Fire alarms disrupt campus UA swim accused of Red Bull theft UA catches Spring Fling fever By Jazmine Woodberry ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Fire alarms rang out in the Student Union Memorial Center’s UofA Bookstore, Chemistry building , Manuel T. Pacheco Integrated Learning Center and the UA Main Library. Testing of the fire alarms in the

bookstore occurred earlier in the afternoon but the range of alarms, commencing at 3:30 p.m., were not linked to the initial testing, according to Jesse Ortega, operations manager at the UofA Bookstore. Sgt. Juan Alvarez, public information officer for the University of Arizona Police Department , said a water surge due

to system malfunctioning caused the alarms to sound at several buildings around the area. Al Tarcola, assistant vice president of Facilities Management, confirmed this statement. “The fire alarms today were the result of a water pressure fluctuation in a Tucson water fire sprinkler line, which caused the alarm to go

off,” he said. There was no damage and virtually no consequence to the students or the UA, Tarcola added. Officer Linda Galindo, a Tucson Police Department spokeswoman , said there were no calls for service to the UA by the TPD around the time of the alarm, dismissing city involvement in the incident.

An alleged theft of hundreds of dollars’ worth of Red Bull occurred at the Auld Dubliner on University Boulevard last week, with members of the UA Swim and Dive team being implicated in the incident. Surveillance video caught two young men removing full cases of Sugar Free Red Bull from an unlocked back room of the pub and taking them out a side door. The video also caught the men placing cans of the energy drink into their pants and delivering them to patrons in the front of the bar at around 9:45 p.m. on March 31. The amount of merchandise lost totals around $288, according to Kevin Gilliam, manager of the Auld Dubliner. The men in the video were unofficially identified by bar employees and a Daily Wildcat sports reporter as current swim and dive redshirt sophomore Cory Chitwood, 21, and former swim and dive team member Darren Maxwell, 23. Other members of the swim and dive team were with the men between 8:45 and 9:30 p.m. the night of the incident, according to Gilliam. Gilliam was hesitant to confirm or deny names of people involved, but noted that staff members roughly identified many of RED BULL, page 7

The grounds of Spring Fling at Rillito Downs await the crowds expected to attend when it opens today through Sunday. The event, which is the largest student-run carnival in the country, serves as a fundraiser for ASUA and campus clubs.

Campus clubs rely on largest student-run carnival for fundraising By Luke Money ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Ladies and gentlemen, step right up, it’s time for Spring Fling. Spring Fling, the nation’s largest student-run carnival, according to the event’s Web site, will be held tomorrow until April 11 at Rillito Downs on First Avenue and River Road. The carnival is an Arizona Board of Regents event and serves as a

major fundraiser for UA clubs and associations. “This is a huge fundraiser,” said Lexy Keffeler, Spring Fling executive director. “A lot of clubs on campus rely on Spring Fling funding for their everyday practices. Plus it’s a lot of fun and a lot of clubs use it as an opportunity for their members to bond.” Keffeler, who has worked for Spring Fling in various capacities for the past four years, estimated that approximately

23,000 people were expected to attend the four-day event, with one-third of those expected to be UA students. “This year, we’ve really tried to gear it more towards UA students,” Keffeler said. “I don’t think a lot of students realize how big of a fundraiser this is for clubs on campus, and that’s important. We want clubs to make money.” Spring Fling operates on the power of volunteers, usually members of the clubs at the event. Some volunteers, though,

are involved for other reasons. “My roommate is involved with ASUA, so that’s how I found out about it,” said sociology senior Rachel Bushell. “It sounded like it could be fun, so I decided to help her out.” Bushell is a member of the street team, a collection of 16 UA students who go out into the community to spread the word about the event.

Dedicated employees recognized at ceremony By Brenna Goth ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The UA recognized employee milestones Wednesday at the Annual Service Awards Luncheon. The event honored employees who have worked at the UA for 10 or more years in the North Ballroom of the Student Union Memorial Center. “This is to recognize years of service for employees at the UA,” said Kathy Hawkes-Smith, director of University Events. More than 500 honorees attended the luncheon, which was not open to the

public. The employees were supported by the deans of their respective colleges, as well as President Robert Shelton and his staff. “This event demonstrates what it takes to make a great, world-class university,” Shelton said. The honorees were treated to lunch and live music before listening to a brief presentation given by Executive Vice President and Provost Meredith Hay. Employees were commended for their Gordon Bates/Arizona Daily Wildcat commitment to the university.

Fashion show funding up in air By Laura E. Donovan ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT The Associated Students of the University of Arizona senate spent almost 30 minutes Wednesday debating the clarity and price of a senate funds request for the Diamonds in the Sky fashion show, which is Sen. Stephen Wallace’s project. After much discussion, Wallace moved to table the senate funds request for the next meeting. Wallace said that the event has received $14,512 in donations in the past two months. He requested approximately $7,578. The senate voted five to four, with one abstention, to amend the amount of funds requested by Stephen Wallace to $6,958.74. In favor of amending the funds to a lower amount were Sens. Eduardo Atjian, Sarah Bratt, James Brooks, Katherine Weingartner and Ryan Ruiz. Sen. Daniel Wallace abstained from voting, while all the other senators were in favor of Wallace’s original request. “This is a very large amount of

Shuttle Discovery arrives at space station CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Space shuttle Discovery successfully docked at the International Space Station early Wednesday, its astronauts overcoming a rare antenna breakdown that knocked out radar tracking. Shuttle commander Alan Poindexter and his crew relied on other navigation devices to approach the orbiting outpost. “You guys are looking beautiful,” Japanese space station resident Soichi Noguchi radioed as the shuttle drew

within 660 feet, loaded down with supplies. The two spacecraft came together 215 miles above the Caribbean, precisely on time. It was only the second time that a shuttle had to dock with the space station without any radar; the first was 10 years ago. Poindexter trained for just such an event two weeks ago. As he closed in on the final 150 feet, he radioed, “It’s a lot of fun.”

Whitney Houston postpones more European tour dates

NEW YORK — Whitney Houston has again pushed back the European leg of her first tour in years on the advice of doctors who are encouraging her to take time to recover from a respiratory illness, according to a statement issued Wednesday. Houston had already postponed the European kickoff, originally scheduled for Tuesday in Paris, because of illness. A statement from a representative said doctors advised Houston to reschedule concerts Thursday and Friday in Manchester, England, and a Sunday performance in Glasgow, Scotland. Whitney Houston All dates are being rescheduled, and the 46-yearold singer’s tour is now supposed to start next Tuesday in Birmingham, England. “Doctors visited Whitney late last night in Paris and confirmed that she was suffering from an upper respiratory infection,” the statement read. “Upon medical advice Whitney has been advised that she cannot perform to allow her time to recover.” The statement noted she delayed the tour with “great disappointment.” Houston, one of pop’s all-time best-selling artists, had been on a hiatus from music as she battled drug addiction and ended a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown. But with her new CD, “I Look to You,” she returned on the top of the charts and declared herself healthy and free from substance abuse. The superstar has been on a world tour to promote the CD, which has sold more than 1 million copies in the United States alone. However, the tour has been troubled; performances in Australia and elsewhere were negatively received by some fans and critics, who complained Houston did not showcase the majestic voice she is known for. Video snippets of her performances showed Houston sweating and struggling to hit notes, leading some to wonder about her health. In February, her representative issued a statement denying any troubles, saying, “Whitney is in great health and having a terrific time on her tour and with her fans.” —The Associated Press

Dominick DeCarlo, a UA alumnus, has hypnotized his way to success. He is set to perform at the Desert Diamond Casino this Saturday. DeCarlo is the self-proclaimed creator of a new form of entertainment called HYPNOVIDEO, which uses hypnotized people to entertain an audience. The experiences of those entranced are portrayed on backdrops, with lighting, music and other special effects. DeCarlo selects 21 random audience members to come on stage, and on average, about 14 become hypnotized. The rest are allowed to return to their seats. If audience members become hypnotized, DeCarlo invites them onstage. “I take them to Antarctica and make them think they are freezing cold. I paint a picture of Antarctica on the stage, the whole stage goes blue, there’s a huge projection with snowcapped mountains and icebergs and penguins running around. There’s

Volunteers promote fair fun

Her roommate, interdisciplinary studies junior Deanna Mariner, is the event’s community relations director. This is her third year volunteering for Spring Fling. “I started my freshman year with my sorority (Alpha Phi Omega),” Mariner said. “I had a lot of fun so I decided to do it again.” Mariner, who was recently elected as an ASUA senator for the upcoming academic year, said she applied to be a director to help promote the event and increase participation. “My job is great,” Mariner said. “Though I’m not technically involved with the event itself, it’s great being able to go out into the community and speak to elementary schools and high schools and try to get more people to come.” More than 45 clubs, fraternities and sororities will be running food and game booths at Spring Fling. Keffeler estimates clubs will make

between $500 and $3,500 for their participation in the event. “It really depends on the club, what they’re offering and how much they get out there,”Keffeler said. Admission to the event is $5 for the general public, but free to UA students and faculty with a CatCard. Tickets for rides, food and games are not covered by admission, but there are several days with special promotions to lower the cost. On Thursday and Friday, attendees can purchase wristbands, which give them access to unlimited rides for the duration of the day. Wristbands are normally $20, but are only $15 with the donation of four canned food items. Wristbands are not offered Saturday or Sunday. ASUA is also providing a free shuttle running to and from Old Main all four days of the event. “I’m so shocked more people don’t

go,” said history sophomore Brittany Steinke, who is the assistant director of public relations for Spring Fling. “I mean, it’s a great first date idea, do the whole Ferris wheel thing, be romantic. It’s always a ton of fun.”

He graduated from the UA with a bachelor’s degree in media arts in 1992, with a chemistry and physics minor. DeCarlo said he completed the pre-med requirements and was on track for medical school. He was visiting family in Tucson when he got his first taste of hypnotism. He was asked to host a New Year’s show at a local bar. After the show, the hypnotist approached DeCarlo and asked him if he’d ever considered becoming a hypnotist. DeCarlo said he hadn’t. The hypnotist said he had great stage presence and gave him his card. Instead, DeCarlo studied with a female hypnotist for nine months. His first stop was Cancún, Mexico. “I was there for about three, four weeks, saw about 14 shows, started to learn the patterns and pacing … When we were leaving, the other hypnotist didn’t show up.” DeCarlo went onstage that

night in front of 3,000 people and performed hypnosis. After only four months, he was drawing in record crowds. “(They said) ‘We have never seen a show draw as many people as yours,’” DeCarlo said. DeCarlo does hypnosis mostly for entertainment, but has used it to heal people of certain afflictions. In certain cases he said he’s helped people stop smoking and overcome their fear of driving.

Tiger Woods TV ad features his late father The Associated Press NEW YORK — Nike aired a TV commercial Wednesday featuring Tiger Woods and the voice of his late father, an edgy move that calls out his personal problems on the eve of his return to competitive golf. Woods returns today at the Masters after taking a leave of absence late last year after revelations of infidelities and a stint in rehab. Woods’ late father, Earl, talks about taking responsibility for one’s actions. The Wall Street Journal said the ad will air on ESPN and the Golf Channel, two places ripe with possible buyers for Woods’ line of golf products that Nike makes. The advertisement, shot in black-andwhite, has Woods looking directly into the camera, while his father speaks in the background:“I want to find out what your thinking was; I want to find out what your feelings are. Did you learn anything,”Earl Woods says.

And Wieden and Kennedy — an ad agency that often works with Nike — referred calls to Nike. The sporting goods maker was one of a few sponsors to stick by Woods through the scandal that erupted late last year. Woods had been the sports world’s biggest moneymaker and was the first $1 billion earner. But he lost top endorsements from companies such as Accenture LLP and AT&T Inc. as the scandal unfolded. Other companies like Procter & Gamble Co.’s Gillette unit, didn’t drop him outright, although it stopped featuring him in advertisements. But companies more closely linked to his golf ability, such as Nike, memorabilia maker Upper Deck Co. and video game maker Electronic Arts Inc. stuck by him. Experts say it will be a year or more before any major new companies sign Woods. Even then, it will depend on whether he can return to his winning ways.

Bill Clinton vindicated 12 years too late H

ere are three fun activities for abstinent couples: 1. Go see a movie! 2. Play a board game! 3. Oral sex! Yes, you read correctly. “Oral sex” is no longer sex. Twelve years after Bill Clinton placed all his eggs in a bucket of semantics, his statement “I did not have sexual relations with that woman” is true, at least according to a recent University of Kentucky study. Titled “Sex Redefined: The Reclassification of Oral-Genital Contact,” the study by Jason D. Hans et al., asked 477 university students what behaviors constitute sex. Respondents were asked “Would you say you ‘had sex’ with someone if the most intimate behavior you engaged in was,” for 11 different “behaviors,” ranging from “penile-vaginal intercourse” to “partner touches your breasts/nipples.” The study, conducted in 2007, replicated similar studies conducted in both 1991 and 1999-2000. While penile-vaginal Dan Sotelo intercourse was Columnist consistently classified as sex by 98 percent of respondents, the percentage of respondents who considered oral-genital contact to be sex dropped from approximately 40 percent to 20 percent from the previous studies to the most current. The authors concede the study is “partially anecdotal” and limited in generalizability, but the study abstract describes the social benefit of studying what constitutes sex. The concepts of “sex” and “virginity” are widely known and taken seriously, but few can define them with clear definition. The authors reference the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal as a case in which the ambiguous definition of “sex” held vast ramifications for the United States and the world as a whole. Although he was not removed from office, Clinton was fined $90,000 and his Arkansas law license was suspended for five years for his “intentionally false” statements regarding sexual relations with Lewinsky. The authors propose that Bill Clinton’s declaration that oral sex is not sexual intercourse, while deemed perjury 12 years ago, is being recognized as valid by university-level students. This potential realization has been coined the “Clinton-Lewinsky Effect.” The authors point to the fact that, unlike previous studies, the respondents of the most recent study were adolescents after the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal. They represent a small portion of emerging young adults, who may reflect changing attitudes for younger students and teenagers. The implications for this study extend far beyond past scandals to the future of sex education. Abstinence-only education stresses the importance of waiting until marriage to have sex. Unfortunately, countless studies have shown abstinence-only education to be woefully inept at controlling the urges and temptations of young adults and teenagers. As they are taught, abstinence-only programs offer few “moral” outlets that only increase sexual frustration. If these were to adopt this experimental partition between oral-genital contact and sex, young people could engage in a consensual act without fearing moral condemnation. The changing attitudes regarding oral-genital contact are critical to incorporate in any sexual education programs, whether abstinence-only or comprehensive. Oral-genital contact is often perceived as “messing around” instead of sex, which lowers the inhibitions of young people. The authors of the study conclude that the shifting attitude could leave participants less mindful of the potential health risks of this activity. Sex education programs should seek to truthfully distinguish between oral-gential contact and sex, but also stress the similar risks associated with “messing around” and how to minimize those risks. The changing attitudes toward oral sex may reflect the increasing sexuality of American culture, leaving Americans more open to liberal interpretations of sex and experimentation. Whether these results can be generalized, there is undoubtedly a need to study the matter further. Defining the boundaries between “sex,”“messing around” and other physical acts will be a daunting but critical task for both sex education and legal defenses. — Dan Sotelo is a political science senior.

On ‘How Microsoft will drop the ball on Project Natal,’ April 7 I can agree with the article on some levels, however, Microsoft has already revealed Activision, Bethesda, Capcom, Konami, Namco Bandai, Square Enix, THQ, Rare, Lionhead, Epic games are just a few of the “hardcore” quality developers developing for Natal. Whilst the ips have not been announced the *majority* of those developers/publishers are known for releasing good games consistently. I would also argue that by having these press conferences much earlier than Sony, Microsoft has got such a large hype train behind Natal, due to its praise by the media, that any mistakes made by Microsoft would have to be huge for consumer interest to swing in favor of “move.” — Wh1teburn Can not agree more. Sony at the moment is claming that their Move is something new, as they said no to technology similar to Natal, because they wanted to do something new, which is copying Nintendo’s ideas, and now they are mocking MS and N with their ads and comments like that about Natal technology, etc. Microsoft approach is so not US that it’s suprising, they are just showing same old demo to all — everywhere when they are showing Natal, keeping all the good stuff for world premiere, I think that what they will show to us at E3 this year will be amazing (I hope so). They have got a lot of money and they have got support from first and third party development. UbiSoft THQ Sega etc. And a lot of casual games can make a lot of people buy Natal, MS can release some add-ons to Natal —“light sabers” wheels etc. Or maybe as it was shown on E3 last year, you could use your own gear? It would allow you to hold something in your hands and can attract core gamers as well, a lot of games will offer some kind of hybrid — imagine next Star Wars games, where you playing with XO controller but all saber fights are played with Natal. Device have got huge potential … — Pasterpl Eyetoy has been around for a while. Long before the Wii or Natal. It had fun inovative games on the PS2 and nobody cared. There are Natal like games on the PS3 right now and still no one cares. Why would anyone suddenly want this type of gameplay just because it’s from MS and XBOX 360?

Although this article makes valid points, instead of being about the technology it just turns into yet ANOTHER rant against Microsoft. I see the problem with Microsoft’s business practices especially being their lack of any real advertising of Project Natal (it did appear on a Smallville episode recently, but that’s pretty much it). But instead of ranting / railing against the company that is behind the technology as a gamer supposedly reviewing the technology, just review the technology! Your declaring a product a failure before it even comes out to market because you have a personal issue with Microsoft’s business practice. That’s just plain STUPID!! — Mike You really have no clue as to what you are talking about, and have no business writing this gaming news article or any article for that matter. Natal needs great titles from Activision, Capcom, Konami, Bandai, Square and Epic. They also need simple games for non-hardcore gamers like Wii done with sport titles. According to their press releases so far, Microsoft has already done all that. The only issue that could interrupt Natal’s success is the delay in response if their camera or hardware failure. Microsoft is already working to improve the delay issue. That leaves hardware failure as the only factor to address. They are already dealing with a reputation problem after the past and ongoing ring of death with the 360 console. Sony was smart using less technology with their motion wond. There are less parts to their system that could fail. Sony’s hardware is far more stable and there will be less problems reported from their motion technology. However, Sony’s PS3 is still the most expensive to program for. Since it is harder to program for, many developers will lean toward 360 for their motion titles. Since Microsoft has the most marketing cash, developers will find it more attractive to strike exclusive deals with Microsoft’s Natal. If Microsoft continues this path, then they will outsell Sony by a tiny margin. Wii will fall into third place since they are no longer the only motion system on the market. However, the bottom line is: Sony will never quit like Sega done. The only way Microsoft can dominate the industry is if they integrate 360 and Windows. That will never happen, therefore Sony will always have a chance to get revenge in the future. — Qwerty

Complex issues of romantic comedies S

Why give Heigl, who was ranked 14th on the Maxim magazine Hot 100 of 2007 list, this type of role? Casting has surely become the most outward flaw of romantic comedies. Women everywhere praised the 2001“Bridget Jones’s Diary” for telling the story of a female character that is not a size zero with protruding hipbones. Bridget Jones, played by Renee Zellweger, is on the curvier side, has a beer belly and goes after sleazy guys. This romantic comedy speaks truer to what really happens in relationships. It would be far too negative to state that romantic comedies are unrealistic for trying to prove that women everywhere have their prince charming. Not all women want that, but if someone truly wants this type of relationship enough, they could create it with someone in time. Romantic comedies these days do not suffer simply for promoting Disney-movie romance. Most people would probably be much happier if they even had faith that this kind of bond can happen for everyone. Hollywood could even snap its audience back to reality by showing relationships that fail. Film directors would do everyone a favor, and make their romantic comedies less predictable and easier to relate to, by hiring more wholesome actresses to star in such films. — Laura E.

Hide the pot, flaunt the meth

A University of Arizona Police Department officer was on patrol near Speedway Boulevard and Park Avenue Saturday at 11 p.m. when he noticed a blue Chevy Suburban with an expired license plate. When the officer turned his lights on to pull the car over, the driver continued driving and stopped at a red light. After the light turned green, the car kept driving. The car eventually pulled over after the officer turned on his siren. The officer noticed the woman driving the car seemed to be very nervous and was smoking a cigarette. She told the officer her registration had not been renewed because her daughter was a partial owner and owed motor vehicle department fees. She said she did not know why it took her so long to pull the car over. While the officer waited on a records check to return for the woman, another UAPD officer said he saw a plastic baggie with a white substance in plain sight in the backseat. The officer took the baggie from the car to do a field test for narcotics on the white substance. When the officer asked the woman if she had ever been arrested before, she said she had prior arrests for drug possession and drug trafficking. The powder, weighing 2.3 grams, was methamphetamine. After the officer arrested the woman and took her from the car, he requested a Tucson Police Department K9 unit to further search the car. The K9 officer found 0.8 grams of marijuana in a green plastic container in the back of the car. Another officer also found a metal pipe with burnt marijuana residue on it. The woman was arrested for possession of a dangerous drug, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. She was transported and booked into Pima County Jail. Since no one could be contacted to pick up the car, it was towed. All of the drugs and paraphernalia were placed into property as evidence.

Drunk minor plays human Frogger

A UAPD officer was parked at the intersection of Sixth Street and Euclid Avenue on Saturday at 5:35 p.m. as students exited school buses returning from a pool party at Breakers Water Park in Marana. The officer saw a man trying to cross the street toward oncoming traffic. Cars had to stop and swerve to miss hitting the man. Once the man crossed the street the officer stopped him and noticed he had bloodshot, watery eyes and his breath smelled of alcohol. The man was wearing a green, 21+ wristband from the water park. He told the officer someone sold him the bracelet in a bathroom at the park for $5. The man admitted he was underage and had been drinking at the party hosted by Hottest College Parties, LLC. The man was cited and released for minor in possession in body. The green bracelet was submitted to UAPD property as evidence.

Sneaky stalker claims stolen identity

A woman filed a harassment claim at UAPD’s main station Saturday at 3 p.m. The woman told a UAPD officer of a problem she was having with her ex-boyfriend. She said she met the man four years ago in high school and they dated for about a year. In December, the woman said she ran into the man at the Student Recreation Center and they began to date again for a short time. During the time they dated, the woman told the officer they had sex one time and he videotaped it. The woman said she broke up with man and started seeing another man. After breaking up, the woman said she kept getting texts and calls from her ex-boyfriend. In February, the woman told the man she wanted him to stop contacting her and after that he began sending her “hundreds of messages,� following her on campus and hacking into her MySpace account. He had sent a message to her current boyfriend saying, “It isn’t easy to hack into MySpace.� The woman’s dad found a note on the windshield of his car that said he had sex with the woman and had proof of it and to call him if the dad had any questions. The woman told the officer she was scared of the man, she couldn’t go anywhere alone and that she had to change her phone number and delete her MySpace account. She said she did not want to participate in the prosecutorial process, but would consider getting an Order of Protection against the man. The officer called the man and told him not to have any contact with the woman and if he did he could be arrested. The man said he understood, but added that he hadn’t contacted the woman in months and thought someone was using his identity to harass her. The woman gave the officer copies of some of the text messages and said that she would get more. She was given a copy of her victim’s rights and said she felt the phone call was effective, but if the behavior continued she would get an Order of Protection.

Night turns to day for disoriented dude

A UAPD officer was called to East Coast Subs at the intersection of Ninth Street and Park Avenue after an employee reported finding a man passed out next to the wall of the restaurant Saturday at 9:07 a.m. The employee told the officer he had seen the man smoking a “joint� and when he told the man to leave, he refused. He said he was waiting for a concert across the street at The Rock and thought it was Friday night. When the officer went to speak to the man, he tried to stand up but could not keep his balance. A partially smoked marijuana joint fell out of the man’s pocket when he went to sit down. The officer asked for identification, and when the man stood up to take out his wallet, he almost fell over. He then sat on the joint and would not move when the officer asked him to. When the officer got a hold of the marijuana the man denied that it fell from his pocket and said he didn’t know what it was. The man was searched and the officer found a brown cigar and a silver flask in his pocket. A records check showed the man was 18. He was cited and released for possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and for being a minor in possession of alcohol.

the men in the suspected group as UA swim and dive members. Diana Rader, the bartender working the night of the incident, said several members of the team were at the bar. Rader said a man named Darren left a phone number for her. In response to a call from Gilliam, Maxwell left a message in response to the alleged theft. In the message, he said he came to the bar with “65 percent swimmers and 35 percent nonswimmers,” and although he recalled talk of Red Bull at a party, he is“sure no one from swim and dive was involved.” He also thanked Gilliam for“not calling Coach,” in reference to UA swim and dive head coach Frank Busch. Calls to Busch, Chitwood and Maxwell were not returned by press time. “As far as myself, no, I am just hearing about this secondhand,” said Blake Grimsley, sports information director for the UA men’s swim and dive team.

“Frank (Busch) talked to the team and they didn’t know anything about it or at least they didn’t let onto it.” Grimsley said he had no idea about the incident and noted it was“hard for (him) to say” any more about the situation. Interim athletics director Kathleen “Rocky” LaRose said, “I have no idea what (the reporter) is talking about.” Sgt. Juan Alvarez, public information officer for the University of Arizona Police Department, had no recollection of a call being placed to UAPD. Officer Linda Galindo, a Tucson Police Department spokeswoman, said an initial search showed no call from the pub that night, but a more thorough search would be able to definitively say whether there were any calls regarding the incident that night. Gilliam said he did not feel the need to press charges, but wanted the Red Bull “returned or paid for” so he can recover the losses.

“I would like to thank them for their talents, certainly their dedication, and for making the university what it is today,” said Edward Gomez, president of the Staff Advisory Council. Shelton noted his appreciation for these employees, who have remained optimistic through challenging times. “We know that you’re working long hours and making things happen in a time of great stress for all of us,”Shelton said.

The awards were given in five-year increments, starting at 10 years of service and continuing to 45 years. Hay read aloud the names of almost 130 people who have served 30 or more years. These employees were also able to get their picture taken with Shelton. Honorees were presented with gifts such as pens, etched glasses and desk caddies based on their years of service. The luncheon also featured a raffle for UA

sports tickets, UA merchandise and gift cards to the UofA Bookstore. Kathylynn Saboda, a bio-statistician at the Arizona Cancer Center, was recognized at the event for her 15 years of service. Saboda said the positive work environment is what has kept her at the university. “I’ve learned a lot while I’ve been here. It always feels like they’re willing to let you grow,”Saboda said.

Toyota official: ‘We need to come clean’ The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Five days before Toyota announced a massive recall, a U.S. public relations executive at the automaker warned colleagues in an internal e-mail: “We need to come clean” about accelerator problems, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday. “We are not protecting our customers by keeping this quiet,” wrote Irv Miller, group vice president for environment and public affairs. “The time to hide on this one is over.” The recently retired Miller wrote the e-mail on Jan. 16, 2010, as Toyota officials were on their way to Washington to discuss the problems with federal regulators. On Jan. 21, Toyota announced it would recall 2.3 million vehicles to address sticking pedals in six vehicle models. The e-mail reveals deep concerns within the company’s leadership that Toyota wasn’t dealing with the safety problems effectively and could damage the automaker’s sterling reputation for producing safe and reliable vehicles. The company had already announced a recall of more than 4 million vehicles in the U.S. in late September 2009 to replace gas pedals that could get stuck in floor mats and cause sudden acceleration. The documents show that Toyota’s European division, at the same time, told its distributors it was“identifying a production improvement and repair procedure to address complaints by customers in those countries of sticking accelerator pedals, sudden rpm increase and/or sudden vehicle acceleration”not caused by floor mats. “We better just hope that they can get NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) to work with us in coming

(up) with a workable solution that does not put us out of business,” Miller wrote. The e-mail was addressed to Katsuhiko Koganei, executive coordinator for corporate communications for Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. Inc. “I hate to break this to you but WE HAVE A tendency for MECHANICAL failure in accelerator pedals of a certain manufacturer on certain models,” Miller’s e-mail began, with several words in capital letters. In a memo earlier that day, Koganei wrote Mike Michels, vice president of external communications,“Now I talked with you on the phone, we should not mention about the mechanical failures of acc. pedal because we have not clarified the real cause of the sticking acc pedal formally, and the remedy for the matter has not been confirmed.” Koganei further wrote that Toyota executives were concerned that news of the mechanical failures “might raise another uneasiness of customers.” The subject line said the e-mail was in regard to a draft statement to respond to an ABC News story. Toyota, in a statement, said it“does not comment on internal company communications” and declined comment on Miller’s e-mail. But the automaker said:“We have publicly acknowledged on several occasions that the company did a poor job of communicating during the period preceding our recent recalls.” “We have subsequently taken a number of important steps to improve our communications with regulators and customers on safety-related matters to ensure that this does not happen again,”Toyota said, adding that it appointed a chief quality officer for North America and a greater role in the

region for making safety-related decisions. Miller, reached by phone at his home in Los Angeles, said he had no comment. His retirement was announced by Toyota on Dec. 16 and was effective Feb. 1. The Transportation Department has assessed a record $16.4 million fine on Toyota for failing to alert the U.S. government to the safety problems about the sticking accelerator pedals quickly enough. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said Tuesday that Toyota made a“huge mistake” by not disclosing the safety problems sooner. Concerns about sticking gas pedals and complaints from Toyota owners in the U.S. were rising at the end of 2009, according to documents obtained by the AP. Distributors throughout Europe and in Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Turkey and Israel received the technical information. In mid-January, Toyota held internal meetings “to discuss status of production changes and to prepare for meetings with NHTSA” on Jan. 19, according to the timeline. Two days later, Toyota announced it would recall 2.3 million vehicles to address the sticking pedals. The documents obtained by the AP were among 70,000 pages of papers turned over to government investigators. Toyota has recalled more than 6 million vehicles in the U.S. and a total of more than 8 million worldwide because of acceleration problems in multiple models and braking issues in the Prius hybrid. The Japanese automaker was still weighing its options Wednesday about whether to accept or contest the fine. It has also been named in 138 potential class-action lawsuits over falling vehicle values and nearly 100 personal injury and wrongful death cases in federal courts.

‘Diamonds’ event shoots for the ‘Sky’

money and I would encourage us to talk about this next week,” Sen. Daniel Wallace said.“You may be spending more than you’ll get back.” Sen. Tyler Quillin also expressed concern with the event’s budget issues. “As a student on a budget, you might want to look into the Dollar Store,” Quillin said. “If everyone is eating Chipotle or Jimmy John’s as planned, you won’t need china to eat on. The Dollar Store might be a cheaper avenue.” Sen. Brian Seastone, University of Arizona Police Department representative, was not in accordance with Quillin’s suggestion. “Because of the type of project this is, it’s not a Dollar Store kind of event,” Seastone said. “That’s not the way to go. It’s a classy event trying to raise $10,000. Sometimes you have to spend money to

make it back.” Sen. Hillary Davidson encouraged the senate to help with the event. “I urge you all to consider helping out with this, and maybe we can even incorporate the new senate-elects to get everyone involved,” Davidson said. Before the senate discussed the project, Stephen Wallace gave a presentation on Diamonds in the Sky, a project he has been working on in hopes of raising money for the Diamond Children’s Medical Center. Stephen Wallace would like to make this an annual event. “I have multiple people working on the committee, and I’m a firm believer that experiences can teach you a lot in life, and we have a lot of business people working with us to give (the volunteers) more experience in business,” Stephen Wallace said.

The event will take place on the rooftop of the Highland Garage and there will be four designers providing clothing for the fashion show. Executive director of Spring Fling Lexy Keffeler gave a presentation about her event, which begins Thursday. “It’s going to be a lot of fun, and it attracts a diverse group of people,” Keffeler said. Brooks moved to approve the consent agenda, which allocated $784.20 of the requested $6,527.64. Quillin discussed the Peer Mentorship bylaw. “We’re officially putting the program into ASUA bylaws, which is really exciting for me to have created a program that will hopefully live on for years to come. Thank you for your giggles, President (Chris) Nagata,” Quillin said.

Arizona sweeps UTEP at home

‘It beats practicing’

Fowler shows hitting promise Pitcher’s bat is Candrea’s element of surprise

Arizona softball players congratulate catcher Lini Koria after she blasted a three-run home run over the center field bleachers during a 10-0 victory over UTEP at Hillenbrand Stadium on Wednesday. The two-game sweep kept the Wildcats sharp going into a three-game series against No. 1 Washington.

Arizona tunes up for heavyweight match with sweep of UTEP By Kevin Zimmerman ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT With the sun in her eyes and one out in the game, a liner zipped past the ear of Arizona softball third baseman Brigette Del Ponte for a UTEP single. Immediately, Arizona’s team managers handed out sunglasses — the No. 2 Wildcats (32-4) wouldn’t miss many more opportunities on defense. But in a two-game sweep of the UTEP Miners (26-14) at Hillenbrand Stadium Wednesday, they did leave some opportunities at the plate. “I think one of the crucial things from here on out offensively is discipline at the plate,” said head coach Mike Candrea.“In games like this, I probably expect more good at-bats. We jumped on them … and then we gave away some at-bats the last two (innings).” In front of a crowd of 2,633, the Wildcats rolled in their doubleheader Wednesday, dropping the Miners 8-0 in Game 1, before capturing a 10-0 win in the second match-up that saw eight first-inning runs cross the plate for Arizona. It was a tune-up before a highly

anticipated weekend against the No. 1 Washington Huskies, and Arizona looked sharp. “We got some live at-bats tonight,” said shortstop K’Lee Arredondo. “At first I kind of felt like it’s bad to play the game tonight. (But) we’re not having to sit around for an entire week to see a live at-bat all week.”

Fowler shakes poor start in Game 1

Behind a nine-strikeout no-hitter by freshman ace Kenzie Fowler (21-2), the Wildcats run-ruled the Miners in Game 1, scoring half of the final 8-0 deficit in the first inning. But Arizona got off to a poor start as a fielding error allowed the Miners’ lead-off hitter, Kia Moore, to reach third base. After two outs, Fowler hit two consecutive batters to load the bases, but Arizona’s defense got the final out to keep the game scoreless. “It was a weird first inning,” Fowler said. “We kind of a got a little out of control. That kind of pumped us up a

Two Wildcats on softball 2010 POY 25 list Arizona softball junior Brittany Lastrapes and freshman Kenzie Fowler have landed on the 25-player finalist list for the 2010 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year award. Fowler, a pitcher, has posted a .86 ERA and a 20-2 record. Lastrapes, Arizona’s starting left fielder, has 50 hits and a teamleading .450 batting average on the season. She is a two-time All American. A list of 10 finalists will be announced on May 12 before three finalists are announced May 26. The award will be announced in Oklahoma City, Okla., at the opening of the NCAA 2010 Women’s College World Series. Fowler and Lastrapes are among the seven freshmen and seven juniors represented on the list, respectively. There are seven different NCAA Division I Conferences and 20 schools represented on the list. Eight of the 25 finalists are from the Pacific 10 Conference. Last year’s winner, Danielle Lawrie, is also on the list. — Nicole Dimtsios

reshman pitcher Kenzie Fowler has debuted another weapon of late — and it’s not a new pitch to her selection. Head coach Mike Candrea has thrown Fowler’s bat into the mix recently, shaking up Arizona’s batting order. She’s been dominating in the circle with a 21-2 record and 192 strikeouts to begin her freshman campaign, but adding her bat has given Candrea another option to his already-deep lineup. The numbers she is putting up already have her being mentioned among Wildcat greats like Taryne Mowatt, Alicia Hollowell and the face of Arizona softball — Jennie Finch. The comparisons to Finch have been there since before Fowler even stepped into Hillenbrand Stadium . With her ability to switch between a pitcher’s mindset and a hitter’s perspective, Fowler had many doing double-takes when they looked at the stat sheet. In high school, Fowler’s performances were good enough to make her a dual threat. At Canyon Del Oro High School , Fowler claimed the record for career hits, home runs in a game and RBIs in a single season. As a Wildcat, Fowler has given Arizona a true ace in all senses of the word. She’s also brought the most consistent pitching presence in the batters’ box since Finch left in 2002. “You just have to switch your focus,” Fowler said. “Once I’m in the dugout I’m a hitter, and once I’m done I’m a pitcher.

Catching UA prepares for up with ASU, Pac-10 field Kurt Heyer By Alex Williams ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

By Mike Schmitz ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT Arizona baseball freshman ace Kurt Heyer (4-0, 2.08 ERA) was blasted in the side of the head with a 110 mph line drive during the Wildcats’ 7-2 loss to California last Thursday. The Arizona Daily Wildcat caught up with Heyer to Kurt Heyer discuss one of the scariest plays in baseball. Daily Wildcat: Could you just walk through the at-bat? Kurt Heyer: Well we were winning 1-0, I think their first baseman came up to the plate. I fell behind in the count 2-0, threw one down the middle and I’m like HEYER, page 12

The Pacific 10 Conference Championships are looming, and the Arizona men’s golf team knows it could make or break the season. The Wildcats will be in familiar territory, as their last tournament, the ASU Thunderbird Invitational, was held at the same venue as the Pac-10 Championships — ASU’s Karsten Golf Course. All 10 of the conference’s teams took part in the ASU Invitational, but some teams may have a leg up on others. “I would say it’s more beneficial for the younger teams and freshmen,” said Rich Saferian, the lone senior in UA’s lineup.“It really an advantage to guys that haven’t played there before, but it helps nonetheless.” Junior Jonathan Khan, a regular in the Arizona lineup, had another take on the advantage of getting a sneak preview of the course. “We took a couple individuals to the tournament because in the conference tournament you play six people and count five scores, instead of five playing and four scores counting,” Khan said. “It allowed those extra guys to get a look at the course and get a preview of how they’ll approach things.”

Arizona has struggled to find balance from its fifth golfer this season, and adding a sixth golfer to the mix could prove to be disastrous for the Wildcats. “I think it’s going to be Trent (Redfern) playing in the fifth spot, and he’s played well when he’s gotten the chance,”Khan said. “Coming up with someone in the sixth spot will be big for us.” Depth isn’t the only issue for UA — finding consistency has proven to be its own monstrous challenge. “We’re just looking for whoever is going to be on the course performing,”said assistant coach Andy Barnes, who will be caddying for his brother Ricky at the Masters this weekend. “Everyone is ready to go, so it’s going to come down to their performance leading up to the tournament.” The epitome of the Wildcats’ struggle with consistency began earlier this year, when they followed their only victory of the season with a dead-last performance at the Southern Highlands Collegiate Championship, which boasted one of the most prolific tournament fields in collegiate golf. Arizona could be trying to play itself into the NCAA tournament, but right now it would appear to have a firm grasp on one of the 60 at-large spots, as it sits at No. 41 in the latest Golfweek/Sagarin rankings.

UA swim and dive proud of showing By Derek Lawrence ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

Two words summarize the feelings of the UA swim and dive team on its season: Not disappointed. On the surface, it seems like there could be a feeling of great disappointment. Coming off a disheartening season, the team had hopes of returning to the glory that it achieved in 2008 when it won the national championship. Throughout the dual meet season, it looked like both the men and women might just do that. The women were consistently a top-5 team all season. After a big home win over Texas, they looked primed to make a title run, but it wasn’t to be. The women’s team finished fourth at national championships in what ended up being the one of the closest finishes ever. The UA was only 23 points out of first and had a chance to win going into the final event. “I don’t think anyone on our team has the right to be disappointed, because I think everyone put it on the line,” said senior Annie Chandler, who won an individual national championship in the 100-yard breaststroke. “Nobody can be disappointed, it wasn’t like last year where we had a disqualification that cost us the title,” she added.“There really wasn’t anything that we can regret. Everybody fought hard.” The men found even more success, with an undefeated dual meet season that earned them the No. 1 ranking in the nation. The team captured big wins, including sweeps of Stanford and Cal in California. “I would say probably after we won the Stanford and Cal dual meets in California, having been down both times at the halfway point, I think that SWIM, page 16

SPORTS BRIEF

Tucson’s Deanna Graham exceeding expectations By Kevin Nadakal ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT There is a little extra roar in the crowd when Arizona gymnastics sophomore Deanna Graham is introduced at a meet. Graham is the only athlete on the roster from Tucson, and she has represented her hometown well in her first two years as a Wildcat. She has grown into an all-around performer for the Gymcats, which wasn’t anticipated. “I didn’t expect her to grow into the all-around role so quickly,”said UA head coach Bill Ryden.“I knew that she would be a threat nationally on vault and floor, I have always known that. She was a two-time junior national champion on vault.” Ryden is referencing Graham’s time at Springs Gymnastics, where she placed first on vault in 2007 and 2008 at nationals and second on floor at the

2007 nationals. “She has really grown. She has grown into a career maybe a little more than I have envisioned,”Ryden said. Ryden has high expectations for Graham heading into the off-season, and believes that she will continue to grow as an athlete. “If she increases the value of her bar routine she will be dangerous, there won’t be a weakness,”Ryden said.“She can be something special when this is all said and done.”

and having the opportunity of being coached by college-level coaches. I didn’t really know what I expected when I came here, but I knew that I hadn’t reached my potential yet, and I was excited to see what that could be.

On whether she thought she would progress so quickly: I knew when I came here I hadn’t reached my potential. I was really excited just coming here and learning more skills

On what it’s like to have the hometown support: It’s really awesome being able to compete in front of everyone I grew up with. It’s fun seeing all the little girls that I worked out with, coming and supporting the Gymcats, because I remember being one of them. Looking out onto the floor and just dreaming that one day I can be out there … it’s really cool seeing that dream in those girls’ eyes too.

On why she chose to come to Arizona: I grew up in Tucson and I grew up watching the Gymcats compete. When I was looking at colleges, I did look other places. I actually didn’t go on any visits because I signed pretty early. I did meet with other coaches and stuff, and I just felt like this is where I should be and this is where my heart was.

On what she needs to improve in the off-season: Bars, that’s my weakest event right now. I will work on a release move on bars. Hopefully that will be the last piece to the puzzle and I’m excited to start working on that.

Summer plans for UA V-ball members Steve Walker, an associate coach for Arizona volleyball, has been selected to coach at the 2010 USA Volleyball High Performance Championships in Wisconsin Dells, Wis., this summer. Walker is one of five assistant coaches that will join Saint Louis University’s Anne Kordes, who will serve as the head coach of the U.S. Girls’ Select A1 National Team. “I’m looking forward to another great experience with the team at the High Performance Steve Walker Championships later this summer,” Walker said in a press release. “It’s an honor to be in the USA Volleyball coaching pipeline and I’m delighted to be invited as part of their High Performance program this summer.” Walker has had two coaching terms at Arizona. This fall will be his third straight season as an associate coach under head coach Dave Rubio. He also served as an assistant for the Wildcats from 2003-05.

Two Wildcats named to U.S. Women’s A2 National Team

Arizona’s Whitney Dosty and Paige Weber were two of 24 players selected to the U.S. A2 National Program for 2010. Weber, a junior from Indianapolis, Ind., was the Wildcats’ captain in 2009, as she led Arizona with a 10.75 assistper-set ratio, while posting 2.09 digs and 0.45 blocks per set. She was also part of the 2009 A2 Program and is one of four setters on the roster. Dosty, a Tucson native, was selected to the squad as one of 10 outside hitters, after averaging 3.02 kills-per-set, 1.46 digs and 0.56 blocks last season. The program will begin training on May 24 in Tempe in preparation for the Open division of the 2010 USA Open National Championships in Phoenix. — Arizona Daily Wildcat

Nelson becomes NBA’s winningest coach

11

By Phil Miller STAR TRIBUNE — MCT MINNEAPOLIS — It’s not the 1,333 wins that make Don Nelson most proud, or his reputation for innovation or his amazing longevity in a profession known for quick hooks. No, what gives the Golden State Warriors’ coach — who by beating the Minnesota Timberwolves, 116-107, on Wednesday night became the winningest coach in NBA history — the most joy is training young coaches and watching them succeed on their own. George Karl. Rick Majerus. Wolves assistant Dave Wohl. And Katie Nagel. “I was always kind of immersed in basketball because of him,” said Nagel, a Minnetonka, Minn., resident and former junior-high school coach who was in Target Center with 20 other family members Wednesday to watch Nelson — her father — walk into the NBA record books. “I grew up going to his camps every summer. You learn a lot of basketball.” Dozens of coaches can say they learned a lot of basketball from Nelson, and a bunch of basketball players, too, in his 31 seasons. Players such as Anthony Tolliver, plucked from the D League in January, who torched the Wolves for a careerhigh 34 points Wednesday and delivered victory No. 1,333 — one more than Lenny Wilkens, whom Nelson called “an idol of mine for a long time.” “He allows players to do what they can do. He puts them in situations to succeed,” said Tolliver, one of five D League players summoned to the injury-ravaged Warriors this year. “He gives us so much freedom, but if you cross that boundary, he’ll bite you.” Nelson never had to bite on Wednesday, as the Warriors blitzed Minnesota’s defense for 99 points in the first three quarters, built a 27-point lead, then held on as the Wolves scratched their way back, once cutting the lead to four points. All five Minnesota starters scored 16 or more points, led by Kevin Love’s 17 points and 18 rebounds, but the Wolves lost for the 25th time in 27 games. “I’m glad we won it this way. We won it the way Coach taught us,” center Ronny Turiaf said. “It’s better when we have to stretch ourselves and work for it.” The 69-year-old coach certainly worked for it late in the game, shouting instructions to his players, counting down the shot clock and badgering the referees on behalf of his players. “It makes me awful proud. … It didn’t always run perfectly, but they’re very competitive,”Nelson said of his Warriors, who have won just 24 games this season, including all three against Minnesota. “I told the team that I loved them dearly, and they

Golden State Warriors coach Don Nelson celebrates with his players following a 116-107 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Target Center in Minneapolis, Minn., on Wednesday. With the win, Nelson passed Lenny Wilkens to set an NBA record for career victories with 1,333.

were very special to me, but sometimes they don’t play like I want them to.” They did on this night, especially Tolliver and rookie Stephen Curry, who scored 27 points and added 14 assists, eight rebounds and seven steals. Once the final horn sounded, the Warriors mobbed their often-controversial coach, hugged him and did an impromptu victory dance. When they reached the locker room, the players doused their coach with soft drinks and cheered him again. “We didn’t have any champagne, so we mixed Sprite and Mountain Dew and water and sprayed it all over him,” Tolliver said. “He hasn’t had a championship yet, so that was kind of like his championship. We wanted to make it as special as possible.” They succeeded, Nelson said. “It’s such a neat

feeling — it’s probably why we end up coaching, for moments like this,” he said.“You have so much respect for the number because wins are so hard to get. We fight, we scrap and normally we don’t win, so you really appreciate how hard it is to win

games in the NBA.” His family does, too. As Nelson accepted congratulations on the court, Nagel and her two children held aloft a sign reading “Go Grampa Nellie — No. 1,333!”

UA ace wanted to stay in game despite head injury

‘alright, I’ve gotta battle my way back in the count.’ And then I threw one right down the middle again, and he just laced it and hit me in the head. Is it all kind of a blur? No I remember everything. I was actually surprised. I heard everybody around me saying my name, and I’m like, ‘Oh, I’ve got to get up. I don’t want to look like a weakling or anything.’ So I got back up, I was kind of dizzy at first and then I finally gathered up my thoughts. They let me throw a warm up pitch and I did. They didn’t want to take any risks so they kept me up. What were your thoughts when you first got up? I thought, ‘How the heck did that guy get to second base?’ Well the ball went past Raffy (Valenzuela) into right field. Everybody was yelling at me. I didn’t want to talk to anybody. I heard them but I just didn’t want to answer them. Coach was saying that you still wanted to stay in the game … I was amped because I didn’t want to freaking leave the game in that situation. There’s no way. I

wanted to keep going, but it’s early in the season, they didn’t want to make it worse. Was it frustrating for you? Yeah, that’s like the only way to get me out of there, unless you hit bomb after bomb against me (laughs). So you went to the hospital then right? Yeah I was in the hospital for like maybe three hours. They were just doing some tests, they did a CAT scan and everything. All they said was that it was a mild concussion. It was nothing too serious, all the muscles were just swollen up so nothing happened with the skull or anything. Then they released me and I was good. Have you ever had anything happen like that? No, no. I’ve gotten hit in the chest and in the hip, nothing in the head. That was a first. Is that going to be in the back of your mind at all? No, not at all. I’m just going to deal with it. It’s going to happen. Like our coach says, if it’s going to get you it’s going to get you, and it got me. I’m not going to change anything.

Candrea: Fowler to spark Arizona offense

stay real focused but I love it.” She’s hit in five of the last seven Arizona games and has proven that she can contribute from the plate. A grand slam in Game 3 of the Wildcats’ series at ASU gave Fowler her second home run in as many series. “I think inserting Kenzie into the lineup today was a nice little boost,” Candrea said after Game 3 of the series at ASU. “You have to be careful. There’s been staffs that I’ve had that I was three deep with pitchers so you can put a Finch out there every day and not worry about it.” In the nine games she’s hit in this season, Fowler has a .381 batting average. She has eight hits, six RBIs and a .714 slugging percentage. Not bad for a batter that is just starting to see some time at the plate. While her ability to contribute on the offensive side of the ball is impressive, Candrea has expressed concern that Fowler’s vulnerability might be taken advantage of. “But when you’re relying on one kid you’ve got to pick and choose it because the last thing you want is for her to get hurt running

the bases or for someone possibly taking a shot at her,” Candrea said. While his concerns are only for the benefit of Arizona’s situation in the circle, Fowler’s offensive numbers are becoming something that can’t be ignored. Candrea has said that he won’t use Fowler as an everyday hitter, but Fowler has the potential to be like Washington’s Danielle Lawrie and UTEP’s Stacie Townsend, both of whom play offense and defense. The boost that Fowler brings on the defensive side of the ball could transition to the other side of the plate and give Candrea an option to fill the few remaining holes in the bottom half of Arizona’s lineup. For now, however, Candrea said he will continue to use Fowler’s bat as an alwaysavailable wildcard. “I will kind of pick and choose when I use her,” Candrea said. “The nice thing … was that they had not seen her. It’s kind of the unknown.” — Nicole Dimtsios is a journalism sophomore. She can be reached at sports@wildcat.arizona.edu.

’Cats’ bats wear down UTEP, sweep at Hillenbrand

little bit and let us know they weren’t just going to lie down.” After a single and a head-first stolen base in Arizona’s first inning, center fielder Lauren Schutzler advanced to third thanks to an Arredondo single. The shortstop then stole second before Stacie Chambers singled to bring in the pair, scoring Arizona’s first two runs. Freshman Del Ponte followed in the five-slot to double the lead, scoring herself and Chambers before UTEP managed to get three outs. The hot bats continued in the second inning. Second baseman Kristen Arriola launched a home run inside the left field foul pole to put the Wildcats on top 5-0, causing the Miners to replace starting pitcher Stacie Townsend, who was 16th in the nation, with 10.3 strikeouts per game heading into the game, with Courtney Auger. Arriola has seemingly solidified her starting position at second base. Last season, the sophomore split starts with junior Victoria Kemp but after the two UTEP games, she had a ninegame hitting streak as a starter. “I think it’s just maturity in a way,” Arredondo said of Arriola’s success. “You know what pitches to expect, what pitches to lay off of. Once you start learning the college-level game, it just makes you a better hitter.” Meanwhile, UTEP’s Townsend gave up five runs, all earned, on five hits. Arizona only conjured up seven hits, but two Miner errors and six total walks by UTEP pitchers didn’t help the team’s defensive cause. Three walks in the fourth by Auger loaded the bases with one out. She got Arredondo to pop out but then walked Chambers to bring in Arriola from third and put the Arizona lead at six. Auger was replaced by senior Kelly Curran to clean up the two-out, basesloaded fourth inning. A passed ball on the first pitch resulted in a 7-0 Wildcat lead as left fielder Brittany Lastrapes touched home from third. Fowler reached first on a fielder’s error that also allowed yet another run to score, giving Arizona enough to run-rule the Miners.

Koria helps UA blast Miners 10-0 in Game 2

With two on base, Arredondo tapped a bunt to load the bases in the bottom of the first inning, all with no outs. Designated player Chambers knocked the single past the outstretched arms of UTEP second baseman Kelynn Frye to score Arizona’s first run. It wouldn’t be the last. Del Ponte, who had five RBIs in the two games, popped a hit to left field for her 53rd RBI of the year to score another for the Wildcats and a wild out at first advanced Chambers to tally a third run.

Arizona still wondering ‘what if?’

Arizona senior pitcher Sarah Akamine hurls a pitch during a 10-0 victory over UTEP Wednesday at Hillenbrand Stadium. Akamine pitched five innings, allowing only four hits while striking out six.

The most impressive play on the evening came on the first pitch thrown to catcher Lini Koria. The powerful sophomore boomed a home run over one of the deepest parts of the Hillenbrand facility, clearing the left center field stands to give Arizona six runs. “Besides the other ball she hit that hit the top of the clubhouse, I haven’t seen a ball (go) that far,” Arredondo said of the hit.

“I definitely think it’s important to get some of these girls who aren’t necessarily rolling right now to get going,” she added. Lastrapes nailed another homer to far left field to punch in two more, and Arizona surged to an 8-0 lead in the first inning. Del Ponte added her 15th homer of the season in the bottom of the second inning, giving Arizona a 10-0 lead. Arizona wouldn’t score again,

but held the Miners quiet. “We’ve had the confidence,” Candrea said afterward.“Definitely, you want to feel going off to Washington on a high rather than a low.” As soon as the Wildcats reached the final out, Candrea quickly shifted focus to Friday’s game at Washington. Said the head coach of the twogame, run-rule victories: “It beats practicing.”

is when our team really came together and realized how good we really were,” said senior Jean Basson. After the team dominated powerhouse Texas, it seemed that it would be tough for anyone to deny the UA another national championship. No one was able to take the team down until the Norovirus just a day before the nationals were to begin. Half of the 18 qualifying swimmers caught the illness and the team’s championship hopes seemed to be dashed, but the Wildcats persevered through and pulled off third place. That just days after nine swimmers were hospitalized the team could place so high was something to be excited about. “I was just proud of the whole team for just how we handled it,”said redshirt sophomore Cory Chitwood. “We never gave up, and each person just came back each day, each session stronger and ready to go, ready to race, so I was happy with it.” While the team was unable to win the national championship, it did have Chitwood and senior Clark Burckle win individual national championships. Despite the incredible performance from the men’s team, many of the swimmers couldn’t help but think what could have been. “I would say the low point is that we will never quite know how good we could have been at nationals if we hadn’t been sick,” Basson said. “I would say it was a great season with hardly any low points, but there is always that ‘what if.’” Considering the adversity the team faced at the end of the season, the men are holding their heads high about the way they battled through. “This year has been really special to me regardless of the final result,” said senior Jordan Smith. The end has now come for the largest and most decorated senior class in the program’s history. The seniors will leave with a national title from 2008 and many with individual titles and multiple All-American honors. “When I cooled down and took my goggles off, (head coach) Frank (Busch) did one of his speeches about how unique the insignia on the caps we wear is,” Chandler said. “He said how it stood for greatness. When I was putting the cap in my bag, it seemed weird that it was my last time ‘repping’ the Arizona cap.”

WHAT’S NEXT

FOR THE SENIOR CLASS Annie Chandler: “I’m going to swim

through the summer. They are picking some international teams, Pan-Pac and Pan-American game teams.” Jean Basson: “I’m going to stay here and train. I’ll be focusing on the Olympics in 2012 with a few small goals on the way.” Jordan Smith: “I want to keep swimming as long as I can. Probably go for the 2012 Olympic Trials and see how I do there. There is the US National meet this summer and they are selecting some teams there. So if I could get some international experience that would mean a lot. Basically I just want to keep swimming as long as I can, until it’s really responsible for me to do it.”
