JAZZ HANDS

Students look for positions in the sustainability field By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Though students are donning red and blue for graduation, the color that is on many of their minds is green. From solar panel construction to sustainable architecture, the UA and other partnerships are helping students to pursue green jobs. Lizzie Schloss, the interim director of Career Services, noting the breadth of the field, urged students to figure out where they want to be within the field before jumping in. “The first step is for students to think about how they want to work in sustainability and the specific skills they have,” Schloss said. “The next step is to think about the type of organization. The sustainability movement is affecting all sectors of the work world. Because the field is so broad and encompasses so many types of positions and organizations, it means students have to commit to spending time researching information. We have a number of resources to assist students.”

Audio 6 members Ben Tevik, a clarinet performance major, and Will Houchin, a music education and tuba performance major, perform on the UA Mall on Thursday. Audio 6 and other students from the Careers in Music course, MUS427B, showcased their talents on the Mall as part of a class project.

ASU’s president inspires UA crowd By Bethany Barnes ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT When Arizona State University President Michael Crow spoke at the Student Union Memorial Center on Thursday, every seat was taken. He addressed UA students, faculty, staff and local community members about issues in higher education. “Higher education is facing an unprecedented economic crisis. The nationwide economic recession has left many state budgets in an upheaval and has severely impacted institutions of higher education across the United States,” according to a UA press release about the lecture series. Crow had the crowd laughing, and many audience members found the talk inspiring. “I think it was very impressive. He came with solutions,” said UA higher education graduate student Arlene Benavidez .

Nutritional sciences senior Let’s talk about politics in the leastserious way possible. Who’s sexier, Barack Obama or the late, great JFK? JFK. Right answer. Who has better style, Michelle Obama or Jackie O? Jackie, she was groundbreaking. Fact. Do you think Michelle is fierce? She’s pretty fierce. Yeah, definitely a bangin’ mom. And her arms are bananas, she can definitely rock a sleeveless dress. She’s way sexier than Laura Bush. Laura Bush looks like … A librarian? Yes, exactly. Would you rather make out with George W. Bush or Ronald Reagan? Probably Ronald Reagan. Would you rather smoke a joint with Laura Bush or Barbara Bush? Laura Bush, because I think she has a crazy side. How do you think JFK was able to sneak around with all those other women? Because Jackie was busy doing other things, maybe? Like commissioning pillbox hats and perfectly tailored suits? And being best friends with Valentino. Good point. Would you rather take ecstasy with Dwight D. Eisenhower or Abe Lincoln? Abe Lincoln. Right answer. Why Abe? He sounds smarter. Definitely. Dwight was sort of a dud. And he’s from Kansas. Do you think Eleanor Roosevelt was a lesbian? I don’t think so. I heard she was doing witchcraft in the White House though. Like lesbian witchcraft? (Laughs.) Probably. I don’t know how much sex there is in witchcraft. If you were president, and you could pick one celebrity to be your first lady, who would you pick? That would be … Lady Gaga. Amazing answer. Is America ready for first Lady Gaga? I don’t think so. Would she have to start wearing pants? Maybe, like when the politicians from other countries came for dinner. Good thinking. — Claire Engelken

Activision locks up `Halo’ creators for 10 years SANTA MONICA, Calif. — Activision Blizzard Inc., currently embroiled in a legal shootout with two of its former game developers, has locked up the makers of “Halo” in an exclusive 10-year deal. The company said Thursday it will bring to market the next big action game universe from Bungie, the video game studio behind “Halo,” “Myth,” and “Marathon.” It marks Bungie’s first such partnership since breaking off from

Microsoft in 2007. Under the deal, Activision will have exclusive worldwide rights to publish and distribute all future Bungie games based on the universe on multiple platforms and devices. Jason Jones, who co-founded Bungie in 1991 and led the creation of “Halo,” is heading up the development team. Multiple game releases and the creation of an online community are also part of the deal, executives said. “We certainly think of the success

we’ve built in `Halo’ over the last 10 years as a minimum bar for the success we plan multiples of in the future,” Harold Ryan, president of Bungie, said in an interview. Thomas Tippl, Activision’s chief operating officer, said Bungie laid out a compelling vision of the universe. “When it’s ready and when we’re talking about it, I think you will be blown away,” he said. — The Associated Press

PHOENIX — Colombian singer Shakira planned to visit Phoenix on Thursday over concerns that a sweeping new state law cracking down on illegal immigration will lead to racial profiling. The Grammy winner was set to meet with Phoenix’s police chief and mayor to learn more about how the law will be implemented if it goes into effect this summer, said Trevor Nielson, her political and philanthropic adviser. The law, signed Friday by Republican Gov. Jan Brewer, is viewed as the toughest on illegal immigration in the nation and has drawn criticism from President Barack Obama, who questioned its Shakira legality. The law makes it a state crime to be in the U.S. illegally and directs police to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they’re illegal immigrants. “Shakira is deeply concerned about the impact of this law on hardworking Latino families,” Nielson said. “She is coming to Arizona to try to learn more about how law enforcement is reacting to this new law and how we can ensure that people in the state of Arizona are not being targeted because of the color of their skin.” He said Shakira canceled other commitments to make the visit and also planned to meet with Hispanic families in Phoenix to see how they’d be affected by the law. Nielson said Shakira also sought to meet with Brewer during her visit to Phoenix, but that the governor’s director of scheduling told Nielson it wouldn’t be possible because the governor was booked. The new law thrust Arizona into the international spotlight last week, with civil rights leaders and others demanding a boycott of the state, and the Mexican government warning its citizens about an“adverse political atmosphere”in Arizona. At least three Arizona cities are considering lawsuits to block the law, and there are two efforts to put a referendum on Arizona’s November ballot to repeal it. Supporters of the law say it takes the handcuffs off police and is necessary to protect Arizonans, while opponents say it will lead to rampant racial profiling. Shakira is perhaps best known for her nimble dance moves and songs including“Hips Don’t Lie”and“She-Wolf,”but recently she has become more active in political and social issues. She visited earthquake-ravaged Haiti earlier this month, expressed her support for Cuban dissident group Ladies in White and has worked as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador. Her Barefoot foundation provides nutrition to more than 6,000 children in Colombia, and she is a member of the ALAS foundation that advocates for children across Latin America. — The Associated Press

According to Bennett, they’re“going for more of a laid-back feel”this time around. Instead of having eight bands play for four hours, tonight’s concert will feature two bands and will last two hours. The bands scheduled to perform are The Hounds and Affinity. Affinity — a band influenced by the Goo Goo Dolls, The Fray and Switchfoot — played in the first benefit concert last year and are looking forward to tonight’s performance. “It’s a win-win situation,”said Stephen

The national honorary band sorority is doing its part to make a change, but it isn’t taking a conventional approach. Instead, the group is using its love of music to reach the campus masses on the UA Mall. Tau Beta Sigma is hosting its second annual VH1 Save the Music Concert today from 5 to 7 p.m. All proceeds go directly to VH1’s Save the Music Foundation. “Everyone loves music and everyone listens to music,” said Rachel Bennett, the vice president of activities of Tau

Marcoux, the lead singer of Affinity and a senior majoring in biology and physiology. “We get to share our music with others and help raise money for music programs.” This year, Save the Music will be an open concert; attendees can come and go as they please. Tau Beta Sigma is trying to get more people to attend this year in order to reach its goal of raising between $700 and $800. Last year the sorority raised just over $500. The event, synched with the final week of classes, provides a welcome break from writing papers and studying. “Come walk on the Mall, enjoy a couple of songs,”Bennett said.“It’s a good option for people to do on a Friday night the week before finals start. It may be your last hangout before finals.”

Campus sustainability leads to careers

continued from page 1

Rodney Haas/Arizona Daily Wildcat

This summer, Career Services will be formulating information on social impact careers, such as those in sustainability, and expect to offer new websites and workshops when students return for the fall semester. The definition of a “green job”is hard to determine. “For instance, let’s take a nuclear physicist that goes to work in a nuclear power plant. Is that a green job?” said Marshall Vest, director of economic business research. “How about someone who goes to work on an assembly line building hybrid cars? Is that a green job? Some might say then

the car is hybrid, and then it’s green. But others might say that building a car itself is clearly not.” Vest noted that sustainability efforts around campus can help students gain access to work in sustainability. The Arizona Research Institute for Solar Energy, or AzRise, has been working with the College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture toward including sustainability in their program for several years. Many organizations around Tucson, including Sustainable Tucson, are utilizing the students’ training in sustainability. Sustainable Tucson

is an organization that facilitates Tucson’s sustainability mission through education and collaborative action. Judith Mattson, a co-chair at Sustainable Tucson, noted that they both create sustainable materials and educate people about sustainability through public relations. For many students, the prospect of finding green jobs is promising but unclear. “I think it’s worthwhile to develop an understanding of what green really means,” Vest said. “All of this can help students find something that might help their resume, and that’s a green job.”

Crow: ‘It’s either adapt or fail’

Crow talked about excellence, access and impact at the last higher education colloquium of the semester. Some had concerns about the attainability of the solutions and goals presented. “It’s a very inspiring presentation, and I’m glad we have a university working towards those needs,” said Patrick Bryan, who works in Early Academic Outreach at the UA.“While it’s inspiring to see it, I just hope they are successful in doing that.” Crow talked about how ASU remains focused on its vision during troubling times in education. “The vision is what you wish you could be, what you hope to be,” Crow said. “In our case we are trying to establish ASU as the model of this new American university.” The speech did not present a negative outlook on the future of higher education, but instead focused on

how ASU can grow and change to meet challenges. “It’s either adapt or fail,” Crow said. Striving to get more and more applicants while knowing you will only accept the same number each year in order to achieve a low acceptance rate is a “cruel game,” according to Crow. He said ASU wants to be measured on what they produce, not by who they leave out. “The one thing we have really tried to do at ASU is change our perception of change,” Crow said. ASU strives to focus on the individual and give a college opportunity for those who are qualified, he said in the speech. “It will be as if they were able to go to one of those high-priced, inaccessible universities,” Crow said. “We are trying to make sure we have unbelievable impact in Arizona.”

Undergrads shouldn’t stand for $100 Big Macs By Wei Dai Guest Columnist

n what kind of performance should a professor’s salary be based? Research performance, or teaching performance? Most undergraduate students, like myself, would prefer teaching performance rather than research performance. If we think of the education industry as the fast food industry, students would be the customers and professors would be cooks in different restaurants. In this metaphor, professors’ lectures and teaching would be different burgers. If a professor can’t teach well, no matter how great he or she is in terms of research, it means that professor only serves Big Macs to customers (students), even though the professor can make extremely nice burgers at their own home. Nobody would purchase a normal Big Mac for $100, even if the cook is the champion of Hamburger Making of Tucson 2010. It’s exactly the same situation in the universities: undergraduate students don’t care that much about how great the professor is as a researcher. Instead, they care about how much they can learn from the class, which is what students pay for. College students are paying a great deal for tuition as well as living fees. What students care about is the quality of the “burger” — the teaching quality of the course. We students desire high-quality classes. We are willing to pay $100 for a burger only if it is worth that much. What the university should do is not hire famous burger makers to make their Big Macs, but serve burgers that are better than Big Macs. I can comment on this issue from my own experience as a methematics junior at the UA. Since the instructor of one of my upper-division math courses got her doctorate at an Ivy League school, there is no doubt that she is superbrilliant at what she does in her own work. The problem was that students couldn’t understand her lectures. Sixteen out of 38 students dropped this class even though it is the only section offered in this academic year. I think a lot of people have similar experiences: a professor is extremely good in his or her area, but can’t explain the material to the students well. He or she can only serve Big Macs in class, and inedible ones at that. This is obviously far from ideal. The reason behind this is situation is that, nowadays, the main criterion in determining a faculty member’s salary is research performance, which certainly also affects the decision of whether the university will hire someone or not. The consequence is that a lot of championship burger-makers are hired to serve Big Macs in the universities. What should we do, as undergraduate students, to get our money’s worth? Here are a few suggestions of what we can do to force burger-makers to improve the quality of their burgers: First, the faculty evaluation is coming up soon. Be serious about it. Mark it down when a professor doesn’t know how to teach. The evaluation may be used for assessment of the instructor’s teaching performance. Beside that, we can also talk to the department heads and deans and let them know what’s going on in a course if we believe the teaching is poor. Be polite and specific. Let deans know how you think the courses should be improved. This is what we did in the class I mentioned above. A lot of students have talked about this class with the dean. The math department actually sent out other instructors to evaluate her class. This university prides itself in being one of the top research institutions in the country. Virtually every day there is an announcement of awards won by UA researchers or new grants and projects coming to the university. That’s great. But we undergraduates must, in every way we can, raise our voice to be heard that we want, we demand the quality of undergraduate instructions rise to the same high level. After all, undergraduates are the majority of the students at the UA. We pay a lot for our education, and we want the quality product.

MAILBAG Letters to the editor K-12 killer

Laura Donovan’s column (High school math a reasonable UA course, April 28) misses the bigger issues underlying the UA’s need to offer high school math classes. First of all, it makes sense that the UA is adding remedial math classes, because students should receive the help they need in order to succeed. What worries me is that remedial classes such as intermediate algebra are even necessary. The fact that these classes are needed means that students aren’t learning what they should have throughout K-12 education. Our students are in need of a rigorous curriculum accompanied by the right teachers, funds, guidance, resources, motivation, etc. to ensure they are ready for the challenges that accompany college-level academics. This begins in first-grade and continues all the way up to graduation in May of their senior year. Teaching university students high school-level math is one solution to some of the educational roadblocks that freshmen face. Remedial classes, however, are ultimately the wrong solutions. We must address the fundamental problems that are causing this need — not necessarily the students, but an inadequate system during K-12 education. — Alex Yang Aerospace engineering and applied mathematics sophomore

Fraternity’s fraternity

I found it interesting that the Daily Wildcat wrote an article about a missing student from ASU. Though the student, Daniel Heidlinger, does not attend our school, I think it is still important to worry about his disappearance. The article mentions Heidlinger’s involvement in the Sigma Chi fraternity and UA Sigma Chi’s involvement in aiding in his search. This information changed my perspective on fraternities. I have always thought that being in a fraternity was mostly for the excitement of being in a group of people that hosts outrageous college parties. However, I now see that these fraternities are truly a brotherhood. The fact that UA Sigma Chi is working to help find a fraternity brother that went missing at another school is touching and shows their care for others in their greater fraternity community.

time in Israel, I want to comment on the mall display of the Palestinian students. Though it is hard to achieve any message with a display, I think the effort that has been achieved is quite good. The display is extremely visual and it requires spending some time to talk with the Palestinian students. What is needed is to listen to their point of view on the situation that currently exists between Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. The thing that most impressed me, a strong Zionist, was the amount of time that the student representatives spent with me discussing the issues. Over the past two days, we spent hours talking, a Muslim Palestinian, a Christian Palestinian and myself, a Jew with Israeli citizenship. We each listened to the others, not necessarily agreeing, but spending time trying to understand each others’ views. We, all three of us, put effort in not simply talking about historical right and history of the conflict, but what things are like today for both peoples and how, if at all possible, we can move forward. Others gathered around and listened to what was a civil and considerate discourse. Maybe this is, itself, a start. — Ken Miller Graduate student

Freshman face fascism

Resident assistants across all of the on-campus dorms abuse their privileges, and students’ rights. RA’s can write a person up for hearing clanking bottles or smelling a substance or, even worse, call the police if you don’t “cooperate and open the door.” I didn’t know this was North Korea. We live in America, and college students have rights too. If someone doesn’t want to open a door to their residence, they should not have to without a warrant, nor should they be penalized by community service and fines for it. — Alex Caniglia undergraduate

Call for CatCard expanison

— Emily Forman Creative writing undergraduate

Are you physically sick of eating the same food that your CatCard meal plan offers? Aren’t Burger King, Panda Express and Highland Market getting a little too old? It’s time for students to have the freedom of choice. I think it’s ridiculous how places such as Jimmy John’s don’t take CatCard. The CatCard meal plan needs to extend to University Boulevard and Fourth Avenue, where local cuisine and culture lines the streets. Colleges out east such as Penn State have an “uptown” where the student population creates the college-town atmosphere. UA lacks college-town atmosphere. Dining at local restaurants, students can enjoy what the city of Tucson has to offer, making the whole college experience come alive. College students are broke. Students have to spend their own personal money to eat off-campus food that is right next to their dorm. With this extension, students can make use of the practically non-existent trolley to get to the different varieties of local restaurants. University leaders and the student body president need to recognize the benefits and include an off-campus meal plan option to places on University and Fourth. If extended, these two streets will be flooded with students, making the environment of Tucson a chill college vibe that students need and will benefit from. In time, 21 and older students would start going to the bars, helping improve the local nightlife. This will also help the local economy, as local restaurants can make money from student purchased meal plans. Everybody wins. Likewise, students can take advantage of these places, transforming it into college life. This will add another facet to UA as not just a Greek Life school but also a bar town which, in turn, would attract much more interest from prospective students. The extended off-campus meal plan would bring the UA to the next level by adding the element of cultural atmosphere that would fulfill the full college experience.

‘Greek’ geek

Being a comedy movie fanatic, I was excited to see what the reviews were for the new movie, “Get Him to the Greek.” In the article by Zachary Smith, the movie was rated a B+, and I am happy to see that a movie coming out with two of my favorite comedians, Jonah Hill and Russell Brand, received a pretty good rating. After learning that the director of the movie“Forgetting Sarah Marshall”was the same director for “Greek” as well, I cannot wait (for it) to hit the movie theater. This article let me know that this movie could be just as big of a hit as “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” because it is essentially a continuation of that movie. I laughed hysterically every time Hill and Brand were in a scene together in“Marshall,”so I’m excited to see what jokes they have in store for this new movie. However, I was disappointed to learn from this article that Jason Segal passed on writing this film as he is also one of my favorite comedians. All in all, Zachary Smith promised us readers that this film will have“more belly laughs than any other comedy so far this year,”and I am going to hold him to that.

Keepinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; it classy

A University of Arizona Police Department officer was called to the Kaibab-Huachuca Residence Hall on Saturday at 12:12 a.m. after a resident assistant reported an intoxicated woman in the lobby. When the officer arrived to the dorm, he found the woman lying on a couch in the lobby next to a pile of her vomit. The officer could smell a strong amount of alcohol on the woman as she verbally identified herself as a UA student. The woman told the officer that she had drunk about 12 shots of liquor, but could not remember whether she drank vodka or tequila. The officer diverted the woman to the dean of students for a Code of Conduct violation rather than arresting her, but she was warned that if she did not complete the requirements of the dean, she would be arrested for minor in possession. The woman was picked up from the residence hall by her sister.

Police pick up preteen puppet pilferer

A UAPD officer arrived to the UofA Bookstore on Saturday at 2:02 p.m. after a bookstore security employee reported a shoplifter. The security officer told the UAPD officer that he saw the man take two finger puppets that were on display and walk out of the store without paying for the them. The two finger puppets, resembling Barack Obama and Sherlock Holmes, were worth $12.63. After getting a copy of the surveillance video, the officer met with the shoplifter in a conference room. The shoplifter was waiting with his chaperone from a school field trip and stated he was 14 years old and not affiliated with the UA. The student told the officer that he was on a field trip with his school and went into the bookstore. He said he intentionally took the puppets because it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;temptingâ&#x20AC;? and he chose to steal something small because â&#x20AC;&#x153;stealing something like a laptop would be weirdâ&#x20AC;? for his first time. He also told the officer that his parents usually give him money to pay for things. The student was placed under arrest for shoplifting and his mother was called. The mother told the officer that he could be released to his chaperone because she lived an hour away. The surveillance video and a receipt of the finger puppets were placed into UAPD property as evidence. A victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights form was also forwarded to UA Risk Management.

Obscene, unseen vandal hits gym

A UAPD officer was called on Saturday at 3:21 p.m. after a woman reported vandalism done to the Ina A. Gittings gym at 1713 E. University Blvd. The woman is a coach of the adaptive sports group Goalball and was using the gym from 12 to 3 p.m. when she noticed damage done to a fire extinguisher on the opposite side of the gym as they were finishing their activities. When she first saw some powder on the floor, the woman did not realize it was from the fire extinguisher and thought it was gymnastics powder, because the blue mats that are used for gymnastics were out. The woman said the group using the gym consisted of visual and hearing-impaired individuals, and they did not see the damage until they were leaving the gym through the west hallway on the way to the restrooms. The office arrived to the gym and met with a custodial employee who showed him the damage. Damage included broken glass on both fire extinguisher boxes and fire extinguisher discharge on the floor of the west side of the gym as well as in the west hallway. There were also obscene words, pictures and other graffiti written in chalk on the chalkboard on the west wall of the gym. Photos of the vandalism were taken and placed in UAPD property as evidence. There are no suspects or witnesses of the vandalism.

DWsports Controlling their own destiny UA golf

Nicole Dimtsios Sports Editor 520•626•2956 sports@wildcat.arizona.edu

set for NCAAs By Alex Williams Arizona Daily Wildcat

While the Arizona women’s golf team knows its place in the NCAA tournament, the men’s team is sweating out the release of the tournament field. “It’s hard to say at the moment (whether UA will receive a bid or not), we just have to sit tight and wait for the results to come in,” said junior Tarquin MacManus, UA’s scoring leader. MacManus, the individual champion in last year’s Southeast regional at Central Florida, has excelled in postseason play. The Queensland, Australia, native and his teammates appeared to have a solid grasp on one of the available at-large spots but may have put their postseason hopes at risk after finishing ninth at the Pacific 10 Conference Championships. The Wildcats are currently No. 38 in the latest Golfweek/Sagarin performance index. The women’s team clinched a berth in the NCAA tournament by winning the Pac-10 tournament, and was later assigned to the West regional, which is hosted by Stanford this year. The Wildcat women are currently the nation’s No. 3 team according to Golfweek/Sagarin. The two tournaments have one big difference — the men’s bracket has six regional locations: Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Yale, San Diego State and Washington, while the women’s bracket includes three regional locations: East Carolina, Indiana and Stanford. The top seven teams in each bracket advance to the NCAA Championships. The men’s team finished second at last year’s regional, 11 strokes behind Central Florida. Arizona women’s golf finished seventh at least year’s West regional, hosted by ASU. The women’s tournament begins May 6, while the men’s tournament begins May 13.

Sophomore second baseman Kristen Arriola connects on a pitch during an 8-0 win over Oregon State on Saturday at Hillenbrand Stadium. The Arizona softball team will head to the Bay Area to take on California in a three-game series this weekend.

Softball faces Cal in a chance to improve Pac-10 road success By Kevin Zimmerman Arizona Daily Wildcat For the No. 3 Arizona softball team to play as well outside the state as it does within, head coach Mike Candrea wants his players to do anything necessary to feel comfortable. Even if that means taking Hillenbrand Stadium on the road. “Whether you have to bring some dirt from Hillenbrand and bring it on the road, sprinkle it down and feel that you’re at home, you have to do it,” Candrea said. “I told them we have to win on the road. We have to go out and

play a hot team with Cal.” Playing away from home for the next two weekends, the Wildcats (38-7, 8-4 Pacific 10 Conference) will need to perform well to ensure they will play some portion of the offseason at Hillenbrand. That road mission begins today at 3 p.m. against No. 16 California (35-13, 5-7) in Berkeley, Calif. the first of a three-game weekend set against the Golden Bears. With three Pac-10 series remaining before the postseason selections, Arizona could solidify a favorable position by winning at least two of the three games in each series, all of which are against top-25 opponents — Cal,

No. 18 Oregon and No. 6 UCLA. Appearing content with the season’s accomplishments, Candrea foresees that his 2010 softball squad has the talent to make a successful postseason run. “I feel good about this team,”he said. “I feel good where we’re at. I feel like we’re putting some pieces together. “Sometimes my high expectations overload them a little bit, but in reality, they’re here because I think that I don’t see what they are today but what they are down the road,” he added. “You’ve got to continue to push.” SOFTBALL, page 8

Quick hits • Second baseman Kristen Arriola bought a new blue mouth guard after getting hit in the lip during Sunday’s pregame warm-ups, adding to a recent trend by the infielders, according to Arredondo. • Despite a recent slump, freshman Brigette Del Ponte still leads the NCAA in RBIs per game, coming in with 1.35 per contest. • Arizona is currently the No. 17 team in the NCAA for fielding percentage.

Suns advance to meet San Antonio The Associated Press PORTLAND, Ore. — Jason Richardson scored 28 points, including five 3-pointers, and the Phoenix Suns advanced to the second round of the playoffs with a 99-90 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers in Game 6 on Thursday night. The sixth-seeded Suns will face seventh-seeded San Antonio, which advanced by beating Dallas 97-97 on Thursday night. The opening game of the Western Conference semifinals is Monday night in Phoenix.

The Suns last went to the second round in 2007, when they got past the Los Angeles Lakers to open the playoffs before falling to the Spurs. In 2008, the Spurs got the best of Phoenix in the first round. Grant Hill of the Suns advanced past the first round for the first time in his career. The Suns went up 53-41 at halftime and led by as many as 16 points in the second half. The Blazers tied it at 76 midway through the fourth quarter, but could not pull ahead.

Martell Webster had 19 points for Portland, which failed to advance out of the first round for the second straight year. The Blazers narrowed it to 74-71 with 10:44 left on Rudy Fernandez’s 3-pointer. Jared Dudley fouled Webster on a 3-point attempt, and Webster made two free throws to close within 74-73. After Leandro Barbosa’s bank shot, Jerryd Bayless hit a long jumper that pulled Portland within one. Amare Stoudemire fouled LaMarcus Aldridge, who made one of two free

throws to tie it at 76. Stoudemire’s layup prevented Portland from taking the lead, and Goran Dragic added a rebound to put the Suns in front 80-76. Phoenix extended it on two consecutive layups and a 3-pointer from Richardson to make it 87-78 with 4:36 left. Steve Nash sealed it with a 3-pointer that gave the Suns a 92-82 lead. Stoudemire finished with 22 points for the Suns. Brandon Roy had 14 points for the Blazers in his first start of

the series. Portland’s three-time All-Star had arthroscopic surgery for a torn meniscus in his right knee two days before the series against the Suns opened. He was originally ruled out of the first round, but unexpectedly came back for Game 4, which the Blazers won 96-87 at the Rose Garden. Roy had 10 points in that game, then got just five in Portland’s 107-88 Game 5 loss in Phoenix, but he was coming off the bench which he said made him uncomfortable.

The No. 19 Arizona baseball team faces a different type of test this weekend. It’s not whether the Wildcats can compete against an elite team, but whether they can take care of a team they should beat. Arizona travels to play last-place USC in Los Angeles, Calif., with the first pitch scheduled for tonight at 6:30. Head coach Andy Lopez, a native of Los Angeles, made it sound unlikely that Arizona (28-11, 8-7 Pacific 10 Conference) would overlook the Trojans. “It’s USC, and it’s Pac-10 baseball,” Lopez said. “I grew up in L.A., I watched them win national championships and had a buddy play and win four in a row there.” Both the Wildcats and Trojans, two of just seven teams to win at least 2,500 games, have a storied past. But it’s been a rough year for the NCAA’s leader in national championships. The Trojans (17-23, 3-12) are the only team in the Pac-10 this season with a record below .500, and they have yet to win a conference series in 2010. Arizona freshman ace Kurt Heyer will assume his normal spot on the mound as the Fridaynight guy. The Edison, Calif., native doesn’t

dismiss the Trojans either, expecting them to put up a fight all weekend. “USC, they’re not doing the best of jobs, but they’re going to be really hungry to get a win this weekend, so we’re trying to get a sweep from them,”Heyer said. “Hopefully we can stay focused, because this is a time where we can’t make mistakes.” Arizona enters a crucial part of the season as it tries to secure a spot in the postseason. Last weekend, the Wildcats lost a tough series to No. 5 UCLA, and Lopez harped to his team that he didn’t want to see youth used as an excuse anymore. “(Lopez) wants you to play like you’ve been here before, play like we’ve been doing this for 30 games, play like we’ve been practicing for this since 7 months ago,”said sophomore outfielder Steve Selsky. With a postseason berth in sight — ESPN.com had the Wildcats in the field of 64 this week — Heyer spoke about the attitude the team needs to maintain down the stretch. “This is going to be a big month for us,” he said. “We’re already at the point where we can’t act like freshmen anymore. We should have a veteran mentality right now. People always say,‘We’re young, we’re young,’but that shouldn’t be the case anymore because we’ve already established ourselves.” BASEBALL, page 12

Softball: No. 3 Arizona softball at No.16 California I seem to recall the Wildcats getting swept the last time they had a big weekend series against an elite team on the road. That’s just life in Pac-10 softball, I guess. This is a chance for the ’Cats to get back on track against a good team. Arizona will drop the first one 4-3 in the bottom of the seventh, but then will come back and run-rule the rest of the weekend. Arizona wins series 2-1

California is more frisky than fantastically talented, but the Golden Bears have the energy and will to cause the Wildcats concern. However, Arizona is rolling and playing with a purpose right now. A gypsy with a crystal ball couldn’t guess who head coach Mike Candrea will throw in the circle, but I suspect he throws ace Kenzie Fowler only two of the three weekend games.

Arizona hasn’t played at California since 2008, because rain canceled the ’09 matchup. If Arizona hopes to keep its six-game winning streak alive, it will have to make this year’s trip to Berkeley more productive. The road hasn’t been kind to the Wildcats this season, but Kenzie Fowler has had some time to adjust to the Pac-10 away from Hillenbrand after winning two of three at ASU and getting swept at Washington. After all, the third time’s the charm.

Arizona wins series 2-1

Arizona sweeps

Baseball: No. 19 Arizona baseball at USC Arizona baseball’s season has been a great story. Head coach Andy Lopez gutted the whole team from last year and brought in new guys — and it’s worked. National ranking? Last year that would’ve made a UA baseball diehard laugh. But despite being ranked this year, the Wildcats have been pretty average in the Pac-10. I expect Lopez to stick it to the Trojans this weekend. Arizona sweeps

Arizona won only one game in the UCLA weekend series, and head coach Andy Lopez doesn’t want to use youth as an excuse. Word has it that after Game 3 against the Bruins last weekend, Lopez laid the lecture on his team for a good hour and a half before allowing them to leave the ballpark. In my opinion, he had a good coaching approach — if you talk to them long enough, they will mature before your eyes.

Simply put, Arizona’s Kurt Heyer has been unstoppable on the mound for the Wildcats. The freshman reportedly goes to practice early, plays pepper with himself and even sleeps with the game ball before pitching. Arizona thrives on momentum, so if Heyer gets off on the right foot, the Wildcats should be set to get a sweep in SoCal. If the Trojans hope to get a good start on Friday night, maybe they should hide the game ball from Heyer.

Arizona sweeps

NBA playoffs: Boston Celtics at Cleveland Cavaliers Ideal scenario for me: LeBron drops 60, but the Cavs lose. LeBron then gets a text from Chris Bosh that reads: “I have to get some new kicks.”LeBron, in a haze after such a deflating loss, misreads the text as “I have to play for the New York Knicks.” Upset with his team for being a bunch of hacks, LeBron makes up his mind to play in the Big Apple next year. Bosh then follows LeBron to the Garden. Boston 96, Cleveland 90

There are two terrible choices here: the Celtics team that paid off the Suns for potential Steve Nash replacement Rajon Rondo against the team with two centers (the Big Bench Warmer and Big Zydrunas) that move like giant Lord of the Ring Ents. Sorry, enough with the complaints. I’m calling the upset with the Celtics playing sharp and the Cavs still making LeBron carry the whole weight of Cleveland on his shoulders.

326-7812

SOFTBALL continued from page 7

The matchup between the Boston Celtics and the Cleveland Cavaliers features a matchup of great talent. But the competition between the teams has bled off the court. The stars of both teams have even made SportsCenter commercial appearances and the bigger story will be which team has the better nicknames. Personally, I pick King James. Cavaliers 89, Boston 78

Defensive consistency key to road play

The Golden Bears lead the Pac-10 with a 1.50 ERA. Pitcher Valerie Arioto has a 2.40 personal ERA but has done more damage at the plate. She’s the nation’s second-most walked batter and boasts a .356 batting average. Arioto is aided by speedy sophomore Jamia Reid , who is second in the NCAA in stolen bases. In the visiting dugout, the Wildcats are the highest scoring team in the nation, averaging eight

runs per game. But it won’t be the offense that catapults Arizona into the postseason and into the Women’s College World Series. “Offensively, I feel pretty good that we have balance throughout our line-ups,”Candrea said.“But on the other hand … it starts with pitching and you have to play good defense. “I don’t think we take enough pride in our defense as we do in our offensive side of our game.” And to keep their swagger from

the past two weeks’ home games — Arizona outscored Stanford and Oregon State 55-10 — the Wildcats will need to act like they have the Hillenbrand Stadium crowd behind them. “We just do the best we can to feel like we’re at home,” said senior shortstop K’Lee Arredondo. “I know me personally, if I hear the crowd cheering I just think they’re cheering for us. If you can kind of think that way then it kind of

gets you motivated.” Barring setbacks due to injury, the Wildcats feel that their potential is endless. However, reacting positively to setbacks on the road will be an important problem to overcome, especially after getting swept by a No. 1 Washington squad in Seattle. “The next three weeks are going to define who we are and how far we go,” Candrea said. “We’re in control of our own destiny.”

BASEBALL

Lopez nears milestone

continued from page 7

Arizona head coach Andy Lopez has built an impressive resume over his 27-year collegiate coaching career, and he is closing in on another milestone. Lopez needs just three wins to reach 1,000 total. Lopez said he usually doesn’t pay a lot of attention to statistics and that he was only recently made aware of the pending 1,000 win mark. “I hope it happens soon,” Lopez said. “I’d really like for it to happen soon, and then I can have some thoughts about it. But right now, I just really want to go out there and play good baseball.” With a sweep against USC, Lopez would reach the milestone in Los Angeles, where his coaching career began.

Triple threat: Duel in the Desert

Lighter workouts pay off

Arizona has a roster with 17 freshmen, meaning a lot of them are experiencing the grind of a college season versus a high school season for the first time. Lopez has recently changed the normal practice routine to keep his team fresh by cutting practices short, hoping to prevent injury and fatigue. “Having shorter practices, it does make you fresher and make your body more ready for the weekend,” Selsky said. “Injury-wise, and mentally too. It helps everything.”

Probable Starters Game 1: Kurt Heyer (6-0, 2.09 ERA) Game 2: Kyle Simon (6-3, 3.79) Game 3: Daniel Workman (2-0, 5.59)

The Arizona track and field team will be tested this weekend when it hosts ASU and NAU at the Roy P. Drachman Stadium on Saturday. The No. 59 Arizona men’s squad will take on the No. 4 Sun Devils and No. 38 Lumberjacks, while the No. 29 Arizona women’s team will face off against No. 66 ASU and unranked NAU. “I’m really hyped for this meet,” said junior LaTisha Holden, who will be running the 4x100-meter, the 100m hurdles and the 100m. “It’s our rivals coming to our home track,”she added.“When I think about the competition in the Pac-10, I don’t think about ASU as having anybody on their team that’s a big challenger.” The Wildcat women may have a leg up on the Sun Devils in the rankings, but no victory will come easily on Saturday. The most anticipated race of the day is the women’s 4x400m relay. The Sun Devils are ranked 24th in the event, while the Wildcats are 25th and within 0.12 seconds of ASU. “ASU is running the same times as us and for the past two weekends,” said redshirt sophomore Echos Blevins, who runs the second leg of the relay and will be running the 400m and the 200m. “If we’re not ahead of them, we should be neck and neck.” The meet will be a battle from start to finish, but Arizona athletes and coaches alike are confident that they can come out with a win. “Man, we’re ready. I keep telling them it is time,”said sprinting coach Francesca Green. “Every race we’ve had some little stumbles, but this week we can’t afford to do that. I want to go out there and beat ASU.” Blevins and Green aren’t the only ones who have confidence going into this meet. Sophomore distance runner Hannah Moen is ready to dominate the women’s steeplechase. “There’s not a lot of pressure. I’m running with (junior) Maggie (Callahan) and we should take first and second,” Moen Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily Wildcat said.“I don’t really worry about names, Arizona track and field sophomore Jordan Ronstadt leaps over a hurdle during the Jim Click Shootout in Tucson on April 3. The Wildcats will host ASU and NAU this Saturday. but Coach expects that we shouldn’t have any trouble.”
