New weekend, new Hotel Congress

E

Lior Attias

very Saturday night, the Hotel Congress in Downtown Tucson puts on an event called Saturdaze, a free party hosting over 1,500 people that involves an eclectic mix of music, several DJs, copious amounts of liquor and sometimes snow machines.

David Slutes, entertainment director for Hotel Congress, describes the weekly events as “just awesome.” He and his three DJs plan each Saturdaze with care. They set up one indoor stage and one outdoor stage and often have another small party going on in conjunction with the main event.

“You get this really cool, sweaty night-club dance inside, and then an open air space where you can dance or do whatever,” Slutes said. Each stage has its own DJ and its own atmosphere.

Slutes said that his central DJs, Sid the Kid and Bob Felix, are the anchors of the event. When selecting DJs, Slutes looked for the perfect blend.

“They’re very different,” Slutes said. “Bob [Felix] was always just an indie guy and sort of a little more underground with a traditional old vibe. Sid was, I thought, the best DJ in town. He can play anything and everything.”

Felix just knows what people want and can play just about anything, including some “very rare cool stuff,” Slutes said.

“They’re on top of their game to say the least,” said Matthew Baquet, booking liaison and DJ for Congress.

Slutes said he holds a deep appreciation for his artists. He and Baquet collaborated together to create Saturdaze.

“I was DJing originally but fired myself because Matt was so much better,” Slutes said.

In addition, Saturdaze integrates smaller themed parties into each event. Just this month, it had an underwear theme, “retro days” and an Alpine Lodge Party, which featured

The Daily Wildcat is an independent student newspaper published Monday through Friday during the fall and spring semesters at the University of Arizona. It is distributed on campus and throughout Tucson with a circulation of 10,000. The function of the Daily Wildcat is to disseminate news to the community and to encourage an exchange of ideas.

snow machines, a bonfire and a dress code of ski gear. On St. Patrick’s Day, the event will be hosted by local muralist Joe Pagac and features leprechauns, bag pipes and green beer.

“We insist on always having these other parties within the main event, just to keep things weird,” Slutes said.

The dynamic nature of the event is what makes it so unique, Baquet said. The wide variety of Hotel Congress lies not only in its physical structure, but also in the music selection for each evening.

“There’s improved visuals and all the new fresh music, because we’re always trying to be better,” Baquet said.

“But [we also play] stuff from the past that you may have forgotten about, that will make you just die when you hear the DJ spin it.”

Hotel Congress’ multi-faceted nature reflects the town in which it resides, Baquet said.

“A special thing about the Tucson music scene is that there’s a lot of deep-rooted things that are just starting to blossom,” Baquet said. “It’s very organic.”

Baquet said that what makes Saturdaze stand out is its nonstop fun atmosphere, no matter what the day. “[Saturdaze] can be a retro party, crazy club fest, you never know,” Baquet said. “That’s the kind of shit that really sticks out in my mind. There’s nothing I can complain about. I DJed in the rain this week and it was still awesome. And hell yeah, people still came. It’s free and it’s crazy. I feel very lucky to be in the position that I am in.”

Hotel Congress prides itself on being a space that anyone can enjoy, Slutes said.

“We don’t want to be like other douchebag bars; it’s not our sensibility,” Slutes said. “We want people to love music and love the art of it and love the culture. It seems to be a good strategy for us.”

razilian culture will be in the spotlight this Saturday at the annual Brazilian Carnaval, mixing ageold traditions with contemporary celebration through music, dance and costumes.

Held at Club XS, the celebration starts at 9 p.m. and, in traditional carnaval style, will continue through the early hours of the morning. The Brazilian Carnaval in Tucson has been an annual event for over 30 years and attracts attendees with all different backgrounds.

his Friday at 6 p.m. in the Arizona Room of the Student Union Memorial Center, the Student Engagement Council will be hosting an event to get people to meet each other in real life: speed dating.

The event is called Analog Tinder, and while the title reflects the infamous app, the event itself is in response to what many feel are the negative effects the app has had on college students’ social and dating lives.

“Girls are going to think of it as speed dating hoping to find a boyfriend, while guys are going to try to get as many numbers as they can,” said Jamie Shindler, a prebusiness sophomore.

The curators of the event, however, feel differently. Their goal is to get students to see past these pressures and meet each other organically.

“People are constantly trying to connect,” said Allen Womble, student engagement coordinator at Arizona Student Unions.

He said he sees the impact of dating apps such as Tinder, OKCupid and Match.com as taking away from the human experience of simply meeting other people.

“Why don’t we leave all the devices and step outside the internet?” Womble asked.

Alissa Hatfield, a pre-physiology sophomore, said that she too thinks that people should get out and communicate instead of relying on electronics.

“We love to have students meeting and doing something different,” Womble said.

“Back in the day, speed dating was [as popular as today’s dating apps].”

The pressure to meet a significant other is actually alleviated in a casual, fun setting, he said.

“It’s just a new experience and a way to do something maybe you’d never thought you would do,” Womble said.

Zoe Webman, a creative writing senior, is chair of the Student Engagement Council and head of the Analog Tinder program. She sees the event as casual and fun as well.

“We wanted to have something for Valentine’s Day, and we thought it would be cool for people to meet each other in a romantic-but-appropriate setting,” Webman said.

The Student Engagement Council picked the name Analog Tinder for its current appeal.

“We thought of speed dating, but that’s kind of an outdated term,” Webman said.

When asked what students should expect, Webman mentioned that it may be a bit awkward at first, but that by the end, it will be worth it as students open up.

“They will get to know a lot of people in a short amount of time,” Webman said. “It’s one-minute conversations with another person, the bell rings and everyone switches seats and then they meet a new person.”

In short, that’s the point: simply meeting new people without a screen between them.

Shake it off to these Grammy nominees

T

he Grammy Awards are this Sunday, and the list of nominees boast some of the most memorable and wellwritten songs from the past year.

If you’re in need of some tunes or want to musically prepare yourself for Sunday’s award show, here is a playlist of Grammynominated jams to rock your weekend.

“Shake It Off” — Taylor Swift If the U.S. had a royal family, Swift would be its princess. Take the woman’s advice and shake off those bad vibes from the school week so you can enjoy your weekend hater-free.

“Fancy” — Iggy Azalea feat. Charli XCX Whether you’re in Los Angeles or Tokyo this weekend, nothing will psyche you

up better than this pop hit. Even if you’re fancy and you already know, nothing will boost your confidence before a night out like “Fancy.”

“Turn Down for What” — DJ Snake & Lil Jon If a college student goes out to a club or bar during the weekend and “Turn Down for What” isn’t played at least once after midnight, did the college student really go out at all?

“Everything is Awesome!!!” — Tegan and Sara feat. The Lonely Island You’ve hit that high point during the night and nothing can bring you down. If you’re feeling awesome, there’s nothing quite like a fun, catchy song to keep the good vibes going.

“Drunk In Love” — Beyoncé feat. Jay Z If Taylor Swift is America’s princess, then Jay Z and Beyoncé are the king and queen.

If you’re ending the night with that special someone, this song will slow you down just enough to get you in the mood.

“Stay With Me” — Sam Smith If your special someone is someone especially cute you happened to bring home last night and you weren’t lucky enough to get it on to Bey and Jay, Smith’s heart-wrenching song may just fit the tone of the morning after.

“The Moon Song” — Karen O This raw song from the “Her” soundtrack will soothe you to sleep after an exciting night out or a relaxing evening in. It’s the perfect song for solitude or just someone feeling a million miles away.

“Take Me to Church” — Hozier Whether or not worship is part of your plans, Hozier’s deep voice and perceptive lyrics will make you appreciate the lyrical genius and impeccable performances of this year’s Grammy nominees.

Bob Dylan tangled up in Ol’ Blue Eyes caren badtke

B

ob Dylan is primarily a songwriter.

Frank Sinatra, America’s swing sweetheart, was an entertainer; he didn’t often bother with songwriting, only contributing here and there. Taking on songs written by professional lyricists for no one in particular, Sinatra made them his own. Today, these songs are closely associated with him, despite having been sung by so many before and after.

On his 36th studio album, Shadows in the Night, Dylan takes on these songs in what could be described a Sinatra tribute album. Funnily enough, despite having written so many songs over the years, Dylan has always managed to keep the audience at a distance; his personal, rugged and increasingly slack vocals didn’t do much except create the illusion that they were witnessing something intimate. The opposite could be said for Sinatra, a master of expressing feelings through lyrics so genuine they never left a doubt about authenticity.

Putting aside the obvious differences in the nature and style of these musicians, it is not that big of a surprise that Dylan now decided to pay tribute to Sinatra, especially since he’s been covering some of Sinatra’s songs live here and there. On his 10-track, 35-minute LP, Dylan doesn’t perform the usual suspects. Instead, he dug deeper into Sinatra’s discography, perhaps choosing the ones closest to his heart to reveal something about himself, albeit in the words of 1940s songwriters like Johnny Mercer and Irving Berlin. Being a singer-songwriter, Dylan once helped make these professionals obsolete.

On the record, Dylan maintains a constant, stripped-down style.

“It was all done live,” Dylan writes on his website. “Maybe one or two takes. No overdubbing. No vocal booths. No headphones.

No separate tracking, and, for the most part, mixed as it was recorded.” Instead of covering these songs, like so many have done before, his goal was to breathe new life into them.

Shadows in the Night was produced by Dylan himself, though credited as Jack Frost, a pseudonym he sporadically uses. It was

recorded in the Capital Studios’ big echo chambers without modern equipment in exactly the same order the songs would later end up on the record.

The result of the steady orchestra-style combined with Dylan’s signature rasp will be enjoyable to fans, and the incredibly wellwritten songs can teach the lyricists among us a thing or two about kitschy expression of feelings.

Not bothering to target younger generations, 73-year-old Dylan gave a long and rare interview to the American Association for Retired Persons, even randomly giving away the record for free. Asked what Sinatra would say about the tribute, Dylan told AARP’s reporter that he would probably congratulate him on having pulled off the songs with a fivepiece band.

“He’d be proud in a certain way,” Dylan said.

‘All your games are belong to the UA’ A video game archive at the UA allows gamers to rediscover old and rare games

I

ivana goldtooth

f long nights of staring at a bright television in the darkness as you attempt to beat the boss in the final fight of a game still lingers in your memory, take a trip to a 40-year progression of the gaming world tucked away in an archive on the UA campus.

Co-founded in 1999 by Ken McAllister and Judd Ruggill, the Learning Games Initiative Research Archive boasts a whopping number of over 12,000 games with a 100-plus count of game systems currently housed in its archives.

Ruggill and McAllister met by chance when Ruggill was a graduate student at the UA at the same time when McAllister was a friend’s dissertation adviser at the UA department of English.

After a while, the two realized they both shared a love for games.

“Most [games] are physical copies,” McAllister said. He said that the copies are available to use and rent for those with research interests. Not all archives like this are open for public access; there are some that are private or have limited access.

Along with games and consoles, the archive also has research articles, publications and other game-related items. A recent addition to the archive is English professor Ander Monson’s new book, “A Letter to a Future Lover: Marginalia, Errata, Secrets, Inscriptions and Other Ephemera Found in Libraries,” which features some mentions of Monson experience in the archive.

“The amount of things that are game-related are fascinating to me,” said Ruggill, now a professor of communications at ASU.

BRITTAN BATES/THE DAILY WILDCAT

KEN MCALLISTER shows the Learning Games Initiative Research Archive that is stored in the Transitional Office Building on Thursday. The archive houses thousands of vintage, rare and new video games.

When one has a job that works with games, one would think that there would be some down time to play said games. However, McAllister said that he spends more time working on research interests than playing.

“I did [finish] playing ‘Destiny’ a while ago,” McAllister said.

He said he’s been a gamer long before founding the archive and started studying games 15 years ago.

Since beginning to study games, McAllister said that he has learned lots of things about the labor practice of the game industry from the laborers rather than hearing the executives’ perspective.

venture out and decided to jog down here one day and [have] been here ever since then.

How long have you been a bartender?

I’ve worked here bartending for 10 years, probably.

In that time, what’s the weirdest, strangest thing you’ve seen go down at the bar?

Just when you think you’ve seen it all, you see something again so it’s hard to say. I don’t know. I think the weirdest one was some girl tried to steal my tip that somebody left and she called the cops on me.

On you?

Yeah. Well, she met a guy here on a blind date kind of a thing and he left and she tried to use the tip money that he left to buy herself drinks. I’m like, “No, that’s my money,” so, … she calls him, and he calls me back and says, “Dude, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know that girl. She found my phone number on the ground, apparently

In fact, this is the current exploration of a new book project with Ruggill.

“I always try to play whatever’s new,” Ruggill said, “but I also try to play a lot of mobile games.”

The interest in mobile games is due to the development time, which is noticeably shorter than console games, Ruggill said.

He added that when playing a recently released game, the game concept was conceived several years prior, whereas mobile games may have been imagined a few weeks to a few months before.

“There’s a huge difference in what people are interested in, what sound [or] sights are hot to them,” Ruggill said on the appeal of different games.

McAllister said it’s interesting to see what was groundbreaking in one generation versus the next.

“Certain things don’t change, such as heavy reliance on audiovisual input as opposed to tactile input,” Ruggill said.

An example of this is in the Sega Dreamcast era when “The House of the Dead 2” was rereleased by the same company to help people learn to type or familiarize themselves with typing in “The Typing of the Dead.” Instead of shooting zombies with a pistol, you have to type out the words on their chest before they get to you in order to survive. As odd as this may seem, it goes to show how diverse the fun and functions of video games can be.

Ruggill said that traditionally, video games are something most people think their kids do. While that’s still true, the archive proves that video game culture is loved by children and adults alike.

No way would I ever do that.” She called the cops, the cops showed up and tried to make me give the money back to her. … They threw her out.

What is your favorite drink to make?

So many of them. My favorite one to make by far, I don’t know, it’s hard to say.

There’s too many good ones out there. It kind of depends on the person, too, you know? What they like, to make them happy with it. But I always recommend a white Russian. Those are always fun to make and everyone seems to enjoy them. We do a vanilla bean-infused vodka for them. …

People are always coming back for them.

What is your favorite drink?

I’m pretty simple. I just like a vodka tonic or a nice cold Newcastle.

Tucson’s own Gem and Jam Festival returns this weekend with artists, DJs and festival goers new and old

N

ow in its ninth year, the native Gem and Jam Festival returns to Tucson Friday through Sunday. The festival proves a unique opportunity for Tucsonans, as it leads into the Gem and Mineral Show with live music, workshops and special events. The threeday festival will feature a wide selection of performers ranging from aerial acrobatics to live painting shows.

Finding its start in 2003, the Gem and Jam Festival came from humble beginnings.

Initially, the event served as an after-party gathering for Gem and Mineral Show attendees, but as the years progressed, the festival grew, only taking a brief hiatus in 2011 and 2012 due

to the recession.

“We started off as a pretty small festival just outside of town our first year, and slowly, we made our way into town,” said Toby White, founder and executive director of Gem and Jam. “We’ve gone from a few artists to over 50 artists and vendors since the festival’s inception.” White said. “The event has definitely taken off.”

Expecting its largest crowd of festivalgoers to date, Gem and Jam will be hosting 65 vendors onsite and over 45 live bands, DJs and producers.

“We have a wide variety of different artists that are playing this year,” White said. “There are some local acts and some international acts. We have everything from down-tempo to mid-tempo beats to live bands. We also have a gallery

displaying a variety of different artists and about 50 different performing artists.”

In an effort to attract a younger crowd and establish the festival’s reputation, Gem and Jam worked to re-amp its marketing strategy from years past. With over 2,000 tickets sold this year and another 1,000 projected to sell by the end of the festival, the lineup has taken on a new form.

“I think in the past, we didn’t market correctly,” White said. “We really wanted to get it out there and let everyone at the university know that what’s going on.

With the show we’re providing, the college community should be our biggest crowd.”

Seeking a more cohesive atmosphere, White and company worked to reset the vibe to attract a larger demographic of festival attendees.

“We wanted a more intimate vibe,” White said. “Last year was [a] little more all over the board.

This year, we’ve

worked to kind of tone it down. All the acts flow together. We’re looking forward to having something everybody can jive with.”

Attracting new and old acts alike, the festival boasts an expansive array of local and international talent. Among the many musicians performing at this year’s festival are Portland-based producers Emancipator.

“The festival scene is pretty magical,” said Doug Appling, Emancipator’s founder.

“I don’t think there’s anything quite like it.

I’m really excited to be a part of this event and get back into the swing of things. This is going to be the first festival of the year for me, and I want to kick it off proper.”

After dropping his first album in 2002, Appling toured internationally in the years following his first release, though Appling says he’s excited to bring his sound to Tucson.

“I’ve heard a lot of good things about [Gem and Jam],” Appling said. “I’m excited. Hopefully, you will be inspired to feel something when you hear my music.

We try to just create a positive, uplifting vibe; the music is sweet and not at all heavy. Hopefully, [the audience] will find it interesting.”

For those new to the Gem and Jam scene, expect a show unlike any you’ve

experienced before, White said. “[You’re] going to experience eye candy everywhere [you] go,” White said. “There are lots of really good people to meet, art to see and music to experience.”

Festivities are set to commence Friday at 10 a.m. for the Gem and Mineral Show and 4 p.m. for the Gem and Jam Festival, both of which will run throughout the weekend. The event main stage is set up at Slaughterhouse on Grant Road, though additional events ranging from yoga to silent discos will be taking place at Solar Culture Gallery and Galactic Center until 5 a.m. every day.

“There are all sorts of events that focus on really moving your body and others that really focus on working your brain,” White said. “It’s got almost a circus feel to it, but with very upscale gems and minerals.

We’re hoping to attract a very diverse crowd with all the things we’ll be offering.

It’s going to be good this year.”

It’s personal for Wildcats and Devils

BY JAMES KELLEY The Daily Wildcat

Arizona men’s basketball travels to rival ASU on Saturday looking to extend its win streak and avenge its rare loss to the Sun Devils last season.

The No. 6 Wildcats (20-2, 8-1 Pac-12 Conference) look to sweep the season series against ASU (11-11, 3-6) on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. on Fox. Arizona beat the Sun Devils 73-49 last month but lost 69-66 in double overtime in Tempe on Feb. 14, 2014.

“Coach [Sean] Miller always is passionate about playing Arizona State, and these two games are the ones that he wants to win more than any of them,” guard Gabe York said.

Arizona owns the all-time series against its instate rivals 146-81, is 60-31 against ASU in Tempe and has won four of its last five against the Sun Devils. However, the Sun Devils are 8-10 against the Wildcats under coach Herb Sendek and Miller is 9-4 against ASU. “It’s being focused, but also having it in the back of our mind that obviously we know that we’re playing Arizona State and we know how great of a rivalry this game is, especially when we go up and play over there,” York said.

The game, Miller’s 200th at the UA, could be a milestone win for him, his 150th victory as Arizona coach. Miller is 149-50 in six seasons as UA’s skipper.

ASU started Pac-12 play 0-4 but has since gone 3-2.

“We know that any road game is difficult, especially at ASU, especially a Pac-12 conference game on the road, so we know we’re in for a heck of a battle and we got to be ready,” Miller said.

The Sun Devils are first in the conference in 3-pointers made with 7.64 per game and fourth in the conference in 3-point shooting percentage, with .371. Arizona is 11th in the conference in 3-pointers made, 4.71 a game, and fifth in 3-point field goal percentage, .361.

“When they shoot the ball well, they’re a really good basketball team,” York said.

Miller said the Sun Devils are a better team now that freshman Tra Holder has emerged as their point guard.

“I think they shot about 23 3s a game in conference play, so if they get those types of looks, I think they can beat anybody on a given night, because that shot is so effective and such a separator,” Miller said.

The Wildcats could be short handed as Miller said backup point guard Parker Jackson-Cartwright hasn’t practiced since suffering a concussion in the Oregon game.

Miller said he didn’t know if JacksonCartwright would practice on Thursday afternoon but didn’t think he would and didn’t know his status for ASU. Miller said York and guard Elliott Pitts will

play more minutes if Jackson-Cartwright is out, but forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will be the third-string point guard in case the Wildcats get into foul trouble or suffer more injuries.

York said he has been playing point guard with the back ups or third team all year in case, so him playing point guard isn’t that weird, but admitted it was unusual to see Hollis-Jefferson

at the one.

“It was a little weird, but at the end of the day, coach really knows what he’s doing, and both me and T.J. thought it was a good idea, so he was good out there,” York said.

Softball opens season with Cowboys

BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

For the first time since May 18, 2014 Hillenbrand Stadium will be rocking with Arizona softball.

The last time the Wildcats played on home soil, fans saw the team dominate in a 13-5 victory over LSU that sent the program to the Super Regionals of the NCAA tournament.

Since then, Arizona has seen several players leave for various reasons, but most of the core return for another go around. Headlining the returnees are first baseman Hallie Wilson, outfielder Katiyana Mauga, catcher Chelsea Goodacre and shortstop Kellie Fox. The quartet combined for 74 of Arizona’s 109 home runs last season and comprised the middle of the batting order.

Wilson, Goodacre and Fox enter their final season at Arizona as the

unquestioned leaders of the team and, along with Mauga, were all named to the USA Softball Player of the Year watch list.

Arizona went 31-3 last season at home and didn’t lose a home game until Oregon took down the ’Cats 7-3 on May 8. Arizona coach Mike Candrea enters his 30th season at the helm and has the Wildcats ranked 14th in the nation to start the season.

As the Wildcats take the field on Friday against Oklahoma State for the season-opening, three-game series, the quartet will be expected to lead a team that could struggle on the mound.

Gone are pitching mainstays Estela Piñon, Kenzie Fowler and Shelby Babcock. The only returnees with pitching experience at Arizona are Nancy Bowling, who struggled last season in nine starts, and Michelle Floyd, who registered just nine total appearances during her

true freshman season.

Bowling is expected to anchor the UA pitching staff this season and should show considerable action over the weekend series.

Oklahoma State is no stranger to losing pitchers either; the Cowboys lost workhorse Simone Freeman to graduation. Freeman led the team in wins, appearances, complete games, shutouts, innings pitched, strikeouts and batting average against.

Losing Freeman is huge and should make Oklahoma State’s three games against Arizona that much tougher.

One consolation is the return of speedy outfielder Shelby Davis. The senior from Kansas tallied a teamhigh of 41 steals in 46 attempts from the leadoff spot. Davis gave pitchers fits last season with her speed and .435 on-base percentage.

From Arizona’s side of the diamond, there should be more

speed in this year’s projected lineup as it now features speedster Eva Watson in the outfield. Watson replaces the combination of Alex Lavine and Courtney Rodriguez in center field.

The Wildcats stole just 24 bases last season as a team but hit more than enough home runs to stay afloat throughout the season. Candrea often emphasized smart base running last season but rarely saw the fruits of his lessons.

As the first pitch of the 2015 season is released around 5 p.m. on Friday, Hillenbrand Stadium will be ready as the Wildcats start their journey toward bringing home the program’s ninth national championship.

UA hosts Meet the Team event

BY NICOLE COUSINS The Daily Wildcat

It’s been a while since Arizona baseball fans filled the stands at Hi Corbett Field to cheer on the Wildcats: 256 days to be exact. After a short season last year, supporters can return to the ballpark this Saturday, for Arizona’s annual Meet The Team day.

The Wildcats struggled through a 22-33 season in 2014, missing the regional cutoff for just the third time in head coach Andy Lopez’s career at UA, and produced the school’s worst baseball record since the Jerry Kindall era in 1995.

This year, a host of new recruits and returning preseason All-Americans have members of the team saying they are back on the right track.

The open scrimmage will be a time for fans to witness one of the last battles for a starting position for the season opener against Eastern Michigan next Friday.

“We’re just going to try to get out and get back to the Arizona way,” said All-American junior infielder Kevin Newman. “We’re building up towards our season and working as hard as we can day to day.”

Newman and fellow preseason award winners infielders Scott Kingery and Bobby Dalbec are the only defensive players with definite starting positions next week. Kingery

will start at second base, Newman at shortstop and Dalbec at third.

The battle for first base is still a toss-up between returner Michael Hoard, redshirt freshman Casey Bowman and freshman JJ Matijevic.

“I think it’s been good this fall,” Hoard, a Tucson native, said about the competition. “Working with [Matijevic] and Bowman at first base, I think we have had some really good competition.”

Surprise returner Riley Moore is dueling with freshman Handsome Monica, who Lopez said has made a big run this past week for the starting catching position after not having been drafted last summer.

The outfield is another gray area for the Wildcats. While returners Tyler Krause and Zach Gibbons have been putting in considerable practice time at their respective positions in right and left field, junior college transfers Ryan Aguilar and Justin Behnke are also in the running for a starting spot.

With so much yet to be determined, Lopez said he is happy with where his team is at and he’s ready to show Tucson what this baseball program is bringing to the diamond this season.

“I like this and I like Saturday,” Lopez said. “I like the fact that the fans can come down and meet a Kevin Newman or a Riley Moore, people that are going to be really successful in baseball and in life.”

UA Women’s golf opens in California

BY JUSTIN SPEARS The Daily Wildcat

Arizona women’s golf will open the 2015 spring season at the Northrup Grumman Regional Challenge on Sunday in Palos Verdes, Calif. The three-day tournament will be the first look at the Wildcats since November. The tee-time is set for 8 a.m. at the Palos Verdes Golf Club from Sunday through Tuesday.

The last time the Wildcats teed off was in Kona, Hawaii, after the Wildcats finished in fourth place by posting a final score of 13-over-par 889 in the Nanea

Pac-12 Conference Preview. This allowed the Wildcats to compete with every Pac-12 rival other than Utah.

The season was eventually followed by receiving national letters of intent from highly touted freshmen Danielle Lee and Gigi Stoll in November for 2015-2016.

The UA has been consistent all season long. Arizona finished in the top 10 in every tournament of 2014, which was highlighted by a second-place finish in the Annika Intercollegiate in Orlando, Fla., back in September.

The Wildcats will look to contend for a Pac-12 championship as head coach Laura

fans can get posters and memorabilia signed by the players and coaches.

Single-game tickets and ticket packages will also be available for purchase.

“If it were me, I would have taken advantage of this,” Lopez said. “I would have wanted to meet these guys, see who they are and what it’s

Ianello’s team returns marquee veterans like second-team All-American Lindsey Weaver.

Weaver is coming off an impressive season after transferring from Notre Dame after one season for the Fighting Irish. Weaver started off her second year of eligibility with Arizona finishing at 72 (E) for all three rounds in the tournament, which tied for 14th place.

Last season, Weaver shot a 3-over-par 216 at the Northrop Grumman Regional Challenge, which earned her a tie for eighth place. Weaver is looking to finally get her first individual win since the Windy City Classic in 2013, when she shot a 5-underpar 208.

The last time Weaver competed in a tournament was the Pac-12 Preview when she helped lead the Wildcats to a top-10 finish. Weaver’s finish was also the first finish under par.

As a veteran, Ianello can rely on Weaver heavily going forward and count on her to mentor younger players and players from other countries.

all about.”

senior Manon Gidali. Despite stumbling in her junior season by only finishing in the top 10 once, she proved to be a dark horse in the Pac-12 individually. Gidali tied for eleventh place in the Landfall Tradition event in Wilmington, N.C., in October.

Gidali tallied her best score as a junior when she shot to par with a 2-over-par 282 to tie for seventh place at the NCAA Championships.

Last season, the Wildcats finished in sixth place and shot a 30-over-par 882 at the Northrup Grumman Regional Challenge.

There wasn’t a single Wildcat that scored under par, but with players that are leaders for this team, the Wildcats hope to bounce back and catch a Pac-12 crown in the spring portion of the 2015 season, as well as sprint to the NCAA Championships and do something that hasn’t been done in 15 years: win a championship.

Women’s basketball hosts Bay Area schools

BY EZRA AMACHER The Daily Wildcat

After a disappointing road trip to the mountain schools, Arizona women’s basketball will try to turn things around this weekend as it plays host to Cal and Stanford.

The Wildcats currently sit at the bottom of the Pac-12 conference with a 1-9 record in league play and 8-13 overall record. Two of those losses have come against the Bears and the Cardinal, which each defeated the UA by double digits last month.

Now the two Bay Area schools travel to McKale Center where they will take on an Arizona team coming off a pair of rough losses to Utah and Colorado last weekend.

“We had a total lapse,” women’s head coach Niya Butts said. “We didn’t do what we needed to do on the boards at all, and we weren’t physical on the box-outs. We allowed too many second-chance opportunities, and ultimately, I think that was the difference [in both losses].”

Those issues came against two of the bottom feeders of the conference. Cal and Stanford meanwhile are among the Pac-12’s best, meaning the Wildcats will have to play with even more diligence if they are going to compete.

In practice this week, Arizona emphasized being more aggressive crashing the boards and playing tighter perimeter defense.

“I feel like we’ve had a solid couple days of practice,” Arizona guard Candice Warthen said.

“I think we’ll bounce back better defensively and with rebounding.”

On Friday, the Wildcats open up the home stand by taking on Cal in a 7 p.m. start.

The Bears sit fourth in the conference with an 8-2 league record and enter the meeting on a five-game winning streak.

Cal is one of the better shooting teams in the conference with a .456 clip from the field. Bears guard Brittany Boyd spearheads the offense with 7.9 assists per game, tied for the secondmost nationally.

Arizona held its own for much of the first meeting in Berkeley, Calif., but Cal pulled away down the stretch. Despite being at a major height disadvantage, the Wildcats were physical and attacked the basket — ­ drawing 23 fouls in the 68-56 defeat.

While the outcome didn’t go the UA’s way, Butts believes there is a lot the team can draw on in preparation and watching film.

“It always helps when you’re seeing an opponent for the second time,” Butts said.

“You know what to expect, you can watch your previous game, kind of learn and grow from that.”

Sunday afternoon, an even bigger test awaits the Wildcats as they take on No. 12 ranked Stanford. The UA designated the matchup as a “Pink Game” in awareness of cancer, and pom

In the early meeting in Palo Alto, Calif., Stanford controlled virtually every aspect of the game in a 30-point win.

For Arizona to be competitive in either game, the Wildcats must lock down shooters as well as capitalize on their own good looks.

“We just have to be ready to play,” Butts said. “The good news is we’re at home in front of our fans.”
