Simeon Wright was among the last people to see Emmett Till alive.

Wright will be on campus this Wednesday to discuss the events of the night Till was abducted.

Wright had been sleeping in the same bed with Till when he was taken away.

Till’s body was pulled from a nearby river shortly afterward.

Till’s mother chose to display her son’s disfigured body in an open coffin.

This, along with the two white men responsible for Till’s murder being quickly acquitted, created outrage across America.

Till’s murder was an important moment in American history.

Will Norton, dean of the Meek School of Journalism and New Media called it “the spark that lit the civil rights move-ment.”

Curtis Wilkie, Overby Center fellow, added to Norton’s com-ments.

“The murder was an early incident that mobilized people

across this country to enlist in the civil rights movement,” Wilkie said.

Many students said that they recognized the importance of Wright’s visit.

“I think it’s really important for us to listen to Mr. Wright because he was a firsthand wit-ness to a moment that shaped American history,” Jess Walt-man, a sophomore from Quit-man, said. Wright, Till’s cousin, has written a book concerning the 1955 murder.

In the book, called “Simeon’s Story,” Wright offers his own narrative of the night his cousin was taken.

“In my half-conscious state, I had no idea what was going on. Was I dreaming? Or was it a nightmare? Why were these white men in our bedroom at this hour,” Wright wrote. “I rubbed my eyes and then shield-ed them, trying to see beyond the glare of the flashlight. The balding man ordered me to go back to sleep. Dad had to shake Bobo (Till’s nickname) for quite a while to wake him up…”

Joining Wright will be Dub

Shoemaker and Bill Rose. Shoemaker is a veteran Mis-

sissippi journalist who covered the trial for the Jackson Daily News (later assimilated into The Clarion-Ledger).

Rose grew up in the same period in the Mississippi Delta and currently teaches journal-ism at Ole Miss. Norton and Wilkie said that the lecture will provide a unique opportunity for students and the community as a whole.

“I certainly think that any student with interest in history or the state of Mississippi or in the concept of racial reconcili-ation in the South would find the program rewarding,” Wilkie said. “We believe Mr. Wright is a significant guest with a special message, and we hope there will be a good turnout.”

Wright will speak October 13 at 11 a.m. in the Overby Center Auditorium.

Later that day, he will attend a book signing for his book “Simeon’s Story: An Eyewitness Account of the Kidnapping of Emmett Till” at 5 p.m. at Off-Square Books.

Cousin of Emmett Till to speak at Overby Center

To inform voters on the coun-ty judges, the Oxford TEA Party is hosting a judges’ fo-rum, featuring all nine judges who are seeking election Nov. 2, at 7 p.m. tonight at the Ox-ford Convention Center.Oxford TEA Party Chairper-

son Kay Cobb, a former Mis-sissippi Supreme Court Jus-tice, said she felt judges’ races are often the most difficult for voters because of the lack of opportunity to get to know the judges.“Making a decision based on

personal knowledge is much better than voting for the first name on the ballot,” Cobb said. “Unless you are a law-yer who has been in a judge’s court, you typically don’t know much about him or her. This forum will put a face with a name, and you will get to know where the candidate stands on matters pertinent to the courtroom.”Cobb said the moderator,

TEA Party to host judges’ forum BY CAIN MADDENThe Daily Mississippian

On July 1, the state of Mis-sissippi joined 14 other states and the District of Colombia in requiring motorists to keep at least three feet between bi-cycles when passing cyclists on the road.“The law is no more than what

should be common courtesy,” Oxford Police Chief Mike Mar-tin said. “Motorists and bicy-clists share the road and should respect each other.”According to Senate Bill No.

3014, the act also forbids ha-rassment of cyclists as well as throwing objects at the riders. An infraction of this section of the act will result in a fine of $100 for the first offense, $500 for the second offense and $2,500 for the third offense, as well as imprisonment for seven days in the county jail.

But for some cyclists, such as Andy Billmeyer, senior jour-nalism major at the Univer-sity of Mississippi from Cape Girardeau, the fines are not enough.“The violation fine for the first

offense should be much more severe,” he said. “The act will have a small impact until some-one gets hurt again or there’s a fight between a cyclist and a motorist.”Billmeyer is a trip leader and

bike mechanic for Ole Miss Outdoors, and rides his bike to class every day. He said he has almost been hit multiple times.“I have ridden out on coun-

try roads where there are farm-ers who are nice and wave, but you also have people who fly by with their rearview mirror a foot from your head on purpose. It’s ridiculous.”

Letters to the EditorFirst, I should state that I am a proud mem-

ber of the University of Mississippi Marching Band, but I do not represent its views. I am speaking on my own behalf as a student who was personally hurt by the views expressed by Jacob Fuller in his article from the Friday edi-tion of the Daily Mississippian.

I am distressed that Mr. Fuller feels this way about the Pride of the South. But I believe that his opinion is based solely on ignorance of the effort, talent, and sacrifice it takes to be a mem-ber of this fine tradition. I would love to wel-come Mr. Fuller to spend his game days with us in the Grove, the stands, and on the field. I am positive that spending 7-8 hours in a polyester suit, carrying a sousaphone upon his shoulders, with a plastic bucket as a hat, while watching his friends and family comfortably enjoying the football atmosphere would surely change his views. All this, of course, would come after he came to the University two weeks early in order to learn the sets and music under the lovely Mis-sissippi summer sun.

Mr. Fuller, you call to mind the University of Oregon in your article. I agree with you, it is one of the most difficult places for opposing

teams to play; however, it is not because of the band. While they have a very strong marching band, the reason opposing teams find it diffi-cult to perform is because the fans stay the en-tire time. The Oregon fans also support their band, staying in the stands during halftime and applauding their efforts. Perhaps if the Ole Miss faithful were faithful to the band (and even the team) instead of bolting to the bathrooms, con-cessions, and the Grove, their talents could also be appreciated. Maybe someday the University of Mississippi will be a difficult place to play. It would require a significant change in culture that I fear many like Mr. Fuller would be hesi-tant to facilitate.

I am deeply sorry you do not enjoy the music we play. I would suggest that if you would like specific songs to be played, you should make a donation to the Pride of the South. That would be greatly appreciated, I assure you. Many of us perform for absolutely nothing at all. This is a volunteer organization in which the members sacrifice their time and energy performing for the sheer love of performing. I can promise you, we really like it when our work ethic is called into question.

So thank you, Mr. Fuller. I am happy you were able to convey to us your opinions, how-ever misguided they were. If I could request something of you, it would be that you ap-proach us in person. Please, drop by rehearsal some time. We will be on that practice field, rain or shine, every day.

James BuchananSenior, International Studies/French

Jacob Fuller,You were correct in saying “there is far more

to [band] than musical talent.” But that seems to be the only informed thought in your arti-cle. How about checking out the band during the two-hour practices every weekday after class-es? How about learning new sets shortly after finishing an entire show? HOW ABOUT play-ing an instrument while marching to multiple assigned spots on a field while keeping temp and being aware of your surroundings. How about learning choreography and twirling a flag to add visual aesthetics to a show? You could EVEN TRY leaving the comfort of your parents’ home weeks before the semester starts in order to pre-

The Study of Nails by Chris Le & Steve Le

9:30 am - 7:00 pmMonday - Saturday

I regard downtown Oxford as Little Wonderland.There, our studying habits

are put to rest and we become junkies caught in the ecstasy of hypnotic beats and color-ful, bouncing lights. Smokers converse in shadows of the al-leyways with Mr. Caterpillar, unaware of their choking black halos.Herds of people parade in the

street as we congregate at our courthouses and constantly get called on the witness stand for committing the crime of over-loading the brain with infor-mation. Once declared guilty, the Mad Hatters start pouring

liquid fire by the dozens and off we go to become crazier than the Cheshire Cat on acid. I love the Square and how it

gives Oxford its own unique touch. Yet, it’s when I came back to my dorm and heard someone groan “I hate being this girl” while kneeling by a toilet that I started to worry. I am aware that alcohol makes

a person’s thoughts stumble on itself. Thus, the random combi-nation of words that come out should pose little value. Yet, my heart still twisted at the state-ment when I remember a fact that a friend once told me.When you are drunk, some-

times the truth trickles out. The thing that perplexes me

is that if she did not like the

state was in, why did she keep free-falling into the rabbit hole again and again? Just because the bottle has an attractive way of saying “drink me” does not mean you have to accept.The response I usually get is

that it is the main venue for fun. I don’t know about you, but

college life has always been il-lustrated to me as one of the most enjoyable times in life. I’m sure I don’t want to spend it frolicking in a black void in my mind.For, in the words of Alice,

“What is a use of a book with-out pictures or conversations?” My family tree of best friends

has taught me that the most valuable things in life, such as

love and happiness, are actually very simple and easy to attain. I do not have the taste for alco-hol because their laughter and smiles are more intoxicating than any vodka.Memories with them allow me

to bask in the beauty of life and figure out the valuable parts of me. We can have a party with strobe lights, music, coke, and pizza and have an awesome time being random. No alcohol required. Now, drinking is a good social

thing to do. Yet, if you abso-

lutely believe that you need it to have fun, then you have a problem. I’m not writing this to judge

anyone fitting this criterion. I would be a hypocrite if I did because I was once an Alice, too. Yet, notice that there isn’t a sequel to this wonderful story. That’s because Alice did not like where she was, she woke up, and never went back to Wonderland. Maybe we need to take that

same route to claim our true happiness.

A truly disgusted reader, Misty WhiteJunior, Art

I just wanted to voice my discontent with the re-cently published article regarding the band. It was written in ignorance of what it takes to perform in a marching band, and I also take offense that some-one would be allowed to publically mock such a fine program. I wonder if I wrote an article that talked about how terrible the history teachers are, would that be published? What about an article that blames Coach Nutt for poor education funding at MS in-stitutions? No they wouldn’t, because they make no sense. Henceforth, I am boycotting the DM as well as starting a group on Facebook to recruit supporters until some sort of apology is issued. I enjoy reading your paper, but I cannot allow such belittling state-ments to go unnoticed.

Thomas ChandlerSeniorHistory, Religious Studies

Jacob Fuller: From your comments, I must assume your experi-

ence and knowledge of marching bands is minimal. Let me educate you.

1. From the student section, it is acoustically im-possible for the band to sound loud or clear.

The sound can only be focused in one direction, usually towards the sidelines where the majority of people sit.

The band played from the field towards the student section during one halftime show last year and, sur-prisingly, it was mostly empty.

2. The guard exists for visual effect. Whether or not it’s distracting is up to your atten-

tion span. 3. Let me again emphasize that I do not know the

extent of your musical education, but it appears to be marginal if existent.

Preparing and performing music takes a GREAT deal of talent and work, as does preparing any kind of routine dancing or twirling.

Before you call for the band to “cut members,” why don’t drop by a few rehearsals and learn what it takes to rehearse two hours a day, four days a week leading up to games?

See what it’s like playing an instrument in uniform for six hours or more, as opposed to lounging in the student section and complaining.

If you would rather continue to willfully spew ignorance as opposed to making the effort to ac-quirethe knowledge required for thoughtful, insight-ful, and correct commentary, transfer to Oregon.

JT Kuntz

I am thankful for all the hard work and dedica-tion you and the staff of The Daily Mississippian put into striving for excellence in journalism, but my fellow band members and I were appalled by the article in the October 8th edition titled “A Request for the Pride of the South.”

Columnist Jacob Fuller used your opinion sec-tion as a pedestal on which to blatantly bad mouth a hard-working organization at the University of Mis-sissippi.

I understand the concept of an opinion section, but I also understand that journalism is based on the idea of drawing conclusions from both sides of a story.

Mr. Fuller might view the Pride of the South as a lazy organization with no care for improving the game day experience, but I promise you and every other student at the U of M that that is not the case.

The band does not simply show up on game days and put on a show.

Preparing for game day begins weeks before the first game of the season.

Practicing in the grueling heat two hours a day for five days a week.

And that’s just during the school year. A week before school even begins, the band en-

dures a week of 10-hour-a-day practices in order to be ready to perform for Jacob Fuller and the rest of the crowd. The band is dedicated to improving game day for all involved.

“Band Handbook’s Purpose of the Band: The primary objective of the University of Mississippi Band is to be the center of school spirit at athletic and other University related events, while giving the student an opportunity to participate in a large and important activity on campus.

Our goal is to enjoy our involvement with the U of M Band through striving for excellence with oth-er fine people while representing the University.”

We are proud of the work that we do, we are proud of what we bring to this University, and we are proud to be the Pride of the South. As the larg-est organization on this campus, we deserve a fair chance to have our voices heard.

Thank you, Tanner KuntzMember of the Pride of the South

The new safety act also re-quires cyclists to use hand ges-tures to indicate direction when turning and to remain as close as possible to the street curb on the right hand side of the road.“Bicyclists need to obey the

traffic laws also in order to gain the respect of the motorist,” said Chief Martin.Kevin Stuart, local cyclist and

owner of Oxford Bike Compa-ny, believes the act is a step in the right direction, but he still doesn’t feel 100 percent safe on the road.“Theoretically, the act will

make the road a little safer for cyclists, but not all motorists know about it,” he said. “We still have people that blaze past us at 50 mph without giving us any room.”Billmeyer shared the same

mentality as Stuart about the efficacy of the new act.“I believe the act will have

some effect, but it will take a lot more than those few laws. It would be tough to convict someone of those things.”The act was created following

the death of 18-year-old cyclist and award-winning triathlete, John Paul Frerer of Tupelo, Miss. who was killed in a col-lision on Highway 6 in August

of 2009.Frerer placed third in his age

group, and 42nd overall in the Race of Grace Triathlon in Philadelphia that June, accord-ing to an online article by Dan-za Johnson of NEMS360.com. When the accident occurred, he was training for a race he planned to compete in that weekend. Frerer was to start his senior year of high school the next day.According to Chief Martin, the

death of Frerer in 2009 is the only recent incident involving a motorist/cyclist collision within the city limits that he can recall. Despite a lack of large numbers of fatalities, many groups in the state believe bicycle safety is still a major concern. There are many organizations

throughout the state of Mis-sissippi who are advocating in-creased bicycle safety, and who are using the new three feet act to further education about bi-cycle safety in the state.BikeWalk Mississippi is one

such advocate of bicycle safety in the state. BikeWalk is work-ing to spread the word about the John Paul Frerer Bicycle Safety Act through education and safety programs through-out the state for both motorists

and cyclists. The group also hopes to work

with police on law enforcement of the new act and decreasing harassment of cyclists on the road.“Even though getting the law

passed was a huge accomplish-ment, now our goal is to spread the message and make sure that people are aware of the law statewide,” said executive direc-

tor, Melody Moody.“We need more people on

bikes and more education for drivers. We need a mentality shift when it comes to owner-ship of the road, and we need to work together to build Mis-sissippi up.”While some cyclists are wary

of the effectiveness of the act, Moody remains confident.“I absolutely believe that the

passage of the John Paul Frerer Bicycle Safety Act will change the way motorists and cyclists interact. After all, if we can get more bicycles on the road we will be well on our way to a much healthier and safer state. And, if we can get motorists and cyclists to respect one an-other and build community, we are on our way to a better com-munity.”

A request for permission to apply for the Hazard Mitiga-tion Flood Control Grant was approved at the September 21 Board of Aldermen meeting.The grant was requested by Ox-

ford’s emergency management coordinator Jimmy Allgood, and is a flood and drain project of Chandler, Sisk, and Avent streets to prevent flooding of the streets and homeowners’ property. Residents say they have seen a

few inches to two feet of water in their homes in those areas. This is affecting private property as well as public property. Any time a state has a presidentially de-clared disaster, money is given to the state and is designated specif-ically to help people with certain projects within the state.“You can do a lot with these

grants; We’ve done this before for tornado sirens, generators

and, in the past, community tor-nado shelters,” Allgood said. To help prevent future flood-

ing, two grants in Oxford have been given permission to ap-ply for grants from the state. The first grant is the Chandler Avenue project, and the second grant is the Avent drainage sys-tem. Everyone within the state and county can apply for these grants, thus making it a selective process. The grant had an initial esti-

mate of $380,000 to $385,000. After careful consideration of

the material and construction costs, they dropped the cost down to $200,000. Allgood said that this has been

an issue for almost eight years, and during that time he has been trying to find means of fund-ing for the project. To start, $100,000 has been spent on temporary repairs. He also said that they have in-

vested $40,000 to $50,000 over

the past years in manpower and cleaning drains, bringing the to-tal to $300,000 to $350,000. The Chandler Avenue grant

will allow for the local streets of Chandler Avenue, Sisk Avenue, and Avent Street to drain more efficiently during heavy rains. Allgood said the grant would provide a more efficient drainage system. “We are updating the drainage

system, which will allow the wa-ter to be channeled off into the larger drainage areas,“ Allgood said. Once the state determines if it

fits hazard mitigation, the next step is to submit a complete form. The process takes 60 to 90 days

to go through the state and the federal government. If after this period of time the

grants are approved by the fed-eral government, then Oxford will receive the funding to begin the project.

they think on their feet and what they say,” Cobb said. “Also, if they have given any thought about improving access to justice

yet.”Among other questions, the

moderator will also ask if there is anything they feel should be un-dertaken to improve their court.“For example, I don’t know if

there are any major problems in backlogged cases here,” Cobb said. “But it is certainly a prob-lem around the state.”Judgeships from four courts are

Bowlers, wickets, wicket keep-ers, batsmen and fieldsmen are just a few of the elements that make up the game of cricket.The Ole Miss Cricket Club,

OMCC, is composed of 30 members. Many of them are of Indian

and Sri Lankan descent, and “college football is equal to college cricket over there [in India],” Satya Gavirneni, pres-ident of the OMCC and engi-neering major said.Gavirneni has been playing

cricket with family and friends since he was 6 years old. Win-ner of the best batsman award, which is his key position.“I mean, cricket is a major

sport in India, so everybody plays it,” Gavirneni said.A few of the other players

have been playing since they were kids, as well.

Chandra Sekhar Kaipa, who has been playing since he was 8, has been on the team since 2006. He was a captain from 2007

to 2008, playing batsman as well as bowler.Phani Kiran Alluri joined the

ed in 2006 with the help of Pramod Patlolla, Amar Chit-tiboyina and Herath Bandara, according to the OMCC web-site.The team’s season starts in the

summer and lasts until winter. They play in several tourna-

ments throughout the year, two of which are played in Oxford.This past weekend they trav-

eled to Auburn where they lost in the semi-final round of the competition to Auburn, Ga-virneni said. The team has won many other

tournaments in the past.The team is progressing, but

as a club they have challenges to face.They are unable to use cricket

balls when they practice be-cause their field is not flat enough. For now, they use hard tennis

balls, Gavirneni said. Making the field flatter is one

of the goals they have for their team.The team practices on the in-

tramural fields on Fridays and Saturdays from 6:30 p.m. to 10:15 p.m, according to the OMCC website.For more information on the

MATT & KIM TO PERFORM AT THE LYRIC TONIGHTFor many artists, describing album

development is an arduous task, involving lengthy sonic metaphors and mentions of “phases” or “artis-tic maturity.”

For Matt Johnson and Kim Sch-ifino, the process is adequately char-acterized using less than a sentence: “When we started, it just came out.”Spontaneity has always been the

driving force behind the Brooklyn

based, dance/punk duo, responsible for both the youthful sound they emit and the colorful nature of their career. In 2004, Johnson and Schifino de-

cided they wanted to make music. Having met two years prior at The Pratt Institute in New York, he pur-suing a degree in filmmaking and she studying illustration, the couple dove into their new pursuit. They progressed quickly, evolving

from an amateurish art project into a mainstay on the New York DIY scene in little over a year, playing self-booked shows in lofts, galleries and clubs around the city. The duo released their self-titled

debut in 2006 under indie dance label Iheartcomix. The record fea-tured “Matt and Kim” in raw form, banging out two and a half minute barrages of fizzling keys and punchy drums, Johnson’s drawn out, pop punk vocals fluctuating amongst the pronounced instrumentals.Their songs, which are constructed

using random sentences written by Schifino and synthesized by John-son, expressed the energetic zeal of youth, as well as more melancholic themes centered around their own reluctant maturation. Lauded by critics and listeners

alike, “Matt and Kim” forged the band’s unique musical point of view, while providing them a niche within the recording industry. 2009 proved to be the duo’s break-

out year.Their record “Grand”, released

under Fader Label, bought them to the forefront of the indie scene while simultaneously introducing them to the pop arena.The single “Daylight” reached

number 95 on the Billboard Hot 100 and they made their national television debut, appearing on the Jimmy Kimmel Show that August. At the MTV Video Music Awards in September, the duo won Break-through Video of the Year, receiving a moon-man for their not-so-legal “Lessons Learned” video.

“Sidewalks”, their upcoming re-cord set to drop November 2, stems from “Grand” as Johnson and Sch-ifino continue to expand from their minimalist foundations.“The album itself is pretty diverse,”

Johnson said. “A lot of crashy stuff, or it can get quite slow, but you know we come back to the same style.”“Cameras,” the first single off of

the new record, has a distinct hip-hop feel and employs extensive use of sampling, something hinted at on “Grand.”“We probably listen to more hip-

hop than any other genre,” Johnson said. “And in ‘Cameras”’ it’s appar-ent.”According to Johnson, hip-hop

is only one of the several styles ex-plored in “Sidewalks.” He attri-butes this, in part, to famed Gnarls Barkley producer, Ben Allen, who collaborated with the duo in his Atlanta studio where the album was recorded.“The different stuff he’s done,

the different sounds, especially the Gnarls Barkley stuff – we just want-ed to record an album that covers more than one genre,” Johnson said. “It was nice having another outside opinion other than Kim and I even though it was pretty tough. Kim and I were so used to working together on different things really for the past 8 years and then to bring another creative opinion in. There was a little head-butting but in the end I think we made a great album.”While promoting “Sidewalks” via

their ongoing fall tour, “Matt and Kim” are also holding pre-show lis-tening parties where fans, especially those in cities on the schedule before the November 2 release date, can come hear the album in it’s entirety.“We decided the people that’ve

come out and supported us and been there for us should get a chance to hear this album before anyone else hears it, which we thought was really cool,” Johnson said. “And also, we feel like we have nothing to

hide. We’re totally proud that you can listen to the entire thing and we’re ready for people to hear it.”While Johnson and Schifino make

terrific studio albums that aptly rep-resent who they are as musicians, live shows are the ideal place to not just hear their music but experience it.An indescribable energy permeates

these shows as the duo skillfully con-nects to the crowd through interest-ing banter while tearing through intense sets. Unpredictable stage antics are also

a key feature of these shows, Sch-ifino standing on her kit hyping up the crowd during breaks, and John-son climbing on anything from scaffolding to the audience.It’s not an exhibition though, it’s

part of their charm.They genuinely love playing mu-

sic, and it shows.“In the end we just want to make

music thats fun,” Johnson said. “And the music we’re inspired by is just music we want to dance to.”Their energy is so palpable it

seems never ending, a sentiment reinforced by Johnson’s descrip-tion of their tour manager’s initial encounter with Schifino’s, unique, pre-show routine.“I have to do stretches basically

because I hurt my back on tour a year ago,” Johnson said. “Kim’s war-mup is the funnier thing. I remem-ber the first time she told our tour manager: she’s like ‘yeah, I got to go warmup for 10 or 15 minutes’. He was like, ‘okay,’ and you expect to walk into the trailer where we were and her to have her drumsticks out and be warming up like that. But Kim’s ‘warming up’ is jamming her headphones on and dancing for like 10 to 15 minutes.”Matt and Kim will be hitting the

stage at The Lyric tonight. Doors open at 8 p.m. and the show is at 9 p.m. Tickets are $15 in advance.All ticket holders are invited to the

“Sidewalks” listening party which will begin when the doors open.

Behind a school record of 17 saves from freshman Sarah Story, Ole Miss played former coach Steve Holeman and nationally ranked No. 18 Georgia to a score-less double-overtime draw on Fri-day night.

“It was a really gutty perfor-mance from our team tonight,” Ole Miss coach Mott said. “They battled tooth and nail with Geor-gia for 110 minutes. We certainly had a lot of the play in the first half. And I felt like, in the second half, we came out and took it to them for a big part of the game.”

In minute 36, Georgia had one of its best chances of the game with a shot that was first deflected and then just hit of the crossbar.

Story also knocked a pair of shots over the crossbar in the clos-ing minutes of the first half. At halftime, the Bulldogs held a deci-sive advantage in both shots (15-2) and corner kicks (6-1), but Story’s then career-high nine saves kept the game scoreless.

“She was fantastic,” Mott said. “She was excited about it and worked so hard the entire game. She was in good positions, saw the ball and reacted well all night.”

Ole Miss had its first scoring chance in minute 62, but fresh-

man Mandy McCalla’s bending shot was saved by the diving Geor-gia keeper. After another attacking flurry from Georgia, sophomore Alix Hildal came on the counter-attack and beat the keeper with a left-footed shot, but was denied by the crossbar in minute 87.

In the first overtime period, se-nior Taylor Cunningham crossed a ball into the box, but McCalla’s header missed just wide. Then, with just over three minutes left in the game, freshman Erin Emerson played a through ball to McCalla, but Georgia’s keeper came out of the box to clear the ball away.

In the closing seconds of the game, on another counter-attack, Hildal took a pass from Emerson and found junior Dylan Jordan, whose shot and rebound shot were both saved by the Georgia keeper as time expired.

Tennessee 3, Ole Miss 1Freshman Mandy McCalla

scored her third goal of the season for Ole Miss early in the first half, but Tennessee answered back with two goals in quick succession and then added a late insurance goal for the 3-1 victory Sunday afternoon.

“Tennessee came out and worked harder than we did,” Ole Miss coach Matt Mott said. “We

have to find a way to play two games in a weekend. We got the first goal and weren’t able to get the game settled back down, so they were able to get those two goals in the first half and that was difficult for us to come back from. We had to chase the game and just couldn’t get an equalizer.”

Ole Miss opened the scoring in minute 13, when freshman Erin Emerson found McCalla in the box, who beat the Tennessee keep-er with a sliding, close range shot to the far post.

After tying the game on an own goal in minute 19, Tennessee scored the decisive go-ahead goal when they played a through ball and then beat a diving Sarah Story. McCalla nearly found an equalizer toward the end of the half, but her shot was deflected wide of goal by the Tennessee keeper.

In minute 58, Emerson used a give-and-go with McCalla to get in behind the Tennessee defense, but her shot was saved by the keeper. Finally, in minute 88, on a coun-ter-attack, Tennessee added a third and final goal.

“It’s disappointing to lose,” Mc-Calla said. “We just have to work harder in the next game. I don’t think the work rate was there and our passing wasn’t as good today. We have a lot to work on this week in practice.”

the hitters’ options so much less,” Ole Miss coach Joe Getzin said. “I know we are frustrating some teams with that, so we just have to continue to be steady with that.”Sunday’s match was the third shut

out in a row for Ole Miss.Middle blocker Regina Thomas

was coming off a six kill performance against Auburn where she hit .667. Against Georgia she had six kills and hit a game high .556, while senior middle blocker Miranda Kitts, who had seven kills and hit .462 against the Tigers, hit .467 in this match and

recorded seven kills.Sophomore setter Amanda Philpot

had a game-high 28 assists, the same number as the entire Bulldog team and added six kills and five digs. Ju-nior libero Morgan Springer record-ed a team-high 12 digs.The Rebels out-blocked the Bull-

dogs 13.0 to 3.0. The Bulldogs did not record a block until the third set.Ole Miss out-hit Georgia .318 to

.077.The Bulldogs (10-9, 2-6 SEC) ex-

tended their losing streak to three matches after Sunday’s loss to the

Rebels.Junior libero Carla Tietz led the

Georgia defense with a game-high 18 digs while junior setter Kathleen Gates added 10 digs and 22 assists.Getzin said he is encouraged with

the growth of his team.“I like the way our team is perform-

ing on our side of the net,” Getzin said.Ole Miss returns to action next

Friday when they take on the South-eastern Conference West Division leader No. 15 LSU at 6:30 p.m. in the Gillom Center.

Coming off a double-double per-formance with 10 kills and 11 digs, sophomore outside hitter Whitney Craven recorded a near double-dou-ble, putting down 16 kills and eight digs as the Ole Miss volleyball team shut out Georgia yesterday afternoon by score of 3-0 (25-13, 25-14, 25-19).
