Tennessee stunned forward Azia Bishop and UK Hoops on Sunday. It is the third time in the last five years that UK lost to Tennessee in the SEC championship.
JUST OUT OF REACH Hoops’ SEC run ends in familiar fashion By Tyler Spanyer tspanyer@kykernel.com
After avenging regularseason sweeps against Florida and South Carolina, UK Hoops advanced to its fourth SEC Tournament final in five years, but fell Sunday to Tennessee, 71-70, in Duluth, Ga. The Cats’ run ended in a familiar fashion. Sunday marked the Cats’ secondstraight SEC Championship game loss and their fourth in five years. In the finals, they met Tennessee in a battle of SEC heavyweights. UK led 38-32 at the half behind senior DeNesha Stallworth’s 12 points. In the second half, the Cats were challenged by the Volunteers’ size. Tennessee retook the lead with just under 9 minutes to go in the game. It was Tennessee’s first lead since the 16-minute mark in the first half. As they came down the
home stretch, both teams threw what seemed like knockout blows, but Tennessee was able to pull out the one point victory behind key baskets from senior Meighan Simmons. UK’s final lead was 63-61 with 2:42 remaining. The Lady Volunteers went on a 60 run to take a decisive hold on the game. The Cats made 24 of 54 shots from the field. But Tennessee out-rebounded UK, 39-34. Stallworth finished with a game-high 21 points and five rebounds to lead the Cats. It was Tennessee’s 17th SEC Tournament title, a record for the SEC. Throughout the tournament, Stallworth led, averaging 15.3 points and 4.3 rebounds per game in the tournament. Stallworth and freshman Linnae Harper were named to the SEC All-Tournament Team for their performances.

Freshman forward Julius Randle was key in the comeback against Florida on Saturday, scoring 10 second-half points.
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Saturday was supposed to be UK’s day. Four months ago, March 8 was the day that the Cats would surely christen a perfect 18-0 SEC season. With the hype ringing from media to fans to players themselves, Saturday was to be another milestone on the way to bigger and better things. But Saturday’s game, and that vision, belonged to the University of Florida. As the Stephen O’Connell Center celebrated the Gators’ four senior starters and a 84-65 win, everybody left knowing who was the real SEC juggernaut.

Both the Dean-Pulliam and Ingram-Jackson campaigns have filed claims accusing the other of voting infractions. The details are not being released until the election board investigator has looked into both claims, Election Board Chairman Josh Buettner said Sunday. If the investigator, law student Taylor Clark, finds that the claims have merit, they will go to a hearing with the Student Government Supreme Court on Wednesday. The claims come on the heels of Jake Ingram’s election as Student Government president over Micaha Dean on Friday. Ingram and running mate Mariel Jackson won by 204 votes in the unofficial count. This year’s Student Government election saw nearly 2,000 more votes than last year, with 5,205 total. But both campaigns have said they did not break any election regulations. The Dean-Pulliam ticket said it planned to file a claim regarding “severe election infractions” on Friday. “In consideration of the narrow vote margin, these infractions could have a significant effect on the official election results,” according to a Dean-Pulliam news release. Ingram responded to the claims, saying on Thursday that his campaign could file citations against Dean-Pulliam ticket as well. On Friday, they did. “We are not at all worried,” Ingram said. STAFF REPORT
Florida won the game by halftime. The Gators’ 49 points (by far the most UK has given up in a half this season) created a 21-point lead. The Cats were done. They went to the locker room without a chance. But then they fought. A shocking 15-0 run midway through the second half cut the lead to six. UK was taking (and making) good shots and playing great defense, and it had made a colossal blowout look like it could become a historic comeback. But then once Florida scored to quell the run, the other Cats came back. For those five minutes, UK played its best. As they’ve shown time after time, the Cats couldn’t maintain that level. If they do it for even 20 minutes at a time, they could be great. Yet against Florida, on a day See FLORIDA on page 2

In a purple velvet suit on a dimly lit stage at the Singletary Center on Saturday, Aziz Ansari had the crowd in stitches for his entire show, as many anticipated he would. What the crowd wasn’t banking on was learning a lesson from Ansari’s hilariously eyeopening take on dating in the 21st century. The stand-up comedian and “Parks and Recreation” star played perfectly to his audience’s taste, focusing on topics such as relationships and social media. Ansari could make even astrophysics amusing, but the decision to reach out to ANSARI the primarily college-aged crowd made his set that much more enjoyable. And everything went, including foul language and bits about sex. To my surprise, Ansari spent a great deal of time interacting with the audience, at one point reading aloud text messages from audience members’ phones. He rolled the dice in doing so, as the texts could have said virtually anything. But the move paid off — his improvisation abilities were impressive.

A team that can’t get over the championship hump Hoops gets another runner-up finish in tournament KEVIN ERPENBECK Kernel columnist
After making it to their fourth SEC Tournament final in five years, the result was the same for the Cats: a runner-up finish after a loss to the University of Tennessee.
UK certainly accomplished a lot in this year’s conference tournament as the No. 4 seed. It beat a University of Florida team that swept UK in the regular season, then upset one of the best teams in the nation, the University of South Carolina, to move on to the finals. That’s where the Cats ran into familiar territory. Facing a Tennessee team they al-
ready beat in Knoxville not a month ago, the opportunity was set for UK to disrupt its four-year trend and finally win that coveted SEC title. But the opportunity was lost, and UK’s direction remains the same. The Cats scratched and clawed with the Lady Volunteers, not making it easy for Tennessee to win its conference-leading 17th SEC title. UK led most of the game,
and was even up six at halftime in an effort to bring the trophy back to Lexington for the first time since 1982. But the past repeated itself, and Tennessee snagged the victory from the Cats for the third time in the past five years. Now this UK team finds itself thinking the same thing its predecessors did: What could have been? Head coach Matthew Mitchell said it best, if ever so simply, in his press conference before the team left

Faculty, students discuss Appalachia at annual symposium, art showcase Presentations include look at TV influence on stereotypes By Marjorie Kirk news@kykernel.com
The fifth annual Appalachian Research Community Symposium and Art Showcase began a new discussion on Saturday about the region, while connecting students with faculty and real-world professionals in their research fields. The event featured panels and presentations by students and faculty in the W.T. Young Library, as well as members of the Appalachian studies community around Kentucky. Presentations included a Kentucky artisan’s perspectives on manhood and a cautionary look at reality TV’s influence on stereotypes as seen on the TLC show “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.”
“A lot of kids growing up in the region don’t necessarily feel proud of it,” said Tammy Clemons, the president of the Graduate Appalachian Research Community and an anthropology doctoral student. “I think education has privileged me to have a different perspective on where I come from and appreciate it in new ways.” Many people assume a bleak picture when they hear the word Appalachia, Clemons said. The goal of the symposium was to diminish this image by displaying more efficient, intellectual and inclusive communication among some of Appalachia’s brightest researchers. The symposium was held not only to raise awareness
for the Graduate Appalachian Research Community, or Appalachian studies, but also to give opportunities to student researchers that they can’t get in a classroom.
“
A lot of kids growing up in the region don’t necessarily feel proud of it.”

President, Graduate Appalachian Research Community
“One of the things we try to do with this annual event is to create a space where Kentucky students can share their research and get some practice in terms of presenting publicly in academic circles,” Clemons said.
from the front page ANSARI Continued from page 1 ing culture, Ansari brought us to a cruel realization: We’re doing it all wrong. But his delivery made it impossible to do anything but shrug it off and laugh. For example, Ansari poked fun at the power text messaging gives women to pretend they’re always busy (which he noted is statistically impossible) or even to
FLORIDA Continued from page 1 honoring four seniors who have won 113 games in their college careers, five minutes won’t do much. “They are that good,” UK head coach John Calipari said. “And if you don’t come and play, you’re going to get smashed.” Boy, did they get smashed. Take away that run in the second half and Florida won Saturday’s game, 84-50. For 35 minutes, the Gators outscored UK by 34 points.
be totally silent (which could never happen in a face-toface conversation). Ansari then shocked the audience by returning to stage for another 10 minutes after having already received a standing ovation from the packed house. Whereas some celebrities of Ansari’s stature would never consider doing a small show for students, he proved to be down to earth by giving me more than my $15 worth, and by thanking the university profusely for se-
lecting him as the spring semester comedian. The Singletary Center was more abuzz after the show than I have seen it in four years. Ansari not only put on a hysterical performance, but he left everyone in the room with a little something to chew on. Comedy and social issues don’t always mix, but Ansari’s commentary on the wacky ways of the dating world was balanced and wildly entertaining.
Game over. The most frustrating thing for Calipari has to be the total lack of progression his team has made in four months. Playing hard in spurts, taking terrible shots, not hustling back on defense: All these are universal problems that teams face in November. UK seems to be the only one still battling itself in March. Yet somehow, everyone still sounds optimistic. Though time is running out and the only preparation left is next weekend’s SEC Tournament, players still hope their flashes of greatness can magically become
the norm. “The guys in the locker room, we all still believe,” freshman forward Julius Randle said. “But there’s a point where we have to put it into action. I think we still will.” That’s a tall task at this point. As the Cats prepare for potentially three games in three days in Atlanta, their only hope is for the players to magically implement everything they’ve failed at so far. And as UK still tries to find itself, Florida is celebrating a perfect conference season. November seems so long ago.
Often, academia is critiqued for creating “barriers instead of bridges with communities,” said Mary Beth Schmid, the symposium chair and a graduate student of anthropology. “So we hope to improve inclusive language so that community members as well as academics can all come in to the same space and talk together,” she said. “The symposium is a chance for us all to come together and collaborate to understand what research is going on,” Schmid said. In addition to completing and presenting projects, students were able to network and connect with other people in their fields. “It gives me an opportunity to perform these kinds of projects that I like doing, as well as just start the conversation between people,” said Jasper WaughQuasebarth, an anthropology doctoral student.

for the host city of the tournament in Duluth, Ga. “This is a hard tournament to win. It’s very challenging each and every year we go.” Coming out on top out of the SEC is a very daunting task, especially when you have to face a history-laden program like Tennessee three different times. But for one reason or another, UK can’t accomplish this task. Not in 2010, 2011,
2013 and now 2014. Until it does, the UK Hoops program and its fans will continue to wonder when their time to celebrate will come. Until the Cats break the trend, the program will continue to be seen as one that can’t get over the championship hump. And they’ll continue to hear the cliché surrounding their team: So close, yet so far.

We need to step up, demand worker fairness MATT YOUNG
Contributing columnist
The U.S. has the best health care in the world. Foreign dignitaries and royalty come to us when they need treatment because they can’t get the same quality of care or the same ground-breaking treatments in their own countries. More major health care advances have come out of our country in our generation than all other countries. But the U.S. is nowhere near the top of the list on many major health indexes. We are 51st in life expectancy, 43nd in infant mortality — having about 25,000 babies die each year, not including abortions — and 49th in maternal mortality rate. We have more strokes, more cancer and more infectious disease than most other Western developed nations. Despite being one of the lowest risk factor nations and ranking third in health care spending, our health outcomes are not what one would expect, and certainly not as good as they should be. So with the best doctors, hospitals and medical
technology in the world, why do we lag behind developing nations like Iran and Cuba in major health categories? Stress. Americans as a people do not get to enjoy life. Among developed nations, the U.S. ranked 14 out of 36 for life satisfaction and 28 of 36 in employees working excessive hours. We are outside the top 10 of happiest countries in the world, according to a list released by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. We’re also not in the top 10 for lowest stress levels. This is not because we are a nation that simply won’t enjoy life, it is because we are a nation that can’t. The U.S. lags far behind on workers’ rights. Our minimum wage, in real terms, is lower than it was when the baby boomers were working, student loan debt has now reached more than $1 trillion, and jobs are still so hard to find that the workforce participation rate is the lowest it has been since 1978. But Americans tolerate this and tell themselves it is the way it is. They are too afraid of losing their current job to demand better. Meanwhile, corporate
profits are at an all-time high, making more and more money off of each employee they underpay. Americans have to work longer than other nations that have the privileges we have just to make ends meet. Most Americans do not have the money or the time to decompress and put living back into life. We have built the best nation to ever exist, and we deserve better. Our generation needs to step up and demand worker fairness from our government. We need to ask why we work harder for less. We can turn these vital health statistics around with mandated paid vacation, sick leave, maternity and paternity leave, a fair minimum wage and more fair overtime laws. We lag way too far behind other nations in these categories. Workers make this nation rich and do not get a fair return on their investment. The middle class deserves better. It is time to take the American dream out of the history books and back into the economy. It is time to demand that our representatives put our interests first.
