In Final State of Univ. Address,

areas in which he said the University already excels and where there are opportunities to further contribute to the campus and “general good ”

At his final State of the University address Friday morning, President David Skorton reflected on areas that Cornell has showed strength in since its founding, as well as issues that the University faces moving into the future

Skorton said that Cornell has “remained true ” to its founding ideals, being able to adapt to the growing needs of students and the greater society surrounding them

“One-hundred and fifty years ago, we took what was best in the established colleges and augmented it with an approach that would address the needs of post-Civil War America at the start of what has been called the Second Industrial Revolution,” he said “We aspired to welcome students women as well as men from all races and religious beliefs from the United States and other countries and from all economic circumstances ”

Transitioning into the present, Skorton outlined

One of these areas sustainability has been a strength of the University due in part to Cornell’s Atkinson Center for a Sustainable Future, according to Skorton The center brings together more than 400 faculty members with expertise in the areas of energy and the environment as well as economic development

“Among the very first places we should seek to sustain a more sustainable future is right on our own campuses, ” Skorton said “Last February I committed Cornell to creating a plan to accelerate our efforts to achieve carbon neutrality on this campus by 2035 a full 15 years sooner than originally planned and committed ”

Another area that will become increasingly central to the University’s identity, according to Skorton, is public engagement

Cornell broke ties with apparel manufacturer JanSport due to worker safety concerns in Bangladesh, the University announced Friday

The partnership officially ended after President David Skorton sent a letter to Eric Wiseman, chief executive officer of the VF Corporation, the parent company of JanSport, according to the University In the letter, Skorton said he was concerned about for VF’s factory operations in Bangladesh

“The sheer size of VF’s presence and influence in Bangladesh behooves the company to support all initiatives designed to improve worker and fac-

tory safety,” Skorton wrote in the letter

In May, Cornell threatened to cut its affiliation with JanSport if its parent company did not sign the Accord on Fire in Building Safety which seeks to make all Bangladesh apparel factories safe workplaces by Sept 30, according to the University The Accord, a legally binding agreement, mandates publicly reporting the results of factory safety inspections

Skorton said that Cornell would be “happy” to renew its partnership with JanSport in the future if the company decides to sign the worker safety agreement

By ZOE FERGUSON Sun Senior Writer

After announcing it had exceeded its original $4 75 billion goal over the summer, the University has increased its “Cornell Now” campaign goal by one billion dollars, President David Skorton announced Friday

The campaign surpassed its initial goal after reaching at least $4 79 billion by the end of June, the University announced last month At his final State of the University address Friday, Skorton announced Cornell’s new campaign goal

“Inspired by the momentum we have already achieved and pending formal board approval later today, I am pleased to announce that we plan to set a new campaign goal of $5 75 billion to be achieved by the Cornell Now campaign’s official end in December 2015,” he said Skorton said that the additional funds raised towards this new goal will support Cornell Tech, in addition to the Ithaca campus and Weill Cornell Medical College, which are already indicated as beneficiaries of the Cornell Now campaign

“Our dreams are fueled and our endeavors [are] bolstered by the tremendous generosity of Cornell’s alumni, parents and friends,” Skorton said “ Thanks to you and other Cornellians, our total giving continues to raise above the $4 75 billion goal we surpassed last summer and separately the $600 million raised so far for Cornell

Tech ”

Skorton said he will continue to pursue this new fundraising goal, adding that he believes Cornell will reach the milestone before December 2015

“I will do all I can to advance us toward this ambitious new goal during my remaining time at Cornell,” Skorton said “I have no doubt that Elizabeth Garrett, who will become Cornell’s 13th president on July 1, is superbly equipped to move us for ward in this and in so many other ways ”

Skorton said he thinks the Cornell Now campaign has

enhanced the school and will continue to do so through 2015 “ We are buoyed by the success of the Cornell Now campaign, to which so many of you have contributed, and the momentum we have going into this sesquicentennial year, ” Skorton said “I know we can continue to contribute to societal progress and individual success ”

Cornellians Dedicate Sesquicentennial Grove

By GABRIELLA LEE Sun Staff Writer

In a j o i n t c e l e b r a t i o n o f Cornell’s sesquicentennial and Ho m e c o m i n g w e e k e n d , s t udents, faculty and alumni gathered to formally dedicate the

S e s q u i c e n t e n n i a l

C o m m e m o r a t i v e Gr ov e o n Friday

The grove, which opened this semester, features 15 quotations and 26 events on a timeline engraved on the benches and walkway “in the hopes of capturing the spirit and histor y of this special university,” according to Natalie Rosseau ’16, the undergraduate student member of the Sesquicentennial Committee

Prof Isaac Kramnick, govern-

ment, said he thought of the idea in 2010 when initial planning for the sesquicentennial celebrat i o n s b e g a n He n o t e d t h a t Cornell’s 100th birthday was not marked by the creation of any buildings, markers or plaques on campus

“One of our first decisions was that the 150th bir thday, unlike the 100th, would leave its mark,” Kramnick said “Be it a building, a set of plaques, whate v e r i t w o u l d b e , i t s t h e m e would be an effort to capture and represent Cornell’s unique histor y and spirit the features that make it so special among institutions of higher learning in America ”

After securing the New York a

Weiss/Manfredi, cofounded by Michael Manfredi ’80, to design s o m e t h i n g c o m m e m o r a t i ve o f Cornell’s sesquicentennial, the idea for a grove documenting C o r n e l l’s h i s t o r y w a s b o r n , according to Kramnick

“ Their firm had a reputation for innovative blending of structural and landscape design It was their genius that came up with the idea of this magnificent grove as the way to convey the rich tapestr y of Cornell histor y, with its engraved benches, its timeline underfoot and its plantings,” Kramnick said

Ad d i t i o n a l l y, t h e f i r m o f Weiss/Manfredi also chose the grove ’ s location at the upper edge of Libe Slope overlooking West Campus, Cayuga Lake and the

Town of Ithaca, as a link to the s t a t u e s o f E z r a C o r n e l l a n d Andrew Dickson White on the Arts Quad Rosseau also spoke about the significance of the grove ’ s location

“ I c u r re n t l y l i v e o n We s t Campus and have walked by this grove ever y day on my way to class,” she said “ This memorial is a lasting testament to the scholarship, passion, ingenuity and idealism of a university students have come to love ”

In a d d i t i o n t o K r a m n i c k’s and Rousseau’s remarks at the dedication and a performance by t h e C o r n e l l G l e e C l u b a n d

C o r n e l l Un i v e r s i t y C h o r u s , Robert Harrison ’76, chair of the Board of Trustees, also thanked the sesquicentennial Board of Trustees for funding the construction of the grove

“Many future generations of C o r n e l l i a n s w i l l b e n e f i t f ro m this generous birthday present to Cornell,” Harrison said

Se s q u i c e n t e n n i a l C o m m i t t e e Nancy Meinig ’62 said that the sesquicentennial would conclude in 2015, she added that she hoped the grove would ser ve as a n o n - g o i n g re m i n d e r o f Cornell’s histor y “Set here in granite and on this eternal hill, these words will s t a n d a s t h e y e a r s p a s s , ” K r a m n i c k s a i d “

Skorton Talks Public Engagement, Diversity

Gives nal State of University address

SKORTON

Continued from page 1

“Public engagement already enriches the intellectual, social and professional lives of our students, faculty and staff,” he said “Just last week, we announced a new initiative, Engaged Cornell, that proposes to dramatically scale up our efforts in the next 10 years ”

The $150 million plan, partially funded by a $50 million gift from the Einhorn Family Charitable Trust, will require all undergraduate students to participate in community-engaged coursework by 2025, The Sun previously reported

Skorton also outlined some of the “continuing” and “increasing” challenges that Cornell, as well as other institutions of higher education, face These topics ranged from the cost and affordability of a college education to issues of campus diversity and faculty tenure

“In addition to continuing our robust program of need-based financial aid, we need to work to attenuate the rate of rise of tuition by controlling the costs of operating this university,” he said

Besides stressing the affordability of education, Skorton said he believes all members of the Cornell community benefit when people of “ many backgrounds and differing perspectives” are welcomed at Cornell

“As of last fall, underrepresented minorities only accounted for about 7 percent of faculty, 5 percent of other academic employees and 6 percent of non-academic staff,” he said “In attracting and selecting students, faculty and staff, we must seek out excellence from as broad a pool as possible ”

He also said it was important to defend the “institution of tenure, ” though it must be coupled with “ more robust faculty-directed, posttenure review ”

“Tenure is very important in my estimation to recruiting and retaining the best faculty and by extension, institutional excellence,” Skorton said Looking forward, Skorton said the University must reach out to serve the wider society on a more expansive scale

“By taking a hard look at the issues I’ve mentioned and many others that surely will arise in finding the right balance, I know we can continue to contribute to societal progress and individual success, ” he said

C.U. SHIP Expands Dental, Vision Care

INSURANCE

Continued from page 1

and in Ithaca, according to Lyon Eligible students from New York State unenroll in their current Medicaid plan and enroll in CUSHIP-M to receive the benefits

“The state thought this was a real win-win from the context of providing better access to care and increased portability of health insurance coverage, ” Lyon said “From a cost point of view, the cost of the student health plan was less expensive than what it costs the state of New York to pay for health insurance through Medicaid and it works better in Ithaca ”

According to Jo Ann MolnarKieffer, a student insurance administrator and member of the University’s Student Insurance Advisory Committee, the lack of plan coverage in Ithaca has meant most Medicaid recipients do not actually meet Cornell’s minimum coverage requirements, as monitored over the last several years

“Most Medicaid plans pose an access-to-care issue,” MolnarKieffer said “Now that we ’ ve created this CUSHIP-M program with the state, enrolled students have the benefit of a SHIP plan here [in Ithaca] with the same benefits of Medicaid back home ”

A pilot group of 220 Medicaid-eligible undergraduates from New York State was created this year to test the program at Cornell, according to Lyon If

deemed successful and authorized by the state, the CUSHIP-M program could become available for all New York State residents next academic year

“There’s been a learning curve about how the two programs work together but we ’ ve had good feedback so far from students who’ve been involved,” MolnarKieffer said Lyon said that if more states begin to adopt Medicaid plans into their college health insurance plans, then students from those states will also potentially be eligible for CUSHIP-M

“ We’re hoping other states adopt [the plans],” Lyon said “ We know New Jersey, Pennsylvania are looking at it The more states that adopt it the more it becomes a national phenomenon and then we’ll have greater portability of coverage for college students ”

Besides the CUSHIP-M program, the standard SHIP has some new benefits this year, including a membership reimbursement deal with Cornell Fitness Centers and expanded options for dental and vision care

According to Ian Mahoney, data analyst for Gannett, the fitness membership reimbursement is another result of health care reform in New York State

“It’s now an ‘Essential Benefit’ in New York State that plans need to have some kind of reimbursement for exercise facilities,” Mahoney said “[The Office of Student Health Insurance]

immediately thought this would be a good partnership opportunity with Cornell Fitness Centers, so we set up a program with them to allow students meeting certain requirements to be eligible for a reimbursement of some of their fee for joining the fitness center ”

Besides this, there are new dental and vision plans that can be enrolled in by students According to Molnar-Kieffer, these initiatives resulted following suggestions raised by the Graduate and Professional Students’ Assembly last year in Resolution 19, which called for an a University option for dental care The option is now available for enrollment by any student

Tara Gadde ’15, a student representative for the SIAC, said the new options are an example of the “cooperative effort” that can take place between student government and policy makers

“I think it was a really good example of students and the people who are making the policy coming together in a sort of cooperative effort to make this change,” Gadde said “I think something the committee is constantly trying to balance is making sure students have full coverage but also minimizing out of pocket costs The committee really takes that into account every step of the way when trying to come up with new recommendations ”

Remembering Rachel Corrie

Today, actress Ashley Malloy will perform the stage play My Name is Rachel Corrie in the Memorial Room of Willard Straight Hall As people across the world continue to stand in solidarity with Palestinians, especially after the relentless two-month-long pummeling of Gaza this summer, Cornellians would do well to remember the life of Rachel Corrie Rachel Corrie was an American college student who went to Gaza in 2003 as part of a senior-year assignment to connect her hometown Olympia, Washington with Rafah in the Gaza strip in a sister cities project While in Gaza, she was an active part of the International Solidarity Movement and engaged in nonviolent resistance against the Israeli military On March 16, 2003, as she stood in the way of a Palestinian home being demolished, Rachel was crushed to death by an IDF Bulldozer

In many ways, the stor y of Rachel Corrie's death symbolizes every story of Israeli aggression The facts, as always, were simple: The Israeli army killed Rachel Corrie To this day, Israel continues to try and weave a story that somehow makes it look 'better' than it was, with excuses such as "The operator didn't see her,” or she “ put herself in a dangerous situation" and so on None of these statements, however, can mask the fact that her death was a coldblooded murder committed with impunity

But even if words like ‘occupation,’ ‘blockade’ and ‘open-air prison’ mean nothing to you, the comparative death toll speaks for itself.

once, but that Palestinians continue to be blamed for their own deaths every day For example, once a house has been hit by a 'warning' missile, the IDF treats those inside as combatants for refusing to leave their homes A writer in the Wall Street Journal goes as far as to make the ludicrous claim that " to qualify as a civilian, one has to do more than simply look the part ” According to this logic, all Palestinians are by definition combatants unless they abjectly submit their lives and dignity to Israel and somehow 'qualify as civilian,’ whatever that means Israel committed an act of aggression, with the (no doubt profitable) complicity of a multi-national corporation (Caterpillar, by the way, continues to provide Israel with military bulldozers whose very purpose is to demolish homes It also provides construction machines used on Cornell’s campus) The United States looked the other way And instead of getting justice, the victim was blamed for it A massive public relations campaign from the Israeli government then did its best to cover up for these crimes This pattern as played out with the death of Rachel Corrie or Operation Protective Edge is not the exception but the rule

This impunity has been the hallmark of Israel's relationship with the Palestinian people across decades These past few months saw a brutal campaign that killed more than 2,000 Palestinians; children were ultimately the targets of attacks on the beach and in playgrounds, the wounded were targeted in ambulances and inside hospitals, families were obliterated in the safety of their homes

And, yet, the IDF found ways to sell even this story to the media, claiming that the massive operation was somehow an expression of Israel’s “right to defend itself ” Many in Israel lauded the use of warning missiles that would ‘knock on the roof ’ of homes before the more deadly strike, as proof of their commitment to ‘humane’ methods of war Flyers asking residents to leave were dropped over neighborhoods before they were bombed, conveniently criminalizing entire communities already living under one of the harshest blockades in recent times

But even if words like 'occupation,’ ‘blockade’ and 'open-air prison' mean nothing to you, the comparative death toll (2,104 Palestinian, 72 Israeli) speaks for itself When you defend acts like Operation Protective Edge, you defend mass murder

Rachel Corrie's parents sued the state of Israel for a symbolic one U S Dollar After almost ten years, an Israeli civilian court upheld the military investigation in 2003 which had concluded that the Israeli government was not responsible for her death Indeed, one soldier even said later, "Maybe she was hiding in there,” implying that Rachel had been responsible for her own death In what moral logic can the victim of a murder be responsible for her own death? Yet the chilling fact is not that this happened

Meanwhile, the conditions under which Rachel died the virtual inability of Palestinians to build homes on their own land have only gotten worse The “only democracy in the Middle East” has demolished more than 27,000 Palestinian homes, businesses, livestock facilities and other structures in the Occupied Palestinian Territories since 1967 A third of the structures in East Jerusalem are awaiting demolition orders, even as Jewish-only settlements continue to be added to the municipality’s limits This number is in addition to the hundreds of entire villages and neighborhoods which were emptied of their residents in the more overt form of ethnic cleansing carried out in 1948 According to the Israeli Committee on House Demolitions, more than 94 percent of Palestinian permit applications in recent years for East Jerusalem or 'Area C' (60 percent) of the West Bank have been denied by Israel

What is most inspiring about Rachel Corrie is that she took the leap from awareness to action Many of us know exactly what is going on in Israel-Palestine and yet fail to act The Palestinian people have suffered far too long for mere words or abstract ‘dialogue’ to make any difference Instead, we must work in solidarity with the people living under occupation and apartheid just as Rachel Corrie did in order to support indigenous resistance to modern colonialism For a start, we as consumers in American society or as members of the Cornell community can begin by honoring the call from Palestinian civil society to boycott, divest from and sanction Israel until it complies with human rights and international law

CORRECTION

An Oct 17 opinion column, “BARELY LEGAL: A Human Rights Approach to Domestic Violence,” incorrectly stated that police had found that Lenahan’s ex-husband had killed their three children, when in fact the officers had discovered the bodies of the victims in the back of Lenahan’s ex-husband’s truck

r , I c o n a P o p

BY EMILY FOURNIER Sun Staff Writer

Before the co-headlining acts Grace Potter and Icona Pop took the stage for the 2014 Cornell Concert Commission Homecoming Concert on Saturday night, a Tenessee-based band, which combines EDM-style deejaying and live instruments and vocals wowed the crowd in Barton Hall The Sun spoke with Five Knives’ lead vocalist Anna Worstell about their experience touring with Icona Pop, their plans for the future and the seeming oxymoron of being an EDM group in Nashville

THE SUN: What’s it like performing with Icona Pop?

A NNA WO RS TEL L: Well, we ’ ve had one show with them so far, and it was amazing We’ve been looking forward to this for months now We got to meet the girls before the show and they have a reputation of just being a lot of fun and super nice, which was all very true The crowd was really receptive to us, they were just very accommodating, and, I don’t know, I think it’s gonna be a great tour I can ’ t wait to play with them again

S UN: That sounds great Where did you most recently perform?

A W : We played in Columbia, South Carolina

SUN : Oh, much warmer than here in Ithaca, so that must have been nice

A W : Yeah!

S UN: Have you had concerts at a lot of universities before this tour, or would this be the first time?

A W : We’ve never done like a university-only tour We have played colleges before but this one ’ s more intense And actually, I think it’s gonna be great We’re really excited about it

S UN: So how do you guys feel about performing at a college homecoming? How does that compare to what you ’ ve done before?

A W : No, we ’ ve never done anything like that before, but bring it on I think it’s gonna be a party It’ll be really fun

S U N : Great! What’s the biggest audience you ve had before?

A W : I mean, we ’ ve played arena shows before probably about 15,000 [people] I mean, that’s not on the regular, but festivals and stuff like that We’ve played a few arenas with a few thousand people

SUN : It seems very different What’s next for the band after your current tour?

S UN: That sounds pretty huge So you guys do electronic music What sets you guys apart from other electronic music groups that we might have heard before?

A W : We’re like an electro-pop band We have a full band: I mean we have guitars, live drums it’s like a full-on D J set but with a band, and then it’s got a punk flair to it live We take our shows really seriously and we ’ re all super energetic and, you know, we like to just go crazy onstage and engage the fans and it’s different than just standing behind a D J booth, you know, but it has the same sort of aesthetic

S UN: Right, yeah, I watched a couple of your videos and you guys seem to be much more involved than those who just push a button And you ’ re the vocalist you have a lot of high energy songs it’s a lot more exciting

A W : Yeah, totally On this tour we ’ re playing all new music We’re actually playing all the songs from our new record that will drop at the top of next year So our music is definitely still high energy it’s a little bit different, though It’s a little bit more mainstream, I would say, as far as, like, the songwriting is concerned, but it’s great We’ve had a great response to it But yeah, we ’ re still bringing the energy

S UN: You guys are based in Nashville, right?

A W : We sure are

S u n : Has that influenced your music?

A W : Well, a lot of people are really shocked when they hear that we ’ re from Nashville because everyone just assumes that it’s all country music We were kind of like the first electronic full band to do anything in Nashville though, so it was kinda fun It was really fun

BY KAITLYN TIFFANY Arts and Entertainment Editor

A W : Well, we ’ re actually going to be flying out to L A to shoot a music video for one of our songs It’s for a song called “Sugar,” so that should be really fun We’ll probably have a few dates here and there, and we’ll do some D J sets, and then all the focus is gonna be on our record, which, like I said will drop at the top of next year, so that’s the main focus And then hopefully, knock on wood, we’ll be touring like crazy next year!

SUN : Sounds like a pretty full schedule!

A W : Yeah, it’s a lot, but we ’ re all really passionate about what we do and we have so much fun doing it

If you ’ ve been at Cornell for four years now, but haven’t been to a Homecoming concert, this is what you ’ ve missed: 2011 was an attempt at publicly settling the debate of whether B o B was anything without those Hayley Williams features (Answer: no) Need anything be said of 2012’s Avicii debacle? Without bordering on libel, I think it’s safe to say that bringing an EDM artist to a concert that will be filled with young people who have lots of disposable income and many, many “connections” will result in bleacher defecation and other evidence of unrestrained, anarchic youth (the nasty kind) Last fall’s one-two punch of Third Eye Blind and Ke$ha was nostalgia and nostalgia 2 0: Remember middle school? Remember 2009? But it was beautiful and it was glittery: Here’s to the emotional status updates of soon-to-graduate fratboys and the girl that I co-TA-ed with who went to a job interview with gold glitter on her collarbone on Monday morning

In comparison to these musical mixed bags of lore, 2014’s Homecoming lineup was anything but Grace Potter, who most of the Cornell population expressed apathy about pre-concert, won over the half-hostile, half-drunk-and-amiable crowd within minutes with her stunning bluesinfused vocals and dramatic stage presence The stand-out middle-of-the-set number was a brilliant combination of her hit single “The Lion, the Beast, the Beat” and a cover of one of Johnny Cash’s last singles, “God’s Gonna Cut You Down ” Potter drew lighters (hidden from Cornell Concert Commission door-checkers?) from pockets with her ballad, “Stars,” got a good,

old-fashioned sing-a-long going during her closing number, a cover of Joan Jett’s classic “I Love Rock ’ n Roll” and ultimately won Barton’s heart after promising that she too had gone to college in the “Great White North,” and that she too, partied to keep warm

The Swedish pop-duo Icona Pop was greeted somewhat more warmly with a Swedish flag!

The message there was either that Sweden is the only thing we know about Icona Pop or that Icona Pop is the only thing we know about Sweden Either way, the obvious besties started off their set with the sticky-sweet and catchy-as-hell, “All Night,” which repeats over a lightly pulsing beat, “with a love this deep, we don’t need no sleep and “ we have the keys to open paradise and is basically the most adorable dance jam ever

The pair delivered a pretty uncomfortable monologue about how they had read all of the college boys’ tweets about doing body shots off of their Swedish bellies and about how they were totally into it (?), but a way more fun bit about how great it was to have lady friends around They hugged! Which was a great segue into “My Girlfriend,” a bouncy ode to female friendship and the sweeter side of the man-hating coin that cropped up intermittently and teasingly in their biggest hit, “I Don’t Care (I Love It) ”

Even if the fun was a little bit tamer than in Homecomings past, the musical selection was infinitely more rewarding And kudos to Cornell Concert Commission for bringing such an overwhelming female line-up (even the opening act had a pink-haired crazy person as their front lady!), something that the Slope Day Programming Board has notoriously shied away from in every single year except 2009 (when the Pussycat Dolls headlined)

Defense Shines as Colts Blank Bengals

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Indianapolis has a message for the NFL: Its defense is pretty darned good

And it can win games, too

On a day Andrew Luck threw for 344 yards and two touchdowns Sunday and Indy ran for 171 yards, the Colts’ usually overlooked defense overshadowed its higher-profile offensive counterparts with a 27-0 shutout of Cincinnati

“We’ve always had confidence, but at the same time we want to humble ourselves and be on to the next game and try to do it again and again, and again, and again,” safety Mike Adams said after getting his first shutout in 11 NFL seasons

This was no fluke

Over the previous four games, all wins, the Colts (5-2) had forced eight turnovers, got 16 sacks and limited opponents to 18 8 points With a chance to crack into the top 10, Indianapolis’ numbers were every bit as good:

Andy Dalton was sacked three times Sunday compared with a leaguelow two in the previous five games

The Bengals, ranked No 5 in total offense, managed 135 total yards, 32 on the ground

Kevin Huber punted a franchise-record tying 11 times, 10 of which followed three-and-outs

And when the Colts needed a fourth-quarter red-zone stop to preserve the shutout, they got that, too

The Bengals (3-2-1) ran just eight plays in Colts territory, had only eight first downs and never had a chance after Dwayne Allen’s brilliant 32-yard catch-and-run made it 17-0

Indy did all that with Robert Mathis, the 2013 NFL sacks champ, relegated to waving a towel; starting defensive tackle Arthur Jones inactive; and starting linebacker Erik Walden ejected late in the first half for making contact with umpire Bruce Stritesky

Luck, who finished 27 of 42 and posted his sixth 300-yard game of the season, enjoyed every minute

“I’m just like a fan watching the game, I might as well just be a fan when our defense is out there,” he said

Luck wasn ’ t the only one applauding Indy’s breakout performance

With his six-game suspension over, Jim Irsay returned to the owner ’ s suite for the first time since the preseason After three years of preaching about the need to have a balanced offense and stingy defense, Irsay and each defensive player received a game ball

It was Indy’s first shutout since beating Tennessee in the final game of the 2008 season

Watkins Scores Winner With One Second Left

ORCHARD PARK, N Y (AP)

Quarterback Kyle Orton keeps delivering in the clutch since taking over the starting job in Buffalo And receiver Sammy Watkins is certainly showing signs of playing up to his dynamic first-round draft-pick promise for the Bills

The 10-year NFL journeyman and 21-year-old rookie combined for a 2-yard touchdown with 1 second left in a 17-16 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday

“Any time you get a chance to go on a game-winning drive, it’s awesome, ” Orton said “We hung in there, made some mistakes, but in the end we got the win, and that was our goal ”

Facing second-and-goal, Orton accepted the shotgun snap and immediately turned to his left, where he zipped a pass to Watkins who was a few yards deep in the end zone and had a step on cornerback Xavier Rhodes

The touchdown capped a 15play, 80-yard drive in a game the Bills offense turned the ball over four times and lost starting running backs C J Spiller and Fred Jackson to injuries

Orton shook off an interception and a lost fumble to finish 31 of 43 for 283 yards and two touchdowns, both to Watkins who finished with nine catches for 122 yards

“To make the last play to win

the game in Buffalo, it’s the best feeling ever, ” said Watkins

The player selected with the No 4 pick out of Clemson then smiled and referred to his teammates when asked about his rookie status, “I never really feel like a rookie except when those guys make me feel like one ” Orton, who signed with Buffalo a week before the start of the season, improved to 2-1 since replacing second-year starter EJ Manuel

He won his first start three weeks ago with a drive that set up Dan Carpenter’s 58-yard field goal with 4 seconds left in a 17-14 win at Detroit

The Bills (4-3) snapped a twogame home losing streak, and bounced back from a 37-22 loss to New England

The Vikings (2-5) lacked finish on both defense and behind the Teddy Bridgewater-led offense that managed one touchdown Cordarrelle Patterson’s 4-yard catch and three field goals on five trips inside the Bills 40

“There are no words that can describe this loss,” defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd said “It’s the last play of the game I’ve got nothing to say about that except it hurts ”

The Vikings had their opportunities, only to give Orton new life on the final drive that began with 3:07 left

Red Takes First Ivy Win, Stays in Title Contention

minute going just over

The Red recorded eight shots in the first half, with the first major opportunity of the period coming in the 38th minute Senior defender Peter Chodas floated a ball into the box from the right wing Freshman for ward Jonathan Cullom displayed lightning footwork to breeze past the Yale defenders only to scuff the shot

As the first half drew to a close there was a visible increase in Cornell urgency as the Red desperately pressed for the opener A Chodas corner caused confusion in the Yale box as they tried to clear it The ball landed with the Red, only for the last shot of the half to go well over the goal

Cornell started the second half threat-

DeProspo and sophomore for ward Chris St Germain leading to an opening, which the Red failed to convert

Cornell was met with a much more resolute Yale side in the second half as the Bulldogs began to apply some pressure on the Red defence, with a shot in the 48th

As the game wore on it got increasingly more end-to-end A DeProspo header found its way into the arms of the Yale keeper while a powerful run and shot by freshman defender Eric Nuss from his own half was also well collected

“ You have to give credit to the Yale goalkeeper; he came out with a couple of great saves, ” Zawislan said “ Yes, we want to score on those chances, they were ver y good chances but the Yale goalkeeper made some quality saves ”

With ten minutes to go the rain caused an already frantic game to get increasingly

affecting the play Cornell was struggling to get past the Yale keeper, displaying pace and power on the wings but often lacking in the center

However the Goepel goal soon after

response, with Cornell now happy to absorb the Bulldogs attacks as Yale went looking for an equalizer

Yale registered four shots on goal, with a corner kick in the dying seconds of the game representing a final throw of the dice Senior goalkeeper Zach Zagorski

found himself with 19 other men in his box as a shot by Yale took an awkward deflection and headed across the goal Zagorski was just able to track back and punch the ball over his own net, leading to gasps of relief from the Berman faithful “ We were just in sur vival mode; get ever ything out of the box and hang on for the win, so we were happy to do that,” Zagorski said

Bortles, Robinson Lead Jaguars to First Win of Season

JACKSONVILLE, Fla (AP) With Jacksonville on the verge of its first win of the season, the team mascot dived into one of the pools at EverBank Field

Denard Robinson and the Jaguars’defense could have done the same Then again, they had already made a huge splash

Robinson ran for a career-high 127 yards and a touchdown, the defense came up big in the red zone, and the Jaguars snapped a nine-game losing streak with a 24-6 victory against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday Jacksonville (1-6) won for the first time since beating Houston on Dec 15, 2013

you

“The last time I carried the ball 20 times I was in college,” said Robinson, a star quar-

terback at Michigan “It's a great feeling We knew it was coming We've just got to stack them and up and get back to work ” Blake Bortles connected with fellow rookie Allen Robinson for a 31-yard score and the game ' s first touchdown It was really all the Jaguars needed on a day in which coach Gus Bradley's defense delivered time and time again

Red Falls to Brown in Final Set

By ANNA FASMAN Sun Assistant Sports Editor

Tied, 2-2, the Cornell women ’ s volleyball team stepped onto the Brown Bears’ home court for its deciding set, ready to fight for the win After an eight-game losing streak, including a loss just the previous day to Yale, the Red was motivated to leave Providence with a victory However, after a set of back and forth games that led to the heartbreaking two-point loss in the final deciding set, Cornell finished the weekend with two more losses and a prevailing hunger for wins during the next round of Ivy play

Cornell (3-14-0) came into this weekend hoping to see its first win in a month However, despite strong performances from senior Libero Natasha Rowland on defense and the offensive duo of sophomore Macey Wilson and freshman Emily Wemhoff at the net, the Red was swept by Yale in three games with at least an eight-point deficit in each round Although the loss was disappointing, Wilson explained that the team had some strong points throughout the match

“We served tough against Yale, but Yale is a very physical team and we had more errors against them than Brown,” she said “We have had a lot of trouble with our hitting errors, but this weekend we improved a lot in that area, which allowed us to be competitive with the other teams ”

While the loss against Yale was a tough but swift one, the true disappointment came on Saturday against Brown The Red came very close to winning the whole match, taking two of the five games and dropping the fifth deciding game by only two points After another two-point loss in

Freshmen QBs Thrust Into Action

FOOTBALL

Continued from page 16

to take into account before the snap of the football that the two have not needed to take into account previously

“It goes from everything to calling the play Our offense is conceptually built, so knowing which concept is going on on which side and making sure the protection is what you want, checking the protection if it's not, ” Archer said “They need to make sure the motion happens, reading the motion, reading the coverage post-motion or if it’s a run play, reading the front premotion, reading the front post-motion, making sure those are lined up They need to snap the football on time and execute what you have to do in case everybody is moving after the snap ”

The lack of experience for both Jatis and Gallagher was front and center for the Red in its 31-14 loss against Lehigh (1-5) The two quarterbacks did not complete a pass until 5:34 left in the second quarter, a moment that sparked excitement That was until Jatis threw an interception into the hands of Mountain Hawks cornerback Brandon Leaks

Despite both gunslingers’ indecisions

throughout the first half, they flashed their talent in the second half in the form of a 58yard pass from Jatis to sophomore wide receiver Collin Shaw in the third quarter that accounted for the Red’s first score of the game and a 40-yard throw from Gallagher to Shaw again that set up the Red at the oneyard line This led to a touchdown pass from Gallagher to tight end Matt Doneth that brought Cornell within three points of Lehigh halfway through the fourth quarter

On the day, Jatis completed eight-of-23 passes (34 7 percent completion) with a touchdown and two interceptions Gallagher completed nin-of-21 passes (42 8 percent completion) with a touchdown and no interceptions

Jatis and Gallagher are in the middle of a very young offensive corps All rushing attempts on Saturday were made by freshmen, running backs Josh Sweet (11 carries for 53 yards), Demetrius Daltirus (11 carries for 46 yards), Jatis and Gallagher The leading pass catcher on the way was Shaw, who reeled in four balls for 119 yards and a touchdown

While the struggles of the Big Red’s offense is evident at the moment, Archer, who was noncommittal on who his starting quarterback would be moving forward, said

the first-round game, the Red came back strong in the next two games with help from Wilson, Wemhoff and freshman libero Chelsea Sincox, who took over for Rowland for part of the game In addition, sophomore setter Alyssa Phelps was able to assist the hitters well and get to the ball fast up front

The Red played a whole different game on Saturday, minimizing the amount of errors and sloppy mistakes on its side of the net Phelps explained that Yale was a strong team, but the Red really struggled because of its own faults

“The difference between both games was the amount of errors we made on our side of the net Yale is a very good team that doesn't make many mistakes; we played out a lot of long rallies but sometimes they just didn't go our way, ” she said “Against Brown we took care of what we could control and everybody contributed We played with a lot of fight that game and it stings to come up short by only two points ”

Moving forward, the Red prepares for the upcoming Ivy home games The team will face the Bears and Bulldogs once again, but it is confident that with a perceived home court advantage, it will be able to come out on top the next time around Wilson noted that this weekend helped the team get a sense of who it is up against and provided the women with confidence moving forward

“This weekend has helped prove to ourselves that we can play at a higher level than we have been We are really motivated to play and beat these teams to prove ourselves,” she said

Jatis and Gallagher will continue to grow into their roles under center as the season progresses

“They're playing a lot and the game moves too fast for them at times and that's what happens with a freshman quarterback What you ' re going to see is that this offense these kids work so hard and the coaching staff works so hard is that they're going to

keep getting better, keep getting better and it might not manifest itself in a certain stat or this or that or the other thing, but we know it's happening and then all of a sudden, bang, it's going to explode on the scene and they're going to say, 'Now I get it '”

Pannullo, Marrero Lead Offensive Charge in Loss to Navy

the entire game ” The Red’s offense put a great deal of pressure on Navy, which entered the matchup as the CSFL’s top-ranked scoring defense Cornell jumped out to a quick start, with linebacker Jino Park picking off a pass from Navy offender Joe Hampton on the foe’s second drive of the game to set the Red up inside the redzone

Sophomore quarterback Rob Pannullo connected with Marrero on the third play of the ensuing drive to give the Red a 7-0 lead at the 8:23 mark The Red’s 30-point finish was the highest total posted on the Mids since 2010 when powerhouse Army scored 32 in the final game of the season

“On the second defensive drive of the game, Jino Park grabbed a huge interception which set us up in the redzone for our first touchdown,” Marrero said “We let up some big plays afterwards, but we were able to stay in the game with great protection up front and Rob Pannullo making good plays in the passing game ”

The Red saw a standout performance from Pannullo, who set new career highs for completions, attempts, passing yards and passing touchdowns He went 23-of-48 for 295 yards and four passing touchdowns against a strong Navy defense

Back-and-forth offensive action continued throughout the game, with Navy taking a 28-17 lead entering halftime The Red opened the second half with possession, but Midshipmen senior Brady Flies short-cir-

cuited the drive with an interception at Navy’s 41-yard line Navy offenders

Hampton and junior Corey Garcia then worked together for a 59-yard pass and catch, extending Navy’s lead to 18 points at 35-17

Both teams were quiet for almost 15 minutes after that until the Red bounced back at the 13:45 mark of the fourth quarter with Pannullo’s third touchdown pass to set the score at 35-24 The Red could not sustain its momentum, however, and less than five minutes later the Mids scored another touchdown With just over five minutes to go, the Red fired back with a touchdown of its own for the final score of 42-30

Marrero said that the squad is working on eliminating mistakes moving forward and hopes to maintain its offensive momen-

tum in future matchups

“We left some points out on the field, but we ’ ve already started fixing these errors and are looking ahead towards the Post game, ” he said “We hope to keep our offensive momentum moving on in the season ” Junior defensive back Brent Weissman added that the 30 points scored in the game should have been enough to defeat the Mids

“We showed a ton of heart this weekend But when it came down to it we beat ourselves,” he said “We can ’ t score 30 points against Navy and lose But all we can do now is look forward to working hard to beat Post ”
