Letter to the Editor: Rauner is the man for the job in Illinois

On Tuesday, Nov. 4, Illinois politics could change forever, should voters decide to cast ballots for Bruce Rauner. As a student, you are one step away from “real life,” and should thus care about how well your state is doing. Issues like taxes, corruption, jobs, spending, pensions, education and crime will all be things that impact your daily life, and when it comes to combat- ting those problems, Rauner is the man for the job. His campaign is largely about increas- ing jobs throughout the state, lowering taxes, improving education, and setting term limits on politicians. Bruce wants to create more job JOHN WARD | THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS opportunities for the people of Illinois because the unemployment rate is the lowest in the Midwest and incomes have fallen.

Allie Hueston’s 15 kills, while not enough for a win Friday night, led the Eastern volleyball team to its first sweep in Ohio Valley Conference play, with a win over Tennessee-Martin on Saturday in Lantz Arena. The freshman from Anderson, Ind., totaled 15 kills in both of the weekend’s matches, which were also her season and career high in that category. Along with those 15 kills on Saturday, she also tallied three digs and three blocks for the three-set sweep against the Sky- hawks. “After the first set I think we just stuck with our original game plan because we did well with it earlier,” Hueston said. “We just focused on their outsides and honored their middles, but kept our focus on Emily Keaton.” Keaton led the Skyhawks with 14 kills, along with eight digs and two blocks. Hueston’s former club team- mate, Madison Bergren of Ten- nessee-Martin, started at setter JASON HOWELL | THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS for the Skyhawks and finished Freshman middle hitter Allie Hueston and freshman outside hitter Maria Brown attempt a block during a match against Southeast Missouri on Friday in with 25 assists, along with six Lantz Arena.

Eastern coach Kim Dameron wanted the Panthers to be more balanced offensively heading into their Saturday game at Tennessee Tech. The Panthers were as balanced as can be, rushing for 301 yards and throwing for 297 yards in their 41-10 win against the Gold- en Eagles at Tucker Stadium in Cookeville, Tenn. Adam Drake had a season-high three touchdown receptions, as he had six catches for 153 yards, including a career-long 90-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter. Eastern quarterback Jalen Whitlow had a season-high four touchdown passes, but gave all the credit to his weapons. “Receivers made awesome plays,” Whitlow said. Leading 24-3 in the third quarter, Eastern took over at its own 13-yard line for its first posses- sion of the second half. Follow- ing a loss of three yards on first down, Whitlow threw a pass to Drake, who had man-coverage on JASON HOWELL | THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS the outside.
