The Associated Student Body announced Emily Wikle as 2014-2015 Miss Ole Miss Monday after last week’s run- off election. “I am the luckiest person in the world,” Wikle said after the results were announced. “I am so happy to be able to serve the university in this ca- pacity and pick a philanthro- py with Rob (Barber).” Wikle said she was very thankful for the overwhelm- ing support she received through the extended cam- paign process. “I am so blessed and life truly is good here at the uni- versity,” she said. “I could not have done it without friends, family and all my sisters.” Wikle won the title over op- ponent Ryan Henry who was disqualified after being found in violation of the ASB Code and Constitution. After a violations hearing held Sunday, the ASB Elec- tions Review Board voted 8-6 that campaign represen- tatives of Henry were found in violation of an ASB code that states, “Any attempt by a candidate or campaign rep- PHOTO BY: THOMAS GRANING SEE MISS OLE MISS PAGE 3 Emily Wikle reacts after being named Miss Ole Miss at the student union Monday.

sports SPORTS | 14 OCTOBER 2014 | THE DAILY MISSISSIPPIAN | PAGE 7 Cody Prewitt leading landshark defense to greatness DYLAN RUBINO [email protected]

One thing the Rebel defense has been known for this season is having the prowess and in- stincts of a “landshark.” The swarming to the ball when a defender sees it in sight and the fierce hitting that gives a team confidence is how the Rebel defense makes its name known. Senior safety Cody Prewitt is the embodiment of the Reb- el defense and the motor that makes the unit go. Prewitt has made a name for himself ever since he start- ed for the Rebels, but a strong statement was made Saturday against Texas A&M. Prewitt recorded seven tackles and in- tercepted sophomore Aggie quarterback Kenny Hill near the beginning of the second quarter and took it 75 yards for the defensive touchdown. It was the 11th interception for Prewitt in his career and his first for a touchdown. The “landshark” mentality is something the defense has been building on for years. Prewitt is the prime example of what the “landshark” is about and feels pride in it. “It’s the spirit of our defense.
