The Arizona Nursing Program Outcome Index, put out by the Arizona State Board of Nursing, has ranked the UA College of Nursing No. 1 in the state for program outcomes. The UA currently offers a Bachelor of Science in Nursing program and a Master of Science for Entry to the Profession of Nursing program for students who aim to become registered nurses. Dr. Ki Moore, the administrative leader of the bachelors program, said his program’s data supports this ranking. “Our attrition rate is so low and our completion rates are always above 90 percent, and our employment rate is 100 percent—all of our graduates get positions,” Moore said. Moore said that last year, 95 percent of UA nursing students had a first-time passing score on the National Council Licensure Examination, which was well above the state and national averages. She said this is a wonderful honor and it is all a result of the fantastic faculty and students in the programs. Terry Badger, the administrative leader of the MEPN program, said she is extremely proud but is not really surprised, as the college has consistently done well in the rankings. “I’m not at all surprised that we are No. 1, because our students and our faculty are No. 1,” Badger said. “We have very amazing master teachers as well as very high-quality students, who both work very hard.” Badger said that they are always in the process of continuing quality improvement and that it can only serve students well to go to a high-quality nursing program. Alexa Tagaban, a prenursing sophomore, said she feels very lucky to be able to go to an in-state university

Nursing junior Sydney Reed said that the college prepares students very well and the program has partnerships with all major hospitals in Tucson, providing students with diverse experience during their clinical rotations. While this ranking is sure to bring more attention and
students to the program, some students worry about whether this will affect admissions to the program. Moore said the college currently accepts 54 students each fall and spring semester to the program. “The interview process is also highly selective, which ensures they only take the best from across the nation,” Tagaban said. “[The ranking] may affect me negatively because the competition for those 50 or so spots is highly aggressive.” Moore said that since the program is already
competitive, she doesn’t know if the ranking will make much of a difference for those interested in applying. “What this means for the students in the program is that it serves as sending messages to potential employers that we have very qualified applicants to work in their institution, who can make positive contributions to health care delivery,” Moore said.

The Arizona Board of Regents are convening at the UA for three days of meetings starting today. The regents are responsible for the governance of Arizona’s three public universities and will make decisions regarding each university’s financial and academic strategic plans, as well as work on its overall plan for improving post-secondary education in Arizona.
“Help Save Higher Education in Arizona” on Friday. The petition has nearly 500 signatures and calls for lower tuition costs and increased funding to public colleges and universities in Arizona, starting with the rolling back of the 2014-2015 budget cuts. GSOC will also address labor conditions of graduate teaching assistants and adjunct professors at the UA. In a recent press release, GSOC stated that while graduate assistant teachers and adjunct professors teach more than half of the undergraduate courses at UA, the average salary of a graduate teaching assistant is $16,000—$1,400 less than the living wage in Pima County. The petition calls for all university employees to be paid a living wage and asks that the gap between the highest and lowest paid employees be reduced.

The UA Administration bulding on Nov. 17. Ambassadors from the Undergraduate Biology Research Program organized a panel discussion on Nov. 12 addressing the subject of where students’ tuition money is going.
Students, parents fret over tuition hikes BY Elisabeth Morales The Daily Wildcat
With the cost of tuition skyrocketing as a result of state budget cuts, parents and students find themselves wondering if a four-year university is the best option. Ambassadors from the Undergraduate Biology Research Program organized a panel discussion Nov. 12 to address where all the money from tuition is going. According to Andrew Comrie, the provost and senior vice president of Academic Affairs, tuition all goes into a “big pot,” which is used to cover the average cost of educating a student—which ranges from $15,000 to $17,000. Rick Myers, a member of the Arizona Board of Regents, said that in 2008 the state of Arizona contributed about 78 percent of the cost to educate a student. That number
has now drastically decreased to just 34 percent, according to Myers. “Those numbers just don’t make sense to me,” said Franchesca Aguirre, an incoming freshman hoping to major in public health. “This is why more kids are just automatically OK with going to community college rather than a university, and maybe if we got that percentage up more high school students would look more at universities and have better opportunities.” For students like Aguirre, figuring out how to afford the four-year cost has been a constant worry. “Going to a university seems like the best thing in the world until you really start figuring out how you’re going to get there,” she said. “My mom will support me as much as she can, but we don’t want to take out loans, so I will be working and helping out as much as I can.”
Since Myers became a board member almost six years ago, the state of Arizona contributed $1.1 billion to the three instate universities. Over the last year, the state has only contributed slightly over $600 million, which is a loss of half a billion dollars toward education. “It shocks me that the state could care so little when it comes to education,” said Robin Skinner, a UA alumna and a financially contributing parent of a current UA student. “Education should be one of the highest priorities, where funding is cut the least.” While critics say that this generation is looking for free handouts, a UA alumna and mother of a current UA student, Suzanna Jimenez, said she disagrees. “When I was a student here, I was lowincome and it was hard, but it was possible and I did it. It is not like that … now for a
student [trying] to put themselves through a four-year university,” she said. “I’m not asking for it to be free; I’m asking for it to be attainable.” Aguirre commented on the high educational and professional standards of employers, saying that she feels government funding should help students reach them. “The state and the rest of the country need to understand the next generation needs to be as educated as possible,” Aguirre said. “Everywhere, jobs are expecting the most qualified and educated candidates, and that won’t be possible if nothing changes or cuts get worse.”

POLICE BEAT BY MEGHAN FERNANDEZ The Daily Wildcat
I claim this vomit for ‘Merica A UA student was diverted to the Dean of Students Office for a minor in possession after a University of Arizona Police Department officer witnessed her vomiting. The officer was patrolling nearby the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity when he witnessed a female student vomiting outside the house. The officer approached her and asked why she was vomiting. She told him it was the stomach flu. She spoke incoherently, had red and watery eyes and smelled of alcohol. She also couldn’t maintain her balance when standing. The student told the officer her name and presented her CatCard. She also informed the officer that she took five shots of vodka at a party. She said the theme of the party was “America.” Tucson Fire Department evaluated the student because she told the officer that she usually does not feel sick after drinking. After she was medically cleared, the officer gave her a ride back to her residence hall. Out for a run Two UA students who stole a traffic sign and ran down Sixth Street were cited for minors in possession. A UAPD officer was driving east on Sixth Street when he saw three men running west and lugging a traffic sign. The officer turned around and stopped the men, but one of them ran off. The officer talked to the other two, who are UA students. He asked them why they were running with a traffic sign and one of the students said they were just out for a run. While the student spoke, the officer smelled alcohol. That same student presented both his debit card and credit card when the officer asked for a state identification. The officer asked the two students where they had been prior to running down the street with a traffic sign, and the other student responded that they had been at The Retreat at Tucson. The officer then asked if they had been drinking which they both denied despite smelling of alcohol. After the officer informed them that he could smell alcohol on them, the two students said they drank beer at the apartments. Both of the students had difficulty speaking. The student who had been dragging the sign while running told the officer he took the traffic sign from Arizona Stadium and said he did not know why he did that. He also apologized and said he wanted to go home. Both of the students had previous encounters with UAPD. One of the students had been diverted for minor in possession and the other student had been cited for possession of paraphernalia.

Rejoice! The UA has a healthy sex life BY Nick Johnson The Daily Wildcat
For 10 years now, Trojan Brand Condoms has released a Sexual Health Report Card that ranks colleges and universities nationally on their sexual health. This year, the UA ranked No. 10. The report card has changed over its 10year life span. When it first launched in 2006, it reviewed the sexual health of 100 schools. Now, it looks at 140 schools. A school’s ranking is based on a 4.0 point scale not unlike a real report cart. The average GPA at the beginning of this study in 2006 was a 1.9—this year, the national average GPA is a 3.0. Schools earn their grade based on their performance in 11 categories: quality of sexual health information and resources on its website, contraceptive availability, condom availability, HIV testing on-site, STI testing, outreach programs and student peer groups for sexual health education, sexual assault programs, overall website usability and quality, hours of operation, drop-in availability or requiring appointments for student scheduling, and extra credit.

Campus Health holds a SexTalk week in February, where experts answer questions about sex on the UA Mall. It also houses the Oasis Program, which helps students with sexual assault, relationship violence and stalking. The service also hosts talks at residence halls, fraternities and sororities. The Campus Health Pharmacy offers students reduced prices on contraception and condoms. Condoms at the pharmacy are roughly $15 for 100. Most pharmacies charge around $50 for Plan B, but at the Campus Health Pharmacy, it’s only $35. “Campus Health is a resource for students.

A surprising fix for macular degeneration BY Andy Alvarado The Daily Wildcat
A new study led by UA researchers reveals that age-related macular degeneration, a disease that causes blindness in 9 million older Americans, may be prevented or delayed by using a drug that treats motion-related diseases like Parkinson’s disease. Brian McKay, the study’s lead researcher and an associate professor of ophthalmology and vision science at the UA College of Medicine, worked with a team of 13 researchers from around the country by analyzing data from 15 years and 87 million patients who had developed age-related macular degeneration, or AMD. AMD gradually destroys a person’s ability to read, write, drive, see in their upper field of vision and, eventually, see anything at all. “It’s the most common cause of irreversible blindness on the planet,” McKay said. McKay and his researchers looked for differences between patients who took the drug levodopa, also called L-dopa, which is a naturally produced chemical used to treat motion-related disease, and patients
who did not. “We asked the very simple question: If you’re taking L-dopa for whatever reason, do you get AMD?” McKay said. The study revealed that patients who took L-dopa developed macular degeneration eight and a half years later on average compared to those who did not. McKay began the collection of data back in 2000, when his studies of then-newly released research revealed that white-skinned people were six times more likely to develop AMD. Brown pigments in the skin and eyes are more proficient at generating L-dopa, which is the chemical that helps keep the photoreceptors in the eye alive and functioning, said McKay. By taking L-dopa in pill form, patients were able to prevent or delay the development of AMD. “Research points to this as a pathway to regulate and prevent this most common cause of blindness in adults,” said Murray Brilliant, the director of the Center for Human Genetics at the Marshfield Clinic Research Foundation in Wisconsin and a lead researcher in the study, in a press release. “Imagine telling
patients we potentially have medication that will allow them to see and continue enjoying life, their family and perform everyday activities as they age. That is very powerful.” McKay explained that while the new discovery opens new doors for research, it is not a surefire way to prevent the disease. “I think this is step one in figuring out how to cure this disease,” McKay said. “It’s not done, but it certainly shows that we probably have the right path. We know what to do now.” Michelle Valenti, a public health senior, said she thinks that since there is no cure for AMD, it would be ideal if it were preventable. “We can’t control any of the hereditary components of the disease, but there are things that can increase the risk,” Valenti said. “I’m pretty sure smoking is a pretty huge risk factor, but also nutrition is important for preventing it.” But besides preventing blindness in the people susceptible to the disease, being able to effectively combat AMD would bring other benefits to the public health sector. “Lowering the number of cases could lower medical costs overall,”
Jesus Barrera/The Daily Wildcat
Fifty-five-year-old Dennis Walsh struggles to read a newspaper on Nov. 17th. UA researchers have found a link between the Parkinson’s disease drug, levodopa, and helping to prolong the amount of time before macular degeneration sets in.
Valenti said. “It would also improve the overall quality of life for those who would have the disease.” L-dopa, the precursor to dopamine production, rarely has side effects other than making patients feel “really happy.” McKay said that doctors will most likely begin prescribing patients the drug to combat AMD within the next month. This is despite the fact that it must still undergo clinical trials in order to become FDA approved as a drug repurposed to treat a different
disease. McKay said that clinical trials would finish within the next two years. In the meantime, he said he will be hard at work developing a new drug designed to specifically target and completely prevent AMD. “I already have some pretty good ideas of what [the new drug] is going to look like,” McKay said.

UA expert looks into details of Iran Deal BY Mikayla Mace
agreement, said Faten Ghosn, UA associate professor of government and public health policy.
The Daily Wildcat
Nuclear power can be used for good, clean energy and scientific research, or it can be used to create the most destructive force known to man. This paradoxical nature of nuclear power has many Americans concerned about the recent Iran nuclear deal. Only 21 percent of Americans support the Iran nuclear deal, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. Highprofile opponents, ranging from congressional Republicans and GOP presidential candidates to Israelis, are loud and many. On the other hand, supporters include most congressional Democrats and many world leaders. From the perspective of most scientists, there’s no reason for Americans to fear a nuclear Iran. Surveillance by the International Atomic Energy Agency, collecting nuclear material, building a deployable weapon and testing the weapon discretely are all difficult tasks that will ultimately prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear threat. Harnessing nuclear power Nuclear power requires radioactive material, such as uranium. Almost all raw uranium—99.3 percent— is U-238. Its relative stability makes it unsuitable as fuel for nuclear power, according to Phillip Pinto, an astronomy and physics professor at the UA. Pinto has worked as a consultant for a U.S. nuclear weapons laboratory. The other 0.7 percent of the raw uranium—U-235—has three fewer neutrons in its nucleus, making it unstable and therefore ideal for nuclear power, Pinto said. Collection of U-235 requires enrichment. Natural uranium is made gaseous when mixed with hexafluoride gas. This chemical combination is then spun at high speeds in a gas centrifuge, separating the heavier U-238 from the lighter U-235. To make fuel for nuclear power plants, raw uranium must be enriched to about 5 percent U-235. For nuclear weapons, it must be enriched to more than 80 percent.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry shakes hands with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier in Vienna, Austria, on Nov. 22, 2014, before a bilateral meeting about the status of the nuclear program negotiations between the P5+1 nations and Iranian officials.
What’s the deal? The Iran nuclear deal prohibits Iran from developing nuclear weapons for at least 10 years. By reducing the number of working centrifuges and monitoring enrichment levels, it restricts the production of U-235. The deal encourages compliance by lifting sanctions on Iran and freeing $56 billion for the country. The International Atomic Energy Agency will enforce the treaty framework and monitor Iran’s nuclear facilities. Since 1968, Iran and 190 other countries have signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. By agreeing to this treaty, Iran is legally allowed to develop nuclear power for peaceful purposes, which it has done. But opponents of the deal argue that Iran might violate the treaty and easily develop nuclear weapons. Supporters of the deal are also worried. But they think that the treaty will make violations less likely and easier to detect. Building a
deployable weapon is difficult with such restrictions. They believe that the treaty will buy time for the world to work with Iran and ensure peaceful nuclear development in the future. “There will be at least the possibility of Iran opening up to the world and changing the way they do things,” said Timothy Axelrod, a UA Professor Emeritus of astronomy who also used to work for the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Can Iran keep a secret? Under this treaty, Iran would have the tools to enrich uranium to levels needed to create a bomb. For this reason, containing and monitoring the enrichment process lies at the heart of all efforts to prevent nuclear proliferation. For commercial nuclear energy, radioactive uranium is concentrated to levels between 3 and 5 percent. But to build a bomb, enrichment must exceed 80 percent, Pinto said. The process requires thousands of
centrifuges to concentrate U-235 to significant levels, which Iran still has under this deal. According to Pinto, to control the amount of enriched uranium, the deal reduces the number of centrifuges in Iran’s possession from about 19,000 to about 6,000. The reduced number of centrifuges would make it difficult for Iran to support a power program while trying to create weaponsgrade uranium. Some experts agree that the number of centrifuges Iran has may not be enough for a power program. According to Daryl Kimball, the executive director of the Arms Control Association, in an interview with PolitiFact, it would take Iran 12 months to create enough weaponsgrade uranium for one bomb, which would give inspectors adequate time to notice. The International Atomic Energy Agency will monitor Iran’s nuclear facilities more strictly than any previous non-proliferation
But can it really go BOOM? If Iran decided to cheat on the treaty and produced weapons-grade uranium, the next step would be to build a deployable weapon. Building a useful weapon on the first try is difficult, according to Pinto. “You and I and six of our best friends could probably figure out how to build a car that drove, but trying to build a Maserati on the first go without ever having built another kind of car—no way,” he said. Pinto outlined two potential bomb designs. The first calls for a grapefruit-sized ball of U-235. This amount is subcritical, meaning it can’t explode. But squeezing the sphere by using uniform explosions pushes the atoms closer together and causes it to go supercritical. This technique is difficult. If compressed unevenly, the U-235 will squish out like toothpaste in your hand, Pinto said. This was the design for the bomb used over Nagasaki—although it used plutonium. The other method uses a slightly larger sphere of U-235 but removes a central cylinder. Then, a naval cannon shoots the cylinder back in place, making the sphere supercritical. This method is easier, but the bulkiness of the design makes it harder to transport and more expensive to build. This was the design used for the bomb dropped on Hiroshima. A dead giveaway These designs are sophisticated, but without a testing program or access to classified testing data from other countries, it’s impossible for Iran to build military grade weapons, Pinto said. It is illegal for Iran to have a nuclear testing program. But if Iran decided to test a weapon, it would be to ensure that the nuclear weapon is deliverable. The delivery system must be light and compact to fit on a missile, rugged enough to survive launch and reliable enough to ensure that it will explode once reaching the target, according to Pinto. But any above-ground testing would be obvious. Underground tests are also easily detected. Seismic

The Food-Mood Connection The theory that food influences our health and well-being is certainly nothing new. But can food influence our mood? You bet! Says who? Clinical researchers from here, there and everywhere. Several studies have linked poor diet quality with increased symptoms of depression, anxiety and other mood disorders. Not only can our food choices influence our mood, but also our mood can impact our food choices. Many people tend to eat more or less when they experience different emotions. According to a survey conducted by National Public Radio, over one third of participants reported that they change their diets during stressful times. Here are a few tips to improve your food-mood connection: 1.Don’t skip meals: eating consistently throughout the day will keep your body fueled and your blood sugar levels on an even keel. 2.Avoid high-sugar foods/beverages and refined grains such as soda, energy drinks, sugar-filled coffee drinks, bagels, doughnuts, and sugary
cereals. These foods can raise your blood sugar levels quickly, resulting in a spike and crash that can leave you feeling cranky and low in energy. 3.Choose healthy fats: Omega 3 fats from foods like salmon, tuna, ground flax seeds, chia seeds, avocado and walnuts have been shown to improve mood and brain function. 4.Include high quality protein consistently throughout the day: Some examples include fish, chicken, beans, eggs, nuts, quinoa, yogurt, cottage cheese, and milk. Protein consists of amino acids, which are the building blocks of chemical messengers in the brain. Protein raises levels of the amino acid tyrosine, which prompts the brain to produce chemicals responsible for keeping us alert and energized. Food isn’t the only thing that can influence our mood. There are many layers to our “mood” onion. If your mood feels out of control and you don’t know where to turn, call or visit UA Counseling and Psych Services (CAPS) located on the third floor of UA Campus Health (520-621-3334).

Researchers at UA Valley Fever for Excellence find new treatments and immunizations for valley fever BY Priyanka Hadvani The Daily Wildcat
Coccidioidomycosis, more commonly known as valley fever, is an infection caused by a fungus that generally grows in soil prevalent in regions of Arizona and California. Dr. John Galgiani, founding director of the UA Valley Fever Center for Excellence, provided information about the pathway of this fungal infection. “After it rains and the soil dries, the spores from the soil will inhabit the air, causing infection to all those who breathe in the spores,” Galgiani said. Valley fever infects 10,000 to 20,000 people in California and Arizona each year. Two-thirds of these people will not feel sick—their immune system will control it—but the other third will get pneumonia, according to Galgiani. “Yet this is a big underestimate, as probably two to three times this number get sick, but will not be reported because there is a lack of proper diagnosis,” Galgiani said. Symptoms of this illness include fever, chest pain and coughing. It can take the body weeks or months to control the infection once it enters the body, but only a small percentage of people will develop complications. “Two-thirds of all valley fever cases in the United States originate in Arizona,” said Galgiani. “We should be paying attention to it.” The Valley Fever Center for Excellence aims to “educate the public with research and improve the care of people who have this disease,” according to Galgiani. Incorrect diagnoses may lead to situations where improper care is given, resulting in greater health care costs. Research has been done at the UA regarding valley fever vaccination. Dr. Marc Orbach, associate professor of plant pathology and microbiology, developed a valley fever vaccine. “Orbach genetically modified a fungus so it no longer caused disease,” said Galgiani. “By using it as a vaccine, immunity is created in [mice], at least, which provides a promising future for use by dogs and humans.” In addition, research into nikkomycin Z, an antifungal drug, was sponsored by the UA. “Phase one safety trials of NikZ showed

that the drug was safe,” said Galgiani. “Once the drug is tested, people with valley fever can start using it.” Currently, there are no clinical trials involving nikkomycin Z being conducted at the UA. A phase one trial with 33 participants was completed in 2009. A subsequent trial involving the drug was terminated in 2013 as a result of problems recruiting subjects. Another clinical experiment done at Campus Health Service compared students who had valley fever to students who had mononucleosis, another disease known to be long and drawn out. This study showed that twice as many students got mononucleosis than valley fever, but twice as many students with valley fever dropped out the first semester.

Today, the Iran nuclear program, which the U.S. fostered, is almost 60 years old.
What’s the best hangover cure? Simply put? Water and time. Friends and Google might advise you to drink coffee, eat menudo, or even take another drink of alcohol. You can try all the “cures” you’d like, but the only proven way to avoid hangovers is to prevent them in the first place. The two best life hacks for drinkers are 1) drink plenty of water (or another nonalcoholic beverage) while you party, and 2) limit the number of alcoholic drinks you have. If you ever wake up feeling hungover, try these tips: Manage hangovers with healthy fluid replacement. Drinking leads to dehydration because alcohol is a diuretic – it increases the rate of urination. The more you drink, the more you will experience dehydration’s ill effects the next day, such as headache, dry mouth and fatigue. Pour some water or grab a sports drink – they have the added benefit of glucose (sugar) and electrolytes (minerals). Treat headaches with pain relievers. Avoid acetaminophen. After a night
Don’t waste money on hangover pills. Most of them instruct you to wash down their products with large amounts of water. If they help, it’s because of all the extra water easing your dehydration – not the magic pills (which are usually just aspirin and caffeine). Save your money: drink water or sports drinks and take an aspirin if you must. While some caffeine might help you feel more alert, it won’t get the alcohol out of you faster. Want more alcohol info?

UA center on the prowl for wild cat research BY Kaitlyn Fletcher The Daily Wildcat
A powerful cat roams within and between the mountain ranges across the Sky Island region, scanning its surroundings, hidden among the shadows. It is rare for humans to see this secretive animal while exploring its rugged habitat. Mountain lions (Puma concolor), also known as pumas or cougars, blend into the terrain with their uniform tan coloration. These solitary cats prowl throughout the Americas on the hunt for deer and deer-sized animals, such as javelina and bighorn sheep. With the capability of jumping vertically up to 20 feet and leaping over 40 feet in a single hop, mountain lions use their stealth and muscular build to pounce on prey and seize a fatal bite in a matter of seconds. Because of its critical ecosystem function, this apex carnivore is considered “America’s big cat,” according to Lisa Haynes, a coordinator for the UA Wild Cat Research and Conservation Center. The Wild Cat Research and Conservation Center is dedicated to studying and preserving all 36 species of wild cats around the world. The organization has researched bobcats, jaguars, fishing cats, African lions and mountain lions all over the world including Tucson, Southern Arizona, Northern Mexico, Southeast Asia and Zambia. Historically, mountain lions wandered across the U.S. until the mid-1800s. Farmers despised the animals for killing their livestock, and unregulated market hunters nearly wiped out their native prey, white-tailed deer, causing a downward spiral in mountain lion populations across the Midwest and the Eastern U.S. After over 100 years, the cats are making a comeback in some areas of the Midwest, in correlation with increasing whitetail deer populations, according to National Geographic. Yet, in Western states, the cats are under increasing pressure and persecution by state wildlife agencies, largely due to competition with human hunters for their native prey. Mountain lions are currently not endangered, with an estimated population between 2,500 to 3,000 in the state of Arizona, according to the Arizona Game and Fish Department. These animals are “one of the most widely distributed mammal species in the world,” Haynes said. They range from the Yukon in northern Canada to almost the southern tip

of South America. This distribution shows the mountain lion’s ability to adapt to a variety of habitats as long as prey animals are present. Dr. Ashwin Naidu, who received his doctorate in wildlife conservation and management, studied at the Wild Cat Center as a graduate student and performed a landscape genetic assessment of mountain lions in the Southwestern U.S. for his dissertation. He used DNA from scat and tissue samples to analyze the genetic structure of these cats in the desert Southwest. The Puma Genetic Database was created in 2014 with the raw data obtained by Naidu and his former colleague, Dr. Robert Fitak, to serve as a reference for future genetic research on the mountain lion species. This “simple application of data sharing,” Naidu said, can be used by other scientists as a comparison to their subsequent assessments of the population structure and relatedness. Male mountain lions roam territories larger than 100 square miles, which is about the size of Eloy,
Arizona. These turfs can reach up to 600 square miles when the animal needs to “island hop” between mountain ranges, according to Haynes. Females hold smaller home ranges within the male territories. Landscape fragmentation is one of the biggest threats that mountain lions face in the Southwest because of their need for large areas of land. Naidu said that interstates with high traffic volumes, barricaded canals and combined urban infrastructure could be potential barriers to gene flow, or the exchange of genetic information between neighboring populations. Gene flow reduction through blocked migration pathways resulting from increased urbanization threatens the genetic diversity of the isolated populations. New adult males are unable to disperse to a vacant home range and contribute new genes to the population because of man-made obstacles. The resulting isolation increases their vulnerability to diseases and genetic abnormality, such as kinked tails.
The construction of human infrastructure shrinks the available habitat and also threatens new adult males because it can be difficult to find territory not occupied by another male. Some government entities, including Pima County, are combating this problem by constructing wildlife pathways to cross busy highways or water channels. The Central Arizona Project built some of the canal sections underground to allow movement of wildlife between populations. Cameras set up by the Wild Cat Research and Conservation Center have proven the use of the corridors by a variety of desert wildlife, including coyotes, bobcats and foxes. If you see one… Mountain lions avoid humans with their innate reclusive, nocturnal behavior; however, there have been very rare encounters with animals habituated to the presence of people. First of all, do not run. “[Fast movement is] like a cat and
a string,” Haynes said. The mountain lion will feel the innate instinct to chase the prey, making mountain bikers and trail joggers at higher risk for attack. Keep young children close and in sight at all times. Never crouch down to grab a rock or other type of defense, but if possible, throw an item at hand, such as a water bottle. Back away slowly and fight back if necessary. Ease your mind with the fact that there has never been a fatal mountain lion attack in Arizona history, according to Haynes. These beautiful cats deserve our respect for their role in the desert ecosystem and in other habitats across the Americas. Consider seeing this elusive species a special treat, as sometimes even the most dedicated scientists have not been lucky enough to view one in the wild.

SYCAMORE
FROM OUTER SPACE During Apollo 14’s 1971 mission to the moon, the seeds of five species of trees were taken along for the super-atmospheric ride. One of those seeds returned from the mission and made its home right here at the UA BY BAILEY BELLAVANCE The Daily Wildcat

etween Kuiper Space Sciences and Flandrau Science Center and Planetarium sits a seemingly unimpressive sycamore tree that has extraterrestrial origins. Apollo 14 astronaut Stuart Roosa chose to take 500 tree seeds of five different species on his Apollo mission, which orbited the moon 34 times before coming safely back to Earth. The seeds were planted around the world in 1976 and dubbed “Bicentennial Moon Trees” in honor of America’s 200th anniversary. A ceremony for the tree took place on Oct. 30 and was the collaborative effort of three UA departments: the Campus Arboretum, the Poetry Center and the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory. Several UA directors spoke at the event including Tanya Quist, the director of the Campus Arboretum, Tyler Meier, the director of the UA Poetry Center, and Tim Swindle, the director of the Lunar and Planetary Laboratories. The keynote speaker was Jack Roosa, the son of astronaut Roosa. The ceremony began with words

from Quist, who spoke about the Arboretum’s goal to promote stewardship and conservation both for the UA campus and the world. Protecting and preserving the Moon Tree is an important goal for the Arboretum. “The Arboretum has a particular interest in the Moon Tree; it’s one of our heritage trees,” Quist said. “We feel really proud of [the Moon Tree] because it’s surviving. … I think that’s really attributed to our excellence in landscape management and excellent stewardship.” The keynote speaker, Jack Roosa, shared tales of his father and addressed some of the mystery surrounding the moon trees. Jack’s father was a smoke jumper—a firefighter who parachutes into remote regions—and always had a special place in his heart for the U.S. Forest Service. Together with Edward Cliff, the Forest Service chief, Roosa packed up 500 seeds into his personal preference kit to be taken to the moon. Jack Roosa also shared the mission of David Williams, a NASA employee who is trying to find and document all of the moon trees. There have only been around 100 moon trees located
to date, 27 of which have already perished, and one which sits humbly on our campus. As for the mysteries of the moon trees, Jack Roosa told the audience of two moon trees that were planted before NASA officially released the seeds and about an alleged sequoia moon tree in San Dimas, California, when Roosa did not carry any sequoia seeds on Apollo 14. Jack Roosa ended his talk by saying what a privilege it was to stand next to the unassuming tree that his father flew to the moon. “The trees are the only living thing to commemorate man’s most impressive achievement,” he said. The LPL has been closely tied with the Apollo program. “Preparing for the Apollo landing was a big part of how the LPL got funded, and the tree is a tangible piece of that history—a living representation of all the things that were going on [at the LPL] 50 years ago,” Swindle said. The night concluded with Meier’s reading of the poem “Sycamore” by Wendell Berry. — Follow Bailey Bellavance @WCbellavance

Course fees a necessary evil BY greg castro
The Daily Wildcat
Working as a student employee in an equipment lab has become a bit depressing as of late. With our operations budget slashed, we’re now essentially expected to do more with nothing. Many departments throughout the university that require additional resources for coursework no longer receive funds to this end from the university itself. Instead, these operations are to be paid for with a combination of increased student course fees and grant money. The blame for such a dilemma lies squarely on the shoulders of the state legislature and Gov. Doug Ducey, who in April decried, “While universities provide a critical and important public service, state support is not and cannot be the only financial driver for the future growth of our university system.” He then promptly cut another $99 million from the Arizona university system’s budget. Unfortunately, the harsh (and slimy)
political realities of our state leadership are unlikely to change any time soon. And while I wanted to write that article, the lack of quality sources discussing the transformative potential of “Mad Max”style college student mobs has led me to try and argue a different point: Increased course fees, though undesirable, are a necessary evil. Tuition has already increased a whopping 80 percent since 2008, making Arizona the state with the highest-climbing tuition in the country. (Maybe we can make money by starting a depressing statistics museum.) With the vast majority of that sweet, sweet tuition money going toward faculty salaries, it’s unrealistic to expect any of these funds to end up supporting anything actually beneficial or immediately useful within your department. Thus: the need to increase course fees. Within the film department, for example, Bachelor of Arts students end up paying around $200 in course fees over their four years. Bachelor of Fine Arts students, whose degree emphasizes film production over producing or film studies, spend about $1,000. This money goes toward updating the software and hardware in our computer labs, replacing and buying new production equipment and keeping our editing and
sound suites functional. While this may all sound well and good, consider that these fees have not increased in 10 years. This means that the current course fees are out of touch with modern production costs, with the move in software from a licensing to a subscription model in recent years being a prime example. Additionally, course fees were only ever designed to cover half of all operations costs, with the department’s operations budget then filling in the gaps. Now with no operations budget, the film department must find a way to pay for the same amount of equipment with half of an already outdated budget. The increase in course fees, as proposed in a Nov. 6 student and faculty meeting, would cost next year’s class 50 percent more in fees over their four years. For Bachelors of Fine Arts, this means paying about $1,500 over four years. And while many students who heard of this increase were immediately outraged, I can’t help but think of how I tried to help my boss order just two new batteries and
“
a new CF card for some XF-100s at work today, only to discover that this would cost us $400. For film students at least, the math works out. Without access to a departmental equipment lab, our films would easily run us in excess of $10,000 per project, as opposed to the $2,000-4,000 it costs us to make our thesis films now. Paying $1,500 over the course of four years to insure that you never have to pay $10,000 as a senior just makes sense. Other students in other departments might find that their numbers don’t add up quite as well. It’s important that faculty remain transparent when it comes to course fees so that students can judge for themselves if the extra cost—and indeed, the degree itself—is worth it.
The increase in course fees, as proposed in a Nov. 6 student and faculty meeting, would cost next year’s class 50 percent more in fees over their four years.”

Callisto app: rape a two-strike offense by Hailey Dickson The Daily Wildcat
O
ne in five women have been or will be sexually assaulted during their time in college. Unfortunately, a number this high means that there are also vast numbers of rapists on college campuses. According to a Kaiser Family Foundation poll, only 11 percent of college sexual assault victims reported the crime to police or college authorities, meaning the huge majority of rapists go unpunished. There are many reasons rape victims may choose not to report the crime committed against them. Many of those reasons exemplify broader institutional barriers
established by rape culture. Most often, women are not sure if what happened to them constitutes rape, do not know how or to whom to report the crime, are worried officials won’t take their claims seriously or don’t want to draw attention to themselves or the rapist. Callisto, a new website and app in its pilot phase at some college campuses, aims to reduce the barriers assault victims face when reporting their rapes. First, Callisto provides a platform for rape victims to document their rape incident in writing and mark a time stamp as soon as they choose to do so. The document is then stored indefinitely and kept private until (and if) the victim decides to proceed. Such a feature allows victims to record details of the incident quickly, accurately and non-invasively. Storing this information for later recall prevents a victim from having
to repeatedly describe to authorities the same traumatic event. Further, having written documentation of a rape lessens the unfortunate likelihood that a victim would face bias when coming forward with their report in person. Next, Callisto gives users the option to send their report directly to the title IX coordinator on their campus. This feature saves victims the often-traumatic step of having to navigate their campus’s legal system on their own. It also provides officials who manage rape cases the necessary information they will need to move forward with investigations. Callisto’s last and most unique feature is that, rather than reporting their rape directly, a user can store the report in a database, where it will only be reported to officials if or when a second accusation is made against the same rapist. The idea of the “second strike”
reporting is based on the fact that most rapists offend repeatedly. In fact, Callisto’s creators claim that 60 percent of campus rapes could be prevented if rapists were caught after their second victim. A user might utilize this feature if they’re not sure how to classify what happened to them, don’t believe they have enough “evidence” to make a report, or believe their rapist may not hurt anyone else. While it has its value, this feature is what makes the app a little problematic. Can you imagine if any other violent crime was reported in this way? Can you imagine if the perpetrator was given a second chance to hurt another and only pursued when it was too late? If the option to store the user’s report until it is “matched” with a similar accusation makes victims feel more comfortable reporting the crime in the first place, that is great. But promoting this option as more
innovative or preferable to other reporting methods delegitimizes the first victim’s report, treating it as if that account is only valid if it can be confirmed by another tragedy. Callisto provides rape victims with a sense of agency by giving them options, and should be lauded for its attempts to reduce barriers to reporting and creating a space for dialogue about campus rape. However, too many people already fear that their own rape is not “serious” enough to warrant prosecuting their rapist. Rapists never deserve the benefit of the doubt. One rape is one too many, and any app or tool used for reporting rape, empowering victims or educating the republic should reflect that.

Braham could not possibly believe he could win this lawsuit. He represented himself in court against Swift’s high-class legal team, who could probably take him down with one single blow. Maybe he didn’t hire himself a lawyer because he knew that he had no chance. He soon joined the ranks of those who sought to bring Swift down and failed miserably. The judge even had some fun with the ruling, quoting Taylor Swift songs in her final statement, “At present, the Court is not saying that Braham can never, ever, ever get his case back in court. But, for now, we have got problems, and the Court is not sure Braham can solve them.” Maybe this wasn’t a loss for him, though. Maybe this entire scheme was a huge publicity stunt and the high really was worth the pain. If that is the case, then it really worked for him. Two months ago, no one had heard of Braham, but now his name is up in lights as that “guy who tried to sue Taylor Swift.” I don’t know about you, but to me that seems like an awfully likely story. No publicity is bad publicity. At least that’s what people say.

GOTTA CATCH ALL THE LATEST ISSUES!
ca t
eople do really crazy things for their 15 minutes of fame. Some people post ridiculous videos. Some people pull crazy stunts. Some people go as far as to commit crimes. Some people decide to sue mega pop stars for $40 million. Earlier this month, an R&B artist named Jesse Braham, who goes by Jesse Graham, filed a $42 million lawsuit against Taylor Swift for stealing the lyrics to her hit song “Shake It Off ” from his 2013 song “Haters Gonna Hate.” He also demanded credit on her album for being a writer of “Shake It Off.” Let’s look at the lyrics to Braham’s song: “Haters gone hate, playas gone play. Watch out for them fakers, they’ll fake you every day.” The lyrics to “Shake It Off ” go: “Cause the players gonna play play play play play, and the haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate.” Later on, she sings, “the fakers gonna fake fake fake fake fake.” Braham claims that she stole the entire chorus line to “Haters Gonna Hate,” and that without his song, “Shake It Off ”
laws. He doesn’t own “haters gonna hate,” and he doesn’t own “players gonna play.” Additionally, the songs sound absolutely nothing alike. While “Shake It Off ” has an upbeat, pop rhythm, “Haters Gonna Hate” is a slow, bluestype song. As a completely different genre, completely different style and with all but three similar, common phrases, how did Braham think his song was the precursor to T-swizzle’s? Moreover, how did he think he could beat the almighty Swift in a legal battle? Anyone who listened to both songs could instantly tell that they are completely different, and there would be no chance of the lawsuit actually going through, so was it all just for attention? Given the lengths people go to chase fame, they will be ecstatic even for bad media if it gets their name out there.

would never exist. To start off, the phrase “haters gonna hate” is not uncommon at all. In fact, it’s so common that it has been used in colloquial language for years before Swift’s or Braham’s songs came to be. If anything, the phrase originated from a 2001 song called “Playas Gon’ Play” by the group 3LW. The chorus line of this song begins with, “Playas, they gonna play. And haters, they gonna hate.” If we’re using Braham’s logic here, then he must have stolen the lines to his song from 3LW’s. Despite mentioning haters, players and fakers, the lyrics are completely different. If you hear every album and listen to the radio, you will always find songs with similar lines in them—more similar than these two.

Player safety taking a hit in Pac-12 BY matt wall
The Daily Wildcat
T
he referees made a key mistake in Arizona football’s upset victory over then No. 10 Utah on Saturday night. They missed a targeting call—a play that cost Arizona quarterback Anu Solomon. Solomon attempted to slide feet-first to avoid being tackled with just over nine minutes remaining in the game. Instead, Utah’s Jason Fanaika hit a defenseless Solomon and appeared to lead with his helmet. “We have pictures of it,” Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez said. “I think the league is going to review it.” Solomon left the game due to another suspected concussion. The injury poses a possible end to the starting quarterback’s season, although he is currently day-to-day, according to Rodriguez. According to Rule 9-1-3 of the American Football Coaches Association, “No player shall target and initiate contact against an opponent with the crown (top) of his helmet. When in question, it is a foul.” A foul is right. Arizona fans went ballistic and loud boos were heard throughout the stadium as the play was shown repeatedly on the screen. The play clock for the next play began to tick down and Arizona was forced to call a timeout so trainers could help Solomon off the field. Rodriguez said Solomon was sitting on the field and didn’t respond to him. As Solomon exited the game, Fanaika didn’t. In fact, he would finish with five total tackles, tied for third in the game among Utah players. Arizona officials have since filed a formal complaint with the Pac-12 Conference

following the incident. “From where I was sitting from, it looked like it could have been helmet to helmet,” Rodriguez said. “The pictures show that it could have been a possible target. We are going to send it to the league. I don’t know what they will do about it right now, but they will at least talk to the officials about it whether they agree with us or not.” Longtime Arizona Daily Star columnist Greg Hansen chimed in on Twitter with his thoughts on the hit. “Not trying to over-react, but
that illegal hit to Anu’s head could end his career. It’s a violent game,” Hansen posted on Twitter. A violent game for sure. Will it end his career? Probably not. But concussions have been a topic of discussion everywhere in the media. Will Smith’s film “Concussion,” for instance, will release Christmas day this year. The film is about concussions and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. Solomon may not play against rival ASU in the Territorial Cup on Saturday, which will be Arizona’s final game of the
regular season. One side has reportedly taken this too far, however. “Utah DL Jason Fanaika says he has received hate mail from Arizona fans for his hit on Anu Solomon that knocked him out of the game,” Patrick Kinahan from The Zone Sports Network reported on Twitter. That, my friends, is taking it too far. UCLA defender Jacob TuiotiMariner nearly made a similar play on Washington State’s quarterback Luke Falk on the same night Solomon went down. Falk was immediately
taken to the sidelines and wasn’t given his helmet for the rest of the first half. Fans at the game called for a targeting hit, but the Pac-12 referees did not call one. Targeting became a rule in 2008 in order to improve player safety, according to the Associated Press. Two in one night in one conference says a lot—maybe a little bit too much. I thought we were trying to improve player safety, not hurt it. — Follow Matt Wall @mwall20

Trier 2.0 could be the real deal The five-star recruit has the likes of Aaron Gordon and Stanley Johnson to live up to, but Sean Miller says Allonzo Trier is the hardest worker he’s ever seen BY Matt Wall
The Daily Wildcat
Once called the most unstoppable scorer in high school basketball, Allonzo Trier did not start his college career as he may have liked. Trier scored just eight points and shot 1-for-10 from the field, missing five 3-pointers in 26 minutes against Pacific. For an individual who averaged 26.4 points per game in his senior year at Findlay College Prep, that just doesn’t cut it. His teammates told him to just be himself and not to let the first game get to him. “Never been so impatient to get to a Monday ever in my life,” Trier wrote on Twitter, anticipating his upcoming game against Bradley. To all who knew Trier, vengeance would only be a matter of time. That’s when Allonzo Trier 2.0 broke loose. The 6-foot-6 freshman guard out of Seattle, Washington, proved why he was the No. 18 recruit in the country Monday night against Bradley, when he dropped 22 points, grabbed five rebounds and made all 14 of his free throw attempts. “The thing I love about Allonzo is he’s the hardest worker I’ve ever been around,” Arizona head coach Sean Miller said. “No one is in the gym earlier, no one stays longer and no one is more consistent than him. You think [when] he went 1-for-10 he must [have been] really worried. Nope. If he had an 11th shot, he
would have taken it.” What a compliment. Miller has seen his fair share of stud athletes and hard workers in his time in the game of basketball and as head coach at Arizona. Aaron Gordon, Rondae HollisJefferson, T.J. McConnell, Nick Johnson, Stanley Johnson, Solomon Hill and Derrick Williams: what a list of players Miller has coached at Arizona, just to name a few. Interestingly enough, Trier did not attempt a 3-point shot against the Braves. Instead, he scored eight points in the paint and his other 14 came on freebies. He was a big reason why McKale Center became foul call central and the Wildcats managed the most free throw attempts (52) at home in program history. His 14-for-14 mark from the line was the second best in McKale Center history. “I think you guys see the value of Allonzo Trier offensively,” Miller said. “He has a knack of being able to get to the line.” There’s a reason why his Twitter handle reads @ISOzo_LOE, and he proved it to Wildcat fans as he got the basket often and crossed up countless Bradley defenders. “If you just follow him around for a week, he is on a mission to be a great player,” Miller said. Trier has come off the bench in the Wildcats’ first two games of the season. That won’t last much longer if he keeps up this scoring pace. Whose place would he take in the
starting lineup? That depends on Miller. Perhaps Trier could be left as the x-factor for Arizona in the sixthman role, sort of like Gabe York last season. Trier has shot 95 percent from the charity stripe in his first two games in an Arizona uniform. Now, the comparisons have to come into account. In three years, three different freshmen have made the difference for Arizona basketball. With all things considered, those are Gordon, Johnson and now Trier. “We’ve had so many good players that have rolled through here since I’ve been here,” fourth-year Arizona center Kaleb Tarczewski said. “He did a really good job pushing the tempo for us and leading the break. If he can continue to do that, the sky is the limit for him and our team.” And with that, Trier has potential; it’s why Miller recruited him in the first place. He is an explosive scorer and has the ability to get to the basket, make defenders miss and hit big open shots. But every day has been a day of learning, as they have to be when playing at Arizona. “Learning every day in practice,” Trier said. “The practice is the most important thing for me. The best way to learn is from experience. Every time I take the court, whether it is practice or a game, I’m learning.” Tyler Baker/The Daily Wildcat

‘Cats offense ready to attack Boise State BY Ezra Amacher The Daily Wildcat
After cruising to double-digit victories in each of its first two games this season, Arizona men’s basketball head coach Sean Miller expects more of a challenge Thursday night when the Wildcats host Boise State. The matchup, slated to tip off at 6:30 p.m., is part of the DirecTV Wooden Legacy—a tournament that officially takes
place in Southern California next weekend. No. 12 Arizona is coming off a 90-60 win over Bradley in which freshman Allonzo Trier led the team with 22 points. Four other players scored in double digits and the Wildcats collectively shot 54 percent from the field. “So much of these games is about learning,” Miller said after the win. “I thought our team grew up [Monday night] and [we] learned a lot about ourselves.”
The victory over Bradley served as a tune-up for Arizona before it takes on the reigning Mountain West Conference champion Broncos. Boise State enters Thursday with one loss already under its belt—a 74-72 defeat at the hands of Montana—but the Broncos feature no shortage of horsepower. Led by sixth-year head coach Leon Rice, Boise State reached the opening round of the NCAA
Tournament last season before falling to Dayton in a close loss. “We think they’re one of the best teams in the country,” Miller said of Boise State. “They have a great coach and a really terrific offensive system.” Three starters return from a team that finished 25-9, including preseason All-Mountain West First Team members Anthony Drmic and James Webb III. Drmic plays on the wing while Webb is a traditional power forward.
Drmic, a redshirt senior, led Boise State in scoring each of his first three seasons. The Australian native suffered a season-ending ankle injury last year, but was granted a fifth year of eligibility. Drmic and Webb both scored 22 points to lead the Broncos to a 101-81 victory over NAU on Monday night. Webb, a 6-foot-9 junior, also recorded 11 rebounds to earn a double-double.

Power Rankings: men’s basketball 1
Arizona — The Wildcats have opened up their season 2-0 with both wins coming in dominating fashion. Arizona also extended its home winning streak to 40 games as the Wildcats look to defend their Pac-12 Conference title. Sean Miller recently threw shade at UCLA and its crowds during his post-game press conference, so it was an eventful week in Tucson.
2
California — The Golden Bears opened up the season strong with two wins. Tyrone Wallace was the first Pac-12 Player of the Week for the third year in a row. An impressive feat for Cal nonetheless.
3
Oregon — After joining the top 25 this past week, the Ducks showed they deserved it by knocking off No. 20 Baylor. Former Pac-12 Player of the Year Joe Young may be gone, but the Ducks are proving that they have what it takes to contend in the Pac-12.
4
Utah — Although the No. 16 Utes are currently undefeated, they probably would have liked to have won by a bigger margin. Utah better tighten up as it faces Wichita State and Duke next month without its former star Delon Wright.
5
Stanford — While its football team blew its chances at the College Football Playoff, the Cardinal basketball team is quietly 2-0. Stanford’s matchup against No. 11 Villanova next week should be an accurate measurement of how good the team will be this season.
6
USC — The Trojans have lit up the scoreboards so far this season as they have averaged 92 points per game so far in their two victories. Their matchup next week against Wichita State will be interesting, as it will most likely push that number down.
7
BY IVAN LEONARD The Daily Wildcat
10
Oregon State — The Beavers are on pace to have more wins than the football team by the end of this week. They are under the radar and could surprise a few people, potentially making a run at the tourney this season.
UCLA — The Bruins kicked off their basketball season by losing in overtime to Monmouth. If the Bruins are struggling against Monmouth and Cal Poly, one can only imagine what Kentucky, Gonzaga and UNC will do to them next month.
8
Colorado — The Buffaloes were so close to upsetting No. 7 Iowa State, but they were unable to pull it off. Fortunately, the Buffs beat Auburn on Tuesday to become the last Pac-12 team with a win. Hopefully their basketball team will have fans forgetting about coach Mike MacIntyre and his football team, whose season has been pretty much hopeless.
Washington — The Huskies opened their season in the most interesting way as they tipped off in China against Texas. Naturally, Bill Walton announced this overseas matchup as the Huskies defeated Texas 77-71.
9
Washington State — The Cougars opened the season with an 8270 victory over NAU with Josh Hawkinson leading the way. The junior forward had 15 points and 11 rebounds as the Cougars look to make the tourney this year. Beating the Lumberjacks by just 12 points won’t cut it later down the road.
11
12
ASU — The Bobby Hurley era is off to a poor start, as the Sun Devils lost to Sacramento State. Fortunately, Hurley got his first career victory as a Sun Devil, defeating Belmont 83-74. They are going to need the curtain of distraction more than ever if they want to make a push for the tournament.

Stoian and company ready for round two BY Ryan Kelapire The Daily Wildcat
Arizona women’s soccer advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament after defeating Northern Colorado 2-0 last week at Murphey Field at Mulcahy Soccer Stadium. The Wildcats had never faced Northern Colorado before, but they will be facing a team they’re quite familiar with in the second round— No. 12 Santa Clara—and they’ll be doing it with some added help. The Wildcats’ leading scorer Gabi Stoian practiced fully Tuesday and is expected to play, barring a lastminute setback, Amato said. She has missed the team’s last four games with a quad injury . Arizona (13-5-2, 6-4-1 Pac-12 Conference) faced off against Santa Clara (14-5-2, 6-1-2 West Coast Conference) in August, when the Wildcats came away with a 2-1 win at home. It was a surprising loss for Santa Clara, given its storied soccer tradition. “We didn’t let the history of Santa Clara—that [it has] won a lot of games over the past 29 years that Jerry [Smith] has been the coach— bother us,” Arizona head coach Tony Amato said. “And we were able to compete and believe and work hard, and I thought that made it so that we put them under some pressure when we were able to get the ball into their area of the field.”
Basketball from page 20
Boise State’s biggest trouble against Arizona may come on the defensive side of the ball. While two games is a small sample size, the Broncos had trouble slowing down a pair of mid-major offenses. Expect the Broncos to come out in a zone defense—the preferred method from most schools of slowing down Miller’s system. The Wildcats will need to spread the ball around the perimeter and thus make 3-point attempts to combat the zone. Arizona struggled mightily from behind the arc in the first half of the Bradley game, making just one of nine attempts. The Wildcats heated up in the second half, however, when Gabe York drained a pair of 3s, followed by an outside make from Parker Jackson-Cartwright. “We have a good shooting

Arizona midfielder Gabi Stoian (9) defends the ball from two Stanford opponents on Oct. 4. Stoian has missed four games because of injury but returned to practice ahead of the Wildcats’ second round NCAA Tournament game this week.
Santa Clara scored early in that meeting, but Stoian countered to tie it before halftime. Cece Bilginer then scored the game-winning goal for Arizona in the 68th minute. Not only did the Wildcats win, but they also outshot Santa Clara 15-9. “We’re going to have to do that again,” Amato said. That will be easier said than done, however.
“It’s a totally different game,” Amato said. “It’s the NCAA Tournament. It’s a different situation. We played the first weekend of the season, we played at our place and both teams were still trying to find their way a little bit.” Not only did the Broncos find their way, as they won the West Coast Conference and beat Long Beach State in the first round of the NCAA
Tournament, they will be the ones with a home-field advantage this time. The game is technically located at a “neutral” site, but with Santa Clara being just a short car ride from its location in Palo Alto, California, it’s a virtual home game for the Broncos. Still, the Wildcats are confident they can beat Santa Clara for a second time.
“I expect that it’s going to be a really hard game because they’re a very good team,” Arizona midfielder Jaden DeGracie said. “But we beat them early in the season and we can do it again. We know that we can battle with them when we play our best.” Arizona will have something else going for it too. Despite missing four games, Stoian leads the team in goals scored (6), assists (8), shots taken (56) and shots on goal (24). One of those goals was against this same Santa Clara team. The Wildcats have a better chance of advancing to the Sweet Sixteen with Stoian in the lineup, and it would be just the second time in program history to do so. “It’s just super exciting,” DeGracie said. “You just can’t not be excited to be in the NCAA Tournament, and it just shows that all the hard work we put in on and off the field and in the weight room is all coming together. This is the moment we play for.” The match will kickoff on Thursday at 5:30 p.m at Laird Q. Cagan Stadium. Follow @ArizonaWSoccer for live updates throughout the game. The winner will play on Nov. 27 against the victor of the Stanford vs. BYU game.

team,” Miller said after the game. “Sometimes you get off to a really hot streak shooting the ball, but deep down as a coach, you know you’re not a very good shooting team and eventually that plays itself out.” But Miller insisted that isn’t the case. “We can shoot. It’s a matter of us settling in, taking good ones, getting a lot of the new guys more game experience,” he said. Attacking the rim has thus far been Arizona’s forte, with Trier and Ryan Anderson the leading instigators of drawing contact. If the Wildcats can add a balanced shooting attack, Arizona may just buck the Broncos without much of a fight. The game will be televised on Pac12 Networks.
