Students for Sustainability hosts annual Earth Day on UA Mall, encourages community to practice environment-friendly living WHITNEY BURGOYNE Arizona Daily Wildcat
Students for Sustainability hosted the annual Earth Day event on the UA Mall Monday afternoon, educating the community about sustainable living. The event was celebrated with games, prizes, question and answer sessions and a variety of tables promoting sustainability related topics by vendors throughout the Tucson community. The event began at 3 p.m. and ended at 7:30 p.m. with a star party held by the UA Astronomy Club. “People think that sustainability can only mean just food or just electricity or just water,” said Karen Komine, a pre-business

The UA was named among the top “green” colleges in the country for demonstrating a strong commitment to the environment and sustainability. “The Princeton Review’s Guide to 322 Green Colleges: 2013 Edition” released its rankings last week. This is the UA’s first time being ranked. The guide reviews colleges’ attention to sustainability in academic offerings, campus infrastructure, activities and career preparation and uses “green rating scores” to rank the campuses. “I foresee [the ranking] as being valuable in the future for undergraduate and graduate admissions,” said Chrissy Lieberman, associate dean of students and the UA Green Fund adviser. “[This has] the potential to help us be part of the shift of how we engage in our environment and admit students who are willing to be innovative with using resources. It makes me excited to be in Tucson, because Tucson is a welcoming community and this makes it even more so.” The resource book is published in partnership with the U.S. Green Building Council’s Center for Green Schools and is now in its fourth edition. The guide specifically recognizes the UA for its commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and limiting greenhouse gas emissions. “I think [the ranking] does a number of things,” said Jill Ramirez, coordinator of sustainability education for Residence Life. “One, it affirms the students that are already here working in these areas; it is a good recognition for them to know that their efforts are noticed. I think that it is also reaffirming for the staff and faculty working on sustainability issues. I love working with my students and knowing that there is this resource out there to point [students] in our direction for sustainability.” The UA was also praised for its commitment to recycling

Ka’Deem Carey to appear in Tucson City Court today ZACK ROSENBLATT Arizona Daily Wildcat
The Arizona Wildcats’ All-American running back Ka’Deem Carey will appear in Tucson City Court at 10 a.m. today for a pretrial hearing on charges of disorderly conduct and assault. Carey’s charges stem from an incident on Dec. 23, 2012, with his pregnant ex-girlfriend, Marissa Rambow. In addition, Carey was kicked out of McKale Center on Jan. 23 during an Arizona basketball game against UCLA, and a few days earlier he had been ticketed for driving with expired registration and no proof of insurance. Those two incidents are separate from the charges at today’s hearing. Carey participated during the Wildcats’ spring drills, though he was never made available to the
media. “Ka’Deem’s worked hard,” Arizona head coach Rich Rodriguez said prior to the Wildcats’ spring game on April 13. “Ka’Deem’s had a lot to prove both on and off the field, and so far the Ka’Deem Carey entire spring he’s shown that. “As far as things we’ve asked him to do on and off the field, he’s worked really hard to prove himself all over again.” Carey was a consensus All-American in 2012 after he ran for 1,929 yards and 23 touchdowns. — For updates on Carey’s trial, follow us on Twitter via @WildcatSports and follow the reporter via @ZackBlatt.

Sorority sets $15,000 goal for Haiti classroom ALISON DORF Arizona Daily Wildcat

building a classroom in that school, according to Smith. “We love it. It’s so exciting,” Smith said. “We love when universities [and] college students get behind these kinds of causes. They have such influence and ability to raise a lot of awareness and money too. That makes a huge difference.” The fact that Kappa Kappa Gamma members have agreed to raise money for people they don’t know, for a country they’ve probably never been to, really shows compassion and love for other people, according to Smith. “We’re floored by it,” Smith said. “[We’re] totally excited with everything that they’re doing.” Previously the event only took place on Saturday but the sorority has expanded it to four different events in four days. In an effort

The UA was accepted as one of the newest members of the Green Sports Alliance, a national nonprofit organization that aims to help sports teams, venues and leagues enhance environmental performance, said Joe Abraham, director of the UA Office of Sustainability. “We are excited for the future, to help other universities follow our lead and work with them,” Abraham said. The UA is one of nine colleges to join the 160-plus-member alliance just in time for the Earth Day celebrations Monday. In addition to a wide range of
to get the community involved, the sorority has opened the event up to the public, as well as created a competition among fraternity members participating in the tournament, according to Rabold. One hundred and sixty-four teams have signed up to play, a significant increase from the 90 to 100 teams who signed up in the past. Rabold attributes this to the Kappa Kappa Gamma members’ visits to each fraternity at the beginning of April with registration packets and information. Registration for the tournament cost $20 per person, and includes a jersey, food and raffle tickets to win prizes, including gift cards, an autographed basketball and signed Phoenix Suns jerseys. “I think that this event is going to be more successful than other events just because I think we were more prepared this year
campus programs and services geared toward sustainability, a number of courses and student organizations also focus on environmental issues, like Associated Students of the University of Arizona Students for Sustainability, Residence Life Eco-Reps, Solar Cats and the Environmental Law Society, among others. Students for Sustainability help the campus with waste diversion by recycling before and after sporting events, Abraham said. The UA’s commitment to sustainability both in and outside of athletics makes it a model for other institutions, according to Abraham. “In many ways we are taking an opportunity to recognize what we are already doing,” Abraham said, “and it helps advance the agenda for what we want to do.”
and we actually have a lot more sponsors,” Rabold said. “We’ve actually had the most teams sign up this year than ever before.” The event will begin Wednesday evening and continue until late Saturday afternoon. “I’m looking forward to just kind of having everyone come out and support not only our sorority but to support Generosity Water,” Rabold said. “It’s kind of great seeing everyone across the campus get involved and just kind of come together to have a good time, as well as support a good cause.” Hoops for Hope is not just a philanthropy event for Kappa Kappa Gamma, but something bigger, according to Beard. “It’s just amazing,” Smith said. “She’s [Beard] … not even that aware … of how she sparked something and got everyone else involved … so I think it’s pretty remarkable on her end.”

Among them are the UA’s Zimride ride-share and car-pool matching program, Cat Wheels bike sharing program and a discounted Sun Tran bus pass option for students and employees. “I hope that the students who are already here feel good about the work they have done and the contributions they have made,” Ramirez said. “I hope future students use [the guide] to help identify the UA as a source of sustainability if they are interested in those issues.

A UA sorority chapter is working to raise $15,000 to build a classroom in Haiti. This week, the Kappa Kappa Gamma – Gamma Zeta Chapter is holding its Hoops for Hope event, a three-on-three singleelimination basketball tournament held annually at Mansfeld Middle School, according to philanthropy chair Brooke Beard, a journalism and communication sophomore. Each year, the event raises money for an organization of the sorority’s choice. This year, the money will be donated to Generosity Water, a nonprofit dedicated to building wells and ending the clean water crisis in developing countries. If the sorority can meet its $15,000 goal, Generosity Water will dedicate a classroom to the Kappa Kappa Gamma — Gamma Zeta chapter in a school that will be built in La Source, Haiti, according to Beard. As of Monday, the sorority had already raised $13,000 from registration fees for the event and donations, according to Anna Rabold, vice president of organization and an economics sophomore. “We’re really, really close,” Beard said. “We’re just trying to push for that little extra bit of money so we can just make the school just run really well and just help out La Source, Haiti, and just really make a change. I have a lot of faith that it’s going to happen.” Beard said she first got the idea to support Generosity Water after she attended a screening earlier in the semester of a documentary called “La Source,” which details the story of a janitor who returns home to Haiti after the earthquake in 2010 to bring his village clean water. Beard eventually contacted Rebecca Smith, the campaign director for Generosity Water, who suggested the $15,000 goal. “It’s just become my entire life, like this entire semester. I’ve just completely dedicated everything to it,” Beard said. “I have a huge heart for not only just Haiti, but every single individual that’s there and is dealing with this struggle.” Generosity Water decided to build a school in La Source after discovering that high floods during the rainy season prevented students from attending school, Smith said. “We realized a lot of people were dropping out and weren’t getting their education,” Smith said. “And we realized this is really important for the development of this village, and getting them out of poverty is giving these kids an education.” The organization then decided to raise $200,000 to build a school. The $15,000 from Kappa Kappa Gamma will go toward

Boston suspect charged with using WMD mcclatchy tribune
BOSTON — The Justice Department on Monday publicly charged Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev with using a weapon of mass destruction. In unsealed court filings that shed new light on what investigators think happened before, during and after the lethal explosions on April 15, prosecutors charged Tsarnaev with one count of using and conspiring to use a WMD resulting in death. The 19-year-old ethnic Chechen, a naturalized United States citizen, also was charged with one count of malicious destruction of property by means of an explosive device resulting in death. If convicted on either federal charge, Tsarnaev faces the death penalty or life in prison. He also faces the possibility of state criminal charges as well, in connection with the bombings, which killed three people and wounded more than 200. Massachusetts has no death penalty. “Although our investigation is ongoing, today’s charges bring a successful end to a tragic week for the city of Boston, and our country,” Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said in a prepared statement. In a ceremony Monday, the FBI turned Boylston Street, which had been considered a crime scene, back to the city. A bagpiper played as the flag that flew over the finish line during the race was presented to Mayor Thomas M. Menino. The street won’t be open to the public
until buildings along it have been inspected for structural damage, city officials said. The charges against Tsarnaev, filed under seal Sunday, were presented to him Monday in his room at Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where he has been listed in serious condition since his capture Friday. FBI officials said Monday that Tsarnaev was wounded in the head, neck, leg and hand after two shootouts with law enforcement officers. “The government will always seek to elicit all the actionable intelligence and information we can from terrorist suspects taken into our custody,” said Carmen Ortiz, U.S. attorney for the District of Massachusetts. At the same time, rejecting calls made by congressional Republicans, White House spokesman Jay Carney said the administration would not designate Tsarnaev as an enemy combatant. The designation would have permitted additional interrogation of Tsarnaev, but Carney said it was unnecessary. “It is important to remember that since 9/11 we have used the federal court system to convict and incarcerate hundreds of terrorists,” Carney said. Video reviewed by investigators appeared to show the Tsarnaev brothers carrying large knapsacks as they walked along Boylston Street about 11 minutes before the first explosion. Further video and still photographs reportedly show one of the brothers slipping off his knapsack in front of the Forum restaurant and

walking away. About 30 seconds before the first explosion, Genck recounted, video shows Dzhokhar Tsarnaev appearing to talk on his cellphone. “A few seconds after he finishes the call, the large crowd of people around him can be seen reacting to the first explosion,” Genck recounted, while Tsarnaev “virtually alone among the individuals in front of the restaurant appears calm.” The video then shows Tsarnaev leaving his knapsack on the ground and walking away,
Genck said. Ten seconds later, the second bomb exploded. Investigators subsequently determined that both bombs were constructed from pressure cookers, BBs and nails, a low-grade explosive and a fuse. A search of Tsarnaev’s dorm room at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth uncovered clothes that resembled those seen in the videos, as well a “a large pyrotechnic” and BBs, according to the affidavit. “The mayhem they created is unheard of,” Menino said at a news conference Monday.
Community Chatter
Earth Day from page 1
Kayla Yates, a nutritional sciences senior and a member of the Nutritional Sciences Club, had a poster board displaying information about healthy eating habits, emphasizing the importance of eating fresh vegetables and portion control. “I emphasize eating vegetables in general,” Yates said. “If you’re eating canned ones or cooking them, at least you are eating them. That’s like the biggest boundary to get over with most people.” Komine said a lot of preparation went into the event and that the point was to send a clear message to the community. “It’s our future. Resources can be depleted, not everything can be reproduced,” Komine said. “You can only have so much of a certain thing so you have to make it last. The possibilities you can achieve through sustainability are endless.”

Teachercourse reviews matter NATHANIEL DRAKE Arizona Daily Wildcat
I
filled out my first TeacherCourse Evaluation form of the semester last week. As usual, the professor had a volunteer collect the forms and as she left the room, she encouraged us to answer the questionnaire honestly. I took my time filling out the form, as did many of my classmates, but more than half of them finished so quickly I have a hard time believing they took it seriously. There are more than 40 years worth of research establishing the validity of student feedback surveys in relation to teaching effectiveness, according to Jennifer Franklin, director of the Office of Institutional Research and Planning Support Evaluation Services. The TeacherCourse Evaluations are used by more than 90 percent of the departments on campus as part of their annual review process of faculty, Franklin said. These annual reviews help to determine the contracts professors are offered, including whether or not they will be given tenure. Professors also have the option to add questions to their surveys. Answers are kept confidential between the professor and OIRPS and are used by professors to improve their own performance. Since jobs and contracts are on the line, OIRPS goes to great lengths to ensure the data is both reliable and valid. All data is reported with a margin of error, a precaution most universities don’t use, according to Franklin. Also, instead of showing averages, OIRPS provides the departments with the frequencies of each student answer. OIRPS is also careful to ensure the departments are comparing equivalent data when reviewing. This is important because class size, course division and subject matter have a statistically significant effect on the ratings. For example, upper-division classes tend to receive better ratings than lower-division classes. There is also research that suggests a likeable professor who has ineffective teaching methods will not receive better ratings, Franklin said. Easy professors are not necessarily likely to receive higher ratings either because the department can monitor the class syllabus and grading. We also all know of professors who have left us scratching our heads wondering how they ever made it so far in school, and it’s our responsibility to let the university know about their performance. But there are also professors who inspire us to continue through our education. These professors should be rewarded. OIRPS does its job to make the data as valid as possible and it’s up to us to help out by answering the Teacher-Course Evaluations thoughtfully and honestly. An important part of being invested in our education is reviewing the services we’re receiving from the university and Teacher-Course Evaluations are our best chance to do just that. — Nathaniel Drake is a political science and communications sophomore.

complaint filed by attorney Gloria Allred with the U.S. Department of Education, alleging the school failed to protect women. The complaint alleges that 37 students were “raped, sexually assaulted, battered, harassed or retaliated against for speaking out against sexual violence” since 2009, according to the Los Angeles Times. It also accuses the college of discouraging victims from reporting sex crimes and taking criminal or administrative action against their attackers. One college and 37 victims in four years — and that only includes those who came forward. Lists of “the top 10 sluttiest schools in America” do nothing to lower the statistics. These lists only further the idea that women “ask for it” when they dress a particular way or when they party in particular places. Lists like these do nothing to make college women feel safer. — Kristina Bui is the editor-inchief of the Arizona Daily Wildcat.

Pulse Of the Pac What are the opinions desks of other college newspapers inside the Pac-12 talking about this week? “What time is Earth Day?” By Jonathan Fortner, April 21
Apathy toward both holidays — National Grilled Cheese Day and Earth Day — highlights a significant flaw in how we’ve been going about things for far too long. The Earth quite literally deals with both life and death and should garner more respect than the above average and simple courtesy we show it during Earth Day celebrations once a year. And no, your “garden” of herbs isn’t enough either. No one is immune to this. My venus fly trap, Wyctor, contributes nothing to society. It’s all about me; it’s all in vain. He and I both know it. As disgusting as it is to quote Shakespeare (whether accurately or not), is it “much ado about nothing” to discuss what Earth Day has inevitably become? Just another tedious task — on a Monday, no less? The State Press Arizona State University

Student loan repayment plans should be based on income, individual ability Eitan Arom, April 19
In the budget proposal he released earlier this month, President Barack Obama suggested the interest rates on student loans be tied to the rate at which the government borrows from private lenders. Such a measure would afford protection to the government agencies that manage student loans. But lawmakers have yet to adopt legislation that protects student borrowers, who collectively, as of last year, held about one trillion dollars in loan debt. In June 2012, Congress tabled the debate on student loans with a stopgap measure that froze interest rates on federal Stafford loans until July 1, 2013. With that date drawing ever nearer, prospective students and parents cannot afford to give Congress another extension. The Daily Bruin University of California, Los Angeles
Refusing to discuss divestment is divisive by Jason Kaufman, April 17
I will raise the same question posed in a 2010 article by City University of New York Associate Professor Peter Beinart. Beinart presents a group of Israeli students who protest the eviction of a Palestinian family and asks, “What if American Jewish organizations brought these young people to speak at Hillel? What if this was the face of Zionism shown to America’s Jewish young?” Beinart supposes “an uncomfortable Zionism, a Zionism angry at what Israel risks becoming, and in love with what it still could be.” I hope that severing ties with Stanford’s Jewish community is not the only means to rid my embarrassment of, and discomfort with, its refusal to discuss what is, quite undeniably, a human rights abomination. If we as a community choose to ignore my argument entirely and continue to silence certain discussions, I urge us to find other mediums through which to talk constructively about Israel and Palestine.

POLICE BEAT MAXWELL J. MANGOLD Arizona Daily Wildcat
Buckle up or pay up
A non-UA affiliated man was arrested on charges of driving on a suspended license at North Wilson Avenue and Fourth Street at 9 a.m. on April 17. A University of Arizona Police Department officer noticed a black sedan that was traveling faster than surrounding traffic. An officer then used a radar gun to determine the car’s speed, which was 10 mph over the limit. As the sedan passed the patrol vehicle, the officer noticed the driver wasn’t wearing a seat belt. The officer then followed the car down Sixth Street, where the car made a turn into the Sam Hughes neighborhood. The officer then sped up because he believed the driver was trying to lose him. The sedan made several more turns before the driver stopped at North Wilson Avenue and Fourth Street. The driver identified himself and his two sons in the backseat. A records check showed the man’s license was suspended, but the man replied he was unaware of it because he’s never been issued a license. The man was then cited and released at the scene and his car was impounded.

A $1,010.15 unauthorized transaction issued to the Space Sciences building’s purchasing card was reported to UAPD at 8:01 a.m. on April 15. A UA employee reported the incident, which occurred on March 25. The purchase was made at thewatchhut.co.uk. The vendor of the purchased item noticed the fraudulent charge and refunded an incorrect amount, less than that which was spent. The reporting employee told police she’d last used the card several months ago and that nobody beside herself had possession of the card recently.

A Pueblo de la Cienega Residence Hall community director reported damage to the dorm’s hallways and lounge area at 10 a.m. on April 15. She said the damage occurred two days prior and that the damage had been “ongoing and progressively getting worse.” The director then escorted police to the second floor where the hallway walls and a lounge chair were scraped with a sharp object, not consistent with regular wear and tear. Pictures of the damage were submitted into UAPD evidence. There are currently no suspects.

F.P.S. — The Fabulous Perspective of Sarah Hey Wildcats! Summer is on the horizon! I can taste it, feel it, and can see the changes on campus happening now. It’s that time of year where flip-flops and shorts are worn everyday. The time of year where freshman say they’re experiencing “senioritis.” I’m here to burst that bubble. There are three things that comprise TRUE senioritis: • Using your four years of experience to invent a formula telling you exactly how much you can procrastinate on a class project that’s worth half your grade (Mine never fails… but that’s a secret I will take to the grave) • Eating every meal in the Union like it was your last (after four years, food in the Union is NEVER enough) • Never knowing what day of the week it is because you are in denial about how close graduation actually is And that’s just scratching the surface of senioritis. You know you love me – S

One-Day Photography Exhibit - “Between Heaven and Earth” by Ed Flores Ed Flores’ body of work is a hybrid of visual and performing arts, as he captures the line, grace, beauty and passion of the dancer with his camera. This premiere exhibition of his selected artwork portrays members of the University of Arizona Dance Ensemble as they exist “Between Heaven and Earth.” The dancers are completely human, yet they appear somewhat divine. Flores pays homage to dancers and their art form, which requires intense training as well as rigorous discipline, transforming them into fine athletes; they do not receive the same recognition or stardom as most sports players do, yet their passion drives them to continuously strive for perfection. While Flores’ work will be presented in the lobby, UA Dance’s dress rehearsal of Spring Collection will take place on the stage of the Stevie Eller Dance Theatre, giving visitors the opportunity to watch dancers perform and see fine art photography displayed in the lobby. Flores’ unique photography results from his ability to immerse himself in the rhythm of the dance and instinctively time the perfect moment to capture the dancer in motion. Inspired by the heightened chiaroscuro of his favorite old master Caravaggio, he creates a strong expressive contrast of light and shadow to emphasize the curves of the body and its movement. Flores is a Tucsonan and worked as a quality assurance engineer. In 1995, he left the corporate world and self-trained as a photographer. One of his first dance photographs in 1997 was chosen for the cover of Dance Teacher Now, a nationally published magazine. In December 2010, his work was featured on the cover of the Desert Leaf magazine as well as in an article by Jesse Greenberg titled “UA Athletes Dancing.” Further, in 2011 his photography served as the cover of

Poetry Center reading explores loss, love MEGAN COGHLAN Arizona Daily Wildcat
Writers Brent Hendricks and Nicole Walker read Monday at the UA Poetry Center for the last reading of the semester in the UA Prose Series. Hendricks comes with an impressive resume. He is a graduate from the University of Virginia, Harvard Law School, and holds a Master’s in Fine Arts from the UA. His writing embodies themes such as his childhood, his past and death. His memoir, “A Long Day at the End of the World,” explores the Tri-State Crematory incident. Among the 339 desecrated bodies discovered at the TriState Crematory, Hendricks’ father was found. In writing about
the discovery of his father’s body, and the illness leading up to his father’s death, Hendricks creates a personal relationship with his audience, bringing it closer to him. Walker, now a professor at Northern Arizona University, writes with authority on identity from a masculine and feminine perspective. During her reading, she captivated listeners with controversial topics and themes explored in her collection of nonfiction essays, “Quench Your Thirst With Salt.” “Quench Your Thirst With Salt” is about stubbornness — “A stubborn landscape where stubborn water wants to stay in the stubborn mountains. A stubborn group of settlers who forces the water out of the mountain and into the Salt Lake Valley. A stubborn girl who acts older than she is. A stubborn religion that weighs sex and drinking the heaviest of sins. A stubborn father
who, in order to defy the church, drinks himself to death. A stubborn woman who decides to have a baby girl, even though girls sometimes have a hard time in patriarchal Utah.” Walker’s topics leave readers almost feeling like they are reading something that they shouldn’t, especially in scenes like a graphic rape described in the essay “Where the Wild Things Are.” However, everything Walker writes has a purpose and leads to a greater message. Readers will want to know how it all comes together in the end. Hendricks and Walker’s books are available for reading and purchase at the Poetry Center. Poetry readings will pick back up again in the fall after taking a break for the summer. The event is free of cost, but the learning experience is priceless.

THE GOLDEN AGE Arizona quarterbacks in the NFL Arizona quarterbacks have been few and far between in the NFL, but Matt Scott and Nick Foles are the Wildcats’ most recent success stories. Before them, Willie Tuitama had a shot at the NFL before concussions and DUI arrests derailed his career. Here’s a look at the trio’s pre-draft profiles. *All according to NFLdraftscout.com
Willie Tuitama
Year: 2009 Arizona career stats (40 games, 38 starts): 9,211 passing yards, 67 touchdowns, 31 interceptions, 61.6 completion percentage Pre-draft ranking: 26th out of 114 quarterbacks Result: Undrafted, out of NFL
Nick Foles
Year: 2012 Arizona career stats (36 games, 33 starts): 10,011 yards, 67 touchdowns, 33 interceptions, 66.9 completion percentage Pre-draft ranking: 11th out of 80 quarterbacks Result: Picked 3rd round, 88th overall by Philadelphia ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT FILE PHOTO

t was the second quarter, the Philadelphia Eagles were playing the Dallas Cowboys at Lincoln Financial Field. There were almost 70,000 raucous fans in the City of Brotherly Love. Eagles quarterback Michael Vick was injured in the second quarter. So, with 7:41 remaining, rookie Nick Foles entered the game under center. After two handoffs to his running back,
Foles attempted the first pass of his NFL career — an incomplete pass attempt to receiver Jason Avant, who was injured on the play. Not exactly the best start to an NFL career, but for the former Arizona quarterback, the moment was significant. Before Foles attempted that pass — and 264 more — the Arizona Wildcats hadn’t had a quarterback throw a pass in the NFL in nearly 40 years. That pass came from Bill Demory, a New York Jets undrafted rookie who subbed in for an injured Joe Namath. It was the lone pass attempt of his career. If you haven’t caught on, NFL quarterbacks coming from the UA have been few and far between. After this weekend, though, the Wildcats

t’s not too often a team scores seven runs in an inning and loses. But Arizona found a way to do it Sunday afternoon as it lost to Stanford in Palo Alto, Calif., 12-8. The loss ended the Wildcats’ three-series winning streak, but maybe more importantly, appeared to kill the momentum Arizona had built after starting the Pac-12 schedule 0-6. Prior to this weekend, the Wildcats had beaten up on conference bottom feeders Utah and California, sweeping the two schools at the friendly confines of Hi Corbett Field. Then they traveled to Pullman, Wash., and somberly took two out of three from a decent Cougars team, but a series win on the road is still a series win. A late comeback in an absolutely ugly contest against rival Arizona State last week overshadowed the poor pitching and defensive performance the Wildcats put on. Nevertheless, winning nine out of their last 10 had the Wildcats quickly rising back to the top. That is, until this weekend when their flaws were exposed and consequently lost them two — almost all three — games. However, the two losses to No. 21 Stanford only dropped the Wildcats from fifth to sixth place in conference standings. And thanks to a rough weekend by No. 13 Oregon and No. 7 Oregon State, Arizona stays only four games out of first place. But struggling to win even while scoring seven runs in an inning might be creating some doubt in the UA locker room if it can win with the pitching staff it has. The series win for Stanford,
should have two. The Eagles selected Foles in the third round last year, and his successor, Matt Scott, is expected to be selected in this year’s draft, which begins Thursday night. Frank Scelfo, the former Arizona quarterbacks coach, knew he had two prolevel quarterbacks in his locker room when both Foles and Scott arrived at the UA. “My first spring in Arizona, I sat in a staff meeting and I told [former head coach] Mike Stoops we had two quarterbacks on our roster that could win games in the Pac12, and two quarterbacks on our roster that were going to play in the NFL,” Scelfo told the Daily Wildcat in February. Heck, if not for concussion problems and multiple DUI arrests, former Wildcat Willie Tuitama had a good shot at being drafted

however, did the complete opposite. The Cardinal was starting to pick up some momentum heading into this series, but now with a series victory over the defending national champions and the increasing health of the heart of their order, Stanford can be seen as a legitimate threat. The only flaw that could hold it back is the inconsistency of pitching outside of ace starter Mark Appel and new closer Sam Lindquist. Along with Stanford, No. 9 UCLA had a great weekend with a series win at Oregon. While Arizona is struggling to win against more talented teams, despite having a deadly offense, UCLA is winning 1-0 games because of the strength of its pitching staff. UCLA claims the worst offense in the Pac-12 with a .248-team batting average, but is on the rise because of its second-best pitching staff (2.47 team ERA). This weekend the Bruins beat the Ducks twice 1-0. UCLA currently sits just
2.5 games behind first place Oregon, tied with Stanford. The Ducks and Cardinal face one another this weekend in Eugene, Ore. If UCLA can handle business on the road this weekend at Washington State, either it will separate itself and join Oregon and Oregon State at the top of the conference or the Bruins and Cardinal will overtake the Northwest schools for prominence. The biggest upset of this past weekend went to Washington, as it took two out of three from Oregon State at home by scoring 15 runs in the first two games of the series against the third-ranked pitching staff in the country. Oregon State’s troubles continued following the series lost to Washington as Seattle University took the Beavers to extras, only to lose in 14 innings. — Luke Della is a journalism junior.

Year: 2013 Arizona career stats (34 games, 16 starts): 4,921 yards, 33 touchdowns, 19 interceptions, 61.4 completion percentage, 1,138 rushing yards, 8 touchdowns Pre-draft ranking: 8th out 111 quarterbacks Draft projection: 3rd-4th round

Dixon, Field lead way in midseason honors games for Arizona. He posted the team’s third highest average at .355 and fourth highest slugging percentage at .428. Newman is just one of two freshman to be named to the Brooks Wallace watch list and has increasingly gained national recognition as the season has progressed. Lopez originally started Newman for his defensive abilities but midway through conference play his batting has been the driving factor in the attention. His .97 fielding percentage, however, also ranks near the top in the conference for starters.

Following Arizona’s series at Stanford this past weekend, the Wildcats are officially halfway through the 2013 Pac-12 season. Like any defending national champion, Arizona has had to play with some unfavorable expectations especially since it lost six regulars from last year’s team. The pressure to succeed will only increase as the regular season comes to a close. But many current players have stepped up to replace last year’s production and will help the Wildcats attempt to make another late season run as they did last year.
Midseason defensive MVP: Johnny Field
Midseason MVP: Brandon Dixon
Arizona’s junior third baseman Brandon Dixon is leading his team and the Pac-12 conference in most offensive categories. Dixon, who has been hitting around .400 all season, currently boasts a .377 average which is the highest in the conference for a batter who has played in over 30 games. A quiet leader, Dixon has led by example and last Saturday helped the Wildcats come back to beat Stanford with a ninth inning solo homerun which would eventually win the game. Dixon was asked to replace former Wildcat third baseman and current Cincinnati Reds’ prospect Seth MejiasBrean, who in 2012 hit for a .355 batting average and drove in 61 runs. Dixon has matched and surpassed many of Mejias-Brean’s stats from last season, especially on the base paths. With 26 stolen bases, the junior is seventh in the nation but leads the conference. His aggressive base stealing helped defeat rival ASU last Tuesday.

ARIZONA THIRD BASEMAN Brandon Dixon scores a run in last week’s 10-9 win over ASU. Dixon has the highest batting average in the Pac-12.
Midseason pitcher of the year: Augey Bill
Arizona’s pitching staff has yet to match the success of the offense as it has struggled to be consistent. But Augey Bill (4-0) has been the set up man. The redshirt junior who only pitched in 6.2 innings last season has the team’s lowest ERA at 0.81. In 22.1 innings, the 6-foot-9 lefty has only allowed two earned runs on 15 hits. Head coach Andy Lopez has used Bill in damage control innings when he needs an out or two and when they need someone to throw one inning before handing the ball
to closer Mathew Troupe. Bill has been terrific against left-handed batters this season and poses a match up issue that Lopez likes taking advantage of.

It is unknown what position current Arizona center fielder Johnny Field will play at the next level. After switching from left field to center field this season, the 2012 Pac-12 batting champion has been nothing but smooth.

With only two errors on the season, Field’s .979 fielding percentage ranks first on his team.

Denker, too. — Zack Rosenblatt is a journalism senior, he can be reached at sports@wildcat.arizona.edu or on Twitter via @ZackBlatt.

Q
How can I help my friend stop smoking when she drinks? She says she wants to stop but has an urge to smoke when drinking because she says it gets her more drunk.
A . to start is to cut off her supply. Suggest she not buy them Thanks for your willingness to help a friend. One place
or bum them from friends at parties. Out of sight, out of mind can work if there’s no addiction. If she smokes out of boredom at a party, then engage her in other activities such as dancing, games, conversation. Distraction is a key component to success here. The time to have the conversation with her is when she’s sober. This may sound counterintuitive, but ask her why she doesn’t smoke when she’s not drinking. You can support her reasons for not smoking instead of feeling like you’re nagging her to quit. Ask her to set up a “contract” that she’ll agree to you intervening at a party if she finds her resolve weakening; then steer her away from the smokers’ group at parties as that could lead to goal relapse. Let her know some facts:

College smokers are more likely to be non-daily smokers, meaning that they smoke more in social situations when compared to their non-college peers (Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 2010). Studies with rats show that combining alcohol with nicotine creates an inflated release of dopamine in the reward center of the brain, more than either substance used alone. This supports the suggestion that it feels rewarding to smoke while drinking (Alcohol & Alcoholism, 2007). She may want to consider whether her alcohol consumption plays a role in how much she smokes. Remember, the Arizona Smokers Helpline is free. ashline.org/help Only 15% of UA females used tobacco in the past 30 days. (Among students, more males smoke than females) (2012 Health & Wellness Survey, n=2,406)
