San Jose State University's Event Center sure knows how to have a concert. After housing acts like Panic at the Disco and Weezer in the last two weeks, Saturday night's performers – Estelle, Gym Class Heroes, and The Roots - added to their busy gymnasium.

I arrived at the Event Center around 6 p.m. already seeing yards of people lining up, I make my way to will call. Getting my tickets rather easily and quickly, I decided to kill some time before the show instead of lining up on that surprisingly cold night. By 7 p.m. the lines disappeared and the caution tape on the staircases are ripped apart, so my guest and I climbed up to the venue.

Logan has been one big play away from having a better record than the 2-4 season they've got going, and on Friday night, they got numerous big plays as they routed American (0-6), 45-0. Logan put on a good show as the stands filled with a number of students and alumni.

Logan started the night off with a big play, as Brandon Arnold forced a fumble on the opening kick off and returned it for a touchdown. This was only the beginning to Arnold's great night, as on the next possession he rumbled into end zone for his second touchdown, to put Logan up 14-0.

Statement from the Board President
The Board of Education is making progress in the selection process for a new Superintendent; however, we will have no announcement this week. We hope to have an announcement Oct. 31. We appreciate the patience of the New Haven community as we make a decision that is so critical to the education of our children.
