Sexual assault alert shakes community By Naomi Ward
NEWS STAFF WRITER Utah State University issued
an email alert Thursday afternoon to tell students a sexual assault had been reported
near campus in one of the fraternity houses.
The notice, sent out at
1:42 p.m., stated the report
had come from a third party. According to the notice, the assault had taken place on
Saturday, Aug. 31, although
the suspect is unknown. The
report also stated, “Drugs may have been used to facilitate
the crime.” No further details were provided.
Director of Crisis Communi-
cations and Issues Management Amanda DeRito said
because the report had come from a third party, the uni-
versity “does not have a lot of information at this time.”
“None of the fraternity hous-
es fall within the USU Police
Department’s jurisdiction, and USU cannot speak for local law enforcement,” DeRito
said. “We will be following all
of our procedures to look into the incident.”
DeRito said these alerts are

Superhero favorites are vanishing from the MCU again, except
this time, Thanos is not to blame.
On August 20, Sony released a statement announcing a split
with Disney after the two companies failed to reach an agreement over future Spider-Man movies and appearances. This means
the fan-favorite webslinger can no longer be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
This controversial decision has brought about a plethora of
fiery and passionate opinions from Marvel fans at Utah State University.
“I think it’s a bunch of corporate nonsense,” Eryn Hanson,
biochemical engineering major, said. “If people really cared about what the public wanted, this wouldn’t even be an issue. But
conglomerates like that only care about making the most money. I think it’s stupid.”
The original deal between Disney and Sony set in 2015 agreed
that, for movies featuring Spider-Man, Sony would finance the
n
movie and make 95% of the first-dollar gross profit, while Disney got the remaining 5% and all of the merchandising revenue. When the time came to create a new agreement in August,
Disney proposed a 50/50 co-financing deal. This means that,
while they would help finance 50% of the Spider-Man movies,
they would also make 50% of the profit. Sony wanted to leave the deal as it was, according to a Deadline report, and in the end, the companies withdrew their partnership and therefore, Spider-Man from the MCU.
Irene Van Horn, an international business major, was angry when

the stand-alone Spider-Man movies,” Van Horn said. “So Sony was just exercising their right as owners over the Spider-Man character to take back their character.”
When Sony released its statement announcing the split, there
was a huge public backlash on social media, with #cancelsony and #savespiderman trending for days. But as more and more
people looked into it, the negative views toward Sony began to change, with the negativity largely turning to Disney, as well. “I think Disney deserves it, but Sony also deserves it just as
much, because neither of them were willing to come to an
agreement for the sake of art and for the sake of pleasing their
fans,” Tyler Monson, journalism and communication major, said. “The enemy of all is corporate greed. Yes, Disney is greedy for
asking for more money on the Spider-Man movies, but they’re
also writing and directing and casting and doing everything on the work for the movies. Sony’s just paying for them.”
Spider-Man actor Tom Holland has agreed to continue his
contract and play Spider-Man for additional movies even though his character can no longer be in the MCU. Many fans like
Monson fear what this could mean for future Spider-Man movies now that such a major character arc has been taken away.
“The only option Sony has is to do a prequel movie, but I don’t

Album Review — DAD BOD’s “After Thought” ‘The epitome of chill rock’
By Alek Nelson STUDENT LIFE COPY EDITOR
“Dad bods” are not only a strange trend, but also the inspira-
tion for the name of one of Utah’s up-and-coming bands.
DAD BOD is a relatively new band, with their first self-titled
EP released in January 2019. The band consists of members
Michael Marinos, Marcus Marinos, Matthew Marinos and Ben Ostler and is based in Salt Lake City.
Their first album, “After Thought,” was released on Sept. 1. The
debut album is a blend of low-key rock and indie pop that might be perfect for your next study session.
“Foreign Lands,” the sixth song on the album, is one of the
best tracks and showcases the band’s ability to create great chill rock. The combination of wavy guitar sounds, falsetto vocals,
and some dreamy saxophone and guitar solos make this a rich, beautiful track to experience. ALBUM COVER FOR “After Thought”
DAD BOD also includes plenty of lo-fi instrumental tracks on
the album, which make this album perfect for your homework playlist.
The closing track and single, “Enough,” is another highlight
of the album. “Enough” still has the band’s signature indie rock sound but also features a driving funk feel. Hand drums and
drumset beats combined with the rhythms of the guitar make this a fun listen and track to dance to.
“After Thought” is a strong, fluid debut album for anyone inter-
ested in chill rock, indie or local music. It will be interesting to see how the band continues to experiment with their sound as they mature.
DAD BOD will be playing at The Cache Concert Series in Logan
on Nov. 8. More information can be found here. —alek.nelson@aggiemail.usu.edu @nelsonalek

An explosion of goals helps USU Thompkins’ breakout highlights women’s soccer win two straight receiving depth at USU By Jason Walker SENIOR SPORTS WRITER
Standing behind a podium, sophomore
wide receiver Deven Thompkins addressed the media holding his young daughter. A
wide smile split his young face for numerous reasons. Among those were the recent birth of another child (this time a son) but more recently, Utah State’s 62-7 obliteration of
Stony Brook and also Thompkins’ major role in such a lopsided win.
Thompkins finally got to fully showcase his
lightning 4.31 speed and quick feet on his
way to a career night. The young pass-catcher reeled in five passes on the night for a game-high 77 yards. He also had two
touchdowns which were the first and last of
the game — a 45-yard punt return and a 10yard catch from Henry Columbi.
Last week, Thompkins did not get as much
PHOTO COURTESY of USU Athletics Senior Imelda Williams (21) and Junior Kanyan Merrill (13) celebrate after Williams’ game-winning goal against Weber State on Wednesday Sept. 4. The Aggies have won two straight games. By Sydney Kidd SPORTS STAFF WRITER
The Utah State University women’s soccer team
scored seven goals over two straight wins this past
week, beating Weber State 2-1 and Marquette 5-1. It’s been a week to remember for the Aggies, and has featured more goals in a short period of time than has been seen in three years. Not since an
8-0 win over Sam Houston State in 2016 have the Aggies scored 5 or more goals in a win.
After overcoming another sluggish start, Utah
State came away with a 2-1 win against Weber State University on Wednesday.
It was no easy victory, as the final goal came after
the Aggies battled through the second period of extra time.
“To be able to win a game in overtime…there’s no
better thrill,” head coach Heather Cairns said. Junior defender Imelda Williams scored the
golden goal off a corner kick in the 13th minute of extra time. Williams’ header ended the match and finalized victory for the Aggies. Senior midfielder Ashley Cardozo had the assist on the goal.
Williams was not the only back to score and both
of Utah State’s goals came from its defenders.
Mealii Enos scored the first goal of the match in
the 68th minute of play. Much like the one netted by Williams, Enos’ goal was also a header, which came off a corner kick from Cardozo.
“We worked on corner kicks… this week, quite a
bit,” Cairns said. “And I think you saw that payoff.” The payoff was certainly big for Enos. “Scoring
a goal is the best” Enos said. “It just it makes the whole game — all the effort you put into it — worth it.”
There is no question the Aggies put in effort this
week. Fans saw a more aggressive team with more possession time than they did on Friday against
with eight total shots, five of which were on goal. By the end of the match the Aggies had 13 total
shots, with nine on goal. Weber State had 10 total shots, with eight on goal.
“Would we like to start harder? Yes,” Cairns said.
“But did we solve it in the end? Yeah… I think our team is really starting to show what they’re made of.”
Sunday afternoon the Aggies took on Wisconsin
based Marquette on the road and exploded for five
goals, all of which were scored by different players. “Today was just a fun, complete game, where we
worked hard to have everything come together,” Cairns said. “Our defense was ruthless and our
attack came alive with multiple players stepping up and making game-changing plays.”
Five players opened their scoring accounts in the
game, the first coming off the boot of freshman midfielder Sid Barlow. Cardozo doubled Utah
State’s lead only a few minutes later, but her contribution wouldn’t be done after the goal. She would supply the final pass on two additional goals over
the final 25 minutes of the game. Cardozo had an
outstanding week, assisting two more goals against Weber State for a total of four over the week. Her efforts were good enough to earn her the Amer-
ica First Credit Union USU student-athlete of the week.
In all, Utah State scored five including goals from
sophomore forward Marli Niederhauser, junior
midfielder Kami Warner and senior forward Alecia Robinson.

USU men’s basketball announces dates against USF and BYU By Dalton Renshaw SPORTS CONTENT MANAGER
Utah State University men’s basketball
added two new dates to its schedule, both
neutral-site games against non-conference
opponents. The first will be against BYU on
Dec 14 at 5 p.m. in the annual Beehive Classic held at Vivint Smart Home Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah. Weber State and the University of Utah are the two other schools participating
and they will face off at 1p.m. the same day.
The Aggies beat Weber State in a close contest
this past season and fell to Utah the year prior.
BYU finished with a 19-13 record this past season, including a resounding 95-80 win against USU early in the season. The Cougars return

Aggies have already topped 100 yards: Mariner (191), Thompkins (136), Repp (117) and Nathan (116).
“We’ve caught the ball extremely well and
made some plays and in this offense,” USU head coach Gary Andersen said.
Having a Davey O’Brien Award semifinalist
at quarterback certainly has not hindered
the breaking in of new receivers and hastening the development of guys stepping into larger roles. Andersen has certainly been
privy to just how much Love elevates the receiving corps.
“The biggest thing is we have Jordan Love
to make those plays,” Andersen said. “He is a special quarterback, he stays so steady in the moment, takes what’s there.”
Through two games, Love has completed 58
of 82 passes, a 70.7 success rate at finding
volume, but he
made the most of his two catches,
taking one of them 56 yards for his
first career colle-
giate touchdown. Being involved
early like he has
been is “amazing” to Thompkins.
“I feel like a little
kid again, hon-
estly,” Thompkins
said. “I’m actually able to display
my talent and just show everybody this is who I am
and this is what I love to do.”

has been spread around to the numerous receivers.
“They’re unselfish as a crew,” Andersen
said. “There’s nobody out there counting
catches. They’re just excited when their opportunity comes to make a play.”
Simply catching the ball though is not the
goal Andersen has in mind for his wideouts. He wants more from them and so far he has seen just that.
“I say it all the time, you can’t just be a
guy that catches the ball and falls down,” he said. “You have to catch the ball and
make something happen with it and we had numerous guys who were able to do that tonight.”

Houston, Texas to take on the University of
South Florida in the inaugural Battleground
2k19 tournament. It will be a three-game slate and the field includes Baylor, UTSA, Oregon
State and Tennessee Martin in addition to USU and USF. South Florida is coming off a solid
season, having captured the College Basketball Invitational title, and finishing the year with an overall record of 24-14.
Utah State will be confirming more dates
in the coming weeks as the regular season
approaches. Currently, the team has confirmed and scheduled three non-conference games against North Texas, LSU and Florida. @dren_sports

PHOTO BY AP Photo / Chris Carlson FILE - In this April 28, 2016, file photo, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, bottom second from left, greets supporters after a rally in Costa Mesa, Calif. State Republicans have approved a rule change intended to ensure the party can send delegates to the GOP’s national convention next summer, even if President Trump is kept off the state’s 2020 primary ballot. The measure is a response to a law signed by Democratic Gov. Newsom in July that requires presidential candidates to release their tax returns, a move clearly aimed at the Republican president.

It’s Time To Look the Horse-Race in the Mouth Is horse-race election coverage the bane of democracy? By Taelor Candiloro OPINION COLUMNIST
closer, it seems like a swarm of journalists appear ready to condemn the offenses
domestic media outlets will apparently
recycle from their coverage of the 2016
presidential race, while others bare their joy and excitement at the sound of the political starting pistol.
For all this diversity of opinion, horse-race
coverage on candidate’s likeability and gaffecapacity seem to steer political discussion,
whereas their policy proficiency and political literacy occupy a backseat. Bar graphs
and roundtable speculation may appear
glamorously informative or as a necessary use of journalistic access, but the oversaturation
of these practices diminishes the integrity of
news reporting and damages the democratic methods of election as a whole.

writer, Jack
Shafer, that without horse-race reporting,
“coverage would come to an endless series of policy white pages that nobody reads”

precisely why coverage so rarely denies the
drama of controversy and instead shuns the relevancy of policy proposals.
Regardless of who you believe should have
been sworn in January of 2017, the election coverage the year prior was substantive
in everything but substance. An analysis conducted by the Columbia Journalism
Review’s Duncan J. Watts and David M. Rothschild reveals that “only five out of
150 front-page articles that The New York
Times ran over the last, most critical months of the election, attempted to compare the
candidate’s policies, while only 10 described

Institutions that tout a commitment to

Having little but candidates’ most laughable
moments, controversial statements or
national likeability to decide who might
be most qualified to balance the gradation of holding a public office is absurd satire.
Democratic elections require an informed
public, and horse-race journalism only serves to perpetuate the idea that the details don’t

While Clay Huffman was
