ASU Wrestling Wins 2020 Pac-12 Title

The Sun Devils took their 19th Pac-12 Wrestling Title this past weekend at the Maples Pavilion at Stanford University, performing an impressive feat of five individual titles. Sophomore Brandon Courtney took the 125lbs title, the first time ASU has taken a title at that weight class, beating out Stanford to secure his win and get his team the points they needed. At 157lbs, Freshman Jacori Teemer, who wrestled that day with a dislocated finger, took down another Stanford wrestler to earn his win. Junior Anthony Valencia got his victory at 174lbs, earning a well-executed technical fall to claim his third personal title. Sophomore Kordell Norfleet got his win at the 197lbs spot to get enough points for the Sun Devils to secure a team victory overall at the meet, but they were not done yet, as 5-year senior Tanner Hall got his well-deserved win at the Heavyweight/285lbs spot to conclude the meet for the Sun Devils.

Overall points for the meet: Arizona State 141.5, Stanford 122, CSU Bakersfield 99.5, Oregon State 92.5, Cal Poly 90, Little Rock 62.5.

Looking ahead of the conclusion of the conference title, the Sun Devils will start prepping for Nationals occurring in Minneapolis, Minnesota from March 19th to the 21st. Unfortunately, because of measures being taken to ensure the overall health of the public and the teams isn't put into jeopardy by the coronavirus, the NCAA president, Mark Emmert, has declared that all collegiate sporting events happening this month, fans will not be allowed to attend.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
