Lacrosse Redmen roll past Gee Gees into CUFLA semifinals

by Mayaz Alam on

More in a:

The goal for the Redmen lacrosse team this year is simple: Win the Baggataway Cup for the second time in program history. Following a dominant 16-5 victory over the Ottawa Gee Gees on Saturday in the divisional playoff, they are well on their way to achieving that goal.

The Redmen were the only team in the CUFLA to have an undefeated regular season this year, and it was clear why on Saturday night. The combination of slick passing, precise shooting, and a relentless wave of fresh legs wore the Gee Gees out over the course of the game. Junior attackman Spencer Bromley led the way with four goals and three assists, while seniors Anders Bjella and Jake Gutman both had hat tricks. Gutman came off the bench to score three goals on three shots in the fourth quarter. In total, McGill had 12 different players score a point, a testament to the team’s deep roster.

“Depth has been a real advantage [this year],” Redmen Head Coach Tim Murdoch said. “We recruit really well and we have one of the larger rosters in the league. We have a lot of confidence in all of our players up and down the roster.”

Despite the wide margin of victory, McGill was down 2-1 until the last few minutes of the first quarter. Then Bromley took over the game. He scored an unassisted goal to tie up the score. A minute later freshman Max Murdoch assisted Bromley on another goal. To cap off the quarter, Bromley found sophomore Goose Bolton who then sniped a shot past Ottawa goaltender Mike Webster. In the span of six minutes the momentum swung clearly in favour of the Redmen.

“We work as a team as an offensive unit and Spencer is our top finisher,” Murdoch said. “I think [his success] was more a symbol of the fact that our offense is clicking well when he was getting close to the net and he was doing his job.”

Next weekend McGill travels to Bishop’s University for the semifinals of the Baggataway Cup. They will play the winner of the quarter-final between the Brock Badgers and the Trent Excalibur on Saturday at 4 p.m. Look for the Redmen to keep on rolling, regardless of who their opponent is, as they attempt to bring home the Baggataway Cup.

“Just playing as we know we can,” Murdoch said. “Consistency, staying healthy this week, and most importantly staying positive through the weekend.”

Quotable

“We have a lot of respect for Trent, they’ve typically played us very close [….] They’re scrappy and they fight hard. Brock will be the favoured team […] so we’re concentrating most of our scouting efforts on [them] because we haven’t played them since 2012.” – Murdoch on potential semifinal opponents.

Moment of the game

Bromley’s unassisted goal with 5:50 left in the first quarter helped turn the tide for the Redmen.

Fall team previews: Martlet and Redmen Basketball

MARTLET BASKETBALL

The Martlets finished their 2014-2015 campaign with a silver medal and a near perfect 15-1 RSEQ record. With nine of the team’s 14 players returning, an undefeated regular season and a CIS National Championship are certainly not out of the question. In their four pre-season CIS games this year, the Martlets are a perfect 4-0, outscoring their opponents by 18 points per game. While their defence and rebounding has remained stout so far this year, they’ve continued to struggle with turnovers, an issue that plagued the team last year. If Coach Ryan Thorne can tighten up the ball-handling and passing, the sky’s the limit for this team.

REDMEN BASKETBALL

Last season was a disappointment for the Redmen. After consecutive RSEQ Championships, the Redmen watched as the Bishop’s Gaiters hoisted the 2014-2015 title. This season, McGill looks poised to bounce back. The Redmen are 6-1 in their seven pre-season games this year, including a weekend victory in the nation’s capital over the No. 2 ranked Ottawa Gee-Gees.

“This weekend showed us that we’re among the best programs in the country,” junior forward Michael Peterkin said. “We have the ability do something very special this season.”

With their core remaining almost entirely intact for another season, the Redmen look poised to finally prove they’re not just a big fish in the RSEQ pond, but also a force to be reckoned with on the national stage. Certainly anything less than an RSEQ championship and a CIS playoff berth will be seen as a failure for McGill.

What’s new on Netflix

by Christopher Lutes on

More in a:

The combination of Netflix’s vast selection and terrible search capability makes it easy to forget the titles that aren’t at the top of the page. To rectify, here are five titles that have been added recently, or will be soon.

With Bob and David (Premieres November 13th)

In many ways, HBO’s Mr. Show with Bob and David (1995-1998) created the modern world of sketch comedy. It introduced many now household names in comedy to the world (think David Cross, Bob Odenkirk, and Jack Black), and served as a surreal alternative to the more buttoned-down Saturday Night Live. Now, 20 years after it premiered, it’s back in a new form on Netflix, with the entire cast returning. It might be difficult for the show to recapture its manic energy and highly specific point of view, but the nostalgia factor alone makes it worth it.

John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid (Premieres November 13th)

John Mulaney is one of the best stand-up comedians working today, which is why it was a complete mystery that his sitcom, Mulaney was so terrible. Now that it’s been cancelled, Mulaney is once again able to focus on what he does best with a new hour of stand-up full of his unique blend of straightlaced observations and absurdist tangents. The title suggests that he’s aware of the creative failure of his past endeavour, and is willing to move past it. Hopefully he can.

Marvel’s Jessica Jones (Premieres November 20th)

After Marvel’s Daredevil premiered in the spring, this is the second Netflix-Marvel team-up to be released this year. Starring the always-great Krysten Ritter as the titular character, the show follows her, an ex-superhero and current private detective as she tries help citizens and evade her traumatizing past. If the source material is to be believed, expect a grittier, more morally ambiguous version of the traditional superhero story, that places a higher premium on pathos and character than special effects.

Tu Dors Nicole (Now streaming)

Harken back to the lazy days of summer with /Tu Dors Nicole/, a new French-Canadian film. Following Nicole, a recent university graduate delaying entering the ‘real world’ by house sitting for the summer in her hometown. The film is a triumph of tone, perfectly capturing the quietness and stillness of walking around a small town at night. There’s not much of a conventional narrative to speak of—instead the film deals in small anecdotes and snapshots to hint at the sadness and longing that live in the title character.

The End of the Tour (Now streaming)

The End of the Tour follows a few days in the life of landmark writer David Foster Wallace (Jason Segel), as he tours the midwest with David Lipsky (Jesse Eisenberg), an interviewer from Rolling Stone magazine. The pair spend nearly all of their time talking as they drive through the frozen countryside, alternately revealing their insecurities and intellectually sizing each other up. As Wallace, Segel gives a nuanced, human performance, turning a role that could have devolved into caricature into something special instead.

AUS forum on cultural appropriation discusses insensitive Halloween costumes

by Josh Dimakakos on

More in a:

On Friday, Oct. 29, the Arts Undergraduate Society (AUS) held a forum in the Arts Lounge on the topic of cultural appropriation in Halloween costumes. Led by AUS Vice-President (VP) External Becky Goldberg, as well as Equity Commissioners Kelsa Ferguson and Nicole Kim, the forum aimed to shed light on many elements surrounding cultural appropriation, including why it happens, how it happens, and what those involved in it can do to try to understand and reduce it.

“The biggest issue has been the lack of cultural sensitivity people display at Halloween, and the tendency for people to act on predetermined assumptions and stereotypes of marginalized identities for the sake of celebration,” Kim said.

The event began with a discussion on the differences between cultural appropriation, cultural exchange, and cultural imposition.

“Cultural appropriation is defined as taking elements of a culture that is not your own, and using them without understanding or respect for their value in the original culture,” Kim explained.

According to Kim, the concept of cultural exchange is more difficult to define.

“For something to be [a] true cultural exchange, there has to be an element of mutual understanding, equality and respect,” she said.

Cultural imposition is defined as the tendency of a person or group to impose their values and behavious onto other persons.

The forum continued with a showing of a video by Amandla Stenberg, a 17-year-old actress best known for her portrayal of Rue in the Hunger Games films,  titled Don’t Cash Crop My Corn Rows: A Crash Discourse on Black Culture. Stenberg explains in the video the harm that can come from cultural appropriation, using the example of the corn row hairstyle.

“Hair has always been an essential component of black culture,” Stenberg said. “Corn rows are a really functional way of keeping black textured hair unknotted and neat [….] Braids and corn rows are not merely stylistic.”

Stenberg explained that celebrities like Kylie Jenner wearing corn rows is cultural appropriation because it disregards  their original purpose and treats them as something shallow.

The forum then moved onto a discussion of Halloween costumes, focusing significantly on costumes that misrepresent aboriginal cultures. The discussion revolved around topics like  how one would approach a six-year-old child wearing a Pocahontas costume to explain that it is offensive and damaging.

According to Alex Lavkulik, U4 Education, a lack of education surrounding cultural sensitivity is responsible for ppropriation in Halloween costumes.

“Maybe it’s not as clear or obvious to other people, but dressing up as a Native American trivializes their culture, and is equally offensive as dressing up as someone of another race,” Lavkulik said.

The discussion closed with an explanation of how to determine if a costume is culturally appropriative. AUS VP Social Christine Koppenaal,  outlined criteria that should be met to determine if a costume is culturally appropriative or not.

“Does your costume: A. Mock or condescend historically oppressed people and/or cultures; B. Include painting one’s face to match the skin colour of a specific person/people; C. Incorporate sanctified objects [or] clothing of others’ cultures, [or] D. Caricature oppressive, historical and/or current conditions of marginalized groups or persons in a way that may serve to trivialize them,” Koppenaal said.

If an individual answers “yes” to any of these questions, the AUS reccomends that the costume not be worn.

According to Kim, the forum reflected an increased awareness of cultural appropriation at McGill.

“Obviously, there is always more progress to be made, but McGill’s student body has been effective in holding each other accountable and reducing the relative ‘cool factor’ of dressing up in culturally appropriative ways,” Kim said.

Album Review: American Man – The Yawpers

by Jack Neal on

More in a:

In the spring of 2011, Bruce Springsteen released Wrecking Ball; an ode to Americana and a critique of the capitalistic society that America had become. “No cannonball did fly / No rifles cut us down / But just as sure as the hand of God / They brought death to my hometown,” he cried. Exactly what it means these days to be ‘American’ is an intriguing question; and it’s one that The Yawpers—a Colorado-based rock band—attempt to delve into on their new album.

Aptly titled American Man, this album is, in many ways, reflective of Springsteen’s aforementioned 2011 work, boasting lyrics that echo his sentiment—“The modern world has got me up on a wire / They call it living but I’m hardly livin’ at all.”

The album delves into the underlying human aspect of the flip side of the American dream, but it’s not a cry against capitalists. Instead, the Yawpers turn to the more philosophical and personal struggles of everyday American life: The expansion of cities, the contradictions of religion, and the social norms society revolves around.

The sound is undeniably American—the blues-rock influences are the most evident—but there’s also some tinges of Mumford & Sons folkyness in there too. The opening track, “Doing It Right,” boasts a guitar riff reminiscent of The Black Keys’ “Lonely Boy,” whilst third track, “Burdens,” tells tales of small-town struggles: “Life in this town isn’t as easy as it seems / It eats up your heart and spits away your dreams.”

The album begins to go south somewhere between the point at which “9 to 5” becomes “Walter,” which leads into the frequently-terrible “Kiss It.” And, to put it simply, the fifth song, “Deacon Brodie” is simply unlistenable with its haphazard arrangement and lyrics that verge on the ridiculous. Nevertheless, it’s impossible to deny the album’s concept, and it’s the stunning title track that proves to be the (all-too-early) highlight. This Sun Kil Moon-esque masterpiece encompasses in two lines what the album fails to convey in its entirety: “I’ve never been the type to go downtown / There’s too much colour and too much sound / If father could have seen this he would have burnt it all down.” It’s sad, and longing, reminiscing on a time that used to be. But it’s also knowingly contradictory: “Raise the flag / Oh isn’t she grand? / I salute her virtues / With blood on my hands,” brilliantly achieving the sense of confusion-tinged patriotism that the band only claws at throughout much of the other songs.

It seems the album’s aforementioned standout reflects the reality of the new American dream well: One bright light shining above a sea of dark, uninspired, and monotonous filler.

SUS executives discuss upcoming events at General Council

by James MacFarlane on

More in a:

On Oct. 28, executives from the Science Undergraduate Society (SUS) held a General Council (GC), which saw the presentation of executive reports on the progress of their portfolios.

SUS Vice-President (VP) Finance Sibat Anam gave a report on the Burnside Hall basement renovations in place of President Jeremy Goh, who was unable to attend the meeting. The proposed renovation aims to change the space of Burnside’s basement to be more student friendly, with improved lighting and study spaces. A crowdfunding page set up by the Faculty of Science and Interfaculty of Arts and Science has raised $2,280 thus far, 38 per cent of the $6, 000 goal.

“[Jeremy is] currently working on the Burnside [Hall] Renovation Committee, [but] they’re just working through a lot of hoops and it’s backed up [behind other construction projects on campus],” Anam said. “He met with McGill Spaces and Campus Planning to […] draft a proposal as soon as possible.”

VP Internal Charbel El-Kefraoui reported on the status of Hype Night ticket sales. The event, which is part of the Science Games, has seen the highest interest from students of recent years.

“We still have 50 tickets on sale, but I think we’re going to increase that number” El-Kefraoui said.

El-Kefraoui then briefly discussed the annual 5-on-5 soccer tournament that will take place on Saturday, Nov. 14 at Tomlinson Fieldhouse as part of the SUS’ Social SUStainability week.

“We have room for [teams from] eight departments, “ said El-Kefraoui. “The [top] three teams will get to donate money to a charity [of their choice].”

El-Kefraoui additionally announced that bonus points for Science Games, a three-day competition between science departments held in January, will be awarded to participants of the soccer tournament.

“This is basically going to be the biggest science games so far,” said El-Kefraoui.

VP External Mary Helmer-Smith announced that she recently secured Montreal nonprofit Share the Warmth to be the recipient of funds raised through SUStainability Week. Share the Warmth is a community group that works to fight hunger and poverty. According to Helmer-Smith, the week will consist of a series of fundraising events organized by SUS.

“The larger events that we have are a speaker event on Tuesday […] and then on the Thursday night we’re going to do a talent show,” said Helmer-Smith.

In this week's edition of the week that was for McGill Athletics the McGill Tribune Sports team looks at Emilie Matte de Grasse and Spencer Bromley, our athletes-of-the-week;  Martlet hockey and Martlet volleyball; as well as our weekly edition of by the numbers.

Beyond the box score

Martlet Hockey

The Martlet hockey team (2-1-0) lost 2-0 against the Ottawa Gee-Gees in the nation’s capital on Friday. The Gee-Gees goaltender saved a stunning 37 shots and Ottawa took advantage of a penalty against McGill just two minutes into the game to score on their power play. McGill, despite fore-checking relentlessly and sending waves of pressure on the Ottawa goal, could not find the back of the net. McGill will need to tighten up their play as they face the No. 3 ranked Montreal Carabins and then the Concordia Stingers next week at McConnell Arena on Nov. 7 and 8 respectively.

Martlet Volleyball

The Martlet volleyball team (5-0) remained undefeated on the season with a convincing victory over UQÀM in three straight sets on Saturday. Sophomore power hitter Emilie Matte de Grasse led the way with 15 kills, and veteran setter Yasmeen Dawoodjee contributed 29 assists. After fighting off a furious rally to take the first set 25-23, McGill cruised in the second set (25-15) and were able to finish off the Citadins with ease. The Martlets will try to improve to 6-0 to start the season as they take on Laval next Friday.

Tribune Athletes-of-the-Week

Emilie Matte de Grasse

Power Hitter, Martlet Volleyball

Sophomore – Education

Emilie Matte de Grasse helped McGill continue their dominant start to the 2015-2016 regular season with a 17 point burst against UQAM in Love Competition Hall this weekend. McGill won 3-0 and are second in the RSEQ standings with an unbeaten 5-0 record—McGill still have a game in hand over first placed Montreal. The sophomore also had 15 kills, an ace, nine digs, and two assisted blocks in a truly all-round performance. The Martlet volleyball team are ranked fourth in the nation on the back of their dominant performances this season.

Album Review: Divers – Joanna Newsom

by Maya Reid on

More in a:

In a more-than-crowded music industry, Joanna Newsom has cemented herself as a truly unique force of art with the release of her fourth album, Divers. In this latest offering from the California-native, she refines her unusual, soaring sound to produce a more accessible dynamic; however, the record is still packed with haunting complexities.

As a harpist and ornate lyricist, Newsom has consistently pushed conceptual and production boundaries in folk music. Divers explores the transcendence of love and loss over space and time. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, she said the album in part examines "the question of what's available to us as part of the human experience that isn't subject to the sovereignty of time."

Although Newsom is no stranger to brilliant lyrical storytelling, /Divers/ is her most controlled and impressive vocal performance to date. Unlike the jarring or jumpy vocal style that characterized her early career, such as in The Milk-Eyed Mender, this new album offers more resonant notes and precise sounds.

Her versatility is on full display as rich orchestral pieces ghost between simplistic, whimsical tracks. On “Anecdotes,” the first song on the album, layers of strings and woodwinds swell to evoke a sense of ebb and flow. This complements the lyrics by discussing the difficulty of controlling the direction of time. She sings, “And time, in our camp, is moving / As you'd anticipate it to / But what is this sample proving? / Anecdotes cannot say what time may do.”

As the compositions blend into each other seamlessly, Newsom provides continuity, harmony, and unconventional depth whilst providing heavily thought-provoking and philosophical lyrics. The listener’s ability to get lost in the endless layers of emotional intimacy is what ultimately makes Divers a success.

Standout tracks:

"Anecdotes," "Leaving the City," "Time, As a Symptom"

Most Memorable Lyrics:

"There's old trick played/ When the light and the wine conspire/ To make me think I'm fine/ I'm not, but I have got half a mind/ To maybe get there" – from "The Things I Say"

Football: Laval light up McGill 57-10

by Zikomo Smith on

McGill Redmen

Laval Rouge et Or
57

McGill (3-5-0) ran into the wrath of No. 3 ranked Laval (7-1-0) in the final regular season game of the RSEQ season on Saturday at Molson Stadium, losing 57-10.

Laval outmatched and outmuscled McGill in all phases of the game. The Rouge et Or were stunning to watch; their cornerbacks were calm and moved fluidly, picking off McGill’s rookie quarterback Nicolas English twice over the course of the game, and their pass rush was athletic and disciplined. Laval pounded McGill throughout the game on offence, accruing seven touchdowns and over 600 yards, scoring at least 11 points in each quarter.

“They are very talented, they execute on all facets of the game,” Head Coach Ron Hilaire said.  “If you are not playing your perfect game against them they will make you pay for it on every down. They are a good team, but we needed to play better.”

One Redmen standout was running back Luis Guimont-Mota, who was always fighting for extra yards and pulled off some big runs, including an incisive 34-yarder. His final stat line was one touchdown and 72 yards on 12 rushes. It was not uncommon to see him take on three Laval defenders at a time.

“[Guimont-Mota] is a hard runner,” Hilaire said. “When you play a physical team like that you have to run the ball hard and that’s exactly what he did.”

Wide receiver Kevin Etienne was also effective, catching the ball on shorter routes and consistently gaining yards after the catch. He had 71 yards on six receptions for the day

Laval’s dual-threat quarterback Hugo Richard, however, dominated the home team—he had two touchdowns in the air and on the ground respectively and completed an incredible 84 per cent of his passes. McGill tackled poorly and struggled to build up defensive momentum. In the third quarter, Redmen defensive end Devon Stewart sacked Richard for a nine-yard loss at the McGill 42 yard line, only to see Richard rush 10 yards on the next down to put Laval back in field goal range. Laval missed the ensuing kick, but the play was emblematic of McGill’s struggles on defense.

“The reality is, we took some of [Richard’s] reads away,” Hilaire explained. “We just needed to tackle better.”

With a 3-5-0 record, McGill’s improved 2015 season has come to a sobering end. This season saw the breakout of English, excellent play from the wide receiver corps and improved discipline on defense. The Redmen, however, know they will have to work hard to match RSEQ powerhouses such as Laval.

Quotable

“We have to work harder. We made a gigantic step this year […] we need to get a bit better at the defensive back position and after that it’s just [about] getting better.” –Hilaire on McGill’s areas for improvement.

Play of the game

McGill place kicker Justin lavallee kicked a 35 yard field goal, his longest field of the season to give the Redmen a very short lived lead six minutes into the first quarter.

Hockey: Pompei saves the day, Redmen take first place

Mathieu Pompei put on a clinic over the weekend, scoring seven points over two games to power McGill (7-1-0) past the Lakehead Thunderwolves (0-6-0), and stretch the team’s winning streak to four. Unsatisfied with his two goal performance in Friday’s 5-1 win, the senior centre netted a hat-trick in Saturday’s 8-3 victory, and added an assist for good measure.

Up 3-0 going into the second period, it looked like McGill was on its way to another easy two points against the hapless Thunderwolves. Three minutes into the frame, sophomore blueliner Alex Chenevert made it 4-0 on a quick feed from junior winger Pietro Antonelli.

Maybe it was the prospect of heading back to Thunder Bay without a win on the season, but Lakehead came out of a timeout midway through the second period with an energy that caught the Redmen off guard. Thunderwolves’ forward Cody Alcock got his team on the board with a slap shot from the point, and 30 seconds later, Alcock broke through the Redmen defence for another goal. Not even five minutes after the fateful time-out, the lead was down to 4-3. The Redmen defence that looked so impenetrable in the first period was now in disarray. All of a sudden, Lakehead was Ivan Drago, standing over the battered body of Apollo Creed.

“[We lost] our focus,” Head Coach Kelly Nobes said. “We got loose, and we got away from our structure. When we play with structure, we play the right way. When we get away from that like [we] did in the second, stuff like that happens.”

With momentum completely against the Redmen, it looked like Lakehead would be able to snatch their first victory out of the jaws of defeat. But when McGill needed it most, Pompei stepped up to pick his team up off the mat. Skating into the Thunderwolves’ zone with Pompei, senior David Rose tried to wrap the puck around the back of the Lakehead net to fellow winger Daniel Milne. Instead, the puck jumped off the glass and landed right in front of Pompei, who tapped it into the wide open crease. Thirty seconds later, Pompei went full Rocky, scoring on an assist from Milne to complete his hat-trick and make it a comfortable 6-3 lead.

“He’s a skilled offensive guy,” Nobes said of Pompei. “He got some chances tonight, and he executed.”

The 5’7”, 167 pound centre isn’t the biggest guy on the team, but in his final year at McGill, Pompei has been huge for the Redmen as the leader of the team’s top offensive line along with Rose and Milne.

“We’ve been trying to find chemistry with our group,” Nobes said. “Rose and Pompei have turned the corner in the last couple weeks and really come on strong for us and provided a […] spark for us along with Milne […] so it’s been a good line for us.”

The Redmen will try to keep the streak alive next weekend as they head to Ontario to take on Ryerson (5-2-0) and Toronto (2-4-1).

Quotable

“We’re getting better all the time; we’re learning lessons every game. [But] we still have a long way to go if we want to win at the end of the year.” – Nobes on the team’s improvement

Moment of the Game

The two teams had to be separated after frustration boiled over for Lakehead as junior Redmen goalie Jacob Gervais-Chouinard smothered the puck on the goal line to kill a late rally.

The Pompei-Rose-Milne line racked up a combined 16 points over the weekend.
