Down to the bone cuts will shape the Board of Election winners next four years.
School board elections happen every two years but the members elected this Tuesday will have to handle an unprecedented combination of challenges, officials say. Among the seven candidates running are incumbents Mia Day Burroughs, Annetta Streater, Jamezetta Bedford and Mike Kelley.
New to the race are James Barrett, Raymond Conrad and Kris LOCAL Castellano. ELECTIONS After Nov. 8, five of them will be added to the seven-person board for four years. During that time, the Chapel Hill-Carrboro City Schools Board of Education will have to grapple with previously unexpected growth in student population while operating on a shrinking budget. And although they are running on similar platforms, the way those elected deal with declining resources will
be crucial to the schools future, said Susan Romaine, chairwoman for the Hogan Farms precinct of the Orange County Democratic Party, which organized a forum for the candidates last week.
continue to be a priority when the new board members are seated in December. At the start of the 2011-12 school year, 5,440 elementary-age students were enrolled in the district 42 more students than was projected. We had a spike that we didnt expect to see last year because growth was down during the recession, Knott said. If the district reaches 5,506 students, or 105 percent capacity, the county would have to freeze residential development in the area, in accordance with Schools Adequate Public
When pushed to adjust to state funding cuts, the Universitys School of Nursing chose quality over quantity. In February, the school announced it would shrink its incoming undergraduate class by 25 percent. Months later, prospective students are feeling the stress of increased competition, and the school is dealing with the possibility of more than half of its faculty retiring in the next five to 10 years. Although the cut in enrollment was announced earlier this year, next months class of applicants will be the first to be affected by the change. The school will reduce the size of classes admitted to the Bachelor of Science in nursing program by about 55 students, said Kristen Swanson, the schools dean. The enrollment changes were inevitable given the schools 20 percent funding cut during the past three years, Swanson said. You try to squeeze more out of fewer dollars, which we did with the first 10 percent, she said. But there was nothing left to squeeze out for the next 10, which will affect what we can deliver on. That change is worrisome for students like Melissa Robinson, a sophomore who plans to apply to the school in December. Nursing is what Ive always wanted to do, so I am 100 percent committed to it, Robinson said. My worry levels have increased. She said some of her friends who were planning to apply to the school decided to pursue alternative majors within the health field after they found out about the changes. They werent as confident as they were before with their chances of getting in, Robinson said. These concerns are not unfounded, Swanson said, given that there are several
Although UNCs tentative multi-year proposal to increase tuition by 40 percent would fit within the confines of the UNC-system Board of Governors tuition policy, board members say its not a foregone conclusion that the increase will be approved. The board approved a new Four Year Tuition Plan last year, which maintained a 6.5 percent cap on tuition increases proposed by universities. But the plan also included a
clause permitting schools to catch up to their public peer institutions tuition and fee rates, as long as they remain within the bottom quarter of their peers. UNCs tuition and fee advisory task force met last month and discussed a proposal to increase tuition by $2,800 during a two-to-four year span. The increase would raise the Universitys tuition and fee rate to $9,808 for all resident undergraduate students. Charlie Perusse, vice president for finance for the system, said UNCs tuition and fee rate would remain within the bottom quarter of its peers rates after such an increase. The bottom quarter rate,

Owning the pharmacy would allow her to buy the formula wholesale for about $9 per bottle. On the streets of Houston, Texas, where the drug is particularly popular, the same bottle can bring in up to $600.

Professor awarded for his Hungarian studies research
Peter Sherwood, a professor in the Germanic language department, has received an international award for his work with the promotion of Hungarian studies. Sherwood was recognized by the International Association for Hungarian Studies with the Janos Lotz medal for promoting Hungarian studies abroad. This award is given to scholars in the subject who live outside of Hungary and have distinguished themselves in the field. Sherwoods research includes Hungarian linguistics, EnglishHungarian and HungarianEnglish lexicography and translation of Hungarian literature into English.
The prolonged battle concerning ownership of Rex Healthcare has put the UNC Health Care system under scrutiny but now the system is asking that the same scrutiny be applied to its competitor. UNC Health Care submitted a public records request to Raleigh-based WakeMed Health and Hospitals two weeks ago, requesting all agendas and minutes from WakeMeds Board of Directors meetings and the hospitals financial audits since 2009. WakeMed will comply with UNC Health Cares request, and plans to begin sending information this week, said Heather Monackey, spokeswoman for WakeMed. The request is part of an
ongoing public spat between the two entities. WakeMeds $750 million bid to buy UNC-owned Rex Healthcare was rejected by UNC Health Cares Board of Directors in August, but WakeMed and some state legislators have questioned why a state-owned entity should own private hospitals. A legislative committee on state-owned assets is considering selling Rex, and could recommend that the state do so without UNC Health Cares consent. But UNC Health Care has questioned whether WakeMed has the financial standing to make a purchase of the magnitude of Rex. All weve gotten from WakeMed is a three-page document saying they wanted to buy us, said Karen McCall, spokeswoman for UNC Hospitals. Nobody from WakeMed has indicated in any kind of way that those dollars would really be available. WakeMed did not provide more information because its offer was rejected, Monackey said.
We would not have made the offer to purchase Rex without first ensuring that our offer was viable and in the best interest of our patients and the community, she said in an email. The UNC Health Care system submitted thousands of pages of information to WakeMed before it made its bid for Rex, and recently requested an audit of a fund used to transfer money between its various entities. For the past year, UNC Health Care has answered all questions asked of us and remained transparent throughout, Jennifer James, spokeswoman for the system, said in an email. We are now asking that WakeMed display the same amount of transparency regarding their role in providing health care to Wake County citizens, including their motivations to own Rex Healthcare and limit choice in Wake County. UNC Health Care argues that it needs Rex to further its teaching mission and that
owning Rex saves the system money by spreading out overhead costs. WakeMed is classified as a public body under the N.C. open meetings act because it was previously owned by Wake County. It is now an independent nonprofit, but this previous affiliation makes it a public agency for public records purposes which means it must disclose the requested records. Officials at WakeMed were frustrated with the time it took for UNC Health Care to respond to their records request last November. UNC Health Care was exceedingly slow responding to our public records request, Monackey said. We are committed to responding in a timely manner to the records request made by UNC. WakeMed is still unsatisfied with the amount of information it has received from UNC Health Care, Monackey said. Each of the points in the initial public records request have
Story So Far
WakeMed Health and Hospitals submitted a $750 million bid to buy Rex Healthcare from UNC Health Care in May. Rex, a Raleigh-based hospital, has been owned by UNC Health Care since 2000. The bid was rejected in August by UNC Health Cares board of directors. Since then, the House Select Committee on StateOwned Assets has begun to look at the possibility of selling Rex without UNC Health Cares consent.

Although Carrboro officially turned 100 in March, the party didnt stop then Southern Rail continued the celebration of the towns centennial this weekend. Sundays festival emphasized the community and people of Carrboro, with performances from local bands and the sale of antiques and handmade crafts by local vendors. The town of Carrboro did a celebration closer to the actual time, said Anna Mangiardi, the marketing manager at Southern Rail. We basically want to host an event while its still going on. Mangiardi said the festival celebrated Carrboros growth from its humble beginnings centered on a railroad station and a cotton mill to a diverse community. The town was incorporated in March of 1911 and was later renamed Carrboro after the mill owner, Julian Carr. Carr had bought the mill in 1909. The mill closed down in the late 1960s, but the Carrboro community has stayed true to its roots, preserving the mill and renovating it to create Carr Mill Mall. The mall is beside Southern Rail, where the festival was held. Many of the people attending the festival said they felt a strong connection to the town and its history. Caroline Frantz said she came to the celebration to see her sister play with Big Fat Gap, a North Carolina band. She grew up in Carrboro and recalled many fond days spent on Weaver Street. Its a slow-paced lifestyle

that I like, she said. The festivals play area, which included hula-hoops and jump ropes, drew families, including Chapel Hill resident Brooke Conklin and her 5-year-old son. Conklin said her favorite Carrboro memory happened one Christmas morning three years ago, when she and her son were near Southern Rail and a train came through much to the delight of her son, who was fascinated with trains at the time. The festival also highlighted Carrboros vibrant arts scene, which has attracted many to the town, including Matthew Lewis, who attended the event to see his friends perform. Lewis is visiting from the United Kingdom to participate in music festivals across the United States. Ive been here before, recording some drums at a studio, he said. Mangiardi said elements like the arts and the Weaver Street co-op have shaped Carrboro into a unique Southern town.

Graduate students from North Carolina will no longer have the opportunity to pay in-state tuition while attending out-ofstate schools. The Academic Common Market, a tuition-saving program for students who want to pursue degrees that are not offered by their in-state institutions, is being phased out because of budget cuts to the UNC system. Beginning fall 2012, North Carolina will no longer participate in the Academic Common Market, said Morris Dean, the N.C. coordinator for the program. The program is available for college students in 16 states that are part of the Southern Regional Education Board, a non-profit
that works with states to improve public education. It is simply a way to make programs affordable, Dean said. Twelve UNC-system schools, including UNC, participate in the program, which is funded by the N.C. General Assembly. Rep. Hugh Blackwell, R-Burke, said funding for North Carolina schools participation in the program is being eliminated as part of $414 million in budget cuts to higher education. The state doesnt have as much money to spend, he said. We were faced with many priorities on what is most important in a university context. Dean said after the spring of 2012, students will not be able to enter the program, but students already in the program will be able to finish their degrees. Undergraduate and graduate programs are available through the program, but North Carolina only participates at the graduate level, Dean said. About 81 students from North
Carolina are in the program, and 80 out-of-state students came to the state to study through the program this year. To qualify for the Academic Common Market, a student must be a resident of a participating state and select a program approved by the state. About 68 programs are offered in North Carolina, including Appalachian studies, gerontology and maritime studies. Programs offered through the Academic Common Market are specialized, so the program helps eliminate unnecessary duplication among participating states, said Sojourner Marable Grimmett, assistant director of student access programs and services for the Southern Regional Education Board. It recognizes that its impractical for any institution or single state to maintain a degree in every field of knowledge, she said. Contact the State & National Editor at state@dailytarheel.com.
The Inter-Faith Council for Social Service is kicking off its holiday season fundraisers to meet the growing demand of its hunger relief programs. Tuesday marks the 23rd annual Restaurants Sharing Ten Percent event, where 10 percent of the proceeds from 105 local restaurants will be donated to the IFCs community kitchen and emergency food pantry. The event, which is always hosted on the second Tuesday in November, falls on Election Day this year. The election folks, they think it helps get more people out, said John Dorward, the associate director of the IFC. And we figure if theyre out voting, theyll want to go out and eat at the same time. Dorward said the demand for the community kitchen, which serves three free meals a day,
has remained fairly steady, in part because UNC is undergoing less construction and has fewer temporary workers who frequent the kitchen. Meanwhile, the number of community members who use the emergency food pantry has grown tremendously and is not dropping back anytime soon, he said. About 3,400 households, which average three or four people, pick up groceries once a month, Dorward said. Since the start of the recession, the number of grocery bags distributed each month has increased from about 700 to 1,500, he said. The economy may be getting better, thats what I keep reading, but were not necessarily seeing that on our end yet. The restaurant event raised about $20,000 last year, and the IFC has set a goal of $25,000 this year, although Dorward said he is unsure if they will meet this goal. Keith Crissman, a manager at Top of the Hill, said they participate to give back locally. We are a food industry so we feel we have to help out the community were in, he said.

Natasha Wilson, the marketing director at Kildares, said the restaurant, which has participated in the event since it opened in Chapel Hill two years ago, wanted to get involved in more local initiatives. The IFC is also raising money for the holiday dinners it distributes through the Holiday Coupon Campaign. Although the IFC has seen its income shrink in recent years, the agency is impressed with the commitment of the community, including the restaurants, Dorward said. A lot of them are having hard times like everybody else and yet they still signed up this year, he said. Contact the City Editor at city@dailytarheel.com.

Right now our department is working on a strategic plan to better serve the community.

Chapel Hill police are looking for ways to improve traffic safety and thats paying off in more than just lower crash statistics. Last week, the AAA Carolinas named Chapel Hill an Outstanding North Carolina Traffic Safe Community for the fifth time since 2004. The annual award is determined by accident statistics, number of law enforcement officers and traffic safety programs and initiatives, said Tom Crosby, president of the AAA Carolinas Foundation for Traffic Safety. He said UNC-Charlotte provides the accident statistics used to help determine the award. Chapel Hill was one of five communities with more than 30,000
residents selected for the award. Lt. Kevin Gunter, spokesman for the Chapel Hill Police Department, said not all communities have a specialized traffic safety unit, but Chapel Hill has five officers solely dedicated to traffic-related issues. And though theyve been awarded for being good in the past, they are still working to get better. Sgt. Donnie Rhoads, a member of the Chapel Hill Crash Investigation/Traffic Enforcement Team, said the traffic unit is monitoring areas with frequent traffic complaints to see what they can improve.
Anita Badrock was told she would be serving a warrant but found herself caught in gunfire. This was just one of the scenarios Badrock confronted in a video simulator as part of the Chapel Hill Citizens Police Academy class. Badrock was one of eight participants who went through the 10-week program, which was started to teach interested residents about police training. dth file photo After meeting every week for three hours, the second class Chapel Hill is one of five communities with more than 30,000 residents graduated Oct. 25. to win the Outstanding North Carolina Traffic Safety Community award.

hoped the program would help him better interact with police. I was also curious as to what police do on a day-to-day basis and how things work at the station, he said. The class participated in a mock hostage situation and got to see firsthand how the Special Emergency Response Team, or SERT, worked in action. We went to an off-site location and pretended to be hostages, Bishop said. Badrock said the way the rescue team saved the trainees was flawless and amazing. Bishop said they also learned how SERT helps rape and domestic violence victims. They described to the class real situations, he said. They stay with the victims throughout the whole recovery process. He said he learned how SERT plays a vital role in the Chapel Hill Police Department. Bishop said the program looked for its participants feedback to tailor it for future classes. Chief (Chris) Blue made sure we got what we wanted out of the program by asking participants about their experiences, he said. Badrock said she liked the depth of the program but thinks it should be shortened. Graduates were presented with an official challenge coin and certificate at the closing ceremony. Badrock said it was special to receive the challenge coin when she shook the chief s hand. The coin is what officers receive and exchange for completing certain brave tasks.

The Carrboro ArtsCenter is looking to help local musicians, but it will need some help from the community first. The local arts venue submitted a proposal to win a $25,000 grant from the Pepsi Refresh Project, a popularity-based grant contest put on by the soda giant. The grant would allow the center to fund a five-concert series featuring emerging local artists as well as a chance for local high school students to experience the music first hand. The ArtsCenter has for some time been interested in giving local musicians access to a more professional performing experience one that guarantees a set performing rate and some spotlight but recent budget concerns hindered that ambition. Its an idea we have had for a while, but you have to be mindful of what the turn out is going to be, and that meant we would have to focus on artists that were established and that we knew would be bringing in a strong audience, said Julie Tomkovik, development director for the ArtsCenter. In January, the ArtsCenters Board of Directors faced a $265,000 deficit. In February, executive director Ed Camps position was eliminated to save money and remain sustainable. After changing its organizational structure, the ArtsCenter began to quickly regain its footing with growing community support. By September, the center had raised $141,000 by donations. If we can win the grant, then

Asbury said the experimental sites initiative is a way for the Department of Education to work with a small group of schools to find out which of its regulations work and which do not. But Asbury said most schools dont apply for the experiment. The vast majority of schools are not experimental sites, he said. UNC-CH must focus on complying with its standard practices, he said. Other UNC-system schools are also hesitant to apply. Having looked at the conditions, Im not sure wed need the flexibility that would come along with being an experimental site, said Julie Rice Mallette, director of financial aid at N.C. State University. She said NCSUs financial aid program is sufficient, and the university does not have a loan default issue among its students. Esther Manogin, director of student financial aid at Appalachian State University, said ASU is not going to apply either. Weve just not looked into it or investigated it, so were not going to apply, she said. East Carolina University is also not planning to be an experimental site, said Julie Poorman, the universitys director of financial aid.

he human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is the new sex ed. Its the latest front in the heated discussion on adolescent sexuality, challenged by the same denial and fear about teen sex.
EDiTOriAl
About two weeks ago, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pushed the envelope a little further, announcing its recommendation for routine HPV vaccination not just in 11to- 12-year-old girls, but in boys as well. The recommendation might seem misplaced, as HPVassociated cervical cancer is not a direct health concern in the male population. However, recent studies have found an association of HPV with more than just cervical cancer. In addition to causing genital warts in both men and women, HPV has been linked to 7,000 cases of cancer per year in men. These include mostly head and neck cancers, as well as penile and anal cancers. So there does exist a burden of disease in men, and they should be protected by vaccination the same as women. There is also a burden of responsibility. Men who carry HPV can transmit it to their sexual partners, so from a public health perspective, men should be vaccinated in order to prevent the spread of infection to others. The decision comes after a report of disappointing (HPV vaccination) uptake of 32 percent among teenage girls. It is precisely in this environment of low uptake that routine vaccination in boys will be most helpful. Some even hope that the recommendation will increase uptake of the vaccine universally. Like before, a backlash is to be expected. Concerns have been raised and refuted over the cost and risks, but one aspect that sets this vaccine apart is its implications for adolescent sexuality. Despite what some of us believe or want to believe, teenagers are having sex. In a 2008 study, half had engaged in vaginal or oral sex, and one in 10 had engaged in anal sex. The importance of the 11 to 12 age recommendation lies in the fact that the vaccine is most effective before exposure to HPV that is, before sexual activity. The recommendation does not say that children age 11 to 12 are having sex, but it reflects the reality that many of them will be when they are teenagers or young adults. And at least half of sexually active people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their lives. Some might claim that giving the vaccine promotes risky sexual activity in teenagers, but there has not been evidence yet to support this. In fact, in a 2009 study, 79 percent of girls said that vaccination reminded them of the risks of sexual contact. I applaud the CDC for expanding its recommendation, and I urge everyone to consider vaccination for themselves. The HPV vaccine is approved for men and women age 9 to 26, and you can get vaccinated at Campus Health Services through most insurance carriers. Though the vaccine does not cure previous infections, HPV usually clears from the body in a couple of years, and you will be protected for the future. Come on, everybodys doing it. At least I hope they will.

transportation, increases are not always justified and are rarely spread equally. Like a frog placed in cold water that is slowly heated, students are being tricked year after year into approving small annual increases that are slowly burning a hole in their pockets. If this cycle is not broken, students may soon find themselves in hot financial waters. Because the process is more negotiation than science, some organizations have turned to savvy techniques that so far have yielded dramatic increases in funding. The most common of these involves a series of small annual increases. One fee where this is demonstrated is the $346.35 student activity fee, which supports programs like APPLES, safety and oncampus involvement. Since 2008, the fee has increased $42.86, but none of that funding has gone to support student organizations. The majority, or $31.37, has gone to cover increased spending at the Student Union and Campus Recreation. This increase amounts to more than $850,000 in new funding. As a result, students now pay $241.57 for the same services while the amount available to the more than 600 on-campus groups has remained the same, at $39. Though these annual increases may seem like small change, it quickly builds into a significant fee after its repeated annually.
While inflation makes regular increases necessary, the rate at which many of these fees have increased is unacceptable and deserves a closer look during next years audit. While regular increases are bad, even more scary are permanent debt service fees that threaten to blindly charge students. These fees, used to fund construction and renovation projects, are supposed to expire on a certain date, but administrators have hinted that these fees could be extended permanently. This years fee reduction was only possible because of the expiration of such a fee. Ideas like this one shed light on the mindset administrators have toward student fees and reaffirm the need for oversight. Depending on next years audit, it might be necessary for student representatives to recommend cutting the amount of selected fees. Organizations that game the system by either slowly turning up the heat on students or tricking them into debtservice fees should not be rewarded with student funds. Fee committees need to make this clear. Cutting bloated fees will send a clear signal to administrators that this years attempts at fee gouging will not be tolerated. While students got lucky this year, they must stay vigilant or risk getting hit with hefty increases next year.

Students must grasp the larger effects of the AFAM departments woes.
hen any department comes under fire for compromising its academic standards, all students bear the consequences. The irregularities currently under investigation in the African and Afro-American Studies department are no exception. The students in the department who allege that the investigation will debase the value of their degrees are deserving of sympathy but failing to see the bigger picture. Maintaining a high standard of academic integrity across all departments boosts the value of any degree issued by this university, and allowing those standards to be violated has precisely the opposite effect. If the University fails to conduct its investigation in a timely and thorough manner, every student stands to lose something precious the value of the degree theyve spent four years earning. This investigation comes in the wake of a series of missteps committed by members of
UNCs football team, ranging from plagiarism to improper contact with professional sports agents. The AFAM department became ensnared in the scandal when it was revealed that Julius Nyangoro, then the departments head, failed to catch plagiarism in a paper by disgraced former UNC football star Michael McAdoo. Nyangoro has since stepped down as chairman. The students representing the AFAM/AFRI Student Union who complained Thursday that the current investigation will compromise the value of their degrees are absolutely right. And they deserve sympathy, since presumably they had nothing to do with the errors of their professors and fellow students. The only way to rectify these errors, however, is to keep pushing ahead with the investigation. Before anything can be fixed, the University must first determine the source of the AFAM departments problems. Moreover, those leading the investigation must not be afraid to uncover whatever ugly truth lies behind the socalled irregularities that pre-
cipitated the investigation. Whatever short-term collateral damage is done to students graduating with AFAM degrees will be far outweighed by the long-term benefits all UNC students and alumni will accrue from attending a university without a reputation as tarnished as our schools is now. Even those students who claim that the investigation is being carried out in a reckless and insensitive manner will reap its benefits, though it may be hard to see this from their current vantage point. Nonetheless, they would do well to show a little more patience. Last week, after reading a list of grievances to a panel of faculty conducting the investigation, representatives of the AFAM/AFRI Student Union walked out of the forum before hearing the panels response to their allegations. If these students hope to be taken seriously, they must demonstrate that they are willing to engage in a dialogue. If its a mutual, horizontal exchange with administrators that theyre interested in, these students must first put an end to their own one-sidedness.

The current board voted last week to jump-start the project, which will need to have construction under way in March in order to open by August 2013. That means construction would occur during the terms of the newly elected and re-elected officials. It will be interesting to see how growth continues and how we deal with it, Knott said. Romaine said how the school board deals with growth is intricately related with how they decide to spend limited money. For this school year, the district saw an almost $5.75 million reduction in state money and though they were able to use a one-time buffer fund to handle the cut, that wont be there to defray further cuts.

Coming into Saturdays swim meet against Marylands undefeated womens team, North Carolina swimming coach Rich DeSelm was worried about the stiff competition. We knew that the womens meet was likely going to be the one that had a chance to be a challenge, DeSelm said. But it quickly proved to be nothing to worry about. With scores of 180-119 and 178-121 respectively, the Tar Heel mens and womens teams won their home openers to remain undefeated in conference play. I never really felt that the meet was going to be anything we couldnt handle after the first half, DeSelm said. After the first 14 events, the meet seemed to be decided for both the men and the women. The men had dropped just one of their first seven events, while the women had won five of seven. Before the meet began, members of the 1972 womens swimming and diving team the first at North Carolina were honored as part of the alumni weekend festivities. The meet was dedicated to the 40th anniversary of that team. The North Carolina teams started the meet in convincing fashion with the help of seniors Steve Cebertowicz and Laura Moriarty. Cebertowicz swam the last leg of the mens 200-yard medley relay in 19.91 to seal the win in a race that was tight when he dove into the pool. You get a lot of momentum off the relay start. Theres a lot more excitement around relays, especially if its a close relay, Cebertowicz said. Cebertowicz also won the 50yard freestyle for the fifth time in five meets this year. He also posted a second place time in the 200-yard freestyle and swam in the 400-yard freestyle relay. Moriarty won all three of her individual events the 100-yard backstoke, the 200-yard breaststroke and the 400-yard individual medley by large margins. She also competed with her teammates in the 200-yard medley relay. I still have a lot of technical, small stuff I have to work on, Moriarty said. I just want to make a statement as a senior on the team. Redshirt senior diver David

The last time this senior class scored on N.C. State was Nov. 20, 2010, and itll go down as the second consecutive senior class to go winless against the Wolfpack. I feel sorry for the seniors.

out how the hot start to the Maryland meet propelled the Tar Heels to victory.
MacDonald won both the 1-meter and 3-meter diving events, posting his season-best score on the 3-meter board against the Terrapins. Each time Maryland won consecutive events, a North Carolina freshman swimmer stopped its momentum with a convincing win. The fact that they can step up their first semester and have a leadership role, getting their hand on the wall first is clearly impactful, DeSelm said. With a time of 1:47.63, North Carolina freshman Dominick Glavich posted his season-best time in the 200-yard butterfly to
win the 12th event of the day, and freshman Patrick Myers won the 200-yard backstroke with a stellar time of 1:49.93. I had big goals for myself. I still do, Glavich said. With the set of wins, both the North Carolina mens and womens swimming teams moved to 4-1 on the season and 3-0 in conference play. Were doing pretty good this year, Cerbertowicz said. (We) cant be too disappointed with where we are. We just have to keep moving forward. Maryland was the last ACC opponent for the UNC swimming and diving teams this side of New Years Day.

began playing, the Tar Heels own offense had not scored a point. When youre dealing with 18to 22-year-olds, you dont know what youre going to get sometimes, UNC interim head coach Everett Withers said. It bothers me an awful lot to lose any game. This is a big game in this state. This is supposed to be a rivalry and its supposed to eat at you. The 13-0 loss wasnt a blowout like 2008s 41-10 massacre, nor was it last years 29-25 loss to the Wolfpack when UNC couldnt maintain its third-quarter lead. The defense, for all intents and purposes, did its job on Saturday while the offense lagged behind. As a team I dont think we played up to our potential, UNC linebacker Kevin Reddick said. The defense, yeah, we might have played all right, but obviously not good enough since we gave up 13 points. In truth, UNCs defense holding the opponent to just 13 points would have won every game the Tar Heels have played this season. And the defense did it all with the Wolfpack getting excellent field position. N.C. State averaged its own 39-yard line to start its drives on Saturday. Four times the Wolfpack began with the ball in North Carolina territory and only once was it pinned within its own 20. UNC, on the other hand, had an average starting field position of its own 22-yard line and five

times it started a drive with the ball at or inside its own 10-yard line. Like I tell the guys, this is even better for us in the red zone, this is where you make your money, Reddick said. I think we did all right. After the touchdown we settled down and in the red zone, we stopped things from happening. But as backup quarterback Braden Hanson said, UNCs offense just couldnt make any plays when it needed to. The Wolfpack, which has only the ninth-best total defense in the
ACC, held UNC to just 165 total yards of offense, including three yards on the ground. Tim Scott, a freshman member of a UNC secondary that has taken its fair share of beatings this year, reasoned that if he was told before the game the defense would give up only one touchdown, he would have taken it. I thought wed be able to win giving them 13 points, he said. But I guess when its like this, we have to hold them to zero. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailytarheel.com.

dth/spencer herlong North Carolina running back Gio Bernard tries to fight between blocks set by Dwight Jones and Cam Holland in Saturdays 13-0 loss at N.C. State.
RALEIGH Without a chance to review the game film, North Carolina interim head coach Everett Withers said he couldnt shed too much light on why his team was shutout 13-0 by in-state rival North Carolina State University on Saturday. But running back Giovani Bernard didnt need the game film to point out some things he thought led to offensive deficiency. I didnt feel right going into the game, he said. I felt guys were just joking around, not taking this game seriously. I knew guys were just not really focusing. Even the small things that really shut the offense down, I think it was just a matter of that. The Tar Heels first play
from scrimmage was a 13-yard rush by Bernard, and redshirt sophomore quarterback Bryn Renner followed that with a 10-yard completion to Dwight Jones. After that, UNC ran 27 plays for a combined nine yards to finish out the first half. Chalk it up to a combination of defensive pressure by N.C. States front seven and, somewhat the result of good secondary play by the Wolfpack. But Bernard said N.C. States defense didnt do anything UNC hadnt seen before. It was really nothing that they were doing different. I think it was just a matter of our mindsets going into the game, Bernard said. You know, I think a lot of guys looked at their record and thought that, OK, their record isnt as good as ours, theyre not going to be as good as us. Coming into a rivalry game like this, the record doesnt really matter. I think its about
RALEIGH With about five minutes left in Saturdays game against North Carolina State, North Carolina defensive linemen began dancing to Montell Jordans This is How We Do It as it blasted over the loud speakers at CarterFinley Stadium. The defense had held the Wolfpack to just one first-quarter touchdown and 13 total points, marking the third time in 10 games in which Tar Heel opponents scored only one touchdown. But the problem with dancing to the mid-1990s hit was that, despite doing a superb job against the Wolfpacks offense up until the appropriately titled song

falgowski took MVP honors in the tar heels aCC title victory.
The North Carolina field hockey team wasnt going to let the ACC Championship elude them again. Not this year. Using three straight emptyhanded trips to the ACC tournament as motivation, including a loss in last seasons title game to Maryland, top-seed UNC powered its way to a 2-1 win against rival Duke at Marylands Field Hockey and Lacrosse Complex on Sunday to claim the ACC title for the first time since 2007. I thought at times weve played the best we played all year, coach Karen Shelton said. There was a period of time where Duke barely touched the ball. North Carolina possessed the ball for large chunks of time and got the
ball into Dukes circle often in the first half. But the Blue Devils defended stoutly around the goal in the run of play and on penalty corners. They were really firm defensively, UNC forward Katie Ardrey said. They were really aggressive, which is something I think we struggled with at the beginning. North Carolina managed four shots and four penalty corners in the first half, but could not find the back of the net. Senior Katelyn Falgowski, MVP of the tournament, wasnt discouraged, though. It came down to just keep plugging away and eventually it will go in the goal, Falgowski said. We really did focus on trapping the ball and one-, two-touch passing and just capitalizing on the opportunities. With the game in a scoreless tie at halftime, Shelton said the Tar Heels made a conscious decision to tighten up defensively by applying pressure to Dukes four-player midfield and intercepting the ball to keep a stranglehold on possession.
Less than four minutes into the second half, UNC found the breakthrough when Ardrey scored on a tip-in from Marta Malmbergs drag flick from the top of the circle. All season the coaches have been telling me that I need to get there on the post for those drags from Marta, Ardrey said. I just stuck my stick out and it went in. In the 48th minute, Ardrey was again involved in the buildup to a goal, as UNC scored one more off a penalty corner. Elizabeth Stephens scored on a straight shot, assisted by Ardrey and Falgowski. The Tar Heels took a 2-0 lead and appeared to be cruising to victory. But the Blue Devils, who were playing their third tournament game in four days, still had some fight left in them. Jessica Buttinger scored in the 65th minute to cut UNCs lead in half. Suddenly, the rejuvenated Duke squad began to create scoring opportunities as it looked for an equalizer in the games dying minutes. But UNC was determined not to
be denied its title. We collected ourselves, Falgowski said. With the last five minutes, we just talked about keeping the ball deep in their side of the field and keeping it wide and out of the middle. We were fortunate enough to execute and get the win. UNC was able to keep possession in the corners and kill the game clock, though Duke did get one last shot on goal that goalkeeper Sassi Ammer saved. Overall, UNC turned in a stifling defensive performance, preventing Duke from earning a penalty corner all game. The win gives UNC field hockey its 17th conference title. With her assist on Stephens game-winner, Falgowski set the UNC career assist record with 59. Im proud of every player that stepped on the field, Shelton said. We put a lot of time and effort into the preparation, and so everybody enjoys a day and a championship like this one. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@dailyrtarheel.com.
