The International Student Organization’s World Cup event kicked off its annual Extravaganza Week with a soccer tournament that brought students together from across the globe.

Those participating in the game formed teams based on global regions they identified with — a way to simulate World Cup competitors — said event lead Areeb Atheeque ’25, who was on the winning team. After a fierce competition, Asia 1 came out on top.

“It’s changed my life for the better,” said James Pfaff ’27 of playing soccer with an international community.

Pfaff played for North America 1, but he has lived in England, Switzerland and Singapore. He described soccer as a way to overcome language barriers.

“Nearly everybody in the world can play,” Pfaff said. “Soccer uniquely allows you to be yourself regardless of language, culture.”

Carson Belaire ‘27 played for the Middle East team.

“We just lost, but I don’t feel bad about it, because I lost with my good friends and we put in a good fight,” Belaire said. He added that “feeling welcome” was one of the reasons he came out to play.

“It’s a worldwide sport that really connects everyone from every country,” Belaire said of soccer.

Other players echoed the same feeling about the sport.

“Most of them grew up playing soccer,” said Jessi Kleiber ‘27, who was a spectator. “It’s their football.”

“I’m glad I get to be a part of it,” she added.

Atheeque and Paolo Garcia ’27 spearheaded the event. Atheeque said he grew up playing soccer, but didn’t feel the club soccer group at Lafayette was well organized, so he built his own.

“We created a pickup group and the pickup group grew,” Atheeque said. “It eventually evolved into this.”

The president of the organization during the 2022-2023 academic year started Lafayette’s World Cup, according to Atheeque.

“If you like soccer, if you want to play soccer, just want to represent your country, or if you just want to come and watch a bunch of kids play, pull up, bring a flag,” Atheeque said.

Extravaganza Week also includes a poetry night, a lecture, a storytelling event, a fashion show, a food tasting and the grand finale: a talent show at the Williams Center for the Arts on Saturday at 6 p.m.

Arizona State Football Star Uses NIL to Honor Legend Pat Tillman on Memorial Day

As if star quarterback Sam Leavitt had any trouble winning over the Arizona State Sun Devils fan base before, his latest off-the-field move will have him in everyone’s good favor.

Broadcaster Blake Niemann for Fox 10 Phoenix shared that Leavitt was making a personal donation of $15,000 to the Pat Tillman Foundation. It was a very nice use of his NIL funds, giving back to one of the school’s most storied heroes.

It is no coincidence that this is taking place on Memorial Day weekend, with Leavitt choosing a great way to show his respect.

About Pat Tillman

Tillman played from 1994 to 1997 with the Sun Devils where he was an All-American and Defensive Player of the Year. He was taken in the seventh-round of the 1998 NFL draft by Arizona Cardinals.

Rather than signing a second contract with the Cardinals, he enlisted in the U.S. Army in 2022. He tragically died two years later and has been etched into the football history books since.

The foundation in his honor focuses on helping military veterans and their spouses through scholarships and leadership programs.

Leavitt’s generous donation will go a long way and further ingratiates himself as one of the program’s top players in recent history.

The 20-year-old enjoyed a breakout redshirt freshman year with 2,885 yards with 24 touchdowns to just six interceptions while completing 61.7% of his passes.

He also got it done on the ground when needed with 443 rushing yards and five more touchdowns. After the season, he was named the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year and was on the All-Big 12 second team.

Leavitt had transferred in as a three-star quarterback after spending one year with the Michigan State Spartans.

It likely would have worked out well for him to enter the transfer portal again after 2024, but he decided to stick it out with Kenny Dillingham at Arizona State.

Now he is projected to be a potential draft pick in 2026 if he can build upon what he showed last season.

On3Sports’ NIL Valuation rankings has him as the No. 11 highest-earning college athlete with $3 million. That would make him the eighth-highest in college football.

That level of stardom is unprecedented with the Sun Devils, but just goes to show how much Dillingham has changed the culture in just a couple of years.

After a surprise run through the Big 12 Championship to the College Football Playoff, Arizona State will be expected to be a top team again in 2026.
