Hanging in the balance between work and duty Between his roles as an assistant director for development in the athletics department and as a city council member, Steve Kozachik makes decisions guided by his morals BY EDDIE CELAYA @reporterEddie
Having two full-time jobs can be exhausting. Added responsibilities, additional commute, extra strain on family — all told, it can make pulling double duty nearly impossible. A normal person might be able to make it work for a while, but Steve Kozachik has made it work for nearly a decade. If the city’s August primary elections are any indicator, Kozachik should be on his way toward a decade of dual service as the Ward 6 Representative on Tucson’s City Council and an Associate Athletic Director at the University of Arizona, where he oversees facilities and capital projects. The rebel Since his election in 2009, Kozachik has been a mainstay in city politics. Although he identifies himself as liberal, his party allegiance has not always aligned with his politics. “One of the reasons I changed parties in 2013 was because the Republican Party in this state is going so far to the right that it just doesn’t reflect what I stand for anymore,” he said. “A lot of it had to do with gun legislation and social issues.” While the GOP’s platform on social issues gave Kozachik pause, the final push that led him to leave the party involved a City of Tucson-sponsored gun buy-back that he organized in 2012. Push-back to the event was “pretty intense and pretty immediate,” Kozachik said. “I’m not anti-gun,” he said. “I own a couple of guns. That is not what this was about. It was about if you have personal property, the police fully support the notion of, if people

don’t want guns, let’s get them out of circulation.” With the gun buy-back episode behind him, Kozachik finds his present focus split between his day job at the UA and moonlighting with the city. After going through a litany of meetings and committees each day, Kozachik likes to reflect. “I get home seven nights a week at 10 or 10:30 p.m.,” he said. “So, it’s two full-time jobs, and you can’t do either of them justice by treating either of them as part-time.” And the project that seems to be

Honor thy neighborhood association While living in Ward 6 for more than 20 years, Kozachik ingrained himself in the community. When he talks about his upcoming election race, he frames topics in terms of “Tucson values.” It’s little wonder then that Kozachik has taken a pro-city stance on the most pressing issue facing Ward 6: the proposed Honors College Complex.

The complex will sit on three square blocks at the intersection of Drachman Street and Fremont Avenue, right on the edge of the Ward 6 boundary. A private company, American Campus Communities, acquired several parcels and made a pitch to the neighborhood in hopes of constructing a 1,600 bed, privately run dormitory back in 2013. Diana Lett, a nearby homeowner and president of the Feldman’s Neighborhood Association, said neighborhood opposition to the project seemed to quash the idea.

“They got some pushback saying, ‘You know, this is too much, it’s not appropriate for the area,’” she said. But according to Kozachik, ACC changed its tactics after running into neighborhood resistance. “We find what they have done is they approached the UA and said, ‘We will give you our land, and we will build you our dorm on it,’” he said. The reason for ACC to transfer the land to the UA is to sidestep city zoning laws, Lett said. Under Arizona state law, a state entity like the UA is exempt from municipal zoning processes, allowing ACC to bypass Tucson regulation. If it weren’t for Kozachik, Lett might not have caught wind of the project. “He actually was the person who let me know what was happening, before the UA went public with it,” Lett said. For Koz, that’s just part of the job. “I’m never going to keep info from my consituents,” he said. For her part, Lett finds two problems with the complex: First, since the neighborhood is currently zoned as one- or two-story residential houses, she said the added density the project will bring is incompatible with the current make-up of the neighborhood. Second, in her view, the UA has sidestepped the neighboring communities in the process. “They decided they were not going to participate in our city’s rezoning process, our city’s citizen participation process,” she said. Paul Durham, a former corporate attorney and Democrat running to represent Ward 6 on the City Council, said he has heard both sides from neighborhood residents.

UA tech startuplaunches into the big leagues BY VICTOR GARCIA @VicGarcia96
In another success for Tech Launch Arizona, SinfoníaRx, a University of Arizona startup pharmaceutical company that helps patients nationwide, was recently acquired by New Jersey-based public health care company Tabula Rasa. Sinfonía’s CEO, Kevin Boesen, said the company was bought for $35 million in cash and $10 million in stocks. Boesen will maintain full control of the company moving forward. “We are pretty well known in the market nationally and have a pretty good reputation,” Boesen said. “Tabula Rasa’s CEO and founder is a pharmacist as well, and he drew different pharmacy networks.” Boesen said part of the reason for the acquisition is due to overlap between the two companies in the pharmaceutical community. Boesen graduated from the UA in 2003 from the College of Pharmacy and proceeded to become a faculty member at the college, where he then became the adviser for the UA student chapter for the National Community Pharmacists Association. The NCPA focuses on driving students’ interest in entrepreneurship in the pharmaceutical industry around the country. This is where Boesen and his students developed the plan for Sinfonía. “In 2005, before we launched the company, I was working with those students in an innovative way to expand pharmacy services and promote patient care,” Boesen said. “We started operating from the university, and once we got a contract with one health plan, then another and more, we got to spin out from the university in 2013.” According to Boesen, the company guides patients with chronic conditions through their illnesses and advises their medications. “We have five call centers spread across the country now that will actually call the patients to help them manage their medications,” Boesen said. “We have a pharmacist that will call a patient and talk

to them about their chronic conditions, their medications, their doctors and make sure they understand everything that they are taking.” The company looks for patients who have multiple chronic conditions and a high risk of drug-related problems. According to Boesen, Sinfonía mines health care data from 300 health care services to find patients to work with, which comes to 50 million patients nationwide. Sinfonía grants internships and employment to students in the College of Pharmacy, exposing them to real-world situations working with patients and helping guide their personal care, said Stephanie Forbes, director of the college’s Medication Management Center. Forbes began working for Sinfonía as an intern in 2010 and graduated from the UA in 2012 before being hired by the company. According to Forbes, Sinfonía’s Tucson call center on Sixth Street and Stone Avenue, has about 240 employees, 85 interns and 50 undergrad student employees. “It’s been an incredible opportunity,” said Jared Tate, a senior pharmacy intern at Sinfonía. “It’s given me a chance to further my own pharmacy education while gaining unique experience interacting directly with patients.” The experience in Sinfonía is quite different compared to other opportunities available to pharmacy students since they get to apply clinical guidelines to various disease states in the patients they work with, he said. Tate plans to pursue residency training in a managed care setting after graduating from the UA. “Working with Sinfonía has taught me how pharmacy can positively impact a large number of patients across the nation in new and innovative ways,” he said. According to Forbes, the company trains employees and interns in a two-week process to teach them ways to ease into holding a conversation with the patients through the phone. “There are four pillars of Sinfonía,” Forbes said. “There is people, trust, communication and improvisation. The biggest challenge students face at first with Sinfonía’s work is the communication with its patients.” Sinfonía’s acquisition by Tabula Rasa is the next

step, Forbes said. Now that it is public, there are different opportunities and a network of people to build relationships with. Boesen said the company plans on creating an app to further assist patients. “Sinfonía is going in a positive direction,” Forbes said. “When it became part of Tech Launch Arizona, that allowed us to have growth.”

Humanities Festival explores Resistance & Revolution
W
hen humanities scholars look out across the globe and back through the pages of human history, we see in every culture crucial turning points when new ideas ALAIN-PHILIPPE DURAND take root and create ripples of change. In studying the human condition through the lens of language, literature and culture, we’ve often centered on these turning points to ask timeless questions and search for answers to what it means to be human. Individual examples of resistance often promote our shared values of creative expression, freedom of speech and equal rights. Dramatic shifts in human history tend to spring from small acts of resistance and revolution. Moments of principled defiance, quiet dissent and thundering discord create profound change: toppled governments, religious schisms and abrupt disruptions in the ways we live. What leads to those movements and those cultural breaking points? What comes after? What can the acts of resistance and revolution in the past reveal about the modern world? Join us for the 2017 Tucson Humanities Festival: Resistance & Revolution, a series of topical lectures, panel discussions and events,
including noteworthy guests, presented by the UA College of Humanities. The focus ultimately in these assessments of the past is on the grand challenges facing humanity today. We’ve expanded the festival this year, presenting 10 events from Oct. 3 to Nov. 7, and we invite the UA community, as well as the broader Tucson community. October is celebrated across the United States as National Arts and Humanities Month in recognition of the importance of culture in America. In cities like Chicago and Buffalo, humanities festivals this month explore topics including belief and environments, creating civic conversations on issues that have enduring resonance in our lives. In the UA’s College of Humanities, we’ve selected a theme that allows our faculty and guests to examine humanity’s ongoing struggle for dignity, equality and understanding. Students, can benefit from the perspectives offered in these presentations. Join us to explore some of the most famous acts of defiance and dissent in human history and the dramatic shifts that followed: the continued reverberation of Martin Luther’s Ninety-five Theses after 500 years and the resilience of early Christianity in the face of Roman oppression. Other lectures will examine conflicts that defined the 20th century: the Spanish Civil War
that served as a prelude to the forces unleashed in World War II and the divide between national liberation and meaningful freedom in African countries. Consider the struggles that are featured in contemporary headlines. Listen to modern poetry of resistance, and discuss the power of verse to change the world. See how the ongoing fight for freedom of expression and civil rights impacts modern politics and how the global activism of Pussy Riot founder Nadya Tolokonnikova contains lessons with relevance beyond national boundaries. Examine as well what the humanities mean in the 21st century. How is digital technology transforming the study of human cultures and languages? How can we experience different places and cultures from a distance? How can a foundation in the humanities make scientists better as they search for knowledge about the inner workings of the human body and the formation of the universe? Please join the College of Humanities for any of these engaging presentations and the conversations that follow. — Alain-Philippe Durand Dean, College of Humanities

Off-campus crime climb OPINION
BY CLAUDIA DRACE @DailyWildcat
L
iving on campus at the University of Arizona is a dream. The school is beautiful, the weather is fantastic and, most importantly, I feel safe. Once I step off campus the illusion of safety is shattered, as the city of Tucson does not offer the same sense of security. When I lived on campus last year, I always noticed that the areas around campus were not the greatest. The roads are subpar at best, the houses aren’t maintained and the store fronts are dismal. Despite the poor infrastructure, I never felt unsafe until my friends and myself all moved off campus this year. That seems to be the traditional pattern for UA students who don’t typically live on campus after their freshman year. After leaving campus, my friends and I started to realize how high the crime rates in Tucson actually are. One of my friends that lives in a house northwest of campus, in a student housing community, had his house broken into while he was at home sleeping during the day. The intruder hopped over their 7-foot, cinderblock fence and broke one of the bedroom windows facing the backyard. The trespasser didn’t steal anything, which we assume is because they realized

POLICE BEAT New center shares Buddhist knowledge BY JESSICA BLACKBURN @hotbread33
Wildcat flu A University of Arizona Police Department officer encountered a man vomiting into a trash can east of the Administration building at approximately 9 p.m. while patrolling the area on Sept. 8. A woman was with him, and when they saw police, they began walking away. The officer exited the vehicle and asked them to sit down on a bench. The woman told police the man was her boyfriend and that he was sick with food poisoning. However, the officer noticed that as the man walked to the bench he was unsteady on his feet. Police asked for his ID and he began to fumble around with his pants, eventually finding his pocket and taking out his wallet. He then flipped past his ID in his wallet and his girlfriend had to point out that he missed the ID. Once the man was identified, his girlfriend told police they were coming from date dash, but he was just sick with the “wildcat flu” going around campus. The man had bloodshot eyes, slurred speech and told police he was OK and wanted a tissue for his nose. The officer smelled alcohol on his breath and initiated a sobriety test but was unable to finish it due to the man suddenly becoming sick. Police requested EMS respond to evaluate the man, who admitted to having had five or six shots of alcohol. He vomited once more and was transported to Banner University Medical Center, where his condition improved. Police informed the man he’d be charged with minor in possession of alcohol. Fire extinguisher vandalism UAPD officers responded to Pueblo de la Cienega Residence Hall around 3 a.m. on Sept. 7 for the report of a fire alarm around 3 a.m. after a fire alarm on Sept. 7. Police walked past evacuated students, entered the building and saw smoke near the ceiling in a first-floor hallway. They approached the courtyard where they saw smoke hanging in the air. The alarm originated from the third floor. When officers reached the top of the stairs, they found a fire extinguisher sitting in front of a hallway door on the ground. There was a large amount of white powdery substance all over the floor, and upon further inspection, police concluded someone had discharged the fire extinguisher from a secondor third-floor balcony, setting off the fire alarm. Continuing the search, police found decorations and personal property littered all over the north hallway. According to police, it looked as if someone had walked through the hallway and ripped down items and information bulletins off the wall. There was additional damage on the southeast corner of the floor.

The College of Humanities recently debuted the new Center for Buddhist Studies. The CBS will focus on fostering research into Buddhism and its effects, both in the past and present. It will also provide a way to both encourage student research already being done on Buddhism and spread Buddhist ideas to students not yet involved, according to the center’s director, Dr. Jiang Wu. “We’re very grateful to have the full support of the College of Humanities,” he said. “This is a deliberate, calculated effort to move us forward, the entire college.” The center aims to change how the humanities are studied, making it a more collaborative field. “The traditional type of humanities studies ... is just about yourself ... reading books, writing books, publishing papers,” Wu said. “It’s very weird for a group of humanities scholars to advance themselves, set up a center, to create a program to disseminate knowledge.” The new center takes particular interest in aiding students involved in East Asian Studies. “We service degree programs, such as the Buddhist studies minor program, [and] we provide supervision for students,” Wu said. The CBS, which boasts a healthy community of graduate students, wants to develop a stronger undergraduate aspect as well. “For those interested in Buddhism, they can always find many interesting courses, lectures and activities offered by the center,” Nan Ouyang, a graduate assistant at the CBS

and a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of East Asian Studies wrote in an email. “For those not [knowledgeable about] Buddhism, the center will open a new window for … them to know better of the diversity of the world.” With study abroad opportunities available for students, most recently during the summer with trips to China and Bhutan, the center will invite guest speakers. It will also begin giving an annual Outstanding Student Award in Buddhist Studies, featuring a $1,500 prize. As a non-academic unit, the CBS employs a private funding model through the acquisition of grants. Currently, the center is focused on trying to secure an endowment of five to seven million dollars a year, a figure which Wu feels is highly sustainable.

“At a recent event, I ran into another neighbor of the project, and she said, ‘Oh it’s a great project,’” he said. Both Kozachik and Lett worry about the precedent such a move would set. “I didn’t buy my house on Campbell [Avenue] and Grant [Road] expecting a 1,500-bed student dorm to go in next to me,” Kozachik said, “or a
The Khyentse Foundation proved extremely generous in its contributions to CBS. The foundation already sponsored a Buddhist lecture series, as well as a future project in China for UA students. The center will also focus on employing modern technology to examine ancient ideas. “[CBS] offers new avenues for traditional research, including digital technologies. And because of the new Department of Applied humanities … it offers some rather unique opportunities for cross-fertilization of traditional approaches and contemporary ones,” said Dr. Albert Welter, head of the Department of East Asian Studies. The creation of the center comes at a time when Asian nations are among the biggest players on the global stage. China and Japan are

If pushed, Lett is leaving the door open for a lawsuit — just not from her. “I’ve thought about it, but the reality is, that’s really expensive,” she said. Instead, she said there could be a case for the city against the UA. “The argument is, if you’re using the land for any other purpose than academic purposes, then

Not only is the Center for Buddhist Studies new to the UA, but it’s also new for the American Southwest. Though a handful of major universities sport similar centers on their campuses, the UA’s center is the first of it’s kind in the region. Both Wu and Welter expressed excitement over the creation new center and its future. “We’re going to do something amazing, although it has not yet happened,” Wu said. “This is a study of religion. First you have to believe.”

After nearly a decade with the city and almost 30 years at the UA, perspective has a way of shading his perception for the better. “We’ll look at it and determine whether they have moved pieces around sufficiently so that we don’t have the basis to litigate,” he said, an option he would prefer to avoid. “And if we do, we do, and if we don’t, we don’t.”

Garage OF ARIZONA School of Journalism is awarding Dean Baquet, executive editor of the New York THE UNIVERSITY Times, with the Zenger Award on Oct. 20. Baquet has also been a reporter for the Times-Picayune in New Orleans and the Chicago Tribune.
Journalism School to recognize Times editor BY ANGELA MARTINEZ @anmartinez2120 South Stadium
Garage Every year, the University of Arizona School of Journalism awards a different journalist with the Zenger Award for Press Freedom and invites them to Tucson for a banquet. This year, they’ve chosen to invite New York Times Executive Editor Dean Baquet to the dinner in October with journalism staff, students and others in the journalism community. “We have given this award out to honor those for press freedom for about 50 years now,” said David Cuillier, director of the School of Journalism. “It’s so critical, especially now that we stand up for the right for people to have an independent press and media serving them.” The UA School of Journalism has given this award annually to deserving journalists since 1954. The award is in honor of a New York Weekly Journal editor in 1734, John Peter Zenger, credited for laying the groundwork of the First Amendment after he was incarcerated for libel by the British authorities, as well as his wife, Anna Catherine Zenger, who helped run the newspaper during his time in jail. “Press freedom is courage in journalism,” said Bill Schmidt, UA journalism professor. “There is so much skepticism about the role of the press that it’s important for us, as an institution and as a school of journalism, to celebrate those people and those organizations who represent and further what the role of the press ought to be in society.” Baquet has worked as an executive editor for the New York Times since 2014. Before ever working for the Times, Baquet was a reporter for the Times-Picayune in New Orleans and then the Chicago Tribune, where he covered politics and Opening Fall 2017
investigative topics. Later on, he was an editor for the Los Angeles Times and Washington bureau chief for the New York Times. Baquet has held several positions within the Times as metropolitan reporter, special projects editor, managing editor and national editor. Baquet was recognized for his investigative reporting in 1988, winning a Pulitzer Prize for his work covering the Chicago City Council. He was also a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize again in 1994. Cuillier, along with other faculty members, was part of the board who discussed potential winners of the award out of many nominees. Cuillier said a press freedom tracker, made by the Committee to Protect Journalists, has counted more than 70 attacks in the U.S. on journalists just since January. About 20 of those attacks have been physical. “These are important times in journalism,” Cuillier said. “It’s critical we honor people like Baquet who are working hard to hold the government accountable.” Schmidt met Baquet while running the New York Times office in Chicago when Baquet reported at the Chicago Tribune in the ‘80s. “He’s an amazing editor and journalist,” Schmidt said. Both Baquet and Schmidt worked together as a team in the mid-1990s, when Baquet was national editor at the Times and Schmidt deputy national editor. The two worked together on and off for about 35 years. “The New York Times is founded on the civic impulse that is at the heart of journalism,” Schmidt said. “It’s not a question of being for or against somebody or being the enemy. It is about being rigorously skeptical and doing whatever you can to inform the public debate and public issues. That has been at the heart of Dean Baquet and his career since the beginning.”

UA helps to digitize historic newspapers BY MELISSA VASQUEZ @DailyWildcat
The National Endowment for the Humanities awarded the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records a grant to further digitize Arizona’s historic newspapers on their already established database. They will be working with the University of Arizona Library this grant cycle and are planning to expand the titles of their collection, including some in Spanish. One notable newspaper already digitized is the Weekly Arizonian, which was first published in 1859. It was the first newspaper published in Arizona, according to Sativa Peterson, the news content program manager at the state archives. “These newspapers will present a different side of the story,” Peterson said. “They’ll tell from a different point of view and perspective perhaps that hasn’t been captured in the material already digitized.” The years included in the collection thus far are from about 1859–1922, which covers Arizona’s early history, including the transition from U.S. territory to state in February 1912. While the digital collection of newspapers contains many historical papers already, there are some historic Arizona newspapers not yet added. The state archives and the UA library wanted to digitize a more diverse array of newspapers now. Peterson said they want to “fill in the gaps” with early newspapers in the region that haven’t yet been digitized and include more Spanish newspapers. She knows of 25 newspapers published between 1859 to 1922.
OFF-CAMPUS CRIME FROM PAGE 4
my friend was home and made a quick exit. My friend called the Tucson Police Department immediately when he found out that someone broke in, which was sometime in the afternoon. TPD never responded to the scene of the crime. They only sent a community service officer, who didn’t arrive until the next day. My roommates and I thought that maybe all the crime happening around us was a fluke, until I did some research. An Arizona Daily Independent
THE NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR the Humanities awarded the Arizona State Library a grant to further digitize Arizona’s historic newspapers on their already established database. The move further solidifies the library as a major player in the archiving and digitization of print periodicals.
Other newspapers to be added to the digitized collection are border, Native American, African American and newspapers about Arizona’s World War II internment camps. “I think a lot of people have described newspapers as the rough draft of history,” Peterson said. “They reflected times of which they were created.” Without these digitization efforts, Peterson said information such as diverse accounts of history would be lost due to the brittleness and fragility
article published in 2015 labeled Tucson as Arizona’s most dangerous city. According to an Arizona Daily Star article from 2014, the Tucson metro area ranks No. 10 in the country for the highest property crime rate among metropolitan areas with at least 100,000 people. The year this article was published, there were 4,489 reported property crimes per 100,000 residents, while the average for metro areas was 2,730 per 100,000. MSN published an article on June 30, titled “50 worst cities to live in,” in which they ranked Tucson No. 28. One of the reasons was property crime.
of the material of historic newspapers. Laura Stone, the digital content director at the state archives, said the purpose of digitizing historic newspapers is to make them accessible to people today. “There are also a lot of people who are interested in all the newspapers,” Stone said. “We have people who come to our Rosenbaum Archive and History building every day to look at microfilm of newspapers. And by digitizing it, we make them available to people all over the world.”
Newspapers back then were not made with the idea that the contents in them will one day be history, she said, which is why there has to be an effort to digitize them in order to preserve the contents and history within. “Newspapers were not created to last forever,” Stone said. “They were printed on low-quality paper with low-quality ink, and they usually were considered something that got thrown away pretty quickly.” She also noted they look very
According to this piece, per 100,000 people, 6,643 property crimes occurred in 2015. The national statistic was 2,847. These numbers show that crime is not improving in Tucson, as the property crime rates rose in Tucson between 2014 and 2015. It also shows that in 2015 Tucson’s property crime rate was more than two times that of the national average. UA’s housing culture and lack of dorms does not help relieve the issue of property crimes as it concerns students. Many universities in the U.S. require students to live on campus for at least a year, sometimes two — and in some cases all four years.
For the sake of student safety, I think that the UA should create more on-campus housing options. Currently, the only apartmentstyle dorms available on campus are for graduate students. If there were on-campus options that offered the amenities of apartments to the entire student population, it would provide a safe and attractive alternative. At other universities, most students live in traditional dorms for a year or two, which have a communal or suite-style bathroom setup, community kitchens and room sharing. After their freshman or sophomore year they move into apartment-style dorms on campus, where residents have their own
different from newspapers today because they were “dense” and “textheavy,” without photographs. Some of the newspapers covered former Arizona Governor Richard McCormick when the state was a territory. McCormick, who was also a journalist, started two newspapers during his lifetime: the Arizona Miner and the Arizona Citizen. “He left Prescott and was pretty unpopular, and the competing newspaper made derisive comments about him,” Stone said. “You know, if you think we have yellow journalism today, you should read some of these things that people wrote about one another once upon a time.” According to Stone, those issues show the change newspapers have undergone in the 20th century. She also said it’s a different experience from how we receive our news nowadays, since so much of it is now online. “It’s interesting to read about people’s perspectives on society,” Stone said. “We got stories about women finally being able to drive and whether or not they should be able to drive at night by themselves, whether they should be able to drive across the desert by themselves. You learn a lot about where we come as a society by looking at these old papers.” The Arizona State Library Archives and Public Records first received a grant to digitize historic newspapers in 2008. About 380,000 pages were already digitized in previous grant cycles. They can be accessed on the Arizona Historical Digital Newspaper Program website and the Library of Congress’s Chronicling America website.
room with private bathrooms, a living room and kitchen. There are plenty of options for off-campus student housing, but it doesn’t ensure the same amount of safety as living on campus does. Tucson clearly needs reform in crime and policing, but it’s frankly irresponsible for the university to have limited oncampus housing options for students when the available offcampus housing options around the university are dangerous. — Claudia Drace recently moved off campus and misses the safety she felt when she lived on campus

Think you need them? Think again.
What Really “Boosts” Your Metabolism? Eat breakfast, eat smaller more frequent meals, drink green tea, eat spicy foods, take this pill, use this supplement. Heard any of these tips before? There are tons of methods and products that claim to boost metabolism and burn fat, but what’s real? Metabolism refers to all the processes that are continually occurring in your body that are necessary for life. One of its main functions is to convert what you eat and drink into energy. The biggest component of your metabolism is your basal metabolic rate (BMR). BMR is the energy your body uses to maintain functioning at rest and accounts for 60-70% of the calories you burn every day. Physical activity and the energy needed to digest and absorb food accounts for the other 30-40% of the calories you burn. So back to the question at hand. What really affects your metabolism? 1. Muscle mass: Muscle requires more energy to function than fat, so the more muscle tissue you carry the higher your metabolic rate. 2. Age: As we age our metabolism gets slower. This may be due to agerelated decreases in muscle mass.
3. Body Size: Larger people generally have higher metabolisms than smaller people because they have a greater surface area to maintain. 4. Climate and temperature: If the weather is very hot or cold or you have a fever your body has to work harder to maintain a normal temperature and this can increase metabolic rate. 5. Gender: Women are usually smaller than men and have more body fat, so women will typically have slower metabolisms. 6. Hormonal Status: Hormonal disorders such as hyper- and hypothyroidism can increase or decrease metabolic rate. As you can see, most of these factors are out of your control. Instead of turning to unproven, so-called fat-burning foods or supplements, focus on what you CAN control. The foundation for a well-tuned metabolism is a balanced diet filled with nutrient-rich foods and physical activity.

AT 12:52 P.M. EDT ON Sept. 22, the OSIRIS-REx spacecraft came within 10,711 miles of Antarctica, just south of Cape Horn, Chile, before following a route north over the Pacific Ocean.
Through OSIRIS-REx’s lens The OSIRIS-REx mission team releases images from the spacecraft’s Sept. 22 Earth fly-by BY OWEN ZERAMBO @dailywildcat
On the morning of Sept. 22, OSIRIS-REx — NASA’s asteroidhunting spacecraft — passed Earth just 10,711 miles over Antarctica. The craft continued northward, as it successfully completed the next major milestone of the project: the Earth gravity assist. A year ago, on Sept. 8, 2016, the “Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, Security-Regolith Explorer” (OSIRIS-REx) launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida and began the first leg of its journey toward a nearby, primitive asteroid named Bennu. Bennu is a smallish, dark asteroid selected primarily for its proximity to Earth, requiring only a small change in OSIRISREx’s velocity to reach it. Furthermore, Bennu is spinning slowly enough that the surface of the asteroid is still covered with dust, soil, broken rock and other materials. This surface is known as regolith, and collecting a sample of it is the primary objective of OSIRIS-REx. “The mission is a sample return mission,” said Dante Lauretta, principal investigator for the project. “We’re there to go get material from the surface of the asteroid and bring it back to the Earth for analysis.” However, to get to Bennu, OSIRIS-REx first needed some help from the Earth to perform a spacefaring maneuver known as an Earth gravity assist. “We decided to use nature to help us get to our destination,” said Heather Enos, deputy principal investigator for the project. “We used the Earth’s gravity to change the spacecraft’s orbital
plane by approximately six degrees in order to match [Bennu].” By flying so close to Earth, OSIRIS-REx used the gravitational field to be pulled toward the planet, where it “borrowed” a small amount of Earth’s orbital energy. This additional energy was used to increase OSIRIS-REx’s orbital inclination and sling it back into space for a rendezvous with Bennu. In layman’s terms, OSIRIS-REx used the Earth as a massive, gravitational slingshot. Besides readjusting the spacecraft’s trajectory, OSIRIS-REx’s team also used the close fly-by as an opportunity to test and calibrate their suite of on-board instruments using a “known target” — the Earth. By testing the cameras, altimeters and spectrometers on Earth, the team can straighten out any potential issues the craft might encounter when attempting to scan Bennu. As luck would have it, initial readings from the instruments are not only looking good, they’re exceeding expectation, according to Lauretta. “We have built a very capable vehicle,” Lauretta said. “It is doing everything we have designed it to do, and in fact, the performance of the science instruments is exceeding our expectations.” The trip to Bennu will take a little less than a year to complete, and in August 2018, Bennu will be close enough. The team will then use OSIRIS-REx’s imaging capabilities and an array of small rocket thrusters to guide the craft close enough to scan the surface of the asteroid and begin the extensive process of locating a suitable sample site. This process of choosing a site is scheduled to take almost two years, but in July 2020, OSIRIS-REx will move into position to collect the sample. However, the craft will never land on the asteroid; instead, it will float just centimeters above the surface.

Dante Lauretta, left, and Heather Enos, right, speak during the OSIRIS-REx flyby event on Sept. 26. “The performance of the science instruments are exceeding our expectations,” Lauretta said.
“We’re hovering, almost touching it,” said Sara Knutson, OSIRIS-REx’s science operations lead engineer. “We’ll gather the soil inside the sample collection capsule and quickly move away from the asteroid so that if there’s anything flying off that we might have kicked up, we are protected from it.” The team said they’re hoping to collect the sample on the first try, but OSIRIS-REx is equipped with enough reserve fuel to make three attempts. Once the sample is collected, it will be stowed in the Sample Return Capsule for the trip back to Earth. OSIRIS-REx will then linger for nearly a year, awaiting the correct window of departure from Bennu in March 2021. This will place OSIRIS-REx on a trajectory that is scheduled to intersect Earth’s orbit in Sept. 2023, where it will jettison the collected sample down to Earth to be retrieved by the science team. “There were many, many months and years that went into planning this event, and the team came together in a spectacular fashion,” Lauretta said. “Everything went off flawlessly, and the best days are still ahead of us.”

here are no bones about it; mining the precious minerals used in our electronics has had some pretty serious environmental impacts. Sure, some of these precious minerals end up in life-saving technology that changes the world, but others end up in products that seem simply to serve as a big middlefinger to nature. This week, we’re going to dive into the innovations only extravagant consumerism could produce.

1. The Vinci Touchscreen Headphones If you’ve ever felt the idea of using headphones was just missing that element of announcing to the world what you’re listening to, then these are for you! These over-ear headphones have a touchscreen built into the side so that you can … touch them, I guess? On the side of your head? I’m not quite sure why anyone would need a touchscreen on their headphones, especially when most of us are connecting our headphones to touchscreen devices from the start and our eyes face outward from our heads, not inward.
While these headphones are still in the works, you can pre-order them on Amazon for about $150. 2. The Hidrate Spark Living in Tucson, drinking enough water to stay hydrated can be difficult. When alarms and apps that remind you to drink water don’t quite cut it, we can look to the Hidrate Spark for salvation. This “smart” water bottle connects to your phone and keeps track of how much water you drink and glows as a reminder that it’s time to drink more water. It can even connect to your Fitbit or smartwatch. If you forget to charge it, don’t fret. Even when dead, it still functions as a plastic water bottle — that you for some reason bought for $50! 3. The Dog PC Yes, this is a personal computer for your dog. It feeds them, keeps an eye on them and plays with them. The Dog PC’s maker, Tesla (not to be confused with the electric car maker, you know, the one that makes things with actual uses), claims this product will “help your dog achieve their dreams.” I have no idea what these dreams would be, unless it’s to pee on something that costs $400. 4.

lost his sense of smell due to a head injury. While the Foodsniffer is a ridiculous product, I can actually see some merit in this one. It’s a device that connects to your phone and detects compounds associated with food spoilage. Unfortunately, it seems less marketed at the olfactory-impaired and more toward those lacking common sense. If you can drop $130 on a gadget to smell your food for you, you can probably afford to just throw away that moldy steak. 5. The Hair Coach If you yearn for the days of brick-shaped electronics made by Nokia, the Hair Coach is here to save the day. This smart hairbrush connects to your phone and collects all sorts of data about your hair, such as dryness and your hairbrushing acceleration. While this godsend isn’t yet available for purchase, Nokia speculates that it will hit shelves sometime in Fall 2017. 6. The Panomo Ball This product helps us achieve our dreams
of throwing around something that costs around $2,100. The Panomo ball is a 360-degree panoramic camera built into a ball. It’s literally made to be thrown, and while it soars through the air, it takes panoramic pictures. Now, if we could just get the Dog PC to throw it! 7. The Qwerky Writer Weighing in at three pounds, this allmetal wireless keyboard looks and functions just like a typewriter, except for the ink ribbon, of course. Available on Amazon for $300, the portable and not-at-all lightweight Qwerky Writer is the end-all solution for folks wanting to carry around a keyboard three times heavier than their tablet. These were only seven things, but I could go on. The technology market is so saturated with products like these that attempting to get to all of them is as useless as some of these devices. Some gadgets make our lives easier. These gadgets do that, too, I guess ... in some way … somehow. Feel free to call me if you figure out how exactly. — Brian Winkler is a transfer student from Pima Community College majoring in computer engineering

SPOOKY:
in baking competition
BY ZOE CROWDUS @DailyWildcat
University of Arizona alumna and pastry chef Jasmin Bell created some spooky sweet treats in the first episode of Food Network’s “Halloween Baking Championship”, which earned her a win in the first round of the competition. The ulitmate winner out of eight contestants will receive a $25,000 grand prize. After competing in “Chopped Desserts,” Bell is no stranger to competitions on Food Network but still said there is no way to prepare for these shows. “It’s like pastry boot camp,” she said in a phone interview. “You can’t prepare for it. It’s super fun, but at the same time, it’s so stressful.” One of the most challenging aspects of the competition is the time constraints. What Bell creates on the show in 90 minutes may take her five hours if she were doing it for a customer. Bell said she’s wanted to be a chef since she was five years old, but it wasn’t until high school that she knew she wanted to pursue her passion for pastries. “My entire life was dedicated to being a chef, even when I was at the University of Arizona,” she said. During her time at the UA, Bell worked full-time as a pastry chef at Canyon Ranch Tucson Resort while going to school fulltime, contributing to the Daily Wildcat and creating custom cake orders on the side. She graduated from the UA in 2011 with an undergraduate in fine arts with an emphasis in threedimensional sculpture. She has been sculpting cakes and pastries ever since. As an artist and a pastry chef, Bell said she’s working to create a style of baking that gives her work its own look. “You want your work to speak

Wanting to return to doing what she loved, she opened her own business, Bells Pastries.

winning the “Halloween Baking Championship” could give Bell an opportunity to open her own location for Bells Pastries. “I’m hoping to win it so I can possibly use it toward opening up a store of my own where I can teach my classes and do my custom orders,” she said. “But I would still continue doing collaborations with other businesses because it’s really nice to collaborate within your community.” You can watch Bell bake her way to the top in the third season of the “Halloween Baking Championship.” The second episode will air on Monday, Oct. 2 at 9 p.m.

BOOK REVIEW
Suspensful reading in Ruth Ware’s novels
BY MADELEINE ANGIULI @DailyWildcat
Suspense, mystery, shock and deception. These elements certainly help define English author Ruth Ware’s psychological crime/thriller novels. Her first two books, “In a Dark, Dark, Wood” and “The Woman in Cabin 10,” are bestsellers that have received praise from Entertainment Weekly and Marie Claire magazine. Both novels have also been featured on multiple publications’ reading lists, and I had to see what the hype was about. I found that Ware’s two novels are packed with suspense and entertainment, but they had their faults as well. “In a Dark, Dark Wood” is the story of a bachelorette party gone south. The story’s protagonist, Nora, is invited to a bachelorette weekend for a woman whom Nora hasn’t seen in 10 years. Nora wasn’t even invited to the actual wedding. When Nora decides to attend the bachelorette weekend, odd happenings begin to occur. By the end, the party goes very, very wrong. The cover of this novel suggests that “In a Dark, Dark Wood” is a horror story. I found the novel to be suspenseful and thrilling, but hardly scary. The preface is a Halloween-type short story that had nothing to do with the novel at all. It seemed like Ware wanted to write a horror story, but changed her mind halfway through. I would put this story in the crime/mystery category. This book is a page-turner. I finished it in a little over a day. The narrator held back a lot of information, so I was forced to keep reading to find out more. Unfortunately, the information held was more built up than it had to be. The narrator made it seem like the reasons behind Nora and the bride not speaking were more complicated than they actually were. This was the same case with the backstory behind the potential groom. Toward the end of the book, the bachelorette party shatters. Parts of the ending are shown throughout the book, and the scenes are seemingly horrific. When the reader finds out what happened, it is a bit of a letdown. There was some predictability, and the ending was too hyped up for what it actually was. “The Woman in Cabin 10” is not as suspenseful as “In a Dark, Dark Wood.” That being said, I wasn’t as disappointed by the ending. The end was far more shocking than “In a Dark, Dark Wood,” so Ware must’ve worked with her criticism. The novel revolves around Lo Blacklock, a journalist who embarks on a luxury cruise. The trip is set up for journalists to review and critique the cruise. Similar to “In a Dark, Dark Wood,” strange occurrences soon begin to happen. For this novel, I had little idea to the reasoning behind Lo’s cruise sabotage, which allowed for a bigger surprise
LEFT: Ruth Ware’s “The Woman in Cabin 10” RIGHT: Ruth Ware’s “In a Dark, Dark Wood”
in the end. “The Woman in Cabin 10” took me longer to read than “In a Dark, Dark Wood,” because I didn’t find it as suspenseful— until the ending. That being said, this short novel is still a quick read for individuals who become invested in the story. I would recommend Ware’s novels to anyone who loves psychological thrillers or mysteries. I personally am a fan of those genres, so I couldn’t help but appreciate these books. For those who grow easily annoyed with characters, these books are probably not the best to read. The main characters of both novels could seem both juvenile and negative. Readers who enjoy suspense should definitely purchase “In a Dark, Dark Wood,” but this novel isn’t satisfying for those who catch predictability — however,
they would certainly enjoy “The Woman in Cabin 10” for its elements of surprise. Some people enjoy watching movies over reading, so luckily “In a Dark, Dark Wood” will soon be hitting the big screen. Reese Witherspoon is set to take on developing the film. For individuals who prefer to read, I would recommend giving Ruth Ware’s books a try. See if their particular downfalls are bothersome or unnoticeable. Despite my critiques, I enjoyed reading these novels for an easy read. These books can feasibly be read by busy students with little time on their hands. Why not immerse yourself in a story?

Indoor cycling classes can provide health benefits BY MADELEINE ANGIULI @DailyWildcat
Indoor cycling has become quite the trend over the past few years. The hype began in 2006 when SoulCycle created its indoor cycling “cardio party.” The fitness movement recently grew to Tucson. The only boutique cycling
studio in Tucson, Revolve Cycling, has become increasingly popular among UA students and Tucson locals. According to Revolve’s website, owners Tony and Susie Stevens established a “space created by Tucsonans for Tucsonans.” But beyond its popularity, is cycling really beneficial? Or is the dark room and club lighting just a distraction?
Indoor cycling goes beyond riding a stationary bike. Laura Schwecherl wrote on the health blog Greatist that this workout was “more intense than riding a stationary bike” and it used “different body positions (i.e. standing versus sitting), pedal speed and resistance.” Some classes incorporated “upper-body workouts [or] resistant bands” as well,
Schwecherl wrote. Schwecherl wrote that indoor cycling “will amp up VO2 max (the rate oxygen is carried to the muscles)” and “will work your quads, hamstrings, glutes, calves and core.” Schwecherl also said indoor cycling is helpful in weight loss. A 2010 study by

researchers in the Department of Sports Science at the University of Palermo in Palermo, Italy, looked at “the effects of indoor cycling training in sedentary, overweight women” and concluded that indoor cycling “may be efficient for losing weight and preventing the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in young, overweight women.” Most people are unaware of the difference between Spinning and indoor cycling. Nicole Perry of healthy lifestyle blog Pumps and Iron wrote on her website that Spinning is a trademarked name and that it’s based on outdoor cycling, so spinners only do things on the stationary bike that they would do riding a bicycle outdoors. “So that fun, trendy class you just took where you’re dancing around on a bike, using hand weights, doing push ups on the handle bars and riding to the beat of the music?” Perry wrote on her website. “Not a Spinning class. That’s an indoor cycling class.” According to Perry, many things done in indoor cycling classes are prohibited in Spinning classes for safety or because it would not be done on an outdoor bicycle. Dr. Stephen Paul, assistant professor in the Department of Family and Community Medicine at UA’s College of Medicine, said there are both pros and cons regarding indoor cycling. “Indoor or outdoor, any cycling activity is a good activity, and most importantly any activity that gets us moving is good,” Paul said. “Specific to indoor, benefits include fewer opportunities for falls and accidents, [the] environment could be better controlled and, if membership is available, indoor cycling should be more
cost-effective.” The cons of indoor cycling relate to safety and overall enjoyment. “The bike fit is super important, so using someone else’s equipment may affect that, and poor bike fit can lead to injuries,” Paul said. “Boredom from lack of stimulation from nature and terrain and lack of socialization may adversely affect motivation to keep at it long enough to see gains.” Dana Santoro, assistant director of fitness and wellness at UA’s Campus Recreation, gave a similar response to Dr. Paul in regards to indoor cycling. “Cycling is an excellent form of lowimpact cardiovascular and strength training program,” Santoro said. “Although indoor cycling is a great alternative to outdoor cycling in terms of road safety and cost of equipment, you are limited on getting out into the environment.” For those who want to try indoor cycling for themselves, Revolve Cycling offers morning and night classes Monday through Thursday, morning and afternoon classes Fridays and Sundays and morning classes on Saturdays. The first class is $8, and the drop-in student rate is $13. Reserve a bike online at revolvetucson.com prior to taking a class. “Revolve is super upbeat and doesn’t even feel like you’re working out,” said Revolve cycler Torrey Freund, a junior majoring in economics. The Student Recreation Center also holds cycling opportunities. It offers cycling, Bike and Bodyweight and Rise n’ Ride. Bike and Bodyweight combines cycling and strength training using bodyweight, and Rise n’ Ride is an early morning class that focuses on high energy.

Alonso cookin’ up some leadership for ‘Cats Sophomore point guard Lucia Alonso is ready to lead the Wildcats into the 2017-2018 season BY IAN TISDALE @iantisdl
With only three players returning to the Wildcats’ roster for the 2017-2018 season, sophomore point guard Lucia Alonso is ready to take the helm of a developing women’s basketball team. “This year I have to be a leader,” Alonso said. “As a point guard, I know I have to run the plays, tell people to move and do this and that, and last year I didn’t do that as well.” Last season, Lucia was the lone freshman in the starting lineup, averaging 27 minutes a game and shooting 43 percent from beyond the arc — the second highest shooting percentage in school history. However, being from a completely different country presented its challenges for her both on and off the court. “It’s different in Europe,” said Alonso, who is from León, Spain. “It’s a lot more technical because we don’t run as fast or jump as high, so if there’s an open shot, you have to take it.” Lucia is familiar with European basketball; she started playing for the Spanish national team when she was 12 years old and has been on every roster since. “It’s special for me,” Alonso said. “No matter how long I have played, there is always so much pride when I play for the team.” Last summer she played as captain for the U19 squad at the FIBA Basketball World Cup in Italy, adding to a seven-year career in which she’s won two silver medals and one bronze in international play. “The teams I play for in the world championships are all my real close friends, so every time we play it’s a super fun experience,” Alonso said. Besides 5-on-5, Lucia has also represented Spain in events including 3-on-3 World Championships in 2016, where she won bronze, and the 2015 international three-point shooting competition, where she took home silver. “I love playing 3-on-3, you

only have ten minutes to play so you need to run. It’s really fast paced and energetic, and communication for me is always easier,” Alonso said. Lucia alludes to the tough language barrier she faced when coming to Arizona her freshman year. “I remember a play in the first game last year. Dezja (James) had the ball in the corner of the court and Malena (Washington) was wide open, but she didn’t see her. I didn’t know what to say, so I just screamed, ‘Dezja! Mira! Mira!’ in Spanish,” Alonso said, referencing the opening game
against Alcorn State. Learning a new language and playing a different style wasn’t the most difficult thing for Alonso last year. Like most freshman adjusting to college, being away from home for the first time was difficult. “The worst part for me last year was being homesick,” Alonso said. “When my parents left me after Christmas in January, the next two months were really tough. We started playing conference then played on Fridays and Sundays, and started traveling and everything. It was really hard. I always missed my family.”
Besides the people, Alonso misses the food from home the most. “My mom always cooks the best paella,” Alonso said. “She used to cook me food before games, and I miss that so much.” Alonso’s passion for food extends way beyond her mother’s cooking. She currently is majoring in nutritional science, and is curious about how food factors into biochemistry. “I think it’s really interesting studying how food affects my body,” Alonso said. “Being an athlete, it’s incredibly important that you eat well because you play
better and are more in shape, and the concept connects with my life so I want to see why that is.” The upcoming season will be big for Alonso; transitioning from a freshman foreign student to taking a leadership role on a Division I Pac-12 team poses as a challenge, but Alonso over the last year has proven that she is no stranger to change. “Moving here to Arizona, it’s not only about basketball, it’s about life," Alonso said. "I’m living here in a new country, everything is new, everything different, so every day for me is just a new challenge."

Flannigan-Fowles leads a young UA defense BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA
Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles said it was one of the defining times of his football career. Much like a safety leaving his feet to reach for an interception, FlanniganFowles’ future was up in the air his senior year of high school. Flannigan-Fowles, a two-way player in high school, transferred from Tucson High to Mountain View after his junior season. Due to the change in school districts, the Arizona Interscholastic Association (AIA) deemed the incoming senior ineligible for the upcoming season, forcing Flannigan-Fowles to miss his final year of high school football. It’s a story that has become known since the local product landed at the University of Arizona but three years later; it’s still a period of time that FlanniganFowles says he reflects on. “For [AIA] to take that away from me it was hurtful, but it also helped me grow, and become better as a man,” FlanniganFowles said. He did have one thing to look forward to that year, however: a scholarship from Arizona. The program stuck with Flannigan-Fowles while he sat out his senior year, and that decision has paid off. Entering his third year at Arizona, the 205 pound defensive back was rated as the Pac-12’s top playmaking safety according to Pro Football Focus, and Flannigan-Fowles has earned that status four games into the 2017 campaign. He has had a nose for the football so far, coming away with three interceptions and a fumble recovery. Flannigan-Fowles, who once started his career at Arizona as a defensive sub, is now arguably the UA’s best defender. The transformation didn’t happen overnight, and the safety has had a mentor to help get him to where he is today. Position coaches and players typically have close relationships on the field, but the relationship between Arizona safeties coach Jahmile Addae and FlanniganFowles is something that extends beyond the gridiron. Flannigan-Fowles says he refers to Addae as someone who has been the biggest influence on his football life outside of his family. “I don’t even have to go into the office and talk about just football,” FlanniganFowles said. “We can just talk about life … and I like that he has room to get away from football and talk about life with me.” Addae has only been a part of the Wildcats’ coaching staff for two years, but his bond with Flannigan-Fowles is evident. Perhaps it’s part of the reason why Flannigan-Fowles has been able to fully embrace Addae’s coaching and become the leader of a young Arizona defense. But even so, on the field Flannigan-Fowles
has played the part of a hungry defensive back looking to improve in every way possible. And no, that’s not just another cliche, according to Addae. “He’s got better in just about every aspect of his game every year,” Addae said. “I know that sounds probably cliche … but he’s one of those guys that works at it.” When it comes to techniques, Addae has been a stickler this year for talking about the football at practice and in the film room in order to get FlanniganFowles to make the ball his priority. “It is something we’ve been overemphasizing with him because he hasn’t been able to capitalize on those opportunities in the past,” Addae said. Addae attributes Flannigan-Fowles’s knack for finding the football this season to the junior’s hard work and instinctiveness. “He’s always on the Jugs, he’s catching balls, he’s doing his own footwork drills,” Addae said. “He’s doing a hell of a job out there.” One of the things FlanniganFowles has learned during the past two years is that any ball thrown in the air can be his. “When the ball is in the air, it is as much the receiver’s ball as it is yours,” Flannigan-Fowles said. “So I just try to go up and catch the ball.” To this day, FlanniganFowles still remembers his first interception. He was just a freshman in high school at the time, playing in a game at Santa Rita High during the 2011 season. Once he got his hands on the ball to make the interception, Flannigan-Fowles’ confidence soared. And with each game and interception at Arizona, he says that confidence continues to climb.

Notebook: Arizona implodes in loss to Utah BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA
The Arizona Wildcats had 107 more total yards of offense than the No. 23 Utah Utes, held them to only three fourth-quarter points and forced two turnovers on Sept. 22,. Typically, such a scenario would yield an Arizona win, but once you factor in five UA turnovers, two field goal attempts that were blocked and missed open receivers, those advantages are quickly diminished. The end result was a nauseating 3024 loss to the Utes, a game which the Wildcats could have, and probably should have, won. Even with a Star Wars promotional night preempting the action, the force was not with Arizona. Here are the biggest takeaways from the Wildcats performance: Turnovers, turnovers and more turnovers Quarterback Brandon Dawkins has been Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde through the first four games of the season, and against Utah he reared his ugly side again. Dawkins threw three interceptions, including one for a picksix in the third quarter and fumbled right after Arizona recovered an onside kick during the game’s final minutes. “He was doing good, but then he’d make a mistake,” said Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez. “He’s trying.” J.J. Taylor also blew a run. In the first quarter, it looked like Taylor was going to set up the Wildcats inside the Utah 10yard line but had the ball stripped from him, allowing the Utes to recover.

his right. The quarterback didn’t see Wood and instead fired it at a receiver near the sideline who failed to make the catch. Had Dawkins thrown to Wood, it would have been a surefire touchdown. “If a guy is running a pattern on a pass play, he’s one of the options,” Rodriguez said. “And sometimes you miss him. Most of the time you don’t.” Speaking of surefire touchdowns, Nick Wilson dropped a wide open pass on a wheel route in the fourth quarter. Instead of scoring six, the Wildcats had to attempt a field goal which ended up getting blocked.
Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda Trevor Wood could not have been more wide open. On a fourth down play in the third quarter from the Utah 25-yard line, the 6-foot-6 inch tight end snuck across the middle of the field with no one around him as Dawkins rolled to

The Positives Despite the grueling loss, Arizona had a few positive aspects it can take away from the game. The defensive performance was easily the highlight of the night. They held the Utes to just 5.2 yards per play, 2-10 on third down

conversions and 341 yards of total offense. Freshman linebacker Colin Schooler led the team with eight tackles while other freshman linebacker Tony Fields II led the team with one sack. The secondary also limited Utah’s best wide receiver, Darren Carrington, to only 76 yards receiving. A Week to Recover The UA will now head into its bye week and have extra time to fix its problems before traveling to Boulder, Colo. on Oct. 7 to take on the Buffaloes.

manager, and Munish Sood, chief executive of financial advisory company Princeton Capital — with undercover agents present — in order to secure funds to persuade top prospects into joining Dawkins’ financial team. Richardson, in total took in roughly $20,000, with $15,000 of it going to a prospect to secure their commitment, according to the documents. It is not known at this time whether the commit actually received the money. According to the Arizona Daily Star’s Bruce Pascoe, Richardson faces a maximum of 60 years in prison and/or a fine of $1.5 million. Yet another part of the story, the documents say, is Richardson’s insistence that he had a particular player in his corner. Richardson described the player, “Player-6”, as being sheltered, kept to himself and confided in Richardson. He stated that he would be able to push him in one direction or another in order to sign with Dawkins. “The picture painted by the charges brought today is not a pretty one,’’ said Joon H. Kim, acting United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. “Coaches at some of the nation’s top programs soliciting and accepting cash bribes. Managers and financial advisers circling blue-chip prospects like coyotes. And employees of one of the world’s largest sportswear companies secretly funneling cash to the families of high school recruits.” According to ESPN’s Darren Rovell, allegations stem from an “intricate web” of financial advisors, agents and coaches in AAU who conspired to get kids to go to a certain school. One of those targets was allegedly Brian Bowen, a Louisville commit, who is reported to have accepted near $100,000 to attend Louisville. Earlier in the year, after Bowen committed, Louisville men’s basketball head coach Rick Pitino ironically raved about not spending a dime in order to secure Bowen. Adidas was named as the worldwide sports brand in the document. There is a second Adidas school in addition to Louisville implicated in the allegations, however, they have not been named at this time. The scope of this investigation is not yet known, but many estimations describe this as the beginning of a widespread unraveling of corruption within college basketball. Jay Bilas, college basketball analyst, mentioned the ramifications for the individuals involved could be as severe as 20 years in prison, with no known consequence for the schools that employ them. Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott weighed in on the findings and subsequent action, if any, by the conference. “As Commissioner of the Pac-12 Conference, I am deeply troubled by the charges filed in federal court today against a number of individuals involved in college basketball, including assistant coaches employed by member institutions of our Conference,” Scott wrote. “Protection of student-athletes, and of the integrity of competition, is the Conference’s top priority. I have been in contact with the

leadership of both universities and it is clear they also take this matter very seriously. We are still learning the facts of this matter, but these allegations, if true, are profoundly upsetting to me. They strike at the heart of the integrity of our programs, and of the game that so many people love and play the right way.” Court documents also show Richardson provided benefits to a recruit who committed to Arizona in August of 2017. The amount was $15,000 in total and determined to be provided immediately. It has not been stated who the recruit is at this time, though the timing would seem to implicate 2018 recruit Jahvon Quinerly who committed to Arizona as one of the top point guards in the nation on Aug. 8; there has been no confirmation at this time. Court documents also state that a player currently on the roster received some type of benefits as well, though no player has been named. “The behavior that Richardson is accused of is completely unacceptable and does not reflect the principles of this athletics department,” according to a statement from Arizona Athletics. The consequences for Arizona could be serious. In 2013, the NCAA released a statement saying that head coaches are responsible for the activity that goes on within their programs. This suggests that the head coach of Arizona men’s basketball, Sean Miller, could ultimately be responsible for Richardson’s conduct. The ramifications for the basketball program and athletics as a whole are not known at this time. Self-imposed sanctions upon findings or a wait-and-see approach to feel out possible NCAA sanctions could be on the table, although it was implied by the U.S. Attorney that institutions were the victims in this case.

STEVEN SPOONER/THE DAILY WILDCAT
ARIZONA MIDFIELDER MORGAN MCGARRY winds up to take a shot against Florida Gulf Coast on Sept. 8.
McGarry bounces back BY ALEX MUNOZ @Alex_Munoz89
While on a recruiting trip in northern California, Arizona women’s head soccer coach Tony Amato chose to attend an event hosted by the Player Development Program where the top prospects in the area train and play with and against each other. “‘Who’s that?’” Amato said. Amato recalls asking about 5-foot-7 Morgan McGarry out of San Ramona Valley High School, in Danville, California. “I just asked a few coaches in that area… ‘She stands out, are my eyes correct?’” Amato said. “‘Oh yeah, she’s a good one.’ From that point on we started looking into recruiting her.” McGarry, a red-shirt sophomore, stood out to Amato as one of the better players among other top talent. While at San Ramona Valley, McGarry was named second-team AllConference as well as the Eastbay Player of the Week — both accomplishments coming in her junior year. Receiving offers from local schools in California, McGarry chose Arizona thanks in large part to what she describes as Amato’s “drive.” “He had just taken over the program when I got here,” McGarry said. “Just his drive and how he wanted to turn the program around is what really drew me in.” Unfortunately, all did not end well for what would be McGarry’s senior year of high school. McGarry tore her ACL while playing for her club team Mustang S.C. “I just remember running and hearing my knee pop,” McGarry said. Amato and his staff had made an offer to McGarry before her injury. If there was any silver lining to an unfortunate situation it was McGarry coming in as a freshman ready to contribute as much as she can despite her injury. McGarry wasn’t worried about the physical part of rehab; she was more concerned about the mental aspect.
“The physical part wasn’t a issue,” McGarry said. “Training and all that wasn’t the problem — it was more the mental part of it.” Amato echoed McGarry’s statement, pointing out how her teammates began to see the work Mcgarry put in last spring and praise her for it. “She committed herself... she was one of the most fit, one of the most agile in all our testing, one of the fastest,” Amato said. “She started to get patted on the back so she started to feel good.” McGarry played in four games her freshman year as a student-athlete, but the amount of playing time can help make a player feel less confident about themselves. Amato wasn’t worried so much, especially knowing McGarry was coming off her ACL tear, but more importantly, she was no different than any other young player going into their first year of college. “All the things we go through with our freshman, their confidence and their fitness level tie all those things together and her year looked like most freshman,” Amato said. To say McGarry has bounced back is an understatement; she is a large piece to what Amato and his staff like to do game in and game out. She has logged in 664 minutes so far, the fourth highest on the Wildcats. More important than her playing time — and something you won’t find on a stat sheet — is McGarry’s versatility. Opposing teams have taken notice of how well McGarry has played thus far. “We’ve had a lot of people comment. Other coaches we’ve played against have said ‘Your No.11 is big time,’” Amato said, following a victory over Texas Tech. “She can defend hard, she’s attacking out of the back, super fit... she’s doing a really good job.” McGarry’s confidence is at an all time high. “I don’t even think about the injury anymore,” McGarry said. “I want to be an influential part of this team. I want to be able to help our team out on the field.”
