YOUR SUMMER GUIDE TO TUCSON MUSIC, MOVIES AND ART
Miranda Butler Arts Editor 621-3106 arts@wildcat.arizona.edu
Stereotypical, but true:
The roommates you may encounter ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT We all know that stereotypes are exaggerations, and that no one fits any certain mold perfectly. But when you meet your roommate this year, you may learn that he or she has some very stereotypical (and frightening) qualities. Never fear. If you keep a level head, there’s a reasonable way to go about living with just about anyone.
The slob
The slob never cleans (which causes her possessions to smell like feet) and she hasn’t done laundry for three months now. She hoards old pizza boxes and stacks half-empty soda cans into towers on her desk. Expiration dates mean nothing to her, and she doesn’t “believe” in washing dishes. What to do: Establish boundaries for the room, so that at the very least, your half will be clean. Since she’s so insanely messy, you probably won’t be able to change her ways completely. But if something is a health hazard, confront her calmly to reach a compromise. What not to do: Do not clean up the slob’s mess for her. This will enable her to become even messier, and she may also grow dependent on you — which means she’ll never learn to clean for herself.
The sociopath
A literal sociopath kills kittens, but a sociopathic roommate kills your soul. She can’t stand to see other people happy, so she has some psychological need to tear you down. She’ll tell you that you’re unattractive, that your major is stupid and that no one in the world cares about you. What to do: Find quiet, relaxing places to hang out (other than just your dorm room). When she’s bothering you, it’s good to know that you have someplace else to go. Also, make other friends. Try to hang out with people who build you up whenever possible. What not to do: Don’t believe the lies that she tells you, and never, ever follow advice that she gives you. She enjoys seeing you suffer, so to thwart her plans, you must continue to be happy.
The BFF
Whether you knew each other before college or not, this roommate acts like your Siamese twin. She wants to do everything that you do, go everywhere with you and borrow everything that you
have. She doesn’t respect your boundaries, and can’t take a subtle hint. What to do: Be nice to her, but also be real with her. If you don’t want her to come to a party with you, it’s OK to gently inform her that only a limited number of people were invited. Remember that you’re allowed to say no. What not to do: Don’t get angry with her or insult her. She probably clings to you because she’s insecure, so it’s important to encourage her to establish her own identity as a person.
The invisible roommate
This guy lives in your dorm, but he’s never actually there. Maybe he’s always at his girlfriend’s place. Maybe his family lives in town. Maybe he’s just always out partying. Whatever his reasoning is, he may as well be invisible. What to do: Enjoy the extra alone time — and realize that this is a good thing. In fact, an invisible roommate may make adjusting to dorm life easier for you. Just remember to go out and make other friends, too. Spending time alone doesn’t mean you have to be a loner. What not to do: Never act like your roommate doesn’t actually live with you. Even if he’s not around, it’s not all right to borrow his things without asking, put your stuff in his desk drawers or invite other people to sleep in his bed.
The stoner
Her wide, vacant expressions, hourslong “chill out” sessions, and interesting taste in music say it all: She’s a stoner. She’s constantly munching on your snacks and engaging you in overly personal conversations. Not to mention that undeniable stench that no amount of body spray can mask. What to do: Ask her not to keep her stash
in your room. That’s a lot to ask for a stoner, but remember that if she gets caught with illegal drugs, both of you could suffer the consequences — you’ll be referred to the Dean of Students Office and you risk losing your dorm room. Also, if her eating your food is a problem, outsmart her by purposefully buying snacks that you know she doesn’t like. What not to do: Don’t join her in doing drugs. Drugs are bad.
The early bird
Her alarm clock wakes you up every morning at 6 a.m. As if that isn’t bad enough, she makes all kinds of additional noise as she makes breakfast and shuffles through her drawers to put together a matchymatchy jogging outfit. If you stir from your glorious sleep, she says “good morning,” and smiles obnoxiously, oblivious to the fact that you’re seriously annoyed. What to do: Talk it out. You can ask her to keep it quiet when she first wakes up, but keep your requests reasonable. Try designating quiet hours that reach a compromise between her schedule and yours. What not to do: Don’t ruin each other’s lives. You feel like she wakes you up too early, but she probably feels like you keep her up too late. Neither one of you is right or wrong, so don’t be disrespectful.
The partier
He’s a pretty cool roommate when he’s not throwing up in your sink, stumbling into the room at 4 a.m., drunk-dialing you or putting a fork in the microwave. He’s always going out at night to party, which is fine — it’s when he comes home that’s the problem. What to do: Encourage him to be smarter about his partying decisions. Remind him that it’s important to have a designated driver, drink plenty of water, and make sure people don’t pass out lying face-up. What not to do: Don’t clean up his mess. If he throws up in the bathroom, pees on the floor, or pisses a bunch of people off when he’s drunk, it’s not your responsibility to cover up his mistakes.
to bring someone home. Work out a schedule for the room, so that you can sleep in peace some nights, but also offer to occasionally sleep elsewhere if he gives you fair warning. What not to do: Don’t judge him or force your morals or ideas on him. His behavior may make you uncomfortable, but if this is what he wants to do, you have no right to tell him not to.
The couple
You didn’t just get one roommate. You got two. His girlfriend practically lives with you, which he doesn’t realize is totally awkward. And what’s worse, they’re always together, being all adorably couple-like — except for when they’re fighting and you’re trapped in the middle. What to do: Stay neutral. Be courteous to both your roommate and his girlfriend, but take care that you never take sides in their arguments. Also, if you don’t want his girlfriend’s Hannah Montana poster hanging in your room, it’s OK to say so nicely. Remember, this is your dorm. What not to do: Don’t tell your roommate that you don’t like his girlfriend, or that she has to leave. They’re so close that he’ll see any hostility toward her as an attack on him too.
The promiscuous roommate
Whether you’re home or not, this roommate has no shame when it comes to sex. He’ll bring home various girls at any hour and sleep with them even while you’re in the bunk above him. It’s great that he’s so uninhibited, but wow, this can get awkward. What to do: Set up a system (code words or warning texts) so that he can warn you when he wants

Shopping subculture abounds on Fourth Avenue By Kelly Kleber ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT Need a birthday present for a friend, new clothes for yourself or some unique decorations for your dorm? Fourth Avenue is a unique shopping district located just minutes away from campus. Here, you can find art, books, clothing, décor, music … and the list goes on. So skip the mall in favor of fresh air, great deals and an amazing variety of one-of-a-kind specialty shops.
Hippie Gypsy
351 N. Fourth Ave. This trendy and fragrant shop is covered
in colorful murals featuring icons such as Jim Morrison and the Beatles. Hippie Gypsy has a great selection of clothing, hemp bags, incense, pipes and wall tapestries. The store also sells posters with explosions of tie-dye, psychedelic patterns and other famous icons such as Bob Marley.
Goodwill
300 N. Fourth Ave. If you’re looking to furnish your apartment at a ridiculously reasonable price, Goodwill is the place to go. Goodwill sells used furniture, kitchenware and wall hangings — and just about everything in between. Of course, you may have to do some digging to find what

Coffee, coffee, coffee
Conveniently close cafes to curb those caffeine cravings Epic Cafe
By Kellie Mejdrich ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT As a student, you know (or soon will) that coffee is serious business — for staying awake, being social and getting that last paper done. So if you’re looking for a cup of quality caffeine near campus, you’re in luck. Tucson offers a plethora of excellent beaneries for you to dip your cup into.
Caffe Luce
943 E. University Blvd. Nestled right near campus, Caffe Luce doesn’t just brew coffee on the spot, it roasts coffee beans in-house, making for a fresh cup of joe. Specialty orders, beyond the local espresso, include the Azteca Mocha: a cinnamon-y, chocolatey drink that is sure to transport you into a fragrant Mesoamerican dreamland.
745 N. Fourth Ave. With notoriously strong espresso and a range of specialty drinks, Epic Cafe is a community staple. In addition to its standard coffee fare, Epic offers generous helpings of vegan, fruity and chocolatey baked goods. The cafe’s vegan seed cookie is legendary.
Ragin’ Sage 2458 N. Campbell Ave. Ragin’ Sage is a must for any caffeine addict. The artsy shop has a mellow, inviting atmosphere, and is known for its in-house roasting. Ragin’ Sage is also one of the only roasters in town where you can also order coffee drinks, and the shop boasts a lovely baked goods selection with excellent quiches and tarts.
Cartel Coffee Lab 2502 N. Campbell Ave. Cartel Coffee Lab is a Tempe favorite that’s finally made its way down south. The store places an emphasis on crafting individual espresso drinks — cappuccinos, lattes and au laits come with beautiful foam patterns in each cup. Another interesting possibility is brewing a single order of coffee, using imported beans from places such as Guatemala.
Time Market 444 E. University Blvd, Time Market serves up your typical espresso drinks but has a wide range of imported beans on drip all day, from Ethiopia to Brazil and beyond. Plus, since it’s also a grocery store, you have the option to buy a pound of coffee you like and brew at home, too.

Best places on campus to get away from it all By Maitri Mehta ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT The UA is a large campus, but with so many students roaming the premises when school’s in session, it can be tough to find a quiet place to clear your head. Here are a few spots on campus that always have a bit of breathing room:
The Poetry Center
Garden at the Forbes building
Janice Biancavilla/Arizona Summer Wildcat
Located north of Speedway Boulevard on Helen Street, the Poetry Center is an out-of-theway oasis. It’s quiet, full of light, and stands as a stoic testament to the art of poetry. But it’s not just for English and creative writing students to enjoy — the Poetry Center’s library and garden are open to all students who hope to find some peace of mind. With a small, serene garden of bamboo and river rocks and a large inviting library space, the Poetry Center is the perfect place to sit in solitude.
that gives way to another small but lovely garden. This peaceful oasis is the perfect place to drink coffee between classes or finish up some last-minute homework.
The fourth floor of the Student Union Memorial Center
If it’s your first time at the UA, the Student Union Memorial Center can be daunting. Modeled after the USS Arizona, it often feels more overwhelming than a ship itself. The stairs don’t lead where you think they would, there is a glut of nondescript study rooms and Cactus Grill seems like a maze. But on the fourth floor of the Union, there are dozens of tables and a great view of the UA Mall. Climb that last staircase, and you might find your own quiet place atop this large building.
The Meinel Optical Sciences building
The Meinel Optical Sciences building is the beautiful, futuristic facade next to the UA Main Library. It’s one of the greenest buildings on campus and has a small, sunken courtyard in the front that not many students are aware of. Plus, inside the spacious glass lobby, the College of Optical Sciences displays its interesting collection of antique telescopes, lenses, cameras and microscopes. It’s a great place to explore, or you can sit on the steps in the shade and get some serious reading done.
Forbes building
The Forbes building stands just south of Old Main. Its exterior is typical of UA historic fare — dark brick and stately columns. In the back of the Forbes building, however, there is a gorgeous ivy-covered wall and rose garden The Poetry Center

Talkin’ truth about the UA dorms By Jason Krell ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT No matter what school you go to, its dorms are sure to have certain reputations. The UA is no exception, and with more than 20 dorms on our campus, there are plenty of reputations to go along with them. Let’s take a look at some of the most notorious to find out what’s just talk, and what’s actually true.
Arizona-Sonora (nicknames: AzSo, AzHo)
The talk: AzSo was practically made to be a party dorm. With extra-large rooms to accommodate that third roommate — or if you’re on the Sonora side, you get the same size for two — it screams “dorm party.” There’s also a good chance you’ll find a cop car, ambulance or both outside on any given night. On the weekends, there are so many residents getting wild, the chances of your rager getting busted are slim. Party on, dudes. The truth: AzSo really does seem to be made for parties, and it does host a large number of them. You’re also pretty likely to find an emergency response vehicle outside on the weekends. But even though you may think you’re unlikely to get caught partying here, remember: The residents are regular students, just like anywhere else. Getting caught by your resident assistant or the police is still a possibility.
The only place with more debauchery is Greek Row, and here, there is no bouncer at the door asking, “Are you on the list?” Be careful, though. Many students gossip about contracting STDs here. The truth: It’s a crazy and loud place, to be sure, and the people in it seem to go out more than any other dorm. There are lines of taxis outside every night, waiting to take residents to parties. But the truth is that you’ll find people drinking and having sex in every dorm, not just Coronado.
Kaibab-Huachuca (nicknames: KaHu, Kaibab, Kaibab-a-crap-crap)
The talk: Kaibab always seems to get the short end of the stick. It’s not on Highland, it’s not new and it’s not one of the south-side
“party” dorms. Many students are dismayed when they see they’ve been assigned to Kaibab, because they believe that this dorm is old, dirty and boring. The truth: It isn’t the most luxurious dorm on campus, nor is it the most popular, but Kaibab is a perfectly fun place to live if you’re willing to go looking for it. The dorm has a great staff of RAs who run programs that can actually be fun. Also, there’s a pretty cool lounge downstairs where many students hang out.
Highland dorms: Pueblo de La Cienega (nickname: Cienega), Posada San Pedro (nickname: PSP), Villa del Puente (nickname: VDP)
The talk: Located all in a row on the west side of Highland Avenue, these are some
Hopi Lodge, Graham-Greenlee (nickname: HoGG) and Colonia de La Paz (nickname: La Paz)
Coronado (nicknames: Nado, Scoreanado, Whoreanado)
The talk: While it’s closed this year to have its plumbing and mechanical systems repaired, there is no dorm with a dirtier reputation. If you’re looking for some fun (namely sex, drugs and … do we rock and roll anymore?) this is the dorm for you.
of the newest and nicest dorms. They’re practical clones of each other too, and if you’re not familiar with them they’re easy to mix up. These three dorms are generally viewed as the boring ones, where you’re lucky to meet anyone else in your hall, since most of the residents are quiet and introverted. The most fun you’ll have here is by watching the drunken crowds stumbling into Highland Market on weekends. The truth: These dorms are definitely quieter than the rest, but that doesn’t mean you’ll never meet your hallmates or have fun. Don’t expect the dorm parties you might find on the south side, but kickbacks are common. Plus, the fact that you’re right by Highland Market makes those late-night munchies a thing of the past. The location is also conveniently near the Student Recreation Center.
Coronado Residence Hall
Mike Christy/Arizona Daily Wildcat
The talk: These dorms are viewed as the less glamorous counterparts to Cienega, PSP, and VDP — mostly because of age. They trade that new dorm smell for a bit of rustic charm and a colorful past. Students often compare these rooms to the more appealing dorms across the street, and it’s commonly believed that you should consider yourself lucky if you don’t get lost in the labyrinth-like hallways of La Paz. The truth: La Paz may be a confusing dorm to navigate, but it’s also one of the most popular choices for students because of its convenient location on Highland Avenue. HoGG isn’t anything to turn your head at, but there’s nothing wrong with it either. Plus, the dorm’s traditional HoGG-o-ween celebration is a popular annual event.

Where to walk the rock
A guide to local concert venues and upcoming shows By Kellie Mejdrich ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT
Club Congress
311 E. Congress St. Although many of Club Congress’ shows are for ages 21 and up, the venue (which is part of the historic Hotel Congress) will occasionally open its doors to an all-ages audience. Shows usually take place in the Tap Room, a smaller space that allows for an intimate concert experience. The venue hosts well-known bands, as well as up-andcoming musicians. Indie pop band Cults is visiting on July 30 at 6:30 p.m. for only $10 — and the show will be all ages. With a funky, vampy sound that’s ultra-fresh, this mysterious duo wowed critics with their hot single “Go Outside” last year. And on Nov. 8, well-known indie rockers Ra Ra Riot will visit with Delicate Steve and Yellow Ostrich, at 8 p.m. for $15, $14 if you pay in advance. This show will be ages 18 and up.
Solar Culture
31 E. Toole Ave. If you need a break from all the indie rock rolling through Tucson, Solar Culture is the perfect place for you. Solar Culture is a non-profit venue created for the sole purpose of bringing together music and artists of various cultures. In addition to being a music venue, it’s also an art gallery filled with work of all styles, media and concepts. While the venue doesn’t sell food or drinks, you are welcome to bring your own refreshments. Shows are always all ages. Catch a fascinating hybrid of samba, contemporary, pop and electronica music by Brazillian singer Luísa Maita on Sept. 15 at 8 p.m. Tickets are only $10.

Tucson boasts clubs, venues for all creative types By Kellie Mejdrich ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT When you start college, your low budget and the limited space in your dorm room can make it difficult to stay creative. But artistic hobbies can be a great way to relieve the stress of the daily grind at the UA. With a number of local clubs and facilities near campus, it’s easy to tap into all kinds of resources, even if you’re not a studio art major.
Ceramics Club
This club is open to the public for once-a-week pottery during the semester. All you need to do is pay a small membership fee and have an interest in the art of ceramics. Email Aurore Chabot at aurorec@email.arizona.edu for more information.
Red Room at the Grill
100 E. Congress St. Though shows are often scheduled on short notice, the Red Room is a hotspot for local artists. Shows here are usually free and always all-ages. Since the Grill is also a restaurant, the Red Room is one of the only venues where you can get a burger, a soda and a specialty mixed drink in the same place while listening to homegrown jams. You can catch Havarti Orchestra, Mean Beans, and Mr. Free and the Satellite Freakout on Aug. 12. It’s sure to be a great way to finish one of your last weeks of freedom before the semester starts.
The Drawing Studio
The Drawing Studio at 33 S. Sixth Ave. provides a range of artistic options, including drop-in open figure studio hours for only $10 per three-hour session. Classes are also available, and the studio even offers opportunities to draw live figure models. Visit www.thedrawingstudio.org for more information or call 620-0947 for details.
Tucson Clay Co-op
Tucson Clay Co-op is a studio located at 3326 N. Dodge Blvd. The co-op provides a range of membership opportunities as well as classes in wheel and hand-building ceramics techniques. Call 792-6263 for more information.
Rialto Theatre
318 E. Congress St. The Rialto Theatre has been a symbol of Tucson’s entertainment scene since it first opened its doors in 1920. The theater is a snazzy venue that’s been known to host some of the biggest names in music today. For example, this summer, the Rialto sold out for breakout artist Christina Perri. Acquaint yourself with the Rialto on Sept. 1 as you check out the lush, rich compositions of Explosions in the Sky. The show starts at the Rialto Theatre at 8 p.m. for $22, and these well-seasoned Texan instrumentalists form heavily layered, dramatic music that is truly trance-inducing.
University of Arizona Ballroom Dance Club
For a different kind of artistic expression, join the Ballroom Dance Club and dance your way to creativity. During the school year, weekly lessons cost only $45 for an entire semester, or $80 for the year. Visit clubs.arizona.edu/~bdc for more information. The Rialto Theatre

Free (and cheap) food and fun on campus By Jason Krell ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT College is expensive, but you know that. Tuition, room and board can get out of control, but if you look in the right places, you can find some great deals. There are plenty of bargains out there for both food and entertainment.
Meals, deals and steals
During the first few weeks of school, there will be random people on campus handing little coupon books and maps out to anyone with an empty hand. Sometimes these books are just set up on tables in big piles, ripe for the picking. Go ahead and take a few. In fact, go ahead and take as many as you can carry. They’re good for a whole semester and they’re free. Look through the coupons wisely, and you’re sure to find many deals you can use. Aside from that, weekly specials are your friends. Look for cheap combo meal prices at participating campus restaurants on Wednesdays and Fridays — priced at just $3 and $5 respectively. The deals aren’t available everywhere, but keep an eye out for the little signs that say they’re participating. You can also check online at www.union.arizona.edu/cheapeats. Cheap food is good, but free food is better (although it’s much harder to find). The best place to start is the UA Mall. On certain days, which, for the most part will be random, there will be rows and rows of tables set up on the Mall. Sometimes the free food will come with a catch, such as signing a petition or agreeing to attend a club meeting. But hey, that’s a small price to pay when you get something else for free. Other places for gratis grubbing are those very club meetings themselves. If
you like the food they give out at on the Mall, you’ll like the food at the meeting even better. Of course, it’s not the nicest thing in the world to join a club just for the food. But if you’re a good enough actor or lack a conscience, have at it.
No-payment entertainment
The Mall is one of the best places to have a good time for free. If you’re a fan of the outdoors, there is plenty of room to get your game on, and you can easily join your fellow students in all kinds of sports out there. Whether it’s football, Frisbee or soccer, there’s room for most everyone. You can even find the occasional game of bicycle polo. Looking for something more cultured? There’s plenty of that at the UA as well. You can always visit the UA Center for Creative Photography or the UA Museum of Art, both of which are free to students with a CatCard. Otherwise, Gallagher Theater hosts frequent movie showings, sometimes of classics, and sometimes of newer flicks. Ticket prices are usually less than $5, which is still cheaper than going to an actual theater. Plus, you can catch the improvisation group The Charles Darwin Experience there every Tuesday at 10 p.m. For the ladies, and gentleman too, there is one good shopping deal worth mentioning. Every Friday before home games the UofA Bookstore offers 25 percent off all UA apparel. So if you want to stock up on UA gear, it’s worth waiting to get a better price. And don’t forget your friends amid all these fantastic distractions. They can make some of the best free fun available. Just hanging out and meeting new people is part of the college experience, so be sure to make that priority number one.

Places to go at odd hours By Kelly Kleber ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT It’s 2 a.m. Your roommate is snoring obnoxiously and you have a paper due in six hours. The Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center is open, but you’re in the mood for some late-night grub while you do your homework. Where do you go? There are several places open 24/7 in Tucson. Here are some of the best places to go at odd hours:
A Shot In The Dark Cafe
121 E. Broadway Blvd. If you enjoy live music, art galleries and generous portions of organic food, then you’ll fit right in at this around-the-clock coffeehouse and restaurant. With its relaxing environment and friendly staff, A Shot in the Dark Cafe is the epitome of a downtown coffee shop. Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian or a meatloving maniac, there is something for everyone. Some of the most notable menu items include the “George Carlin,” a colossal sized black bean, spinach and green pepper burrito, and the Potatoes Maximus, a heaping portion of potatoes mixed with bacon, cheddar cheese, green chilies and red peppers.
Grill
100 E. Congress St. The Grill is one of Tucson’s best-known late-night hot spots, and this award-winning restaurant has been voted Best Diner in Tucson for 10 consecutive years now. Not only does the Grill boast the best tater tots in town, the diner also offers deep-fried ravioli, sirloin burgers and a big bowl of Cap’n Crunch. The shop’s low-key, norush atmosphere sets the mood for finishing your homework while enjoying your food and is sure to keep you coming back time and time again.
Coffee X-Change
Grill
Janice Biancavilla/Arizona Summer Wildcat
2443 N. Campbell Ave. Whether you need a quadruple shot of caffeine or just a regular cup of coffee, Coffee X-Change is your best bet. This coffee shop offers a great selection of fresh coffee as well as baked goods such as bagels, cookies and pastries. Coffee X-Change also makes breakfast foods and good-sized sandwiches at all hours of the day. It’s a great place for students to congregate, and you’ll find other people studying here at just about every hour.

Know your noms Favorite Tucson foods with strange names By Miranda Butler ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT
Highland burritos
What they are: Highland burritos probably don’t count as actual Mexican food, but they are some of the most delicious breakfast burritos around. A favorite among students looking for late-night snacks, Highland burritos are grilled up buffet style so that you can select what ingredients you’d like in addition to cheese and eggs. Where to get them: Highland Market on Highland Avenue. Although the market is open 24 hours, the cooks switch between serving burritos and sandwiches at various times of the day, so look at the posted signs in order to drop by at a time when burritos will actually be served. Also, to order a burrito, you must first fill out a slip (which you can find at the Highland Market checkout). Then bring that slip to the employees working the grill.
Eegee’s
What they are: Although Eegee’s itself is a fast-food restaurant, if you hear students referring to “getting some Eegee’s” or “eating an Eegee,” this is a usually a reference to Eegee’s frozen fruit drinks in particular. Regular flavors are lemon, piña colada and strawberry, and there is also a different specialty flavor every month. Where to get them: You can purchase Eegee’s at any of their locations, of course, but they are also sold
at numerous locations across campus. You can find Eegee’s at the ice cream counter at U-Mart, as well as to the side of the coffee counter at Highland Market.
Sonoran hot dogs
What they are: This specialty hot dog comes wrapped in bacon, includes nearly every condiment including ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise, and is also topped with pinto beans, vegetables and jalapeño sauce. Of course, some ingredients vary depending on where you buy your hot dog — and although all these toppings might sound overwhelming or gross, the savory taste will blow your mind. Where to get them: One of the most popular places to buy a Sonoran hot dog is at El Guero Canelo (the “G” is pronounced like a “W”), a Tucson restaurant located at 2480 N. Oracle Road. You can also buy a Sonoran hot dog at one of the many hot dog stands scattered throughout Tucson.
Chicken and waffles
What they are: If someone invites you to go get “chicken and waffles,” they’re actually suggesting a visit to a restaurant that’s famous for selling fried chicken and amazing waffles together in the same entrée. The portions are huge and reasonably priced, and the restaurant also has a bar and sells specialty Southern foods. Where to get them: The full name of the “chicken and waffles” restaurant is Mays Counter Chicken and Waffles, 2945 E. Speedway Blvd.

Where to get the reel deal in the Old Pueblo
By Maitri Mehta ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT Whether you prefer B-grade horror, vintage foreign films, or obscure documentaries that never seem to make it to the main screens, Tucson has what you’re looking for. Sure, there is your regular fare available, with several theaters throughout the city and an IMAX to boot (for a serious headache). But if you gravitate toward the quirkier side of the silver screen, Tucson gives generously.
3233 E. Speedway Blvd. Arguably Tucson’s most notorious meeting place for art house films, The Loft is a non-profit organization that proudly gloats its worship of films, filmmakers and filmmaking. The Loft supports local directors and producers and, since 2002, has screened international films from more than
100 filmmakers. The Loft showcases independent, foreign, alternative and classic films, and also hosts special events such as screenings of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” and other cult classics.
Casa Video
2905 E. Speedway Blvd. If you’d rather stay in, Casa Video is a goldmine for film buffs. Forget about Redbox and Netflix, because Casa Video is guaranteed to outdo any other selection. The store provides freshly popped popcorn while you browse — which could take quite a while, since Casa Video boasts a space of 8,000 square feet with more than 50,000 titles. Movies are arranged by genre, so you can find a shelf of every Oscar winner ever, in chronological order, as well as everything from foreign horror films to B-grade World War II epics. Anything goes. And the staff really knows its stuff, so don’t be afraid to ask for help.

Grand Cinemas
4811 E. Grant Road, 4690 N. Oracle Road Going to the movies can eat your paycheck. Tickets are $9 at the least, and if you want to see a movie in 3D, you might have to skip dinner, because those godforsaken 3D glasses can run you up another four bucks. If shelling out cash isn’t your style, Grand Cinemas is a nice relief from those ridiculous ticket prices. Grand Cinemas has two Tucson locations, and is one of the few discount theaters where you can easily catch any title you may have missed. So if you missed “Nanny McPhee Returns…” you’re in luck.
Fox Tucson Theatre
Janice Biancavilla/Arizona Summer Wildcat
17 W. Congress St. Fox Tucson Theatre takes you back to a time when big bands were the big thing, baby — it’s totally retro. The theater is a
historical space dating back to the 1930s in the heart of downtown Tucson, with a mission to restore the art of the theater to the glory it deserves. The theater mainly shows classic films, so a trip here is worth it to experience a Tucson of a more glamorous past.
Gallagher Theater
in the Student Union Memorial Center We have our very own screening venue here on campus. The Gallagher Theater at the Student Union Memorial Center was built in 1971, back when movies were only 75 cents for students. Today’s prices reflect the times, but traditions continue, like Midnight Movies and special screening events. Be on the lookout for fliers advertising free pre-screenings, too, since new releases sometimes get tested on a college audience here.
Do you spend your time curled up with a good book? Or even better, writing your own novels, short stories or poems? The English and Creative Writing Club is a small group of students that meets at the UA Poetry Center once per week. Activities include guest speakers and writing exercises. Email club president and former Wildcat arts editor Christy Delehanty at christyd@email.arizona.edu for more information.
Copoeira Club of the UA
Copoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial art that combines discipline and athleticism with rhythm, dance and music. This art is a great way to express yourself, get in shape and delve into the traditions of another culture. For more information, search for “Copoeira” on the ASUA clubs site at clubs.asua.arizona.edu.

A ‘A’ Mountain
Actually named Sentinel Peak, “A” Mountain became a symbol of UA pride in 1915 when the freshman class built the “A” on the side of the peak. Students began the yearly tradition of whitewashing the monument in 1916. Both Arizona and ASU have “A” Mountains in their respective cities and the challenge of painting the other school’s “A” before big games has become a yearly ritual.
‘Bear down’
“Bear down, Arizona, bear down, red and blue. Bear down, Arizona. Hit ‘em hard, let ‘em know who’s who. Bear down, Arizona. Bear down red and blue. Go! Go! Wildcats go! Arizona, bear down!”
Criner, Juron
The senior wide receiver for the Arizona football team finished the 2010 season with a team-leading 11 touchdowns, 82 catches and 1,233 total yards. Criner is expected to be selected in the first two rounds of the 2012 NFL Draft.
Duel in the Desert
The rivalry between Arizona and ASU began in 1899 with the first Territorial Cup, and the intensity between the Wildcats and the “other” state university hasn’t stopped since. It is renewed every year during numerous matchups between the Wildcats and the Sun Devils.

Arizona Athletics John ‘Button’ Salmon
John “Button” Salmon was one of the most famous Arizona athletes of all time. The student body president, quarterback and catcher on the baseball team is known for producing Arizona’s signature slogan “Bear down!” after the 1926 car accident that ultimately killed him. His inspiring words are painted on top of Bear Down Gymnasium in his honor.
Kenzie Fowler
The latest in the line of dominant Arizona softball pitchers, the sophomore from Canyon del Oro High School earned a 23-7 record in the regular season to go along with a 1.75 ERA and 211 strikeouts.
Lottery
Since the NBA Draft Lottery was introduced in 1985, 12 Wildcats have been selected, most recently Derrick Williams, who was selected second overall in June’s NBA Draft and tied for the highest draft position ever for a UA player.
Z Starter Keola Antolin is a nice mix of power and quickness, and has the speed to break long runs. Sophomore bruiser Daniel Jenkins had an impressive spring, and incoming freshman Ka’Deem Carey has all the physical tools necessary to become Arizona’s feature back before the end of 2011.
Sage green and silver
At the turn of the 20th century, cardinal red and navy blue hadn’t taken over Tucson quite yet. Arizona hailed sage green, representing the sage bush indigenous to the area, and silver, which represented Arizona’s silver mines. Legend has it that the colors switched to red and blue when the football team needed new uniforms and cardinal and navy were the cheapest combination.
Tuihalamaka
The name has become synonymous with Arizona football in recent memory. This year’s team has just one Tuihalamaka, Sione, who is a cousin to former linebacker Vuna Tuihalamaka. The family is of Tongan descent and is part of the pipeline of American Somoans to play at Arizona.
McKale Center
The home to Arizona men’s and women’s basketball, gymnastics and volleyball programs since it was built in 1973, McKale Center was named for the father of Arizona athletics, J.F. “Pop” McKale. McKale served as the athletic director at Arizona from 1914 to 1957.

The strength and consistency of the Arizona softball program is something that head coach Mike Candrea has spent nearly his whole career achieving.

Your guide to sitting in the Zona Zoo, the UA’s student section
Do Don’t
• Cheer as loud as possible for the Wildcats throughout the game. • Boo interceptions, fumbles, sacks or any bad play. • Question why Alex Zendejas is still the best option at kicker. • Know the players’ names, stats and strategy of the game. • Hydrate thoroughly prior to the start of the game. • Get pumped up and celebrate a big win. • Wear your Zona Zoo shirt with pride on game days and fashion yourself a Zona Zoo T-shirt dress. • Get involved in traditions like key jingling, chants or heckling opposing players. • Be a supportive and classy fan in victory and defeat. • Show up early to wait in line to get into the Zona Zoo. • Wear your “ASUcksâ€? or “ASwho?â€? shirts to games against the Sun Devils.
• Leave at halftime, intermission or the seventh inning stretch. • Say “put in Matt Scott,â€? it just turns out poorly for everyone. • Get your hopes up on extra points, ever. • Use buzzwords like “clutchâ€? every time the punter boots one more than 10 yards (although that would be an accomplishment for Zendejas). • Forget that most events don’t let you bring in beverages of any kind ‌ any kind. • Rush the ďŹ eld with a minute to go in regulation. • Feel discouraged to wear minimal clothing because ‌ it’s hot out. • Scream “touchdownâ€? when the starting power forward dunks. • Hurl half-empty water bottles, from 20 rows up, at unsuspecting visiting cheerleaders. • Roll out of bed hungover from last night with 10 minutes to game time. You won’t get in. • Invite your friends from ASU to sit with you in the Zona Zoo. — Storm Byrd

Road to the Rose Bowl By Dan Kohler and Alex Williams ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT The Pacific 10 Conference has expanded and morphed into the Pacific 12 Conference. Oregon is the only team that has separated itself from the rest of the pack, but schools like Stanford, ASU and Arizona aren’t far behind. The Summer Wildcat takes a look at each of the 12 teams in the conference.
SOUTH DIVISION Arizona Wildcats
action. ASU will again be one of the least-disciplined teams in America, continuing a trend that started with the hiring of head coach Dennis Erickson in 2007. Best-case scenario: ASU goes 11-1 with a loss to Oregon, which is enough to win the Pac12 South Division and get ASU into the conference’s inaugural championship game. Win or lose, the Devils play in the first BCS game in school history. Worst-case scenario: ASU does, well, what ASU has done the last few years under Erickson. The Devils drop a close game at home against Mizzou and go on a five-game losing streak on their way to a 4-8 season to end the Erickson era.
Colorado Buffaloes
What they have: All the tools to be a surprising Pac-12 team in 2011. Colorado returns 2010 All-Big-12 tailback Rodney Stewart, along with allconference defensive end Josh Hartigan , as well returning three-fifths of the offensive line. The Buffs also return their quarterback, and have experience at all the right positions. What they’re missing: The defense to make up for a solid-but-notoutstanding offense. The Colorado offense will be good enough to keep the Buffaloes in most of their games, but their defense won’t be able to get the stops to get wins. Last season, the Colorado defense gave up totals of 43, 45 and 52 points, which happened twice. The Buffaloes went 0-4 in those games. Best-case scenario: The Buffaloes go 9-4 overall 6-3 in conference, which is good enough to win the south division after an ASU collapse and USC’s postseason ineligibility. Colorado loses a close game and goes to the Alamo Bowl. Worst-case scenario: Colorado starts the season 1-3 in non-conference games, including a loss to California, which doesn’t count toward Pac-12 standings because the game was scheduled prior to conference expansion. The Buffaloes go on to defeat both of the Washington schools, but finish their first season in the Pac-12 at 3-10 overall.
What they have: A senior quarterback with potential to be a first-round NFL draft pick in Nick Foles, and the conference’s top receiver in Juron Criner to pair with junior transfer Dan Buckner, who is eligible after sitting out a season due to NCAA transfer rules. On the defensive side of the ball, the Wildcats return their entire back seven, though linebacker Jake Fischer and safety Adam Hall will miss time due to ACL injuries. What they’re missing: As a unit, Arizona’s offensive line has one combined start, coming from center Kyle Quinn in last year’s Alamo Bowl. The Wildcats face a similar problem on the defensive line, where redshirt sophomore tackle Justin Washington is the lone returning starter. To compound potential problems on defense, Arizona must replace two NFL draft picks in ends Ricky Elmore and Brooks Reed. Best-case scenario: Arizona goes 6-2 in conference play and 9-3 overall, and with USC’s postseason ban still in effect, that’s enough to get the Wildcats to the inaugural Pac-12 championship game and give Arizona a shot at the first Rose Bowl in school history. Worst-case scenario: The preseason injuries end up being too much for Arizona to overcome. The Wildcats go 5-7 overall with a five-game losing streak after the season opener against NAU, failing to extend their three-season-long streak of playing in a bowl game.
UCLA Bruins
ASU Sun Devils
What they have: ASU may be the second-most athletic team in the conference behind Oregon. The Sun Devils have a stable of running backs capable of producing big numbers, and a receiving corps that is talented, if unproven. ASU also has the best defensive player in the conference in junior linebacker Vontaze Burfict, who will go in the first round of the NFL Draft if he can keep the hotheaded penalties to a minimum. What they’re missing: Brock Osweiler could be the answer at quarterback, but he’s still unproven without much game experience and he tends to try to force the
Breaking down the Pac-12
Nick Foles
What they have: For the first time in a while, it looks like UCLA will have someone competent at the quarterback position. Richard Brehaut returns after starting most of 2010, and highly touted recruit Brett Hundley has been on campus since spring practice. What they’re missing: A way to protect whoever ends up at the quarterback position. UCLA is replacing most of its offensive line, PAC-12, page B15

Calling all the shots By Alex Williams ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT While the athletes making plays on the field are getting most of the attention, the coaches are on the sidelines or in the booth making those plays possible. Former coaches such as Jerry Kindall or Lute Olson will forever be entrenched in Arizona lore, but the coaches currently at the UA may be more important to the university’s athletics programs. Here’s a look at the head coaches of a few of Arizona’s athletic teams: Editor’s note: The coaches’ year at the UA refers to the year they will be in during their upcoming season.

PAC-12 continued from page B13 so whoever ends up behind center could be looking at a painful 2011 season. The Bruins also lose all-world kicker Kai Forbath , along with linebacker Akeem Ayers and safety Rahim Moore, to the NFL. Best-case scenario: UCLA goes 7-5 overall and 5-4 in conference play and ends up in the Holiday Bowl. The Bruins finally get some momentum on offense and the 2012 season will come with high expectations. Worst-case scenario: The Bruins open the season with a loss to Houston, and then beat San Jose State University before losing eight of their final 10 games of the season. Head coach Rick Neuheisel loses his job before he has a chance to drop to 0-4 against USC in the season finale.
USC Trojans
What they have: One of the big-three quarterbacks in the conference in Matt Barkley, who took a big step forward in his sophomore season. The jump between a quarterback’s sophomore and junior seasons is often the biggest, so the Trojans could have a very dangerous passing attack to go with a steady run game. What they’re missing: The defense to slow down high-powered Pac-12 offenses. The Trojans’ defense will still be a fairly solid unit, but isn’t built for stopping the sideline-tosideline spread attack that a number of teams now employ. USC’s linebackers have been disappointing the past two seasons, and the defensive line isn’t good enough to hide the linebackers’ flaws. Best-case scenario: USC goes 11-1 overall and 8-1 in the Pac-12, with the only loss coming in a close game at Oregon. The Trojans, looking to show that they are still one of the best programs in America, enter the 2012 season as a national title favorite after a dominating 2011 season. Worst-case scenario: Unmotivated because of its Andrew Luck postseason ban, USC goes 8-4 Michael Ignatov/Arizona Daily Wildcat overall and 5-4 in Pac-12 play. The Trojans’ winning streak against ASU is snapped, and Oregon hands them another blowout. The national media start to question the Lane Kiffin hire and wonder out loud if USC is still one of the nation’s top programs.
Utah Utes
What they have: A good core. Utah returns the majority of its offensive and defensive lines as well as bringing back sophomore quarterback Jordan Wynn. Head coach Kyle Whittingham has been rock-solid at Utah, and offensive coordinator Norm Chow has a wealth of experience in the former Pac-10. What they’re missing: The depth to play against BCS level teams week-in and week-out. The Utes were able to handle the Mountain West Conference fairly well, but the toughest team they had to face regularly was BYU, who would finish in the lower half of the Pac-12. Utah will struggle with this in its first Pac-12 season, but recruiting will pick up as long as the Utes can hold their own. Best-case scenario: The Utes put together a 9-3 season, going 6-3 in the Pac-12. That may or may not be enough to get Utah into the Pac-12 Championship Game, but it’s a good season for a school in its first season in a BCS conference. Worst-case scenario: Utah drops non-conference games at both BYU and Pitt, then goes 2-7 in conference play on their way to a 3-9 season. The Utes get beat up over the course of the season and drop two or three games that, on paper, it looks like they should win.
Sports NORTH DIVISION Stanford Cardinal
What they have: Senior quarterback Andrew Luck, the preseason consensus No. 1 pick for the 2012 NFL draft. Luck decided to return after securing the Cardinal an Orange Bowl win last year. Seven starters return on the defensive side and, although they had weaknesses in the secondary last year, they have the tools to further develop. What they’re missing: Head coach Jim Harbaugh was poached by the San Francisco 49ers in the offseason and he took defensive coordinator Vic Fangio with him. Now, coach David Shaw’s co-coordinator front is creating skepticism for the defensive side of Stanford’s attack. Best-case scenario: Shaw is able to jump out of Harbaugh’s shadow and bring the Cardinal another BCS bowl win. Stanford tops Oregon at home going 8-1 in conference play to secure a Pac-12 North inaugural title to give the Cardinal a chance at a Rose Bowl bid. Worst-case scenario: Chaos: the co-coordinators can’t keep up and Shaw can’t take the limelight. The Cardinal goes 5-4 in conference play including losses to Oregon, Oregon State and USC on the road.
California Golden Bears
What they have: Greater mobility at the quarterback position thanks to junior Zach Maynard, who transferred following a freshman season at the University at Buffalo where he rushed for more than 300 yards. Last season’s leading receivers Marvin Jones and Keenan Allen return as added threats to Maynard’s dynamic game. What they’re missing: Shane Vereen, all-conference running back who decided to forego his senior season and enter the draft. The loss of a back capable of a 1,000-yard season will be tough on the Golden Bears’ running attack. Best-case scenario: The Bears are able to beat both Stanford and ASU at home to finish off 6-3 conference schedule, but it won’t be enough for a Pac-12 North title. Worst-case scenario: The lack of depth at quarterback and the relatively inexperienced defensive unit takes its toll on the Bears as they fall to Washington on the road and Oregon State at home to finish off a 2-6 record in conference play.
B15
Oregon State Beavers
What they have: Junior quarterback Ryan Katz returns after a successful 2010 campaign completing 60 percent of his passes for 2,401 yards. The Beavers also get their top three receivers back in Markus Wheaton, Jordan Bishop and James Rodgers. What they’re missing: Jacquizz Rodgers was one of the most dominant running backs in the Pac-10 and the nation last year, and the hole will be tough to fill for the Oregon State ground game. With the loss of Stephen Paea, the Beavers will also be concerned with a weakened defensive line. Best-case scenario: Unfortunately for the Beavers, they cannot compete with the likes of Stanford and Oregon, but a 7-5 season could position the Beavers for a solid bowl bid. Worst-case scenario: The Beavers don’t recover from a road loss in Wisconsin and start to topple. A disappointing 4-8 season finishes with five straight losses, four of those to division opponents.
Washington Huskies
What they have: The return of running back Chris Polk, who ran for more than 1,400 yards last season and comes in as one of the conference’s best this year, will be invaluable for the Huskies as they transition into a new quarterback scheme. On the defensive side, four starters return on the line and they should have one of the best defensive fronts in years. What they’re missing: Despite quarterback Jake Locker ’s somewhat unenthusiastic numbers last season, he was still the figurehead of the Husky offense and the team will need to regroup without his leadership. Starting his third year at the helm, head coach Steve Sarkisian has yet to give the program a real reason to keep his job secure and this could be a make-or-break season for him. Best-case scenario: The Huskies can’t contend with Stanford and Oregon — no one else in the North can — so it’s essentially a battle for third and a bowl bid. They finish the season 7-5 after beating Oregon State in Corvallis and Washington State at home. Worst-case scenario: A lack of offense leads to inability to perform on the other side of the ball. The Huskies finish 4-8 after losing to Oregon State and Cal, and finish only in front of Washington State in the Pac-12 North final standings.
Washington State Cougars
What they have: The Cougars return junior quarterback Jeff Tuel, whose surprising play last season accounted for 2,780 yards and 18 touchdowns for the Wazzou offense. Washington State also returns its leading receivers from last year in Marquess Wilson and Jared Karstetter who combined for 1,664 yards and 13 touchdowns. What they’re missing: A defense. Running and passing something has to give for the Cougars on defense. Depth on their rushing attack, considering leading rusher James Montgomery only accumulated 478 yards last season, it might not be bad that he’s missing this Oregon Ducks season, as it opens up the posiWhat they have: The majority of the tion for someone to step in and offensive talent that led them to the National make an impact.

Top 5 athletes flying Fall games you don’t want to miss under the radar By Alex Williams ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT
By Kelly Hultgren ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT Welcome to the UA. Sure, you can rattle off some names of current athletes like Nick Foles, Juron Criner or maybe Kenzie Fowler, but your knowledge of UA athletics barely scratches the surface. The Summer Wildcat takes a look at the top 5 athletes that you don’t know about — whether it’s because they play a non-revenue sport or have been in the shadow of top draft picks — but you should after how they’ve performed during their time at Arizona.
Her personal best is 18.31 meters (60-1), which is currently the eighth-best outdoor throw in NCAA history and is ranked 20th in the world. Labonte transferred to Arizona from Quebec during the 2010 spring semester. Despite speaking a different language and arriving well into the 2010 season, Labonte managed to place 12th in the indoor and fourth in the outdoor national championships in her debut as a Wildcat.
Solomon Hill, basketball
As a sophomore, Arizona basketball’s Solomon Hill put up impressive numbers from rebounds to scoring averages last season. The 6-foot-6 forward hailing from Los Angeles was one of three players to start all 38 games, along with Derrick Williams and Momo Jones. In the 2011 NCAA Tournament, Hill averaged 9.5 points and 7 rebounds a game, and was named to the IBN Sports Las Vegas Invitational all-tournament team after averaging 10 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2 assists during the November tournament. Arizona head coach Sean Miller deemed Hill as the Wildcats’ most improved player last season, and, with Williams drafted to the Minnesota Timberwolves and Jones’ decision to transfer, Hill will play an even bigger role during his junior season.
Stephen Sambu, track and cross-country
Arizona men’s track and field distance runner Stephen Sambu, originally from Eldoret, Kenya, had a record-breaking 2010-2011 season after transferring from Rend Lake Community College in Southern Illinois. In his first Division I level 10,000-meter race, Sambu broke a 12-year-old school record with his time of 27:28.64. The junior also holds the 5,000-meter indoor record for Arizona after earning AllAmerica honors for the race in the NCAA Indoor Championships. Sambu took home another AllAmerica honor at the outdoor championships after placing third in the 10,000-meter race. Earlier last year, Sambu competed on Arizona’s crosscountry team, where he earned his first All-America honors after finishing second in the NCAA Cross Country Championships. Sambu is a Pacific 10 Conference Athlete of the Week.
Alyssa Anderson, swim
Julie Labonte, track
In her sophomore year, Arizona women’s track and field thrower Julie Labonte had a perfect 2010-2011 season. For shot put, Labonte went undefeated in every regular season meet and also took home both the indoor and Solomon Hill outdoor national titles for the event. Arizona Daily Wildcat

With the fall semester comes the start of NCAA athletic events, including football, volleyball and, at the end of the semester, basketball. Here’s a look at five sporting events you won’t want to miss during your first semester on the UA campus: Arizona football versus Stanford, Sept. 17 You don’t want to miss your chance to see the nation’s top quarterback and eventual No. 1 draft pick Andrew Luck play live. This showdown is also Arizona’s first Pac-12 contest, which adds a little sentimental value to this matchup. Arizona won in a thriller the last time these teams met in Tucson, but wasn’t competitive in last year’s game in Palo Alto, Calif. For Arizona, the matchup comes in the middle of the toughest four-game stretch any team in America plays in 2011. Arizona football versus Oregon, Sept. 24 After taking a halftime lead to the locker room the last time these two teams met, Arizona rolled over in the second half, succumbing to Oregon’s high-octane, fast-paced offense. But now the showdown is in Tucson, and the early-season date gives Arizona the benefit of the desert heat. But don’t forget that Oregon is the two-time reigning conference champion, and lost in the BCS National Championship Game to Auburn on a last-second field goal. Oregon also boasts Heisman candidate LaMichael James in the backfield. Arizona volleyball versus California, Oct. 22 This match is tucked away in the middle of the Arizona’s schedule, but it pits two of the Pac-12’s top volleyball programs against each other. The last time the two teams met in Tucson, the Wildcats took a 2-0 lead before falling in five sets. California is the defending Pac-10 champion, finishing last season with a 15-3 conference record, and ended the season ranked the No. 2 team in America. Arizona basketball Red-Blue game, Oct. 22 It comes in the middle of football season, but Arizona’s Red-Blue intersquad basketball scrimmage is a sign that basketball season — which reigns supreme in Tucson — is just around the corner. It’s also the public’s first look at highly regarded recruits like Nick Johnson or Josiah Turner, as well as offering a chance to see how established players like Kevin Parrom or Solomon Hill have added to their game. Last year’s scrimmage featured a dunk contest won by guard Brendon Lavender, and expect more of the same this year. Arizona basketball versus ASU, Dec. 31 ASU and Arizona open Pac-12 play with the Duel in the Desert on New Year’s Eve. Arizona has won three of the last four matchups between the two schools, but ASU is bringing in one of the conference’s top recruits, guard Jahii Carson.

Trevin Wade, football
Trevin Wade
Arizona Daily Wildcat
A senior on the Arizona football team, Wade could be the most important piece of a secondary that looks to rebound from a tough 2010 season. Wade earned first-team All-Pac-10 honors as a sophomore and second-team all-conference honors as a freshman, though he struggled as a junior. Entering his third year as a starter, Wade is seven pass break-ups from being in the top-10 of the UA’s all-time list. Wade has 10 career interceptions, including one returned for a score against top-10 Iowa in 2010.

What to expect from UA sports 3. A deep baseball pitching staff
By Alex Williams ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT
1. A high-flying basketball season
Arizona might be the most athletic basketball team in the Pacific 12 Conference this season. With the additions of Nick Johnson and Angelo Chol , the Wildcats will have athleticism top-to-bottom on the roster. Johnson, a six-foot-three guard from Nevada , has shown outstanding leaping ability and is one of the top on-ball defenders in the class. Chol, a six-foot-nine forward , has the second-most blocks in high school history with 1,120 . He was the final piece to head coach Sean Miller ’s recruiting class, which is ranked fourth in the country by Rivals.com. Along with adding Johnson and Chol, Arizona returns athletic wingmen Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom , which gives the Wildcats the potential to be one of the best defensive teams in America this season.
2. An up-and-down football season

4. Better special teams
The saying goes that it’s always funny until someone gets hurt, and that will be the case with Arizona’s special teams this year, specifically the kicking game. The last few seasons, special teams have been a weakness, but not something that was costing the team games. That changed on Dec. 2 game against ASU, and coupled with the miscues in the Alamo Bowl loss to Oklahoma State , the Wildcats know that poor special teams play won’t cut it this season in the revamped Pac-12. Throw in blazing-fast return man Garic Wharton and junior college transfer punter Kyle Dugandzic , who blasted a 72-yard punt in the spring game , and Arizona’s special teams have a drastically different look entering 2011.
5. McKale returns to form
In the ‘90s and early 2000s, McKale Center was one of the toughest venues for opposing teams to visit in all of America. But during the coaching carousel between Lute Olson and Sean Miller, that homecourt advantage slipped, and McKale was at less than 100 percent capacity for most non-conference games. But during the end of 2011’s conference championship run, some of that magic crept back into the building. Sold-out crowds were the norm, and that trend should continue after Miller signed the No. 4 recruiting class in the country to go along with returning four of five starters from the Pac-10 champion team.

WHAT’S GOING ON?
WHAT’S GOING ON?
Arizona football fans will feel euphoric this season after the Wildcats upset one of the three top-10 teams they play in their first four games this season, but fans will also be mystified by the Wildcats dropping a game they should win. It’s not that Arizona doesn’t have the players to compete, there’s just not much you can do when playing a schedule as tough as Arizona’s while replacing all five starters on the offensive line. Consistency will likely be an issue all season long while breaking in those five new starters. This will become all the more important since safety Adam Hall and linebacker Jake Fischer need to be replaced after both suffered serious knee injuries during spring practice — keeping them out of action until October at the earliest.
Arizona already has one of the better pitching staffs in the Pac-10 with sophomore Kurt Heyer and junior Kyle Simon toeing the rubber. Although Simon signed with the Baltimore Orioles, Sunday starter Konner Wade returns following a solid freshman season. Along with two-thirds of the starting rotation, Arizona returns junior reliever Nick Cunningham, and junior Tyler Hale, who has starting experience.
