May and Vantrease were convicted for their roles in the attack.

Diviney’s father, friend files suitBy Charles young

AssociAte city editor

Ken Diviney, the father of former West Virginia Univer-sity student Ryan Diviney, along with Brian McLhinney, a close friend of Ryan’s, have filed a civil suit in connection with the 2009 beating that left Ryan in a comatose state and McLhinney injured.

The lawsuit, filed in Mononga-lia County Circuit Court, names Austin Vantrease, Jonathan

May, Colin McKeefery, Brandon Groux, Tyler Husfelt and Alex-ander Woods as defendants. Ac-cording to the suit, other individ-uals could be named later.

Ryan and McLhinney were attacked at approximately 3:10 a.m. on Nov. 7, 2009, near the North Willey Street Dairy Mart in Morgantown. The alterca-tion resulted from an argument about the World Series, accord-ing to police reports.

May and Vantrease were convicted for their roles in the

attack. May was released after serving less than one year in prison at the North Central Re-gional Jail for battery and lives in Delaware, according to the lawsuit.

Vantrease is currently serv-ing a two to ten year sentence for felony malicious assault at North Central Regional Jail. His request to be transferred to a correctional facility or re-leased on parole was denied this summer.

After their convictions, both

May and Vantrease were or-dered to pay restitution to the Diviney family. According to Ken, neither attacker has made any attempt to do so.

“They haven’t shown any goodwill,” Diviney said. “They haven’t paid a cent of court-ordered restitution. They’ve made no efforts to help. Sadly, they show no remorse. These men have an obligation to my son and family.”

The video shows May punching Ryan when he was not looking, causing him to be-come unconscious and fall, hit-ting his head on a metal grate.

Within hours of Tuesday’s 5.9 earthquake, about 200 West Virginia University stu-dents signed up to receive emergency text alerts.

Officials plan to test the University emergency alert system today at 10 a.m. in hopes of increasing its 9,000 person registration list.

“The key to getting the alert to be as effective as possible is getting people to sign up,” said University Po-lice Chief Bob Roberts.

The system is activated to warn students via text mes-sage whenever their safety is at risk, whether that be due to a hostage situation, in-clement weather or some sort of man-made disaster.

“One of the big things we do is put out closures dur-ing the winter,” Roberts said. “But if we were to have a man-made disaster, like an explosion, we have messages already set up to be sent out.”

Texts will advise students to take the necessary pre-cautions depending on the situation, such as to evacu-ate or to move to designated shelters.

“We only use the system when it’s absolutely needed. We try not to overwhelm the

“Once the officer on the scene gets the sufficient in-formation to know what we have, that’s when the deci-sion is made as to whether or not we need to send a text alert.”

Corey Smith entertains audience at CACby elizabeth finley

a&e correspondent

Country recording art-ist Corey Smith performed a concert at the West Virginia University Creative Arts Cen-ter Saturday night.

P.J. Spaur, a WVU gradu-ate student, has been a fan of Smith for two years.

“It was definitely a good show,” Spaur said.

This was Spaur’s second time seeing Smith, the first time was when he performed last spring at the Mountain Stage located in Charleston, W.Va.

“(Smith) is an awesome up-and-coming artist who’s re-ally fighting for main stream,” Spaur said.

The audience reacted very positively to the performance.

Both the opener and main acts had people up and out of their seats, dancing and clapping along to the music.

Cody Mullens, a junior en-gineering student, was new to Smith’s music.

“This was my first time see-ing Corey Smith. I really en-joyed his music, and I think we’ll hear more of him in the mainstream soon,” Mullins said.

The opening act for Corey Smith was singer/song-writer

Canaan Smith, who first got his claim to fame on Amaz-ing Race.

Canaan is relatively new to the country scene, but the crowd enjoyed the vibe he brought and the anticipation he built for the main act.

“Everyone’s here to see Co-rey, but Canaan Smith was re-ally good, too,” Mullens said.

Canaan is from Nashville, TN and this was his first time performing in West Virginia. He will have his first single re-leased soon, titled “The End of Tonight.”

Corey has been singing and writing songs since 2003 when he released his first album, “Undertones.”

Since then Smith has re-leased six albums in total, his most recent in June of 2011, ti-tled “The Broken Record.”

Corey grew up in Jackson County, Ga., and was heavily influenced by music through-out his childhood.

Majoring in social stud-ies education, the only outlet Corey had with music before his career was performing for friends at parties and other outings, but their posi-tive feedback and influences drove him to the career he has today.

‘Pride’ performs pregame for Mingo Countyby elizabeth finley

a&e correspondent

The “Pride of West Virginia,” the Mountaineer march-ing band, traveled to Mingo County Friday evening to start the 2011 season.

The marching band per-formed for the season open-ing football game of the newly opened Mingo County High School.

The MCHS faculty mem-bers along with members of the community wanted the “Pride” to be the first to per-form on their new football field.

Friday morning, the band left on nine buses for five hours to Mingo County.

“They gave us a very warm welcome,” said Alex Martin, a sophomore business ma-jor. “When we entered the sta-dium, everyone was very ex-cited to see us.”

When the state outline of West Virginia was formed on the football field during the performance, members of the “Pride” who were from South-ern West Virginia stepped out of rank and waved at the crowd before falling back in line to finish the show with the West Virginia University fight song, “Hail West Virginia.”

Jeff Valentine, a junior clar-inet player, was amazed at Mingo County’s turnout.

“Every seat in the stadium was full,” Valentine said.

Valentine was also very im-pressed with the new school.

“It was really nice. Mingo County should be proud of their new facilities,” Valentine said.

The crowd broke out in the “Let’s go … Mountaineers!” chant when band performed.

“It was great knowing that we have support for our band in every part of the state,” said Emily Hersman, a sophomore art major.

The next performance scheduled for the band will be Sept. 4 when WVU plays Marshall.

The ‘Pride’ will be travel-ing throughout the state and the country during the foot-

ball season to perform at many away games along with several shows.

The traveling done this year has been made possible by do-nations to The “Pride” Travel Fund.

Donations to The Pride Travel Fund can be made at www.PrideTravelFund.com or over the phone at (304) 284-4000.

fairy tale play ‘into the Woods’ showcases David Selbyby chriStina gutierrez

a&e writer

Friday night marked the opening night of the Morgan-town Theatre Company’s per-formance of the Broadway hit “Into the Woods.”

The play has been a sensa-tion for a number of years. It is an original script including most of the fairy tales we have all grown familiar with, in-cluding “Cinderella,” “Rapun-zel,” “Jack and the Beanstalk,” and Little Red Riding Hood.

The twist in “Into the Woods” is that all of the char-

acters are intertwined and meet somewhere along their individual journeys while traveling into the woods.

The performance show-cased the talented student and alumni of the MTC, with a special appearance from Morgantown’s very own Da-vid Selby.

“Selby is probably the most famous person to come out of Morgantown,” said Johanna Stewart, MTC president.

The Morgantown native played a duel roles, acting as both the narrator and the all-knowing Mysterious Man.

His flare for acting shone through, but the real stars of the night were the incredible MTC students and graduates.

Frederica Dooley-Brown, who took on the role of Jack’s mother, spoke and sang as if she were born for the role.

Her talented performance was matched by almost every member of the cast.

Ry Garlow, who took on the role as the baker commit-ted himself to the part fully, according to his father, John Garlow, who was also a mem-ber of the cast.

“It’s weird to see the per-

sonality role change,” Garlow said. “Since he took on this role, he’s adopted the man-nerisms of his character.”

After the three-hour open-ing show Saturday night, it was clear these actors had worked hard to deliver an impressive performance.

Current member of the West Virginia House of Dele-gates, former mayor Charlene

Marshall expressed her enthu-siasm for the MTC.

“I’ve always enjoyed the children’s theater and try to make as many performances as possible,” Marshall said.

Filling her role as a support of the group, she’s adopted an almost parent-like relation-ship with the actors.

“I’ve seen them grow up, and it’s a joy to see,” she added.

This weekend’s production was nothing short of a success.

The MTC is a self-sustain-ing organization, located at the Metropolitan Theatre on High Street, and its members perform throughout the year.

For more information go online or visit the Metropoli-tan Box Office.

BORN TODAY You are in your ele-ment this year. Your creativity and cha-risma weave to produce many ideas. This same combo helps convince others of the positive nature of these concepts. Much effort surrounds the manifestation of a heartfelt goal. If you are attached, don’t forget that two people are in this arrange-ment. Be more attentive to your sweetie. If you are single, you could meet someone very special this year. This person could be a friend at first, or you might meet him or her through a friend. Another VIRGO doesn’t get you. You are unique.

ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) HHH Em-phasize the positive in a situation rather than the negative. You could be confused by someone’s effort. Be aware of the end results of merging with this party in a pro-fessional and financial matter. Trust your judgments. Tonight: A family member or roommate might be touchy.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) HHHHH Your creativity emerges in nearly every discussion or event right now. A new rela-tionship might be budding. A child could delight in your time and company. Stay focused, even if someone around you could be critical or feisty. Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) HHHH Stay close to home. You feel good there and become much more centered. Honor what is happening within. Take some time to center on your feelings and intuition. Your finances need to be watched, or your self-discipline could be called upon. To-

night: Happy at home.

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) HHHH Be sensitive to what others communicate to you. You might be delighted by what you hear from a new friend or loved one. Be willing to respond accordingly. Your words help many smile and feel much better. Trust yourself. Tonight: Buy a card or token of affection on the way home.

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) HHHH Make a point of stopping and thanking a key person in your life for his or her efforts. Indulge and schedule a meeting at a fa-vorite spot. Sometimes mixing work and pleasure lightens the moment. Use cau-tion expressing any dissatisfaction. To-night: Your treat.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) HHHHH Your sensitivity comes out when handling a child or a special person in your life. Your detachment encourages unusual under-standing and empathy. A friend could be slightly too assertive for your taste. Understanding evolves. Tonight: Let off some steam.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) HHH Even if a boss, parent or higher-up pushes you, slow down and focus on your long-term direction. Don’t allow frustration or an-ger to push you beyond your normal self-composure. Walk away from a volatile situation if need be. Tonight: Take some much-needed quiet time.

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) HHHHH You cannot push much harder, yet your drive nearly forces you to. Investigate dif-ferent perspectives; get more informa-tion. You will know what to do. A meeting

could be significant to your decision-mak-ing process. Tonight: Where the fun is.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) HHH Take a stand if need be. Be assertive when dealing with a professional or community matter. You could be overwhelmed by an authority figure. Note that this person cares very much, though you might not like his or her assertive style right now. Tonight: A must appearance.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) HHHHH Take an overview and come to a new un-derstanding. Detachment allows you to think about how it must feel to be the other person. Do lighten up and worry less about a current dilemma. A partner will come up with an unusual solution. Tonight: Dinner, but not alone!

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) HHHH A partner has a strong insight and the abil-ity to understand far more than you re-alize. Open up to new possibilities. Re-main open to sharing and bottoming-out a problem. You can choose whether to act on someone’s idea or feel angered by his or her suggestions. Tonight: It is your call.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) HHHHH Your innate creativity comes out when challenged. Nevertheless, others seem to run with the ball. You might wonder which is the best action. Listen to new ideas more openly. Laugh and relax with another person. Enjoy his or her company. Tonight: Accept an invitation.

Students must be prepared for emergenciesStudents at West Virginia

University must prepare them-selves for emergencies.

There are many ways to do so, such as keeping an emer-gency contact list or having a first-aid kit available when needed.

But the best way to prepare for any circumstance is to en-sure communications with others.

WVU makes it easy to stay in touch with the University and

the surrounding area by its text alert system, WVU Alerts.

The text alerts are aimed at informing students about any danger they may encounter while in the Morgantown area, whether it is bad weather or an earthquake.

It never hurts to be more prepared for an emergency. Text alerts can help users nav-igate through disaster areas or to inform them when it may be safe to enter.

While the earthquake that was felt last week didn’t bring any damage to the area, text alerts followed immediately.

They notified students of the occurrence and kept them informed on any safety haz-ard that may have occurred. Shortly after those messages went out, around 200 more students signed up for the text alert system.

It didn’t take long for stu-dents to realize the impact the

system can have during a time of crisis.

If the earthquake would have been severe and no mes-sages would have been sent out, there would have been a lot of students scared and con-fused. The messages let stu-dents know about the earth-quake and that they were safe.

There is no way to efficiently overcome a disaster without organization.

It takes everyone working

together and helping each other. If all students sign up for the text alert system, everyone would benefit.

There aren’t many students without phones, and all cell phones receive text messages. With the text alert system, the University can organize the entire student body on the blink of an eye.

It’s always better to know.

kotaku.comPhoto of Steve Jobs, the former CEO of Apple computers.

Steve Jobs is a brilliant man. He helped revolution-ize the personal computer in the 1970s, making it affordable and easy to use for the average consumer.

Since then, Apple Inc. has been at the forefront of con-sumer technology, pushing the industry in music play-ers, cell phones and Internet connectivity.

The iPod, iPhone, iPad and MacBook have all been at the front of Apple’s great success thanks to Jobs’ strong eye for detail.

Now that Jobs has stepped down from his position as CEO, losing this eye might pose a struggle for new inno-vations; however, the Apple name will stay strong.

Before the iPod first came out in 2001, people bopping around the streets were toting bulky Sony Walkmans and a backpacks filled with CDs.

The iPod was the first mu-sic player of its kind and com-pletely erased the need to carry around your whole music col-lection – because it can now fits in your pocket.

It also offered a 5 GB hard drive, which was 20 percent the size of the hard drives found in computers at the time.

The iPod also included a FireWire port that doubled as a hard drive, which could be used to download 1,000 songsn (and store presenta-tions, pictures and movies.)

Although the iPod was priced at $400 for 5 GB, its rev-olutionary technology and user-friendly capabilities were enough to send people to the store to pick one up.

Any other music player could not compete.

Even today the iPod still reigns, surpassing attempts from other companies’ inno-vations and emulations.

In 2009, Microsoft Corpo-ration launched the Zune HD, hoping the OLED touch scren display, HD radio and high-definition video output would be able to go head-to-head with the iPod.

Sadly it could not compete, and today, the Zune has virtu-ally died. Standstills in Zune technology and its passive categorization have slowed its popularity.

Since the release of the iPod, Apple has introduced the Nano, Shuffle and Touch. Apple has also increased hard drive space, a better touch screen, an FM tuner, a camera and a variety of applications. They also come in a variety of different colors.

Although there have not been many major innova-tions to the iPod,Nano, Shuf-fle, Touch, they are still quality

products and lead the industry.Furthermore, churns out

better computers and soft-ware than any other manu-facturer, all while under Jobs’ leadership.

In 2004, Apple introduced the MacBook Pro, replacing the PowerBook G4.

It was the first Apple note-book to run on an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, allowing it to run four times faster than its predecessor.

Apple released the Mac-Book Air in 2008, which it boasts a 13-inch display and full keyboard with a width of .76 inches.

Performance was not sacri-ficed in the design of the Mac-Book Air. It also has battery life up to five hours and offers the same quality as any other Mac but is more portable.

The most recent gener-ation of MacBook Air lap-tops are twice as fast, weigh just three pounds, have up to seven hours of battery life and include the new Mac OS X Lion software.

The new innovations of Sony and Dell seem to be exactly like their earlier models, only with one more hour of battery power and an improved In-tel Core processor, which still

runs like a T. rex in a world of Velociraptors.

Apple still continues to up-date its software and prod-ucts and always outdoes its competitors.

An upgraded version of the OS X operating software used by all Apple laptops and desk-tops was released in early July.

The OS X Lion software in-cludes Resume, Auto Save, Version and Auto Drop. All of these make sharing and sav-ing documents more conve-nient and lessens the need for a flash drive.

Steve Jobs built the com-pany from the bottom up,

marketing it on quality and user-friendliness.

Before the release of the most recent iPhone, Jobs put in extra hours making the Google logo appear just right.

This attention to minute de-tail helped produce superior merchandise Apple is known and loved for.

With Jobs stepping down as CEO, who knows what the company will become.

Whether or not the products of Apple will still remain the best in quality and a staple of user-friendliness is something consumers should be worried about.

Jobs steps down as Apple CEO: Consumers left to worry

“You want to offer free food and water to the needy? Thanks, but we’ll have to get back to you on that,” so said a Federal Emergency Manage-ment Agency representative.

There were a lot of things you could take away from Hurricane Katrina. Maybe you gathered that, “George Bush doesn’t care about black people,” as rapper Kanye West infamously proclaimed.

Possibly you gathered that the government is indeed a valuable service to the truly needy.

What you should have gath-ered was the government’s attempts to take care of you work counterproductively.

FEMA has consistently done more harm than good for the disaster-stricken peo-ple they claim to help.

Moreover, FEMA and its failures are a remarkably suc-cinct allegory on exactly why socialism fails.

In the allegory, FEMA is the government, the disaster victims are the poor, and the means of production are di-saster relief.

The government has no faith in the private sector to provide for the poor so the government declares it shall provide for them.

However, the government does not have the information necessary to do so in order to assess the situation, the gov-ernment shuts out all com-petitors, thus taking over the means of production itself.

In the intermediate phase, while the government is as-sessing the situation, the

problem progresses and many more people suffer from star-vation, illness, injuries and thirst.

The government cannot fathom the thought of the greedy capitalists taking ad-vantage of people in desper-ate need of their services. Al-lowing the altruistic ones to help might hinder their ability to assess the situation.

So, a little time has passed and the government is now distributing its resources to the desperate but finds it can-not calculate exactly what is needed and how much.

While in some areas they find themselves having too much of a resource, in many others they do not have enough.

Therein lies the essential problem of a socialist econ-omy and of FEMA’s efforts. They simply cannot and will not ever be able to properly

allocate resources the way a market economy does.

The federal government may have built a surplus of about 4,000 trucks worth of ice during the Katrina cri-sis, but people were starving, thirsty and in serious need of medical attention. FEMA would simply not allow out-side aid, although it was of-fered by many.

Some might contend my position is “unethical” or “inhumane” without under-standing how egregious the behavior of federal govern-ment was during the crisis.

Preventing aid from thou-sands of people and busi-nesses willing to help any way they could, FEMA’s and the National Guard’s attempts at damage control were beyond inhumane.

The (Carrier “Prison”) was a hotbed of agony, much like the starving people of a so-

cialist nation.Furthermore, in the ab-

sence of FEMA, the many people who would have oth-erwise given their time, money and resources to those in need would have been able to do so.

The bureaucracy that is FEMA wouldn’t have slowed the recovery in its inefficient and costly scrawl, and the suf-fering would have been con-siderably less.

Additionally, allowing the market to operate would have been of beneficial. Looking at price gouging in a time of cri-sis as being immoral is look-ing at it the wrong way.

Prices tell entrepreneurs where resources are needed in an economy and where they are not needed. This is one reason why a socialist country has problems allocat-ing resources properly.

So, those who are will-

ing and able to pay for these highly priced goods in a time of crisis would receive the benefits first.

However, that leaves more resources for the needy by those altruistic people who come to the aid of disaster victims.

In times of crisis, it is some-times easy to get involved in the common thinking that the government must intervene and come to the assistance of those in need.

However, programs like FEMA have proven on more than one occasion that this is not the answer.

What is really needed is the allowance of people operat-ing freely to come assist in the aid of disaster victims and for the government to get out of the way.

When a bureaucracy takes hold of peoples lives, there is no room for progress.

FEMA is not the golden answer during times of crisis

West Virginia University’s Welcome Week concluded Fri-day with Traditions Day in the Mountainlair.

The day, which featured in-formational booths and repre-sentatives from student orga-nizations around campus, was intended to teach freshmen and other new students the importance of WVU traditions.

“We wanted students to feel, and be a part of, the pride that comes with being a Mountain-eer,” said Trish Cendana, direc-tor of Residential Education.

Cendana said some of WVU’s most cherished tradi-tions include wearing gold and blue, singing the alma mater, participating in the first-down cheer during football games and the Mountaineer mascot.

Brock Burwell, WVU’s cur-rent Mountaineer, was on hand to show students the WVU tra-ditions in action.

Booths set up at the event included Mountaineer Mani-acs, the Alumni Association, the WVU dance team, class

ring sales, WVUp All Night and Mountaineer Week.

Mountaineer Week, held in the Mountainlair from Oct. 28 to Nov. 6, is a student favorite second only to FallFest, Cen-dena said.

The event, which began in 1947, is a weekend event meant to boost and encourage school spirit. Students partic-ipate in traditional challenges such as the PRT cram, the Mr. & Ms. Mountaineer contest, the Mountaineer Idol competition and the beginning of the Moun-taineer beard-growing contest.

“Traditions are a part of our culture here at WVU. They have been here for a long time,” said Sonja Wilson, senior program-ming administrator for the Mountainlair.

Wilson said Traditions Day allows students to embrace the idea of what it means to be a Mountaineer.

“When you think of tradi-tions, you want to remind stu-dents that WVU has them and encourage students to partici-pate,” she said.

Offensive linemen are the guys who don’t get much rec-ognition after the game, but they probably have the tough-est job on the field.

For a high-flying, fast-paced offense like West Virginia has this season, the team needs to have a solid offensive line that can keep its quarterback pro-tected from the pass rush of an opposing defense.

WVU quarterback Geno Smith will not match the suc-cess of previous quarterbacks coached elsewhere by WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen if the offensive line is not able to effectively give him enough time to get the ball out of his hands and into the arms of the team’s talented playmakers.

At Oklahoma State last year, the offensive line only gave up 10 sacks on the season. The re-sult: First-year starting quar-terback Brandon Weeden earned first team all-Big 12, throwing for 4,277 yards and 34 touchdowns.

In 2008 and 2009, the offen-sive line at Houston under Hol-gorsen gave up 27 and 18 sacks, respectively. Houston quarter-back Case Keenum combined for over 10,600 yards passing and threw 88 touchdowns in those two seasons.

These are incredible num-bers at the college level.

Much of the success of an of-fense is due to offensive lines allowing the quarterback, whoever it may be, to get rid of the football. This cannot be said enough. The elite college teams in the country all have stout linemen who block for the quarterback on a consis-tent basis.

WVU’s linemen are expe-rienced and effective every-where except for the right tackle position.

Currently, redshirt soph-omore Pat Eger is first on the depth chart. He is ahead of red-shirt freshman Quinton Spain, but the two have been battling for the starting job all summer.

Both of these guys are over 300 pounds and will look to im-prove every game as the season goes on, no matter who starts or backs up.

Luckily, since Geno Smith is right-handed and can typically see someone rushing from his right side, the right tackle spot is not the most important part of the offensive line. That does not undermine the fact that the position is still a big piece of the puzzle, and those two guys will need to be at their best in order to keep the line stable.

Matt sunday/the daily athenaeuMSenior cornerback Keith Tandy led the Big East Conference with six interceptions last season.

WVU will replace three starters in secondary from last season

By michael carvellisports editor

Former West Virginia de-fensive backs Brandon Ho-gan, Robert Sands and Sidney Glover started a combined 96 games in their careers at WVU.

That’s the type of experience the Mountaineers will have to replace in the secondary this year.

But it’s not like the replace-ments will be freshmen. In fact, many of them played big roles for the Mountaineers last season; they just didn’t get to start because of all the experi-ence they had in the defensive backfield.

“It’s not like we have people that have never been here,” said junior safety Terence Garvin, who is one of two returning starters in the secondary. “Ev-erybody just really has to step up. We’ve got people who can do it. We just all got to really prove ourselves.”

And even though there will be some new faces in the sec-ondary, the goal will remain the same its always been.

“It’s important to understand what you’re doing and com-municating so we’re all on the same level,” said redshirt senior safety Eain Smith. “If we’re not,

it could mean a touchdown.“And we don’t like to give up

touchdowns.”Senior cornerback Keith

Tandy is the other return-ing starter and did a nice job of proving himself last season with a successful junior year.

Tandy was named first team all-Big East Conference and led the league with six interceptions.

Head coach Dana Holgorsen has raved about the improve-ments Tandy has made since fall camp began, and accord-ing to cornerbacks coach Da-vid Lockwood, his hard work is the key.

“It never ceases to amaze me,” Lockwood said. “I made it a point and told the rest of the guys it’s no wonder why he’s having success. He’s one of the guys who’s out there trying to get better.

“He’s in a situation where he’s not worried about getting tired. He’s focusing on his tech-nique and making plays.”

The battle for the other start-ing position at corner left va-cant by the departure of Ho-gan is one that has been up for grabs, but over the last few weeks junior Pat Miller has started to separate himself from the rest of the pack.

When Hogan missed games against Maryland due to sus-pension and the Champs Sports Bowl against North Car-olina State after tearing his ACL, it was Miller who stepped into the lineup in his place.

Lockwood said he’s seen the Birmingham, Ala., native im-prove not just with his play on the field, but in his maturity as well.

“I’ve been pleased with Pat thus far. He’s starting to show

that he can be an every-down corner,” Lockwood said. “He’s still got a ways to go, but I think he’s done a heck of a job.

When pointing out an ex-ample of how Miller has im-proved from last year, Lock-wood looked at a time in practice when redshirt sopho-more Stedman Bailey beat the junior corner and made an im-pressive catch.

“He comes back the next play, his knees are bent, and he

executes his technique,” Lock-wood said. “In the past it was one of those deals where he doesn’t make a play, he comes back and kind of just goes through the motions. He’s start-ing to mature.”

After Miller, West Virginia will have two solid backup cor-nerbacks in redshirt sopho-more Brodrick Jenkins and redshirt senior Brantwon

Smith back from injury, ready for season MEN’S SOCCER

no. 17 mountaineers upset no. 11 virginia

By derek dennenysports writer

Junior defender Eric Schoenle’s diving header in the final minute of the first half carried No. 17 West Vir-ginia to an upset victory over No. 11 Virginia in its regular season opener Friday.

Junior midfielder Shadow Sebele deftly placed a cor-ner kick close to the far post as Schoenle found a gap in the Cavilier’s defense and headed the ball past Virginia keeper Spencer LaCivita.

Junior keeper Pat Eaven-son picked up his first career shutout as the Mountaineer defense was able to hold UVA to just three shots all game – all of which came in the sec-ond half.

West Virginia had 11 shots, five on goal, in a well-bal-anced offensive attack.

Sebele had four shots, while eight other Mountain-eers combined for the re-maining shots.

WVU had two solid oppor-tunities to score coming in the eighth and 88th minute.

In the eighth minute, senior Uzi Tayou defelected a Travis Pittman free kick just wide of the goal, while senior Nick

Claudio’s shot on a breakaway in the final minutes was con-trolled by LaCivita.

The Cavs blew a chance to tie the game in the 66th min-ute, but Eric Bird’s header on a corner kick rattled off the post before WVU was able to clear the ball out of its zone.

The Mountaineers were supposed to face off with No. 4 Maryland, but due to poor weather conditions stem-ming from Hurricane Irene, the match was postponed un-til today at 7:00 p.m.

When the West Virginia de-fense was on the field during spring practice, senior safety Eain Smith was always in the same place.

For just about every play, Smith, who was sidelined the entire spring after undergoing shoulder surgery, stood about 40 yards behind the rest of the defense observing.

“Watching it from the side-lines, you can kind of sit back and see everything,” Smith said. “It’s kind of like watching film, actually. You can see the mannerisms of each receiver. You can see which routes the quarterback likes to go to or what routes they like to run.

“It was a big help.”The Miramar, Fla., native

is penciled in as the starter at free safety for this season and will be looked at as the re-placement for Robert Sands, who is now playing for the Cin-cinnati Bengals.

But he understands that in order to be successful at the position in this defense, he doesn’t have to do the same things Sands was able to do.

“I’m not Robert, I’m my own player,” Smith said. “I just have to focus on what I can do and my strengths and focus on im-proving my weaknesses.”

Unlike a lot of other first-time starters, however, Smith

already has had a lot of expe-rience playing with the Moun-taineer defense.

Smith has played in at least 12 games every year since he’s been at WVU and started four as a redshirt freshman.

He has recorded 79 tackles in his career and intercepted the first pass of his Mountain-eer career last season against LSU.

Last year, Smith was primar-ily used in the team’s SWAT formation on third downs, which meant he was playing much more aggressively and

blitzing more than he will as an every-down starter in 2011.

“The new tempo of the of-fense helped and I’ve been out of football for a minute,” Smith said. “I’m just trying to get back into the rhythm of things, knocking off the dust. I’m do-ing pretty good so far with it.”

The fact that Smith has as much experience as he does, even though he hasn’t started much, is something that the coaching staff believes can pay dividends down the road after the Mountaineers lost as many key members of its de-

fense from a year ago.“Any time you get experi-

ence, that’s the best teacher and I think it’s the biggest thing in college football be-cause guys come and go ev-ery year,” said safeties coach Steve Dunlap. “If you can get a few guys every year that know what’s going on at key positions like (Smith) at free safety, that’s a big benefit to the defense.”

In 2010, West Virginia’s de-fense was ranked in or near the top five of every statisti-cal category. Some might call following up a unit like that a pressure-filled situation, but Smith doesn’t think there’s a lot of pressure on the defense this season.

“I wouldn’t say there’s a lot of pressure, but we hold high expectations for ourselves,” Smith said. “We’ve got a lot of guys back here that can make plays. We’ll be OK.”

The easiest adjustment for Smith up to this point in camp has been stepping up and be-coming a leader, which is something he expected to have to do as a senior and one of the few returning players who has a lot of in-game experience.

“I lead by example,” he said. “When the young players see me working hard, they’ll start working hard and doing some of the things I’m doing.”

O-line key to WVU offense’s success in 2011

Page 8: The DA 08-29-2011

THE DAILY ATHENAEUM Monday August 29, 20118 | SPORTS

Players like redshirt senior Don Barclay and redshirt ju-niors Jeff Braun and Joe Mad-sen will play an important role in guiding the younger line-men and making sure the line has good chemistry.

If the linemen are not on the same page, the offense will not work. It’s as simple as that. Geno Smith will have his back on the ground, and chances are someone they shouldn’t lose to will upset the Mountaineers.

I’m not saying it’s going to happen, but it sure could if the offensive line is not where it should be.

In fact, there’s really no rea-son, except for unexpected in-juries, that the offensive line should not have success and

be able to paint the path for the rest of the offense to thrive un-der Holgorsen’s system.

Barclay, Madsen and Braun have all been in the gold and blue for at least three years now and know what they have to do and how they have to do it.

For Eger and Spain, it may take some time before the first few games to get a good feel for themselves, and they may have some mental issues early on. But it seems from seeing them in practice, they are big and strong enough to com-pete with the defensive line-men in the Big East and even the mighty defense LSU brings from the SEC.

We’ll see if the O-line can handle the heat starting Sept. 4 against defensive lineman Vinny Curry and Marshall.

Bowser, who both played in all 13 games last season.

At safety, the Mountaineers also return one starter who had a breakout campaign last sea-son in Garvin.

As a sophomore, Garvin was the lone first-year starter in the secondary but finished the year with a team-best 76 tack-les, one sack, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries.

At other safety positions, Smith is expected to take Sands’ spot at free safety.

He missed spring practice after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery, but played in 12 games during 2010.

“He’s got a lot of experi-ence; he’s played a lot of foot-ball,” said safeties coach Steve Dunlap. “He was on our third down team last year, and he’s been an off-and-on starter for the last two, so I feel that he should be ready to go.”

The boundary safety will be played by redshirt sophomore Darwin Cook, who appeared

in all 13 games last year and finished with nine tackles and a fumble recovery.

Like the other two defen-sive backs expected to take on starting roles this season, Cook has looked to the return-ing starters for some help with what they will need to do in or-der to be successful.

“Me and Cook live together so we talk about it all the time,” Garvin said. “He’ll be like, ‘What’d you do this time last year?’ and stuff like that, and you can just tell he really wants to be good.”

Also at safety, the Moun-taineers have sophomore Mi-chael Dorsey. Dorsey made a name for himself last season as one of the hardest hitters on the team even though he was a freshman.

Sophomore Travis Bell played in all 13 games last year as a true freshman, and junior Matt Moro will be playing in his first season with the Moun-taineers after transferring from El Camino College in Torrance, Calif.

The Penn State Invitational came to an end on Sunday, and the West Virginia wom-en’s soccer team finished the weekend 1-1.

A slow start Friday night against Penn State led to a 5-0 victory for the Nittany Lions over the No. 17 Mountaineers.

Penn State led 3-0 before the eighth minute and never looked back on their way to the upset.

“Penn State just put a lot of pressure on us,” said West Vir-ginia head coach Nikki Izzo-Brown. “We weren’t able to adjust to it, and we just made a couple mental errors.”

Facing a deficit that early in a game is something a coach never wants to experience, but Izzo-Brown thinks there are ways to take positives from tough outings like the one her team had Friday.

“You just try to go one pass at a time and one goal at a time,” she said. “If you’re not going to win on the score-board, you better win your pride back.

“You never want to get beat that badly without putting up a fight,” Izzo-Brown said.

The team didn’t have

much time to reflect on the loss to Penn State. West Vir-ginia faced George Mason at noon Sunday, and the team rebounded with a 3-0 victory over the Patriots.

The Mountaineers scored all three goals in the first half, and they all came from team members who had yet to tally a goal this season.

Sophomore forward Fran-ces Silva, a member of last season’s Big East Conference all-freshman team, gave West Virgnia a 2-0 lead in the 34th minute.

Silva performed well in each of the Mountaineers’ first two games but had yet to put one in the back of the net.

“Frances (Silva) has been knocking on the door,” Izzo-Brown said. “She has been frustrated, so it was really im-portant for her to finish today.”

Izzo-Brown was particu-larly impressed with the re-sponse from her goalkeeper Sara Keane.

After giving up five goals to Penn State on Friday night, the redshirt freshman posted her second shutout of the season against George Mason.

“She definitely responded well,” Izzo-Brown said. “She came out with confidence, and that’s what she needed.”

The team will need a re-sponse of their own this week, as it will face No. 7 Ohio State at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium Sept. 1.

“They’re a final four team that beat us last year,” Izzo-Brown said. “They’re definitely a team that’s going to battle, so it is going to be a very impor-tant game for us.”

The game has been tabbed as dollar night and will be the first “Gold Rush” of the season. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

patrick gorrell/the daily athenaeuMThe West Virginia volleyball team won two of its five games in the WVU Volleyball Mountaineer Invitational this weekend.

By SeBouh majariansports writer

The first weekend of the season didn’t go the way the West Virginia volleyball team planned it would, as WVU left the Mountaineer Invitational with a 2-3 record.

The Mountaineers beat New Hampshire and Robert Morris, while falling to Valparaiso, No. 21 Ohio State and Towson.

“We have a lot of room for growth and improvement and I’m OK with saying that this early in the season because it wouldn’t be good if I couldn’t say that,” said West Virginia head coach Jill Kramer.

The Mountaineers kicked off the weekend by earning the program’s 600th win as they swept UNH 3-0 (26-24, 25-12, and 27-25).

West Virginia got off to a sluggish start in the second game of the first day against Valparaiso (3-1), trailing 7-16 before dropping the first set 15-25.

WVU would recover over the next two sets, winning 25-21 and 25-19 before more un-forced errors came back to bite them.

Freshman Halle Kearney fu-eled the Mountaineers against the Crusaders as she finished the match with 22 kills. The Cleveland, OH, native left her mark on the tournament as she totaled 52 kills and drew praise from Kramer.

“She’s doing a lot of good stuff and she was huge for us tonight and I think she’s go-ing to be big for us all year and she has a lot of work to do but I know she’ll put in the work to

be her best.” Kramer said. On the second day of the

tournament, the Mountain-eers faced off against No. 21 Ohio State (4-0). WVU wasn’t intimidated by the Buckeyes as they gave them all they could handle in a deceiving 3-0 loss.

The Mountaineers would lose the sets 20-25, 16-25, 20-25 in front of 500 fans on Dol-lar Night.

In the final set, WVU rallied back from an 12-18 deficit to cut the lead to one but the Buckeyes were too much, fin-ishing the set with a 20-25 win.

Kramer believes things will only go up from here.

“They want to get better, they’re really driven,” she said. “They focus their energy in the right places because they want to do so well.”

WVU lost to Towson (2-1) three sets to one (22-25, 25-12, 23-25, 20-25) in the first of two games on Sunday.

In the night match, the Mountaineers took out their frustrations on Robert Mor-ris 3-1 (27-25, 25-13, 21-25, 25-14).

Kramer would like to see her team become more organized and improve its communica-tion, as she believed the Moun-taineers had too many errors.

“We’re a much better de-fensive team then what we showed,” Kramer said. “We have to keep getting after it ev-ery day and keep working to-wards our goal.”

Michelle Kopecky’s kill tied the score at 23 in a pivotal third set, but Towson got a kill from I’ishah Keliikoa and ended the set with an error by Kopecky.

Towson started the fourth set scoring three unanswered points causing Kramer to call timeout. When play resumed, the Tigers’ surge continued as they outscored WVU 7-1, forc-ing Kramer to use her final timeout for the set.

Post was named to the all-tournament team as she re-corded four double-doubles, while accumulating 159 assists and 57 digs.

Russo, who played outside hitter last season, has made the adjustment to libero look easy.

She totaled 102 digs, in-cluding a 30 dig performance against Robert Morris.

“When you’re a team that’s really defensive-oriented your libero is running the show,” Kramer said. “She’s our defen-sive leader and she held steady and I’m proud of her.”
