Gluten-free diets are not for everyone
A
Kianna chamber
s the gluten-free market continues to flourish, those thinking of joining this food fad should do their homework before throwing out their baguettes. Until recent years, gluten was a word uncommon to the masses. Once the glutenfree craze gained its momentum, there was no way of prodding it out of the cultural consciousness. The irony is that most people still do not understand exactly what gluten is. Gluten is a group of proteins found in wheat, barley and rye. Those who are diagnosed with celiac or non-celiac gluten sensitivity have an autoimmune reaction against gluten, which primarily takes place within the intestines. “For people without celiac or NCGS, there is no evidence that suggests that a gluten-free diet is beneficial,” said Courtney Holbrook, president of UA Gluten Free. Aside from being in many grains, gluten can also be found in processed junk food. These, of course, are foods that any nutritionist would suggest eliminating from a daily food regimen. “The fact that the food is generally less processed makes it healthier, not the fact that it’s gluten-free,” said Hana Feeney, a registered dietician and nutrition counselor with the UA. Even until recently, gluten-free options were more processed than items with gluten. Feeney said that once the demand

for gluten-free options increased, there was a greater demand to make these options in a healthier fashion. Even with healthier options being offered in grocery stores for those with celiac or NCGS, these choices are not always guaranteed to be less processed. Choosing not to consume gluten is usually not an approach to take when considering weight loss, but it can benefit many different areas of the body. “Gluten is an inflammatory compound,” Feeney said. “Whether or not it is detrimental varies from person to person.” People who have autoimmune diseases — such as celiac — may exhibit symptoms
throughout the body. Focus ability, joint soreness after exercise and fatigue may be linked to inflammation. However, experiencing these symptoms does not automatically mean one has celiac disease. Therefore, proper tests should be done before undertaking a diet. Feeney said that if someone started feeling healthier after eliminating gluten from their diet, then they should start eating gluten again to observe if their body reacts negatively. Feeney suggests consulting with Campus Health Service or a nutritionist before committing to a gluten-free lifestyle. Entering a gluten-free world with grandiose weight-loss expectations is not

ideal, since you’re probably better off continuing to consume gluten. For university students who choose to embark on gluten-free journeys, there are gluten-free dining options all over campus. “The [student] union is working hard to cater to a need that people have been consistently requesting,” said Christine Carlson, assistant director for nutrition for the Arizona Student Unions. On Deck Deli now offers gluten-free bagels and sandwich bread for healthy breakfast and lunch options. Core Plus at the Park Student Union is nearly 100 percent gluten-free and specializes in meals for those with celiac. It offers fajitas, salads, stir fry and omelets, all made with fresh ingredients. The Red & Blue Market makes prepackaged meals, such as sandwiches and salads, which are prepared in a designated gluten-free room and sold at locations such as Highland Market. According to Holbrook, Examiner.com ranked the UA third for top gluten-free colleges in the country. Without a doubt, those choosing glutenfree lifestyles will find the adjustment more welcoming with abundant accommodations on campus. But those who love gluten are encouraged to keep eating that wheat.

urrounded by sleeping bags, canoes and rock climbing equipment, students experiment with spices and herbs as other means of staying healthy. Cooking on Campus is a bimonthly cooking class held Tuesdays in the Outdoor Adventures section of the Student Recreation Center. Student chefs teach fellow students how to concoct delectable recipes under the watchful eye of class adviser Sarah Rokuski, a nutrition counselor at Campus Health Service. “Students who attend Cooking on Campus will gain hands-on experience cooking quick, easy and healthy meals,” Rokuski said. Rokuski added that all the ingredients used in the classes can be found at the Student Union Memorial Center, so students are able to cook healthy meals right in their own dorm rooms. During the class, students break off into pairs and prepare an entire recipe like the Chipotle lime fish tacos that they

get to eat when they finish. Leftovers are common, and the Cooking on Campus team encourages students to take their food home. Classes usually have three recipes that relate to a specific theme such as “fun lunches,” “gluten-free cooking” and “holiday favorites.” “I’m most excited for our Pizza Reinvented class,” said Alex Bode, a molecular and cellular biology senior and executive chair of the Student Health Advocacy Committee’s Student Nutrition Coalition. “As a pizza fan, I like the new innovative and healthy spins we take on a classic.” Cooking on Campus started over five years ago with a collaboration between Campus Health, the Rec Center, Dining Services and SHAC. The goal was to give students the skills and confidence needed to cook healthy and nutritious meals. The talented student chefs also teach participants sophisticated cooking skills, such as safely cutting vegetables or how to find healthy ingredient substitutions. “[This year,] we have the recipe … for a memorable time,” said student chef Dorine Owusu-Nyarko, a nutritional sciences

Brosnan gets lost in plot holes
W
alex Guyton
hen I see a movie to review, I don’t take notes. That’s not me being a braggart. I just find I can better form my thoughts as the movie plays in front of me. “The November Man,” however, made me reevaluate this reviewing strategy. There are so many things wrong with this spy flick, it’s easy to lose track of them all. Peter Devereaux (Pierce Brosnan) has retired from his heyday as a CIA agent. He’s pulled out of his peaceful life when old colleague John Hanley (Bill Smitrovich) convinces Devereaux to go retrieve Natalia (Mediha Musliovic). She not only has dirt on Russian presidential hopeful Arkady Federov (Lazar Ristovski), but she also has a history with Devereaux. Things go awry, and Devereaux becomes the CIA’s new target. So here’s the first preposterous thing that happens: On her phone, Natalia has incriminating pictures of Federov. Since they’re in Eastern Europe, it’s — unsurprisingly — a sex crime. She needs to get them out of Russia and into the hands of the CIA. Mind you, it’s the
pictures that are important, not the phone. She acts, however, like she needs to get the phone away from the bad guys, as if that’s the only way to move photos. The CIA should take a page out of Hollywood’s A-list playbook on how to upload photos into a cloud storage system. Apparently, there’s just no tech training at the CIA, because this isn’t the only idiotic instance on the part of America’s elite operatives. Hanley is walked in on as he’s caught looking at sensitive content, and he wants to destroy it as soon as possible. So, he shoots the computer. He plugs in three rounds before he’s taken down. Of course, as we’re later told, the bullets all missed the hard drive. One must always suspend belief to an extent when watching a movie. However, these plot holes were just too stupid. It turns out that reporter Edgar Simpson (Patrick Kennedy) just so happens to have a hunch about Federov. He seeks out Mila Filapova, a war refugee who might be able to spill the beans on the shady politician. He seeks out Alice Fournier (Olga Kurylenko), Filapova’s social

worker, to help him locate her. When done right, interweaving characters and motivations create a delicious, labyrinthine clockwork of moving parts. When done wrong, they all coalesce into an uninterpretable mess. Brosnan and Kurylenko are by far the best aspects this movie has going for it; they’re not amateurs at the spy game. Brosnan, of course, was James Bond before Daniel Craig took over, and Kurylenko co-starred alongside Craig in “Quantum of Solace.” Brosnan hasn’t lost a step. He’s still charismatic and is a great leading man. We aren’t told why Devereaux is nicknamed “The November Man” until about five minutes are left in the film, which is about an hour after anything stopped mattering. For all the movie cared, “The November Man” could have been revealed to be the long-lost twin brother of retired professional baseball player Reggie Jackson, Mr. October. Grade:

Tarantino tribute starts at Loft
T
Ivana Goldtooth
he Loft Cinema has its guns loaded for audiences this month as it pays homage to the works of Quentin Tarantino with its series titled Pulp Tarantino: A Retrospective. Starting with the Generation X classic “Pulp Fiction” on Saturday and ending with historical satire “Django Unchained” on Sept. 27, The Loft plans to screen eight of Tarantino’s films that hit all the high points of the director’s career. “[There are] a lot of disturbing images or themes in Tarantino’s work,” said Jeff Yanc, the program director of The Loft. Tarantino is perhaps the most overthe-top in his spaghetti Western parody “Django Unchained.” The film is a graphic revenge saga taking place in the Old South and features a collection of tropes and clichés reminiscent of old Hollywood. “One of the things that [Tarantino] does is that his films are full of homages to other films,” said Bradley Schauer, an associate professor at the School of the

Theatre, Film and Television. Watching a Tarantino movie can feel a bit like taking a film history course, as it is easy to identify where the filmmaker borrows elements from classic cinema. In his first commercially successful feature, “Reservoir Dogs,” Tarantino uses moments from older films to construct the movie’s infamous torture
scene, which results in a cop getting an ear severed. Elements from the 1955 film noir thriller “The Big Combo” and the 1966 Clint Eastwood Western “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly” reappear at this climatic moment. “It’s this postmodern idea of remixed culture,” Schauer said. “I think Tarantino is doing the same kind of thing where he takes the older style of film and puts them together and makes a new context.” This becomes more evident in “Reservoir Dogs” when the character Mr. Blonde asks his victim, “How ’bout some fire, Scarecrow?” The famous quote from “The Wizard of Oz” is put into a new context by a modern approach. The situations may differ, but both scenes are ultimately about extreme intimidation. Schauer said that Tarantino’s excessive violence is balanced with a lot of goofy, dark humor. The silliness of Tarantino’s style is due to his hyperbolic approach to filmmaking, but the director is not all about the gore. “I think it’s a combination of compelling performances from the actors, interesting dialogue and the violent, cartoonish world he creates as
he blends genres,” Schauer said. It is this distinctive world that keeps drawing in viewers film after film. The Loft screenings now offer a rare opportunity for fans to see one of his older films in an actual theater. “I’m a big fan of getting people to see a movie on a big screen,” Yanc said. “There’s nothing like it.” Both Schauer and Yanc said the 1997 film “Jackie Brown” was their favorite, even though it’s one of Tarantino’s lesser known projects. “It’s less violent and a little more subtle [than his other works],” Yanc said. Other Tarantino films that will be screened this month include “Kill Bill: Vol. 1,” “True Romance” and “Inglourious Basterds.” Show times and tickets are available online, with tickets priced at $5.75 for Loft Members, $7.50 for students with ID and $9.25 for general admission. Tickets are also available over the phone or in person at The Loft box office. — Follow Ivana Goldtooth @goldiechik93
Play breaks gender stereotypes
I
Ivana Goldtooth
t might be hard figuring out what’s so special about the title character in “A Kid Like Jake,” especially since the audience never gets to meet him. The Invisible Theatre attempts to resolve this ambiguity by premiering Daniel Pearle’s play at the start of its 44th season. The story involves a 4-year-old boy named Jake who is just starting his first year of preschool in New York City. Before he can begin, however, his parents must find a private school they think is best for him. The play opens with Alex, Jake’s mother, sitting in the living room, mulling over an essay draft she will submit in a private school application. The essay prompt is to share what makes her child special. Alex realizes that everything about her son is special. He’s bright, inquisitive, loves
fairy tales and has an interest in playing dress up with girls. The latter, although unique to Jake and perhaps a bit odd, would look good on an application, according to Judy, the family friend helping to get Jake into these private schools. “This kind of strategizing — it’s sickening, but I think you can capitalize from it,” Judy says to Alex. “They’re looking for kids who stand out.” However, once the interesting hobby is out for the schools to see, social conflicts start to arise. Questions emerge, such as, “Why is he acting up? When did he become so aggressive? Is he going through a phase?” In bringing this play to the stage, the Invisible Theatre leaves the audience members to their own imaginations as to how this 4-year-old boy is handling these pressures to conform. The viewer only experiences the struggle through his two parents, whose relationship begins to unravel
due to this ordeal. Jake’s love of dress up stirs up his stubbornness — something his father insists he gets from his mother later in the play. When Halloween comes around, Jake is faced with the dilemma of choosing between a pirate or skeleton costume. His mother and father await his choice, but the child instead asks if he can dress as Snow White. This is followed by an argument that leaves Jake revoked of his trick-or-treating privileges and results in a hurtful accusation that Jake slings at his mother. The play consists of a fourperson cast featuring Anna Augustowska, Lori Hunt, Cynthia Jeffrey and Kevin Black, who also directed the play. Black and Hunt’s performances as Jake’s parents evokes the real-life issue of gender identity crisis and the difficulty of raising a child in a politically-correct world. It is this aspect that makes the play engaging as the parents

struggle to decide what’s best for Jake. In the end, after damaging relationships and hashing out arguments, neither parent knows what to do. They opt to just sit in their living room and watch “Cinderella,” an incredibly symbolic gesture for this gritty, family drama. But there is no fairy godmother to resolve this crisis, and the characters are left with
the uncertainty of what is in store for their precocious son. “A Kid Like Jake” will run until Sept. 14. Each show starts at 7:30 p.m. with two matinee showings on Sept. 13 and 14 at 3 p.m. Tickets cost $30. Follow Ivana Goldtooth @goldiechik93

Hot yoga, more commonly known as Bikram yoga, is a 90-minute yoga class taught in a room heated anywhere from 98 to 110 degrees. Traditionally, yoga instructor Bikram Choudhury taught the session in 108- to 112-degree heat. Hot yoga’s increasing popularity among older and younger age groups raises serious safety concerns about exercising in such an extreme climate. “In order to heal the body, first you need to inflame it,” said David Hernandez, a 4th Avenue Yoga instructor. Hernandez has over 500 hours of certified training in yoga and was trained in Ashtanga yoga and restorative techniques. Hernandez said that sweat will cool the body and rid it of any waste. Heated environments will increase pulse rates, thus allowing greater blood circulation throughout the body and more flexibility.

A DIVA WITH A DEGREE UA professor uses drag queen routine as a creative outlet
P
Kevin c. reagan
rofessor, father, drag queen: Patrick Holt is a man of many identities. When the costume designer is not leading classroom lectures for students of the School of Theatre, Film and Television, Holt can be found performing to sold-out crowds under the guise of Tempest DuJour. Strutting across the stage in bouffant wigs and rhinestone-sequenced dresses, Tempest DuJour epitomizes unapologetic gaudiness. Holt describes Tempest as the “crazy aunt” who inevitably draws attention to herself at a cocktail party. At a towering height of 6 feet 6 inches, Holt develops
a brass, captivating stage presence that matches the campy spectacles found on an episode of “RuPaul’s Drag Race.” “It’s the chance for me to make my own rules,” Holt said. When the suppressing bureaucracy of college academia puts Holt in a rut, he said that Tempest DuJour becomes his escape. Due to Holt’s staggering height, he must rely on his sewing skills to construct the elaborate wigs and dresses needed for his routine. This past summer, Holt added 15 new dresses to Tempest DuJour’s flashy wardrobe. Originally a character in a short documentary for a film festival, Tempest DuJour has transformed into a beloved staple for Tucson’s drag community. Headlining the Retro Game Show Night
at Hotel Congress for the last three years, Holt’s host routine consists of a sassy and playful antagonism with the audience. “It’s like assuming an identity,” Holt said. “Nobody who does drag wants to be a girl.” Rather, Holt explained that men who perform in drag are usually trying to celebrate womanhood. The character’s fiery wit and cheeky humor creates an eruptive storm of sauciness that appropriately fits a name like Tempest, which Holt said he based off the William Shakespeare play of the same name. The DuJour part of the name is rooted more in the tawdry culture of Holt’s Southern roots. Holt said that he wanted to find a French word that may sound fancy to someone from the Deep
South. So, the classic condiment spread had the perfect flair. As the child of a conservative family in North Carolina, Holt said that becoming a drag queen circumvents the outlandish behavior that was not permitted in his family home. Holt, as a young consumer of 1970s pop culture, found early inspiration for Tempest in comedians such as Phyllis Diller and Milton Berle. After earning his graduate degree from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, Holt ventured to New York City to work under the guidance of Paul Tazewell, the costume designer for shows like “The Color Purple.” The hustle-and-bustle of the Big Apple soon grew tiresome for Holt. So, the designer sought out some stability in
the academic world. Holt accepted an associate professor position at the UA in 2002, and he has been teaching courses in costume and makeup design ever since. Holt said that he’s completely transparent about his double life as Tempest DuJour with his colleagues and students. A small flyer advertising one of Tempest’s upcoming shows even hangs outside his office. As a faculty member of the School of Theatre, Film and Television, Holt is expected to serve as the costume designer for a number of plays in the Arizona Repertory Theatre’s annual season. “He’s got a willingness to explore the uniqueness in every play,” said Peter
Beudert, a distinguished professor and scenic designer for the School of Theatre, Film and Television. Beudert said that he was impressed by Holt’s artistry when they worked together on a production of solemn New England drama “The Cider House Rules.” The beauty of Holt’s subtle designs was enamoring, according to Beudert. A frequent spectator of the Arizona Repertory Theatre may be able to detect some of Tempest DuJour’s character in some of its productions. For instance, when the scandalous musical “Nine” was staged two seasons ago, it would be hard not to guess where Holt got the inspiration for the chorus’ sparkly, pink headdresses. Holt doesn’t seem phased by having
his drag queen character mingle with his professional and personal life. As a father of two young children, Holt said that they see his transformation into Tempest as completely normal. He even allows his kids to play with his elaborate makeup spread as he’s getting ready for a show. “I’m really lucky to have all this balance in my life,” Holt said. Holt will return to hosting the Retro Game Show Night at Hotel Congress on Sept. 20. The show starts at 7 p.m., and tickets are $8.

Taboo topics and coffee beans percolate at the Death Cafe Kevin C. Reagan
A
small crowd of strangers begins to filter in as the sun sets on a cramped coffeehouse in central Tucson. Each person has arrived with the same topic on their mind: death. Some are regulars, and some are novices, yet all are willing to bear their feelings and thoughts on their own mortality. There are no tears or tissues, as this is not a place for bereavement. If there is a rule at this Tucson Death Cafe meeting, it would be that one should not feel inhibited by their fear of the Grim Reaper. “It’s all about empowerment,” said Kristine Bentz, a facilitator of the Tucson Death Cafe. Bentz said the Death Cafe’s concept is rather simple and informal: A group of people coming together in a safe place to discuss death. Meeting on a monthly basis at a nearby coffee shop, the Tucson Death Cafe begins with the group of strangers sitting in a circle and sharing how death has or hasn’t touched them recently. The participants listen to many morbid anecdotes between sips of coffee that all inevitably have a similar ending. One woman reported a recent experience of washing a dead body inside a funeral home. Another shared his decision to donate his body to the University of Arizona Medical Center after he passes. The stories are as versatile as the participants that comprise the Tucson Death Cafe. From World War II veterans to teenage Harry Potter-fanatics, Bentz said that the group is always different each time its participants meet. The goal is to help raise an appreciation for life by confronting the inescapable matter of death. It may sound contradictory, but the participants testify to how effective it is to discuss death to

The Tucson Death Cafe is part of an international movement that started in London three years ago. Jon Underwood and Sue Barsky Reid developed the concept based on the ideas of Swiss sociologist Bernard Crettaz, the author of “Death Cafés: Bringing Death Out of Silence.” The movement has now expanded to over 1,000 recognized chapters around
the world, and the Tucson Death Cafe is one of the first in Arizona. The group plans to have its next meeting at the end of October around the time of the All Souls Procession in downtown Tucson. The location has yet to be determined, but prospective participants can stay informed through the Tucson Death Cafe’s Facebook page.

emories of grade school field trips to local planetariums can finally be substituted with the new, state-of-the-art FullDome Digital Projection System at the Flandrau Science Center and Planetarium. Students will be able to take to the sky like never before with this advanced piece of machinery, which was installed over the summer, and will be unveiled for the first time this Friday evening. The FullDome’s arrival introduces the Colorspace computer system to the U.S. for the first time. This system is a Swedish export that uses two projectors to combine images in a more precise and detailed fashion. These visual effects will cover the entire planetarium dome, surrounding the audience in a cosmic blanket of stars and sky. In addition to these astounding visuals, a new sound system has been installed to showcase the latest audio technology that will add to space’s awe and majesty. The primary imagery dataset, referred to as Digital Universe, uses data from several worldwide organizations — allowing a projection of an accurate and relatively complete 3-D atlas of the universe. From
According to Shipherd Reed, the operations and communications manager of the Flandrau Science Center, the Flandrau Planetarium is currently screening exhibits that explore the versatile topography and biodiversity of the desert landscape. The downtown | central | east arrival of the FullDome will introduce a new show lineup. The FullDome debut runs from 4-10 p.m.. ®The show “Touring the Planets” starts at 4 featuring p.m., “Magic Tree House: Space Mission” starts at 5:30 p.m., “Tucson Sky and Beyond” starts at 7 p.m., “Back to the Moon for Good” starts at 8 p.m. and “Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon” starts at 9 p.m. Family-friendly science-related shows and demonstrations will also be on the exhibit floor, demos will be held in the Marine Discovery Lab, and a prize wheel, raffle and free telescope viewing are planned REBECCA NOBLE/THE DAILY WILDCAT for the night. “HECTOR VECTOR STAR Projector” projects an image of the Earth using the Flandrau Science Center and “[UA students] can come see exhibits Planetarium’s new projector on Thursday. and planetarium shows … and they can see the immediate areas of space surrounding decades of faithful service, Hector provided laser music shows [at the Flandrau Science Earth to the far reaches of the unknown tours of the night skies to masses Center],” Reed said. “In the months ahead, * of people.

14 • WILDCAT WEEKEND
SPORTS • FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 2014
Volleyball set for Invitational EVAN ROSENFELD No. 23 Arizona volleyball returns to action this weekend in the first athletic event in the newly renovated McKale Center. The Wildcats host Alabama State, Loyola-Chicago and Cal State Northridge in the Arizona Invitational on Friday and Saturday. Arizona’s matchup with Alabama State is set to take place Friday morning at 10:30 a.m., with the Wildcats scheduled to take on Loyola-Chicago later that evening at 7 p.m. Two of the many renovations that have taken place in McKale Center are the addition of a brand new wooden floor and new seats for spectators. “I can’t wait to play on the new court,” sophomore libero Laura Larson said. “We’ve all been looking forward to and waiting for this since last season. It’s nice to finally get in a practice in here, and I can’t wait for the fans to see it.”

is used to score, is worth 10 points and the snitch is worth 30 points. The games end when the snitch is caught. “The games are pretty taxing,” Dykes said. “Unlike most sports, there is no stopping unless somebody gets seriously injured. For the most part, it is constantly running across the pitch, and there’s no resting.” Stethem said that the team hopes to participate in three tournaments this year. The first will be the Third Annual Lumberjack Tournament in Flagstaff. The second will be a home-hosted event that the team anticipates to occur in November, as long as logistics are figured out. The third tournament will be the Western Regional to qualify for the World Cup.
Saturday night will give way to a duel between Arizona and Cal State Northridge. The Matadors — the only team in the tournament Arizona has faced before — are fresh off a sweep of the UNLV Invitational after subduing the Rebels twice in addition to Central Kentucky. “I think it will be a good opportunity for us to continue working what we’ve been working on: getting a little more consistent with our serving, passing the ball a little bit better,” head coach Dave Rubio said. “We’re hosting a good group of schools. Alabama State and Loyola-Chicago are going to be a couple mid-majors who are building their programs, and Northridge is every bit as good as we are.” The Wildcats impressed last weekend after sweeping the Green Bay Tournament and were promptly bumped up into the AVCA Coaches Top 25. Senior outside hitter Madi Kingdon contributed heavily and was subsequently named the tournament MVP and Pac-12 Offensive
“We are definitely a threat to other teams, and we can hold our own,” Dykes said. “Last year, we qualified for the World Cup but were unable to attend because of financial reasons.” UA Quidditch players will channel the wizards of the Harry Potter universe as members continue to soar through the field for the rest of the season. “Quidditch is the most involved I have been in the University of Arizona, so I would say I have made a lot of friends,” Stethem said. “Our team has really bonded just like any other sport or club has, and it’s definitely become an important part of my college experience.”

Player of the Week after a 64-kill weekend. Arizona went from being unranked to No. 23 in the country, marking the first time since October 2013 that Arizona has appeared in the Top 25. The ranking also represents the highest placement for the Wildcats since they were pegged as No. 20 in November 2011. While Arizona holds a 3-2 advantage over CSUN in the all-time series history, the Wildcats most recently fell to the Matadors in five sets on Aug. 24, 2012. “They’re an excellent program, and it’s going to be a very good test for us,” Rubio said. “They went to the second round [of the NCAA Tournament] last year and are returning a lot of players as well. Physically, they’re going to match up with us.”

UA Quidditch sets sights on new heights MATT WALL
S
ixteen years ago, the globe was first introduced to the wizarding world of Harry Potter. From riding around on broomsticks to chanting charms, readers everywhere were engulfed in the series’ “magic.” Flash forward to the fall of 2012. UA students Jessica Goodman and Ian Shore created the UA Quidditch club, bringing the traditions of that magical world to our own. Two years later, President Tayler Dykes and Vice President Mark Stethem now lead the team and manage its activities. The two boast about how UA Quidditch is now acknowledged by Campus Recreation as a club sport. “It’s a big responsibility. …
We are going to have [to] step it up in terms of what we are going to do to show the U of A we are just as much of a sport as any other club,” Stethem said. “It has a lot of benefits, which are going to make it a lot easier — like having open access to the fields, which was a logistical factor [when] finding areas to practice at in previous years.” In the past few years, the sport has grown substantially in popularity. According to USA Today, about 200 colleges and universities across the country have club teams. “I think it fills a niche for people that want to do sports but are too intimidated or don’t have the time to commit to the football team or basketball team,” Stethem said. Many spectators are baffled at the
thought of muggle quidditch, but Dykes defended the idea. “People can come together for the love of the movies and books,” Dyke said, “And, at the same time, actually be challenged in a sport that is different.” Practice for UA Quidditch is both physically and mentally demanding. First, the team runs laps for about a mile and does stretches. Then, team members separate into positions for drills and scrimmages. The four different types of positions are beater, seeker, chaser and keeper. Players can choose to wear cleats and mouth guards for protection and use PVC pipes as brooms. The quaffle, which

ARIZONA ESCAPES UTSA IN STYLE
TYLER BAKER/THE DAILY WILDCAT
THE UNLV DEFENSE tackles Arizona freshman running back Nick Wilson (28) during Arizona’s 58-13 win against UNLV at Arizona Stadium on Aug. 29. Arizona (2-0) has won the first two nonconference games in each of Rich Rodriguez’s three years with the Wildcats.
ROBERTO PAYNE Behind big games from several skilled players, the Arizona Wildcats football team defeated UTSA Roadrunners 26-23 at the Alamodome in San Antonio on Thursday. Fresh off a recordbreaking performance in week one against UNLV, the Wildcats struggled to maintain that level of play against UTSA (1-1). “I knew it was going to be a tough environment,” UA head coach Rich Rodriguez said in a press release. “They’re a good football team, a veteran football team. They are well-coached, and we knew we were going to take their best shot and we did.” Most of the inconsistencies began with redshirt freshman quarterback Anu Solomon, who struggled to hit his receivers in stride. Solomon went 17-32 for 231
passing yards and one touchdown, but his overthrows negated much of the big play ability that the offense showed last week. However, this game did start out with a bang. It took just 18 seconds and 85 yards for Arizona (2-0) to make its mark against the Roadrunners. Solomon hit redshirt sophomore wide receiver Cayleb Jones, who was wide open down the sideline, and Jones did the rest as he scampered for the touchdown. The 85-yard throw and catch was Arizona’s first play of scrimmage and one of the few notable offensive plays of the game. Jones led all receivers with 143 yards and one touchdown on four receptions. By comparison, Jones had more than half as many receiving yards in the game as all the UTSA wide receivers had combined — 228 yards.
However, UTSA did not bow down after the opening score. The Roadrunners capped an 11play, 85-yard drive with a 10-yard touchdown with less than one minute left in the first quarter to close the gap. Two first half field goals from UA redshirt junior kicker Casey Skowron gave Arizona an early 13-7 lead in the second quarter. Skowron finished the game with a perfect 4-4 on field goal attempts to increase his season numbers to 7-8. UTSA quickly responded with its second touchdown of the game with about nine minutes left in the second quarter. The rushing touchdown from UTSA wide receiver Kam Jones gave the Roadrunners a 14-13 lead and gave Arizona its first deficit of the season. That was until UA freshman running back Nick Wilson scored a rushing touchdown with 26
seconds left in the second half and gave Arizona the 20-16 lead at the half. Wilson carried the rushing attack with 174 yards and one touchdown on 30 carries. The true freshman running back has recorded backto-back 100+ rushing yard games to start out his Arizona career. “It was pretty incredible, especially on my first start,” Wilson said in a press release. “I really didn’t know what to expect, but the glory goes to my linemen. I couldn’t have done anything without them.” After being down 16-13 late in the first half, Arizona scored 13 unanswered points to increase its lead to 26-16 in the third quarter. UTSA marched back again, though. The Roadrunners scored a touchdown midway through the fourth quarter to make it a one possession game at 26-23. Solomon failed to convert on
a third and short late in the game and forced Arizona to punt the ball back to UTSA. Luckily for Solomon, redshirt senior safety Jared Tevis secured the game with an interception on UTSA’s secondto-last drive. Tevis finished the game with 16 tackles, one interception and 1.5 tackles for loss in one of the best games of his Arizona career. Tevis and sophomore linebacker Scooby Wright III combined for 27 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, one interception and one sack. “We have a few things that I’d like to see us get better at, but I didn’t see anyone lose their poise and I didn’t see anyone panic,” Rodriguez said in a press release. “We’ll get out of here with a win.” — Follow Roberto Payne @HouseofPayne555
