LaRose discusses AD role By Bryan Roy ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The master front office in McKale Center still sits vacant, unsettled and unlit. One month on the job, Kathleen ‘Rocky’ LaRose still hasn’t moved into her new suite. “Not yet,” said the interim athletic director. “They just painted the walls.” And that’s just what President Robert Shelton ordered: Fresh surroundings within the department. One month ago, Shelton opted not to renew the contract of 16-year athletic director

Student biology research presented

Jim Livengood, who turned 64 years old last year. Without citing specific reasoning for the transition, Shelton appointed LaRose to fill in while he conducts a national search. LaRose now juggles both her old job — handling the internal affairs within the athletic department — and her new one: the business side of operations. “The first thing I said when I came interim: We don’t want to miss a beat here,”said LaRose, a 31-year UA veteran. “We can’t (miss a beat) in this competitive business, we have to keep moving forward.” Work on LaRose’s biggest priority will begin

UA interim Athletic Director Kathleen ‘Rocky’ LaRose in her McKale Center office Thursday afternoon. LaRose sat down with the Daily Wildcat to discuss the state of Arizona Athletics — including financial situations, the next athletic director and the football stadium expansion.

next week after the Arizona Board of Regents formally finalizes Arizona Stadium’s north end zone expansion,the flagship project of Livengood’s athletic facility renovation plan. LaRose will unveil a new campaign intended to fund the expansion through private donations. “(Boosters) are the backbone of the athletic department as we continue to grow,”LaRose said. In an interview with the Daily Wildcat on Thursday afternoon, LaRose discussed the current state of Arizona Athletics as it awaits a new leader.

State finally pays schools

A WALK IN THE CLOUDS

By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT More than 100 undergraduate student researchers will present poster projects of their research at the Undergraduate Biology Research Program conference Saturday. The conference will be held at the Keating (BIO 5) building on the UA Health Sciences Center Campus, north of Speedway Boulevard, from 1-5 p.m. Established in 1988, the Undergraduate Biology Research Program provides paid research experience to undergraduate students by putting them to work in labs. A two-year Undergraduate Biology Research Program participant, Brittany Choate truly loves what the program does for students like her. Choate works with an environmental microbiology doctoral candidate filtering water to check for fatal pathogens in Arizona recreational waters due to climate change. “It’s been a really, really fun gig, and I’m just glad that I got the chance to do it,” she said. Students get the chance to be funded for lab work by the program and their backer, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. Students work hands-on in each laboratory. “They’re not just washing dishes and counting petri plates,” Choate said. “They actually get to run their own experiments and get hands-on experience with real-life lab work.” And these opportunities are open to undergrads in any major wanting to study biology. BRAVO! is the international research arm of Undergraduate Biology Research Program, said Kevin Keys, a math and linguistics major who studied biochromatics in skin pigmentation in Barcelona this past summer. “They funded me to do biology research even though I wasn’t a biology student,” Keys said. “The experience influenced me in my graduate applications … in statistics and biomathematics programs geared towards genetics, and I wouldn’t have known about it without UBRP.” At the conference, there will be alumni of the program from Brown University, University of Colorado, Denver and some from the UA, like Joyce Schroeder and Jessie Brown, who will be presenting along with the undergraduate members of the program. Giving a small introduction to their topic, the timeliness of their research and their findings, students- on a poster- present their work. “It’s a place where a bunch of UBRP students can present the research that they’ve been doing,”said Robert Gonzales, an undergraduate studying the faults of current Parkinson’s research and treatments. “It’s an open venue so people can walk around, look at the posters and get an idea of the research the person has been doing and interact with the person doing the actual research,”he said. The program is accepting applications until mid-March for summer research, which can be extended into the school year.

More than 20 days overdue, the state of Arizona has fulfilled its monthly financial obligation to all three public universities, education officials said Thursday. The $75 million owed to the schools since December was dispersed by the Arizona treasury at the end of the business day Wednesday, and January’s payment is expected within a few days, said Katie Paquet, associate executive director of public affairs and external relations for the Arizona Board of Regents. Johnny Cruz, UA’s director of communications, confirmed that the Budget Office received its roughly $30 million share from the state’s General Fund, though officials aren’t sure when to expect January’s check. The UA relied upon an uspecified amount of emergency reserves to maintain operations during the delay, which was the third in the last year. Cruz said this delay, announced in December, came as a surprise because previous ones were part of scheduled negotiations between Governor Jan Brewer and the Arizona Board of Regents. “The state is in really incredibly dire times,” said Christine Thompson, of the Arizona Board of Regents’ government affairs office.

Clouds and high winds gather around campus Thursday as a prelude to today’s forecast from the National Weather Service of rain and thunderstorms.

More DUI checkpoints come to Tucson By Alexandra Newman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Pima County Sheriff’s Department and Nogales Police Department recently accepted grants from the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety to help control drunk driving. Pima County received two grants, which total $181,000, and plans to use the money in a variety of ways, such as establishing DUI checkpoints throughout Pima County. UA Police Department Sgt. Juan Alvarez said DUI checkpoints follow a certain process and must stop a number of cars each night. “Once they stop a car, they still have to establish that the person is impaired … by the way they smell or are talking and action,”Alvarez said. Officers may lawfully make arrests of underage people even if they aren’t driving if they admit they are underage and the officer suspects they possess or have ingested alcohol.

Experts may have found bones of English princess LONDON — She was a beautiful English princess who married one of Europe’s most powerful monarchs and dazzled subjects with her charity and charm. Now an international team of scientists say they think they’ve found the body of Princess Eadgyth (pronounced Edith) — a 10th-century noblewoman who has been compared to Princess Diana. “She was a very, very popular person,” said Mark Horton, an archaeology professor at Bristol University in western England. “She was sort of the Diana of

her day if you like — pretty and full of good works.” Horton is one of a team of experts working to verify the identity of some bones found bundled in silk at Magdeburg Cathedral in Germany. Should the skeleton be positively identified as belonging to Eadgyth, it would be oldest remains of any English royal discovered so far. Experts say her closest competitors — the bones of various Saxon royals in Winchester Cathedral in southern England — are so hopelessly jumbled together that no

single person can be identified. “If (Eadgyth’s) skeleton is intact then, yes, as far as I’m aware, it would be the earliest identifiable remains from AngloSaxon England,” said Simon Keynes, a professor of Anglo-Saxon history at the University of Cambridge. The skeleton was uncovered as part of a wider research project into Magdeburg Cathedral, about 90 miles (150 kilometers) west of Berlin. The elaborate 16th-century monument in which the body was found was long thought to be empty.

John Edwards admits paternity; Elizabeth relieved RALEIGH, N.C. — Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards finally admitted Thursday he fathered a child during an affair before his second White House bid, dropping longstanding denials just ahead of a book by a former campaign aide who initially took the fall. Edwards released a statement John Edwards admitting paternity of the girl, Frances Quinn Hunter, who was born in 2008 to videographer Rielle Hunter as the result of an affair Edwards has already confessed to. “It was wrong for me to ever deny she was my daughter,” Edwards said, adding he was providing financial support for the child and mother.“I am Quinn’s father.” Elizabeth Edwards, who has been battling an incurable return of cancer since 2007, said in an interview with The Associated Press that “the whole family is relieved.” She declined to discuss the couple’s marital status and said she didn’t know where things will go from here. “If somebody has a crystal ball, they can let me know,” she said when asked what was next for her and John Edwards. The admission comes ahead of the Feb. 2 release of a book by former Edwards aide Andrew Young that is expected to describe how Edwards worked to hide his paternity with Young’s help. Young initially claimed he was the child’s father shortly before the 2008 presidential primary contests began. Word that Young was naming Edwards as the father first came when details of his book proposal were reported by The New York Times in September. Edwards’ lawyer at the time declined to comment. The child was born Feb. 27, 2008, indicating that she was conceived in the middle of 2007, several months after Hunter stopped working for Edwards. John and Elizabeth Edwards renewed their wedding vows in July of 2007 to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary. Hunter’s lawyer, Michael Critchley, said the admission is “good for everyone.” Critchley said Edwards’ statement amounted to a public acknowledgment of something that was known privately. He said Hunter did not have an immediate comment. It is not clear where she and the child are living. In an excerpt of an ABC News interview released Thursday, Young says that Edwards asked him to arrange a fake a paternity test. “Get a doctor to fake the DNA results,” Young said Edwards told him. “And he asked me ... to steal a diaper from the baby so he could secretly do a DNA test to find out if this (was) indeed his child.”

Cuts, tuition may increase

JUGGLING MORE THAN TIME

continued from page 1

continued from page 1 The Arizona Board of Regents has publicly supported Gov. Brewer’s attempts to balance the budget without cuts to education. Regents President Ernest Calderón wrote in an e-mail Thursday: “We are relieved and thankful that the December state general fund payment … has been fulfilled. Significant delays put the universities in peril and encroach on their ability to operate as they currently do.” State dollars historically make up about one third of the public funding for Arizona’s universities. The rest of the expenses are paid through tuition, federal grants and private donations. The state has cut $231.5 million from higher education since the beginning of 2009. In a Jan. 7 letter to the governor, the Arizona Board of Regents expressed concern that continued delays and cuts could jeopardize the state’s eligibility to receive stimulus dollars from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. “What we’re doing to the universities is criminal,” said Rep. Phil Lopes D-Tucson. “It’s the legislature’s responsibility to make sure there are adequate funds so that payments to universities are not interrupted. It’s our fault.” Neither the UA nor the Arizona Board of Regents would comment Thursday on whether legal action would be considered if delays continue. Arizona law does not specify the amount the state must contribute, but does mandate that public education remain “as nearly free as possible.” “Anything the legislature does is legal until somebody sues them … if nobody sues us, guess what — it’s legal,” Lopes said. Paquet warned that the state is only obligated to keep paying the scheduled amounts through 2011 and that tuition and programming could be severely affected without further protection to education funding. A review of the regents; “All Funds Budget” for fiscal year 2010 confirmed that the universities are shifting the financial burden to students. The budget reflects percentage increases of up to 22 percent for out-of-state graduate students at the UA. Base tuition for in-state undergraduate students at the UA has nearly doubled since 2004, according to university reports, and the Arizona Board of Regents will meet in March to consider further tuition increases. The regents also expressed concern that delays from the state could prevent universities from meeting contract payments for construction and programming, which could affect the schools’ credit ratings. A January 2010 Moody’s Investors Service report revealed that Arizona’s university credit scores have not yet been penalized. “Higher education is increasingly being perceived as a private benefit rather than a public good,” said Jenny Lee, UA College of Education professor and director of the Center for the Study of Higher Education. Lee said the state’s payment delays could have a domino effect on colleges and departments and how programs are funded in the long term. “Our current state leadership does not prioritize higher education,” Lee wrote in an e-mail Thursday. “They are short-sighted in seeing the role of colleges and universities in rebuilding the state economy.”

DUI

continued from page 1

Drivers have refusal rights

Tucson said,“An underage drinker can be arrested for minor in possession or internal possession – meaning the body possesses the alcohol.” Gutierrez said that an officer may direct a person to the side of the road for a field sobriety test if he or she has reason to believe the individual is under the influence. “The officers will often phrase it as though they do not have a choice but they have the ability to decline,” Gutierrez said. DUI checkpoints do not infringe on constitutional rights because they do maintain certain rules. “We’ve had evidentiary hearings on the constitutionality of the checkpoints,” Gutierrez said. The money will be used to find people with warrants for outstanding DUIs and conduct liquor license inspections. Pima County’s second grant, approximately $12,225, will be used to purchase 25 breathtesting machines for DUI suspects and for investigations of underage drinking. Nogales police will use the grant to purchase similar equipment and compensate the overtime staff needed for DUI enforcement missions. Such enforcement will center on underage drinkers returning from Mexico and residential parties where underage drinking is suspected. Alvarez says these grants are positive because they mean more officers on the street patrolling for impaired drivers, encouraging people to take extra safety measures. “We just ask people to be safe when they’re out there socializing

and having a good time,” Alvarez said.“Plan for other ways for getting to where you want to go.” Gutierrez believes this grant is better spent on regular patrols of the streets than on random DUI checkpoints. “What we’ve seen on research and statistics is they generally have these checkpoints all night and they rarely catch a lot of people,” Gutierrez said. He says driving under the influence is something Arizona focuses on since the state is not very dense and has little public transportation. “Out here, it’s a situation where you need a car to get places,” Gutierrez said. “There are a lot more roadways; there are a lot more opportunities for people to be in situations where they can hurt other people — unintentionally, but it does exist, so they’re trying to do what they can to scare people out of that.” Gutierrez expects that these grants will increase the number of DUI cases his law firm sees. He also imagines it will greatly impact students. “The checkpoints are simply more of political shows to groups like MADD and other anti-alcohol groups,” Gutierrez said. “It satisfies those people.” Campus Safety Coordinator Jason Casares said he believes students have done a tremendous job of driving responsibly. “The biggest thing for students is to make themselves aware,” Casares said.“If there’s an increase in checkpoints I think obviously it’s important for students to make themselves aware of what their rights are.”

‘We’re going to end up in the black’

Daily Wildcat: You said it’s a privilege to serve as an interim athletic director. But you said you’re not campaigning for the job. Why not? Rocky LaRose: Well, I love what I do. I’ve loved being senior associate athletic director of athletics. I’ve always joked that I had the better half of the department because I got to work with all the coaches and athletes and the part that’s our core mission why we’re here. I work with the people who work with the athletes on a day-to-day basis. That’s why we’re here, and having been an athlete, that’s what it’s all about. This now is so much more. Definitely the external side is a big component. It’s the most prominent component. DW: As universities need new athletic directors, hirees have gone from old-time coaches coming up through the ranks to CEOs and business-minded people taking over. Who is this job for? RL: I think it needs to be both. I think you have to have been involved with athletics. This is a very complex business. It’s too easy to say anybody can step in there to do it. It’s political, you’re dealing with huge amounts of money, and it’s dealing with young people we’re trying to educate. It also has to be an educator. It’s too easy to find a businessperson that can count money. DW: One of the biggest things Jim Livengood did was balance the checkbook in difficult economic times. What kind of role have you played ensuring financial security? RL: That hasn’t changed much at all. We were a three-person team with (Senior Associate Athletic Director) John Perrin. Both John and I have been the team that have signed off and been approved. We’re good at saying “no” and making sure we stay within the confines of our budget. And we’re pretty good at that. Our coaches have understood that’s the Arizona way. DW: How’s the rest of the fiscal year looking financially? RL: We’re going to end up in the black. Definitely. We know that for a fact. We’ve already forecasted out through the end of the year. There haven’t been any surprises. DW: Have there been any things you have tried to implement as AD? RL: No, not at this point. I’m just trying to make sure we’re not losing ground.

DW: Every year the graduation rates have been bottom of the Pac-10. Has there been anything different that you would like to see to make that change? RL: I’ve been intimately involved with that, too, with the restructuring over the past two years. I just think we’re in a terrific spot. The academic program sits up through the Provost’s office. I think we’re doing the right stuff. It’s just going to take time to turn the numbers over. It’s a sixyear window. It’s old data, yack yack yack you’ve heard it all. Believe me, I’m out of that. Let’s start talking about something else. When the (Academic Progress Report) comes out in May everyone is going to be very pleased. We will not be penalized or losing any scholarships. DW: What have your conversations been with Shelton in terms of dayto-day tasks? RL: That’s it. We’ve met quite often and it will continue during this transition and I just want to keep him fully updated on everything happening in the athletic department. Day-to-day talk. DW: Has he given you any longterm schedule? RL: Yes, his ultimate goal is very clear. I’m in this position until June 30 or until an AD is hired, which could be sooner. DW: Could finances limit who Shelton goes after as the next athletic director? RL: Ultimately, yes, if we’re being honest, because some ADs are getting paid quite a bit of money, but that doesn’t mean they can do a better job than everybody else. Yeah, we have to watch the budget. Arizona has done that continually throughout the years when hiring coaches.

Story highlights: * Athletics forecasts a balanced budget for the rest of Fiscal Year 2010. * LaRose said “everyone is going to be very pleased” with the upcoming Academic Progress Report for graduating athletes * UA will launch a fundraising campaign after North Endzone projects receives final approval next week * Finances could limit who Shelton hires as athletic director

GOP is not dead yet

Scott Brown, the light at the end of the tunnel The 2008 election was a discouraging, dark time for conservatives. Columnists all over the country predicted Sen. McCain’s loss before the election even took place. “Political professionals are putting their bets on McCain going back to Phoenix, not rising like one,” said Carolyn Lochhead in an Oct. 28, 2008 issue of the San Francisco Chronicle. This pervasive negativity led both conservatives and liberals to believe that the Grand Old Party had no future, at least for another Laura Donovan eight years - minimum. Columnist I hate to break it to the Democrats, but conservatism hasn’t kicked the bucket yet. Far from it. Republicans are resilient, and the 2008 election was not enough to shy politicians away from involvement. A little more than a year after President Obama was elected into office, Massachusetts, one of the most traditionally liberal states in the country, voted Republican Scott Brown into senate. “I think every state is now in play, absolutely,” Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif. told the Associated Press in light of Brown’s win. A year into Obama’s presidency, his Kool-Aid has run dry and some of his bandwagon supporters have begun to see the aftereffects of their vote. Brown’s win speaks true to the way citizens feel about the current political situation, and Massachusetts residents should be proud to be part of a such a shocking historical change in politics. Call me crazy, but I’m holding out for my home state of California to follow Massachusetts’s lead, see the light, and change accordingly. It’s wishful thinking, but conservatives deserve to be optimistic for once, especially considering the unpopular reputation that George W. Bush gave the Grand Old Party. For the first time in many years, there’s a true sense of hope for the Republican Party, and Democrats and liberals should welcome Brown’s ideas into senate. Naturally, many commentators are gladly raining on the Republican Party’s parade. Zennie Abraham of Sports Business Simulations said the election result was “a win for Scott Brown, not for the Grand Old Party. Only a charismatic, relatively young, youthful, cocky, and properous-looking white guy could get away with opposing aide to 9-11 volunteer workers and posing nude in Cosmo, yet still fill a seat occupied by the late, legendary Senator Ted Kennedy.” Way to be bitter and demonize someone for being Caucasian. What would this author say about the blatantly shallow way in which many people elected Obama into office? There are countless unrepentant citizens who voted for Obama because it was the trendy thing to do, and this doesn’t even account for those who subconsciously voted for him to feel socially evolved. It’s upsetting that people don’t always cast their votes for the right reasons, but it’s a political reality that Americans, myself included, must come to terms with. Obama may have been chosen to be president because his speeches inspired a lot of people, just as Brown could have been selected for his suave nature and debonair appearance. This kind of rationale is something that will forever shape a voter’s decision. Brown’s victory proves nothing, but it shows that conservatives are crawling back to success. This accomplishment may even encourage newly apathetic conservatives to participate in future elections and take an active role in electing Republicans into office. Regardless of how other states vote in the aftermath of this particular event, things are beginning to change for conservative politics. So, my fellow Republicans, let loose and break out into a victory dance, for even better things are yet to come for us. — Laura Donovan is a senior majoring in creative writing and a proud California Republican.

MAILBAG Columnist ignores abortion’s impact on children I respectfully disagree with Rachel Leavitt’s Thursday article Roe v. Wade: Saving women’s lives for 37 years. Ms. Leavitt argues that a woman’s right to privacy, an implicit right protected by the 14th Amendment, trumps a child’s right to life and liberty, a right that is explicit. This simply does not make sense. Every human being has a right to life, a right that cannot be forfeited by anyone but themselves. To take this fundamental right away from 30 million children is a crime for

which our society will be held responsible by the court of history. What’s more, Ms. Leavitt describes the agony of women, dying slow and painful deaths because of botched abortions prior to the ruling on Roe. v. Wade. What she does not speak of, though, is the tens of millions of children being, quite literally, cut up and ripped apart with the explicit sanction of their mothers. They writhe in agony too, Ms. Leavitt. Why do you not speak

out on their behalf, on behalf of those who need a voice, yet have none? America has committed a generational genocide, and has done so in the name of convenience and privacy. Our society has blood on its hands, the blood of tens of millions of innocent children. Ms. Leavitt, that you would defend this modern holocaust, even celebrate it as a cultural advancement, is a shame to you and to those who have influenced your understanding of morality.

to help them, set them free for an hour or two, let them experience someone else’s life, a better life, and gave them an escape. As head of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors Association Will Hays said in 1934, “No medium has contributed more greatly than the film to the maintenance of the national morale during a period featured by revolution, riot and political turmoil in other countries.” Movies, in general, are morale-boosters, tools for escaping reality. It’s not meant to be real. People don’t want to pay money to watch the misfit continue to be alone and unsure. Girls don’t wish to watch as the woman to whom they’ve grown to relate throughout the film concludes her journey for love heartbroken and hopeless. This explains the nauseatingly cheesy endings — the misfit defying all odds to find a fitting niche, the hunky jock with a sensitive side or the mysterious ruffian who writes poetry revealing his timeless love for the female protagonist, sealed with a passionate kiss, the superhero defeating his foes and his self-doubts in a valiant showdown. But movies are not supposed to be real. So accept them for what they are. Enjoy the fictitious romance, find joy in the loner’s company and regain hope in the hero’s success. If there are realistic aspects that you wish to pursue in the real world, be aggressive. But whatever you do, don’t wallow in self-pity.

Student steals steak, is arrested

On Jan. 19, a UA Police Department officer was called to Highland Market on the corner of Highland Avenue and Sixth Street at 12:42 p.m. The manager of the market called UAPD after she noticed a student walk out of the store with a steak without paying for it. The Beef Boneless New York steak, weighing .43 pounds and worth $3.61, was being held low against the manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leg in an effort to be concealed.Â The manager confronted him once he left the store, and the man asked if he could just pay for the steak without police involvement. The manager stated that the UA would like to prosecute. When the officer questioned the student about the incident, he said that he took the steak and did not pay because the line was too long and he did not feel like waiting. He stated again that he would like to pay for the steak. He was identified by a California driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license and placed under arrest. He was given a copy of his citation and then released. Highland Market staff requested that the student be warned of trespassing in the future. The Code of Conduct was read and the incident was reported to the Dean of Students.Â A copy of the receipt for the steak and video footage of the store were placed into UAPD property as evidence.

Former student denied grade change

On Jan. 19,Â at 1:37 p.m., a UAPD officer responded to the Center for English as a Second Language in response to a former student being argumentative. The officer spoke with two faculty members who said the student wasas being disruptive and was refusing to leave the building. One of the staff members told the officer that the man received a failing grade last semester and was therefore unable to continue this semester in his program. The man had been trying to get his grade changed from failing to passing and had been told to submit a written request to her office, and then she would schedule a time to meet with him. He showed up to her office at 1:15 p.m. without an appointment and demanded to meet with her. She told him once again to submit a written request and to leave her office. Another former teacher was also trying to get the student to leave and told the officer that the studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior had already been reported to UA legal services the previous semester.Â The woman did not want to press charges but wanted the man out of the building. The student was issued an Exclusionary Order for six months, and photos of him were taken, as well as former e-mails. The photos and the e-mails were placed into property.

Egging cars? So high school

A UAPD officer was performing a garage check of the Main Gate parking garage on East Second Street at midnight when a man flagged him down. The man, who was identified by an Arizona driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license, had been attending the Sabino High School formal dance at the Marriot Hotel at 9 p.m., and, when he returned to his car, he found it damaged. More than a dozen eggs had been thrown all over the windshield and right side of the car. Also, the front right tire had been slashed and was completely flat. The paint was also damaged because of the egg yolk. He told the officer of a person who could have possibly committed that crime. The suspect also goes to Sabino High School and is currently dating the manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ex-girlfriend.Â The two men have had problems in the past and the suspect was not at the dance that night. The officer called the suspect who said that he was at a friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house with others all night and had heard about the incident from his girlfriend but was not involved.Â He said that he was currently on unsupervised probation and would not vandalize a car, which would onlyget himself into more trouble.Â The owner of car said he would like to press charges against whoever is found guilty. Victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights were requested, and the car was left in the garage overnight until the tire could be fixed. Photos were taken and placed into evidence.

Too drunk to get arrested

A UAPD officer responded to the Alpha Delta Pi sorority house at 2 a.m. on Jan. 16 in response to a case of extreme intoxication. The officer found the woman passed out in one of the common rooms, and, after Tucson Fire Department could not wake her, she was transported to University Medical Center. Members of the Alpha Delta Pi house told the officer she had been out drinking earlier but did not tell the officer where. She had been vomiting and smelled strongly of alcohol. The woman was not cited at the time because she was unconscious but the officer stated that another police officer would arrest her when she could understand what was being told to her. She will be cited for Minor in Possession, and the incident was referred to the Dean of Students. Police Beat is compiled from official University of Arizona Police Department reports.

ARIZONA AT ASU

Miller, Sendek meet again UA seeks to end five-game losing streak against ASU By Vincent Balistreri ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Arizona head coach Sean Miller didn’t hold back his admiration for his old mentor, ASU head coach Herb Sendek, despite his Sun Devil connection. As Arizona (9-9, 3-3 Pacific 10 Conference) gears up to face off against the Sun Devils, (14-5, 4-2 Pac-10) at Wells Fargo Arena Saturday at 7:30 p.m., the two coaches’ friendship won’t be broken even by an intense in-state rivalry. Miller’s relationship with Sendek goes back to his time as Sendek’s assistant at North Carolina State from 1996-2001. “I respect Herb a great deal; he’s a Watch the Daily Wildcat’s Bryan Roy and really good Andrew Gruman of the person, and he’s a very State Press discuss the good coach,” rivalry on FSAZ’s Miller said of pregame show, his one-time Saturday at 7:15 p.m. mentor and current rival. “From my new vantage point, I really respect what he’s done with Arizona State’s program. He has his team playing together and with great effort.” The Sun Devils come into the game against the Wildcats with the No. 1 scoring defense, allowing 54.7 points per game. Miller lauded the Sun Devil defense and envisions the Wildcat defense reaching that same level one day. “It’s a part of their identity as a team and as a program,” Miller said. “It’s really what we’re trying to build here — that daily approach of playing extremely hard where defense matters.” Though Miller respects Sendek, as a first year head coach at Arizona inheriting a five-game losing streak against the Sun Devils, he understands that despite his respect for Sendek, he is expected to win against the rival coach.

W-hoops hopes to snap skid vs. ASU By Michael Fitzsimmons ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Wildcats and Sun Devils will renew their rivalry on Sunday when the women’s basketball teams will square off in a key conference matchup in McKale Center. Riding a two-game winning streak, including a record-breaking win against Oregon last Saturday, Arizona (9-7, 3-3 Pacific 10 conference) looks to cap off their three-game home set with a Territorial Cup win. “We’ll need to start and finish strong and put together a complete 40-minute basketball game if we want to win,” said UA head coach Niya Butts.

ANALYSIS

Arizona head coach Sean Miller expresses intensity on the sidelines in the Wildcats’ Dec. 23, 2009, last-second victory against North Carolina State. INSET: ASU head coach Herb Sendek argues during the Pac-10 Tournament on March 13, 2009, in the Staples Center.

The year 2007 is significant in the ASU — Arizona rivalry. In 2007, then-Xavier head coach Sean Miller saw his No. 17 Musketeers fall to the Sun Devils in Tempe, marking the rise of a once-lowly ASU hoops program. And, in 2007, ASU head coach Herb Sendek led the Sun Devils past Arizona for the first time during his tenure, starting a five-game streak which Miller hopes to extinguish Saturday. “It was a tough defense,” Miller said of playing ASU during Sendek’s first years as coach. “Where I would give it the most credit is they’re always on the same page.” The Sun Devils (14-5, 4-2 Pacific 10 Conference) implement an oddball, match-up zone defense that has given up a nation-low 54.7 points per game. In Sendek’s fourth year at the helm, ASU comes into Saturday’s game on a four-game winning streak during which their defense has yet to give up more than 57 points. “I think he’s taken pride in having a style that is unique,” Miller said of his former co-worker. But the Sun Devils aren’t only playing ugly, low-scoring games. Their offense has been clicking, helping them do more than grind out wins en route to a 17.4 average scoring margin during their last four games. ASU won’t turn the ball over much, nor will they show a surplus of athleticism. Instead, the Sun Devils will rely upon playing smart basketball and staying within the system that Sendek has successfully taught. “This is a big game for our fans. This is a big game for our team,” Miller said of his first taste of the Arizona rivalry. “The way you make every one of those people proud: to play with great energy, emotion and effort.”

Icecats eager for Rebel revenge Club hockey team defensive after being swept by UNLV in October By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Early Wednesday morning, it was confirmed that half of the Arizona Icecats’ six remaining home games — including what would have been tonight’s matchup versus the University of Nevada-Las Vegas — have been cancelled due to scheduling conflicts at the Tucson Convention Center. But the Icecats (9-12) still have a game to play against UNLV (18-5) Saturday night, and revenge is on their minds. “After getting beat 8-2 the second game and 7-4 the first game, of course we want revenge,” said freshman forward Brian Slugocki, who leads the team in goals with 20.“You always want revenge against somebody you lost badly to.” The Icecats were swept by the Runnin’Rebels at the end of October in Las Vegas. But, with the gradual maturation of the 19 freshman who have debuted this season, it is safe to say that the UA club hockey team is a much different group than they were first time these two teams faced off. “They’ve got a talented team,”said head coach Leo Golembiewski. “They’re an older team, a bigger team, so we’ll have our hands full just like we did there. But we’re a much stronger team than we were when we went to Vegas.” “I think it was just beginning-of-the-season jitters,” Slugocki added. “First bus trip, guys were tired. It should be a totally different

mindset for this game.” While the Icecats are years ahead of where they were in October, they won’t be at full strength on Saturday. The team is expected to be without its second-leading point-scorer, junior forward Jordan Schupan, who suffered a shoulder injury, for the second consecutive game. But, for the most part, the Icecats will be healthy for Saturday, and the players should have chips on their shoulders after the TCC chose Disney Live Rockin’ Road Show instead of Tucson’s favorite hockey team. If they hope to make a respectable season out of the roller-coaster ride that has characterized their 2009-2010 campaign, the Icecats need to translate that frustration to the ice from the moment the puck drops. “We need to come out strong,” said senior defenseman Zach Cherney. “The past few games we’ve had rough starts. To get the momentum right away would be huge for us—get a couple of quick goals, get some confidence, get the legs going and wear them down.” There may be no Friday game like usual, but nothing should change because of it. The puck will still drop at 7:30 on Saturday night, and this team still needs to go out and compete for 60 minutes if they still want to end the season .500. “We’re looking towards finishing strong and that should help have a good feel to the season,” said associate head coach Dave Dougall.“Winning games solves everything.”

Gutty effort a necessity for Arizona swim and dive By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The UA swim and dive team will be in the Bay Area this weekend taking on some of the country’s best competition: Stanford and California. As all three programs have sat atop the swimming world for quite some time, there is certainly history between the schools. “We have always had a strong rivalry with Stanford and Cal just because of the success that all of our teams have had at NCAAs,” said senior swimmer Jack Brown.“It’s a conference meet, and

these are the guys that we are going to be racing on the national scene as well.” The No. 2 UA women’s team has struggled against No. 3 Stanford in the past, including a one-point loss last season in the Bay Area. With a sour taste still lingering in the mouths of the women’s squad, they would love nothing more than to avenge last season’s loss and take down the Cardinal. “There’s always been this history between us and them,” said sophomore Alyssa Anderson. “We would love to come into their home and beat them up. That would be awesome.”

It is going to take a gutsy effort for the Wildcats to leave Northern California 4-0, especially when the emphasis of these mid-training meets is more about effort and focus than end result. But the idea of taking down topnotch teams like Stanford and Cal — both have men’s and women’s teams ranked in the top-five — makes these world-class athletes try their best to forget about the aches and pains and work that much harder to touch the wall first. “The races will be bloodbaths for sure,” Anderson said. “Gutting-it-out, whoever-wants-it-more type races.

We’re both in season; we’re both tired. But these races are the truest test of character and the type of swimmer that you want to be known as, doing it for your team under any circumstances.” Although the dual meet season — where the UA is combined 7-0 thus far — has nowhere near the same importance as Pac 10s and NCAAs, now is the time when good teams really hit their stride. With five to six weeks until conference meets and three top-five schools on deck — Stanford and Cal this weekend, and Texas next weekend — Arizona can certainly use this weekend to come together and build

toward a national title. In fact, Brown is certain that this weekend, two years ago, set the tone for Arizona’s 2008 championship run. “Two years ago, when we won a national championship, I felt like this meet was the meet that our teams really came together and kind of where we started our run at a championship,” Brown said.“I think this meet is a really important stepping stone for everything that’s to come.” Anderson, who was a senior in high SWIM, page 7

Miller’s first taste of UA/ASU rivalry

“I respect Herb, but that’s really where it ends,” he said. “My job at Arizona is to win, and when we’re playing Arizona State … our job is to be as prepared as we can.” With a young team and five freshmen playing their first game against ASU on the road, it will be imperative for the Wildcats to control their emotions, which will naturally be high during a rival game. “Obviously, we must bring a lot of intensity to the game, but, at the same time, we must stay levelheaded and not let our emotions get the best of us,” said guard Kyle Fogg. “Although it’s this huge game, we have to go out there and stay calm.” Fogg referred back to his first game against ASU a year ago, a game which he admitted he didn’t know the real significance of until he was on the court. “Last year, it didn’t sink in big time until we were there and going up against their fans,” he said. “This year, for me, it’s definitely a bigger deal, and I know what to expect and know how

their fans are.” Freshman standout Derrick Williams is in the same position that Fogg was in a year ago but has heard his teammates talk about it. “The fans are going to be crazy, that’s what Nic (Wise) and Jamelle (Horne) have told us freshmen,” Williams said. “I just expect the student section to be crazy, but we have to block that out and just play.” Williams also knows that Wise, the only senior on the team, wants to win this game, his last at ASU, more than anyone else. “Nic’s been telling us that he’s like 2-5 against them and has lost the last five,” he said. “So I know he wants to come out and win two in a row against (ASU).” The Wildcats will try to end the losing streak and set the tone for the rivalry during the Miller era. “Make no mistake about it. I want to win, and I want to have a team that’s prepared and hungry,” he said. “I recognize we have to have a really good game in order to win.”

Gymcats head into hostile territory

Battling in Bay Area

The Arizona gymnastics team will travel to Tempe this weekend to compete on Sunday at 3 p.m. against rival Arizona State in hopes of keeping its three-meet winning streak against ASU (1-3) alive. The No. 24 Gymcats (0-2) defeated ASU last year, in Tucson, 195.75-195.25, and hope to continue that trend this time around. “We are making vast improvements. We have obviously a very young team and it’s a little bit like a deer in headlights when we first came out at our first meet,” said assistant coach Colleen Johnson. “I think we are going to continue to grow and surprise a lot of people.”

school in 2008, was at these very same meets as a spectator two years ago. She could see from the stands that Arizona was poised for a national title. “There was no doubt that they won that year because you could tell that there was something that was just clicking,” Anderson said. While Anderson was simply a witness then, she is now a participant experiencing that very same feeling herself. “The coaches have said, ‘You know this is looking a lot like 2008’,” Anderson said. “Everyone’s on the same page this year with really high goals that if we just stick to who knows what can happen.” With tired legs and exhausted minds, the UA swim and dive team will need to show unbelievable heart and determination this weekend. If that happens, it may be a stepping-stone toward a national title, a la 2008. But, according to head coach Frank Busch, all of that depends on mentality and focus. “This is one of those weekends where we could come back 0-4 or we could come back 4-0,” Busch said.“It just depends on how prepared they are for this meet, what they’re thinking about and how our kids react to them.”

Tennis swings into spring season

This weekend, the Arizona tennis teams will start their spring 2010 campaign at home with the women facing UC-Davis and UC-Santa Barbara today and Saturday, respectively, while the men face Montana State on Sunday. The men’s squad starts the season ranked No. 24 in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) poll — the same spot they finished in last spring after losing to Texas A&M in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. The current No. 24 ranking is the highest the men have started since current head coach Tad Berkowitz took over the team five seasons ago.

Track to challenge Stanford and Cal

The UA men and women’s track and field teams are heading to Albuquerque, N.M., for the 2010 Cherry and Silver Invitational on Saturday. Arizona will test their mettle against Pacific 10 Conference schools California and Stanford as well as the University of New Mexico, and some athletes are unattached in its first invitational of the season. “Coming into this meet, we’ll get a better picture of where we are as a team because we’ll take out sprinters and put them into their true events,” said head coach Fred Harvey. The meet will also feature the distance team and triple jumpers for the first time all season. — compiled by Nathan Comerford, Kevin Nadakal and Galo Mejia

UA scores third-most points in Pac-10

last eight meetings against ASU (11-6, 3-3). However, this year promises to be a little different. A revamped Wildcat roster would like nothing more than to end the losing streak against their in-state rivals. Although junior forward Soana Lucet has never experienced this rivalry, having transferred to Arizona this year, she understands its importance. “Of course, it’s ASU, we want to beat them,” said Lucet after practice this week. ASU was picked to finish second in the Pac10 pre-season media poll, but stumbled out of the gate in conference play, losing its first three in a row to USC, UCLA and Washington. The Sun Devils responded by winning their next three conference games and currently find themselves wedged in a

three-way tie with Arizona and Washington for fifth place in the Pac-10. “You know they’re still ASU,” Butts said. “(Head coach Charli Turner Thorne) does a great job with her team; they are a great program.” Three players have emerged among the Wildcat starting five, with freshman Davellyn Whyte leading the way, averaging a team-high 17.7 points per game — second in the conference. Juniors Ify Ibekwe and Lucet round out that trio, helping Arizona become the third-highest scoring team in the Pac-10. With a starting five rounded out by senior point guard Ashley Frazier and sophomore guard Brooke Jackson, Arizona will have its hands full on offense- against one of the

conference’s toughest defenses. ASU allows only 58.2 points per game to their opponents, and it is clear that the Wildcats will certainly not paste 119 points on the Devils like they did against Oregon less than a week ago. “Their style of play is getting physical on the defensive end,” said Butts. “They’re aggressive, so we’re looking for that physical basketball game, and we’ve been adjusting to that in practice this week.” Senior Danielle Orsillo and junior Becca Tobin lead the Sun Devil offense that focuses on scoring in the paint. However, if the Wildcats can limit ASU’s penetration — the Sun Devils shoot 29 percent from the threepoint line — Arizona can attempt to turn around the losing streak against ASU.
