Obama sweeps Northeast, West Coast to top Republican challenger Romney MCCLATCHY TRIBUNE

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Tuesday won a second term in the White House, defeating Republican challenger Mitt Romney in a hard-fought election that served as a referendum on who could better ease Americans’ economic pain and uncertainty.

Obama marched across the nation, scoring victory after victory in battleground states where the economy had mounted just enough of a comeback to convince voters to give him four more years.

He held onto the coalition that led him to victory in 2008: women, Latinos, African-Americans and young people. Romney, seeking to become the first Mormon to win the presidency, was able to win only two states Obama had won last time, Indiana and North Carolina.

The second Democrat to win a

second term since World War II, Obama won 25 states, sweeping the Northeast and West Coast states and winning most of the Rust Belt battlegrounds, including Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Romney won 22 states, largely dependably Republican states across the South and into Texas and the Great Plains.

The popular vote was another matter, with the possibility that Obama would win the Electoral College and the presidency while losing the popular vote — the same way George W. Bush won in 2000.

Both candidates had about 49 percent, with 72 percent of precincts reporting.

“This happened because of you,” Obama told supporters via his Twitter account soon after he was declared the winner. “Thank you.”

Grijalva keeps seat, other races too close to call night, held the lead at 50.23 percent to Ron Barber’s 49.74 percent, according to reports by 209 of the 216 precincts. Barber took the seat in a special election in June after the departure of former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

Student voters wrap up election night with viewing party in union KYLE MITTAN Arizona Daily Wildcat

Students turned out to a viewing party in Cellar Bistro as ASA continued its initiative to educate students about the election.

The Arizona Students’ Association hosted the viewing party after its efforts to register as many students as possible culminated on the night of the election. Although the viewing didn’t fill seats in the restaurant, about half of the restaurant had full tables.

The association registered about 7,000 students throughout the state, with about 2,000 from the UA, said Katy Murray, the Associated Students of the University of Arizona president, adding that it was “the largest student registration drive Arizona has ever had.”

“We got a lot of students out to the polls, and I think really got students excited to be a part of the political process,” she said. “So I’m glad it’s finally here now.”

While some students didn’t know about the event before they came to the restaurant, they decided to stick around for the viewing, including

Meghan Tubaugh, a junior studying molecular and cellular biology who had gone to the polls earlier on Tuesday.

“I actually hadn’t heard about it until I came down here,” she said, “But I think that it’s a good idea. I think voting’s important, it’s good to get involved with that kind of stuff.”

Joseph Howdeschell, a prepharmacy sophomore, said he comes to Cellar Bistro frequently and thought the viewing was a good idea.

“We hang out here a lot … and there’s free stuff, which is always nice,” he said about the T-shirt handouts supporting the initiative to vote.

Jordan King, a vice chairman on ASA’s board of directors, said the event was important as a way of showing students how their votes played out after months of encouraging students to get registered.

“Now is their chance to see how their vote counted amongst everyone else in the country,” he said. “It just is a chance for students to get to see the overall effect and reaction of their voice by casting their vote.”

Provost: Money to fund raises still limited BRITTNY MEIJA Arizona Daily Wildcat

A town hall meeting allowed the UA provost to address the campus community on the guesswork of predicting the university budget.

Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost Andrew Comrie answered questions at the monthly staff advisory council meeting about work on strategic planning as well as his responsibilities in dealing with on-campus issues. After a brief introduction, Comrie opened the floor for questions from audience members.

A particular focus of the meeting centered on staff raises, but Comrie also answered questions regarding performance evaluations and his decision to apply for a permanent position as provost.

When discussing staff raises, Comrie explained the difficulty in getting resources for the university to accomplish that. He listed the three big income sources as research, tuition and state aid.

However, because research money is restricted funding, Comrie said tuition and state allocation would help with raises. Additionally, recent budget cuts led to a drop in what the university received from the state, Comrie said.

“Now the question is, ‘How do I find another 10 or 20 or whatever million dollars to fund a raise?’” Comrie said.

Comrie added that it’s the president’s responsibility as well as his own to speak with the Arizona Board of Regents, who in turn could speak with the legislature to ask for more money.

Although Comrie commented that tuition has seen huge increases over the past few years, he also said further increases might have to be considered.

“We have really taxed the students hard on tuition in the last few years and I think there’s less political will to do a whole lot of tuition,” Comrie said, “But that has to be in the discussions as well.”

Comrie also commented on guesswork when it comes to what next year’s income will look like. The budget is made accordingly, with guesses about what state income will be a year from now, as well as what tuition might be.

Comrie asked audience members to give their best guess about the money that would be allocated, which he said is “as good as the president’s.”

He said this is the type of guesswork that happens when planning a raise.

“Now you can understand the challenges of trying to do this,” Comrie said. “We want to do it, but only when we can make sure it’s not a hollow promise.

Someone then asked about the issue of supervisors who fail to complete performance evaluations, which could impact raises for

PRESIDENT from page 1

Romney had not yet conceded early Wednesday. On Tuesday, he told reporters on his campaign plane that “I feel like we put it all on the field. We left nothing in the locker room. We fought to the very end and I think that’s why we’ll be successful.” He said the outcome may not go his way. “Nothing is certain in politics,” he said.

Obama took office in January 2009 with a mandate to revive an economy still struggling to recover from the Great Recession of 20072009, the worst downturn since the Great Depression. Six of 10 voters Tuesday said the economy was the most important issue, well ahead of health care or foreign policy. Three of four voters said the economy remained poor or not so good.

Obama touted the economy’s steady progress on his watch; Romney cited stubbornly high unemployment and mounting federal debt as he argued the recovery’s pace was too slow.

In the exit polls, slightly more than half said Obama was more in touch with people like them, compared with 44 percent for Romney.

The president will face the status quo in Congress.

Republicans held their majority in the House of Representatives, according to projections. All 435 voting seats were up Tuesday.

Democrats retained control of the Senate. Republicans had needed a net gain of four seats.

Turnout was reported heavy, particularly in swing states as well as storm-battered New York and New Jersey. Experts still expected it to remain below 2008 levels, finding voters less engaged. About 32 million people had voted early, either in person or by mail.

The president spent Election Day in Chicago. He stopped by his campaign’s Hyde Park field office in south Chicago to greet workers and call voters. He called six Wisconsin voters, then talked to supporters at the office.

He congratulated Romney for a “spirited campaign” and said he felt good about the results. “We feel confident we’ve got the votes to win, that it’s going to depend ultimately on whether those votes turn out,” Obama said.

Later Tuesday, Obama was player-coach for a quick basketball game. Among his team members was former Chicago Bulls great Scottie Pippen. Obama’s team won by about 20 points.

Romney voted in Belmont, Mass., and then made hastily scheduled campaign swings to Ohio and Pennsylvania. Ohio was considered crucial for Romney; no Republican has been elected president without winning the Buckeye State.

some employees. Comrie said it is necessary to ensure every employee receives feedback.

“We should have performance evaluations and feedback just for their own sake, because that’s how you run a good organization,” Comrie said. “People should know their staff and how they’re doing. It’s a piece of effective communication.”

Comrie discussed the possibility of sending a memo regarding performance evaluations, but also commented on the benefit of employees going to their

supervisors and asking for feedback on their work.

As the meeting drew to a close, Comrie talked about his decision to apply for provost. Although he was not initially able to be a candidate for the position, now, with Hart’s approval for an interim provost to apply, Comrie has begun the application process.

“I come to work every day looking forward to whatever particular problem I can solve or whatever opportunity we can take advantage of,” Comrie said. “I love what I’ve been doing the last few months.”

Students share secrets at sold-out event SARAH- JAYNE SIMON Arizona Daily Wildcat

Students and community members poured into the Grand Ballroom in the Student Union Memorial Center as Frank Warren, founder of PostSecret walked onto the stage Tuesday night.

PostSecret is an ongoing community mail art project, in which people mail their secrets anonymously on a homemade postcard to Warren’s home address.

Warren then selects secrets and posts them on the PostSecret website, or uses them in his PostSecret books.

“I always had this interior life myself and felt that others would have these feelings as well,” Warren said. “I was shocked when it resonated with thousands.”

PostSecret Live was sponsored by the Associated Students of the University of Arizona’s Wildcat Events Board and was completely sold out.

Few stuck around after 10 p.m. to await local results and discuss the presidential turnout. Mercer said early on that she had “a feeling that we’re going to have a new president.” Later, she said Obama’s victory “hurts.”

“We cannot afford four more years of Barack Hussein Obama,” she said.

“He is going to destroy our country.”

Mercer added that she was proud of her campaign, which she ran without millions of dollars in donations from big companies and with unpaid volunteers.

“My campaign was 100 percent grassroots,” Mercer said. “All the money that we raised was from people. It was not from the big donors.”

Mark Napier, the associate director of operations for UA Parking and Transportation services and the Republican candidate for Pima County sheriff said although he was nervous awaiting for results, he was willing to accept whatever happened.

“There’s still a whole lot of votes out there to be counted,” Napier said late Tuesday night. “We ran a campaign we can be proud of and whatever turns out turns out.”

Unofficial results show Democratic candidate Clarence Dupnik ahead of Napier 50 percent to 46.98 percent.

“I relate to the secrets,” McIntosh said. “I read them every Sunday when they’re posted.”

Community Chatter Did you vote? Why or why not?

“I voted for Romney, for the kids.

I think the most important platform of the debate was the economic position of this country. Medicare and Medicaid is 70 percent of our gross debt every single year and it’s going to increase to 90 percent by 2015 or like 2020 and I don’t really like that.”

-Clark Gilliland, undeclared freshman

“Yes I voted today because I feel it’s part of living in the United States and we’re lucky to have the right to exercise our vote.”

-Sheila Kaiser, finance junior

“No, because both of the candidates are terrible. Long live Ron Paul.”

-Jonathan Vale, plant science freshman

“Yes I did. I think people worked really hard in order to have us be able to have the right to vote in this country, and it was my first time being of age to be able to vote, so I took that opportunity and let my voice be heard. I’m excited to see who wins. I think it’ll be really close.”

Obama has work cut out for him, It’s over: but America’s best days lie ahead EDITORIAL

So what can you do next? T I f at any point during the last several months you said, “If Barack Obama wins the election, I’m fleeing the country,” please pack your bags and get on the next flight out.

Still with us? Good. Grab a chair and settle down. You’re stuck here, so you might as well make the best of it.

We get it. You’re disappointed.

Personally, we’re disappointed that Proposition 204 — an initiative that would have extended a 1-cent state sales tax that would have provided state funding for education — was voted down. Everyone is allowed to be disappointed.

But if all you’re going to do is run your mouth (or take It doesn’t to the Internet), you might as well matter how go talk to a wall. you voted.

You’re not doing That was anyone any good. yesterday.

Regardless of Today, your what you had job is to hoped the election keep moving outcome would forward. be, compared to what it actually turned out to be, it’s over now.

The tweets describing the death of your faith in the country will not change who won or what passed last night. No amount of Facebook statuses in which you threaten to move will launch all of us into an alternate universe where the exact opposite happened.

Have you ever even been to Canada?

In short, stop whining about things that you cannot change. You do not get a do-over. And if you’re going to threaten to do something, actually do it. We’re sure someone will drive you to the airport.

Maybe your guy won the vote last night. Maybe he lost. Four years from now, you’ll root for someone else.

Maybe they’ll win or maybe they won’t. One or the other has to happen sometimes. That’s just how democracy works.

On the bright side, at least we can be done with the obnoxious stream of negative campaign ads now.

But seriously. It doesn’t matter how you voted. That was yesterday.

Today, your job is to keep moving forward. There is still work to do, and if all you do is threaten to leave the country, then you’re not any better than the candidate you were rooting against.

Make your disappointment work for you. Be productive about it. Be the loyal opposition.

Even while at odds with the majority, the minority has to remain loyal to the nation.

Although who plays the role of the loyal opposition changes with every election, the duty stays the same.

You cannot change what the election decided. That’s not how this government works.

Keep the essential values of your country at heart. Stand up for your convictions. Hold the people in government accountable for their words and actions. Ask them the hard questions.

Get used to it or get out.

his election season has been a long and tiresome one — just ask Colorado phenomenon Abigael Evans.

The 4-year-old star of a YouTube video gone viral was on her way to the grocery store with her mother when she was reduced to tears by a particularly grueling NPR segment about “Bronco ‘Bama” and Mitt Romney.

It’s probably safe to assume that we’ve all felt that way at some point. After nearly two years of wall-to-wall election coverage and political advertisements up the wazoo, even the most seasoned political junkies should be fighting the urge to sob uncontrollably.

Now that our votes have been counted and the proverbial die has been cast, we can all heave a sigh of relief and revel in the fact that our country just elected the next leader of the free world.

Barack Obama has his work cut out for him — not just domestically, but internationally as well. The U.S. economy, while it has improved marginally in the past four years, is still in need of effective stewardship, and the international system is more volatile than ever.

America is in need of an effectual and judicious president who will lead the country in to the future.

ENERGY

Clean energy should be a top priority for the next administration.

If you need proof that global warming has reached a tipping point, look no further than the extent of the damage done by Hurricane Sandy, the most powerful hurricane to hit the Northeast region in a generation.

At the annual meeting of the Geological Society of America held earlier this week, scientists agreed that although climate change had not caused the storm, climate models suggest storms like Sandy will become more intense as the planet warms.

If the nation doesn’t make a serious effort to cut carbon emissions, there will be more Hurricane Sandys to come.

For the next four years, we’ll need a president who will sustain and build upon the progress that we’ve made while addressing the nation’s debt in a way that doesn’t place an exorbitant tax burden on middle class workers.

FOREIGN POLICY

Although coverage of the election has succeeded in shoving international crises to the backburner, foreign policy and international relations are still of high priority.

The death of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens in Libya is proof that America’s diplomatic inroads in the Middle East have yet to bear fruit. What’s Still more pressing is the state of more, ongoing unrest in Syria, the threat of America’s education system. nuclear Iran and America’s deteriorating Although U.S. universities are among the relationship with Israel is anything but highest ranked in the world, we still trail most western industrialized countries in the reassuring.

POLICE BEAT

Presented by the UA Alumni Association

MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat

Blame game, wrong name, shame

University of Arizona Police Department officers went to the University of Arizona Medical Center in response to a report of an intoxicated man refusing to leave the lobby at 2:15 a.m. on Nov. 3.

The man, who was identified by his CatCard, complied with officers when asked to sit down for questioning. He told police he’d been walking to Yavapai Residence Hall when a security guard pulled him inside the hospital lobby and would not allow him to leave.

Throughout the conversation, officers noticed the man’s breath smelled like alcohol and that he slurred his speech.

Initially, he refused to tell UAPD officers if he’d drank beer or liquor earlier, then he denied drinking altogether. The student then told police he’d consumed alcohol at an unidentified party near UAMC. The hospital security guard told police the student had run into the lobby, knocking on the locked surgery waiting room and asking to speak to the woman inside at 1:55 a.m.

According to the guard, the student had said he knew the woman working behind the desk as “Stacey or Tracey,” which she denied. The guard then asked the student to leave, but after his refusal, called UAPD. UAPD cited and released the student for charges of minor in possession, and, due to his lack of medical distress, warned him not to return as he left on foot. Following this, the student reappeared saying the medical staff had taken his cellphone.

Both the security guard and police were unable to locate his phone and the man left again.

He saw the sign

A UAPD officer arrested and released a man for reportedly kicking over signs on First Street and Mountain Avenue at 8:02 p.m. on Nov 3.

Police located a man in his 20s fitting the description witnesses initially gave sitting in an old, white sedan on the south side of First Street. The man identified himself with an Arizona driver’s license.

Other officers were told to search for a possibly involved woman in the bordering area. An officer found the woman walking her small dog in the surrounding area near the car.

The man told police he was driving from McDonald’s on Speedway Boulevard when his car began to run out of gas.

As he turned south onto Mountain Avenue, attempting to locate a parking spot, his power steering turned off and he ran out of gas. In frustration, he got out of his car and kicked a sign before pushing his vehicle to the front of Pima Residence Hall.

The girlfriend additionally said she’d seen her boyfriend knock the sign over. Officers asked the man to empty his pockets to check for any drugs or weapons, but had none.

Prior to being found in his car, the man said he attempted walking down First Street in hopes of getting either gas or aid from several people. Upon receiving no assistance, however, he “gave them the finger.”

The man was cited for an interference with official traffic-control device and was told to move his car.

UA GRADUATE SCHOOL DAY 2012 SPONSORED BY UA CAREER SERVICES

Wednesday, November 7, 1 p.m.-4 p.m.

Student Union Memorial Center 3rd floor ballroom What Can You Expect at UA Graduate School Day 2012?

By Susan L. Miller-Pinhey, Marketing & Special Events Manager, UA Career Services With USC, UCLA, University of Chicago, University of Pennsylvania, Northwestern University, Creighton, Columbia and Pepperdine (just to name a few!) making their way to our campus to talk to interested students, it may just be time for you to get serious about your post-bachelor’s academic plans.

If you are considering continuing your education and pursuing a graduate degree, or if you are rock solid in your conviction that graduate studies are for you, UA Graduate School Day can help pave the way. By attending UA Graduate School Day, you will have the opportunity to talk to several different graduate schools and learn more about the programs they offer.

The event is free. Just bring your CatCard and your inquiring mind ready to ask those insightful questions of the college reps present. You should not only be ready to ask questions about prospective programs but also see that you are prepared to answer questions about your interests and what you can bring to their campus.

Taking the time to prepare for the event will go a long way to helping you get the most out of it. The research you do depends on where you are in the graduate school

selection process. Assuming you already know what your interests are (a good start!) one of the most important aspects of your research will be selecting the programs best suited to your interests and career goals.

The following information will give you a basic blueprint regarding preparing for the fair, working the fair and follow up required after the fair.

Before the Fair: Prepare.

Before the fair, review the list of who is attending. Review their catalogs, directories and websites to get a sense of the universities and their programs. Log into our Career Services’ website at www.career.arizona.edu, click on that Grad Fair icon near the bottom of the page.

To get a list of all institutions attending the UA Graduate School Day, along with links to their profiles, look on the right hand side of the screen and click on the appropriate section under “Who’s Coming.” You’ll be able to find out what exactly the schools are recruiting for. Some are more general in nature, representing their entire university and some are very specific. Using this information, decide which schools interest you and who you want to target at the fair. Once you have the basic

information on participating schools and departments, rank the schools according to your preference.

Word to the Wise A note of caution…If the Immunobiology Department from Big State U is attending, chances are they won’t have details about the Creative Writing program. You can still get information about the campus in general, the town it’s located in, the local weather and more general insights into what it would be like to go to school there, but specifics about your particular program may require further inquiry and research.

Working the Fair If you are limited as far as time, visit your highest priority schools first to ensure you have adequate time to spend with them. Allow enough time to talk to your favorite school’s representatives as long as necessary.

If you have the luxury of devoting as much time as needed to talk to everyone on your list during this event, you might consider saving your most desirable schools for last so you can talk to some of the other (desirable but not MOST desirable) schools first and get a feel for how best to present your skills and

interests to graduate school recruiters. Practice makes perfect and by working your way backwards from lesser preferred to most preferred programs, you’ll be improving and honing your networking skills as you go.

Bring a list of questions that will help you make your decision. Questions should address the following: Costs Location Course offerings Program requirements Facilities Program reputation Financial aid Student life Faculty Be prepared to answer questions from the representative regarding what your goals are for graduate school and your interests.

Before you Wrap it Up Be sure to get the grad school representative’s card so you can follow up with them after the event. Having a personal contact at schools you are interested in will be a huge help to getting the information you need to make a good decision.

We hope you’ll plan on joining us at the UA Graduate School Day Wednesday, November 7th, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Student Union Memorial Center 3rd floor ballroom. See you there!

A Very Different Degree The following excerpt outlining how a graduate degree differs from your undergraduate degree is from The Princeton Review.

It looks the same. The stadium, the library, the bell tower, the professors, the classrooms, even the coffeehouses are all there. The university where you attend graduate school most likely appears to be very similar to your undergraduate institution. But just as you can’t judge a book by its cover, you can’t judge a school by the edifice.

Nearly everything about being a graduate student differs from the undergraduate experience.

Preparing for these differences will be a key to your success.

One of the major distinctions between being an undergraduate and a graduate student is the level of competition. Graduate schools are highly selective, and many programs accept less than ten percent of the applications they receive. This means only the best students with the highest grades and test scores get in. While you might have been at the top of your undergraduate class, as a graduate student you most likely find that you are merely average amongst a group of driven and intelligent peers. You will have to work harder to excel in your new academic community.

The workload in graduate school is intense and demanding. You will be expected to read more, write more, talk more frequently in class, and do more research than you did as an undergraduate. Fortunately, you can learn how to study with greater efficiency, set priorities, and execute effective time management strategies.

In an effort to address the growing need for highly prepared and effective teachers, we carefully and strategically rethought the curriculum of our long-standing, highly regarded Master of Arts in Teaching program and recently developed a Master’s of Education in Advanced Instruction program. We looked at the issues teachers are currently dealing with in today’s classrooms and had an honest discussion about how to address these problems of practice.

With challenging MBA and specialized master’s degree programs the University of San Francisco is sure to have the program that fits your life. No mat-

and World Report rankings. With 33 faculty members elected to the National Academy of Engineering, and over 45 others who have earned Presidential Early Career, Presidential Young Investigator or NSF/NIH Young Investigator awards, the school ranks among the nation’s very best in these important metrics of a school’s present and future strength.

It is the mission of the Graduate College at Arizona State University to promote and support the integrity, quality, and vitality of ASU graduate programs including master’s degrees, professional degrees and doctoral degrees. Our goal is to insure university-wide standards of quality, access, and equity in graduate programs and promote the interests of ASU’s graduate students and graduate education within the state, national, and international arenas.

The UCLA Anderson Master of Financial Engineering (MFE) Program equips graduates with the combination of skills the industry needs from quantitative finance professionals. The curriculum, taught by renowned faculty, integrates mathematical, statistical, and programming tools with finance theory. Students complete an internship and independent-study project in addition to studying pricing models, data analysis techniques and quantitative investment strategies for equities, fixed income, currency, commodities, derivatives and other financial instruments. The program trains students for positions as quantitative researchers, desk strategists, risk analysts, asset managers, and quantitative traders at the world’s leading banks, insurance companies, hedge funds and corporate treasury departments.

What to Expect from Career Day Reps This is a heads up regarding the reps you will meet at the Graduate Fair this week.

Think about it. If you’re interested in pursuing a graduate degree in Microbiology and University of Somewhere Cool’s Dance Department attends, you can’t expect the representatives from Dance to answer questions specific to Anthropology…or Microbiology either for that matter. You can, however, get good information about the school itself and maybe a contact to get in touch with later in your specific area of interest.

The Graduate School Fair is an opportunity to gather information about programs across the country plus some international opportunities as well. Almost 100 different programs have signed on for this year’s UA Graduate School Day. These are programs interested in finding the cream of the potential UA grad student crop. Is that you?

There’s a wide range of programs and something for just about everyone. Representatives from across the country will be here looking for students interested in pursuing advanced degrees in everything from Accounting and Architecture to Art and Design, and that’s just the A’s.

Some schools take multiple tables, each concentrating on different programs. Our friends up north in Tempe are sending reps not just from their General Graduate College but also program-specific reps from their Biological Design

The mission of our MBA program is to provide students with a relevant and rigorous background in business subject matter, to increase student problemsolving and critical analysis skills, and to develop the next generation of business leaders. Our MBA curriculum has been streamlined to provide the knowledge and tools necessary to compete in today’s global business environment in an innovative and cost-effective one-year program.

Freshman recruits look to make impact on Arizona swim team EVAN ROSENFELD Arizona Daily Wildcat

After Arizona’s swimming program went undefeated in dual matches and produced 14 individual and three relay championships, head coach Eric Hansen looked to capitalize on that success and add more depth to the women’s swim team.

Hansen managed to pull in the No. 1 recruit in the nation — Bonnie Brandon — along with Emma Schoettmer and Leticia Lelli.

“It’s amazing,” Schoettmer said. “I love all of my teammates and we all get along really well. It’s like a family, and it’s a really nice environment to be a part of.”

Hansen said he has been impressed with the class so far.

“I think they have all adjusted really well,” Hansen said. “They have been contributors already and it really seems that they feel at home here. They have been having a lot of fun. It’s all about what we do as a team, and they are an integral part of that. I expect them to contribute in any way possible.”

As a child, Schoettmer’s mother signed her up for swimming lessons because she had “too much energy,” she said.

She swam for Center Grove High School in Greenwood, Ind., where she became a state champion in the 100 breaststroke while subsequently tyler besh/arizona Daily Wildcat earning All-State honors from 2009-12.

EMMA SCHOETTMER hails from Greenwood, Ind., where she was a state champion in the 100-meter breaststroke.

“I have changed my stroke a little bit,” Schoettmer said. “I’ve made a lot of little changes in the time I’ve been here and I believe that [the coaches] have helped me.”

“It felt good,” Brandon said. “Four is a lot, and it is definitely an accomplishment. I am At the age of 14, Brandon made her first Olympic Trials cut. very proud to have won those honors.”

“It was so great to know that I could go to trials as a 14-year-old,” Brandon said.

She holds a state record in the 100 freestyle and was state champion in the 200 individual Brandon swam for Cherry Creek High School in Centennial, Colo., where she was a medley and 500 freestyle. She also swam for Mission Aurora Colorado Swimming. four-time All-American and MVP. “She was the best high school swimmer to come out of the state of Colorado,” MACS head coach Andy Niemann said. “Bonnie was always focused and a very diligent worker. She’s always wanted to compete, and has the true desire to race.”

Brandon said the family atmosphere and seasoned coaching staff at Arizona was what led her to the UA. “I loved the feeling I got here when I came to visit,” Brandon said. “The energy was perfect and the combined men’s and women’s team was exactly what I was looking for.”

This year, Brandon said she wants to improve on her 200 and 400 intermediate medley times as well as her time in the 200 freestyle.

“College swimming has definitely been different,” Brandon said. “I’ve had to get used to this training. Coming from a distance background, this kind of training is new to me. I have been going through an adaptation period and getting used to everything. I enjoy it.”

Lelli swam for Chaparral High School in Phoenix where she was presented with All-State honors three times. She subsequently was honored as an AllAmerican during her junior year.

“It was really cool,” Lelli said. “I felt really proud of myself and was very happy with my hard work.”

Lelli competed as a semifinalist during the Canadian Olympic Trials this past year.

“Adjusting was hard at first,” Lelli said. “It has gotten easier and I have tyler besh/arizona Daily Wildcat gotten used to putting this amount of work in. It feels nice to be here with BONNIE BRANDON was a four-time All-American and MVP in high school and holds a California high school state record in the 100-meter my other teammates and I can’t wait to continue competing.” freestyle.

W-Hoops brings Calamity into assistant coaching job iMAN HAMDAN Arizona Daily Wildcat

After former associate head coach Sue Darling left to take the head coaching position at Northern Arizona University this summer, the Wildcats’ coaching staff had to make a few adjustments.

Brandy Manning moved to the associate head coach position, leaving a vacancy for one of two assistant coaching positions.

Calamity McEntire snatched up the opportunity.

Head coach Niya Butts said she feels fortunate to have McEntire on her coaching staff.

“Calamity has been on the West Coast for several years and she is a great recruiter,” Butts said. “She will bring a lot of energy to our program.”

Prior to joining the Wildcats, McEntire served as assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for four years at Boise State.

While there, McEntire brought in five players that made all-freshman conference teams, coached 11 players who received a total of 22 Academic All-conference honors, two league all-defensive team members and two players who earned postseason all-conference honors.

Before starting her coaching career, McEntire played two seasons at Eastern Oklahoma State College where she led the Mountaineers to a No. 4 national ranking and a Region II Championship. McEntire started her coaching career early, serving as a student assistant coach for half of a season at Eastern Oklahoma State College, before transferring to the University of Tennessee to finish her undergraduate degree in education and sports management.

Even at Tennessee, McEntire couldn’t stay away from

6-foot-9 sophomore center Angelo Chol, allow him to slide over to his natural small forward position.

Against Chico State, the Wildcats got a glimpse of what sort of threat Hill can be this season. He scored 18 points on just two shots, getting 13 of his points from the charity stripe on 13-of-14 shooting, along with eight rebounds.

Kevin Parrom, who had 12 points and six rebounds against CSUC, is exemplary for how Arizona has changed from last year. To call it a year from hell for Parrom would be a gross understatement.

He was shot twice, once in the

basketball and ended up working as an equipment manager from May 2001 to July 2003.

Finally in 2004, McEntire started her assistant coaching career at Fresno State and stayed until 2006, helping the Bulldogs advance to the Women’s National Invitation Tournament.

For a change of pace, McEntire took the position of director of women’s basketball operations at UC Santa Barbara in 2007.

In her first season as assistant coach at Arizona, McEntire will work with the guards alongside co-assistant coach E.C. Hill.

“I really enjoyed the staff first of all,” McEntire said. “I think the staff has a lot of energy and since I’m a graduate from Tennessee, I’ve known coach Butts for a while. When we sat down and talked, she told me her vision for the program and I bought into it automatically.”

McEntire said she knew she would be coming into a program that had several newcomers and found it exciting to be a part of building up the young team’s dynamic.

“In the last four months, I have been very impressed with the work ethic,” McEntire said. “They have been focused on getting into great shape because obviously everyone is talking about how up tempo the level of play is and it’s going to take every one of them [to compete].”

With one game under her belt, McEntire said she finds motivation and comfort in continuing to build her relationship with every single player both on and off the court.

Senior guard Davellyn Whyte said she has been impressed with her new coach so far.

“I’ve really enjoyed working with and getting to know her,” Whyte said. “She is a great person on and off the court and I love her style of coaching.”

hand and once below the knee, his mother and grandmother both passed away and he missed the last 13 games with a broken right foot.

That was then, this is now — a sentiment that’s been echoed from Miller and throught the Wildcats roster.

“I’m just trying to be a part of greatness,” Parrom said. “I’m not worried about last year, I’m focused on this year. I’m trying to win a national championship with these guys. I’m just trying to be a leader with Solomon and Mark, and hang a banner up at McKale.”

Chol joined Tarczewski on the bench after fouling out late.

“We’ve been guiding them since the summer time,” Parrom said. “These guys are very mature for their age group.”

A part of the freshmen’s growing pains was on full display Tuesday night, though. At the start of the second half, Chico State forward Amir Carraway scored 11 of his team’s first 13 points. While the brief run was neutralized by an Arizona offensive burst, it wasn’t the first hot streak to happen. In the UA’s other preseason game, Humboldt State’s forward Alec Williams went on an 11-0 run late in the first half.

“That’s great that it happened because we learned from it,” Miller said. “But it’s a sign of things to come that our big guys have to continue to learn to play college defense. And they’re not there yet, as expected.”

Wildcats win preseason finale Led by its seniors, Arizona dominates Chico State 98-61 in last tune-up for regular season KYLE JOHNSON Arizona Daily Wildcat

Throughout the preseason, much of the talk concerning Arizona’s basketball team has revolved around its influx of young talent. In the UA’s final exhibition game on Tuesday at McKale Center, however, a 9860 victory over Division-II Chico State, it was the wily veterans who made the biggest impact.

Seniors Mark Lyons, Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom were Arizona’s three leading scorers and scored a combined 40 points on 13-for-19 shooting. The three veterans were also efficient from the line, hitting 20of-22 free throws, and they were key factors in a game in which Arizona never led by less than double-digits after the 11:08 mark in the first half.

“We’re counting on those guys to guide the ship, and if you look at our stat sheet tonight, Solomon and Mark Lyons both played like veteran players,” head coach Sean Miller said. “As the young players continue to learn and grow and get better, there are times where we are going to need our veterans.”

Tuesday night ended up being a perfect example of just that. Center Kaleb Tarczewski, who started in the first exhibition against Humboldt State, fouled out with 7:24 left in the game and didn’t have a rebound on the night.

But where the young 7-footer struggled, Hill stepped in.

Hill led the team with eight boards, converting 13-of-14 on free throws, which helped him score 18 points on just 2-for-2 shooting.

“If you watched him tonight, he really let the game come to him,” Miller said.

“He only had one turnover, he pushed the ball in transition and made people better. I thought the fact that he shot 14 free throws was indicative of when he attacked, he did it at the right time.

“He looked like a really good player tonight.”

As strong as Hill played, Lyons had an equally impressive game from the point. larry hogan/arizona Daily Wildcat He led the team in scoring with 20 points and shot 7-for-9 from the field and a perfect SENIORS MARK LYONS (left), Solomon Hill (top right) and Kevin Parrom were the driving force behind a 98-61 win against Chico State on Tuesday night.

“It’s a different feeling,” said senior forward Solomon Hill.

“Those two [exhibition] games last year were competitive all the way to the end. It’s good to get guys out there going, especially the young guys and beat a team by that type of margin.”

“It feels like he’s been around for a couple of years,” Hill said. “I have confidence in him, and so should the rest of the team.”

Head coach Sean Miller didn’t shy away from saying this team is on a better track this season than last, which ended with the UA missing the NCAA tournament for the second time in three seasons and losing in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament to Bucknell.

“It’s night and day,” Miller said. “We’re a much better team. Our attitude and chemistry is much better. It’s up to us to take where we’re at right now and go into this season and be on a quest to get better. Take every game as if it’s the only game.”

Arizona’s highly-regarded freshman quartet of Kaleb Tarczewski, Grant Jerrett, Brandon Ashley and Gabe York brings not only talent to the table, but as Miller has said, maturity beyond their years.

‘Vanilla Vick’ ready to fill in for Scott ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat

On a week-to-week basis, Arizona’s schedule is pretty consistent.

A game on Saturday, practice on Sunday and then a day off on Monday.

After a 66-10 shellacking at the hands of UCLA, the Wildcats needed a day off. Except for B.J. Denker.

“Our day off we usually go home,” Denker said. “But I knew I needed to be in a position to be successful, so I got some extra work in.”

Arizona’s backup quarterback spent six hours in the film room on Monday, and for good reason.

Matt Scott suffered a concussion against the Bruins, and his status for Saturday’s Homecoming game against Colorado is up in the air, putting Denker next in line.

“I’m really excited,” Denker said. “This is what I’ve been working for all year, so it’ll be good to get my first start in front of my home crowd. It’ll be a big game, I’m excited.”

Big game and big shoes to fill.

Scott is first in Pac-12 with 2,848 passing yards, and fourth with 20 touchdowns. Oh, and he’s run for 369 yards and four touchdowns.

Denker feels he is ready, and his teammates have voiced confidence in “Vanilla Vick,” a nickname which stems from his lefthandedness and speed at the quarterback position.

“I’ve caught the ball from B.J. a lot in practice, so I’m comfortable with him,” receiver Austin Hill said. “It doesn’t really matter who’s at quarterback as long as they’re

getting the job done.”

With Scott exiting the UCLA game with 6:17 remaining in the third quarter, Denker had to fill in, which he did once before in a 49-0 blowout loss to Oregon in week four when Scott left the game with a hip injury.

In those two games, Denker went 7-of-13 with 45 yards, one interception, one fumble and zero touchdowns.

“B.J. did all right,” head coach Rich Rodriguez said. “I think his decision making, his demeanor, his demand of what we’re asking him to do was good. It’s a tough situation to go in when you’re that far behind and all that but, I thought he made a couple of good decisions, a couple good throws.”

On the season, the 6-foot-3, 177-pound Denker is 13-of-23 with 123 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Next to Scott’s, those numbers don’t really larry hogan/arizona Daily Wildcat strike much confidence. But Denker isn’t QUARTERBACK B.J.
