Social media has the power to change the way social movements work by providing tools to expand, reach and influence. “Social Movements in the Digital Era” is a seminar series by the Center for Latin American Studies’ Virtual Dialogues that takes place today at 4 p.m. in the Union Kiva Room on the fourth floor of the Student Union Memorial Center. Eric Franqui, a Latin American studies graduate student, helped organize the event and said he’s excited to have Justin Wedes speak. Wedes was one of the primary organizers of Occupy Wall Street in New York and is currently working in Detroit helping with social activism. Wedes said he will be talking about how many social movements

Social media and social networks are tools that enable people to connect to people and organizations with similar interest across large geography, Wedes added, saying there are no longer boundaries. Web 2.0 technologies such as Twitter, YouTube and Snapchat are being used by activists in the field, Franqui said. Wedes said he believes that no matter what technology is being used, it will never change the need for people to raise their voices and take direct action, such as protests, to put pressure on people in power.

On the UA campus, there are multiple organizations that have the goal of educating the student body, raising awareness and stopping sexual assault. 10 The Associated Students of the University of Arizona signed on to the national “It’s On Us” campaign last semester, and since then, it’s been referred to as ASUA’s first priority by current ASUA President Issac Ortega. The “It’s On Us” campaign is a national awareness 5 campaign where individuals and groups can pledge to help put an end to sexual assault. “This semester, our main focus is just to keep the message persistent,” Ortega said. “I think it’s super important to keep the conversation going.” 1 Ortega said one of the main goals of the campaign has been to create a campus culture 2011 2012 where people feel safe to report. By the end of the school year, Ortega wants to put up a part two to a video made last semester and launch a poster campaign in the dorms that would use quotes from celebrities to raise Reporting sexual assault awareness. “It’s a very courageous, very brave move for a Manny Felix, next year’s ASUA president, survivor to report,” Hinek said. wants to continue the campaign.

“Our belief is that because we’ve enhanced our education outreach on campus, more people are a) aware of what their options are and b) are more comfortable with reporting, because there’s less stigma with reporting,” said Kendal Washington White, assistant vice president for Student Affairs, Dean of Students and Deputy Title IX Coordinator at the UA.

there is no statute of limitations with the Student Code of Conduct. Investigations are recommended to take no longer than 60 days by the U.S. Department of Education, but there is no true set time limit, as schools are only required to be prompt with their investigations. What the office can do for a student depends on the details of the case, but some of the options include moving the student or the accused to a different dorm, changing class schedules to different sections and providing no-contact orders that keep the accused away from the victim. The third option is for the victim to file a report with University of Arizona Police Department or Tucson Police Department, depending on the location where it occurred. If the victim chooses, charges and a formal police investigation could be started. If a student goes to UAPD, the Dean of Students Office is also notified. Having three different options can be beneficial to students, but that also means that there’s a discrepancy between the numbers that occur, because some students only go to one or two instead of all three. Washington White said the important thing is people do report. “I just want people to report to whomever they feel comfortable with,” she said.

Keeping the conversation going

Education and awareness of sexual assault are two of the main weapons that people use to fight it. Facilitating a discussion about sexual assault can experience significant drawbacks when people are afraid or hesitant about having that discussion. “There are a lot of people who don’t want to talk about it,” Hinek said. She added that this especially occurs with young women, the demographic most at risk for sexual assault. She partially attributed this to how some people use myths to assure themselves it could never happen to them. “As soon as we accept the fact that it can happen to anyone at any time, it becomes very real and really scary,” Hinek said, “and all of a sudden, we could be victimized.” Diversity of people and opinion is also something that needs to be brought to the

— Schools must have an acquittal. — Colleges and universities cannot encourage or allow mediation of a sexual assault complaint instead of a formal hearing. — The complainant or accuser can have an adviser of choice with them as they make the initial report. — When going through a hearing, the parties can provide testimony remotely. — Both parties can have an adviser of their choice at the hearing. — If you think your Title IX rights have been violated, you can file a formal complaint with the U.S. Department of Education.

discussion, she added. “When we don’t have men there, we don’t have fraternity or sorority members there or people from the culture centers there,” Hinek said, “we’re maybe only getting one opinion.” There are simple ways someone could go about maintaining the conversation about sexual assault. Some of these are talking to friends, believing survivors when they come forward and challenging the language people use that normalizes rape, McKendry said. “This kind of prevention messaging really needs to reach people sooner than college,” McKendry said. “It needs to reach people when they’re in elementary school, middle school and high school.”

partnerships for community relations at the UA, said UA4Food has raised $275,000 and almost 172,000 pounds of food since 2004. She said people make monetary donations and give to the food bank year-round in addition to the four-week food drive in March. “Last year alone … we got 23,000 pounds of food donated,” McGinnis said. “Stuff the CatTran is just the end of our big push to help the food bank replenish their shelves after the holidays are long over.” McGinnis added that last year, around 3,000 pounds of food was collected at the Stuff the CatTran event and that UA4Food would love to exceed that number during the food collection event this year.

Also in attendance will be journalist and UA associate professor Celeste González de Bustamante. Franqui said this seminar will give students — who may have seen protests around the world — the chance to get involved or learn more about political movements. He said it’s important for students and community members to show up, especially with Tucson’s long history of social activism. “I think anybody who’s interested in social movements should come and learn about tools and how you can use them to advocate for your own causes on campus and within the community,” Wedes said.

April Fools’ oldies still goldies BY ANNA MAE LUDLUM The Daily Wildcat

Foolishly wasting centuries of research in vain attempt to determine the time and context of April 1, historians have only succeeded in reiterating today is a day of laughs or a day for paranoia. UA students might already have awoken to the sound of an air horn duct taped to the back of their door, googly eyes glued to items in their mini-fridges or even unpleasant edible surprises. “Freshman year, this one girl tricked me with three different things,” said Lorenzo Fusaro, a computer science junior, “and then she came to apologize to me later, saying she felt bad and gave me an Oreo that was filled with toothpaste.” Without plans of her own, Lauren Martin, a physiology junior, knows of student pranks in the planning stages, such as “minor ones like taping toilet paper so someone can’t use it.” Arizona pranks have circulated through national news, appearing on best prank lists. These pranks are oldies to aspire to. Former Phoenix Suns president Jerry Colangelo’s 1994 nationallycriticized business deal with PayPer-View forced Arizona residents to purchase, by phone with a credit card, to view live NBA home games. On April 1, 1993, KTAR News morning airwaves began with the hard news of the day, including the introduction of a brand new piece of technology called “pay-per-listen,” requiring a payment to listen to the radio broadcast of an NBA home game. The public responded to this

REBECCA NOBLE/THE DAILY WILDCAT

A CLASSIC APRIL FOOLS’ Day prank: replacing the cream of a sandwich cookie with toothpaste. Holiday pranks can vary from something as simple as saran wrapping a toilet seat to as major as a news station telling listeners they’d have to pay a toll upon entering freeway ramps.

as added betrayal by taking away the last free source to follow the Suns through their NBA play-off season in another nickel-and-dime ploy. From Vaudeville, broadcast news, 29 years on “The Wallace and Ladmo” Phoenix television show, topping The Beatles in local 1964 music charts and being the current KTAR radio host, Pat McMahon understands what it takes to make a story a smash.

Pranks were so heavily detailed, they would have websites and reliable or well-known people back up the prank. Radio hosts would keep it going, making it more believable and picking up where the last host left off. It would only be by the end of the day when everyone came clean. “It’s got to be believable, and then something that kind of upsets you a little bit,” Fusaro said. “If it scares you, that’s also really good.”

NPR’s 1988 “All Things Considered” claimed President Ronald Reagan planned to sell Arizona to Canada to lessen national debt, and the NFL might not recognize Arizona professional football because Phoenix would be foreign territory. After the groundbreaking Arizona Diamondbacks’ “Bank One Ballpark,” Colangelo read from a script stating he was inspired by slaves in the 1959 film “Ben-Hur,”

who man-powered the ship with oars. Like the “team effort” in the film, fans seated in the rafters could save Arizona money by manually cranking the arena roof open and shut. Weeks later, those unaware it was the KTAR April Fools’ prank of 1996 still publicly railed against Colangelo. “They were absolutely outraged at the idea that anything would be done in the world of private business with public funding,” McMahon said, “and they didn’t want the baseball park, anyway. They didn’t like Colangelo, so it was the subject-du-jour for ages.” With the economic crash of 2008, KTAR once again alarmed April 1 morning commuters. Former Gov. Janet Napolitano apparently signed into law that the on-ramps of freeways would have individual toll collectors present. “Everybody had an individual fee,” McMahon said, “so on the 51 freeway, you would pay 51 cents, and on the Loop 101, you paid $1.01.” Without the exact change, The Arizona Department of Transportation required drivers to turn around and expect three-hour traffic delays, or so they claimed. “They were calling from their cars ready to cede from the Union,” McMahon said. Needless to say, Arizona has had its fair share of memorable April Fools’ Day pranks, and if you think you’re immune to such foolery, be on the lookout.

The ultimate goal in a stray animal’s life is to gain a forever home. For students, who are most likely nowhere near their “forever home,” why is it necessary to convince an animal they have found theirs? The Humane Society of Southern Arizona’s Foster Care Program has a number of volunteer opportunities that can provide you with a temporary foster pet. Those puppy licks and cat cuddle sessions can exist in college. “To hear that UA students are considering foster care opportunities says so much of their willingness to benefit the community,” said Aaron Fisher, volunteer coordinator for the Humane Society of Southern Arizona. For people who want to make a difference in an animal’s life but are currently in a temporary living situation, foster care is a perfect opportunity. “Even if you can’t give it a forever home, by fostering, you are making it COURTESY OF THE HUMANE SOCIETY OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA more adoptable,” Fisher said. “They may KACEY, A PIT bull currently being fostered by entomology graduate student Cristina Francois.

$15 wage has more benefits than flaws BY NICK HAVEY

The Daily Wildcat

S

eattle is a surprisingly metropolitan city, complete with $150 per person sushi lunches and more high-end retail stores than we ever see in downtown Phoenix. It also exhibits an intense and abundantly apparent gentrification of once urban and low-income areas. Seattle is safely situated within the tech bubble, and new money is being generated at Gatsbian levels. Unfortunately, the nasty specter trailing behind gentrified white neighborhoods is an increasing difficulty for the already overburdened racial and economic minorities within the city. With Seattle becoming such a mecca for the nouveau riche, cost of living has skyrocketed, and the city is leaving behind those who were struggling to survive in the first place. A white knight (or several) has ridden into the city to make up for this growing income disparity: city subsidized hygiene centers and other initiatives to assist homeless or low-income residents, as well as the talk of the nation — Seattle’s $15 minimum wage standard. Currently, I make $8.05 per hour to get yelled at while I sit at a desk. That’s not bad, but I certainly couldn’t live on it. I have the support of my parents and the Office of Scholarships and Financial Aid. Unfortunately, most college students and people in general could not dream of supporting themselves on Arizona’s (and most other places’) minimum wage due to cost of living and purchasing power. In Tucson, it’s a bit easier to sustain life with a horrible wage; food and housing are quite cheap. In Seattle, tech-gentrification has made it all but impossible to live, and Seattle’s new $15 per hour minimum wage is hoping to narrow the gap. The minimum wage is a hard discussion to have, because a majority of the jobs that minimum-wage employees serve are unskilled and parttime. The association between these jobs and undereducated teenagers or immigrants is an exceptional example of socioeconomic and racial discrimination in the labor force. “Seattle wants to stop the race to the bottom in wages and address the widening gap between the rich and the poor,” said Seattle City Councilmember Tom Rasmussen in a Politico article. Opponents of this move, largely small business owners and franchisees of national corporations, such as McDonald’s, cite concerns about drastic and sudden reappropriation of operations costs to cover this mandate. Planning to sue to stop the ordinance, the International Franchise Association out of Washington, D.C., said in response that the “City Council’s action today is unfair, discriminatory and a deliberate attempt to achieve a political agenda at the expense of small franchise business owners.” This political agenda is one that should be being taken up nationwide. There are clear dangers to developing what the right would refer to as a “welfare state,” a concept we’ve seen thoroughly discussed with the progression of the Affordable Care Act. But, there are even clearer and more present dangers to preventing a majority of urban city populations from being able to sustain life. The ordinance in Seattle is being implemented in increments to allow small businesses to manage the allocation of funds to allow for this wage increase. Small businesses have seven years and a progression of wage increases to account for to make sure they make the cut as the rest of the city leads the way. Other concerns are entirely valid, such as the worry that certain jobs will be slashed entirely and result in vast unemployment within the city’s most vulnerable populations. According to the verbiage of the newly passed laws, franchises such as local McDonald’s — part of a larger, multinational corporation — are considered “big business,” even if they have less than 40 employees. The law requires them to make the more rapid change to accommodate the wage mandate, and concerns are that the smaller franchises do not have the social or actual capital to make this happen. The truth of the matter is that problems will exist within any progressive legislation, and any attempts at reducing income disparity should be welcomed with open arms. If Seattle, and other burgeoning metropolises, wants to enter into the competitive landscape of the world’s top cities, they’re going to have to offer their citizens what it takes to live that life. A minimum wage increase, however drastic, is a start.

Start here on assault T

he events in Ferguson, Mo., have begun a nationwide discussion on the issue of racial bias and police corruption. The Department of Justice found that “Ferguson’s police and municipal court practices both reflect and exacerbate existing racial bias, including racial stereotypes.” This is to say that in Ferguson, the issues of police misconduct find their root in underlying racial bias. In similar fashion, over the past year, numerous stories of sexual assault on college campuses have surfaced. Just as police violence is rooted in racial bias, sexual assault finds root in misconceptions of gender, agency and power. In 2012, the World Health Organization released a report on sexual violence that listed “genderinequitable views,” “traditional gender and social norms related to male superiority” and “weak community and legal sanctions against violence” as root causes for sexual assault. A report released by the Panos Institute warned, “Even when laws do not so blatantly discriminate against women, an imbalance in power can be firmly entrenched in

social norms.” The Ferguson Police Department is not the only institution whose underlying bias infects their actions. Similarly, college students are not the only social group whose misconceptions of gender and power infect their actions. The question becomes: How do we address these deepseated problems of ideology? After a thorough investigation of the Ferguson Police Department, the Department of Justice suggested numerous proposed reforms to the administration of the police department. The seventh suggestion on this list reads, “Provide … training to all officers that sends a clear, consistent and emphatic message that bias-based profiling and other forms of discriminatory

policing are prohibited. Training should include … [information] on how stereotypes and implicit bias can infect police work.” So, how should colleges address the issue of sexual assault? The answer to this question must be a combination of preventative measures, punitive measures and reparative measures. I would like to propose that the most productive discussion, the discussion that the public must begin to have, is the one that rigorously addresses preventative measures. I am proposing that institutions of higher education take a cue from the Department of Justice and implement their own form of implicit bias training. I want to propose that colleges and universities hold seminars on

Higher education [should] take a cue from the Department of Justice

gender equality and sexual assault for all incoming freshmen. These seminars would be held for the express purpose of discussing the students’ personal conceptions of gender, power and agency. They would serve to reduce the issue of sexual assault in the society the same way that implicit bias training can help to reduce instances of racially discriminatory policing. An entire generation of graduates who have critically examined their assumptions about sexuality, relationships, gender and power would be a formidable force for justice. It has been said that sunlight is the best disinfectant. I believe that if institutions of higher education provide an intellectual space for the next generation of leaders, businessmen, parents and lovers to discuss their conceptions of gender, agency and relationships, we could effectively pull the issue of sexual assault out from the shadows. Perhaps we would find men dealing with their conceptions of power before the frat party screw up. — Michaela Duarte (philosophy, politics, economics and law)

Increase in ADHD a symptom of flawed health care system high rate, making one wonder how such an ostensibly serious disorder can be so common. The “psychosocial reasons” that Eisenberg mentioned also appear to be commonly ignored or missed because of the massive profit motive and intense pressure from parents to get their children on a drug, Ritalin or methylphenidate, that is one of the closest drugs chemically to cocaine. (In The Encyclopedia of of Addictive Drugs, Richard Lawrence Miller cites studies in which “illicit substance abusers were unable to tell whether they received a dose of cocaine or methylphenidate.”) The Guardian has reported that many parents are being pressured by schools to zombify their children (usually boys) as young as 4 years old with these drugs, because they’re naturally rowdy, as little kids should be. The New York Times Editorial Board cites that “Recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that 15 percent of high-school-age children had been diagnosed with the disorder and that the number of children taking medication for it had soared to 3.5 million, up from 600,000 in 1990. Many of these children, it appears, had been diagnosed by unskilled doctors based on dubious symptoms.” The pharmaceutical companies and their lackeys, moreover, would have you believe that many unfortunate children are falling through the cracks and going untreated. Could it really be true that more than 15 percent of our children have this brain disorder (often in combination with other overdiagnosed disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, et cetera)? This is part of a larger problem of overmedication, especially of very young

L

eon Eisenberg, known as the “discoverer” or “father” of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, made a startling statement as he lay on his deathbed. To the famous German weekly Der Spiegel, he said ADD/ADHD is, essentially, a fraud. In its current form, he said, it serves primarily to enrich Big Pharma at the expense of the patients, as young as 4 years old and primarily male, who he said are usually misdiagnosed and medicated. Translated from the original German, the newspaper article reads: “He said that he never would have thought his discovery would someday become so popular. ‘ADHD is a prime example of a fabricated disorder,’ Eisenberg said. ‘The genetic predisposition to ADHD is completely overrated.’ Instead, child psychiatrists should more thoroughly determine the psychosocial reasons that can lead to behavioral problems, Eisenberg said. Are there fights with parents, are there problems in the family? Such questions are important, but they take a lot of time, Eisenberg said, adding with a sigh: ‘Prescribe a pill for it very quickly.’” Advocates assert that ADD/ADHD is a brain disorder and that affected individuals can be clearly differentiated from unaffected people by brain scans — and there is some research to back this up. However, no such technology is used in the overwhelming majority of cases. Instead, doctors rely on a checklist that uses laughably broad criteria and comes to a diagnosis of ADD/ADHD at an extraordinarily

children. “Today, children 5 years old and younger are the fastest-growing segment of the non-adult population prescribed antidepressants in the U.S.,” fightforkids.com states. “Children as young as 4 have attempted suicide while influenced by such drugs and [5-year-olds] have committed suicide. Between 1995 and 1999, antidepressant use increased 580 [percent] in the under [6 years of age] population and 151 [percent] in the 7-12 age group.” This is the inevitable result of a for-profit system of health care. Doctors’ judgments are completely compromised by kickbacks from pharmaceutical companies, and the health and lives of children are the collateral damage. There have been, according to The New York Times, television advertisements that shamelessly suggested that Adderall would not only make one’s child smarter but also “more amenable to chores like taking out the garbage.” It is incorrect and deeply disturbing and wrong to accept that such a large proportion of our children are mentally ill. Clearly, Big Pharma’s profit addiction has led it to abandon any pretense of social responsibility while appealing to, and exacerbating, a horrific form of social control that robs unfortunate children of their childhood and natural personalities. I am sure that there are a few legitimate cases of ADD/ADHD, and some might even be best treated with Ritalin, Adderall, Dexedrine, Desoxyn (as medical methamphetamine is known) or other hard stimulants. But this is obviously the exception that proves the rule.

POLICE BEAT BY AMBER WHITE

The Daily Wildcat

Hack and slash… or not

A UA faculty member reported damage to a tire of a UA vehicle parked on 1565 N. Ring Road at 1:39 p.m. on March 16. A University of Arizona Police Department officer arrived at the AHSC substation to meet with the UA affiliate. He thought someone slashed the rear driver’s side tire of the UA vehicle that was parked on the west side of the building. He claimed the vehicle was parked properly at about 11:30 a.m. that day. Another UA employee went to use the vehicle around 1:40 p.m. and noticed the tire was flat. A razor blade, 1 ½ inches long, was seen stuck in the tire. There was also a slash approximately 3 inches long on top of the tire. The security camera located on the west side of the building pointed directly at the vehicle. Two officers on the scene asked the staff member to view the security camera footage at 2 p.m. The footage showed the vehicle parked at 11:08 a.m. and the tire getting flatter and flatter as time went on. As the security camera was rewound, the tire was inflating up to the time it was parked. The officers determined that the driver of the vehicle ran over something, which caused the tire to go flat when the vehicle was parked. The UA faculty member reporting the incident agreed to their conclusion and was issued a case number.

Out of sight, out of mind

A UA student was driving his 1993 silver Ford F150 pickup when a UAPD officer saw an illegible temporary license on the vehicle on March 16 at 7:16 p.m. The officer stopped the truck on First Street just east of Campbell Avenue. As the officer moved closer to the vehicle, he saw that the temporary license plate expired on Feb. 12. The driver said he did not have a license on him due to it being taken away on a previous DUI charge. The student told the officer he had paperwork from the Pima County Justice Court giving him a 90-day driving privilege but realized he forgot it at his house. He claimed to be on his way back to get it. The officer mentioned his expired registration, and he said he had a new valid temporary registration that he forgot to put on the back of the vehicle. The officer confirmed his story by running a check on the VIN number. When the officer ran a check on the student, he learned that his Arizona driving privilege had been revoked. The woman inside the car got a ride back to the house from Uber transportation to retrieve the court paperwork. The officer found out that the 90-day extension was from a previous charge of driving while revoked and not a 90-day temporary driving privilege as the man claimed. The student said he must have misunderstood the judge when confronted with this information. He was cited and released for driving on a revoked license. The truck was towed to Tucson Wrecker Pool for impounding. The two individuals left in another Uber vehicle.

Different in a good way After finishing last year with 22 wins, Arizona baseball has already won 22 games behind a dominant offense and revamped pitching staff BY NICOLE COUSINS The Daily Wildcat

Arizona catcher Riley Moore would have given you a fiery answer about his team being back and out with a vengeance, had you asked for his thoughts about Arizona being snubbed from the preseason top 25 rankings in January. Even though the Wildcats have reached that ranking — debuting at No. 22 on the USA Today/ESPN poll, as well as No. 25 on the d1baseball. com and NCBWA polls and No. 13 in the Collegiate Baseball Newspaper poll — Moore’s opinion is no different. “I wouldn’t even say we’re starting to come into our own with that whole ‘vengeance’ thing where we need to get this program back,” Moore said. “We’ve still got plenty of work to do.” Arizona (22-6, 7-2) has already showed noticeably different work this season. The team is off to its best start since 2007, when coach Andy Lopez’s team started 22-6 as well. The last time the Wildcats started 7-2 in Pac-12 Conference play was 2012, the season they eventually swept the College World Series. Arizona’s offense is good — really good. The Wildcats are ranked No. 1 in the nation in team batting average at .332, headed by the middle infield duo of Scott Kingery and Kevin Newman. The two rank No. 1 and No. 4, respectively, in hits, with 53 and 49, while they come in at first and 10th, respectively, in individual batting average at .453 and .426. They also lead off the batting lineup for Arizona, something that Moore, who bats third, said is surreal but fun and something that Arizona baseball is supposed to be doing. “Statistically speaking, they’re as good as I’ve seen with their work ethic and the way they go about things,” Moore said. “That’s just the ultimate baseball mentality.” Moore joins Newman and Kingery as one of six consistent starters

Arizona has played Texas Tech 31 times previously, with the Red Raiders dominating the series record 25-4-2. The last matchup between the two teams came in 1988 and resulted in a 35-19 win for Arizona. The all-time series with Hawaii is much less frequent than the Texas Tech series, as the Wildcats have played the Rainbow Warriors just four times, winning all four matchups. The most recent matchup came in 1998 and resulted in a 27-6 Arizona win.

Football focus shifting from spring to summer BY ROBERTO PAYNE The Daily Wildcat

Spring practice is more than halfway over for Arizona football, and the transition to summer football practice has begun. The Wildcats have just five practices left before April 10’s Spring Game. “We’re still evaluating a lot of guys,” Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. “The end of this week and Saturday’s practice and probably a practice next week, we are going to talk about what we want them to work on in the summer when the coaches aren’t around. I think we have enough conscientious guys, and I think they’ll take it to heart.” Rodriguez said the team’s attitude this year has been similar to the attitude at the same time last year. “I think this group likes to work,” Rodriguez said. “But, I think all the groups we’ve had in the spring have been really good. I go back to the first spring; the guys really probably struggled with the tempo, and everything was new. I think the tone was set, because their effort

and their attitude [was] so good. That first spring we were here really set the tone, because now we don’t have to get the tempo to where we want to because it’s built in already.” Despite a couple of key players out of spring practice due to injury, the Wildcats should be considered on the up-and-up as summer is right around the corner. Future series’ announced Arizona football announced future series with Texas Tech and Hawaii on Tuesday. The Wildcats will face the Red Raiders in 2019 and 2020 in a home-and-home series. Arizona was already scheduled to face the Rainbow Warriors in 2019 and 2020 but extended the series to included 2016 and 2025 in a homeand-home. “We’re excited to add more quality opponents in Texas Tech and Hawaii to our future schedules,” Arizona athletics director Greg Byrne said in a UA press release. “Playing opponents of this caliber is a great opportunity and our future schedules are developing nicely for our program and our fans.”

F

ollowing Arizona softball’s series loss to ASU last weekend, it’s all the more clear the Wildcats will go however far their pitching takes them. That’s a lot of weight to burden underclassmen Michelle Floyd and Trish Parks, but as the UA plows through the heart of Pac-12 Conference play, the pair must display greater consistency. After a bumpy freshman campaign, Floyd leads the team in innings pitched (114), wins (16), ERA (2.70), complete games (nine), appearances (23), strikeouts (88) and batting average against (.220). Parks, in her true freshman season, is right behind Floyd in every one of the aforementioned areas. Not to mention, Parks is one of the team’s most important offensive players. Arizona looks like a team that can compete with anyone in the country when things are going well on the mound, as was the case in an 11-1 victory over ASU on Sunday night. The Wildcats hit the ball well, as usual, sending four homers over the fence, and received contribution from top to bottom of the lineup. But unlike the previous two games in the series that resulted in 8-5 and 9-4 losses, Floyd and Parks managed to pitch out of difficult situations on Sunday. Floyd allowed ASU to load the bases twice, but the Sun Devils never managed to cross the

Arizona forced the Sun Devils to strand 12 runners on base. “We just have to get out of it,” Floyd said. “Throw strikes and trust my team behind me.” Two nights earlier, Floyd was in a similar tough spot with no outs and the bases loaded in the seventh inning. Only that time, she gave up a go-ahead grand slam that would cost Arizona the game. A day later, Parks only made it through three innings after allowing seven earned runs. “The first couple of days, I thought they pitched scared,” Candrea said. “[On Sunday], we got out of a couple of big jams, and that’s the way these games are. You have to find a way.” For a pair of young pitchers, those are the types of learning curves that are necessary, and even guaranteed to occur, when competing in one of the strongest conferences in the nation. Now, with the calendar flipped to April, Arizona can no longer afford as much patience on the mound. Floyd and Parks must deliver in tight spots. “Most of these kids are used to high school or travel ball where you have three hitters [that] can hurt you,” Candrea said. “Now you have nine hitters.” The Wildcats currently find themselves sitting in the middle of the conference standings and at No. 16 in the national rankings with just a little more than a month left in the regular season. Not a bad position but not a great one, either.

“In another group or another situation, he might be a starter,” Lopez said. “[I’m] not secure enough when I do this high wire act called putting our rotation together, so I like to work with a net. … He’s the net.” Bannister was initially in the contest for a starting pitching spot, but has since adapted to his pivotal role in the bullpen. “Once you get in the pen, you don’t think you’ll go for more than four innings but a few times I have,” Bannister said. “I’ve come into [my role] naturally, I think, and I just want to get those outs.” Bannister said better damage control has been the biggest factor that the pitching staff has contributed, especially being able to get out of situations when there’s bases loaded with less than two outs. But he also said it comes back to hitting and knowing Arizona can do big things at the plate. The next two series will put the newly ranked Wildcats to the test. They host No. 9 USC this weekend and travel to rival No. 10 ASU next weekend. — Follow Nicole Cousins @cousinnicole

The real difference for the Wildcats has been on the mound. Arizona pitchers, compared to last year, are substantially more effective, throwing for a combined 3.39 ERA through 28 games this season. This time last year, the team sported a lowly 4.32 ERA through 28 games (they were 11-17) and ended the season even higher at 4.49. The struggles ran from starter to closer. Arizona recorded just four saves in 55 games in 2014; it already has nine this season. Tyger Talley has been a catalyst for this year’s pitching. He is 3-0 in seven starts and has shown what Lopez calls “great maturity” between last season and now. The Sunday starter’s ERA has dropped from 3.66 last season to 3.18. Talley also leads the team in strikeouts, with 37, halfway through the regular season. Nathan Bannister is another huge factor in Arizona’s defensive success. Lopez’s go-to reliever has pitched 33.2 innings for a 2.41 ERA and 25 strikeouts in 12 appearances.

Rodriguez said he expects Solomon to reduce his negative plays, amongst other things, next season. “We have to limit any negative yardage plays, and we don’t want to take sacks or negative yard plays,” Rodriguez said. “Also, seeing the field better and understanding where the weaknesses are of every particular defense. He’s gotten better. I think he feels more comfortable now, but there’s still a lot of work left to be done there.”
