management workers switched to back-up power after a campus-wide power outage said the man-ager of media relations

A Southwestern Electric Power Company pole failure caused the outage Media Re-lations Manager Steve Voor-hies said

Most buildings on campus regained power around 730 pm last night UAPD Capt Gary Crain said

Crain confi med that a squirrel caused the outage

ldquoA squirrel got into the boxrdquo Crain said ldquoIt shorted out everything in that boxrdquo

Crain said this happens ev-ery couple of years

ldquoThey get into transform-ers and power boxes and when they do therersquos nothing left ut charcoalrdquo Crain said

Police and repair workers were stationed on the corner of Whiteside Drive and Dick-son Street where they think the outage originated

The power outage went down Dickson Street and up Maple Street fi efi hter Justin Clark said

Firefi hters responded to

reports of people stuck in ele-vators in Old Main and Hum-phreys Hall but did not know about the power outage until they arrived on the scene Clark said

ldquoProblem is with no pow-er I canrsquot move the thingrdquo said Chris Reed an Otis elevator company worker who came to Old Main

All elevators on campus were quickly cleared Crain said

ldquoWe were stuck in there for about 20 minutesrdquo said fresh-man Maddie Mallery who was stuck in a Humphreys el-evator

SWEPCO identifi d a problem at a substation around campus and workers investigated UA offi als said

UA offi als cancelled eve-ning classes according to a RazALERT sent out at 539 pm

Steam was seen coming out of the west side of Old Main and fi efi hters were called to the scene

No one evacuated Old Main despite the steam said junior Payton Holderman who was in class in Giffels Auditorium when the power went out

Rigoberta Menchu the 1992 Nobel Peace Prize lau-reate was scheduled to give a lecture for the Distinguished Lecture Series at 7 pm in the Arkansas Union Verizon

Ballroom but gave part of her lecture outside During the lecture power came back on in the Union so UA offi als moved Menchu back to her original lecture spot

October to bring out basic tendencies in Fayetteville

As I was standing in line for Starbucks a few days ago I heard an interesting exchange of words between two friends

It went something along the lines of ldquoLike OMG Jes-sica the pumpkin spice latte is back itrsquos literally the best day ever Like wow ˜ is is literally like more important than anything like my life is maderdquo

Listening to this conversa-tion I thought back to a meme I had seen on Reddit a few days ago ˜ e caption read ldquoBrace yourself October is comingrdquo At the time I did not fully understand the meme I thought it was referring to colder weather but it was not October is dideg erent from ev-ery other month in one very distinct way- October is the month of the basic girls

Every basic girl you know loves to interject three things in any conversation you have with her e yuml rst is something

about Starbucks and the sec-ond is something about how totally ldquosmashedrdquo she got last night at that one frat house ˜ e third is less of a speciyuml c thing and more the inappro-priate addition of the word lit-erally before something thatrsquos not really literal ˜ e month of October takes these topics and escalates them exponen-tially

Starbucks brings back their pumpkin spice latte in the month of October To anyone with an IQ higher than that of a piece of bread the news of a new avor of latte at Starbucks would not be of any impor-tance However basic girls feed odeg this news ˜ ey feel they must tell everyone of this news because it is literally the only piece of news they have heard and it has to do with Starbucks

Burnettrsquos is every basic girlsrsquo drink of choice Because Burnettrsquos knows the type of au-dience they are selling to they made one of the smartest de-cisions on the planet pump-kin spice avored Burnettrsquos I

know you may be throwing up in your mouth right now but this vodka is what fuels basic-ness through the entire month of October It also fuels a lot of vomit that ends up outside of peoplersquos mouths

Halloween is on Oct 31 Besides Kwanzaa Halloween is literally every basic girls favorite holiday Halloween is a special time of the year be-cause you can be both slutty and culturally insensitive without being judged ˜ is is big news for basic girls every-where because they love being both of those things

˜ e weather gets a little bit chillier in the month of octo-ber For me that is a bummer but for basic bitches that is equivalent to like four venti pumpkin spice lattes Cold-er weather means dressing warmer and dressing warmer means Uggs and leggings ˜ e yuml rst day the weather drops below 65 degrees a basic girls closet changes from norts and t-shirts to Uggs and leggings and oversized Patagonias

˜ e cooler weather of Oc-

tober also kicks odeg ldquocu ng seasonrdquo wherein the increased necessity of spending time indoors causes normally pro-miscuous people to feel the crushing loneliness caused by watching Net ix with no sig-niyuml cant other ˜ ey then wish they were ldquocudeg edrdquo or tied down by a serious relation-ship

October is a month full of fascinating transitions ˜ e weather becomes a little bit colder and the leaves begin to change colors As the leaves change normal collegiate women change too Some girls stay unadeg ected but oth-ers canrsquot help being sucked into the void of basic-ness As more foods and drinks are in-fused with pumpkin avored syrups more and more girls are infused with a basic state of mind Brace yourselves Ra-zorbacks October is here

Whatsgoodly app fosters campus conversation kind of

Over the past few weeks one particular new app has been able to capture the polling acumen of students all around campus Whatsgoodly an app developed by fraternity students at Stanford Univer-sity last year allows users to anonymously post polls in which other users can cast votes ˜ e purpose of the app is to produce public opinion on certain contentious topics that people wouldnrsquot post on their social media publicly ˜ e silent majority is Whatgoodlyrsquos target audience

Most of the polling done from Whatsgoodly is focused on ranking Greek life in some form Questions abound as to which houses are the best at any number of things from

where to party to where to watch the game--though sci-ence has little to say about the actual dideg erence in these two things

A er the Hogs faced odeg against Alabama last Saturday talk of the game was rampant on the app As always the Razorbacks were able to give we the faithful just enough hope that a vic-tory could be eked out and then reality came and hit us back

˜ e top game related poll read ldquoWhat should I do a er that gamerdquo No clear-cut winner could be decided as respondents to the poll felt it was equally time to ldquodrinkrdquo and ldquobe real it wasnrsquot that surprisingrdquo

Whatsgoodly also serves as an outlet for students to voice their problems with a pesky roommate or friend

49 of respondents in a poll about common room-mate annoyances noted their roommates ldquoleave their studeg all over the roomrdquo

Coming up this week midterms are set to be the bane of existence to many students on campus ˜ e lack of sleep and over ow of stress in this instance has caused one particular student to voice their concerns in the form of a Whatsgoodly poll ldquoAre you go-ing to pass your midterms this weekrdquo it reads

47 of respondents report that they have no way of pass-ing their midterms while an-other 24 of the student body represented by Whatsgoodly believes theyrsquore likely to pass but owe that success to the study drug Adderall A poll seeking information on what percent of UA students are actually prescribed the drug

remains relatively unanswered as of press time

Although it seems that the app is mainly dominated by non-critical questions regard-ing girls sports or Greek life the concept of the app itself holds real merit Instead of the same old rankings of sororities or a poll exclaiming that a de-rogatory word precede before Pike real applications could come from the app Students could gauge how hard a test was or yuml nd out which particu-lar party on campus was ldquopop-pinrsquordquo that night Whatsgoodly may not be able to be a voice for all students on campus but it could be a useful feature in driving student opinion and gauging interest for all

Being trapped in a two dimensional worldHow curating our identities online can cause us to miss whatrsquos real

Wersquore all aware that a picture is worth a thousand words but a real object is worth an inyuml nite amount of pictures Given that three-di-mensional objects consist of an inyuml nite amount of planes itrsquos technically impossible to fully represent that ob-ject with a two-dimensional image But taking a stroll through the photo albums of your friends makes it appar-ent that this near-impossible feat has been attempted

What is the purpose of tak-ing all these pictures People are armed with smartphones many of which have a quick-swipe method of immediately accessing the camera ready to shoot any novelty that may emerge in their sight I donrsquot think the purpose is to re-

member Since you canrsquot real-ly watch and aim the camera at the same time itrsquos probable that yoursquore watching what-ever it is through the medium of the viewyuml nder So much is lost in this two dimensional by-product Whatever mem-ory you create even though itrsquos permanent is smaller than life

I think itrsquos a lot easier to construct a reality from pic-tures given that they are a two-dimensional slice of an inyuml nitely dense context Mi-chelle Orange puts her yuml nger on it when she says ldquoItrsquos more about representing a certain reality than remembering it although looking through carefully curated Facebook albums one o en senses the longing of the subject to re-member herself the way she would have others dordquo

˜ e point isnrsquot necessary to tell half-truths to others

but to create truths for our-selves We are able to take a million photos of our life and then hand select a few of them a erwards By doing this we create our own nar-rative Itrsquos not like the photos are lies but they have been taken out of their context and re-strung together in the ways that we choose ˜ e awkward and boring moments between them that werenrsquot photo-graphed donrsquot have to be in-cluded

Given the centrality of so-cial networking in our lives wersquove been able to turn these uncaptured moments into hearsay If itrsquos not recorded then it didnrsquot necessarily happen ˜ is has proven to be extremely useful for us in brushing aside moments that donrsquot yuml t nicely into the real-ity wersquove constructed for our-selves But it goes both ways ˜ is process has turned into a

source of anxiety for us be-cause if something happens that we would like to incor-porate into this digital self-image it has to be captured to be of use We are the curators of our own life gallery a task that requires indeyuml nite atten-tion

˜ is is not meant to be a pessimistic indictment of our generationrsquos identity games Only in extreme cases do people feel the need to com-pletely construct themselves into their ideal silhouettes But we must always be wary of mistaking the map for the territory Even the most pro-digiously adorned proyuml le only scratches the surface of the three-dimensional human being behind it

Columbus Day˜ e holiday set to expire

Monday was Columbus Day I did not know it was Columbus Day until the end which shows you how much importance I place on Co-lumbus Day I do not care that it happened and I only care that I found out I missed it because it provided me with something to have an opinion on

Columbus may or may not have actually found America and even if he did he was only American in the sense that he came onto someone elsersquos land and immediately claimed it as his own declared it needed saving and then went about angering all the locals who were blissfully unaware they needed so much help

I do not know if Columbus arrived on the Santa Maria the El Nino or the third ship but I hope he didnrsquot bring all three ships the yuml rst time he went exploring because it would seem counterintuitive to put hundreds of human beings on boats and then sail into the blue beyond without an itinerary

Celebrating Columbus Day is like celebrating a day called ldquoInciting Incident Dayrdquo where you celebrate a thing done by a person that gave another thing the possibility of existence many hundreds of years later ˜ e America established on July 4 1776 had little to do with Colum-bus other than that he acci-dentally stumbled onto a very nice piece of land

If we want to keep cel-ebrating Columbus Day we should institute a ldquoBig Bang Dayrdquo where we celebrate the creation of the Universe as the event that would one day al-low all of us to exist

˜ erersquos an interesting shi happening where local gov-ernments and even entire states have been pushing to rebrand Columbus Day as In-digenous Peoples Day

On Monday here on cam-pus a key to the city of Fay-etteville was presented to Nobel Peace Prize laureate Rigoberta Menchu who cam-

paigns for the rights of indige-nous peoples across the world Her work in indigenous and womenrsquos rights and cultural reconciliation make Menchu a yuml tting yuml gure to hold a key to our wonderful city

˜ e move to rebrand Co-lumbus Day is one that I am in no way opposed to It seems yuml tting actually to give a single day of the 365 available to us to celebrate the entire popula-tion who lived on this conti-nent before it was discovered colonized ravaged by disease converted to Christianity and nearly wiped of budeg alo which would be the absolute pinna-cle of shame

I donrsquot know how many of you have seen a budeg alo in person but they are immense majestic creatures with a right to live as important as ours ˜ ey are nothing like cattle and should be turned into neither burgers nor chaps for bikers ˜ ey carry in their chests the spirit of the old world One look into their eyes and you can feel a free-dom lost on modernity cours-ing through your veins

Indigenous Peoples Day would be more appropriate than Inciting Incident Day in that it would give needed credence to a group of people who are almost entirely mar-ginalized in America today

America once it was actu-ally America took notice that there had been people here before this piece of land be-came the greatest piece of land on earth and so we gave to those people relatively small sections of said land stepped back and said ldquowow this is perfect reconciliatory action for forcing your peoplersquos mi-gration you may have this square of land and the ability to build casinos upon itrdquo

I support entirely the move to rebrand Columbus Day ˜ ough I know little about Columbus I can see how one might view his land-ing in what would someday be America as the veritable beginning of some sort of cultural genocide where the rights and wishes of an entire people were trampled under the foot of the white man like a herd of budeg alo before a thunderstorm

ldquoMaking the Travelerrsquos Journey Worthwhilerdquo

Meat-eating on campus is often limited to chicken strips hamburgers and the occasional pork chop

Aside from a rare plate of venison or fish Fayetteville restaurants serve mostly the same types of meat How-ever not a single one of these American staples can be found on the menu of Fayettevillersquos newest eatery Herb-n-Elk

Created by Nomads Mu-sic Lounge owners Jeremy Brown and Brittany Cusanek the restaurant specializes in atypical meats like crawfish and elk Cusanek hopes to serve bison and catfish in the future she said

ldquoMy thought was that wersquore in Arkansas so letrsquos pull from what naturally would be liv-ing here what you would go out and hunt if you had to go get it yourselfrdquo Cusanek said

The menursquos originality has several health benefits All of Herb-n-Elkrsquos dishes are at least partially organic and

wholly sustainable Cusanek said

ldquoYou think about all the other restaurants and what theyrsquore serving these three meat options and theyrsquore very highly processed factory farmedrdquo Cusanek said ldquoAnd so wersquore trying to get away from thatrdquo

The restaurantrsquos elk meat comes from a certifi d or-ganic farm in Kansas Brown said The meat is not over-processed like chicken and beef can often be because the USDA has imposed stricter regulations for organic meats like elk and bison

Herb-n-Elkrsquos grand open-ing was Oct 2 but the res-taurant was open for about a week before that ldquojust to kind of work out the kinks and see where we need to berdquo Brown said

The grand opening was successful but since then business has been a bit slow Cusanek said The restaurant is tucked into the back cor-ner of the Metro District on Spring Street so it can be hard to fi d especially because the business is new and not well-known Cusanek said

ldquoAnd we donrsquot want to blow uprdquo Brown said ldquoA lot of places will have too much PR about their grand opening and then they crash because they didnrsquot do it right hellip We just want to do it right the fi st timerdquo

ldquoDoing it rightrdquo is defi-nitely a priority for Herb-n-Elkrsquos owners All of the food is made in small batches from fresh and locally-sourced in-gredients

If the kitchen sells out of a certain ingredient or meal itrsquos out for the night because they donrsquot over-process food Brown said

ldquoWersquore having a dinner party every night and yoursquove got to be the fi st to get hererdquo Cusanek said

The inspiration for the res-taurant came from a trip that Cusanek and Brown took to Colorado over the summer While they were there they ate a delicious elk burger that made them start thinking about the possibilities for a special restaurant in Fayette-ville Cusanek said

Brown is inspired by chefs like Jamie Oliver and others ldquowho are trying to expose

food educationrdquo he said ldquoIt doesnrsquot have to be fried and it doesnrsquot have to be full of GMOs and fake ingredientsrdquo

However the restaurant is about more than just pro-moting a healthy diet Herb-n-Elkrsquos menu is proof that Brown and Cusanek are seri-ous about boosting other lo-cal businesses Several local beers are on tap representing Columbus House Brewery Apple Blossom Brewing Co and Ozark Beer Company Brown said The Bourbon Rose cocktail features tea from Alchemy Macarons Also on tap there are brews from Missouri Oklahoma and Colorado Brown said

Herb-n-Elkrsquos menu fea-tures several vegetarian meals like beet sliders Sriracha

hummus and salads as well as comfort foods like hush puppies an elk meatloaf and burger and crawfish pasta Cusanek said that she often puts crawfish where lobster would usually be and elk where a dish would normally feature beef She said she is toying with the idea of bison meatballs

Along with such an in-triguing menu comes appre-hension from customers

Brown said that 12 cus-tomers came in during Bikes Blues amp BBQ and were disap-pointed that a regular ham-burger wasnrsquot on the menu In the end they were unwilling to try the elk burger and they left ithout eating

ldquoPeople are a little bit hesi-tant because theyrsquore so used

to beefrdquo Cusanek said ldquoThey know they like it so they stick with itrdquo

Students had strong opin-ions about Herb-n-Elkrsquos menu

ldquoTherersquos no way I would put that in my mouthrdquo soph-omore Natalie Oliver said

Others were more willing to try new things

ldquoIt sounds gross but I would be willing to try itrdquo ju-nior Megan Grajeda said

Herb-n-Elkrsquos owners are counting on this open-mind-edness Their goal is to edu-cate people about sustainable health-conscious food so that obesity and other health is-sues can be eradicated

ldquoYou donrsquot know if you like something unless yoursquove tried itrdquo Cusanek said

New Restaurant Serves Elk Crawfish Entrees

Fayetteville has given rise to a trending local band that has begun to turn the heads and capture the attention of students and music lovers alike The bandrsquos unortho-dox origin began only a few months ago

Renfrowrsquos members met at a local studio under the same producer and quickly decided to pursue the shared dream of playing and producing music as a band

ldquoWe are passionate about itrdquo Hayden Renfrow lead vo-calist and guitarist said ldquoWe all had our sights set on a mu-sic career and we love doing itrdquo

The band brings an inter-esting dynamic with mem-bers all under the age of 25

ldquoWe are young but that does not mean we are not goodrdquo Hayden Renfrow said

Renfrow consists of four members Hayden Renfrow 21 Reagan Renfrow 16 Gar-rison Burgess 19 and recent UA graduate Dave Matthews 23 Hayden Renfrow attended the university before drop-ping out to engage the music industry

Burgess also attended the UofA studying music educa-tion before joining the band full time Hayden and Rea-gan the bandrsquos bass guitarist are also brothers

ldquoI would rather put time and effort into a music career because that is what I know I want to dordquo Renfrow said

All four members live to-

gether and practice in their house in Bentonville

They were able to convert their living room into a music room allowing them plenty of space to practice with the full band Hayden Renfrow said

Renfrow has also used the Fellowship Bible Church re-hearsal room to gain a better feel for how live shows will actually work

The band is occasionally accompanied on stage by the Renfrowrsquos sister Hayley Ren-frow who fills the backup vo-cals and plays the piano

Renfrow recently played its fi st small gig at a Fayette-ville coffee shop Mama Car-menrsquos on College Avenue The bar was filled with eager fans and locals who enjoyed the music and liveliness of the band

ldquoThe band had impressive talent they covered songs very well and made you want to stay and listen morerdquo freshman William Votsmeir said

The band has already ex-perienced several challeng-es since its beginning five months ago

It was important for the band to work things out and establish unity and share a common vision and goal the members said

Also having a high school student as a band member makes things interesting Hayden Renfrow said that he may be 16 but he acts like a 21 year old most of the time

Renfrow has taken on the identity and genre of a singer-songwriter and blues and is comparable to John Mayer

and Ben Rector who is an-other rising music star and alumnus of the UofA

ldquoThey donrsquot have a weak player at any instrumentrdquo sophomore Daniel Matthews said ldquoI really enjoyed their songs they perform liverdquo

Dave Matthews backup electric guitarist for Renfrow said ldquoIt has given me not only friends to play music with

but friends who know me and support and encourage merdquo

Renfrowrsquos music can be found on iTunes Spotify and Amazon

Upon release of their fi st album Renfrowrsquos fi st EP ldquoSailsrdquo already reached the top 10 on singer-songwriter genres on iTunes

Renfrow said they will re-main in northwest Arkansas

for now however they have aspirations of one day mov-ing to Nashville Tennessee or Los Angeles

The band plans to raise money and establish a fi m fan base here in Fayetteville before leaving Renfrow said they have the skill to do it and they know what it takes to make it in the music industry All they have to do is put in the work and effort

Renfrow will return to per-form a free show at Mama Carmenrsquos Thursday evening Renfrow will also play a Ben-efit Concert at the UofA for the Rwanda Release

More information about the band can be found on its website at renfrowmusiccom Anyone interested can also fol-low Renfrow on Instagram and Twitter at Renfrowmusic

Brendon Glidden wiped a bead of sweat from his upper brow and nervously took a sip of water A million thoughts went through his head as he stepped up to the counter

Donrsquot screw this up Ten minutes on the clock to brew this cup You got this

Glidden a certifi d barista and head of research and de-velopment for Onyx Coffee Lab in Fayetteville attended the Specialty Coffee Associa-tion of America Event ndash or the ldquoSCAA Eventrdquo as the competi-tors call it ndash in Seattle last year He left the rest of his team at SCAA to compete at the third annual United States Aero-Press Championship

The AeroPress a manual coffee brewer more common in Europe than in the United States brews coffee in 20-40 seconds according to the of-fic al AeroPress website As Glidden explained the brewer is not that big of a deal in the US but it has its own follow-ing

In this bracket-style com-petition Glidden had to cre-ate a simple recipe using the coffee the competition panel provide the perfect tempera-ture ratio of water and pres-sure and from there brew the best cup of coffee

Before the competition Glidden created a simple rec-ipe for a collaboration he had worked on with retail com-pany Fayettechill He crafted the recipe to brew coffee while camping and it did not re-quire fancy tools but instead translated into scoops

ldquo(At Onyx) we would never measure in scoops It is wildly inaccuraterdquo Glidden said ldquoBut that recipe is exactly what I used in the competi-tionrdquo

Upon his arrival to the United States AeroPress Championship Gliddenrsquos nerves caught up to him While the other participants indulged in the beer provided by vendors Glidden stuck to water

ldquoThere I was by myself in a room full of people mdash people Irsquod heard of and I knew had done wellrdquo he said ldquoI was ner-vous and alone hoping Irsquod do well toordquo

Itrsquos super simple to do just replicate your recipe here Donrsquot screw this up

Glidden 23 moved to Fayetteville from Fort Smith in 2012 with an associatersquos degree in computer-aided drafting and design and a goal to work for Pixar which he abandoned because it was too stressful he said

He also had three years of experience working at Sweet Bay Coffee Co in Fort Smith

ldquoInitially the job was just fun I wasnrsquot really into coffee I could have just worked at a smoothie shop and had the same level of interestrdquo he said

He started working at Onyx in Fayetteville in sum-mer 2013 and during his time

there learned he does not just brew coffee he crafts t

ldquoI didnrsquot know pour-over coffee existed I didnrsquot know good coffee until I fully dis-covered that coffee is a craftrdquo he said ldquoThat was after I ab-sorbed the industry It was in-credibly eye-openingrdquo

Because he had never com-peted before he practiced in Fayetteville with his own tools ndash one being a Refractometer a $500 device that measures the impurities in water ndash and coffee The contest supplied the brand of coffee to every competitor on the West Coast but because Glidden was com-ing from Arkansas he was not able to practice with it In-stead he had to fi d a similar type of coffee to practice with

He showed up to the event which was about two miles away from SCAA and as-sumed there would be a prac-tice round to see how it would be run There was not but the judges allowed Glidden and a few other baristas from out of town to practice And then the competition began

With their names written on the bottoms of their cups no one ndash not even the judges ndash knew which cup was which By the end of the fi st round the judges had blindly tasted each cup counted to three and pointed unanimously to a cup in front of them

ldquoI thought I was out I thought lsquoYep thatrsquos it Irsquom done Irsquom out of my leaguersquordquo and then I found out the cup was mine and I was moving on to the next roundrdquo Glidden said ldquoBy the last round it was comfortable because the three of us knew we were placing We had made itrdquo

Glidden ended up winning second place met Alan Adler inventor of the AeroPress and scored many coffee-associat-ed prizes as well as fame for Onyx Glidden and the two other winners Andrew Bet-tis in third place and Jeremy Moore in fi st came from the South Bettis and Moore came from Tennessee

ldquoUsually in that coffee culture you expect (the win-ners) to live on the coast somewhere where the coffee is more of a thingrdquo Glidden said with a playful smirk on his face ldquoWe killed all these West Coast guysrdquo

Onyx is the only shop in town with ldquolabrdquo in its title in Fayetteville and for good rea-son too There is more science to brewing the perfect cup of coffee than one might think

ldquoAt times it seems obnox-ious just to get a cup of cof-fee but it all mattersrdquo Glidden said ldquoSome of it is way too science-yrdquo he said as he went on to talk about pH levels in water

Glidden works the bar at Onyx two days a week but he is a full-time employee He focuses a good amount of his time on coming up with new concoctions for the seasonal drink menu for which he cre-ated his proudest achievement thus far the award-winning Srsquomores Gibraltar Th s drink has been featured on various coffee blogs and websites as well as magazines around Ar-kansas

Dylan Siemens head baris-ta trainer at Onyx has worked with Glidden for two years

ldquoBrendon is a really en-thusiastic and creative person about really all things coffeerdquo

Siemens said ldquoWe both are good for pushing each other to the next level of being a baristardquo

Along with his barista job Glidden is head of research and development for Onyx which includes organizing and creating the seasonal menus He also leads and teaches public classes and events such as coffee brewing and latte art at Whole Foods and the Little Craft Show in Fayetteville He also brews the Nitro Cold Brew at the Onyx warehouse where he brewed about 500 gallons of it this past summer

An Ozark Mountain stu-dent retreat camp is under construction 40 miles east of Fayetteville

Rick Bailey who graduated from the UofA with a degree in mechanical engineering in the 1970s is constructing this camp on a plot of land located atop a mountain in Madison County A er spending 30 years in the oil and engineer-ing industry Bailey said he felt led to exit the business world and begin investing in peoplersquos lives

ldquoI knew I was too old to be hired by Kanakukrdquo Bailey said ldquoso I took my savings le the oil industry and be-gan to develop a camp on a smaller scale and odeg er this camp to student and youth group organizationsrdquo

In uenced greatly by his love for the outdoors Bailey stumbled upon 120 acres of land for sale and quickly pur-chased it

ldquo˝ e camp has been in the works since January 2009rdquo Bailey said ldquoRight a er the big ice storm hitrdquo

Noticing the fallen limbs and lumber that was scat-tered across the property a er his new purchase Bailey said he began to chop down dead trees and collect the wood that had already fallen to cre-ate a clearing for his camp

A er catching a vision Bailey planned to use this wood he acquired on his land to build the camp from the ground up Bailey teamed up with several of his mules to drag the trees he cut into large piles to use later Shortly a er this commitment Bailey said he bought a sawmill and began to mill the tree trunks he had cut into usable lumber

to construct the cabins on the campgrounds ˝ en began the long process of laying concrete foundations build-ing the concrete piers and as-sembling the log cabins from the wood he cut

Since the beginning of the construction of this student camp Bailey said he has con-structed about 23 himself As word got out among the locals in the neighboring counties Bailey began to have people volunteer and help him build the camp

˝ ough still under con-struction Bailey has managed to erect three cabins several barns and sheds for storage his own house on the prop-erty and is building a large dining hall overlooking the valley

ldquoIt is not the nicest place ever but it has come a long way since I was last out there a year agordquo junior Mason Les-ter said

Bailey has many future vi-sions for the camp and has a variety of improvements and new additions he plans to incorporate in the camp he said ˝ e yuml rst of these addi-tions is boxing certain por-tions of the camp in glass in order to provide protection from the elements yet at the same time decreasing any type of barrier between hu-mans and nature

Baileyrsquos most recent ac-quisition of land he said gave him access to 11 acres of White River property to serve as a swimming hole and al-low for opportunities to teach kayaking classes

Bailey has built several ropes courses with various degrees of di culty Bailey said that he owns $10000 worth of paintball equipment for guests to use and play with at their leisure Also a profes-sional archery course is in the making Bailey said for ar-

chers to come practice as well as for beginners to learn A BB gun range is being built to accommodate for the 30 guns Bailey owns Rock climbing and repelling practice is also a future addition Bailey said

ldquoI am a proponent of edu-cationrdquo Bailey said ldquoWe have areas where geology students would thrive fossils in rocks bludeg lines on the river and much morerdquo

Future additions also in-clude a skeet shooting range a combat pistol range con-cealed handgun license train-ing a yuml sh pond guided squir-rel hunts a pavilion and a sports and recreation area

ldquo˝ is isnrsquot just a summer to summer camp but a weekend camprdquo Bailey said

Bailey is open to have any type of group or organiza-tion to his property for a fun getaway whether it be for a bachelor party a faith-based group a fraternity or soror-ity get together family bond-ing or simply a class of nature loving students and their pro-fessor It is a great place to get away and experience the won-ders of nature Bailey said

Stephen Billings a stadeg member a part of Student Mobilization or StuMo re-cently made a trip to Baileyrsquos camp for a menrsquos retreat

ldquoIt was awesomerdquo he said ldquoRick was a huge blessing and helped us out with ev-erything Our crew got to get away from all distractions and focus on areas of growth and had a great timerdquo

Bailey said he has built the camp with his own money because he wants to give oth-ers the chance to experience creation ˝ ough he does not charge a group to come out and stay and use his facilities and equipment Bailey said he would appreciate any dona-tions the visitors give

ldquoIt was a great place to escape and rechargerdquo sopho-more Daniel Shimer said

˝ e camp is not fee-based and runs solely odeg the dona-tions he receives and Baileyrsquos own money Bailey said

ldquoWe plan on going back next yearrdquo Billings said

Fair chase is the ethical and lawful pursuit of wild game that does not give the hunter an im-proper advantage over the ani-mals according to the Boone and Crockett Club founded by ˝ eodore Roosevelt and others in 1887

ldquoOur relationship with the land in the city is no dideg erent than someone who reaps all or some of his resources from the wild but he or she can become unaware of where his steak dinner came fromrdquo said Per-rin Partee co-owner of Partee Land and Timber Partee has a hunting club on the land that his lumber business is on

Other students at the UofA who hunt said that they have heard about game wardens in the area running a tight shi in Arkansas making sure that il-legal hunting does not happen

ldquoGame wards are pretty on top of poachingrdquo junior bow hunter Samuel Colton said

ldquo˝ ey will hear shots pass shooting times or out of season and they will check it out It is pretty hard to get away with do-ing anything like that here in Arkansasrdquo he said

ldquoJust as any other social group has bad and good mem-bers hunting has its share of people who are conscious and well aware of ecological con-cerns and who are notrdquo Partee said

ldquoA little bad publicity should not ruin it for everyonerdquo Colton said

Krementz mentioned that there are many groups and or-ganizations encouraging chil-dren to hunt and enjoy wildlife

ldquoShooting sports in high schools is a huge dealrdquo Kre-mentz said

ldquoPart of that notion is that well if we can get kids to be-come familiar with shooting sports they will be more likely to go into hunting and yuml shing so they will start purchasing licenses which help with the management of wildlife and yuml sheries in our staterdquo Krement-ez said

songs replayed in their cars and sung in their showers every day For locals the experience has changed People who live in Austin yuml nd outsiders a bit of a burden and the ACL scene a little dideg erent

ldquoACL use to be for up and coming artists but now itrsquos a tourist attractionrdquo Austin local Bailey Pierce said ldquoItrsquos a major boost to the economy for the two weeks it goes onrdquo

˝ e festival goes on for two weeks in the beginning of Oc-tober and lasts for three days with non-stop music ˝ e sec-ond weekend was full of up-and-coming artists as well and major labels including BORNS Vance Joy Of Monsters and Men Alt-J Hoizer ˝ e Week-end and Florence and the Ma-chine ˝ e biggest dilemma of any person attending the festi-val is which shows to choose when to go and how to make their way to the front Everyone yuml nds a spot in the dead grass for miles on end lays out a pic-nic blanket and dances to the songs with bass so loud their whole bodies shake

enior cross country run-ner Dominique Scott has done it all

She is a two-time winner of the Southeastern Conference Runner of the Year award and a two-time NCAA All-American She also has seven individual titles

But this season Scott is striv-ing toward another goal

ldquoMy biggest goal of the year is to be a team leader and to be a role modelrdquo Scott said

ldquoWe have a really young group of girls this year I just want to make sure I set a good example for them and give back to the team because when I was younger there were a lot of good leaders on the teamrdquo

Coach Lance Harter has nothing but praise for his star runner

ldquoShersquos tremendousrdquo Harter said ldquoShe talks to the under-classmen and shersquos a great leaderrdquo

Though the team has several

freshman Scott said she is looking to capitalize on the teamrsquos fi h-place fin sh at the end of last season

ldquoMy goal for the team is to be top 10 this yearrdquo Scott said ldquoIf this young team can go in be confide t take the bull by the horns and embrace the oppor-tunity we can accomplish itrdquo

It helps that the team has the No 1 runner in the country who already won her fi st meet of the season Oct 3 at the Chile Pepper Cross Country Festival

Scott ranked second coming into the season but after her fi st-place fin sh she moved into the top spot

ldquoIrsquom at the level now that I enjoy the pressurerdquo Scott said ldquoPressure either breaks people or it makes them rise to the oc-

casion Hopefully I can rise to the occasion but rankings are just numbers on a page People are just guessing on themrdquo

Scott said she wasnrsquot totally surprised by the honor She fin shed track season last year by placing second in both the 10K and the 5K

ldquoMost people canrsquot do bothrdquo

Scott said ldquoItrsquos like a double suicide You get one day of rest in betweenrdquo

If success is based on how much an athlete trains then itrsquos no surprise that Scott is a dominant runner

On average Scott runs 75 miles a week but she reduces that to 60 miles a week prior racing Those numbers are without running Sundays

While running Scott is unfazed by any dist-

Harter said he knows that Scott has the tools and determination to win at nationals a personal goal of Scott during her last year of eligibility

ldquoShe has very high goals and very high expectations so we try to help her notch it up another level so she can achieve themrdquo Harter said

After her eligibility expires Scott has her eyes on running professionally The 2020 Tokyo Olympics is a realistic goal and it is something Scott has dreamed about since she was a little girl she said

Fans in central Arkansas can watch the team play April 12 when the Razorbacks take on the University of Louisiana-Monroe at Dickey-Stephens Park in North Little Rock

Rcontinued on page 11

Q Is it time the Ra-zorbacks look else-where at the quar-terback position

Alex No matter how bad Brandon Allen may seem in the fourth quarter he still has the most experience under center The next best option is a guy who has only attempted 18 passes in his career BA is still our guy until the end of the season

Andrew Allen is the only capable quarterback on the roster right now The fact that hersquos even kept the Razorbacks competitive is crazy consider-ing how many offensive players are injured

Austin Whatrsquos the point Even if Allen wasnrsquot the best option which he is benching him would only lead to confli t within the team It would signal the end of the coaching staff rsquos hopes for the season too

Chandler Replace him with whom Allen is the best option available so there is no other reason to look elsewhere

Leonce Fans have to un-derstand that there isnrsquot anyone on the roster who can do what Allen has been doing this sea-son He is the best option right now If Bret Bielema wanted to lose his job which I know he doesnrsquot he would bench Allen Itrsquos nonsense

Pete If the Razorbacks are knocked out of bowl contention they should look elsewhere Ty Storey and Rafe Peavey are playmakers and thatrsquos something Razorback fans havenrsquot seen in a quarter-back since Matt Jones Letrsquos be honest Allen is absolutely replaceable at quarterback

Tye No but that changes if the Razorbacks lose enough games to be knocked out of bowl contention If that happens Allen should be benched

Traveler Staff Mid-Season Round Table Discussion

Q Will the Razor-backs ever make the College Foot-ball Playoff under Bielema

Alex Yes they will Arkan-sas has the talent and will have the quarterback play in the future to lead this team to the playoffs u der Bielema

Andrew The Razorbacks wonrsquot make the CFP as long as theyrsquore in the Southeastern Conference and canrsquot recruit as well as other teams A team needs more than coaching to win the SEC let alone play in the CFP

Austin No one expected coach Bielema to lead Ar-kansas to the CFP in his fi st three years Theyrsquoll make it eventually because the top SEC teams are always likely to have at least a loss or two on their record which could provide the Razorbacks with a window to nab an SEC title

Chandler As long as the Razorbacks are in the SEC no Coach Bielema is a fantastic coach but the SEC is on an-other level

Leonce I doubt it Arkansas just doesnrsquot possess the appeal of LSU Alabama and Texas AampM in the SEC West Itrsquoll be too tough to recruit top-tier talent to make the playoff I sincerely hope Irsquom wrong but I donrsquot see the Razorbacks winning 11 games and winning the SEC to make the playoff

Pete Yes I really like the vision Bielema has for the team With teams lean-ing more and more toward spreading the fi ld Bielema is still determined to build an old-school team that may be tough for opposing defenses It all depends on if he stays long enough to see his vision carried out

Tye Simple answer No

ldquoPressure either breaks people or it makes them rise to the occasion Hope-fully I can rise to the occasion but rank-

ings are just numbers on a pagerdquoDominique Scott

Q The Razor-backs are 2-4 Will they become bowl eligible this season

Alex Yes they will Winning at home will make the Razorbacks eligible for a bowl game Who knows Maybe theyrsquoll play Texas again and wersquoll have a repeat of last season

AndrewThe Razor-backs will miss a bowl game because of their early season blunders Therersquos always next year

Austin The Hogs should just squeak into bowl eligibility to give the seniors and fans one last look at the team

Chandler Yes Wins over Auburn UT-Martin Mississippi State and Missouri will get the Razorbacks to a bowl

Leonce Yes but barely The Hogs will break even and sneak into the postseason They need to make sure they donrsquot slip up at home for the rest of the season because a road win will be tough

Pete If the defense continues to play as well as it did against Alabama then the Hogs might be able to save the season from being a total disaster and make a bowl game

Tye Yes The defen-sive players will come alive just as they did late last year The surge in the defense will pro-pel the Razorbacks to a second-consecutive bowl under Bielema

Sports Editor Nikolaus Koch

Sports Designer Ashton Eley

Asst Sports Editor Matt Vigoda

Q What will Arkan-sas record be at the end of the season Who will they lose to Who will they beat

Alex Arkansas will go 6-6 and lose to Louisiana State University and Ole Miss Auburn and Mississippi State will be close games but the Razorbacks will fi d a way to win

Andrew The Hogs will fin sh 5-7 Wins over Tennes-see Auburn and Missouri will be the highlights of Arkansasrsquo season

Austin The Razorbacks will fin sh with a 5-7 record and fin sh the year with a win over Missouri after Thanks-giving Auburn is looking vulnerable and the Razor-backs should be able to strike after coming off a ye week The University of Tennessee-Martin will be a much-needed cupcake on homecoming and provide the Hogs with a win

Chandler Outside of LSU and Ole Miss the Razorbacks will be at home the rest of the season Mississippi State will be challenging but I expect the Razorbacks to win all of their home games and go 6-6

Leonce I believe the team will go 6-6 with road losses against LSU and Ole Miss I also have faith that the Hogs will improve defensively and possibly pull an upset on the road against one of the two teams

Pete The defense will have to carry the struggling offense if the Razorbacks are going to fin sh the season 6-6 Ole Miss and LSU are too tough especially on the road

Tye Arkansas will fin sh 6-6 The Hogs will have wins over Auburn UT-Martin Mississippi State and Mis-souri

ormer Razorback pitcher Dallas Keuchel

pitched his way to a vic-tory Sunday in the Houston Astrosrsquo third game against the Kansas City Royals in the American League Division Series

In a 4-2 victory over Kansas City Keuchel pitched seven innings and gave up yuml ve hits He gave up a home run to centeryuml elder Lorenzo Cain in the fourth inning but it was the only run scored on Keuchel during the game

deg e pitcher threw 124 pitches and struck out seven batters before being relieved by Tony Sipp

Prior to that performance Keuchel helped the Astros punch a ticket to the series a er an impressive perfor-mance on the mound in the teamrsquos wild-card matchup against the New York Yan-kees

Keuchelrsquos dominating play against the Yankees in the Astrosrsquo 3-0 victory was not the pitcherrsquos yuml rst great show-ing this season deg e pitcher had a mind-blowing 15-0 record in Houston during the regular season and he yuml n-ished the regular season with a 20-8 record as he willed his team into the postseason

Going into the wild-card game the Astros and the Yankees were the two teams in the MLB that were most dependent on home runs deg e teams scored nearly half their runs because of the long ball

Going up against veteran sluggers Alex Rodriguez and Carlos Beltran on the road was no small task for Keuchel who was playing in his yuml rst postseason environ-ment deg e Astros had not played in the postseason since 2005 when the organi-zation was crowned National League champion

Andrew EppersonStaff Reporter

Keuchel anchors AstrosInstead of crumbling

under the pressure at Yankee Stadium against arguably the most successful team in MLB history Keuchel pitched a performance for the ages and turned the sports world upside down

In six innings Keuchel gave up only three hits and a walk deg e ace did not commit a single error and 54 of his 87 pitches were strikes Keuchel struck out seven batters be-fore he was relieved by Sipp

Keuchel faced the Yankees twice during the regular sea-son and won both times In June the pitcher struck out 12 batters in the Astrosrsquo shutout victory over the Yankees In August Keuchel pitched for seven scoreless innings and struck out nine Yankee batters

A er his impressive regular season most experts believe the American League Cy Young race is between Keuchel and Toronto Blue Jays pitcher David Price deg e Cy Young Award is given to the best pitcher in each league

Keuchelrsquos breakout season was somewhat unexpected because the pitcher earned a 12-9 record as a starting pitcher last season While many experts predicted he would have a solid year almost no one expected Keuchel to rise to the top of the American League

When the le y won his 14th consecutive home start he set the franchise record for most consecutive home victories deg e record was previously set by Danny Darwin in 1990

Before being dra ed by the Astros in the seventh round of the 2009 dra Keuchel played at Arkansas for three seasons He ended his college career with a 19-9 record for the Hogs and he started 17 games his senior season Keuchelrsquos 2009 Razorback team made a run in the Col-lege World Series before even-tually losing to the Louisiana State University Tigers

rkansas running back Alex Collins should be considered one of

the best players in the South-eastern Conference

Collins has produced more than 650 rushing yards while gaining more than 5 yards on every carry Hersquos on pace to rush for more than 1300 yards which would mark his third consecutive season to rush for more than 1000 yards

COMMENTARY

Austin AraujoStaff Reporter

He yuml nished last season as the No 14 all-time leading rusher in school history If he continues his pace Collins will reach the third spot on that list

Itrsquos a travesty that Collins isnrsquot consistently mentioned as one of the best runners in the SEC

One of Collinsrsquo biggest rivals is Louisiana State Uni-versityrsquos Leonard Fournette Fournette started o slow against the University of South Carolina Gamecocks He yuml nished the yuml rst half with only 59 yards but he started the third quarter with a

bang Fournette took a hand-o from the shotgun and zoomed his way to the end zone untouched He needed only one upyuml eld cut to score an 87-yard touchdown

His touchdown was the type of statement the sopho-more running back who leads the NCAA in rushing yards needed to silence those who claim Fournettersquos early season success was because of his teamrsquos weak schedule

It was a statement similar to the one Collins made last year against Texas Tech when he pulled o an 84-

yard scamper to the end zone However Collins did that against a Red Raider defense that was not highly esteemed

Fournettersquos 158 yards against South Carolina pushed his rushing total to more than 1000 yards in just yuml ve games this season He became the 10th player in Football Bowl Subdivision history to reach that total in yuml ve games ac-cording to ESPN

Itrsquos easy to overlook Collinsrsquo superb play this season when a running back from a rival team is putting up historic numbers However that would be short cutting the perfor-

mance of a player who has taken over the duties as the main running back for the yuml rst time in his career

Collins has become the focus of a Razorback of-fense that is confused about its identity In 2014 the Hogs thrived on pound-ing their opponents with a ground game that punished and wore down defenses deg at rushing attack was built on the combination of Collins and Jonathan Wil-liams who rushed for more than 1100 yards last year deg is season Collins has been pushed into the solo

A

Alex Collins runs over the competition this seasonrole save for a few touches that have gone to freshman Rawleigh Williams

Without the ability to rely on two talented running backs the Razorbacks are turning to an increasingly e ective passing attack Yet Collins is still on pace to obliterate his totals from last year

Fans need to appreciate what theyrsquore seeing from Collins before he bolts for the NFL or count their lucky stars if he chooses to give it one more go in an Arkansas uniform

Lady Hogs continue to struggle

he UA soccer team dropped to 1-5-1 in Southeastern Con-

ference play and 5-8-1 overall a er su ering close defeats to Ole Miss and Vanderbilt on Friday and Sunday respec-tively

deg e Razorbacksrsquo matchup with Ole Miss ended with a gut-wrenching last-second goal in double overtime by Ole Miss defender Maddie Friedmann to give the Rebels a 2-1 victory

deg e Rebels had the NCAA leader in game-winning goals in CeCe Kizer but it was Friedmann who put Ole Miss on top against the Hogs

deg e other point for Ole Miss came when a Razorback

player accidentally scored on her own goal in the 55th minute

In the 64th minute Arkansas junior midyuml elder Rachel Riggs scored her yuml rst goal of the season to tie the game

Claire Kelley and Reece Christopherson assisted on the goal which was a chip shot for Riggs a er Ole Miss goalkeeper Marnie Merritt fell down Razorback head coach Colby Hale said Riggsrsquo perfor-mance helped the Hogs down the stretch

ldquoI thought she went in and added good minutes for usrdquo Hale said ldquoHonestly it wasnrsquot just the goal She did a few good things for usrdquo

deg e Rebels had 16 shots on the night but freshman goalkeeper Jordan Harris ac-counted for eight saves

deg e 1506 fans who attended the double-overtime thriller

broke an attendance record at Razorback Field It was the yuml h-highest attendance in Razorback Field history Some of the crowd stayed a er the game to call the Hogs with the team and receive autographs from the players

deg e team will bounce back from the loss and get better moving forward Hale said a er the game

In the teamrsquos matchup against the Vanderbilt Com-modores the Razorbacks were unable to yuml nd the net in the 1-0 defeat

Vanderbilt scored the only goal in the 11th minute when Simone Charley dropped one in from about 5 yards away from the goal However the Razorbacks held the Commo-dores scoreless for the rest of the game

Arkansas nearly evened the score in the 67th minute

when junior Alexandra Fischer appeared to score the equalizer but an o side call negated the goal

deg e game was physical from the beginning and Arkansas racked up yuml ve fouls in the yuml rst half

In the second half the Com-modores racked up nine fouls but yuml nished the game with a 13-to-8 advantage over the Razorbacks in the foul depart-ment

Harris followed her perfor-mance against Ole Miss with a save in the yuml rst half against the Commodores Goalkeeper Cameron Carter played the other half against Vandy and she also earned a save

deg e Razorbacks will take on the 8-4-3 Louisiana State University Tigers at 6 pm deg ursday at Razorback Field deg e game will be televised on the SEC Network

he UA hockey team faced the University of Central Oklahoma on

Friday and Saturday in a two-game series that ended with Arkansas falling 4-2 to the de-fending national champions

deg e loss dropped the teamrsquos record to 3-8 on the season

In the yuml rst game Arkansas struck yuml rst when defender Austin deg ielges scored unas-sisted to take an early lead Al-though the Bronchos outshot Arkansas 15-8 in the yuml rst pe-riod strong play from goalie Oliver Eklund kept Central Oklahoma from scoring

deg e second period was a whole di erent story

Arkansas falls to defending champion 4-2HOCKEY

SOCCER

Central Oklahoma scored three goals with le wing Gavin Hohl forward Sam Rice and center Landon Robin all getting in on the action Hohl and Rice each added an assist

Tempers rose quickly and players from both teams were separated multiple times throughout the night Each team had at least three di er-ent players spend time in the penalty box

Arkansas had trouble convert-ing power-play opportunities even when Central Oklahoma was down two players late in the third period During the power play Arkansas pulled Ecklund to add an additional scoring threat but a pass intercepted by Central Oklahoma forward Josh Wyatt led to an easy score on an unprotected goal

deg e second game was similar to the yuml rst with Ar-kansas striking yuml rst behind a goal from le wing Luc Gradisar It was the yuml rst of Gradisarrsquos two goals on the night deg e other came in the second period

ldquoWe came out strong in the third period but we didnrsquot capitalize on a couple of power plays that we wanted tordquo defender Chris Green said ldquoWe grinded a lot in our defensive zone but we couldnrsquot get any momentum goingrdquo

Rice right wing Andrei Novikov center Michael Rivera and forward Donald Danroth all added goals for Central Oklahoma

Once again both teams had to be separated numer-

ous times during the game At least six players on both sides served time in the penalty box

ldquodeg erersquos always a little talk-ing between teams but the refs didnrsquot call as many as they should have and didnrsquot get control of the game earlyrdquo Green said

With the loss the Hogs have dropped yuml ve of their last seven games and they go into the next series on a yuml ve-game losing streak

fter a tumultuous off eason for head coach Mike Anderson

and the Razorback basket-ball team Anderson and his coaching staff are attempting to recruit top players who will put the team back in the national spotlight with marquee talent

During the off eason Jacorey Williams Anton Beard and Dustin Thomas found themselves in legal trouble after police arrested them for allegedly using counterfeit money Williams was dismissed and Beard and Thomas were suspended from the team Beard and Thomas await trials and could be reinstated

Arkansas also lost Ted Kapita one of the top recruits from the 2015 class who was ruled academically ineligible by NCAA offi als He will not be on campus for another year Kapita and fellow recruit Jimmy Whitt were the only ranked play-ers Anderson recruited last year With the departure of four of the teamrsquos leading scorers Kapita and Whitt were expected to fill produc-tion holes

However many top re-cruits are still considering Arkansas

Malik Monk the only five-star high school recruit in Arkansas has narrowed his list of schools to six The options include Arkansas Kentucky Oregon North Carolina Florida State and Kansas Arkansas and Kentucky are considered the favorites While Kentucky North Carolina and Kansas are perennial powerhouses Florida State has one of the best 2016 recruiting classes

However Monkrsquos older

Big recruiting push for Hog basketballLeonce DeLochStaff Reporter

brother Marcus Monk played at Arkansas seven years ago as a receiver on the football team Monk also resides close to Fayetteville in Bentonville

Monk is ranked fi h in the country and he would be the second five-star recruit in the state to choose the UofA over other options ac-cording to ESPN The other recruit was former Arkansas star Bobby Portis who led the team to its fi st NCAA Tournament bid since 2008

Besides Monk Anderson has secured a commitment from two of the countryrsquos best junior college prospects in guards Daryl Macon and Jaylen Barford Macon from Holmes Community College in Mississippi averaged 23 points four rebounds and three assists a game

Barford out of Motlow State Community College in Tennessee put up 20 points and five assists a game while grabbing seven boards Their scoring abilities should benefit the team when they make their way to Fayette-ville

Arkansas is still awaiting the decision of four-star recruit DersquoRon Davis a 6-foot-8-inch power forward from Aurora Colorado

For the 2017 recruiting class Arkansas has already received a commitment from in-state four-star power forward Daniel Gafford out of El Dorado The 6-foot-10-inch big man is ranked No 45 in ESPNrsquos ranking of high school juniors

Jamal Johnson a 6-foot-4-inch shooting guard from the 2017 recruiting class could also play for Arkansas but he has yet to make a decision

If Anderson and his staff can recruit top players such as Monk Davis and John-son the Razorbacksrsquo future looks bright
