  • By Austin Siegel In the early morning hours of October 12, Xander Mueller got on a plane at Baltimore/Washington International Airport with an unfamiliar feeling. Northwestern’s do-everything senior linebacker has won bowl games and rivalry trophies in his time as a Wildcat, but until a 37-10 victory over Maryland last month, Mueller had never experienced a flight back to Chicago after a victory on the road.

Inside the Walter Athletic Center last month, caution tape, a smoke machine, and the sound of cheering made the weight room feel like a game day as Northwestern Football hosted their […]

  • By Austin Siegel One of the best center fielders in Chicago walks past Wrigley Field all the time. Sometimes, when the Cubs are at home, the noise of the crowd carries down Addison Street towards the North Side Housing and Support Shelter, where Northwestern Softball’s Ayana Lindsey volunteers with Chicago HOPES for Kids, an organization that provides after-school programming to students experiencing homelessness in Chicago.
