Pi Sigma Epsilon has found a way to utilize unused student flex meals from the dining cen-ter to benefit those who are in need.

Pi Sigma Epsilon is a nation-al sales and marketing co-ed fraternity.

“We thought, how about we bring in people to the din-ing centers and show them the UNI experience and what stu-dents are like,” said Courtney

Clark, junior supply chain and economics major and project manager for the flex meals proj-ect. Clark is a member of PSE.

The idea, brought by David Spengler, sophomore finance major and PSE member, last semester, was to connect members in the Cedar Falls/Waterloo area to students who had extra dining center meals. That way, meals already paid for by students are not lost due to lack of use.

The third leading cause of death for college students is sui-cide. Many people struggling with depression don’t seek help. The foundation, To Write Love

On Her Arms created a way to support and possibly inspire for those struggling with depression.

In Lang Auditorium Wednesday night, Jamie Tworkowski, founder of TWLOHA visited University of Northern Iowa’s campus to speak

about the journey TWLOHA has taken.

“I think we are afraid of being misunderstood, we’re afraid of being judged, we’re afraid of being labeled,” Tworkowski said.

During a telephonic meet-ing Friday, the Board of Regents voted 9-0 to initi-ate a restructuring of Iowa’s three public universities that could result in a loss of over 250 administrative and infor-mation technology jobs but save millions of dollars.

The eight proposals the BOR passed come from rec-

ommendations by a consult-ing firm, Deloitte, which was awarded a $3.3 million con-tract to conduct their effi-ciency study of the schools in 25 years.

The departments with potential job cuts include human resources, informa-tion technology and finance. They are expected to occur through normal attrition and retirements. Deloitte esti-

mates 125 finance, 61 IT and between 33 and 66 human resources positions could be lost.

Savings from job cuts could help fund a proposed third-consecutive year freeze in tuition.

“I think future generations of Iowa students and their parents will greatly appreci-ate this initiative,” said Bruce Rastetter, president of the

board. Rastetter also said early

retirement programs could be a possibility.

UNI President Bill Ruud, along with UI President Sally Mason and ISU President Steven Leath promised to create a system for savings.

The universities will be allowed to submit propos-als to carry out any changes themselves if it would be

more efficient, said a Des Moines Register article.

The article also said the regents plan to hire a consul-tant to advance another plan in which the universities will negotiate new, more favorable master contracts for buying goods and services as well as a contractor to review issues such as faculty staffing and class size that affect degree-completion time.

“We want to show how great the community is and also provide them with a meal for the night,” Spangler said.

Pi Sigma Epsilon has asked students to sign up to donate their meals through an online survey including their name, major and when they are available to meet with the families that come in.

Participating families, registered with the Northeast Iowa Food Bank, indicate when they are free and how many family members plan on attending.

One week after initially opening the survey, Pi Sigma Epsilon received 383 meals (approximately $3887) from 50 students to help pay for the 160 family members who have expressed an interest in attending.

“We were concerned that students wouldn’t want to sit with them and they wouldn’t want to donate meals, we just sent it out there and got 400 meals in a week,” Clark said. “Our goal was having 200 people come in and we are sitting right at that goal.”

This project has been an innovation for the state of Iowa and a model that other state universities are begin-ning to consider implementing. Mark Hansen, instructor of marketing and the advisor of PSE, is focusing on the possible future benefits of the program.

“What better way to get that person interested in finding out a way to go to school than giving them a little taste of college life?” Hansen said. “If I could reach out to a needy family who could be going to college one day… who knows what that could mean for enrollment numbers at UNI?”

The objective of donating the meals and having stu-dents sit down with families is to provide a connection and share stories of their lives.

Due to the overwhelming popularity of the first round of meals dispersed for the Thanksgiving time period, PSE has offered to commence another round December.

There is no limit as to how many meals a student wishes to donate, and there is no cutoff deadline. Simply go to the Survey Monkey site that PSE has offered and complete the necessary information.

“This is a great opportunity that we have made our own,” Hansen said.

Sue Follon Scholarship for Women in LeadershipDr. Sue Follon served as Vice President for Educational and Student Services at the University of Northern Iowa from 1985 until her death from lung cancer on November 4, 1998. She was the first woman to be named a vice president at UNI.

Dr. Follon’s leadership style was built on helping others develop their own gifts and “soar” in their own right. She was never one to seek the limelight herself, but rather concentrated on empowering others. She was known for her listening skills, her attention to the individual, and her commitment to community. Students and their development were her central focus, and she was a strong advocate for programs and policies which promoted this. She delighted in her interactions with students and called many by name.

Prior to coming to UNI, Dr. Follon served as the Executive Director of the Iowa Commission on the Status of Women from 1976-1985. She was untiring in her efforts to promote equality and justice. Former Governor Ray said, “I believe she moved the cause of women’s rights so far --- as much as any person I know. She knew people were adverse to change and understood that people responded to a cause when it was presented in a civil fashion.”

Dr. Follon received her B.S. degree in biology from Iowa Wesleyan College in 1963, her master’s degree in College Student Personnel Services from UNI in 1970, and her Ed.D. in Higher Education Administration from Drake University in 1983. She was born on June 22, 1942, to Oliver and Mary Rebecca Follon of Volga, Iowa. Other positions held included service as Assistant Dean of Students and Coordinator of Student Activities at Buena Vista College, Director of Campbell Hall at UNI, and high school teacher in Delmar. Her awards included the Cristine Wilson Medal for Equality and Justice, Salute Award for Outstanding Contributions to the Progress of Women, Iowa’s Outstanding Young Woman of the Year in 1976, and a Merit Award from the Iowa Wesleyan College Alumni Association.

Scholarship Guidelines for 2015-2016Description and Criteria: This scholarship recognizes students for their leadership contributions during their tenure at UNI and potential to model leadership for women. Applicants should show evidence of leadership potential through their awareness of social justice issues, including those affecting women and/or gender; desire to make a difference; demonstrated commitment to serving others; and ethical behavior. The com-mittee will consider both breadth and depth of leadership activities. Applicants must be undergraduate students who have completed at least 30 credit hours at UNI at the time of application and will be returning for the following academic year as an undergraduate student (both fall and spring semesters) and are required to be full-time students each semester. A cumulative grade point of 3.25 or higher is required.

Amount: $5,000 one-year award applied directly to the student’s university bill (half each semester).

Application Deadline: Applicants are required to use the University Scholarship Application at http://www.uni.edu/finaid/. The deadline for submission for currently enrolled students is February 15, 2015.

Award Presentation: The scholarship will be awarded in the spring.

Selection Process: Applicants must complete the University Scholarship Application and answer the following two questions under the “Aca-demics” section: • WillyoubeafulltimeUNIundergraduateforbothsemestersintheupcomingyear?• HaveyoubeeninvolvedinmakingexceptionalleadershipcontributionswhileatUNI?Ifyes,explainthesecontributionsandhowthey model leadership for women.Students meeting all minimum requirements and answering these questions on the form will be contacted after January 15 regarding further questions addressing the above criteria which are required for the Follon Scholarship selection process. Consideration will be given to the qual-ity and clarity of responses. The selection committee will screen the applications and make the selection. Should there be no qualified applicant in a given year, the scholarship will not be awarded.

Selection Committee: The selection committee will be composed of at least three faculty/staff and at least one upper level or graduate student involved with programming activities, which promote women and leadership.

“We want to show how great the community is and also provide them with a meal for the night,” Spengler said.

Pi Sigma Epsilon has asked students to sign up to donate their meals through an online survey including their name, major and when they are avail-able to meet with families who benefit from this program.

Participating families, regis-tered with the Northeast Iowa Food Bank, indicate when they are available to meet and how

many family members plan on attending the meal.

One week after opening the survey, Pi Sigma Epsilon received 383 meals (approxi-mately $3887) from 50 stu-dents to help pay for the 160 family members who are inter-ested in attending.

“We were concerned that students wouldn’t want to sit with them and they wouldn’t want to donate meals, we just sent it out there and got 400 meals in a week,” Clark said. “Our goal was having 200 peo-ple come in and we are sitting right at that goal.”

This project has been an innovation for the state of Iowa and a model that other state universities are start-ing to consider implementing. Mark Hansen, instructor of marketing and the advisor of PSE, is focusing on the pos-sible future benefits of the program.

“What better way to get that person interested in find-ing out a way to go to school than giving them a little taste of college life?” Hansen said. “If I could reach out to a needy family who could be going to college one day . . .

who knows what that could mean for enrollment numbers at UNI?”

The objective of donating the meals and having students sit down with families is to provide a connection and share stories of their lives.

Due to the overwhelming popularity of the first round of meals dispersed for the Thanksgiving time period, PSE has offered to host anoth-er round December.

There is no limit as to how many meals a student wishes to donate and there is no cut-off deadline. Simply go to the Survey Monkey site PSE has offered and complete the nec-essary information.

“This is a great opportunity that we have made our own,” Hansen said.

The University of Northern Iowa and Cedar Valley United Way part-nered up to fundraise for charities supporting families in need Nov. 3 through Nov. 14 in an effort personally supported by UNI President Bill Ruud.

“[The United Way Campaign] is a wonderful opportunity to come togeth-er to make a difference in our community,” said President Ruud in a statement on the Office of the President’s website.

The 2014 drive aimed to collect $75,000. This is an ambitious goal, as they collected $41,000 in 2013’s drive, said Angela Winder,

member of the UNI United Way planning committee and instructor for leisure youth & human services.

The student campaign alone has raised over $2,000 so far, Winder said.

United Way’s philosophy is that working together is an excellent way to improve the community by measuring impacts of funded programs.

The program assists 38 Cedar Valley non-profits, Winder said. These non-profit organizations seek to advance the schooling, heath and financial self-sufficiency of families in the area.

By targeting specific prob-lems, they hope to improve the quality of life for people of all ages who struggle with these issues, said Winder.

United Way campaign participants, or “champions,” encourage University of Northern Iowa faculty, staff and students to benefit the Cedar Valley community.

“It’s easy for faculty,

staff and students to find an issue or cause they care

about that is also supported by the United Way,” Winder said in reference to the wide variety of charities United Way serves. “Faculty and staff are invited to make a one-time donation or give through payroll deduction.”

Donors are given a guar-antee by the organization that they are addressing real problems.

“Cedar Valley United Way conducts needs assessments to identify the key issues facing our community and follows up regularly with funded partner agencies to ensure they are achieving real outcomes,” Winder said.

The final outcome of the drive has yet to be officially announced.

It’s not an ad, it’s a cry for help

The end of the fall semes-ter is in sight and, for most people, the joys of Christmas break and the excitement of not having to do anything for a month is on the tip of their minds. However, for most seniors, like myself, who haven’t found a job or have no idea what they are doing after graduation, the end of the semester is acting like a check engine light for our lives, do we have a plan?

I will admit my plan, or

what I have thought up in my mind, is a little out there. I plan on moving to New York City to pursue stand-up com-edy. Of course, I can’t just pack up my things, move to the big apple and expect to become Louis C.K. immedi-ately. Although that would be nice, I am aware I will most likely be living in a dump that costs more to rent each month than I myself am even worth.

None of this can happen without one simple thing: a job.

The “J” word alone has been on my mind since I completed an internship this summer. Last year it was all about landing an internship and pretending to be an adult.

This year, the time has finally come.

I am supposed to get a job after graduating? I feel like it was just yesterday my friend and I were sitting on the ninth floor of Dancer Hall with-out a care in the world. Our biggest struggles in life then were getting to Dashes before it opened to avoid a large line and reading a chapter for humanities.

Now, I have to find a job,

look for an apartment, start paying all my bills myself and on top of all of that, I have to figure out how I am going to move the small amount of stuff I have across the country.

I know I am not alone. As May comes closer each day, more Facebook statuses about people finding a job after graduation, the more my blood pressure continues to increase. What if I don’t find a job? What if I don’t end up

finding one for months and have to stay in Cedar Falls or, even worse, move in with my parents?

Some days I wish I was Paris Hilton and was born into an affluent family.

It would be amazing never having to worry about money and having the connections around the world to get any-thing you wanted, but then I remember the shame that being Paris Hilton would bring to someone. I am happy for my shortcomings.

I will find a job, maybe it won’t be ideal and maybe it will include getting coffee for someone and being their errand boy but, hey, we all have to start somewhere right?

Allow me to paint you a picture: there is a headshot of a distressed man. He’s wearing a suit and tie. His entire head is tilted to the side, his brow is rather fur-rowed and his mouth agape. Intensely squinted eyes gaze back. If this were the entire picture, I may draw a few varied conclusions: he’s wor-ried for an upcoming business presentation, he did some-thing his boss is going to be unhappy with…perhaps he even has heartburn.

Let me add an element to the picture. He is not only wearing a tie but he’s touch-ing it. And more than touch-ing it, the tie happens to be the most prominent element of the photo. Pulled up along the side of his face, his tie is clutched tightly in his grasp. Hand held over head, grip-ping his tie in semblance of an uncertain strangling, this man stares off the page in a silent, yet poignant plea for help.

Where is this photo locat-ed? Where can you find this self-induced restrained indi-vidual? The Northern Iowan: “The University of Northern Iowa’s Student Produced Newspaper Since 1892.” To what end does this desperate appeal source? An advertise-ment. An advertisement for none other than the Northern Iowan itself.

I wish I could tell you the words accompanying this unsightly photo were of any significance. Meant to act

as some relatively distorted form of encouragement to seek help from mental health professionals…. But it isn’t.

As some method of sardon-ic advertisement, the words “We need you to help us!!” are capitalized across the top. It is further accompanied by the description: “The Northern Iowan is now accepting appli-cations for ad sales position. No experience necessary. Should have interest in sales. Great resume builder and will gain work experience in sales. Applications can be picked up in the Northern Iowan office (lower level of the Maucker Union). The Northern Iowan is looking for staff writers! Find out what’s going on around campus! Write gen-eral Campus Life and News stories, build your resume, meet new people, gain bet-ter writing skills and so much more! Email Executive Editor Amber Rouse at [email protected].”

In one of the most dis-tasteful marketing strate-gies I have bourne witness to, the insinuation is the act of killing oneself intention-ally. What does this say about paper? That it is under so much pressure the only pos-sible option is that of delib-erate death? That the other ad salesmen are so burdened they need rescued because they have begun the unthink-able act of hanging them-selves?

Just 0.30 seconds after entering the phrase, “implica-tions of a picture of someone hanging themselves with a tie” the search engine returns 98,700,000 results. The first one? “Suicide by hanging – Wikipedia – the free encyclo-pedia.” The other 98,699,999?

Suicide associated links. Nothing referencing the

acceptance of ad sales posi-tion applications. Nothing promoting resume building. Nothing encouraging the dis-covery of campus happen-ings. Nothing about gaining

better sales skills. In a culture already sat-

urated with an over-abun-dance of pain, suffering, darkness, and death – was it really necessary to sensa-tionalize a devastatingly seri-ous issue? According to the

World Health Organization, every 40 seconds someone commits suicide. EVERY. 40. SECONDS. And the student newspaper made a mockery of it.

Yes, Northern Iowan, you DO need help.

For the past 17 years, the underground rap scene has been dominated and con-trolled by the hip-hop col-lective, Atmosphere. The group, consisting of rap-per Slug and producer Ant, have reached their success through rigorous touring and albums that all listeners can immediately sink their teeth into.

“Southsiders,” the group’s eighth studio album, moves away from the live instru-mentation that was heard in the preceeding album, “The Family Sign,” and focuses more on Ant’s beats and Slug’s introspective lyricism.

As the group gets older

and more mature, so does their music. In the group’s earlier albums, women, alco-hol and sex were prominent themes, which many gravi-tated towards.

Now it’s a little bit differ-ent for the 42-year old rapper from Minneapolis. Married and a father of two, Slug’s rhymes have changed sig-nificantly, leading to mixed reviews with old fans.

“I highly doubt that y’all think about sex/ Nearly as often as I think about death,” Slug confesses in the track “Fortunate.”

In “My Lady Got Two Men,” Slug finally gets an understanding of women and his place with his wife.

“One Tree Hill” actor serenades campusCampus Activities Board

hosted Tyler Hilton in the Maucker Union ballroom for a free concert Thursday night.

Hilton is most known for his role as Chris Keller on “One Tree Hill” and his acoustic music. Many stu-dents took advantage of the free show.

As students entered the ballroom, they saw a stage set up with guitars and colored lights that moved across the back of the ball-room.

Chris Walton, sophomore

study of religion major, opened for Hilton, playing acoustic cover songs of well-known hits including “The A-Team” by Ed Sheeran and Nick Jonas’s current hit “Jealous.”

The crowd cheered dur-ing his performance. Once he was finished with his set, the crowd waited for Hilton to take the stage.

Hilton promoted new songs from his next album, “Indian Summer,” along with some previous work and acoustic covers of hit songs including Rihanna’s “Stay.”

Throughout the show, he played songs from “One Tree Hill” including “Missing

You” and “When The Stars Go Blue,” which filled the room with many cheers from fans of the former hit TV show.

A couple of fans asked Hilton to play the “Toaster Pastry” song from “One Tree Hill.” Hilton claimed he didn’t remember how it went since they made it up on set one day, but it is a common request he has got-ten at the last few shows he played.

“It was amazing. I loved every second of it. Tyler was so funny and personable and I really enjoyed myself,” Jules Bertagnolli, freshman biochemistry major.

Bertagnolli said she is a huge “One Tree Hill” fan and attended the concert for a chance to see Hilton in person.

Hilton continuously made jokes especially about the Iowa cold, lack of phone reception and his life, giv-ing fans the opportunity to interact with him through-out the show.

Once the show finished, Hilton hung around for a while to meet and talk to fans. Students had the oppor-tunity to take pictures with Hilton on a Polaroid cam-era to be autographed for fans to purchase for a unique memento of the night.

Hilton’s new album, “Indian Summer” is set to release on Tuesday, Nov. 18 in stores and online.

TWLOHAcontinued from page 1

Founded in 2006, TWLOHA is a non-profit organization focusing on mental illness, including depression, suicide, addiction and self-injury. Tworkowski got the idea to establish TWLOHA when his friend, Renee, struggled with addic-tion. Tworkowski saw an opportunity to help her.

The goal of this move-ment is to provide resourc-es for those suffering with mental illness and give them inspiration. TWLOHA has reached across the world and they have had an outpouring of support.

UNI’s chapter of To Write Love on Her Arms was founded in 2009.

“A lot of people struggle with mental illness,” said Randi Smith, junior English major and TWLOHA sec-retary. “It [the issues] hit a little close to home.”

Smith said mental illness needs to be brought to UNI’s attention due to the statistics of mental illness among col-lege students.

Guitarist and singer Steven McMorran opened the event with a few origi-nal pieces. Tworkowski used McMorran’s music as inspi-rations for reaching out to people because music creates a way to feel and express emotions.

The event focused on Tworkowski and Renee’s story through addiction and a constant fight to keep going. Laughter spread throughout the auditorium in response to Tworkowski’s stories and jokes, despite the seriousness of the topic.

The organization’s name, To Write Love On Her Arms, arose from a particular inci-dent involving Renee. In the midst of using drugs and spiraling into a deep depres-sion, she took a razor blade to her arm and wrote the words “Fuck up.”

Jamie hoped to change that perception of her identity into something more positive.

“We paint a picture that becomes our image of how we want people to see us . . . there’s a big divide,” Tworkowski said.

Tworkowski touched on

why people are not often aware of the problems hap-pening among people with mental illness.

“It’s possible to change . . . life can change,” Tworkowski said.

Resources are made avail-able on TWLOHA’s web-site for those dealing with these issues without knowing where to turn.

To close the event, Tworkowski asked the audi-ence who had been affected by any of the issues that TWLOHA aims to help. Over half of the crowd raised their hands. He hoped this image would stick in peoples’ minds as an impact of mental illness on those directly involved and the people who care about them.

Tworkowski left the stage with a round of applause from the audience.

Rachel Hall, senior English teaching major, has followed the story and group for a few years now.

When asked if the event lived up to her expectations, Hall said, “Definitely…it’s so very different to hear a story come to life.”

MUSICcontinued from page 4

“My lady got two lov-ers/ One for the funk and the other for the comfort/ I’m trying to understand/ But I gotta figure out that I’m both of them.”

A few songs, however, lack in powerful lyricism such as “We Ain’t Gonna Die Today” and “Star Shaped Heart” but are eas-ily revived thanks to Ant’s flawless production on the album. “Kanye West” is a great, up-beat track that is a must-see performed live as is “January On Lake Street.”

Slug also pays proper respect to his late friend, Michael “Eyedea” Larsen,

who passed away in 2010 in the song “Flicker.”

The album is a fine lis-ten all the way through. Slug isn’t a rapper to stand on ceremony. As he chang-es through life, so does his music.

“Southsiders” is a look into where the group is now in their life. Ant’s production gives it a feel of old school Atmosphere while Slug’s maturing rhymes are something few fans can’t connect to, how-ever, Slug is still candid and honest as ever which will always drive the group’s success.

Jacobson earns record 167th winUniversity of Northern

Iowa head basketball coach Ben Jacobson earned his school record 167th win as his team defeated the University of North Dakota 64-52 on Saturday.

“We, as the players, feel really honored to be a part of the team here at UNI,” said Seth Tuttle. “We are pretty lucky to have a good coach like him.”

Tuttle put the first points on the board with a 3-point-er. Tuttle finished the game with a career-tying 24 points.

North Dakota answered with a 7-0 run that kept them in the lead for the majority of the half.

Tuttle and Wes Washpun kept the deficit pretty thin. The first half was a tug-of-war as the teams were tied eight times and 12 lead changes. Nate Buss drained a three at 1:05 to give the Panthers a 31-29 lead at the end of the half.

North Dakota started the second half by tying the

game but UNI had other plans. Tuttle put in a layup that started a 9-0 run and kept the Panthers in the lead

for the remainder of the game. Nate Buss, who had an early season injury, made his season debut and con-

tributed with 12 points that all came from behind the 3-point line. Tuttle finished the game strong scoring 14

of his 24 in the second half. He also led the game with nine rebounds.

Coach Jacobson passed former UNI coach O.M. “Hon” Nordly on UNI’s all-time leader in wins list, a record held for the past 60 years.

“I’m really lucky to be our head coach,” Jacobson said. “This is a great uni-versity and community. We have an opportunity because of those things. It is really lucky that my name is on this. This is a terrific, terrific place.”

Washpun and Tuttle felt honored to be part of mak-ing history.

“It is definitely special to be a part of this with all the great teams he’s had over the years,” Washpun said.

Washpun finished with 15 points, including 7 of 10 from the free throw line.

UNI will continue the season against Stephen F. Austin on Tuesday Nov. 18 at 8 a.m. in Texas. That game will be part of ESPN’s College Hoops Tip-Off Marathon on ESPN2.

MIKE DUNLOP/Northern IowanSeth Tuttle (10) tied his career high in scoring on Saturday with 24 points, his 14th 20-plus scoring game at UNI. Tuttle also added a game-high nine rebounds.

FOOTBALL

UNI wins fourth straight

Defense was the name of the game as UNI beat Southern Illinois 40-21 on Saturday in Carbondale, Ill. While the Salukis were able to move the ball for 354 yards, the Panther defense shut down their chanc-es by forcing four turnovers. The Panther offense kept it to about 300 yards and only one turnover.

The first quarter started out slowly as both defenses

played well and limited each other’s offense. UNI struck first at the 3:30 mark as Brion Carnes found Braden Lehmen in the endzone for an 18-yard touchdown. That would be the only score in the first quarter.

SIU were set up to score early in the second quarter, but their field goal sailed wide right.

Ryan West threw his first pick of the game to Max Busher who returned it to the one yard line.

With 2:30 left in the first

half, West threw his second pick, this one to Tim Kilfoy who returned it for six to put UNI up 21-0. SIU missed another field goal with 17 sec-onds left.

The second half opened with long drives and no scores until Tate Omli recov-ered a fumbled snap by the SIU punter in the endzone. Michael Schmadeke’s point after attempt was blocked with UNI leading 27-0.

SIU answered as on the following drive West found Mycole Pruitt for the six-yard score.

Johnson struck right back with a 30 yard touchdown rush. The third quarter ended with a 33-7 score.

Ray Mitchell opened the fourth quarter with a 33-yard interception return, mov-ing him to the top of UNI’s all-time list for career inter-ception return yards. Carnes found Brett LeMaster on the next play for a touchdown.

With time in short supply the Panther defense allowed two more touchdowns to bring the final to 40-21. Jake Farley had a career-high 15 tackles.

Next weekend, the Panthers end the regular season on senior night at home in the UNI-Dome against Missouri State at 4 p.m.

MIKE DUNLOP/Northern IowanThe Panther defense forced Southern Illinois to commit four turnovers, including a 7-yard interception return touchdown from Tim Kilfoy.

VOLLEYBALL

Panthers split regular season home finale

The University of Northern Iowa volleyball team rounded out their reg-ular season home schedule over the weekend with a 3-1 win over Indiana State and a 1-3 loss to Missouri Valley Conference leader Illinois State.

The Panthers jumped out to an early lead on Friday against the Sycamores, finding themselves up 10-4. The Sycamores fought back and cut the UNI lead to one before the Panthers rattled off four straight points to take control of the set down the stretch, 25-20.

It was much of the same in the second and most dominate set of the night for UNI. Five different Panthers recorded a kill in the early moments of the set, taking a 9-1 lead. UNI was dominant the rest of the set, picking up a 25-12 win.

Indiana State bounded back in the third set, scor-ing seven of nine points in a short stretch to give them a 20-17 lead. UNI fired back with a run of their

own, but it was too little too late as the Sycamores extended the match with a 27-25 win.

The Panthers returned to their dominant ways in the fourth set, extending their lead little by little the entire set as they took it 25-17.

On Saturday, UNI faced off against an Illinois State who has not lost a MVC game this season. The Redbirds would keep the undefeated in-conference record perfect as they held UNI to a .13 attacking per-centage in the win.

Down 2-0 in the match and 11-10 in the third set, UNI fought back with seven straight points to take a 17-11 lead. The Panthers held on in a back-and-forth affair for the remainder of the set, taking a 25-19 win before dropping the set and match with a 25-16 loss in the fourth set.

UNI will round out MVC regular season play on the road against Bradley and Loyola over the weekend before begin-ning MVC Tournament play on Thursday, Nov. 27 in Cedar Falls.
