Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a syndrome, in the case of hemodynamic alteration of a number of diseases and processes, such as the progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance, right heart failure and early death. Frequently patients with PH have reduced functional capacity, quality of life and survival. It was demonstrated recently that patients with HP also have inspiratory muscle weakness, possibly further increase the fatigue and dyspnea during exercise. To meet this need, inspiratory muscle training can lead to significant improvement in respiratory muscle strength, exercise tolerance and dyspnea, thus resulting in reduction of discomfort during activities of daily living, increase in exercise capacity and improved quality of life in different situations.

|Armed Suspect Sought in Boone Incident
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 10 October 2013 10:42
Last night, just after 7:30 PM, Boone Police responded to a report of a man with a gun demanding entrance into a closed business. An employee reported that while she was cleaning up, a man started knocking on the door, and as she approached the door, the man began to bang on the door
and yelled at her to let him in while brandishing a handgun. The employee moved to the back of the business and called 911. Boone Police officers arrived within three minutes and began their search for the man, but were unable to locate the suspect. A K-9 was utilized to track the suspect from the business to a parking lot where the track ended, leading to speculation that the suspect may have fled the area in a vehicle. The suspect is described as a white or Hispanic male, 18-24 years-of-age, 5' 09" tall, thin build, with a goatee and facial hair, wearing a gray sweatshirt and a dark colored beanie. Boone Police are asking anyone with information about this incident to contact High Country Crime Stoppers at 828-268-6959 / 828-737-0125 or the Boone Police Department at 828-268-6900. All information will be kept confidential.

More than 8,000 runners pound the pavement at Eugene Marathon
EUGENE, Ore. - Clear skies and cold temps greeted excited runners Sunday morning, who lined the streets near Hayward Field for the 2011 Eugene Marathon.
"It's Track Town USA, so we had to come back and run a half marathon where I went to college," said half-marathoner Chris Thorndike-Kent
Some runners say they come for the prestige of the event.
"There's a short list of one you must run and this would be one," said one marathoner.
Others come because of the course. "I've heard it's a good place to get a quick time and I'm trying to get a quick time and get a higher seed in the Chicago Marathon," said half-marathoner Josh Vanderwiele.
Marathoners Matt and Berta Andrulis-Mette came all the way from Connecticut to run the entire 26.2 miles.
"Well we run quite a few and we had some friends who had relatives out here and it was a must do," said Berta.
They joined runners from all 50 states and nearly a dozen countries who ran or walked the full and half marathon.
But it wasn't just runners who got up early, spectators also got into the spirit, lining the streets, giving some extra encouragement to runners passing by.
"The chemistry and the crowd in Oregon is amazing, so it's great support," said marathoner William Brown.
But for some runners, it was all about focusing on the finish line.
"Hayward Field, where else could you run a marathon and finish in the midst of all that, it's awesome," said Berta.

Thursday, September 29, 2011
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Lipscomb Bisons men's soccer team will end their four-match road trip, this weekend, when they travel to USC Upstate (Sept. 30, 6 p.m.) and ETSU (Oct. 2, 12 noon) to open the Atlantic Sun season.
The Bisons enter conference play with a 1-7-2 record. Lipscomb's lone victory came against VMI on Sept. 9. Upstate defeated that same VMI squad 1-0 last weekend.
Lipscomb will be out for revenge against ETSU, which ended the Bisons 2010 season with seven seconds left in double overtime of last season's A-Sun semifinals with a Theo Yang one-timer goal.
Senior Garret Pettis leads the Bisons with three goals this season; he scored twice as a freshman against Upstate in 2008.
Keeper Brent McGee posted a 0.90 GAA average and made 19 saves in three matches against these two squads last season. McGee enters this season's matches second in the conference, and 21st in the country in saves.
Lipscomb will host Belmont in the annual "Battle of the Boulevard", Sunday, Oct. 9 at 7 p.m. The match will be the first the Bisons will play at the LU Soccer Complex in 2011. The Lipscomb soccer field has undergone a lighting renovation that caused home matches to be moved prior to this game.
Check Lipscombsports.com for more information on the Bison soccer team, and be sure to follow us on Twitter (@LUMSoccer) and like us on Facebook (Lipscomb University Men's Soccer Team).
Opponent's Last Outings
Upstate had only one opponent last week, defeating VMI 1-0. T uesday, the Spartans lost to Furman 2-1 in their final non-conference test of 2011. As for ETSU, they tied Furman on Sunday evening in a scoreless draw for the Bucs lone match. A road test with Winthrop was canceled last Friday.
Last Time Against This Weekend's Opponents
Lipscomb got three saves from Brent McGee and an 86th-minute goal from Miguel DaSilva to knock off Upstate on Oct. 22, 2010; it was the final victory in the midst of the Bisons season-best four-match winning streak.
Two days later, the Bisons dropped a 2-1 overtime match to the Bucs. Kevin Barbar scored his season's second goal and McGee made eight saves during the match. In the A-Sun semifinals, top-seeded ETSU defeated Lipscomb 1-0 in double-overtime. McGee again made eight saves, but Yang's one-timer with seven seconds left in the second overtime ended the Bisons 2010 campaign.
McGee Among the Elite
Senior Brent McGee has been stellar in his final season at Lipscomb. In addition to being second in the conference in saves (40), the Parkersburg, W. Va. native is 21st nationally in the category, and ranks 76th in saves per game at 4.0.
Bibb's Two Goals Not Enough for Lipscomb at SIU-Edwardsville
In just 31 minutes, Nick Bibb was able to muster the entire Lipscomb offensive output at SIU-Edwardsville, scoring his season's first two goals in a 3-2 loss. It was lucky Bibb got in; only three of Lipscomb's 11 starters didn't play the full 90 minutes.
Off Night Offensively Dooms Bisons At EIU
Lipscomb was nearly doubled up on shots by the Panthers (17-9), losing to EIU 2-1 on the road. Splitting time in net, freshman AJ Schlitt and Brent McGee each allowed a goal and made two saves. Lipscomb's lone goal came on own-goal off of EIU's Mike Picinich, the second own goal Lipscomb has gotten this year.

We created Pandora to put the Music Genome Project directly in your hands
It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Digital Underground
Shock-G (born Gregory E. Jacobs, August 25, 1963) spent most of his childhood moving around the East Coast with his family, eventually settling in the Bay Area of California. He dropped out of high school in the late '70s and spent several years pursuing a life of crime before eventually finishing his degree and going to college to study music. Along with Chopmaster J, Shock-G formed Digital Underground in 1987, and the duo released a single, "Underwater Rimes," that year, which went to number one in the Netherlands. In 1989, the group signed with Tommy Boy, and that summer "Doowutchyalike" became an underground hit. By that time, Digital Underground had expanded significantly, featuring DJ Fuze, Money-B (born Ron Brooks), and Schmoovy-Schmoov (born Earl Cook). Sex Packets, the group's debut album, was released in the spring of 1990, and "The Humpty Dance," which was rapped by Shock-G's alter ego Humpty Hump, climbed all the way to number 11 on the pop charts, peaking at number seven on the R&B charts. With its P-Funk samples, jazzy interludes, and innovative amalgam of samples and live instrumentation, Sex Packets received positive reviews and went platinum by the end of the year.
Digital Underground followed Sex Packets in early 1991 with This Is an EP Release, their first recording to feature rapper Tupac Shakur. The EP went gold and set the stage for their second album, Sons of the P, which was released that fall. On the strength of the gold single "Kiss You Back," Sons of the P also went gold, but it received criticism for its similarity to Sex Packets. By the time Digital Underground delivered their third album, The Body-Hat Syndrome in late 1993, hip-hop had become dominated by gangsta rap, particularly the drawling G-funk of Dr. Dre, which ironically was heavily indebted to Clinton. Consequently, their fan base diminished significantly, and The Body-Hat Syndrome disappeared shortly after its release. Nearly three years later, Digital Underground returned with Future Rhythm, which spent a mere three weeks on the charts. Who Got the Gravy? followed in 1998. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

PAWTUCKET — The Pawtucket Police are investigating two shooting incidents that occurred in two days on the same street. Yet, they say the incidents do not appear to be related at this time.
According to Major Arthur Martins, the first incident occurred on Nov. 19 at approximately 6:30 p.m. Witnesses told officers that the occupant or occupants of a small vehicle had shot at the occupants of a sport utility vehicle in the vicinity of Merrick Street near Main Street.
The responding officers located an SUV that was involved in an accident with a parked vehicle. Witnesses indicated that the SUV was traveling in reverse when it was being fired at. The SUV then struck a parked vehicle and the occupants of the SUV, reportedly two or three individuals, fled the area on foot and were not located. The small vehicle and its occupant or occupants were also unaccounted for, Martins said.
Officers located two parked vehicles that had been struck with bullets and also found several .45 caliber shell casings on the street. No injuries were reported.
The owner of the SUV told police that she had lent the vehicle to someone to use, Martins added. This investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is asked to contact Det. Richard LaForest at 727-9100, ext. 761.

CANTON After weeks of contentious budget meetings, it took St. Lawrence County legislators just a few minutes Monday night to adopt a 2014 spending plan that reduces next years county property tax levy by 14.31 percent.
Lawmakers voted 13-1 in favor of the $234,121,032 budget, with Legislator Daniel F. Parker, R-Potsdam, casting the only no vote. James A. Bunstone, D-Potsdam, was absent. The largest portion of the budget $69.1 million is for social services.
Im concerned about the level of cuts and level of spending, Mr. Parker said. We didnt necessarily save money or cut money; we just shifted it into other places.
No one spoke during the public hearing preceding the special meeting.
Several lawmakers, however praised the budget, saying it accomplishes their goal of reducing the property tax levy by at least 14 percent. The tax levy is the amount of revenue collected from county property owners.
The property tax cut was outlined in a five-year financial plan that was used to win support for the 1 percentage point increase in the county sales tax that takes effect Sunday.
The total state and county sales tax will be 8 percent.
The additional percentage point is expected to generate an additional $13 million in sales tax next year.
The 14.3 percent cut is something St. Lawrence County taxpayers should be rejoicing about, said Legislator Frederick S. Morrill, D-DeKalb Junction. We promised that and were delivering that.
In the 2013 budget, the tax levy increased 14.4 percent, so next years cut essentially returns the levy to the 2012 level.
The county property tax rate will decrease from $9.89 per $1,000 of true property valuation to $8.36 per $1,000 next year, representing a 15.3 percent decrease.
This years budget included a $53.1 million tax levy, which will decrease to $45.5 million under the adopted 2014 budget.
During budget meetings earlier this month, some legislators criticized County Administrator Karen M. St. Hilaire for including $1.5 million in state tribal compact revenue in the budget because the payments might not come through. Lawmakers made some budget modifications, but left $800,000 of projected compact funds in the budget.
Legislator Kevin D. Acres, R-Madrid, said he would like to see better cooperation among legislators during the budget process.
Many of the issues were decided by eight or nine votes before the discussion was even had, Mr. Acres said. I hope we can work together better in the future.

Rate Dr. James R. Waisman
Dr. James R. Waisman's Ratings
Dr Waisman is very kind and caring, he takes the time to get to know the people he treats. He understands the fear, anger, paranoia and pain associated with a cancer diagnosis and trys to ease all those emotions. I have been going to Dr Waisman since 2003, when as a new monther I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. His nurse practicioner Lori is fantastic as well, she has been so supportive and kind over the past 9 years.

Dr Waisman stays abreast of research, explains everything thoroughly, encourages patient centered treatment & could not be more considerate. He is the only doctor I've seen tape the appt where he explains diagnosis & treatment options AND gives the patient a copy of the tape. He also listens to patient's requrpests & concerns & when he is not familiar with requested issue (eg whether BRCA testing is covered by insurance) he takes the time personally to find out.

Fantastic doctor. I saw many others before choosing Dr. Waisman and could not be happier with my choice. He is extremely intelligent, up on the latest research, is doing the latest research and is always light-years ahead of others in this field. I know I could not be in better hands. His bedside manner is fantastic. He takes all the time you need and answers emails within a few hours, even when out of town. You could not go wrong.

I have been seeing Dr for over 13 years he is the most kindest and wonderful Dr ever!! He takes all the time you need and never hurries you. I travel over 200 miles every time I see him and he is the best!

If there were more doctors like Dr. Waisman, there wouldn't have to be a website like this one. Not only is he knowledgable and keeps up with all of the newest research, but he is also the kindest, most caring doctor of any doctor I've ever been to. I look forward to my appointments with him because he always gives me a hug and makes me happy. I was treated for breast cancer in 2005, and I'm still doing well. I even flew my sister out here from Wisconsin when she had breast cancer to give a second opinion. She agreed that he was a fantastic doctor. He gives you as much time as you need, he will see you as often as you like. When you leave his appointment, you feel as though he has done everything humanly possible to help you. He doesn't let insurance companies get in his way, either. He works with you no matter how you will pay for it. I can't recommend him more highly. He is a great, great doctor, and a wonderful human being.

So why is an orgasm such a powerful motivator? It's not like we need it. We just want it. The power of the orgasm is so strong it motivates some married people into infidelity; some men to rape women; some Catholic priests to direct these urges toward molesting children; and it drives the prostitution and the pornography industries, including child pornography.
The orgasm just does not look like something that a divine being would create. It is way too powerful of a motivator. The three masters of suspicion, Nietzsche, Marx and Freud all argued respectively that the three motivators in life are Power, Money, and Sex.
So why did God make our sex drive so strong? Why didn't he make the orgasm less pleasurable? The pleasure of the orgasm is just too strong as it is. We all know this. With an evolutionary hypothesis this is what we'd expect to find, for our sex drive is good for the survival of our species. But under a theistic hypothesis it makes no sense.
If the pleasure of the orgasm was reduced there would be fewer sex crimes, and less infidelity. Or, the orgasm could've been created so as not to be pleasurable at all. God could've made the sex drive to be something of an instinct where we only want to do it when we want children, and then also created our desire to have children periodically. If this is what God had done instead, then with divine commands to populate the world, heterosexual people would only have sex for the purpose of bearing children in fulfillment of his commands, and that's it.
Moreover, the urge for sex seems to be too strong for most of us to overcome it. So why would God create us with this powerful urge and then prohibit it except under one set of conditions, a monogamous lifelong heterosexual married life? To masturbate certainly involves lust, does it not? But Jesus is found to prohibit lusting. What about sex before marriage? What's wrong with that? Most people in today's society, even Christians, have sex before marriage. What about people who will never be married? What about people who will spend the rest of their lives in prison? [I taught college classes for a women's correctional facility and many of them said that lesbian sex was the best sex they ever had! What's the aternative for them?] What about the few years between marriages for people who are divorced? And what best explains the fact that there are many homosexuals in our world? Why would God create this strong urge for them and also condemn such an activity? This too makes no sense on a theistic hypothesis.
Hell, I'll even bet all this talk about sex will cause some readers to do a search right now for a sex site, even Christians. Say it isn't so. Christian, you search for sex sites. Yet you feel guilty about it. The problem is that any prohibitions that make you feel guilty about this do not come from God.

A number of pictures made their way online of what looks to be the unlocked Samsung Galaxy S II white. The device has been one that does receive a lot of attention after becoming very popular among users. There have been a number of rumors to come out about the upcoming white version of the device, but we had not seen it as of yet. It will be interesting to see if the device in the leaked pictures is the same one we hard about just one day after the retailer of the device promised that the colorless white version of the following would go on sale on the 15th of August.
The pictures that made their way online show that the device will be completely white except for the Samsung logo on the back of the device. It is not currently clear if they are planning on releasing additional models of the device and the white-collar moving forward, but you can bet that that fact will be highly dependent upon the popularity of this device.
In all, the pictures of the upcoming phone appear to be very good and users are likely very excited about the possible update. A number of other phones including the Apple's unlocked iPhone 4 have considered releasing a white version of the phone, but this may be the first one that we see released on a wide scale like this. The phone has already drawn a lot of attention after the official update, and it will be interesting to see if the pictures that made their way online or of the announced device or if they are fakes that have made their way around. The Galaxy S II white version will probably be a very popular version among current users of the device and could potentially be a big hit for the company, which I am sure, what they are hoping for.

big balls…
a history…
1644: The Gottorp Globe the world's first modern planetarium, is completed in Germany. The hollow sphere, ten feet in diameter, is turned by water power; it has a map of the constellations on the interior and a map of the world on the outside. In 1714, it is given as a gift to Peter the Great but is destroyed by fire in 1747. The reconstructed globe, stolen by the Germans in World War II and recovered by US troops, now resides at the St. Petersburg Kunstkammer.
1850: Baron Haussmann and engineer Eugène Belgrand design the modern Paris sewer system.The sewers are regularly cleaned using large wooden spheres just smaller than the system's tubular tunnels. The buildup of water pressure behind the balls forces them through the tunnel network until they emerge somewhere downstream pushing a mass of filthy sludge.
1922: Meteorologist Lewis Fry Richardson, creator of the first dynamic model for weather prediction, proposes the creation of a "forecast factory" that would employ some 64,000 human computers sitting in tiers around the circumference of a giant globe. Each calculator would be responsible for solving differential equations related to the weather in his quadrant of the earth. From a pedestal in the center of the factory, a conductor would orchestrate this symphony of equations by shining a beam of light on areas of the globe where calculation was moving too fast or falling behind.
1930s: Workers from the United Fruit Company, clearing land in the Diquis Valley of Costa Rica, begin unearthing large numbers of almost perfectly round stone spheres. The largest of these apparently man-made balls is over six feet in diameter and weighs over sixteen tons. No one is sure exactly when or how they were made, or by whom, or for what reason, but according to University of Kansas archaeologist John Hoopes, "the balls were most likely made by reducing round boulders to a spherical shape through a combination of controlled fracture, pecking, and grinding." Today, virtually all of the spheres have been taken from their original locations. Many are now prized lawn ornaments across Costa Rica.
1934: William Beebe and Otis Barton descend more than half a mile beneath the surface of the ocean in the Bathysphere, a 4.75-foot steel ball fitted with three-inch—thick quartz windows. Their depth record stands for fourteen years.
1939: The centerpiece of the New York World's Fair is a 700-foot triangular spire called the Trylon and the 180-foot tall Perisphere, a giant ball housing a model of a Utopian garden city of the future called "Democracity." It is described in the official guide book as a "symbol of a perfectly integrated, futuristic metropolis pulsating with life and rhythm and music."
1960: NASA launches Echo 1, America's first communications satellite. The 100-foot mylar "satalloon" is coated in shiny, radio-reflective aluminum that allows it to passively bounce radio and television signals across the Atlantic.
1984: After a dispute with the Austrian government over the construction of his spherical house, Austrian artist Edwin Lipburger declares his property an independent nation and renames it the Republic of Kugelmugel. Lipburger is sentenced to jail for his refusal to pay taxes and insistence on printing his own stamps. However, a pardon from the Austrian president saves him from serving time.
1999: The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory begins operation more than a mile underground in an Ontario mine. The forty-foot sphere is filled with 1,000 tons of heavy water. Its purpose is to detect solar neutrinos.

Comments about Ruby 6V6 Matched Amp Tubes:
I've tried other tube manufacturers and I can not tell the difference in a clean amp sound with the Ruby brand. More expensive tubes do make a difference in multiple channels, but if you own a good amp that produces that "clean" sound look no further.

Comments about Ruby 6V6 Matched Amp Tubes:
Even though I received Ruby 6V6 tubes, they are not the tubes that are pictured. The tubes pictured are like the ones I was replacing with the black outer cover. The Ruby 6V6 tubes I received are the clear glass version. If you are not going to ship what is pictured, then let the customer know they are going to receive a different product.
Comments about Ruby 6V6 Matched Amp Tubes:
I have a 1967 Princeton Reverb and had to replace the Tung-Sol's that were worn out. I went to a few local dealers and none of them had the Tung-Sols and one of the shops recommened these as an alternative. I put them in the amp and was really disappointed. They distort earlier than the Tung-sols and seemed to have more bass to them. They might fit what other people are looking for but I am going to have to order a pair of Tung-sols.
Comments about Ruby 6V6 Matched Amp Tubes:
I put one of these babies in my Fender Champ 600 and wow! It helped this little amp come to life. It sounded ok out of the box but the tube swap made a huge difference. I also swapped the 6 in speaker for a Jensen 8 inch. Another big improvement. I have used other tubes and I think Ruby tubes, so far, are the best I have heard.

OMAHA, Neb. (Nov. 16) - The No. 8 Creighton men's soccer team begins play in the 2012 NCAA Men's Soccer Championship tournament this weekend with an NCAA Second Round match against No. 21 Washington slated for 5 p.m. Sunday at Morrison Stadium.
The Bluejays (15-3-2), the No. 12 national seed of the NCAA Tournament, received a first round bye as a top-16 seed. Washington (13-4-3) hosted an NCAA First Round match Thursday evening, defeating Air Force 1-0 in Seattle.

That followed a 22-year stint at North Carolina, where he guided the Tar Heels to 15 NCAA Tournaments, four College Cup appearances and the 2001 National Title. Bolowich enters his 17th NCAA Tournament with 23-13-5 record all-time.

Scouting the No. 8 Creighton Bluejays (15-3-2, 5-0-1 MVC)
Creighton battled wind gusts, rain and a battle-ready SIUE team last weekend as MVC Player of the Year Jose Gomez and MVC Defensive Player of the Year Andrew Ribeiro scored second-half goals to lead CU to the MVC Tournament title and an automatic NCAA tournament berth, 2-1, over SIU Edwardsville Nov. 11 in Peoria, Ill.
The title is Creighton's (15-3-2) second consecutive tournament crown, fifth in eight years, and 13th in the 22-year history of the event. The Bluejays have won 10 straight overall matches and improved to 11-1 this year in games decided by one goal.
Gomez scored his sixth goal of the year in the 69th minute off an assist from Brent Kallman, giving Creighton a 1-0 lead. SIUE tied it at 1-1 10 minutes later. The game-winning score came from Ribeiro on a penalty kick. Ribeiro's penalty shot was saved, but he followed his miss with a left-footed volley into the open net for the eventual game-winner. Creighton goalkeeper Jeff Gal made three saves, improving to 11-0-0 in net this season.
Both of Ribeiro's goals this season were game-winning scores against SIUE. He broke a scoreless tie with a header against SIUE in Omaha on Oct. 6 for his first score of the year. Each of Ribeiro's last six goals has been a game-winner including four winning tallies last season - two against SIUE.
The Bluejays and Washington have met once in the NCAA Tournament. UW ended the Jays' season 3-0 in an NCAA First Round match played in Seattle on Nov. 10, 2006. Since that contest, Creighton has won each of the last two meetings by a one-goal margin in 2007 (2-1 OT) and 2009 (1-0). CU leads the all-time series 5-2. The Bluejays are 2-0 against Washington in Omaha including the 2007 win and a 2-0 victory in 2000.
Entering the first week of the NCAA Tournament, Creighton ranks No. 8 nationally with a 0.50 shutout percentage (10-of-20 matches). The Jays also rank No. 15 in the country in save percentage (0.835) and stand at No. 16 nationally for team goals against average (0.77).
Senior co-captain Jose Gomez leads the team with 20 points this season, including six goals. Freshman Timo Pitter leads the Jays with eight goals and is second on the team with 19 points in 2012. Freshman goalkeeper Jeff Gal posted his 11th consecutive victory last Sunday. He leads the MVC in goals against average (0.54), save percentage (.870) and is tied for the lead with six shutouts heading into the NCAA Tournament.
Scouting the Washington Huskies (13-4-3, 7-1-2 Pac-12)
Washington won an NCAA First Round match Thursday evening by defeating Air Force 1-0 in Seattle. UW is making its 19th NCAA tournament appearance, but the first since 2007. After the victory over the Academy, the Huskies are 9-18 all-time in the NCAA tourney and seeking their first College Cup appearance.
Former Creighton head coach Jamie Clark and CU assistant coach Jeff Rowland lead Washington into Omaha getting UW back into the tournament after a five-year absence in their second season. Clark and Rowland led the Bluejays to a 13-5-2 record and an NCAA Second Round appearance while in Omaha, claiming the 2010 Missouri Valley Conference (MVC) Staff of the Year. The pair began coaching in Seattle in early 2011.
UW is ranked No. 19 in the nation in the RPI and No. 21 in the latest NSCAA poll. The Huskies are 3-2-2 in true road matches this season. UW scored one goal or less in 11 games this year. All but five of the Huskies' matches have been decided by one goal or ended in a tie. UW is 9-3 in one-goal contests and has ended out with a draw three times.
Like CU, Washington is led by its defense. UW ranks in a tie with the Jays at No. 8 in the country carrying a 0.50 shutout percentage (10-of-20 matches). The Huskies also rank No. 12 nationally for team goals against average (0.71).
Washington senior Dylan Tucker-Gangnes leads the Huskies with seven goals and 14 points in 2012. UW freshman James Moberg leads the team with six assists and is second on the squad with 12 points, including three scores.
Junior Spencer Richey has played every minute in net for the Huskies this season, making 62 saves. In 20 starts, he carries a 0.71 goals against average and a 0.805 save percentage.
The Last Meeting
SEATTLE (Sept. 29, 2009) - Ethan Finlay scored in the 25th minute and the 17th-ranked Creighton men's soccer team defeated Washington 1-0 at the Husky Fever Classic. The Bluejays improved to 2-1-1 on the year with their third shutout in four matches.
Finlay scored on CU's sixth shot of the opening half, placing the ball into the upper right 90 for his first goal of the year. Thomas Gjoesund, who earned his first start of the season, was credited with an assist on the score.
After out-shooting the Huskies (2-4-1) 7-2 in the opening half, the UW put on the pressure in the second half, with the final shot count in favor of the Bluejays 10-8.
Sophomore goalkeeper Brian Holt stopped one shot in his third shutout of the season.
NCAA Tournament History
Creighton is making its 20th NCAA Tournament appearance, all in the past 21 seasons (missed in 2009). CU is 26-16-5 all-time in the NCAA Tournament, including 11-4-0 at home and 10-1-0 at Morrison Stadium.
The Jays have now won at least one NCAA Tournament match in 14 of their 20 trips. The Jays are 16-6-4 in their last nine appearances, advancing to the quarterfinals in five of their last nine trips to the tourney.
CU appeared in 17 straight NCAA Tournaments between 1992 and 2008, before missing the 2009 NCAA event despite an RPI of 35. The Jays advanced to their fourth College Cup in program history last season.
NCAA at Morrison
Creighton is 10-1-0 in NCAA Tournament matches played at Morrison Stadium (since 2003). The Bluejays scored at least two goals in their first nine victories and outscored opponents 28-7 in the first 10 NCAA matches.
The Bluejays edged South Florida 1-0 in overtime during their last postseason contest in Morrison on Dec. 4, 2011 after blanking Northern Illinois 3-0 and slipping past UCSB 2-1 earlier in last year's tourney.
CU beat UMKC 6-0 in the 2003 first round, out-did nationally-ranked Northwestern 3-2 in the 2004 second round, blanked Lafayette 3-0 in the first round of 2005, topped fifth-ranked SMU 3-0 in the 2007 second round, before falling to Illinois-Chicago 1-0 to end their 2007 season. The Jays won a pair of 2-1 matches against nationally-ranked Tulsa and Connecticut in the 2008 postseason and crushed New Mexico 4-1 in the first round of the 2010 NCAA Tournament.
Against the Field
Creighton has played four matches against 2012 NCAA Tournament teams, going 0-3-1 against those squads. CU tied No. 5 seed Akron 1-1 in Omaha in the second game of the season on Aug. 31. The Jays' only three losses of the season came at the hands of tourney squads. CU fell 2-1 to then-No. 14 Old Dominion on Sept. 14 and dropped a 3-1 contest to No. 8 seed St. Louis on Sept. 22. Creighton later fell 2-0 at No. 11 seed Tulsa on Sept. 25. Since that setback, CU is 10-0-1 and enters the NCAA tournament on a 10-match win streak.
No Clear Home Field Advantage in 2012 NCAA First Round Matches
If Thursday's batch of 2012 NCAA First Round matches is any indication, playing on your home field might only be a slight advantage this postseason. Just over half (nine) of the 16 hosts of first-round matchups ended out victorious on Thursday. Washington was one of those nine winners on the evening.
Old Dominion, a 2012 CU opponent, did not fare as well. The Monarchs fell at home in Norfolk, Va., to UMBC 4-2 on penalty kicks after a 0-0 draw. The match was one of three decided by PK's Thursday as Winthrop beat SMU and South Florida defeated Florida Gulf Coast. In a night of close matches only three teams won by a margin of more than one goal - Brown, Coastal Carolina and Michigan.
Streaking Alert
Creighton's 10-game winning streak is the longest since last season when the Jays won 11 straight including three 2011 NCAA tournament wins. The 2000 CU team also won 11 straight in order to reach the NCAA title match.
CU entered the 2012 NCAA Tournament on a 10-game winning streak. It marks the second-longest streak entering the NCAA postseason in school history behind the 1993 team, which entered the tourney on a 19-game run.
CU vs. Top 25
Creighton is 0-1-1 against top 25 teams this year after a 1-1 tie against then-No.7 Akron on Aug. 31 and a 2-1 loss to then-No. 14 Old Dominion on Sept. 14.
The Bluejays are an impressive 20-3-2 against the NSCAA Top 25 at Morrison Stadium. The Jays are now 30-10-3 all-time against nationally ranked opponents at home. CU is 61-43-11 all-time against the Coaches' Top 25.
Cutting It Close
After a 2-1 victory over SIUE on Sunday in the MVC Final, the Jays are 11-1 in games decided by one goal in 2012. A 3-2 double overtime win over Drake in the MVC semifinals Nov. 9 marked CU's third overtime victory of the year. The Bluejays are undefeated at 3-0-2 in extra time this season.
Double the Titles
CU captured the MVC Tournament title in the same season as the MVC regular-season championship for the eighth time last weekend. The Jays have been double champs in 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 2006, 2008, 2011 and 2012.
MVC Tournament History
After Sunday's 2-1 title victory over SIUE, the Bluejays are 33-8-1 all-time MVC tournament record, the most tournament victories in league history. CU has won more tournament titles, 13, than all other MVC teams combined.
The Jays have appeared in 16 of the 22 MVC tournament championship matches, including six of the last eight. The Jays have lost in the quarterfinals once, the semifinals five times, in the championship match three times and won the other 13 tournaments in which they've appeared.
The Jays are the only team in league history with more than three tournament titles.
Men's Soccer Claims Multiple MVC Honors
The Creighton men's soccer team claimed three specialty awards and placed six student-athletes on Missouri Valley All-Conference teams, the league announced Nov. 8 at the Men's Soccer Championship banquet hosted by Bradley.
Senior co-captain Jose Gomez became the 11th player in program history to take home MVC Player of the Year Honors. The Bluejays have won the award on 12 occasions as Ethan Finlay earned the accolade for a second time last season.
Fellow senior co-captain Andrew Ribeiro claimed MVC Defensive Player of the Year recognition. It marks the ninth time that a CU player won claimed the award.

No Losses in Title Run
Creighton finished 2012 with a 5-0-1 mark in MVC play. The last time CU finished the conference season without a loss was in 2008 (4-0-1). The Jays have now finished atop the MVC without a loss on seven occasions (1992, 1993, 1995, 1996, 2007, 2008 and 2012).
Creighton captured its 12th MVC regular-season title this year marking its third straight crown and its sixth in the last seven years. The title also gives head coach Elmar Bolowich back-to-back-to-back regular-season titles (after winning the ACC at North Carolina in 2010).
Dominant Defense Ties MVC Goals Allowed Record
With one goal allowed in conference play this year Creighton's shutout defense tied the MVC team record for the fewest goals allowed in a Valley season set last year by CU.
The 2012 Jays remained ahead of three teams, including CU's 1995 squad, who shared the previous all-time low record of two goals allowed in a conference season prior to 2011.
CU logged 12 consecutive shutouts of MVC opponents from Oct. 12, 2011 through Nov. 3, 2012. The Bluejays' defensive shutout streak ended after a total of 1,293 minutes.
Clean Sheets

The 2002 College Cup also posted six 1-0 victories. Head coach Elmar Bolowich is 14-2 at CU in matches that end 1-0 and is 27-4 over the past four years.
Pitter Patter
Freshman Timo Pitter continues to rapidly tap the ball past opposing goalkeepers this season. His opening score at Evansville (11/3) was his team-leading eighth of the season. His total ranks second in the MVC. Pitter's eight scores are the most by any CU freshman since Byron Dacy tapped in nine goals in 2005.

Alex Bolowich of the Creighton men's soccer team was selected Missouri Valley Conference Scholar-Athlete of the Week for his performance during the period of Aug. 27-Sept. 2.
A sophomore from Chapel Hill, N.C., Bolowich was named to the Ameritas Classic Championship All-Tournament team, helping the Jays to a 1-1 draw with No. 7 Akron (8/31) and a 3-0 win over Rutgers (9/2).
Bolowich, who has a 3.43 cumulative grade point average in communications, allowed one goal in 200 combined minutes on the week. He held Akron to just one goal on 15 shots, despite the Zips being one of the top scoring teams in the NCAA over the past three seasons.
