The Social Planning and Events Committee announced today that “indie-pop darlings” Ra Ra Riot have been added to the Spr ing Fling lineup as the second opener on April 11. K nown for their songs “Beta Love,” “I Shut Off” and “Boy,” the group is associated with a signature “indie-band with orchestral strings” sound, although their most recent album, “Beta Love” marked a shift toward a synth-pop aesthetic. “It was our aim this year to craft a diverse lineup and to represent different genres of music that students are interested in with our openers that may not have had a place in Flings past,” SPEC Concer ts Co -Director and Nursing

BY JODY FREINKEL Assignments Editor The race for student body president is heating up, with candidates taking shots at each other at last night’s debate. Presidential candidates Joyce Kim and Gabe Delaney, both College juniors, faced off last night at the 2014 Undergraduate Assembly Presidential Debate in Steinberg-Dietrich Hall. The event was co-hosted by the Nominations and Elections Committee and The Daily Pennsylvanian and was moderated by College junior Fiona Glisson, the DP’s Campus News Editor. Throughout the debate, Kim, a former UA secretary, mentioned results

achieved by her work as a member of the UA. She said that Delaney, the current UA vice president, has not delivered on promises he made during last year’s campaign. “My job is specifically to be the external [representative for] the UA. And that job I have done very well, I think,” Delaney said. “I have worked on the same projects this year with you, Joyce. ... I’ve been as active as you are.” Delaney cited his work on a centralized Penn mobile app, which is currently in production, and said that he recommended the mental health task force to Penn President Amy Gutmann, although his original suggestion was based on her presidential commission on student alcohol consumption. Mental health on campus was a continued theme of the debate. For SEE UA DEBATE PAGE A7

Candidates face off at UA presidential debate College juniors Joyce Kim and Gabe Delaney are vying to be next student body pres.

John Jackson, the Richard Perry University professor at Penn, will be the new dean of the School of Social Policy & Practice, effective July 1. Jackson, a senior advisor for diversity in the Office of the Provost, is a cultural anthropologist, author and documentary filmmaker. He will succeed Richard Gelles, who has served as the school’s dean since 2001. “John is a distinguished teacher, a renowned scholar, and a visionary leader whose work crosses traditional academic boundaries and involves community partners in understanding and confronting societal challenges around the nation and the world,” Penn President Amy Gutmann said in a statement. “He is the best person to advance the School of Social Policy & Practice toward its goal of becoming

Even though 1984 Penn Law graduate John Hanger withdrew from the Democratic gubernatorial primary last week, he believes that his campaign’s message had a lasting impact on the dialogue between the candidates. The former secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection withdrew from the race last Thursday because he no longer saw a path to victory in the primary. Despite no longer being a contender for governor, Hanger is pleased that the remaining candidates have adopted some of his stances on various issues, such as marijuana legalization, the environment and education. His views on marijuana reform were the most liberal of all the Democratic candidates — something he was wellknown for in the field. His ultimate goal was the full legalization of the substance. “We made marijuana an issue in this race when it wasn’t before,” Hanger said. Several other Democratic challengers to Republican Governor Tom Corbett have come out in favor of steps one and two in Hanger’s marijuana reform plan: medical legalization and decriminalization of the possession of small amounts of the drug. The remaining candidates do not support legalization to the same extent SEE HANGER PAGE A2

The TYP plan gives students nine more dining plan options BY JENNY LU Staff Writer A new, customizable dining plan will be available for upperclassmen next academic year. Known as the Take Your Pick — or TYP — Plan, the new program allows students to create their own plan by selecting one of three options for meal swipes and one of three options of Dining Dollars. Costs range from $2,140 per year for 26 meal swipes and $1,750 Dining Dollars to $3,075 per year for 50 meals swipes and $2,350 Dining Dollars. With this plan, like others that are currently offered, students can still add on meal swipes or Dining Dollars at any time. “We have heard from students that they wanted more f lexibility in their dining plans,” Pam Lampitt, director of Hospitality Services, which

oversees Penn Dining, said in an email. The University Dining Hall Advisory Board played a key role in formulating the new plan and working with students and administrators. Kosher Liaison to DHAB Hillel Neumark, a College junior, said the plan originated from a proposal last semester for a meal plan option that would allow students to create or customize the components of it. “[ They] presented enhanced-meal-plan-flexibility as a long-term goal that they believed would greatly benefit students and Penn Dining alike,” Neumark said. UA representative and College sophomore Andrew Robertson said he initially had the idea for a “toggle” customizable plan which he presented to the board along with fellow UA representative and College junior Danielle Golub. Robertson and Golub then worked with Penn Dining to create the final TYP plan. “[Penn Dining] was really receptive,” Robertson said,

adding the process to finalize the plan was “surprisingly very easy.” Lampitt said the timing of the proposal by the UA was good because Penn Dining is in the process of implementing a new dining plan management system that would allow for the increased flexibility of plans. “As a result of the TYP plan, upperclassmen will now be able to choose from 15 possible dining plan options as opposed to this year’s eight options, which represents a dramatic upgrade in upperclassmen dining flexibility,” Neumark said in an email. Robertson said he wanted more dining plan options to encourage students to frequent dining halls. “People eating in the same place develops more of a community,” he explained. O vera l l , R ober t son is pleased with the result of all the combined efforts.“My goal with this project was to make a more customizable dining plan, and I think that we did a good job of that,” he said.

Hanger hasn’t endorsed other candidates HANGER from page A1 as Hanger, but he remains confident that support for legalization will continue to build if the first two steps in his plan are enacted. In addition to his advocacy for marijuana reform, Hanger pushed for measures to strengthen Pennsylvania’s primary and secondary schools and reduce the cost of postsecondary education for residents of the Commonwealth. Hanger remains proud of his proposed Keystone Opportunity Fund, a program by which any Pennsylvania high school student could attend two years of community college or one year of school at an in-state public university tuition-free. The fund would be replenished by the participants in the program who would agree to pay 1 to 2 percent of their income back into the fund for 15 years postgraduation. “Student loan debt is crushing families,” Hanger said, calling his plan “a game-changer for Pennsylvania students and families.” Besides policy issues, Hang-

JOHN HANGER er’s withdrawal statement last week cited winning the Democratic primary in May and unseating Corbett in the general election as critical goals for the campaign. Although his second goal is now out of reach, Hanger remains confident that whichever Democratic candidate eventually wins the nomination, they will be able to end “the long nightmare of the Corbett administration” come November. In order to keep the race positive, Hanger has so far abstained from endorsing any of his former rivals; however, he cites businessman and former Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue Tom Wolf as the clear frontrunner in the race. Wolf’s campaign has more money than any of the remaining Democratic candidates, in part due to $10 million he contributed to his own campaign. “Wolf has blown the race wide open with his television campaign,” said Hanger, who raised just over $1 million for his cam-

paign. He said the ads were one reason he felt he could no longer win the primary. “We couldn’t compete.” Penn political science professor Marc Meredith — who studies elections — says that it’s hard to say who Hanger’s supporters will back now, since most polls aren’t designed to take into account why voters support a candidate, only that they do. He agreed with Hanger that money is playing a large role in the Democratic primary, noting that the extra money in Wolf’s war chest allows him to run ads early and often. This lets him increase his standing in the polls while other candidates must hold their funds in reserve to use in the crucial final weeks before the election. “This kind of uncontested or one-sided message is most effective,” Meredith said. Wolf currently polls highest of the four remaining candidates in surveys of both registered Democrats and likely voters. All four of the Democrats remaining in the race, including Wharton alumnus Rob McCord, received more support than Governor Corbett in a February poll from Quinnipiac University. At this point, Hanger is hopeful that whichever candidate emerges from the primary will be well-prepared to beat Corbett. “That’s the key right now,” he said.

Source: Erick Hyde, University Connection Counseling Specialist BY LAURA ANTHONY Deputy News Editor Applying to college can be hard enough for American students. It’s even more difficult for international students but new Coursera class might help make the process a bit easier for them. The course “Applying to U.S. Universities” aims to help familiarize international students and non-native English speakers who do not have the other forms of support throughout the application process — like guidance counselors — with the process of applying to undergraduate degree programs at American colleges and universities. “In many countries, applying to universities is a centralized process, and here in the U.S. you couldn’t get more decentralized,” Erick Hyde, the course instructor and a University Connection Counseling specialist with the English Language Programs at Penn, said. As of Sunday at 12:01 a.m., the APUSU course is offered in a four-week online format through Coursera, an online learning platform which pro-

vides free non-credit courses which partners with Penn. Already about 15,000 students worldwide are enrolled. The course covers topics like what admissions officers look for in applications, strategies for self-assessment to find the right university and the logistics of planning and submitting all the necessary elements of an application. The students are required to watch video lectures, read articles, submit weekly assignments and take a final exam at the end of the course. The capstone project in the final week of the course requires them to create an application plan, drawing on the knowledge and resources they have gained throughout the class. The course has been offered in a classroom setting since 2004, when University Connection was first established to help international students navigate the application and admissions process, Jack Sullivan, associate director of programs for ELP, said in an email. Hyde, who has been teaching APUSU for the past three years, said the content of the new version of the class is very

similar to the original classroom version. Students will receive a statement of accomplishment after fulfilling the requirements, but Hyde emphasized that the statement will not help a student gain admission to Penn or any specific university. “We really want to emphasize it’s the knowledge, it’s what the student learns in these four weeks,” he said. “That’s what will be able to help them submit a stronger application.” Hyde and Rock said this course has a different demographic than most Coursera courses, which he described as attracting “professionals who have already completed advanced education.” Hyde has not seen any other Coursera offerings that appeal specifically to high school students or to English language learners. While Hyde does not yet know how often the course will be offered in the future or if it will impact international application numbers, he hopes that APUSU will give them a better chance at success. “My hope for the class is that it gives students confidence in applying,” he said.

THE INTERNET EXPLORER | Whether it’s Silicon Valley or the American South, let’s learn how to be OK with making a living someplace else

ccording to Career Services, a survey of the 2013 graduating class reveals that less than 10 percent of students went to technology jobs. But that’s not for lack of want. It’s no secret that today, the technology sector has a burgeoning and growing hunger for full-time employees. The Start-Up Career Fair held last month in Houston Hall featured over 50 companies looking for programmers, product developers, data-literate strategists, etc. Those companies need young people who can think fast and fix mistakes faster. They want smart, and they want plucky too. Penn students fit the bill, but our culture is geared more toward OCR and Wall Street than networking and Silicon Valley. Bain will hire a fresh crop of Penn students

every year like clockwork. But here’s the thing: startups need consultants, too.

‘‘

New York City lore says: If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere. Penn students have proven that we can make it in New York. Why don’t we want to go anywhere else?” As far as I can tell, that’s an untapped job market. Flip through Bloomberg Businessweek’s round-up of the best B-schools in the country. While finance and financial

services remain the top industry for many MBA programs, the McCombs School of Business in Austin, Texas represents a unique trend: 25 percent of their graduates go into consulting and 18 percent go into the technology sector. Similarly, their Executive MBA program — for those who want to get an MBA with one hand and climb the corporate ladder with the other — features similar stats. Of course, we are all graduating with a Penn degree in hand (and in some cases, more than one). Whatever industry we break into, we will be fine. But as students graduating into a recovering post-recession economy, we should think about going where the jobs are — and we should realize that, if you’re interested in tech, the fastest growing jobs may not be in New York City. New York City

lore says: If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere. Penn students have proven that we can make it in New York. Why don’t we want to go anywhere else? We should open ourselves up to the possibility of making a living — and making a life — somewhere else. Our successes cannot be confined to the Northeast Corridor. And these days, it cannot even be confined to the Bay Area. When Forbes published a report on which cities in America were creating the most technolog y jobs, the results were surprising. The San Jose region — which holds 40% of the nation’s venture capital — came in 25th in their report. San Francisco came in fifth.

Unproductive dialogue

GUEST COLUMN BY J STREET U PENN

rogressive student voices are under attack. Hillel of Greater Philadelphia, the parent organization of our campus Hillel, is participating in the screening of a film called “The J Street Challenge,” which attacks and maligns the work of J Street U Penn, a progressive student organization dedicated to Israel and a future state of Palestine. HGP decided to do this without consulting any students, and their actions are akin to the Office of Student Affairs attacking one of its own member groups. On a campus where myriad ideas and opinions abound, no larger institution should ever try to delegitimize its own students. Hillel’s involvement in this event is unprecedented and unacceptable, and must be corrected at once.

J Street U Penn was founded to empower Penn students who want to end the IsraeliPalestinian conflict through a two-state solution. We encourage the American government to take a more active role in securing a safe Israel beside a vibrant Palestine in a climate long dominated by belligerent and extreme attitudes. Over the years, we have become one of the largest and most active student groups in Penn’s Hillel. Despite representing a significant constituency of Penn students, HGP nonetheless deemed it appropriate to attack us. We cannot imagine a scenario in which HGP would attack a conservative pro-Israel group, and we would condemn it if it did so. Why then is HGP targeting us through a movie filled with far-right critics of our work? HGP is actively promoting this screening

to the wider Philadelphia Jewish community, and is helping operate buses from local campuses to encourage student attendance. We believe in an intellectually rigorous conversation around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict with open debate and disagreement. We welcome discussions about the substance of our work for two states, which is why J Street leaders have debated many of our critics featured in the movie. Despite the movie being a direct attack, we do not even oppose it being screened. On a college campus, all have the right to have their voices heard. However, HGP’s active participation sends a chilling message to thousands of progressive Penn students. The Jew ish community has a long and storied history of progressive activism and leadership, from the labor movement to the struggle for

women’s empowerment. We are gratified that Penn Hillel supports student groups that represent the best values of the Jewish community, including a Jewish LGBT group and many social justice-oriented initiatives. But by participating in this, HGP turns its back on this commitment . Whether for the

‘‘

We need to demonstrate to HGP that maliciously stifling its member groups is not acceptable.” sake of far-right donors or on their own accord, the heads of HGP are abdicating responsibility for empowering a diverse Jewish campus leadership.

Sadly, HGP’s participation puts the organization in unsavory company. One of the other co-sponsors of the film is the David Horowitz Freedom Center. The Anti-Defamation League and the Center for American Progress have both condemned the Freedom Center’s work on campus as extreme. The ADL reported that the Freedom Center’s campus work “promotes anti-Muslim views and features events with anti-Muslim activists.” While we are not equating HGP with the Freedom Center or its work, HGP ought to consider whether it wants to be associated with an organization that has long been a bad actor on Penn’s campus and others around the country. Thankfully, many among the student leadership of Penn Hillel disagree with HGP. They are calling on Penn Hillel’s staff to reject HGP’s participation in this attack on progres-

Comcast VP talks “digital divide” David L. Cohen is also the Chairmain of Penn’s Board of Trustees BY JESSICA WASHINGTON Contributing Writer Comcast, Penn’s Center City neighbor, is pioneering several corporate responsibility initiatives. Yesterday, David L. Cohen, Executive Vice President at Comcast and Chairman of the Board of Trustees at Penn, spoke at the Law School. Cohen, a Penn Law graduate, has had an extensive career in both politics and law. Law professor Jerry H. Goldfeder moderated the talk, which focused predominantly on Cohen’s insight into politics and the communications industry. Cohen wants to see more financial transparency in political campaigns, based on his experiences first as campaign manager and then as chief of staff for former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell during Rendell’s Philadelphia mayorship. “Long-term solutions for the political system as a whole lie in the structure of elections,” Cohen said. He pointed to the “corrosive impacts of super [political action committees]” on elections. “I won’t give to a super PAC on a moral level ... and [not giving to super PACs] is

a policy at Comcast, as well,” Cohen said. Cohen talked about the potential upcoming merger of Comcast with Time Warner Cable. The merger has received criticism — in particular, a petition against it by Senator Al Franken — for creating a monopoly. “He has no case,” Cohen said. “Absolutely no competition exists between Comcast and Time Warner Cable.” The merger has also been criticized for being a “gatekeeper against innovation on the internet,” according to Cohen. But he maintains that Comcast has “no market incentive to throttle innovation, as broadband is our largest cash flow.” Cohen arg ued that the merger would also not hurt consumer prices. One point Cohen was particularly passionate about was the digital divide. “Broadband is the civil rights issue of the modern era,” he said, echoing civil rights activist John Lewis. “The internet has the transformative potential to equalize access to health care, education, news and entertainment,” Cohen said. “However, currently the Internet is exacerbating differences rather than leveling the playing field. We should all be embarrassed about that.” Comcast’s Internet Essen-

tials program is intended to close the digital divide. “Internet Essentials is the largest comprehensive broadband program for low-income [citizens],” Cohen said. The program attacks the three main causes of the digital divide — “absence of understanding of the internet, cost of equipment and cost of services.” Those eligible are families with children who qualify for the National School Lunch Program — which, according to Cohen, is 80 percent of

students in the Philadelphia area. Internet Essentials offers those families a lower rate for their Internet usage, subsidizes equipment and gives digital literacy classes. Ninety-four percent of Internet Essentials participants, about 1.6 million Americans, have seen academic improvement in their children. “We will do everything in our power to close this digital divide. If we don’t take this issue on, then no other company will,” Cohen added.

Helping the homeless, one case at a time Reporter’s Notebook | Penn Law students help locals with free legal work BY COSETTE GASTELU Staff Writer To passersby, St. Agatha-St. James Church may seem like nothing more than a quiet sanctuary at the corner of 38th and Chestnut streets. But if you were to venture into the multi-purpose room on any given Wednesday evening, you would see, as I did one night, a place bustling with activity: volunteers doling out hot meals, friends exchanging stories and a team of legal aid workers diligently helping clients solve their legal issues. What is noteworthy about these legal aid workers, however, is that none of them are officially lawyers — at least, not yet. In fact, they are Penn Law students who collectively form Penn Law Advocates for the

Homeless, also known as PLAH, a group that meets at St. Agatha-St. James every week to offer its pro bono services to the dozens of homeless Philadelphians who find refuge there between 6 and 7 p.m. each Wednesday. Not long after the weekly announcements and opening blessing were said, clients starting making their way to PLAH’s row of tables and chairs. One man, who must remain anonymous due to PLAH’s confidentiality policies, was seeking to obtain a copy of his birth certificate. “For a lot of people who become homeless, life is dangerous and they may lose track of their identification documents,” third-year law student and PLAH Director Sherri Golkow said. “Since you need identification to get the identification necessary to apply for things like a driver’s license, housing and other benefits, it becomes a horrible loop, but attorneys can help to break that cycle.”

As Golkow retrieved a thick packet of paperwork from a folder, the client expressed his dismay. “We have to fill out every single one of those?” he asked, eyes widening. Golkow assured him the process wouldn’t take long. Surprisingly, the task was indeed quite simple; the only thing the client really had to do was provide personal information such as his date and place of birth, parents’ names, income and citizenship status. In less than 10 minutes, he had completed the once daunting pile of forms and was well on his way to receiving a crucial piece of identification. Though a couple of repeat clients stopped by PLAH’s station, as second-year law student and PLAH Clinic Coordinator Lauren Henderson pointed out, short-term cases like the one I sat in on are the most common. But releasing copies of personal records is just one among a range of services that PLAH members can perform under

the guidance of their supervising attorney, 1990 College and 1994 Penn Law graduate Michael LiPuma. “The students have really grown [PLAH] so that they are able to help a lot more clients with different issues,” said LiPuma, who was one of PLAH’s founding members in the early 1990s. LiPuma currently sits on the Board of Directors of the Homeless Advocacy Project, a legal aid organization that partners with soup kitchens, shelters and clinics like PLAH to ensure that free legal help is easily accessible to homeless individuals throughout Philadelphia. Both LiPuma and HAP attorney Morgen Black-Smith, a 2006 Penn Law graduate and former PLAH director, hold monthly training sessions to educate PLAH members about some of the areas of practice that are particularly relevant to working with the homeless and underprivileged. The skills they teach include helping clients with their

taxes, resolving landlord-tenant disputes and applying for government benefits such as food stamps and social security. Black-Smith emphasized that the training PLAH members receive goes beyond just covering the basics of certain legal procedures. For instance, the PLAH representatives need to know “how to talk to people who, by definition, are in crisis” and be aware of any “special circumstances” that could indicate that a client needs help in more than one area, Black-Smith explained. As the night came to a close, it became clear to me that the PLAH clinic allows law students to gain valuable hands-on knowledge that they will surely be able to carry with them in their careers. “Being in PLAH is one of the earliest experiences with direct client contact you can have,” Henderson said. “It’s nice to get out of the law school bubble and get a taste of what a career could be like.”

he said. During the question-and-answer session, an audience member raised doubts about whether developing countries like China and India are actively fighting

climate change. Mann clarified that China is actually ahead of the United States in exploring sustainable resources. Developed countries sustained practices that caused carbon dioxide emissions for about two centuries before developing countries started to burn coal. This sort of “buck passing” is another example of bad faith discussion, according to Mann. “The U.S. should set a good example in the world,” he said. Horton and Mann emphasized that modern society bears an intergenerational responsibility on its shoulders. “We should make sure that we don’t leave behind a broken planet for our children and grandchildren,” Mann said.

DEAN from page A1 the leading center for interdisciplinary teaching and research on social innovation, impact, and justice.” Jackson arrived at Penn in 2006 as the first Penn Integrates Knowledge professor. PIK is a program designed to recruit faculty members for appointments in two Penn schools and who focus on interdisciplinary research. While Jackson’s current primary appointments are in the Annenberg School of Communication and the School of Arts and Sciences, he holds a secondary appointment in SP2. He is also affiliated with the Graduate School of Education and the Penn Institute for Urban Research. Jackson has written and taught about the effects of mass media on urban life, racialization and media technology. Jackson makes the second dean announced this year who has been involved in diversity efforts. Antonia Villarruel, who was appointed the next dean of the School of Nursing in late February, has served as the president of National Coalition of Ethnic Minority Nurse Associations and is the founder of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses. The hires come after a group of senior faculty in the Africana Studies Department wrote a guest column in The Daily Pennsylvanian last January claiming Gutmann has “failed to show leadership in diversifying the highest levels of University administration.” Jackson is the third dean to be named this semester. In addition to Jackson and Villarruel, the University named Geoffrey Garrett the new dean of Wharton on Monday.

Connexin47 Interventions Evaluation Point W03 Timers

Last night at the Penn Museum, two leading climate change scientists presented the political resistance scientists face in combatting climate change. The event was part of the Penn Humanities Forum, which features a series of panels and speaker events meant to educate members of the Penn community in wide-ranging academic topics. Rutgers University Professor Benjamin Horton talked about the nature of climate change and related problems, showing statistics and pictures that convincingly illustrated the seriousness of climate change and global warming.

He said awareness of the problem in the political arena is apparently skewed, as many politicians deny the existence of climate change as a serious threat to people’s lives. Penn State climatologist and geophysicist Michael Mann continued to focus on the political side of the climate change problem. Mann pointed out that politicians who have vested interests in the fossil fuel industry often abuse their power to force scientists to refrain from publishing research that might hurt the politicians’ partners. Mann is deeply concerned that society suffers from a “loss of good faith discussion” because a huge amount of time and effort have been put in the wrong place. “Hopefully,

Study shows rain and snow might be speeding up global warming Increased precipitation slowing ocean convection BY BOOKYUNG JO Staff Writer A small change in Antarctica is affecting the entire globe. A study recently published in Nature Climate Change explains how the convection cycle in the ocean is slowing down, which will likely exacerbate global warming. The study was conducted by professor Irina Marinov and postdoctoral student Raffaele

Candidates talked efficacy, mental health UA DEBATE from page A1 his part, Delaney said that he would advocate for adding even more clinicians to the Counseling and Psychological Services staff. Following two student suicides early in the semester, CAPS announced that it is adding at least three permanent staffers, but Delaney said that he would like to see between 35 and 40 additional staffers and would like to see CAPS moved to a larger facility. Plans to move CAPS are already in the works, but its new location has not yet been announced. Kim countered that mental health initiatives should be “proactive, not reactive” and said she intends to ask those with the most expertise what they think is best for the campus community. She also suggested that “CAPS should be integrated within the College

Bernadardello in collaboration with researchers from McGill University. O pen- ocea n convect ion stores a nt h ropogen ic , or human-produced, heat and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in dense water which sinks to the bottom of the ocean. This dense water forms when surface water freezes in the winter, leaving behind all the salt for much denser water which sinks to the bottom of the ocean, known as Arctic Bottom Water. With climate change and global warming, there has been more rain and snow

near the poles over the past few decades, including at the Southern Ocean. This increase in precipitation makes water fresher at the surface, making it more difficult for open-ocean convection to take place, which then takes less heat and carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. Currently, more than half of the extra heat and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is stored under the Southern Ocean. One sign that open-ocean convection is slowing down is the disappearance of polynyas, ice-free zones in the polar regions of the ocean. One

Houses so that freshman have that resource right there.” UA efficacy was also called into question. During the question and answer session, UMOJA representative and Wharton junior Christina Hardison asked how the candidates planned to make themselves available to student groups so “the UA doesn’t feel like the airport shuttle club.” Delaney suggested implementing a liaison system that would pair each UA representative with a student group so that students’ concerns are more directly presented to the UA. He also wants to give the UA a more horizontal structure and create more leadership positions within the organization in order to offer incentive to members to bring their projects to fruition. Kim, on the other hand, emphasized having concrete foundations. “Honestly, I think it comes from this: We campaign on promises that we can’t deliver,” Kim said. “That’s why I’m running on issues I’ve already worked on. I’ve proven results.” She mentioned her work both with administrators

to save Multicultural Scholars Preview when it was nearly eliminated and her ongoing work on the creation of a separate “space” for international students. Kim also criticized Delaney’s campaign focus on internal UA structure and culture. “There’s another name for that position — it’s UA Speaker,” she said. “I don’t want to engage in the attack stuff,” Delaney responded. “I don’t want to focus on what I’ve done or what you’ve done, but on what we can do together.” In her closing statement, Kim told the audience that they should have faith in her because of work she has already done. “At the end of the day, my work speaks for itself,” she said. Delaney encouraged audience members to vote for the candidate they feel is most enthusiastic about representing the student body to administrators. “I live by a certain phrase. The phrase is ‘Purpose is power,’” he said. “At the end of the day, you don’t vote for plans. You vote for people.” Voting will open on Monday, March 24.

example is the Weddell Sea Polynya, which disappeared in the 1970s. Marinov thinks people should be more aware of the disappearance of polynyas. “When the polynya happened in the ’70s, people paid attention for a while but hasn’t been mentioned for more than twenty years,” Marinov said. She expects to resuscitate the interest through the recent findings. One possible implication of the slowing down of openocean convection is that less anthropogenic heat and carbon dioxide from the atmo-

sphere will be stored in the ocean, warming the planet further and increasing global warming in a “positive feedback” loop. The decrease in open-ocean convection might also affect ocean ecosystems. Nutrients and oxygen that are needed by life in the ocean sink down with Antarctic Bottom Water, reaching not just oceans around Antarctica but around the world. “This is one place in the ocean that is connected to all parts of the world,” Marinov said. Marinov and Bernardello

started the research from a model they were running which showed the changes in the ocean over time. “We thought that the results from these models were coming out around the world and wanted to see if they were consistent,” Bernardello said. They are now working on follow-up research focusing on the implications of change in open-ocean convection. “We anticipate a slowdown of Arctic Bottom Water will affect both the uptake of heat and anthropogenic carbon into the ocea n,” Ma r inov said.

WRESTLING | Despite lack of experience, Quakers ready to prove themselves in Oklahoma City BY KARL BAGHERZADEH Senior Staff Writer

In every sport, come the postseason, there’s an old cliche that says “experience matters.” Regardless of whether or not that statement is accurate, experience will be a big question mark for Penn’s wrestling team as it prepares for this year’s edition of the NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships. The Quakers will be represented by a group of grapplers without national tournament experience for the first time since 1991. “It’s hard being a first-timer coming in because you don’t truly know what you get yourself into,” coach Rob Eiter said. “So that’s where we as coaches come in and try to make sure that if we see them getting a little caught up with everything, we’ll take them out. The guys are super exited to be here and that’s the most important, to have that positive attitude.” Last year, Penn entered the NCAAs under the guidance of senior grapplers Micah Burak and Mark Rappo, both of whom had already accumulated significant experience in the tournament,

with Burak reaching All-American status a year earlier thanks to a seventh-place finish. Nevertheless, the Red and Blue came out of the 2013 NCAA Championships empty-handed, with Burak barely missing out on All-American honors due to his 4-3 defeat against Iowa State’s Kyven Gadson. This time around, Penn’s grapplers hope that, contrary to popular belief , experience does not matter. And maybe a wave of fresh faces won’t be a bad thing. The Quakers are sending four wrestlers to Oklahoma City’s Chesapeake Energy Arena, including 2014 Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Assocation Championship runners-up junior Lorenzo Thomas (184 pounds) and senior Brad Wukie (174). Thomas and Wukie will take the mats along with sophomore Casey Kent (16 5), who a lso clinched an automatic bid to the NCAAs by virtue of his fourthplace finish at the EIWAs. Penn’s lone at-large selection was freshman Caleb Richardson (125). The Red and Blue’s only seeded grappler, Thomas, will enter the tournament ranked No. 11. Two weeks ago, the junior sent a message to the wrestling nation by taking Cornell’s Gabe Dean to the wire in the EIWA finals. Thomas ultimately fell, 3-1, in a very controversial match. “[Thomas] can go as far as he

in time for the most important meetings of the year, reaching the finals at the EIWAs. At the NCAAs, like at the conference tournament, he will be able to count on the element of surprise, having flown under the radar for most of the season. “If I’m on top of my game, I don’t think anybody can wrestle me,” Wukie said after EIWAs. “Brad’s probably wrestling

No. 12 Penn women’s lacrosse has dominated the Ivy League in recent years. But against elite opponents, it’s been a different story. Taking on No. 2 Maryland at home, the Quakers were thoroughly outclassed by the Terrapins, falling, 15-5, in their eighth loss to a top-five team in the last three seasons. With a driving rainstorm pounding the turf at Franklin Field from the opening draw, Maryland (10-0) pounced on Penn (4-2) quickly, as redshirtjunior attack Brooke Griffin charged down the left wing and ripped a rocket of a shot past Penn junior goalie Lucy Ferguson’s shoulder just 14 seconds into the game. It was all downhill from there for Ferguson and Penn’s defense. A little under 90 seconds later, senior midfield

Rain washes away games for baseball and softball Baseball’s game at ’Nova and softball’s games vs. Lehigh postponed due to weather conditions BY STEVEN TYDINGS Senior Sports Editor

Both Penn baseball and softball had planned to resume play after a productive spring break but Mother Nature had other plans. Penn baseball’s matchup at Villanova and Penn softball’s doubleheader against Lehigh at Penn Park were postponed on Wednesday, and no makeup date has been announced for either game. Penn softball (4-7) had be-

gun its first game of the day against the Mountain Hawks but the rain washed away the Red and Blue’s ugly start. The Quakers had surrendered seven runs in the first inning, forcing coach Leslie King to change pitchers. When the game was called in the second inning, the Red and Blue were down, 10-3, with their Ivy League and Big 5 Player of Week, freshman Leah Allen, at the plate. At that point, the rain may have started to affect Lehigh’s pitchers, who issued two walks to the Quakers before the postponement. Furthermore, puddles had begun to form on the field, creating hazardous conditions that forced the umpires to can-

cel the rest of play. The Red and Blue have nine consecutive home games scheduled, beginning with a doubleheader at Penn Park this Sunday against St. Joseph’s. Penn baseball (2-9), on the other hand, didn’t start its game and will hold its season opener on Saturday against Lafayette. The Quakers have back-to-back doubleheaders against the Leopards this weekend. The Red and Blue have yet to play a home game under new coach John Yurkow, playing one series against Dallas Baptist before spring break and eight games against a variety of opponents over break.

in and saves the ball high.” The sudden collapse on the defensive end was particularly befuddling given Penn’s sterling reputation in its own end of the field — the Quakers’ 7.40 goals against average entering the game was the 11th-best mark in the country. Those struggles were compounded by an offense that managed to miss the net on 10 of its 21 shots, which left Penn with little hope of maintaining its three-game winning streak. With three more nonconference games left before Ivy play resumes — two against ranked opponents — Corbett knows that her team needs to pick up the pace. “It’s been plaguing us. Our shooting has really been a problem,” she said. “We’ve got to be better.”

Richardson, a much-heralded freshman coming into the 2013-14 season, is looking to prove he can bounce back from a disappointing 0-2 performance at the conference tournament. Similarly to this year’s EIWAs, while none of the Quakers’ representatives enter the tournament a clear-cut favorite, the team is looking forward to a great performance. In the end, it is quite unclear if experience matters. On the other hand, a national title or All-American status definitely does. “My confidence is pretty high,” Eiter said. “I really, truly believe these guys have looked the best they have all year the past two weeks. And I’m not just doing a typical coach’s speech, I really think these guys have the potential right here.”

Baron’s paved legacy as player and leader BARON from page B1 impact on the program. “In the first half, I just kept taking it strong to the basket. I knew the defenders couldn’t cover me as well as they should have been able to,” Baron said after that 70-59 win over Bryant in the 2010-11 season. Well, they still haven’t figured out how to cover one of the most hard-charging, neverback-down guards whose jump floaters will remain the most iconic shot in Penn women’s basketball history. As she has built up her resume — Ivy Rookie of the Year, second at Penn all-time in points, two first-team All-Ivy nods — she has done it with a smile on her face and the team at the forefront. Baron has provided the Palestra with more than its fair share of memorable moments. While not as crowd-pleasing as Ibby Jaaber’s dunk against Florida Gulf Coast or momentous as Steve Danley’s strip of Andre Logan to complete Penn’s 18-point turnaround at Princeton, Baron’s game-winning three-pointer in the Women’s Basketball Invitational over Fairfield last season will be forever remembered by those who attended as a truly dramatic moment in a historic building. “It’s a shot I’ve taken hundreds of times, I’ve practiced almost every day of my life and I just pulled up for the shot and it luckily went in,” Baron said in a post-game interview after the step-back jumper. For those who see her every day, it was a familiar sight — Baron just being herself and continually amazing others in the process. “All my four years I’ve been waiting for this opportunity,” Baron said after Selection Monday. “It’s just a huge accomplishment. We had an overall team effort and it’s what I’ve been

dreaming about for four years, we’ve been working towards it ... and tonight we were able to get it accomplished,” Baron said after the Princeton win. “It’s just so gratifying for all our hard work.” A nd now we’ve come to March. The end of the season may prove integral to shaping her legacy here at Penn. “[I’ve been impressed with] her overall basketball maturity, she has special skill, but she’s learned how to play for the good of the team,” coach Mike McLaughlin said earlier in the year. “If she needs to score, she’ll try to score more. If she needs to rebound, she’ll try to rebound. If she needs to be a better leader, she’ll try to do that. “She’s always tried to take not only her basketball game, but her leadership to another level,” he added. “When she’s done in March, I think you’ll see not only a tremendous basketball player who has done well here, but someone who has become a leader for her teammates.” While Baron’s legacy as one of the best Ivy players of all time may be up for debate, it’s not quite time to discuss it yet. Instead, there are just three days to go before the biggest game of her life.

McCullough ‘can’t stop smiling’ MCCULLOUGH from page B1 While outsiders tend to focus on the accolades of her teammates — Iv y League Player of the Year A lyssa Ba ron and Iv y Defensive Player of the Year Sydney Stipanovich come to mind — it is hard to say that anyone has had as big of an impact for the Quakers this season than McCullough. That fact is visible from a statistical standpoint, with the senior guard leading the A ncient Eight in assist to turnover ratio while averaging north of 35 minutes a game for the Red and Blue. Yet the senior point guard doesn’t put up flashy point totals, and her numbers may not jump off the page compared to her teammates. Instead, it’s McCullough’s intangibles that have made the difference for a Penn squad that stands just three days away f rom its f irst NCA A Tournament game

in 10 years. “She is someone you can r ely on t o do a ny t h i ng,” McLaughlin said. “You want to change defenses? You tell Meghan and the whole team follows. You want to run a set? You tell Meghan and rest of the team follows.” Last year, McCullough sat on the sidelines as the Quakers pulled out their first postseason victories in program history. The then-junior tore her ACL early in the 2012-13 season and had an arduous road getting back. But instead of giving up, she worked through the rehab process and stood ready to regain her role as Penn’s starting point guard. “You definitely go through pie c es wher e you t h i n k , ‘Wow, I don’t think I’ll ever

get back to full speed,’” McCullough said, “but you see other girls who have [gone through rehab] and other athletes ... who have done it, and it is motivating that you know there will be that light at the end of the tunnel.” A fter Penn lost soundly to Princeton to begin the Iv y season, many doubted that the Quakers could dethrone the Tigers. Yet even after that game, McCullough said that the Red and Blue “were definitely equal talent,” displaying confidence in her team. A nd the senior capt ain doubled down on her dedication, especially in Penn’s impressive win at Harvard on Feb. 21, when she took a plane flight directly from a job interview to the game,

making it just in time to put in a 39-minute effort. Three weeks later, McCu l loug h scored just si x points in Penn’s win over Princeton, but her four assists, four steals and zero turnovers speak louder than her point totals ever could. “Playing them and beating them at Princeton was awesome,” McCullough said. “We worked hard all season. To have the confidence to do that and to play our best on their court is incredible. Now McCullough is ready for the NCAA Tournament, riding the good vibes of the team’s past week. “I keep say i ng [t hat] I can’t stop smiling,” she said. “It’s been super exciting this past week but we’re looking forward to Sunday.”

THE BUZZ

Coach Yurkow talks about baseballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spring break BY SEAMUS POWERS From The Daily Pennsylvanianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sports blog, THE BUZZ We caught up with Penn baseball coach John Yurkow after a busy spring break in which the Quakers dropped six of eight games. The squad, which is seeking better consistency at the plate, battled the likes of Navy, Towson, Monmouth, Delaware State and

Richmond over the break. The Quakers game at Villanova today was rained out and has not been rescheduled yet. Daily Pennsylvanian: Your team had a busy break with eight games, some of them in cold weather. You were only able to win two, but they were all pretty close. Can you talk about how the team played and your biggest takeaways? John Yurkow: It was good

keeping the guys together for a week. I think its good for chemistry, and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about school as much. They were able to focus on being good teammates and enjoying the game for a week. It was interesting because we did play in some really cold weather. DP: Can you talk about how it felt to get your first win as a head coach? JY: It was almost a feeling of relief for the team. We got the

first one, and then we really exploded in the second game [against Delaware State] and started swinging the bats a little bit. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a good feeling to get the first win. You hope your guys then understand what it takes to win. I think right now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a bit of a rut as far as our offense. We just havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to get a big hit in a bunch of these games. DP: In many of your early losses, the team fell behind early and was unable to come back. Is coming out stronger something you are emphasizing? JY: When you get out to a lead, it allows you to be more aggressive in your offense. You can play some more hit and runs, you can try to steal some more bases, you can start runners. When you get behind, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a little bit limited with what you can do offensively.

The way our offense is made up, we need to be a team that is consistent one through nine. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the one thing that we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done a good job with so far this spring. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a team that has to pitch well, play good defense and have a solid offensive approach. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not good enough to fail in one of those areas and still be successful. DP: Your pitching staff was able to keep you in a lot of close games. Can you talk about some of the pitching performances that impressed you over the break? JY: Those guys are starting to settle in and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I thought they would do. Connor Cuff has pitched great. Its kind of frustrating how we still havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been able to get him a win, as well as heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pitched. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been great, Dan Gautieri has been a lot better his last two times out. Ronnie Glenn has given us solid performanc-

es too. And some of the freshmen are starting to come along. DP: Junior Jeff McGarry and sophomore Marshall Harden, two players who were not very involved at the plate last season, have been two of Pennâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest weapons this season. Can you touch on their emergence, and whether it has surprised you? JY: Jeff McGarry, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably the best athlete on our team. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do. He goes over to first base, makes a couple of great diving plays. He can really throw for a first baseman. Obviously heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gonna pitch some for us this season. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s settled into the three-hole rather well. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got great hand-eye coordination. He can hit the ball to all fields. ... Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also good to see Marshall Harden because he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a ton of at-bats last year. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really developed into a solid hitter.

THE BUZZ

Breaking down the NCAA men’s basketball bracket

BY IAN WENIK

From The Daily Pennsylvanian’s sports blog, THE BUZZ Ready for March? We are. Go region by region as Sports Editor — and bracketology minor — Ian Wenik gives you the details of the DP’s NCAA Tournament predictions. SOUTH REGION Game to watch (Round of 64) VCU (5) vs. Stephen F. Austin (12). Havoc? Not so fast. VCU’s all-out press may rank second in adjusted defense by Ken Pomeroy’s metrics, but the Lumberjacks’ plodding pace is designed to avoid the turnovers and transition opportunities that the Rams thrive on. A Stephen F. Austin upset will be in the cards if junior guard Jacob Parker (46.7 percent from beyond the arc) can get going early. Game to watch (Round of 32) Kansas (2) vs. New Mexico (7). The Jayhawks dispatched the Lobos by 17 in Kansas City back in December, but that was in large part due to the presence of freshman sensation Joel Embiid in the middle, who scored 18 points and blocked four shots. But with Embiid out due to a back injury, there’s no one available to stop powerful forward Cameron Bairstow. The Lobos pull the upset. Sweet Sixteen Florida (1) vs. UCLA (4). The Bruins, though, bring a much stronger backcourt to the table in Jordan Adams and Kyle Anderson. Anderson lights it up from deep, while Adams can create his own shot from anywhere on the floor. UCLA’s bugaboo? It can’t board to save its life. Against glass-crashers like Florida’s Patric Young and Will Yeguete, that’s a recipe for disaster. Syracuse (3) vs. New Mexico (7). The Orange have garnered a reputation for thrilling finishes this season. Remember Tyler Ennis’ buzzer-beater against Pitt? Or the duels with Duke? ‘Cuse will likely need some late heroics to hold off the Lobos. Look for a veteran like senior forward C.J.

Fair to be the difference down on the low block. Elite Eight Florida (1) vs. Syracuse (3). Did the Gators coast through a soft SEC this season? Plenty of detractors have being saying that all season, and those cries will be even louder against the battle-tested Orange. But in those disturbing late-season losses to Boston College and Georgia Tech, Syracuse forgot how to shoot from deep. Look for that trend to pop up again against Florida’s relentless perimeter defense. EAST REGION Game to watch (Round of 64) Cincinnati (5) vs. Harvard (12). Led by do-it-all Sean Kilpatrick, Cincy is essentially a one-man show. Harvard, in contrast, has the desirable problem of needing to figure out how to distribute the ball to its six different all-Ivy selections. The Bearcats simply don’t have the secondary scoring options needed to keep up with Siyani Chambers, Laurent Rivard and the rest of the Crimson. Game to watch (round of 32) Villanova (2) vs. UConn (7). There’s nothing quite like an old Big East rematch. The veterans on the Wildcats and Huskies are certainly familiar with each other, and UConn senior guard Shabazz Napier is chomping at the bit to crush coach Jay Wright’s NCAA dreams. But the Wildcats are too diverse on offense through their four-out motion to fall in the first weekend. Sweet Sixteen Villanova (2) vs. Iowa State (3). (DeAndre) Kane is able. Pardon the pun, but it’s been the efforts of the Cyclones’ senior guard that have resulted in coach Fred Hoiberg’s first Big 12 title. Kane has scored in double figures in 11 straight games and forms an outside-in threat with senior forward Melvin Ejim (18.1 ppg) that Villanova simply doesn’t have the firepower to keep up with. Virginia (1) vs. Michigan State (4). No one rebounds quite like a Tom Izzo-coached team. And now that the Spartans are finally fully healthy, the preseason No.

Sam Sherman/Senior Staff Photographer

Sophomore guard Siyani Chambers will be a major factor for Harvard in its matchup against Cincinnati, as the Crimson look an NCAA Tournament upset. 2 team in the country is geared up to make another deep run. The Cavaliers are strong inside, but don’t have the perimeter firepower to match up with guards Gary Harris, Keith Appling and Branden Dawson. Elite Eight Iowa State (3) vs. Michigan State (4) Every recruiting class of Tom Izzo’s career has made at least one Final Four appearance in its four years on Michigan State’s campus. If this year’s senior class wants to keep that streak alive, it will likely need a herculean effort from senior forward Adreian Payne (7.4 rpg) on the defensive glass against Ejim to keep the Cyclones from getting secondchance opportunities. This could be the game of the tournament. WEST REGION Game to watch (round of 64) Gonzaga (8) vs. Oklahoma State (9) The Cowboys have come alive since the return of star sophomore Marcus Smart from a suspension for shoving a fan, winning four of their last six games. Smart’s presence, combined with the sudden emergence of Phil Forte on the wing, should be enough to handle a solid Gonzaga squad that was not tested heavily in the WCC. Game to watch (round of 32)

Creighton (3) vs. Baylor (6) The hits just keep on coming for Sports Illustrated cover boy and Jays superstar Doug McDermott, who captured the NCAA scoring title with a 26.9 ppg average. But the Bears are one of the hottest teams in the nation, having won six consecutive games before falling to Iowa State in the Big XII tournament final. It will take a village to stop Baylor. Sweet Sixteen Arizona (1) vs. San Diego State (4) The Wildcats crash the offensive glass, grabbing 35 percent of offensive rebounding opportunities, and they already beat San Diego State on its home floor by nine points, grinding it out due to the presence of freshman forward Aaron Gordon. Unless the Aztecs come up with a way to deal with Arizona’s superior inside athleticism, they’ll be going home early. Wisconsin (2) vs. Baylor (6) Bo Ryan’s Badgers have a history of falling to lower seeds in the tournament, but this year, his squad has caught a break. Wisconsin plays it safe, committing turnovers on only 11.1 percent of its possessions. Even though Baylor is far superior on the glass, the Bears won’t have nearly as many offensive chances as they would need to catch up.

Elite Eight Arizona (1) vs. Wisconsin (2) Arizona might be able to neutralize Wisconsin forward Frank Kaminsky with a combination of Gordon and forward Brandon Ashley, but can it keep up with the Badgers’ guard play? As long as junior guard Nick Johnson keeps up his high level of play, the Wildcats will be able to force the Badgers out of their tempo and earn a long-awaited trip to Arlington. Midwest Game to watch (round of 64) Texas (7) vs. Arizona State (10) Very little separates these two teams, save for Texas’ overwhelming ability to rebound. But Sun Devils guard Jahii Carson has scored at least 20 points in 12 different games this season. You can’t rebound the basketball if it’s going through the bottom of the net. Arizona State survives and advances. Game to watch (Round of 32) Wichita State (1) vs. Kentucky (8) How the mighty have fallen. Once considered a foregone conclusion to win the national title, John Calipari’s Wildcats have crashed hard, as his fabulous freshmen have failed to truly coalesce. That lack of chemistry will be fatal against the talented, deep and, most importantly, united Shockers, who have been laserfocused all year long. Sweet Sixteen Wichita State (1) vs. Louisville (4) Last year, the Shockers’ stunning run to the Final Four was halted by the eventual national champion Cardinals. This year, Wichita State has an even bigger target on its back that reads “340.” Criminally underseeded, Louisville will use the oft-spectacular play of senior guard Russ Smith to end the Shockers’ perfect season and keep hopes of a title repeat alive. Michigan (2) vs. Duke (3) Will it be the Jabari Parker show in March? The Duke guard has quickly proven himself to be the best of a much ballyhooed

freshman class, averaging 19.3 points per game. If Parker gets hot, not only will he prevent an Elite Eight rematch of last year’s national title game, he’ll also give himself a shot at being picked first overall in the NBA Draft. Elite Eight Duke (3) vs. Louisville (4) It’s tough to find too much separation between the Blue Devils and Cardinals. Both shoot efficiently from all spots on the floor and find ways to crash the boards on both ends of the floor. But Louisville is far superior at trapping and forcing turnovers, and its veteran backcourt will be able to flummox Parker and junior guard Quinn Cook. Final Four Florida (1) vs. Michigan State (4) When healthy, Michigan State is the most talented team in the country. But there’s a big difference between “most talented” and “best team.” With eight different players receiving at least 10 minutes of action per game, it doesn’t matter who spreads out around elite point guard Scottie Wilbekin, the Gators will find a way to penetrate and get easy buckets. Arizona (1) vs. Louisville (4) The Wildcats are the beneficiaries of the weakest region in the tournament, but will run into a cardinal-red buzzsaw when they tip off in AT&T Stadium. Louisville’s forward combination of Montrezl Harrell and Chane Behanan may be the best frontcourt duo in the country, and Arizona simply won’t have enough to answer the call on the post — or outside on kick-out passes. National Championship Florida (1) vs. Louisville (4) Can Rick Pitino repeat? Well, Peyton Siva isn’t walking through that door. Neither is Gorgui Deng. This year’s Cardinals are certainly comparable to last year’s champs, but the Gators have certainly proved themselves capable of fending off any challenge. The difference will likely be Florida’s superior three-point shooting, as the Gators claim the NCAA title.
