County approves $10M for road repair

By Rachel Gottfried DAILY WILDCAT

Pima County’s beaten roads are finally getting a facelift.

On Tuesday, The Pima County Board of Supervisors approved delegating $10 million to road repair.

The county says it will spend about $5 million on repairs in the next few months alone.

In Pima County, the number of major streets in poor or failed condition has tripled in five years. There

are 1,800 miles of roads to maintain.

“Over 61 percent of our roads are in the poor or failed category,” said Priscilla Cornelio, director of the Pima County Department of Transportation.

But as more roads fall into disrepair, less funding is available for them. The county has 10 percent less state funding for roads this year than it had in 2002.

“A lot of that is related to these legislative sweeps where the state Legislature has taken local road

money to balance their budget,” said Chuck Huckelberry, the county administrator. Huckelberry said part of this is due to people driving less frequently because of high gas prices.

This causes there to be less revenue all around, he said.

Huckelberry provided the Board of Supervisors with 18 suggestions for how Pima County could fix its streets. Of the 18, Huckelberry favored five of the proposals that the board came up with.

One of these proposals was to

spend $2.5 million from this year’s pavement repair fund and $2.5 million from next year’s fund to do 17 projects covering 27 miles of pavement on major streets. The second was to borrow $5 million from bond funds that have been assigned to other long-term road projects. This money could pay for an additional 77 miles of residential street repairs.

The borrowed money would need to be repaid in three to five years in order to complete the projects that the bonds were originally approved

for, Huckelberry said.

Huckelberry and the board also considered increasing the transportation department’s general fund, selling bonds and using up to $5 million of the county’s $35 million general fund reserves. Taking from the reserves would be a last resort, Huckelberry added.

“I will be supporting Chuck’s five recommendations, but it’s more than potholes — it’s getting

Transportation officials break ground on the construction of Tucson’s Sun Link public transportation project outside of the BIO5 Institute on Thursday. The ceremony was part of the modern streetcar project’s kickoff celebration, where Mayor Jonathan Rothschild announced the streetcar’s official name. Sun Link will connect the UA to the downtown area.

Streetcar project kicks off

By Brittny Mejia DAILY WILDCAT

The modern streetcar project shifted into high gear Thursday, as hundreds of people turned out for its kickoff celebration.

Mayor Jonathan Rothschild welcomed attendees and introduced U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, Arizona Rep. Raúl Grijalva, Arizona Rep. Ed Pastor, Oro Valley’s

Mayor Satish Hiremath and UA President Eugene Sander.

Rothschild said the streetcar, named Sun Link, will benefit the city by connecting businesses and the UA to a “downtown that is finally coming into its own” and creating jobs.

“This is not only about a streetcar system,” LaHood said. “This is about the jobs that will be provided that would not have been provided

if it hadn’t been for the vision of so many in this community.”

LaHood thanked state leaders, community members and construction workers for their help and support of the project. He emphasized the desire from Washington, D.C., to get people to work, get them out of their cars and counting on public transportation.

“Change is never easy, but we need to stay with the time and stay

current,” Rothschild said. “That is really the significance for us.”

LaHood talked about former Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords’ help in initiating the project. He said Giffords called him more than once asking for a TIGER Grant to fund a streetcar for Tucson. TIGER Grants are provided by the U.S. Department of Transportation to “fund projects

Pencil lead to be used in electronics UA researchers are finding ways to replace silicon with graphite

By Kyle Mittan DAILY WILDCAT

Laptops may have made handwriting notes a thing of the past, but the pencil — or at least pencil lead — is making a comeback, as UA researchers are developing ways to use pencil lead as a conductor in electronics.

Brian LeRoy, an assistant professor in the physics department, along with Matthew Yankowitz and Daniel Cormode, two physics graduate students, published their findings in the science journal Nature Physics.

Graphite, which is used to make pencil lead, can be broken down into

one atomic layer and then becomes graphene, Yankowitz said. “People are interested in graphene because they think that it can replace silicon in next-generation electronics,” he added.

The layers themselves are microscopically thin, hexagonal lattices, Cormode said. If a sheet of paper were as tall as a desk, a layer of graphene would be thinner than an actual sheet of paper sitting on the desk.

Silicon has long served as the primary electronic conductor for products in the technology market like today’s computers, and, as a metal, works as an on and off switch. This allows electrons to conduct through the device when turned on, immobilizing them when turned off.

LeRoy and fellow researchers who specialize in studying the electronic

properties of certain materials are looking to replace silicon with graphene, which tends to be more efficient at moving the electrons.

Silicon is a very resistant metal by nature, Cormode said, and produces heat. In turn, devices must power a coolant source, like fans. Graphene works as a less-resistant conductor, which will not only move the electrons through the device faster, but also avoid the heat production that silicon’s resistance causes.

After determining graphene’s electronic properties, the trick was controlling the electrons in the material. This is done by placing the graphene lattice on boron nitride, a material that is equivalent in structure to graphite. Because both materials are structured in hexagonal

Proposed state legislation could criminalize harassing or annoying people through various forms of communication, but the bill’s vague language could kill its hopes of passing.

Arizona Rep. Ted Vogt, a Republican from District 30, has been working to refine the language of an Arizona statute that makes it illegal to use a telephone with the intent to terrify, intimidate or harass. House Bill 2549 would make it a crime to harass anyone through any form of electronic communication, including the Internet. Violators could go to jail for six months.

The bill has gone through both the House and Senate in different forms, but is still awaiting final approval from the House. Vogt said he is revamping the bill due to concerns raised about its language being too broad, as well as the fact that some profane language on mediums like the Internet is used in a joking manner. He will be clearing up some of the bill’s language in a committee hearing next week.

The bill currently states that it is “unlawful for any person, with intent to terrify, intimidate, threaten, harass, annoy or offend, to use any electronic or digital device and use any obscene, lewd or profane language or suggest any lewd or lascivious act, or threaten to inflict physical harm to the person or property of any persons.” In addition, the bill would make it illegal to stalk anyone through any electronic form of communication.

CEOs, experts stress new retail strategies

By Yara Askar DAILY WILDCAT

Corporate CEOs, technology experts and members of the UA community partnered up to address challenges in a new era of retailing on Thursday at the 16th annual Global Retailing Conference.

The UA College of Retailing and Consumer Sciences put on the conference at the JW Marriott Starr Pass Resort. The conference will conclude Friday at 1 p.m.

“The world of future retailing is constantly changing and if you are not changing, you are behind,” said Martha Van Gelder, director of the Terry J. Lundgren Center for Retailing.

Presenters focused on future retailing strategies that would engage customers of the 21st century. The first day of the two-day conference included representatives from top global companies, including the president and CEO of Macy’s and the CEO of Home Depot, among others.

Throughout the event, speakers focused on the importance of developing stronger innovations through the use of technology.

“Figuring out the right mix of technology that gives you information about what consumers want and reconfigure your organization in a way that it is still affordable for costumers,” Van Gelder said.

Van Gelder said the most important part of the event focused on using the “omni-channel strategy.” Employing this strategy would bring together stores as well as online and mobile capabilities to serve customers whenever they shop, said Peter Sachse, Macy’s chief stores officer.

“Every three weeks something new comes up and we have to move faster to adapt to the new concept through visibility, flexibility and stability,” said Kasey Lobaugh, an expert in Omnichannel retailing.

Through omni-channel retailing, by the end of July, Sachse said Macy’s will increase its sales, gross margins and

reduce the shipping costs throughout all 292 Macy’s locations.

In addition, presenters addressed how to reconfigure local stores to make it easier for consumers to receive their merchandise on time. Van Gelder said this requires the use of technology that blends personalization and focusing on today’s generational needs.

Cody Villanueva, a freshman studying pre-retailing and consumer science, said the conference was a great opportunity to see how people are involved in the retailing business field.

“It was interesting to see how technology is affecting our daily lives,” Villanueva said. “It shows me how fast the world is developing as a society.”

David Calhoun, CEO of Nielsen, focused his speech on connecting with multicultural customers. He stressed the importance of engaging with the customer.

“It is more about satisfying their demand by reaching out to them through ads that identify with their ethnicity,” he said.

by El-Fagr weekly. “Those who demand that I run, like a majority of this nation’s citizens, are in a predicament … especially after the Brotherhood decided to field one of its leaders for the presidency after it pledged not to.

“That change struck horror in the souls of members of Egyptian society,” the former military officer added. “If the Brotherhood’s candidate wins the presidential election, Egypt will be turned into a religious state. All state institutions will be controlled by the Brotherhood.”

The Muslim Brotherhood and ultraconservative Islamist Salafis have called for a rally tomorrow in Tahrir Square to protest Suleiman’s candidacy.

is good, Bambauer said, its current draft would be unable to protect free speech rights. Without work, it won’t take long for a federal court to “strike it down,” he said.

Students who have experienced cyberbullying, like journalism junior Ashley Nevel, say they hope the bill will pass.

“If it wasn’t for my hardheaded, ‘I don’t care’ attitude, I would have reacted to it a lot differently,” Nevel explained. She said she was harassed via Twitter and other social media websites. “But any form of bullying or harassment for no reason or motive is just wrong and should be stopped.”

Other students said they were concerned that the bill could affect what they write on the Internet.

“I think the Internet should be completely free, with no restrictions whatsoever,” said journalism junior

Drew McCullough.

James Mitchell, an assistant professor of practice in the UA School of Journalism, said he thinks this will be a “superfluous” and “deeply silly law.”

“We already have a law against threatening,” he said. “Our right to annoy and offend people is protected by the First Amendment.”

Toni Massaro, a law professor in the James E. Rogers College of Law, said she thinks the bill aims to deal with a more specific issue.

“It looks to me that the state is trying to deal with the serious problem of cyberbullying and harassment,” she said.

The bill’s language is too vague and terms like “profane,” “lewd” and “annoy or offend” are overly broad, Massaro said. If the bill were to pass in its current form, she added, the courts would probably wait to see how the language is applied and enforced.

the purposes of the bill, includes “any wired or wireless communication device and multimedia storage device.”

Questions have also been raised about the bill’s constitutionality, as some believe that it could violate the First Amendment right of free speech.

Vogt said this is not his intention — he simply wants to protect individuals from unwanted harassment and intimidation. He hopes to make this clear through language revisions in the bill, he said.

Derek Bambauer, an associate professor of law at Brooklyn Law School in New York who will be a UA professor in the fall, called the bill “blatantly unconstitutional.” Although the bill’s overarching goal

shapes, placing graphite’s lattice onto the lattice created by boron nitride allows researchers, through relativistic quantum mechanics, to control the flow of electrons through the graphene.

Using a scanning tunneling microscope, LeRoy and his colleagues can monitor the positioning of the graphene. The slightest movement of the lattice can change the current of the electrons drastically.

The difficulty with this process, Yankowitz said, is its counterintuitiveness. Placing the lattices together and rotating them creates openings, but the openings don’t necessarily allow the electrons to go through.

Suleiman’s presidential bid symbolizes the fractious politics, much of it driven by religion, that has gripped the nation in recent weeks. The former intelligence director’s late emergence in the race increases the pressure on former Foreign Minister Amr Moussa, who was leading in the most recent poll, and Muslim Brotherhood nominee Khairat el-Shater, a former political prisoner and wealthy businessman.

“If Egypt falls under the rule of (Islamist) groups, it will suffer isolation and its people will suffer from the inability to communicate with others,” Suleiman said in comments published Thursday

This is a problem when making electronics, he said, as the electrons will continue to move through the material even when the device is switched off.

With the research still in the early exploratory process, LeRoy said graphene’s implementation into electronics is still well into the future.

“I would say there’s probably limited applications where you may want to use it,” he added. “I doubt you’re ever, at least in the next 15 years, going to buy a computer that has its CPU replaced with some graphene, but maybe your cellphone will have some high-speed transistor in it that’s made out of graphene for a very specific application.”

But the law cannot take effect unless it is ratified by the ruling military council. That doesn’t seem likely.

Suleiman, who angered protesters last year as the public face of a crumbling regime, has warned in recent days that the Muslim Brotherhood wants to turn Egypt into an Islamic state.

CAIRO — The Egyptian parliament Thursday passed a law barring top officials from deposed President Hosni Mubarak’s regime from running for president, a move certain to draw legislators into a fierce political battle with the country’s military leaders ahead of next month’s election.

The legislation was aimed to upend Omar Suleiman, onetime spy chief and vice president. His entry into the race last week drew venom from all political sides, including secular liberals and the Muslim Brotherhood, which controls nearly 50 percent of parliament.

Murray reflects on road to office

By Stewart McClintic Daily Wildcat

Many students know her as ASUA president-elect, but some may not know her outside of her office.

Katy Murray, a marketing junior from Dallas, has had a long career that landed her the position as president of the Associated Students of the University of Arizona for the 2012-13 school year.

As a sophomore, Murray wanted to get involved with the school, so she decided to run for a position on ASUA’s Spring Fling Committee, she said. She originally ran for the position of public relations director for Spring Fling, but ended up becoming the corporate director of the entire event.

“That’s when I fell in love with the ASUA,” she said.

From there, friends encouraged her to apply for a cabinet position within ASUA. She said after meeting with James Allen, current ASUA president, she decided to apply to become his chief of staff.

She got that, too.

After serving all year as Allen’s right hand, her peers again encouraged her to go for a bigger position than that next year: president. So, she met with Allen once again to find out if the option was viable. It was.

After convincing herself to run, she said her motto became, “Go big or go home.” Although she never thought she would win, she told herself throughout the election process that it was a good experience

to have, regardless of the result, she said.

Serving the UA community is not Murray’s only passion, however. She describes herself as “very girly,” a “coffee addict,” a “cat lover” and enthusiastic reader.

Murray loves being in Arizona, she said, but calls herself a “Texas girl” through and through. Murray has an orange tabby cat at home named Boots, her favorite book is “Pride and Prejudice” and she goes to Starbucks at least twice a day.

Those closest to her call her loyal and fun to be around.

Krystina Nguyen, a biology sophomore and one of Murray’s best friends, recalled how she and Murray have been on many “random adventures” to Coffee X Change at

Day said she does not want to fix the roads at the cost of facing more debt.

“This is way beyond potholes anymore; this is road reconstruction,” said Steve Kozachik, Ward Six Tucson City Council member.

“Three, four, five years ago, we were talking about potholes. Now we’ve got a significant issue with respect to just rebuilding the roads, rebuilding the infrastructure.”

Kozachik said because this is a Alex kulpinski / Daily Wildcat project that the county cannot afford, Pima County is allocating $10 million to update roads in Tucson. he wanted to take it to the voters.

“Ask the voters this: ‘Would you Neither Day nor Huckelberry said we have 1,800 miles of road and like to take 20 percent of the tax they supported asking the voters — with $10 million that we have we you’re already paying for building they agreed that Pima County offi- are doing 104 miles,” Cornelio said. “So, you can see we have a road capacity and allocate it for road cials must find the solution. construction?’” he asked.

“The unfortunate thing is that long way to go.”

Allen, who said he has been Murray’s mentor throughout her term as chief of staff, said “best qualities carry with her in and out of the office” and that he thinks she will be a great representative of the undergraduate student body.

Murray doesn’t understand how one thing going wrong can ruin a person’s day, Allen said.

For her, three things must go awry to make a day average, not bad.

Although Allen said she’s “a little innocent” and it’s easy to tell she was raised right, “anyone who takes her kindness as weakness is a fool.”

“I will never forget the big hug she gave me two years ago when we were downtown making the announcement of the largest street car transit grant that we have given anywhere in the country, right here in Tucson,” LaHood added.

LaHood suggested that Giffords’ name be included along with Sun Link for the project in recognition of her instrumental role. His suggestion was met with a round of applause.

Audience members donned hard hats and listened to a mariachi band while the speakers and a few distinguished guests shoveled dirt, breaking ground on the construction stage.

“I think this is a wonderful project and it will enhance the community of Tucson for years to come,” said Bruce Vaughan, director of UA Real Estate Administration. “I think it will help economically, with transportation, moving people around, and I think it will help redevelop downtown Tucson.”

Arkansas coach’s lies offer life lesson Luke Davis Daily Wildcat

G

eorge Washington once said, “It is better to offer no excuse than a bad one.” If only this advice had been delivered to Bobby Petrino.

Petrino, the head football coach at the University of Arkansas, was fired on Monday for hiring his mistress and misleading the university about his relationship with her. Petrino, who is a married father of four, hired 25-year-old Jessica Dorrell, didn’t tell the school about his conflict of interest and at one point paid her $20,000.

Petrino “engaged in a pattern of misleading and manipulative behavior designed to deceive” the athletic staff, said Arkansas athletic director Jeff Long. The truth came to light only after Dorrell was present at a motorcycle accident that Petrino was involved in.

Petrino’s failure to tell the truth and be honest about his mistakes turned a minor infraction into a massively embarrassing situation for himself and his family.

We live in a forgiving society.

We accept people who tell the truth and see confessions as a sign of progress. When people lie it’s because they are afraid, worried that their flaws will be exposed.

Petrino’s actions were disgusting.

His lost soul led him to cheat on his wife, then used government money to pay for his personal life. And when it all came to surface, he tried to sweep it under the rug by lying to his supporters, his family and his boss.

“

The strongest quality in a good person is the ability to learn from his or her mistakes. If Petrino can do that, he will be a stronger and better person for it.

“

Petrino was a head college football coach. He was put in power not only to win games but also to influence and guide these young adults. Football, more than any other sport, can teach players life lessons such as how to be a team player and how to be a man, but apparently Petrino hasn’t learned those values yet.

However, he isn’t the only one.

Petrino isn’t the first and won’t be the last individual to make a mistake and try finding a way around it. But people can use his fiasco as a life lesson: When you’re caught red-handed, just admit it.

The University of Arkansas community may have accepted Petrino’s flaws if he himself had accepted them. Instead Petrino wanted to hide them so it would seem as if he was perfect. No one is perfect, and no one will ever be held to those standards.

When people lie about themselves it’s because they want to protect themselves. They want to be seen as something they are not. But what really happens when someone lies is it creates more imperfections.

Petrino lost a dream job and will most likely be out of a job for a while. Perhaps he will use this time to reflect on himself. The strongest quality in a good person is the ability to learn from his or her mistakes.

If Petrino can do that, he will be a stronger and better person for it.

Standardized tests can’t measure performance of college students With that in mind, the New Leadership Alliance for Student Learning and Accountability hopes to implement a way to measure how much college Dan students actually learn. Early this Desrochers year, the New Leadership Alliance Daily Wildcat released guidelines that pushed for colleges to systematically rates. These are hardly a measure “gather evidence of student s a junior in high school, of how well a school teaches.

Still, the most glaring problem is that the most important things you are learning in college aren’t measureable on a multiple-choice test. College is about preparing you for the real world.

I may have chosen the least prestigious of the schools I was accepted to, but that doesn’t mean I will learn less than someone at a more prestigious one. The UA has a lot of great teachers who focus on getting us to learn rather than on their research.

The attempt to judge how much we learn may be a valiant effort on the part of the New Leadership Alliance, but if it means students sitting in a room for multiple hours and filling in tiny bubbles, it can wait until a better idea comes along. For now, we just have to have faith that we are learning just as much as the students at Stanford University.

MAILBAG & ONLINE In response to the April 5 column “Limiting prom dress selection unfair to students”: Girls that attend the prom are usually 15-18 years old and are impressionable students, unlike the fake Hollywood stars that are older and use their bodies to advance their careers.

These girls do not realize the impression they are giving by wearing such revealing outfits.

It is immature and irresponsible opinions such as yours that encourages children to try to look older than they are when they are too young to realize the consequences of their appearance.

As the fashion world and clothing industry continue to throw these revealing outfits at our children at younger and younger ages, is it any wonder that children are kidnapped, molested and murdered at higher and higher — Jane Schweri, rates?

It is urgent — we have only a few days — for all of us to call Gov. Jan Brewer and implore her to reject House Bill 2780. Her telephone number is 602-542-4331.

Regarding dogs involved in herding livestock, this terrible bill attempts to strip away from cities and counties much of the authority they have now to adopt or enforce cruelty laws.

According to HB 2780, such a dog could be punished or abused, and local laws could not be applied to help the dog if the act was supposedly “necessary” for the safety of livestock. This is only one instance of the exemptions from local cruelty laws the bill provides for abusers.

It is ranchers who are lobbying for the passage of this dreadful bill.

We must all call the governor immediately to help defenseless dogs.

Police Beat Remark about stay-at-home

mothers sparks media storm

By Elliot P. Hopper Daily Wildcat

Mcclatchy tribune

Headlight harshness

University of Arizona Police Department officers were patrolling campus at 12:08 a.m. on Monday when they pulled over a student to tell him that his headlights were off.

Officers asked the man for his driver’s license and registration. He replied, “I don’t have my driver’s license on me. I left it at home.” Instead, he told officers his full name and date of birth.

They found that his license was suspended and that he had an upcoming court date. They also found that he previously failed to pay a fine to the Casa Grande City Court.

Officers told the man about his violations, and he said, “I paid the fines to the court but I never sent a letter to the MVD (Motor Vehicle Division).” Officers said while that may be true, state law requires the vehicle be impounded for a minimum of 30 days.

Officers cited the man for driving with a suspended license and warned him for driving without his headlights on. The officers contacted the man’s dad, who owned the vehicle, and told him ways he could get his car back. Tucson Wrecker Service eventually towed the car.

That’s not my name

A UA employee was walking in Centennial Hall when he noticed a homeless man walking in behind him. The homeless man was wearing a name tag that said “Steven.” The employee asked the man if he needed help finding the exit, and the homeless man mumbled and walked away. Minutes later, another UA employee came to Centennial Hall and said his name tag was not in his office.

The employees asked UAPD to find the homeless man. Officers and employees started to search for him. The employee who had his name tag stolen told officers that his door was open in case students wanted to come talk to him. The employees also said that although they were not totally sure if the homeless man took the name tag, they suspected so.

Officers found a pair of dark pants and keys in a nearby restroom, and said they suspected that the items belonged to the homeless man.

WASHINGTON — It was the gift Mitt Romney has been seeking — and it came from a Democrat.

Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen’s comment Wednesday night that Ann Romney “never worked a day in her life” touched off a media firestorm that raged Thursday, giving Romney — who trails President Barack Obama among female voters — an opportunity to bash Obama and proclaim his own commitment to women’s issues.

Obama sought to repair the damage in an interview Thursday. “There’s no tougher job than being a mom,” he told a Cedar Rapids, Iowa, TV station.

“Anybody who would argue otherwise, I think, probably needs to rethink their statement.”

But with women poised to play a critical role in the election, the Romney campaign sought full advantage and Ann Romney appeared on Fox News to say that her “career choice was to be a mother” and that her husband “respects women that make those different choices.”

“I think all of us need to know we need to respect choices women make,” Romney said.

The furor began when Rosen, a top Democratic activist, told CNN that Romney was unable to relate to middle-class

women because she did not work while raising the couple’s five sons.

Republicans pounced and looked to tie Rosen to the Obama administration, noting that White House logs suggested that she had visited more than 30 times. Romney supporters on a conference call said the remarks were an insult to all stay-at-home mothers and reflected an Obama administration disdain for women.

The campaign shot out a Fox News interview with Barbara Bush, the wife of former President George H.W. Bush, saying she was “sorry that (Rosen) took a knock at those of us who chose ... to stay home and take care of their children.”

The administration and Democrats moved just as quickly to distance themselves from Rosen’s remarks. Michelle Obama — a mother of two and a former hospital executive — noted on Twitter that “every mother works hard, and every woman deserves to be respected.”

Obama’s campaign managers suggested that Rosen apologize, and Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said on Twitter that she was “disappointed” by Rosen’s remarks. “As a mother of 3, there’s no doubt that raising children is work.”

Rosen backtracked Thursday afternoon, apologizing for her “poorly

chosen” words.

She said in a written statement her remarks were in response to Romney referring to his wife as a “better person to answer questions about women than he is,” and that she was “discussing his poor record on the plight of women’s financial struggles.”

But she suggested in a CNN interview that the Republican reaction was a “distraction that his campaign is forcing on the American people to avoid his record.”

The controversy effectively drowned out a Democratic attempt to remind voters about the sixth anniversary of Romney’s health-care law in Massachusetts.

Obama’s campaign Thursday morning released a video needling Romney for the measure. It included a cameo by a former Romney consultant who also worked with Obama and called the Obama health-care law “the national version” of Romney’s.

Instead, Romney’s camp orchestrated a conference call with women Romney supporters, assailing Obama’s record.

“This administration would do well to stop disrespecting stay-at-home moms,” said Penny Young Nance, president and chief executive of Concerned Women for America, suggesting Rosen’s remarks were “indicative of a larger problem within the administration.”

Marines gather to ‘Honor The Dead’ at Camp Pendleton Mcclatchy tribune

CAMP PENDLETON, Calif.—His voice quivering, Marine Cpl. Joseph Orr spoke Thursday of the death of his friend and fellow scout-sniper in Afghanistan.

“I broke down in tears when I heard about his death,” Orr said. “It hurt, and it’s painful. I love you, and I miss you, Ben.” Lance Cpl. Benjamin Schmidt was one of five Marines from the 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment killed during the battalion’s recent deployment to Helmand province, long a Taliban stronghold.

For 90 minutes, other Marines told a memorial gathering at Camp Pendleton of their love for the fallen: Schmidt; Staff Sgt. Stephen Dunning; Lance Cpl. Kenneth Cochran; Cpl. Jonluke Bateman; and Sgt. William Stacey.

Schmidt, 24, was killed by “friendly fire.” Dunning, 31, died while trying to find and detonate the enemy’s roadside bombs. Cochran and Bateman, both 22, were electrocuted in an accident on base.

Stacey, 23, a squad leader, was killed by a roadside bomb while on a foot patrol.

“Today we remember five of our brothers,” said Lt. Col. William Vivian, the battalion commander. “These five young men inspire us all.”

Capt. Thaddeus Drake quoted a funeral speech attributed to Army Gen. George Patton: “It is foolish and wrong that we mourn these men. Instead we should thank God that such men exist.”

At the end of the ceremony, Sgt. Maj. Donald K. Williams gave the traditional order “Honor The Dead,” which was followed by “Taps.”

“He had a lot of plans, but he wouldn’t want us to be sad,” Casey Schmidt, 22, said of her brother.

MOLDOVA to MEXICO UA senior ready to tackle music industry

ariana Ivanovna’s friends joke that her accent is confused. Not quite Russian, not quite Mexican, it’s one of the first noticeable vestiges of her past, and a reflection of the Valentine’s Day baby’s mixed heritage.

The tall brunette has the stature of an eastern European model but “I feel more Mexican than anything,” she admits. Moving between continents was child’s play for the daughter of two parents from two very different sides of the world — thenSoviet Russia and Mexico. Eventually, Ivanovna’s globetrotting brought her to Tucson, to the UA, and to the stage at this year’s Spring Fling.

After moving from Moldova to Mexico as a toddler, Ivanovna spent close to a decade Music is my passion. south of the border, where she started to learn piano and began her preteen life. She got a Marketing, it’s insurance keyboard as a Christmas gift at age 8, but said if my passion doesn’t she felt uninspired by private piano lessons in work out.

Mexico. Everything changed when her father got a job in Tucson, and what was supposed to be a year or two stateside turned into a permanent position and a life-altering shift for Ivanovna at age 11.

“That’s when I started writing,” she said. She explained that she didn’t know much English, so her feelings were more easily expressed in letters, which turned into poems, and then into songs. A foray into two years of opera singing, which she soon shed for her high school’s show choir, helped her love for performance grow from a hobby into a passion. She knew it was what she wanted to do.

“But education, that’s been something that’s been hammered in,” Ivanovna said with a laugh. “You have to have something to rely on. Marketing, I felt, was something I could use. Music is my passion. Marketing, it’s insurance if my passion doesn’t work out.”

So she enrolled at the UA with aspirations that marketing would support her singing career. In fact, it’s the reason why she’s performing at Spring Fling.

In a marketing class, students came up with a Honda campaign for the annual Associated Students of the University of Arizona event. Ivanovna decided instead of finding another attraction, she could just become part of the entertainment.

This Saturday, fair-goers will hear three of Ivanovna’s songs, which she also wrote and produced, and are featured on her freshman album “Nada Keda D’ Mi.” She said she hopes that after graduation, she’ll be able to launch the album in Mexico City with her father, who is also her manager.

Higher temps, hotter tunes: Music fest Four albums for the summer will bring

By Kate Newton DAILY WILDCAT

It’s April and my iPod and I have a serious case of spring fever. The music industry’s upcoming releases seem to rival Hollywood’s blockbuster season, with Chris Brown, John Mayer and Justin Bieber all slated to release highly anticipated albums somewhere down the line.

While that’s all in good fun, these next few months present the perfect opportunity to move beyond safe pop favorites and explore new artists for your already epic summer playlist. Here are four upcoming albums from acts that subvert the mainstream with music cool enough to brace you for the heat:

Santigold, ‘Master of My Make Believe’

Buzz began to build around Santigold’s sophomore release months ago, but the 35-year-old set blogs and Twitter accounts ablaze once she released the album cover.

The image is so ornate it looks like a shadowy screenshot from Kanye West’s unforgettably grandiose “Power” music video.

Add that to rumors that she’ll be collaborating with rap prodigy Earl Sweatshirt and the recent announcement of a North American tour with Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Santigold’s set an impressive platform for female artists looking to represent pop separate from the likes of Lady Gaga and Katy Perry (whom she seems to blatantly diss in the video of single “Big Mouth”).

“Big Mouth” is vaguely creepy, but in a refreshing, dance-ready kind of way, while the pulsing beat of “Disparate Youth” generates excitement for everything else Santigold has up her sonic sleeve.

Read one interview with her and it’s clear she has one very big thing going for her: She’s all about the music. And that’s all too rare these days.

Anticipated release date: May 1

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, ‘Here’

Just when you thought you couldn’t stomach one more car commercial or 5-year-old girl grossly over-performing the group’s 2009 single “Home,” Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros are back with not one, but two, LPs this year.

Lead singer Alex Ebert expressed in a press release that the band’s 12 members produced so much new music in the four-year gap since Up From Below that releasing two separate albums will allow them to fully “express a varying and so relatively living portrait of our lives.”

To translate from hippie-speak, listeners can expect the same handclapping, foot-stomping, effortlessly upbeat songs they’ve come to expect from the group. Bottom line, this album will surely be a ready-made soundtrack for summer road trips.

Anticipated release date: May 29

The Walkmen, ‘Heaven’

This New York City-based group is solid across the board, with driving guitars and percussives that dial down to expose frontman Hamilton Leithauser’s raggedly emotional vocals and soft, rambling instrumentals.

If there was a Grammy for “Band Most Likely to Consistently Give You Goosebumps,” I’d do everything in my power to personally nominate them.

Heaven, the band’s seventh studio album, was produced by Phil Ek (who’s worked with The Shins, Modest Mouse and Fleet Foxes, to name a few), meaning it’s practically decreed by musical law to deliver to fans both new and old. And with a title like that, how could it disappoint?

genre with bizarre ‘80s pop influences, prehistoric chanting and complex synth that draws comparisons both futuristic and spiritualist. And while its 2010 release Odd Blood was a bit meandering, the single “Tightrope,” (Yeasayer’s contribution to AIDS charity compilation “Dark Was the Night” back in 2009) still awes with its atmospheric chorus and a profoundly simple message-turned-mantra: “If you want to get it big time, go ‘head and get it big time.”

When asked about the upcoming release, singer and keyboardist Chris Keating told Spin magazine that it could be likened to a “demented R&B record,” with club-friendly singles that will try to “get away from all this David Guetta bullshit.” If that alone doesn’t get you excited, then you’re better off playing it safe with Usher’s new album (out May 22, by the way).

If this sounds like nirvana, then Country Thunder should be the event on your mind. Arizona’s largest country music festival is taking over Florence this weekend.

Country Thunder is known for its amazing lineups year after year, and 2012 will be no different. The list of acts reads like a who’s who of the modern country scene: Big and Rich, Blake Shelton, The Band Perry, Jake Owen, Alan Jackson and Dierks Bentley, not to mention a slew of supporting acts. Twenty-two country artists in four days?

Slather on the sunscreen, take some shots and prepare to lose your voice.

While we’re ushering in festival season with the eponymous Coachella Valley behemoth, Country Thunder should serve as the blue collar antithesis to most of spring and summer’s musical events. Demographically, Country Thunder serves as a slice of Arizona’s rabid country fan base with fans from all walks attending.

The collegiate draw should be the festival’s party-ready atmosphere — slightly intoxicated, somewhat salacious and completely fun. This is far from a hipster’s paradise and even farther from the pretentious nature that’s packaged with it.

2012 also marks the introduction of Electronic Thunder, a country DJ event that’s more moonshine than MDMA. Electronic Thunder brings a much-needed dance floor to the festival, and is sure to add a more intimate and carefree element to a festival already known for its lackadaisical attitude.

Whether it ends up being a roll in the hay or a romp in the mud has yet to be determined, but one thing’s for sure — Country Thunder is one of the biggest summer festivals that Arizona’s treated to. From the food to the attractions, Country Thunder is set to please all of its patrons’ needs and wishes.

Bound to be so much more than a whiskey-soaked mechanical bull ride, Country Thunder is like country music’s spring break, trading tribal tattoos and party boats for 10-gallon hats and RVs.

The Arizona football team will debut its new-look offense and defense on Saturday during the annual spring game at Kino Stadium

What to watch for in spring scrimmage

Ugly spring comes to conclusion with second public scrimmage

By Mike Schmitz Daily Wildcat

By Zack Rosenblatt Daily Wildcat

After its first spring under head coach Rich Rodriguez, the Arizona football team will hold its annual spring game on Saturday at 1 p.m.

The team will play at Kino Stadium while Arizona Stadium undergoes renovation. Here are five things to watch during the scrimmage:

Will Rodriguez let Matt Scott loose?

The Wildcats recently added junior college transfer quarterback B.J. Denker to its roster for the fall, a welcome addition for a team that has just one scholarship quarterback, senior Matt Scott, on its roster. That fact is why head coach Rich Rodriguez has a no-contact rule for Scott, to reduce the risk of him getting hurt.

Denker, who runs a 4.47 40-yard dash according to Scout.com, won’t join the Wildcats until the fall, so right now the only available quarterbacks are Scott, converted receiver Richard Morrison and walk-ons Tyler D’Amore and Alex Cappellini.

Morrison might not see much time at quarterback on Saturday due to a shoulder injury.

In his career, specifically at West Virginia, Rodriguez found the most success when he was able to run the ball through his quarterback. Pat White thrived in this system, Denard Robinson thrived in this system, and while Matt Scott might not be as fast as those two, he is certainly capable of succeeding as well.

For now, Rodriguez has avoided letting Scott run loose. But, maybe he will give him a chance on Saturday.

Who will emerge on the offensive line?

Sophomore offensive tackles Fabbians Ebbele and Mickey Baucus, both 6-foot-8 behemoths, protected former quarterback Nick Foles as freshmen — Baucus on the left side and Ebbele on the right. So far this

Arizona quarterback Matt Scott delivers a pass during the UA’s spring practices. Scott hasn’t had contact this spring because he’s the only scholarship quarterback on the roster, but that may change Saturday.

When Arizona football players first set foot on the field at Jimenez Practice Facility on March 5 for the start of spring ball, their previous body of work was erased and it was back to square one.

There was a new sheriff in town, and first-year head coach Rich Rodriguez wanted each and every player, walk-on or three-year starter, to once again prove his worth.

“We found out what position we were on the first day of spring ball, it was kind of a big adjustment,” said Arizona linebacker Jake Fischer.

Rodriguez ran the players into the ground to weed out the slackers. He implemented his complex schemes to test their knowledge of the game.

And after about a month of some serious highs and lows, Rodriguez has molded this mix of players into his army of men, and that progress will be on display on Saturday at 1 p.m. at Kino Stadium for the UA’s annual spring game.

How far have the Wildcats come since that first practice on March 5?

“It’s night and day in the last couple of practices from the first practice,” Fischer said. “We didn’t know what we were doing at the beginning. Everybody is getting better everyday. There’s not one time you can throw on the film and see a person didn’t improve, even if it’s slight.”

Rodriguez was never shy about Arizona’s low starting point. He canceled post-practice interviews because he said players didn’t practice well enough to talk to the media.

He once kept his players in the locker room instead of practicing so that he could go through each and every play from their first scrimmage, ripping into individual players for their mistakes.

Rodriguez and his staff counted every player’s errors during practice and made them do up-downs in front of the media for each mistake they made.

It wasn’t always pretty, but Rodriguez said the Wildcats eventually made some strides and their struggles weren’t out of the ordinary.

“If I would have taken notes from all the other four or five places I’ve been, I probably would have laughed at how familiar it really is, some of the struggles we’ve had,” Rodriguez said on Wednesday. “I think we’ve made progress.”

Rodriguez and his squad have the chance to showcase their improvements on Saturday when the new UA contingent will debut its high-octane offense and 3-3-5 defense to the Wildcat faithful.

Arizona is far from a finished product, however. Rodriguez jokes that he still doesn’t have a depth chart.

Aside from quarterback Matt Scott, no player has really solidified a starting spot, and they most likely won’t until fall camp.

But Rodriguez said most of his schemes are fully installed and Wildcats fans will get a taste of what they’ll see next fall. Although there are still several moving parts, Rodriguez has his first chance to show the public what he’s done with this crop of players in front of what’s expected to be a solid crowd at Kino.

“Exposing the program is what coach Rod is all about right now,” said UA center Kyle Quinn. “On Saturday we expect a lot of fans to show up and we’ll put on a great show for them.”

Softball ready for clash with No. 1 Cal on road

By Emi Komiya Daily Wildcat

Head Arizona softball coach Mike Candrea could hardly contain his emotion as he talked about what this weekend against Cal — which begins today at 3 p.m. in Berkeley, Calif.

— will mean to his team.

Calling it nothing short of a challenge, Candrea has been disappointed with the roller coaster of energy that shows up at the field from game to game.

A mid-week series against an unranked Pac-12 newcomer Utah was no different.

“All I can say right now is it’s sitting right in front of them and life’s full of choices and they’ve got a choice to make.

So they better be ready to come out and play their best softball here in the next three days,” Candrea said.

Despite sweeping the Utes, the Wildcats did not take full advantage of the series in their execution. In Wednesday’s game, Arizona experienced a five-inning lull in which it was unable to set a comfortable lead. The Wildcats almost gave up the game in the sixth with back-to-back errors on the left side of the

Arizona will look to stay hot on the road against No. 1 Cal this weekend.

infield, usually the most solid defense in the diamond.

“I don’t know if we get too complacent but every inning, every bat, every pitch — I don’t feel like we’re as intense as we should be,” pitcher Kenzie Fowler said.

The errors and a walk helped the Utes load the bases with two outs in the sixth, a close call for the Wildcats, though they escaped unscathed.

“We did enough to win but that’s about all I can say,” Candrea said. “I can’t say that we played great softball and so

this weekend is going to be a challenge for us and it will be a really good eye-opener to see where we’re really at.”

A comfortable transition from a mid-week series to a weekend against the best competition in the country is critical. The matchup will be telling of where Arizona stands for the remainder of the season.

Cal has only lost once this season, on the road to Hawaii in the 10th inning. The Golden Bears have won 14 straight since.

In Pac-12 play, the only series the Wildcats have lost was the

opener to ASU. The Washington series last weekend was a step in the right direction as the team took its first Pac-12 away series against the No. 3 Huskies, another tough opponent. Midweek series at home against Stanford and Utah have been opportunities for the Wildcats to work on inconsistencies.

Despite wins, they have highlighted that the team is still struggling.

“If you look overall right now, we just have to make a choice to either start playing this game with some fight and drive and competitiveness or its going to get tough,” Candrea said.

All components need to come together this weekend as Arizona will be playing away from home and in the lion’s den against the top team in the country.

“This is an opportunity for us to really make a statement that can help us later on come close season but you have to go out there and earn it,” Candrea said.

Today’s game is followed by a game at 1 p.m. on Saturday and another at noon on Sunday.

“We’re going to see what we’re made of basically. If we choose to arrive it’s going to be a knock-out ground-out type of weekend,” Fowler said.

The Arizona baseball team welcomes No. 17 UCLA to Tucson for a series that could decide who sits on top of the standings.

Baseball battles to stay on top of Pac

By Dan Kohler Daily Wildcat It would be easy for the No. 4 Arizona baseball team to get caught up in the hype that comes with being at the top of the Pac-12 Conference standings, but with a visit from the No. 17 UCLA Bruins this weekend, Arizona is maintaining focus on the series opening contest tonight at Hi Corbett Field.

“We’re thinking one game at a time right now,” Arizona third baseman Seth Mejias-Brean said. “(We’re) just practicing getting ready for this weekend, we can’t think about what’s after, everything is important coming up.”

While the Wildcats (23-9, 9-3 Pac-12) haven’t lost a conference series all season, the Bruins (22-7, 8-4) are right on their tails, tied with the Oregon Ducks for second place in the Pac-12.

In the 2011 MLB Draft, the Bruins lost two of their weekend starters, Gerrit Cole and Trevor Bauer, who, after consistently dominating Pac-10 batters, were picked first and third overall, respectively.

Olympic prep and school lead Labonte to spring redshirt

By Emi Komiya DAILY WILDCAT

Junior thrower Julie Labonte has had her sights set on the 2012 summer Olympics since before she became a Wildcat.

Labonte told the coaches that it was in everyone’s best interest if she was granted a redshirt season in order to better prepare for the Olympics and stay on track with her education while being able to stay at the UA for one more season.

“It was definitely the best decision for me right now and the coaches support that,” Labonte said.

Head coach Fred Harvey broke the news to the rest of the team last week. He is confident the team will be able to take on the extra load that Labonte will not be able to carry this season.

“The challenge to the rest of the team is that we can’t sit and cry about this thing,” Harvey said.

“What are the rest of you going to do to step up and make sure that we get it done this season?”

As a Wildcat, Labonte has become a key component of the team. The hardest part of not competing this season, she says, is being able to travel, support and help her teammates.

GORDON BATES / DAILY WILDCAT

Julie Labonte will redshirt this spring while prepping for the 2012 Olympics.

“After my performance in the indoor NCAAs where I placed third, I was a little disappointed,” Labonte said. “But now I have to focus on this summer.”

She continues to train regularly and will participate in a few select meets to remain competitive.

The road leads to the Canadian Nationals this summer where Labonte will need to place in the top three nationally in order to represent Canada in London this summer.

Stubbe next in line to lead W-Tennis

By Iman Hamdan DAILY WILDCAT

Leadership roles are usually reserved for the veterans on any team, but sophomore Kim Stubbe demonstrated a knack for leading the women’s tennis team from her first day as a Wildcat.

“She came in as a freshman, but acted as a senior,” head coach Vicky Maes said. “Kim will gradually take over leadership of the team. She is very comfortable

expressing what needs to be said and with the seniors leaving this year, she will step more into that role.”

Stubbe knew if she stayed in Belgium for college she would give up tennis for higher education, but after speaking with a friend that attended Iowa, her eyes opened to a new possibility.

“The minute I was introduced to the American college scene I

spring, Scott has yet to take a snap with either of his big linemen protecting him.

Baucus has been held out of spring drills as he recovers from back surgery and Ebbele has been suspended since March for his role in a campusarea brawl. Baucus is expected to return in the fall, but Ebbele’s status with the UA is up in the air.

In the meantime, offensive line coach Robert Anae has been forced to mix and match.

Chris Putton, a starter at left guard last season, has been practicing at left tackle for most of the spring. Putton was a left tackle in high school so he has some experience, but he’s a bit undersized compared to the 6-foot-8, 290-pound Baucus. Eric Bender-Ramsay, also a guard, has been getting some time at left tackle as well. If Ebbele does not return to the program, between Putton, Bender-Ramsay, Trent Spurgeon or whoever else, someone needs to emerge because Arizona can’t afford to lose Scott, especially with the lack of depth at quarterback.

Will Rodriguez be any closer to figuring out a depth chart after the game?

Rodriguez has said over and over again that he won’t have a depth chart, or even a two-deep rotation, set after the spring. That doesn’t mean we can’t speculate. Matt Scott, running back Ka’Deem Carey, receivers Dan Buckner and Austin

Hill, center Kyle Quinn, linebacker Jake Fischer, safety Tra’Mayne Bondurant and fullback Taimi Tutogi are all safe bets to secure starting roles.

Everything else is pretty much up for grabs. Some players have impressed thus far in the spring and have likely earned playing time, but Rodriguez has been so non-committal about the depth chart that nothing is certain.

Running backs Daniel Jenkins and Kylan Butler have done well in both scrimmages; Garic Wharton has emerged at wide receiver and defensive tackle Willie Mobley appears to have recovered nicely from his injury, but for all we know Rodriguez doesn’t plan on starting any of them.

Will the defense show some improvement?

In two spring scrimmages, the offense has clearly held an advantage.

A large part of that has been, as Rodriguez has pointed out repeatedly, a lack of conditioning. That, coupled with the growing pains that come with learning Jeff Casteel’s 3-3-5 defensive scheme, have helped the Wildcats’ explosive offensive hold the advantage thus far.

A few key defensive players have been held out this spring, including the suspended Jourdon Grandon and arguably Arizona’s top corner in Jonathan McKnight, which is as good a reason as any for the early struggles.

Transfer linebacker Brian Wagner, who was the second-leading tackler in the nation for Akron last season, hasn’t made much of an impact just yet. But, it’s still early, and the biggest

question on Saturday will be how far the defense has come in terms of learning the new system.

Is kicker John Bonano’s job safe?

With the much-ballyhooed struggles of former kicker Alex Zendejas, followed by a failed attempt at installing Jaime Salazar at kicker, John Bonano’s performance kicking field goals last year was a silver lining on an otherwise terrible season for Arizona special teams.

On the season, Bonano went 8-for-12 on field goals, with a long of 47 yards, 24-for-24 on extra points and had 22 touchbacks on kickoffs.

Yet, as the mantra has been this spring, no job is safe under Rodriguez. That fact is amplified with the under-the-radar addition of transfer kicker Jake Smith.

Smith joined the UA in January as a walk-on after spending last year with Youngstown State and 2010 with Syracuse. Early in spring ball, Rodriguez said Smith would have a chance to kick the ball this season.

“He’s been, I don’t want to say a pleasant surprise because we thought he had some ability from watching some highlights from him, but I think he’s having an outstanding spring,” Rodriguez said of Smith. “I think John Bonano’s got a great leg. He’s a good, solid kicker but we need another one and Jake has done some pretty good things so far in five practices.”

Kickers are typically judged on a “what have you done for me lately” basis, so if Smith thrives on Saturday, he might be able to wrangle away the starting spot — at least for the time being.

BASEBALL FROM PAGE 7

TIM W. GLASS / DAILY WILDCAT

Arizona sophomore Andre Vidaller missed time with back and hamstring issues this season, but tennis head coach Tad Berkowitz called Vidaller a “great team player.” The men’s team travels to Oregon and Washington for a pair of Pac-12 Conference matches this weekend.

was sold,” Stubbe said. “I could play tennis and study and that is exactly what I wanted to do.”

Although it was intimidating to leave everything familiar behind, especially speaking very little English, Stubbe found comfort that Maes spoke Dutch as well. Stubbe is double majoring in psychology and French, but finds her life revolves around her team.

“The eight girls on the team became my family,” Stubbe said. “I had to rely on them. I am more comfortable now in every aspect of my life, which also has boosted my confidence.”

With a singles record of 10-6, it is hard to believe that Stubbe struggled with injuries this season. A sprained ankle left her out for two weeks of the season causing her to miss the first week of Pac-12 play. A series of cramps also caused her to retire from a few of her matches.

“I would just come to practice to be around the team,” Stubbe said.

“Even though I physically couldn’t contribute, at least I could be there to

motivate and support them.”

Stubbe’s fondest memory of the season comes from the USC match when she teamed up with fellow sophomore Susan McRann to win against a top-ranked duo.

“My parents came to the match and I was really nervous,” Stubbe said. “But as the match went on, I just knew we could do this. Getting that win when my parents were there was very special.”

Stubbe and McRann are 10-3 in doubles for the season.

“We complement each other,” McRann said. “She gets my confidence up and in turn that fires me up.”

McRann relies on Stubbe’s energy even in singles play because the two usually play next to each other. This weekend, the team plays at home on Friday against Colorado and Saturday against Utah.

“We all have to step up,” Stubbe said. “Even though Colorado is not ranked doesn’t mean the match will be easy. Winning the doubles point will always give us a huge step forward and can keep us from coming up flat.”

Vidaller, men’s tennis take to Pacific Northwest

From the beginning of the season, sophomore Andre Vidaller suffered from a sore back. By the fifth week of the men’s tennis season, Vidaller went down in excruciating pain during a singles match against Denver’s Enej Bonin.

His hamstring injury kept him out for two weeks, but Vidaller attended every practice and match to support his team. Vidaller’s love for motivating his teammates led him to the active role of being team captain this semester.

“My job is to set a good example on and off the court,” Vidaller said. “To keep the guys motivated, we work out every single day no matter what the weather conditions are. We have goals and we work on those every week. I’m the vocal leader of the team, and that is another way that I like to motivate the team to get them pumped.”

The men’s tennis team travels to Oregon on Friday and Washington on Sunday to continue Pac-12 play.

“Andre will do everything possible to win for our team,” head coach Tad Berkowitz said. “He is a great team player as well as the leader of our team. He is a great example for the team in all aspects of being a studentathlete. He works hard on the courts, classroom, and also spends a great deal of time with community service.”

Vidaller’s record for the season is 4-11, but the majority of his losses were only by two points or taken into three sets.

The men’s tennis team will take on the Oregon Ducks today in Eugene, Ore. The team will then travel to Seattle, Wash., to play the Washington Huskies on Sunday.

“Hopefully we can all play good at the same time because we usually struggle with that,” Vidaller said. “We want two wins this weekend and the team is committed to getting it done.”

Despite the loss of the two solid arms, Arizona head coach Andy Lopez knows that the Bruins can still deal on the mound, and he sees that in every conference foe that the Wildcats have faced.

“That’s the excitement and challenge of Pac-12 baseball,” Lopez said. “Every game’s a good game, every team’s a good team.

“We’re fortunate that we have a good team ourselves, so it’ll come down to who will play good baseball on a (nightby-night basis).”

According to Lopez, all the team needs is to come out on top after nine innings. It doesn’t have to look pretty on the front end.

“When you get into conference play, there are no style points, thank God,” he said. “It’s not ice skating or anything like that, it’s really just get one more than they have at the end of nine innings, and I mean that sincerely.”

It’s a good thing for the Wildcats that style doesn’t count.

Some of their wins have been ugly, but they were wins nonetheless. For Lopez, the only way the Wildcats can be successful is to come out hungrier than their opponents. “(UCLA’s) a good team, they fit right in with the Pac-12, being nationally ranked,” he said. “But we need to play good baseball.”

If the Arizona pitching rotation can keep up its trend, then the UCLA batters should be subdued enough.

With the ability that the Wildcats have to create offense, as they lead the nation with a .331 team average, they need to capitalize early and force the Bruins to go to their bullpen.

In its last conference home series against Stanford, Arizona set an attendance record with more than 10,000 fans walking through the gates of Hi Corbett.

It was the first time the Wildcats had reached that number since 1992.

They’re hoping for the same kind of support this weekend.

“It’s always great to see fans out there supporting you,” Arizona shortstop Alex Mejia said. “They put on a great show (against Stanford) so hopefully they’ll bring that again this weekend.”
