Men’s soccer falls to Oakland in NCAAs SPORTS

Junior goalkeeper Callum Irving tries in vain to deflect Oakland’s first goal away during the second half of UK’s 20 loss to Oakland in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at the Bell Soccer Complex.
The cold and brittle temperatures at the Bell Soccer Complex did no favor to the UK men’s soccer team as it lost 2-0 to Oakland in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The Cats end their season at 10-6-4 on the year. “Disappointing night, of course,” said head coach Johan Cedegren. “You have to give Oakland a lot of credit. They’re a good team with lots of juniors and seniors that have been there before. When the game got tough, I thought they excelled, and we have some work to do when it comes to mental toughness.” The Cats came into the match with their only starting senior on the roster, forward Justin Laird, unable to play because of a torn MCL suffered in the final regular season game. UK was also without the services of sophomore midfielder Napo Matsoso due to a red card suspension. After an evenly matched scoreless first half, UK’s defense broke down and allowed multiple opportunities for Oakland in the box as the Golden Grizzles had 10 shots on the night, with five of them on goal. Oakland defender Cody Archibald headed in the match’s first goal in the 55th minute after
receiving a left-side corner kick. It was the first goal UK had allowed coming in from a corner pass since its first game of the season, much to the surprise and disappointment of Cedegren. The Golden Grizzlies added an insurance goal six minutes later when the ball went through two Cat defenders’ legs and ended up in front of Oakland midfielder Gavin Hoy in the box. Hoy then dribbled past the two UK defenders who were trying to recover on the play, and shot it past junior goalkeeper Callum Irving to seal the game. Hoy said he didn’t know what to expect coming into a road match in the NCAA Tournament, but once Oakland got possession in the game, the confidence started to overtake them. “I was a little nervous going in,” Hoy said. “We started to realize we could compete with this team in the second half. We got really comfortable. That’s when the goals started flowing.” Cedegren said he was proud of how the season went overall despite the disappointing and losing efforts in the Cats’ last three games. “This will not happen again,” Cedegren said about the early tournament exit. “We’re not going to go 0-3 in the games that matter. It’s time for us to grow, develop and learn from this as a squad, but we are not sitting here again next year in the NCAA Tournament.”
UK plays 1st road game Classic left out students KEVIN ERPENBECK kerpenbeck@kykernel.com
After passing the test of three games in a stretch of six days to begin the season, UK Hoops will play its first road game when it takes on Central Michigan on Saturday. The No. 13 Cats are 3-0 to open up the year, including a comeback 74-64 victory over No. 8 Baylor on Monday. UK also beat Appalachian State 111-74 in the home opener and Morehead State 91-62 on Wednesday. Head coach Matthew Mitchell said it was important for the team to get three games under its belt to see how well it prepared for the early-season test. “Very tough stretch we came out of,” Mitchell said. “We found out a few things about our team, so now it is going to be great to have a couple days of practice. We need to practice badly, so I am looking forward to getting in the gym and getting better.” Central Michigan won its home opener
against Massachusetts in the only game it has played on the season. The Chippewas returned four starters from a 2013-14 team that went 20-12 and won the Mid-American Conference West Division. Senior guard Crystal Bradford won the MAC Player of the Year award last season after leading the conference in rebounds per game with 12.2. She also became the first player in the history of the MAC to record multiple triple-doubles in one season. Senior guard Jennifer O’Neill has excelled in the early portion of the season, leading the Cats in points in all three games. The 5-foot-6 guard is averaging 18.7 points per game while also dishing out three assists in each game. Despite the high output of points in the Cats’ first three games, Mitchell said it’s important to “get back to the fundamentals,” especially on defense, where Mitchell says the

Game takes college out of college sports
Champions Classic presents itself differently than any other college basketball event, including the NCAA Tournament and the Final Four. And the reasons why make me love and hate what it has become. The two-game, fourteam event is great for teams and for television. ESPN gets to run its own event with exclusive coverNICK GRAY age that includes cross proKernel Columnist motion for some of its best personalities (Kirk Herbstreit) and some of its most suffocating (Stephen A. Smith). I'm sure on television that viewers heard a lot of noise from Smith, Herbstreit and other people who cover college basketball
on television. The Champions Classic got all the face time on ESPN Tuesday all evening. What viewers didn't hear was students. If someone watched in the arena, they probably could have heard the vague noise of Michigan State students from the rafters. They were there, stashed high above the arena and were rendered voiceless. They could have been screaming at their televisions in East Lansing. The Cameron Crazies had school on Tuesday at Duke, so I would have been surprised to see a host of Blue Devil students regardless of the access that could have been given. But, given the chance, I bet Kansas would have brought a good amount of students for a student section in the corner akin to the setup that the NCAA has at the Final SEE CLASSIC PAGE 6 11.21.14 | Timeout | 3
UK must improve to advance SPORTS
As the digital numbers on the time clock neared the end of overtime, the future of UK’s NCAA Tournament run began to look cloudy. Neither the Cats nor their opponent, Southern Illinois UniversityEdwardsville, had scored a goal all game, and both teams prepared themselves for a penalty shootout to deKEVIN cide the winner of the ERPENBECK match. Kernel Columnist Penalty kicks can be unpredictable; one errant angle in a shot can seal a loss for a team immediately. Fortunately for the Cats, it was SIUE who made that mistake in its first penalty kick shot, missing the goal wide right. UK went on make all of its shots and escaped its first-round tournament game with 4-2 penalty shootout win

over the Cougars. Although the Cats continue their tournament run as they head to Charlottesville, Va., to face Arizona State in the second round, they should look back on the game that almost ended it as an important learning tool. No team wants to go to penalty kicks to decide a match (SIUE head coach Derek Burton admitted to coming into the game with that exact strateg.) But the way the Cats played in the game against the Cougars can be vastly improved upon, and will need to be if they want to beat Arizona State on Friday. “They made life very difficult for us,” said head coach Jon Lipsitz about SIUE. “We were frustrated and played poorly in the first half, and didn’t create many opportunities. I thought we played better in the second half, but it
was definitely the kind of test we needed.” On paper, the Cats outperformed the Cougars, winning the shot differential 31-4 and had a 17-0 corner kick advantage on the match. But UK lacked the finishing touch it needed on its chances in the box and their shots got weaker as time wore on. A first-round game like this teaches the Cats that no matter how much they out-perform a team in regulation, it means nothing if they can’t capitalize on their chances. They had better improve, because unlike SIUE, Arizona State can match up with a lot of players on UK’s roster. If the first half of the game against the Cougars is duplicated on Friday, or if the Cats again fail to finish their chances on net, UK’s NCAA Tournament run may end by the 90th minute of regulation.
Cats finishing season SPORTS
UK looks to restart winning streak MADISON TINDER sports@kykernel.com
Mississippi State, Auburn, and Arkansas stand between the Cats and the NCAA Tournament as they begin their final road games of the season. The Cats (23-5,12-3 SEC) fell to No. 6 Florida last weekend in a four-set match. The game prepared the Cats to finalize their victories in regular season and enter the tournament on a high note. As the tournament gets closer, seniors Lauren O’Conner, Jackie Napper and Alyssa Gergins are close to ending ttheir careers. Napper has earned multiple SEC Defensive Player of the Week honors this season. Last year, the Cats ended their season against Michigan State in the second round of NCAA tournament play at Memorial Coliseum. UK still has three more regular season games before the tournament starts. The first matchup is against the Bulldogs in Starkville, Miss., and the Cats hope to continue Mississippi State’s 12-game SEC losing streak. The teams are no strangers; the Cats have dominated the Bulldogs in the all-time series. UK holds a 43-2 record over Mississippi State and is 14-2 in road contests. No.15 UK will face the Bulldogs at 2 p.m. on Sunday.

Four. Michigan State certainly would. And UK students had a three-hour drive to make, certainly a short enough ride for a game against a top-five team. At times, the atmosphere suffered because of the lack of vocal students on Tuesday, most notably during the Duke-Michigan State game. The arena was about two-thirds full of Kansas and UK fans, with Michigan State ranking third and Duke sliding along the rear of the pack. To say the atmosphere was dead, with a game of two teams that have wonderful student sections and overall atmospheres themselves, is an understatement. It did not feel like college basketball on Tuesday, especially in the first game. It felt too much like an NBA game — a lot of people with a lot of money showing up, with some vocal pockets around the arena. Tuesday felt important, but

team is out of position because of the lack of reps and the inexperience of the front court. “We just haven’t had those kind of practices here lately. We have been in game prep mode (during the six-day stretch),” Mitchell said. “We are counting on three freshman post players and our defense. We aren’t great leapers, but we are strong and can box you

Students and staff celebrated the fifth Tobacco-free Tailgate with sandwiches, s’mores and hot cocoa Thursday afternoon. The UK Tobacco Task Force, University Health Service, Student Health Advisory Council and the College of Pharmacy decorated student health organizations’ booths on the Rose Street Walkway with colorful balloons. Attendees made their own treats and visited a photo booth. UK cheerleaders and the Wildcat mascot visited the event and interacted with students. “We’re here to celebrate such a good cause,” said Rebecca Huffman, Ph.D, while sipping hot chocolate with friends. “It’s so much better than five years ago when you could smell smoke all over campus. Now it’s fresh.” The tobacco-free tailgate marks the anniversary of UK’s institution of the current tobacco-free policy. Health education and marketing coordinator Fadyia Lowe said student turnout was good despite the cold. Many of the student health organiza-
tions on campus work together in a wellness network to support each other’s causes and to improve overall health on UK’s campus. Mindy Ickes, director of Tobacco-free Take Action!, said that TFTA works with the tailgate every year to help support the policy and promote being tobacco-free. Ickes passed out brochures that provided information about treatment plans and ecigarettes. TFTA also helped sponsor the photo booth, Ickes said. Other campus health organizations with booths included the Violence Intervention and Prevention Center (VIP), Student Wellness and Campus Recreation. The SHAC had a game of Tobacco Jeopardy that included a free t-shirt giveaway. The game contained facts and statistics about tobacco products and smoking. One question asked students to equate Hookah useage to cigarette use. According to the advisory council, one 15-minute session of Hookah is equivalent to smoking 100-200 cigarettes. “I wanted to get involved with something healthy,” said dentistry freshman Kelli Duncan, a SHAC member. “The tailgate is really (educational for) students.”
