crown
Jesse Stephenson Senior Staff Writer
Students at MSCD may face a tuition hike next semester.
MSCD president Sheila KaP,lan said she wants to increase tuition
to raise $3 million over the course of three years.
16 The extra revenue will help cover MSCD's operating costs such
as faculty ------
salaries and student services. According to Joe Arcese, vice
presi-
dent for Administration and Finance, stu-dents will fork over
about $30 more per semester if the raise is implemented. 'fhe
current rate for 12 credit hours is $722 per semester.
Kaplan said MSCD has the lowest tuition of most four-year
colleges in the state, and despite the proposed increase
students will still get an educational bar-gain.
"The point is, we are significantly below our peer
institutions," she said.
The tuition increase is part of a tri-level plan devised by
Kaplan to raise rev-enue through state funding, private
con-tributions and student fees.

> Kaplan goes-to Capitol for more funds Christopher Anderson
Senior Staff Writer
J MSCD's financial disparity demands
r
more funding to accommodate an expect-ed student enrollment
boom, or quality of education will drop, President Sheila Kaplan
told a legislative committee Oct. 27.
The Colorado Commission on Higher Education predicts an in-state
enrollment boom of 22 percent by the year 2001. That's at least
4,000 more MSCD stu-dents, Kaplan said.
However, an inadequate budget already has MSCD strapped.
"We receive the lowest per-student state subsidy of any
four-year public col-lege or university," she said.
Salaries for MSCD's faculty are lower than other comparable
institutions.
"Our administration is lean," Kaplan said. "I have eliminated
several adminis-trative positions and redeployed staff into direct
student services."
Suggesting solutions to help MSCD serve an increasing student
body, Kaplan laid down five steps for the state legisla-ture's
Higher Education Planning Committee to consider:
Tuition increases. Make state college funding
formula fair. Restructure the Auraria board
to make it more sensitive to student needs.
* Loosen up rules concerning off-campus edu~tion.
Ensure state dollars follow the students.
A 1994 law commissions the 12-member legislative committee to
submit a bill at the first regular session to "accom-modate and not
restrict enrollment demand."
As per the 1aw, the committee took recommendations from CCHE and
sched-uled five days of meetings with higher education
officials.
During the Oct. 27 meeting, Kaplan said that MSCD tuition should
be increased. "Our students are paying bar-
The Metropolitan/Nikolas Wilets , "When dollars are put for
library books ... it seems to always get shifted over into
salaries," Sen. Tiiiman Bishop said Oct. 27 to MSCD President

Inadequate.
gain-basement prices for a high-quality education. We can't
continue to remain as underfunded as we have been in relation to
comparable institutions without ulti-mately compromising quality,"
she said.
Chris Lepore, director of the Colorado Student Association, told
the committee that tuition should increase only at the rate of
inflation.
"Tuition and fees should not be the source to replace lost state
subsidy," he said.
Kaplan suggested the base-funding formula, which is used to
determine how much state funding a school receives, is unfair
because it doesn' t reward deliver-ing a cost-effective education.
The state funds MSCD $4,300 for every full-time equivalent student
while UCD receives $7,900 - an 84 percent higher funding rate, she
said.
She also questioned whether the base allocations need to be
altered for enroll-ment growth.
The Auraria board, which is respon-sible for campus
infrastructure and Tivoli Student Union dealings, would be more
efficient if the presidents of UCD, MSCD and CCD replaced the state
level execu-tives who are part of the board by law, Kaplan
said.
"This would result in an increased responsiveness to the needs
of students, faculty , staff and the instructional process," she
said.
Off-campus education rules that allow community colleges, but
not MSCD, to receive in-base funding for off-campus education need
to beloosened up, Kaplan said.
"There simply doesn't seem to be any logic, consistency, or
fairness in these
policies," she said. Kaplan said enrollment demands on
classroom space could be solved with telecommunication courses
and satellite campuses. She also said MSCD needs the incentive of
state funding for these pro-grams, instead of the college having to
use its own money.
"I believe strongly that a change will be necessary to
accommodate growth," she said.
Kaplan said state funding needs to follow the students, citing
an inadequate library, lack of specialized space for the arts, and
classroom space that doesn't meet code.
Sen. Tilman "Tillie" Bishop, R-Grand Junction, facetiously
suggested a line-item budget to prevent presidents from shuffling
money around.
Professor Eze leaves MSCD department in a 'lurch' Jesse
Stephenson Senior Staff Writer
A professor with a tumultuous histo-ry at MSCD caused his
department to scramble in finding faculty to teach his courses
after he resigned less than a week before the first day of fall
classes.
Moses Eze, a former Mechanical Engineering professor handed in
his res-ignation on Aug. 18, 1994.
Preceding his resignation he was found to have made
unsatisfactory progress as a professor, and w.as accused of sexual
harassment by a female student.
John Schmidt, the former chairman of the Mechanical
Engineering
Technology department, said Eze active-ly sought other
employment during the 1994 spring semester and expressed
dis-satisfaction with his job and relationship with his
colleagues.
Although Schmidt granted Eze per-mission to use the department
fax machine for sending resumes, he said the news of his
resignation was unexpected. "He left the program in a Lurch,"
Schmidt said
George Rowley, the acting chairman of the Mechanical Engineering
Technology and Industrial studies, said that despite Eze's short
notification the department was able to find replacement faculty to
pick up Eze's classes before
school started. In addition to finding a replacement
for Eze, Rowley said the department was forced to make changes
to its class sched-ule so that part-time faculty could pick up the
courses.
According to his contract, Eze was required to make satisfactory
progress in meeting the conditions of "The Final Written Plan to
Resolve Difficulties," dated Nov. 22, 1993, to be awarded another
contract for the 1994-95 academ-ic year.
A four-member review team, com-prised of John Schmidt, Percy
Morehouse, Ben Monroe III, and Bill T. Rader unanimously rated
Eze's perfor-
mance for the 1993-94 school year as unsatisfactory.
In their evaluation, dated June 14, 1994, the reviewers stated
that Eze did not submit written documentation con-cerning
fulfillment of the stipulations of the special contract.
The evaluation also noted that Eze was accused of sexual
harassment by a student. He was determined to be guilty of tl:e
allegations during a conference prescribed by state statute to
determine whether the harassment occurred. The document states that
Eze "made a sexual-ly harassing statement to (the student) and
touched her in a non-criminal nature."

Question and Answer with: Patricia Schroeder U.S. Representative
District 1 Louis A. Landa News Editor
LANDA: What do you see as the main differences between you and
your opponent Bill.Eggert?
SCHROEDER: Well, I think I'm an empowerment Democrat. I believe
that government is (here) to help empower people however it can.
That is, it should do everything it can to try and get young people
the education they need whether or not they come from the right
family, with or without the right amount of money.
I am obviously the type who believes that government should
stand back and not be in your home, not dictating your morals.
Government's got enough to do without running your moral life. We
don't need that kind of big brother stuff.
LANDA: Does this run along the lines of "family values?" Doesn't
that get so muddled these days?
SCHROEDER: Well, (my oppo-nent) is very anti-choice. He's very
far right on those types of things. I really believe that we have
had a long tradition of religious freedom and government staying
out of those kinds of decisions. We have a very different view of
that issue.
I'm .also a free trader. I believe we have to live in the world
we are in. We can build walls around this place and say we don't
need NAFfA (North American Free Trade Agreement) and we don't need
GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade). England tried that
and their whole economy fell apart.
LANDA: In what other areas do you see differences with
Eggert?
SCHROEDER: Assault weapons. He's against the assault weapons ban
and the Brady Bill. I don ' t really feel that young kids need to
run around with assault weapons, and I have no problem with doing a
background check on people when they come to buy a weapon.
LANDA: Orie of Eggert's main points was his opposition to big
govern-ment.
SCHROEDER: Anybody who thinks you can do without government is
probably kidding. Every government has to protect its citizens by
raising an army, negotiating treaties, protecting it's bor-ders. I
think we all know you've got to have government to do that.
I'm certainly for smart government. I think you want the
smartest, most effi-
cie~t government you can possibly hav~. I am very proud that we
have brought the number of federal employees down in the last two
years 272,000 slots by consoli-dating, reorganizing, tightening up
and doing away with programs that were irrel-evant. We have just
redone the entire pro-curement system, so we can get rid of all
sorts of people. When the republicans were in they always mouthed
"big gov-ernment." They grew the government like it was on
steroids. Contract procurement is a good example. Government
contract-ing in the '80s really only increased 8 per-cent. But the
number of government employees doing contracting increased 60
percent. Now something's wrong with that. So I don't like slogans.
When you say you are against big government you have to say what
you are going to cut.
Government's probably not big enough when you talk about the INS
(Immigration and Naturalization Service) down on the border.
Government's proba-bly too big when it comes to agriculture. We' ve
just closed 131 offices. There is probably more we can do
there.
But you clearly need people to moni-tor trade. You clearly need
the military. You clearly need to maintain your mone-tary system.
There are a lof of things you have to do.
LANDA: How do you deal with issues that arise when the good of
your district conflicts with the good of the nation? You tried very
hard to keep Lowry Air Force Base open.
SCHROEDER: I've always felt that this isn't Dogpatch. People
here are very

Democratic congressional candidate calls term limits stupid for
Colorado SCHROEDER from page 4 smart. If something's a boondoggle,
they don't want it. I had a roaring fight that went on for years
with The Denver Post when the whole (Colorado) delegation was
backing all these water projects. I voted against them and The
Denver Post would rail and rail and rail, so I would have to defend
myself at every corner. Yet, basically, people said I was right. We
ought to be doing recycling. We ought to be doing the technology of
today rather than damming up things, because that's 1890's
technology.
When it's that kind of thing I'm more than willing to stand up
against it. For example, both Rocky Flats and the (Rocky Mountain)
Arsenal. Lowry got the National Service Program. It's only one of
four sites. The Aurora Community College needed a place to go.
University of Colorado Medical Center needed a place to go. We have
all those jobs mov-ing into Lowry. I worked hard to do that and
worked hard to make sure HUD (Housing and Urban Development) gave
us the money to do it.
LANDA: What are your views on term limits?

it's stupid. In the House of Representatives there are 435
members. Guess how many come from Colorado? Six. So that means 429
don't come from Colorado. Texas, California, New York and Florida:
These states control half the votes. All of these things such as
viaducts, student loans, school aid are all based on a formula of
how you allocate these dollars, and the whole fight is on these
formulas. Now if you give up seniority, which is the only thing you
have to counter the four states that control these votes, you may
as well just write your check to the federal government and give 25
percent to each of these states. Because that is exactly how these
formu-las will work out. If you ever watch C-SP AN, the meanest
fights we ever have is on formulas. With clout you can fight hard
on the formulas, and you can fight hard on insisting they don't
porkify it, and it can be competitive.
LANDA: Why do you think the peo-ple of Colorado are willing to
vote in a term limit amendment?
SCHROEDER: I think that talk radio has just told people that all
politi-cians were pond scum and it's one of those quick
no-brainers. People vote for it and then they get it and say, "Oh
my
CU Events presents
gosh, we've shot ourselves in the foot." They also haven't
looked at countries
who have put in term limits. Mexico has the strongest term limit
law on the planet. You can't run for anything more than once. They
also have the most profession-al politicians and the most corrupt,
because they run for state house, then they run for Senate, then
they run for governor, then they run for a federal posi-tion. They
just pass it off within the same party. Is that better? They don't
learn any of the jobs really.
LANDA: In the Colorado gubernato-rial race you hear the term
"career politi-cian" used as an insult b~tween Romer and Benson. Is
that an insult?
SCHROEDER: I don't think so. Do you know what the word "idiot"
comes from? It comes form the root word in Greek meaning "not to be
in politics." "Politician" comes from the Greek word that means
"people." Everything is politi-cal to some extent. Look, I will not
defend all politicians. I will not defend all lawyers. I will not
defend all of anything, because people are not angels. If we were
angels, we wouldn't need government. We wouldn't need police. We
wouldn't need anything.

go ahead," he said. MSCD student Betsy Lefsky agrees,
but only if the money is used wisely. Kaplan said MSCD' s sparse
funding results in an insufficient number of full time faculty,
paltry student services, a high student-teacher ratio, and
uncompet-itive faculty salaries.
Despite the absence of surplus tuition money, Kaplan said MSCD
is the least funded four-year college in Colorado.
Arcese said if state funding is further reduced as a result of
increased tuition, MSCD will scrap its plan to hike the rates.
"I think they waste some of the money they have," she said.
"Money should be regulated toward better teachers and classrooms.
Some teachers are kind of second rate - some barely speak
English."
This year only 80 percent of MCSD's costs were covered by state
funding, and tuition brought no surplus revenue. Arcese said MSCD
goes into debt and has to cut back on faculty and programs when
funding doesn't cover 100 percent of costs.
"We don't want to charge our stu-dents more then we absolutely
have to." Arcese said.
MSCD student Timothy Rogers doesn't mind the increases.
Faculty Senate President Jerry Boswell said students will get a
better quality of education for the money they put in.
"It's a trade out," he said. "Students have been shortchanged in
the past because the resources weren't there."
The president will make an appeal to the state legislature to
ask that state fund-ing to MSCD not be reduced if tuition is "If it

To spit is inhuman and disgusting Well, it happened again today
as I was walking to
class. A student in front of me let loose with a big, wet,
bubbly string of spit right where I was about to step. With deft
sidestepping and quick, evasive maneuver-ing, I missed stepping in
the glistening glob at the last minute.
People! Did you grow up in a barn? Didn't your par-ents teach
you that spitting is gross, impolite, and unsanitary? It is!
Is this a trivial complaint? Possibly. Is stepping in
someone else's spit disgusting? Definitely! While appreciate the
First Amendment's guarantee to free-dom of expression, as the
legalists would say, your rights end where my nose (or foot, in
this case) begins.
What I'm saying is, keep your bodily fluids to your-self! Not
only will we be able to walk freely on campus once again, we will
also cut down on ice of unknown origin this winter.
Marisa Mueller MSCD student
Off-campus networking is heaven In the past few weeks I have
attended several pro-
fessional conferences. Being a Human Resource major, these
meetings
were extremely educational, adding information to my base of
knowledge. But more .important, I had an incredible opportunity to
network! As one person said, "It doesn't matter what you know, it's
who you know."
Of course, these were not the first professional meetings I have
attended. I learned early in my junior year that networking with
professionals could lead to internships, part-time work, and maybe
full-time work. If a meeting is not great for networking, it can
still be used as an impressive addition to a resume.
Because I am graduating in December and I care that "younger"
students acquire an excellent education, I would like to encourage
them to participate in more professional conferences. Every week
there are meet-ings taking place covering almost every field of
employ-ment. Information on up-coming events can be gath-
ered from professors and student organizations such as the Human
Resource Management Society.
In addition, I ask, I challenge - whatever it takes - the
president of the college, the deans of the schools, the chairs of
the departments, the full-time professors and the part-time
professors, to encourage their students to attend conferences off
campus.
With that, I applaud Beth Frederick, who requires her work force
diversity classes to attend at least six conferences and does not
hesitate to cancel her labor/employee relations classes so the

Inept play review was a hatchet job I don't know if I saw the
same
"Quilters" that reviewer Louis A. Landa saw, but I can only
rebut Landa's hatchet job of a fine play (The Met, Oct. 21 ).
Landa, you missed a great performance!
My 11-year-old son and I attended the play on a cold, rainy
Saturday night. I had spent the day writing a term paper, and my
son and I were tired. But we wanted to see the performance.
Do you want to know what hap-pened? We were enthralled. I forgot
my fatigue, and my son sat rapt through the entire production.
Believe me, this is meant as a trib-ute to the cast and their
rendition of a difficult script!
dered just how closely he had watched the play, and what
mes-sage he had derived from it.
Perhaps Landa showed some personal distaste for the intimate
aspects of the women's hard lives. The women depended on each other
for emotional support, which they derived partly from discussing
intimate and seemingly distasteful facets of their lives. They also
showed each other loyalty and affection, as for instance, when they
attended the birth of a baby.
Also, I enjoyed the music and the songs. Many of the songs,
which included a fair sprinkling of gospel singing, were sung with
no instrumental accompaniment. Yet, for the most part, the
actresses sang them in tune and on pitch. The audience heard smooth
harmony, and that was good singing!
In contrast to Landa's attitude about the consistency of the
acting, I saw smoothly constructed piece-work. Any patchwork was
minimal to the point of nonexistence.
Landa reviewed the play inept-ly. That's all there is to it. I
think that he missed his calling. He should have been a
mudslinger.

Landa's use of relative terms such as "barely watchable" or "not
the strongest'' confused me. I won-

I loved the shadow block quilt that depicted that ch~dbirth. The
actress pantomimed labor so realis-tically, that I held my breath
in hop-ing that she would get through it OK. The actress got the
audience to empathize with her, and that was good acting!

Q_f poli,tics, cynicism and the undead The Rev. Mort!.Farndb
FirstMPresleyterianm;Church' of Elvis
, ,:;;- _, . , .. ,J]tL "ii ~bi_ .::~, ..,$;,
I don't know about you, but politicians make me sick. They're
like telemar-keters in a time warp. You don't hear a peep from them
all year, then the phone never stops ringing. Suddenly, they're
everywhere - TV, radio, newspapers, billboards - all screaming at
us: "Buy me! Buy me!"
But I'm not going _shopping this election day.
I'm not buying any of the candi-dates this year. Or any
propositions, supposittons or hypotheses. I'm not entertaining any
amendments. What I am doing is dropping out again. Sort of a
personal '60s revival.
I won't be alone. A lot of people are cynical these
days. It's not just that government is bloated and corrupt. It's
always been bloated and corrupt. We've always had politicians (and
bureaucrats, lobbyists, contractors and other vultures) feeding off
the carrion. But the corpse is really starting to stink now.
And now we have media analysts to read the entrails.
Election time has become show-time in America. We're blitzed by
attack ads and bombastic commentators. Assaulted by sound bites and
healed by spin doctors. Entertained by saxophone
riffs on late-night TV as we sort the dirty laundry. So
mesmerized by media have we become that a hack movie actor can
impersonate a president for years and win an Oscar for the
performance.
We no longer live in a democracy. I think the term for our
present form of government is a mediocracy.
This year's campaign has done nothing to cure the national
cynicism. Maybe I'm on Mars, but this is the pic-ture I'm getting
of the current political scene:
A divorced drunk driver, harassed by giant ducks, is running for
governor of Colorado and losing badly.
A slick Texas oilman is spending $15 million of his own money to
buy a Senate seat in. California, but he's real-ly controlled by
his New Age, cultist wife.
Ollie North, the scariest guy in America, has $18 million to buy
his Senate seat in Virginia (financed by God knows who), a seat now
held by another ptlotogenic ex-military officer, who has a fondness
for beautiful women who are not his wife, who hap-pens to be Lynda
Bird Johnson, LBJ's No. 1 daughter.
Who is the very guy who soured me on politics in the first
place.
You can't help being cynical about politics when you grew up in
the '60s. Kennedy was the first president most of
us cared about. The old gray general who'd saved his career with

CoPIRG serves reality for lunch Kevin Juhasz Staff Writer
The focus of the Colorado Public Interest Research Group's Oct.
27 World Reality Lunch was the differences in how people of the
world eat.
Tables in the Zenith Room at the Tivoli Student Union were set
up to repre-sent the first, second, and third worlds. The first
world was the nicest table, with plates, silverware, a tablecloth
and center-piece. The second world had a tablecloth, and the third
world tables were bare.
As people entered the room, they were asked to chose a number
out of a hat. The number instructed them to which world they were
to go.
"The best thing that can happen from this event is if the
activism and the involvement of these people transform and extend
out into the community where it's needed," said Randall Peterson, a
CoPIRG volunteer.
B'efore lunch, speakers talked about the purpose of tbe
lunch.
Renny Fagan, a representative from Gov. Roy Romer's office,
spoke on the state's role in dealing with homelessness. He talked
about how the state coordinates with federal agencies on the
problem.
Charles Angeletti, an MSCD profes-sor of history, spoke on the
continuing problem of hunger and homelessness.
"I was here last year," Angeletti said,
"and when they told me the name of this was once again going to
be Reality Lunch, it occurred to me that reality really hasn't
changed any in a long time. As a matter of fact, reality is getting
worse for a number of people."
He said that America has not addressed the problems of
education, pro-viding jobs or raising the awareness of people in
power for a long time.
Angeletti also said that the country has not recognized the
problems of the poor.
"We have a war on poverty that is being won by people who are
against solving the problem," he said.
Rich Cocha spoke next about the problems of homeless children
and teenagers. Cocha started Stand Up for Kids, a not-for-profit
organization that helps children on the streets.
Cocha said he is concerned with the direction the country is
going and the things people are concerned with saving, such as
animals, the ozone layer, and the rain forests. He said he doesn't
know for whom all of these things are befog saved.
"Those we should be saving them_for are dying on the streets,"
said Cocha.
After Cocha finished, the lunch began. The first world was
served a meal that consisted of tamales with chile sauce and
sandwiches with meat and cheese. The second world was allowed to
eat what was left over and had to serve themselves.

The third world group was allowed to eat whatever was left over.
Their meal con-sisted mostly of bread and water, although there was
a bit of meat and cheese left.
The final speaker was Rep. Patricia Schroeder, D-Denver.
Schroeder. said that we need to stop ignoring the problems and
look for ways to deal with them.
"The idea that anyone goes to bed hungry, or the idea that
anyone doesn' t have shelter in a nation that has so much is really
almost a condemnation of us that
we have not paid more attention," she said.
She also said that this is the genera-tion that can solve the
problems and has the technology to do it.
"The thing that we have to have to make it all work is heart,"
said Schroeder.
"I'm thrilled that they're doing this," Schroeder said about the
CoPIRG lunch. "Trying to be compassionate and find out what we can
do to solve problems togeth-er, I think makes a whole lot more
sense than beating people over the head."

New concert films worth watching twice Jeff Stratton Editor
They shoot concerts, don't they? Concert filmakers have a
difficult task: capturing an ephemeral event and trans-forming it
into a souvenir of a memorable experience that can be enjoyed again
and again. These new chronicles fall into this category.
Peter Gabriel's 1993 tour allowed him to bring the theatrics he
pioneered in his Genesis days to full fruition. One of the most
elaborate and ambitious stage concepts ever attempted, a mere audio
recording of the Secret World shows wouldn ' t suffice for anyone
who wit-nessed the grand production - you'll need to see Pete and
his band magically disappear and re-appear at the end of the
120-foot-long stage, Pete's stunningly high-tech video headgear,
his band being packed into a suitcase, Shankar's wicked double-neck
electrified Plexiglass violin and all the other visual highlights
of the show.
Secret World Live includes most of the songs American audiences
saw, although the CD substitutes a charged version of "Red Rain"
for the video's
Mr. Gabriel paddles across the river of his spacious stage.
"San Jacinto." Though the dramatics are eye-catching, Gabriel's
band, including long-time mates Tony Levin (bass and stick) and
David Rhodes (guitar), are technically great enough to dazzle
without any stage production. Gabriel ' s female foil for the
American tour, Joy Askew, was replaced with Paula Cole for this
con-cert, which was recorded last November in Modena, Italy. Cole
doesn't have the ability to vocally upstage Pete the way Askew did,
and that, for those who know better, is the only disappointment
here, unless you find Gabriel's somewhat silly dance moves a
detraction.
Gabriel's last two studio efforts, Us and So are the fodder for
most of the show. "Digging in the Dirt" and "Sledgehammer" are two
highlights. "Kiss That Frog" has the look of an MTV-style video:
full of close-ups of band members. Us' hidden masterpiece, "Secret
World," receives a 10-minute ele-giac rendition adorned with strobe
lights and spinning camerawork. "Salsbury Hill" is the only older
song that appears on the CD.
Don't expect old favorites from Dead Can Dance's Toward The
Within. The modem masters of Medievalism include among these 15
tunes only four that have appeared on any of their six albums. The
dynamic yin/yang duo of Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry present a
couple of Irish folk songs ("I Am Stretched on our Grave," "The
Wind that Shakes the Barley") some fanatically powerful new dervish
material ("Rakim" and "Oman"), two absolutely heart-rending Gerrard
pieces and a trio of lackluster folk songs from Perry.
Where Gabriel's stage was a cutting-edge, sleight-of-hand magic
show, Dead Can Dance packed seven members into a tiny space at
Santa Monica's Mayfair Theatre. The invite-only concert was also
taped last November. Nestled tightly together with a bevy of
folding chairs and protruding wires, the band members' casual
attire and un-self-conscious demeanor lets the spectator be taken
over by the sheer passion of the music.
Not hard to do when Gerrard's mere presence is emotionally
devastating. Live, she looks like Glenda the Good Witch, a

Men survive tough season Sports briefs Trevor Grimm The
Metropolitan
Young sports teams always talk about how their youth will pay
off in the future.
But for the MSCD men's soccer team, the future came early. After
start-ing the season 1-7, the Roadrunners went 6-6 the rest of the
way, and were outscored 30-23 over the last 12 games after being
outscored 33-3 in the first eight games.
And although the Roadrunners fin-ished the season with a 3-1
loss Monday to Regis, MSCD picked up a 2-0 victory Oct. 28 against
the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs to pick up their
first shutout of the season.
"We had a great second half of the season," MSCD coach Al Ashton
said. "We had a good team effort, instead of playing as
individuals, and that's what made the difference. We could have
fold-ed and lost everything, and we didn't."
Adding to the Roadrunners' opti-mism for the future is the fact
that the entire team could be back next year.
"We won't lose a single player," Ashton said. "Our two oldest
players are Billy (Kawamura) and Wade (Schaefer),
and they'll both be seniors." Against Regis, the young
Roadrunners were competitive against the 12-6 Rangers (10-1
CAC). After two early goals, MSCD played Regis evenly the rest of
the way.
Stuart Chandler opened the game's scoring just 9:07 into the
game when he scored on a shot into the far post. Matt McDowell
added to the Rangers' lead at the 21:44 mark when his shot eluded
goalkeeper Larry Sersante.
The Rangers added some insurance at the 64:40 mark when Jeremy
Sanchez scored an unassisted goal that deflected off Sersante,
giving Regis a 3-0 lead.
Wade Schaefer prevented the shutout when he scored at the 73:20
mark to close the gap to 3-1, but MSCD could get no closer.
"It was a great goal by Wade," Ashton said. "We had our chances,
and we could have won."
Against UCCS, the Roadrunners looked impressive in picking up
their first shutout of the season. Sersante made nine saves in the
win, as he continued to be one of the league's hottest
goalkeep-ers.
After a scoreless first half, the

Roadrunners gave Sersante some help early in the second half
when Schaefer scored at the 55:50 mark on a shot from inside the
penalty box.
MSCD held on to their 1-0 lead until late in the game when Maher
Kayali scored his third goal of the season at the 89:55 mark to
give MSCD some insur-ance and a 2-0 win.
Schaefer credited the team's increas-ing maturity for their
recent success.
"We're a little more mature," Schaefer said. "We got to know
each other better (as the season went on)."
With the split last week, the Roadrunners finish the season
7-13, with a 4-8 record in the CAC. Before Monday's game, MSCD
stood a respectable third place in the league standings, but as the
only team to finish its season, its final positioning was
unavailable at press time.
Overall, 16 of the 26 Roadrunner goals this season were scored
by fresh-men, with Aldo Castillo leading the way with 10 goals and
21 points.
"Next year, we will be pretty good," said Castillo. "The main
thing is we have fun and don't just think about winning."
Congrats Women's volleyball player Crissy Canada
was named Player of the Week for her efforts in two matches. She
totaled 33 kills, eight total blocks and nine digs as MSCD swept
two Colorado Athletic Conference matches last week.
Farewell The women's soccer team is losing three
seniors. Rosie Durbin, Jessa Montoya and Chrissy McCain have
completed their careers. Thanks for the memories and best of
luck.
