NEWS | POLICE BEAT

BY VANESSA ONTIVEROS @NessaMagnifique

dude, that’s my car!

A car was found damaged in the Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity house’s parking lot Nov. 10.

Before a University of Arizona Police Department officer arrived on the scene, a police aide was sent to speak with the car’s owner.

After speaking with the owner, the police aide was approached by a man who was across the street from the fraternity house at the time, visiting a friend.

The man told the aide that he had seen the damage being inflicted on the car the night at around 11:30 p.m. Nov. 9.

According to the man, two men walked out of the frat house, climbed to the top of the car and proceeded to jump on top of it.

The man told the police aide that he believed one of the jumping men may have been the car’s owner damaging his own car, though he was not positive.

Having been informed of the man’s statements, a UAPD officer made his way to the Alpha Kappa Lambda house, arriving at approximately 12:45 p.m Nov. 10.

The officer spoke with the car’s owner, asking him about what the man had said. He also told the car’s owner that there may have been security footage that captured the incident, though this was not true.

According to the police report, the car’s owner was firm in his stance that he did not damage his own vehicle and agreed to cooperate with the officer.

The officer noted that the owner “seemed glad” that footage existed that would help clear his name, as he would be responsible for the $500 deductible if he had inflicted damage upon his own car.

Damage included dents on the hood and roof of the car. The car’s owner did not cite an estimated total for the damages.

No evidence other than the witness’s account was found that supported the idea of the car’s owner being responsible for the damage.

The car’s owner told the officer that he graduated from UA last year and was staying in the fraternity house for a week to visit a friend.

According to the car’s owner, the fraternity had been experiencing a high number of unauthorized cars parking in the house’s parking lot.

He said he believed that the men who jumped on his car may have been fraternity members who did not realize it was his car when they decided to jump on it.

The car’s owner told the officer that if what he suspected turned out to be true, he would want to deal with the situation civilly.

motorcycle mystery The old adage goes “there’s your version, my version and somewhere in the middle is the truth”. The truth was likely somewhere in the middle for a possible hitand-run that occurred Nov. 13 in the middle of South Campus Drive.

A UAPD officer responded to the scene of a potential hit-and-run on the sidewalk near Centennial Hall at approximately 8 a.m.

The officer spoke with the two men, who were

co-workers. The first man relayed the story to the officer.

According to the first man, he and the second man were crossing South Campus Drive on foot and were at the double yellow lines in the middle of the street when a motorcyclist, also a co-worker, drove extremely close to him.

The motorcyclist allegedly hit the cuff of the first man’s shirt while honking his horn. The first man felt that the motorcyclist had done this intentionally.

The first man led the officer to exactly where the incident had taken place.

He also gave the officer a typed document that listed the motorcyclist’s work performance and behavior from the day before.

According to the officer, none of the work incidents indicated criminal activity. He recommended that issue be dealt with by a human resources office.

The officer then spoke with the motorcyclist.

According to the motorcyclist, he never hit the first man while driving.

He said that the men had already crossed the double yellow lines when he passed them and that he honked his horn to alert them to his presence.

The motorcyclist insisted that he had remained within the boundries of his lane while driving past the men.

With the first man telling one version and the motorcyclist telling another version, the person who could have given some more objective insight into the incident was the second man, who had been crossing the street with the first man when the motorcyclist drove past.

However, the second man told the officer that from his spot he had not been able to see if the motorcyclist had or had not actually made contact with the first man’s shirt.

The officer concluded the report by noting that a hit -and-run accident had not occurred and that he had documented the incident as a courtesy.

Mindless Eating Pitfalls How often do you eat while driving, walking to class, studying or looking at your phone? Do you ever find yourself captivated by a movie or show and find yourself devouring popcorn or snacks with mindless abandon? Under these circumstances it’s difficult to be present for our body’s hunger and fullness cues or for the experience of the food itself.

This can also be a set up for tummy troubles. Let’s explore the pitfalls of mindless eating further.

Tummy Troubles

Missed Hunger & Fullness Cues

Follow these four mindful eating steps to reconnect with your body and create a healthy relationship with food: 1. Assess your hunger 2. Determine which foods will be satisfying 3. Be present while you eat • Limit distractions • Place utensils down between bites of food and chew thoroughly • Notice how food looks, sounds, smells, tastes, feels 4. Identify the point at which you have eaten just enough (not too much, but not too little either)?

It takes a good 20 minutes for the gut to signal the brain when fullness occurs. So, imagine being tired, stressed and hungry. This can easily lead to quick and unconscious eating.

How much food can be consumed in 20 minutes? The message of full won’t happen until it’s too late.

Stuffed, Not Satisfied

Eating is one of the most sensual things we do. It involves the way food looks, sounds, smells, tastes and feels. When our attention is on something else, we may miss out on these senses and not be satisfied with what we have eaten regardless of how much we consumed.

Multi-tasking may be perceived as stress by the body. Stress and digestion do not reside well together.

When our body is preparing to fight or flee, digestion is not the priority.

We are much more prone to bloating, gaseousness, heartburn and symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. In addition, if we are eating rapidly we tend to ingest more air and chew less thoroughly leading to stomach upset.

Handwashing should take 15 seconds. Soap up well.

No need for antibacterial soap.

4

Scrub between fingers, including sides and creases.

5

Rub each palm on top of opposite hand.

WASH BEFORE:

• Touching food • Brushing/flossing teeth • Touching contact lenses • Touching a wound

WASH AFTER: Scrub nails against opposite palm. Use a towel to turn off faucet.

Remove visible dirt with brush or If possible, use the towel to nail file. Rinse hands thoroughly. open the door, then throw it out.

OPINIONS | FINALS PREP

This finals season, get an ‘A’ in self-care COLUMN

BY ALEXIS RICHARDSON @byalexiscr

I

t’s finals time again, and more likely than not, you are scrambling to cram every piece of information from the semester into your head before the dreaded final exam.

We’ve all been there a time or two; I know I have. When I studied biology in the early years of my undergraduate degree, I took biology, chemistry and calculus classes all at once.

I spent days holed up in the library, barely leaving to sleep and attending tutoring 40 hours per week, and the food I ate was on-the-go food that could barely be considered nutritious.

By the time finals were over, I was exhausted, I felt like sleeping for days and, more often than not, I was sick for the first week of the much-needed winter or summer break.

The bottom line is that I wasn’t taking care of myself. For me, taking a break wasn’t an option. I had to pass my classes so I could finish my bachelor’s degree, move on to a graduate degree in Marine Biology, get a job at a marine mammal training facility, train dolphins to aid in dolphin-assisted therapy and do conservation research. It was a wonderful dream, one that I was willing to kill myself to achieve.

Then, I realized what I was doing couldn’t be found on the

spectrum of healthy. Trust me, it was a shock to have someone tell me I was going to make myself more miserable than it was worth. But I digress.

Right now, it’s time for finals, and I have some questions for you: What are you doing for yourself in this time of chaos?

What are you doing to take care of yourself?

I know the stress of finals makes it seem like you don’t have

time for anything else, especially when your grade depends primarily on your midterm and final exams, but remember, you’re not going to do yourself any favors by burning out. Take some time every day to do something unrelated to school. All you need is half an hour, maybe an hour, to decompress.

Go for a run or to the gym, take a walk and get yourself a froyo on University, paint your nails, plan a hike with some friends or take the time to actually cook your dinner instead of getting take-out. Do something that gives your mind a break.

You will feel more refreshed and ready to tackle your work when you step away for a little while.

Think of it like this: When you’re studying and filling your mind with information, it’s like you’re filling a balloon with water. Eventually, that balloon will expand to the point of rupture, because there is no more space. When you step away, you’re giving the balloon, your mind, time to adjust to the information so when you come back, it’s less likely to buckle under the pressure.

The University of Illinois found that breaks increase productivity in a 2011 study. All learning takes adjustments and acclimation. Practicing self-care gives your mind the opportunity to do just that. The campus offers a variety of activities during finals week to help you take a break and center yourself. Your mind and mental health will thank you, and you’ll be better prepared to tackle your finals.

NEWS | FEEDING THE TROOPS

On the front lines of Thanksgiving

BY ALANA MINKLER @alana_minkler

Susan Rodriguez loves to take in members of the community who don’t have a home for Thanksgiving. This year, she and her family took in an army.

Rodriguez, an accountant at Cadden Community Management and a mother of a UA student, invited First Sgt. David Katz and his troop, consisting of 25 members, to her home for Thanksgiving.

The troops were sent last-minute to Tucson for the militarization of the U.S.Mexico Border. Many of the troop members have not been home for Thanksgiving in over two years, having also served in Afghanistan last year, according to Katz.

Formation of the dinner plans Katz and his wife Susan Katz, both UA alumni, are close friends with Rodriguez.

Rodriguez invited Katz over after finding out that he would be in Tucson during Thanksgiving but did not want to leave his troops behind.

“Tell them all to come. It’s not like I haven’t done Thanksgiving for 30 before,” Rodriguez responded.

Rodriguez talked to her husband, Sal Rodriguez, who said he was on board too.

“We wanted to spend time with him, and his stipulation was that he had to bring another 25 guys with him,” Sal Rodriguez joked.

At first, Katz said he wasn’t sure.

“I get uncomfortable when I’m in uniform and people offer to buy me a cup of coffee, let alone have like 25 people in their house,” Katz said.

Eventually, Katz agreed, because he said he knew Susan Rodriguez would not take no as an answer.

“It just seemed like something we should do. I didn’t even hesitate when I thought about it,” Susan Rodriguez said.

Kacey Seeloff, Rodriguez’s daughter and a junior majoring in journalism at the UA, said her mother has always offered to take in friends who didn’t have a home for Thanksgiving.

“She was always one to just take in people,” Seeloff said. “I didn’t think she would be taking in a whole army, but that’s my mother.”

Seeloff said this year she was so inspired by her mother that last Friday night, she offered to have troop members come join “Slack Night,” a night of slack lining that she hosts at the Recreation Center weekly and made them enchiladas for dinner.

“The crazy apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” said Katz, referring to the generosity and outgoing nature of Seeloff and her mother.

COURTESY SUSAN RODRIGUEZ

SUSAN RODRIGUEZ SMILES WITH First Sgt. David Katz and his troop, consisting of 25 members, in her home over Thanksgiving. She invited them after finding out that they wouldn’t be able to go home for the holidays and fundraised money to help pay for all the food.

Thanksgiving on base Katz said typically on Thanksgiving, troop members would have to pay $15 per meal in the chow hall or they would find a family to have a meal with.

Many members just get used to celebrating holidays with their troop.

“It’s kind of like your surrogate family,” Katz said. “If you can’t go home for Thanksgiving, you just make friends, and that becomes your family.”

Ryan Rollings, 20, a crew chief from Maryland, said, “they make a pretty big event for everybody. That way it doesn’t seem like you’re away from home.”

However, Rollings said he misses his family back at home a lot.

“It takes some getting used to. I mean, I was in basic training for holidays my first year, and then I didn’t get to go home my second year, because I was in Afghanistan,” Rollings said.

According to Katz, troop members showed disbelief when they found out and asked if Rodriguez was aware that she was inviting over 25 big, loud and hungry guys.

“They were blown away by this,” Katz said.

Sean Larson, 20, a troop member who works on helicopters, said when he found out the troops would be having Thanksgiving at Rodriguez’ home, he was certainly surprised.

“I was like, ‘no way,’ because we all thought we were going to miss Thanksgiving,” Larson said.

The spirit of giving Rodriguez said they have received $2,100 in cash donations, as well as pies, gift cards and beer from friends, relatives, neighbors, Sprouts and Gentle Ben’s to host the troops.

Rodriguez said whatever donation money is left over will either be going to a fund for the troop members or to a charity of their choice. She said the troop members

are here without a daily allowance from the army and they’re often paying for meals out-of-pocket.

Cienega High School and the UA Outdoor Recreation Center also lent them tables and chairs.

Sal Rodriguez said they also hosted a football game on the Cienega High School football field.

“I mean, it’s a tradition on Thanksgiving to watch football, play lots of football and eat lots of turkey,” Sal Rodriguez said.

For Susan Rodriguez, this is what the holiday is all about.

“I’m just really grateful that there are people who are willing to take a job like that, and because they’re away from their families, and so, you know, if there was something I could do to make their holiday just a little bit happier, that’s what I wanted to do,” Susan Rodriguez said.

NEWS | VIGIL

Transgender community gathers to honor victims

BY EMILY CHRESSANTHIS AND CONNOR FRIES @DailyWildcat

Members of the Tucson transgender and gender-nonconforming community gathered for a vigil at Catalina Park Tuesday, Nov. 20, for the Transgender Day of Remembrance to honor and remember transgender victims of violence.

Theevent was founded in 1999, and originated in Boston and San Francisco, and has been celebrated by the Tucson transgender community since 2001.

This vigil was organized by Abby Jensen, an attorney as well as a member of the Southern Arizona Gender Alliance, and Trans United. Jensen has been the event coordinator for the Transgender Day of Remembrance in Tucson since 2013.

Since she started organizing the event, documented fatal violence against members of the trans community has increased globally by 200 percent, or from one reported death every two days to one every day, according to Jenson.

However, this might be due to better reporting methods as well as an increase in people who openly identify as transgender.

“Most people don’t have a clue about how endemic violence is against trans people, and they have no idea how hate-filled the violence that occurs really is,” Jensen said. “When trans people are murdered, they’re not just shot in the back of the head or stabbed once. They were shot multiple times, bodies are dismembered, their bodies are burned. It’s horrific. It’s of some belief that we need to be erased from the world.”

Jensen shared the pain she has felt each year while reading the long list of names of individuals who have lost their lives to hate-violence for being transgender. This year, she opted to have those in attendance come to the microphone and take turns reading the names instead of reading them herself as she had done previously.

“It’s very difficult to come here every year, and especially when we read all the names. In the past we would also read the manner in which they were killed, and after number two hundred of the person who was stabbed or shot or strangled or drowned, it’s very hard

to take. But people need to understand how endemic that is,” Jensen explained.

At this year’s vigil, they read the names of the 22 transgender and gender-nonconforming individuals who have lost their lives to violence in the United States this year:

There shouldn’t have to be this type of murder happening to a group of people. I hope that one day we don’t have to have these events and these are more events of progress, that there’s been acceptance of trans people in this world.”

This progress is what transgender activists are striving for.

“It’s important for us to remember that even though it seems like trans rights have come forward so far recently, it still has a ways to go,” said graduate student Annie Beguhl.

Six seniors impress during final game The Territorial Cup was the last game for some Arizona football players.

Our football analyst highlights the players who shined during their last hurrah

BY ROB KLEIFIELD @RobKleifield

Arizona collapsed with its postseason hopes on the line. The Wildcats fell 41-40 to their in-state rivals Saturday, despite holding a 19-point lead entering the fourth quarter. A pair of turnovers in the game’s final five minutes completely shifted the outcome. Paired with questionable offensive playcalling on the ‘Cats’ final offensive drive, Arizona was simply doomed down the stretch. There were several senior studs dressed in red, though, on that beautiful November day. Without these players, Arizona would not have had a chance.

Shawn Poindexter The 6-foot-5 product from Centennial High School in Peoria, Ariz., has utilized his extra year of eligibility to the best of his ability. In Arizona’s heartbreaking loss to Arizona State, Poindexter left his mark on the field and in UA record books.

Late in the second quarter of Saturday’s contest, Poindexter made a catch for the ages, missing a defender in the back corner of the end zone for a 23-yard touchdown grab, his eleventh of the 2018 campaign, which tied the Arizona single-season school record. Poindexter’s acrobatic catch came after quarterback Khalil Tate eluded the Sun Devils’ rush and set his feet to heave a prayer into the air, ultimately extending the Wildcats’ lead to 19-7. Without Poindexter’s clutch hands, the ‘Cats wouldn’t have converted on third and long on the game’s final drive deep in their own territory.

Shun Brown Brown may not have found the end zone in this game, but that didn’t prevent him from causing Arizona State’s defense a serious headache. With just over a minute remaining before halftime, Brown corralled a pass from Tate and raced across midfield for a 26-yard gain.

The simple, yet difficult to defend catch-and-run has been a trademark of Brown’s career — this time it set the Wildcats up for another field goal attempt before the intermission. Even when Brown wasn’t making plays in this game, he was challenging the Sun Devils’ defensive backs, often stretching the field and forcing the front seven to play back on their heels. He added a heart-stopping punt return, weaving through white jerseys for 19 yards, more than halfway through the third quarter, gifting the Wildcat offense with a solid starting field position.

Tony Ellison Ellison kicked off Senior Day the right way, reeling in a 28-yard touchdown catch with 3:33 left in the first quarter. Arizona’s first touchdown of the game silenced most of the Sun Devil fans throughout the stadium. It also highlighted Ellison’s sure hands.

Tate’s pass came zipping in over the middle of the field and had enough heat on the ball to zoom by the faces of several defenders. Ellison’s impressive hand-eye coordination was on full display as he nabbed his fifth touchdown catch of the season. Later in the game, Ellison hauled in an eightyard jump pass from Tate to nearly double the Arizona scoring total, 40-21. Tate looked Ellison’s way multiple times down the stretch, but unfortunately the two failed to connect.

Dereck Boles Boles has been Arizona’s best defensive lineman over the last two seasons, and he was quick to show why in this year’s Territorial Cup. Arizona’s defensive anchor, who also played under defensive coordinator Marcel Yates while the two were paired together at Boise State University, helped erase Arizona State running back Eno Benjamin from the first half of the game.

His nastiness at the point of attack set the tone for the ‘Cats’ defense and generated the confidence that Yates’ unit needed to shut down a previously dynamic rushing attack. As the game wore on, the Sun Devil offense managed to find slightly more success on the ground, but it didn’t come without a handful of negative plays — caused largely by Boles’ big body in the middle of the defense.

Josh Pollack The senior kicker has experienced his fair share of ups and downs as a Wildcat, but it’s hard to argue that Pollack didn’t save his best for last. Arizona scored first in the 2018 Territorial Cup behind a 29-yard boot by Pollack. Pollack added three more successful tries to his resume against the Sun Devils, nailing kicks from 23, 36 and 40 yards out. Although sophomore kicker Lucas Havrisik often replaces him when the distance is deemed too long, Pollack didn’t have to share his kicking duties during Saturday afternoon’s one-point loss.

Instead, Pollack got the chance to win the game with 17 seconds left on the clock. Pollack’s four

made field goals improved his season total to 13, connecting 86 percent of the time, and marked a new single-season high for his career.

Dylan Klumph Klumph’s brief time as a Wildcat came to an end on Saturday, but his contributions won’t be forgotten. The graduate-transfer punter was an instant upgrade to Arizona’s special teams unit this season. Although his leg wasn’t featured in a primary role this game, a good sign of offensive success, he still made an impact in the 2018 Territorial Cup. Klumph’s first punt was pinned down inside Arizona State’s five-yard line. His second sailed 57 yards down the field, reversing field position for the ‘Cats in a crucial moment. Klumph averaged 49.3 yards on his three punts, a facet of the game that Arizona could have desperately used in this matchup last season.

ARIZONA RUNNING BACK J.J. Taylor (21) fumbles and turns the ball over to ASU in the fourth quarter on Saturday, Nov. 24 in Arizona Stadium. ASU took home the Territorial Cup by a score of 41-40.

ARIZONA FUMBLES 19-POINT LEAD

BY ALEC WHITE @AlecWhite_UA

If ASU’s Herm Edwards’ motto is “play to win the game,” then Kevin Sumlin and Arizona’s might sound like “play not to lose”.

A 19-point lead in the fourth quarter proved to be the point where Arizona seemingly decided they were content with the lead, letting the Sun Devils rally for a 41-40 win, keeping the Territorial Cup in Tempe.

Questionable play-calling by coaches and mistakes by UA players doomed the Wildcats and allowed the Sun Devils to celebrate wildly on Arizona’s turf.

Here’s what led to Arizona’s demise: Missed two point conversions We likely wouldn’t be having a conversation about Arizona’s fatal fourth-quarter collapse if the Wildcats decided not to go for a twopoint conversion on two separate occasions.

The Wildcats missed both conversion attempts, losing two points by not kicking the PAT. And, wouldn’t you know it, the Wildcats lost by one point.

The first two-point conversion came inexplicably early in the game in the second quarter after Arizona

went up 19-7 on a Khalil Tate to Shawn Poindexter touchdown. Tate rolled to his right but couldn’t find anyone open and was sacked.

Then, in the third quarter, Arizona went up by two possessions again, this time 33-21, and tried to have a 14-point lead. This attempt didn’t work in UA’s favor either, as Tate’s pass in the end zone fell incomplete.

Tate intercepted in the fourth quarter Up 40-21 at the start of the fourth quarter, the Wildcat coaching staff decided to go ultra-conservative on offense. Arizona called eight straight J.J. Taylor runs in the span of two possessions — with no rush over six yards — and the play in which Taylor didn’t touch the ball, Tate threw an interception in UA’s own territory.

ASU got the ball inside the Arizona 25-yard line, and while the Wildcat defense held the Sun Devils to a field goal, it brought the lead to just 40-35 in favor of Arizona.

Taylor fumbles Taylor has been the consistent cog in Arizona’s offense this season through good times and bad. But with 3:19 remaining and the ‘Cats up by

THIS ISN’T HER FIRST RODEO UA student Maria Fernanda Osornio saddles up to perform in the charrería. This sport, like the rodeo, is year-round and the national sport of Mexico

BY JAMIE DONNELLY @JamieRisa11

Clothed in colorful, traditional Mexican dresses, the escaramuzas saddle up and ride into the arena, ready to give a show-stopping performance. Each of the womens’ horses start dancing to the rhythm of the music that fills the air. The crowd cheers and watches in awe as the women execute their choreography, all while riding sidesaddle.

This is a typical day for Maria Fernanda Osornio.

Osornio, a University of Arizona student in the College of Nursing, has been part of an escaramuza team since she was 10 years old and credits her family for her involvement in the sport.

“My family has always been part of the charrería,” Osornio said. “The team was basically made up of my cousins and a few other girls who are friends of the family. We all just started because of our parents.”

Escaramuzas are a part of the charrería, an event that is similar to the rodeo, and is Mexico’s national sport.

The escaramuzas are girls who ride sidesaddle on horses while they perform choreography.

“We just do a routine of 12 movements that are put into place by the federación in Mexico,” Osornio said. “They make up the rules and renew them every three to four years.”

In the middle of the mens’ event, the women come in and perform their routines around the circular part of the arena, according to Osornio.

“In state competitions, the day is broken down into three or four separate events,” Osornio said. “The girls start out COURTESY MARIA FERNANDA OSORNIO by doing what’s called the punta, where MARIA FERNANDA OSORNIO, FRONT, rides her horse out into the arena with her team before a performance by her escaramuzas team. The escaramuzas are women two women from each team start out who ride sidesaddle on horses while they perform choreography to music. at the end of the arena and do a gallop all the way into the center of the arena, they are able to make sure that they are everyone that is involved.” professionals that were there, but I think where they slide the horse. The longer it is Osornio said she loves being able we did pretty good,” Osornio said. “We and the less amount of times that the back both mentally and emotionally focused.

In addition to their competitions and to continue a tradition that is mostly placed 100th out of 120 teams, so it wasn’t feet of the horse come off the ground, the practices, Osornio and her team were able practiced in Mexico as well as the lifelong too bad for our first time.” more points we get.” to attend nationals this year in Zacatecas, friendships that come from the sport.

“I’ve only ever been in three teams, going to competitions, though. It gives the Osornio and her team practice for two to “It was great,” Diaz said. “It was amazing women the opportunity to explore their and every time that I’ve been in a team, I three hours, twice a week. knowing this was everything we worked feel closer to the girls,” Osornio said. “We culture, bond with their horses and, most “We start out by warming up, and then for so many years.

Osornio said. “Sometimes we practice our celebrates Mexican tradition.”

ASU’S ENO BENJAMIN (3) scores a touchdown for ASU during the game Saturday, Nov. 24, in Arizona Stadium. ASU beat Arizona and won the Territorial Cup with a final score of 41-40.

five points, Taylor couldn’t cleanly handle a hand-off from Tate. The ball hit the turf with the Sun Devils pouncing on it first.

ASU capitalized on the very next play, as running back Eno Benjamin found an open lane in the Wildcat defense and burst to the end zone for a 22-yard score to put the Sun Devils up 41-40.

Last drive incompletions Despite blowing a 19-point lead in the fourth quarter, Arizona still had a chance to win the game with three minutes remaining. On several different occasions, Tate had a chance to change the outcome.

An overthrow to Shun Brown and a dropped pass by Stanley Berryhill III are the two specific instances that come to mind, as both would have resulted in touchdowns.

Wide right Arizona kicker Josh Pollack lost his job as the primary field goal kicker to Lucas Havrisik early in the year but deserves credit for earning it back late in the year. The decision to return to Pollack paid off, as he was a perfect 4-4 on field goals against ASU until the final drive.

On a third down from the ASU 31yard line — and after two different

timeouts on the field — offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone dialed up a Taylor run up the middle instead of pressing for more yardage. Taylor got four yards, setting up a long field goal attempt for Pollack.

None of his previous four kicks on the day had been from over 40 yards, and he missed the potential game-winning kick wide right with 11 seconds remaining.

Final thoughts The 92nd installment of the Territorial Cup will no doubt go into the history books of each team, but for two completely different reasons.

For ASU, it put an exclamation mark on Edwards’ first year at the helm, in which the move to hire the former ESPN employee was heavily scrutinized. The Sun Devils finish the regular season at 7-5 with a bowl appearance looming.

As for Arizona, the “New Era” never lived up to the billing, as the Wildcats were inconsistent week-toweek and could never gather enough momentum to be considered a serious Pac-12 contender.

Sumlin has decisions to make regarding his coaching staff as Mazzone’s offense and Marcel Yates’ defense were under fire plenty of times this season.

That Happen While You Sleep

2. IMMUNE SYSTEM IS BOOSTED.

The production of certain proteins (which helps fight disease) increase while we sleep. Many studies have shown that sleep deprivation leads to a decrease in white blood cell count (cells that are integral to our immune system defense and response). Getting enough sleep plays an important role in our ability to fight off, fight, and recover from infections and illnesses.

Getting enough sleep each night is just plain awesome for your emotional and physical health. So what really goes on while we sleep? A lot. Here are 3 of the many cool things that happen while we sleep:

1. MEMORIES ARE STORED.

The brain forms new memories, consolidates older ones, and makes connections between older and more recent memories. This helps us to store the new information we received and enables us to better recall it later.

3. APPETITE IS REGULATED

Hormones have an effect on our feelings of fullness and hunger. As a result, not getting enough sleep can lead to weight gain, in part due to late night snacks and meals. Experts recommend getting between 7-9 hours of sleep per night. In a perfect world, you would sleep until you wake up on your own (without the assistance of an alarm clock). But since we don’t live in a perfect world, try these tips to help you sleep better!

Empowering women through pole fitness

BY TAYLOR GLEESON @tgleezy

In a small fitness studio in the heart of downtown Tucson, patrons are encouraged to try a different kind of workout aimed at people who want to “have fun while strengthening their bodies.”

Kinetic Arts Tucson, located at 17 E. Toole Ave., is a fitness studio that teaches pole, dance and acrobatics to women and men of all ages.

Brenna Mirae, the owner of KAT, became the first person to teach pole in Tucson in 2004.

“It was a lifelong dream,” Mirae said. “I saw a vision, and I created it.”

Mirae has been a pole dancer since 1999 and opened KAT on June 22, 2018. She said pole builds confidence and is something that teaches women of all ages strength.

“You can be strong at any age,” Mirae said. “It’s okay to be a strong woman, and I think that you can’t find that in a lot of places.”

Each instructor at KAT describes the studio as a community that encourages everyone to be the best they can and to set achievable goals.

Anna Mirocha, a pole instructor at KAT, said that pole has helped her feel empowered. Describing it as scary at first, Mirocha said, “that’s part of the whole empowerment — initially feeling intimidated, and then finding out you can do it.”

Mirocha started doing pole in 2015 and teaches several classes at the studio.

“I feel like a totally different person. It takes a lot of strength in your soul and your mind, and the passion within you,” Mirocha said.

In the past, pole has been a controversial form of exercise, but with it becoming more popular, many people are starting to utilize the workout, according to Mirae.

“What’s really beautiful to see is the acceptance that’s beginning to form around pole. So many people are hearing about it as a great way to stay in shape,” Mirae said.

Both Mirocha and Mirae said they noticed women of all ages, from college students to mothers, are beginning to take pole to stay in shape. Mirocha said more and more men are starting to take classes as well.

Both Mirocha and Mirae stressed the importance of body confidence in women, and both agreed that pole is a great way for women of all ages to feel empowered and more confident about their bodies.

KAT offers a variety of classes, including flexibility, aerial hoops and cardio, all with the goal of making the studio a “fun place to work out” while also being a welcoming place for women and men.

Both said they hope this studio and the classes will help grow customers’ self-confidence and help them become part of a family.

“There’s just something about it [when] girls help each other,” Mirocha said.

Kinetic Arts Tucson is offering a WildKAT Pack for students, with five classes for $49, and also offers an introductory special of three classes for $23.

Kinetic Arts Tucson has classes available Monday through Sunday with different levels for anyone from beginners to more advanced dancers.

To those who are wary of pole, Mirocha said, “try it, and you might have your life changed. If I had not tried it, I don’t know where I’d be right now.”
