UA proposal to cost $80 - $160 million Mark Armao Arizona Summer Wildcat

Several UA administrators are working with city and county officials on a proposal to build two new university buildings in downtown Tucson.

The proposal would expand the university’s downtown presence by incorporating UArelated programs into an office tower, and by relocating two expansive art collections into a new museum.

The UA portion of the proposal would cost between $80 to $160 million, said County Administrator Chuck Huckelberry. The Pima County Bond Advisory Committee will vote on the proposal next fall.

The proposed office tower would be a 220,000-square-foot, 10-story building that would be used for multiple purposes including retail services and county functions, according to George Humphrey, the interim assistant vice president for university communications.

About one-third of the building would be used for UA-related purposes, including academic space as well as office space to “support start-up business ventures advanced by the UA McGuire Center for Entrepreneurship,” Humphrey said.

According to Huckelberry, the increased business opportunities would also boost

ResLife to offer new rental program for dorm room fridges Stephanie Casanova Arizona Summer Wildcat

Unlike previous years, incoming students who plan to live on campus will no longer be offered a free mini-fridge for their dorm

rooms.

Instead, the UA has implemented a new residence life program that will offer students an opportunity to rent a combined microwave and refrigerator to keep in their dorms.

The Microfridge will be offered for $214 per academic year by Collegiate Concepts, Inc., a private company working with Residence Life.

Students may bring their own minifridge and microwave as long as the measurements are equal to or less than the Microfridge.

The new program is a way to keep rates low for students paying for on-campus housing, as maintenance and replacement costs for refrigerators was becoming costly, said Alex Blandeburgo, director of residential facilities at Residence Life.

“I think it’s a great service,” Blandeburgo said. “And it’s an option. It’s not something that you have to have.”

If students order the Microfridge by Aug.

8, they can receive a $20 discount and have it installed in their room by the time they move in, Blandeburgo said.

In the past, a mini-fridge has been included in each room. Though the minifridge was smaller than the one being offered by Collegiate Concepts, the cost was also previously included in the price of the dorm room.

Some students said they don’t mind the idea of renting a fridge because of its bigger size and the fact that it comes with both a freezer and a microwave.

Kevin Paulson, a pre-journalism freshman, said the Microfridge sounds like a good alternative that isn’t overly

Externship program teaches sustainability Jalyn Wheatley Arizona Summer Wildcat

Several students are working this summer as “externs,” helping communities across the state with various sustainability projects.

The term “externship” came from a play on words created by the Arizona Cooperative Extension and the fact that students are getting hands-on experience outside in the field, said Mark Apel, an extension agent in Cochise County.

The program is designed to give students from the University of Arizona an opportunity to bring the “expertise of sustainability off campus and into our communities,” Apel said.

The program also gives preference to students who live in the communities they serve because they know and understand the community, he added.

Erika LaPlante, an environmental science senior and extern for Tucson Village Farm, said she has learned the importance of community through the opportunity.

“As a student at the University of Arizona, my life was so limited and here [on the farm], I’ve gotten to meet so many more people and so many more families and I really feel part of the community,” LaPlante said.

This is LaPlante’s second year externing at Tucson Village Farm, where she helps with a two-week farm camp as well as other chores for the camp. She teaches children about different health foods such as greens, dairy, and how to grow food and prepare it.

The program is a “whole seed to table program,” according to 4-H Youth Development Assistant Agent Elizabeth Sparks.

“The Tucson Village Farm is an urban farm for kids, by kids. Kids are out here planting, harvesting, tilling the land, and then we teach them how to eat what was grown,” Spark said.

“They harvested potatoes and made potato salad. They harvested wheat and now they’re making bread.”

The Tucson Village Farm also offers “you-picks” after each harvest, where the community is allowed to come to the farm and pick vegetables for a cheaper price than what they would pay at a grocery store. This offers the community healthy, inexpensive options and provides the Tucson Village Farm a source of revenue. Excess food is donated to the St. Mary’s Food Bank.

The farm began in January 2010. Sparks said she wanted to bring kids to the farm to teach them sustainable ways to grow and make their own food. Directors quickly realized they needed help with farming and food production, so they applied for assistance from the Green Fund.

The Green Fund, according to Apel, is a program dedicated to offering sustainable solutions to the UA. The Green Fund Committee, made up of 10 UA students advised by faculty, decides where to allocate $400,000 raised by tuition fees for the Green Fund.

While most externs come from the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, several students have majors ranging from environmental science to public health and nutrition.

One extern at the Tucson Village Farm is designing a “fuel from the farm” sports nutrition program. Other externs around the state help with programs ranging from community compost to horticultural videos for

Some projects include a garden at Bisbee High School, irrigation systems in Maricopa County and a community farm in Safford.

This summer, there are 11 externs working in seven different counties.

“The best part about these externships, is that students actually take leadership roles in the projects and come away with much more

AJ Argueta, an agriculture education freshman, said he expected to have a mini-fridge in his dorm already, since he had heard from friends that the UA provided them.

“I would rather have the free one,” Argueta said. “I don’t have a mini-fridge just lying around.”

valuable experience,” Apel said.

For some students, these externships also offer a chance for growth and a sense of community.

“I have grown in myself and in my major and what my interests are,” LaPlante said. “It helps me feel a sense of community here in Tucson that I wouldn’t have gotten any other way.

We’re a family here at the farm and it’s worth it.”

Yavapai Residence Hall last year, said the mini-fridge he was provided with was big enough for him and his roommate to share. The new program, Isaacson added, seems to benefit the university more than it does the students.

“I do not understand why the default is now no fridge rather than the inferior fridge,” Isaacson said. “This seems more like a cost-saving measure.”

UA library to equip desks with outlets CASEY KNOX Arizona Summer Wildcat

I

n 1976, the UA Main Library was built on a sturdy foundation of mortared brick and was four stories tall.

Twenty-six years after, the Information Commons and a fifth floor was opened.

And now, the library is outdated. The chairs are upholstered with ‘70s-looking fabric, and the desks are covered with carvings of phone numbers, initials and pleas for help. After all, the library serves 40,000 students and is also open to the public.

However, renovations are constantly being made to keep the library modern.

Hayri Yildirim, assistant director of library facilities, said the renovations to the library are an ongoing process.

If you’re wondering where our student library fees and funds from the state are going, wonder no longer.

Yildirim said one of the biggest

The Arizona Summer Wildcat Editorial Policy

renovation requests made is that there aren’t enough power sources to supply students with when the building reaches its capacity around midterms and finals week.

Remember the night preceding your most important final and the frustration you felt after scaling all five floors to find an empty desk near an outlet?

The library’s management team is taking care of its students this summer to prevent this from happening next semester. Yildirim said library facilities has created an “under carpet power source.” Outlets will be found at the tops of the desks and the cords will feed into the columns. The wires inside the columns will run down under the carpeting.

By fall semester, Yildirim expects to have 12 areas of desks supplied with this energy source, where each area holds six to eight desks. He estimates this improvement has increased the power accessibility of the library in the last six months by 60 to 70 percent.

The library gives students the option to request changes and renovations they see fit for their learning place. Comments and suggestions are displayed on a “report card,” located on the second floor of the library.

This type of communication is what makes library improvements so effective, as they are perfectly tailored to student’s changing needs.

Although most floors of the library don’t have the modernistic look other school libraries do, every penny is spent practically.

“We don’t waste your money,” Yildirim said. “We use it very wisely.”

Suspicious duffel bag

A suspicious duffel bag was reported at the James E. Rogers College of Law last week, at approximately 8:42 a.m.

The bag, lying near a wheelchair access ramp on the south side of the College of Law, was narrow and black, and hidden underneath some bushes.

The bag contained several personal hygiene products and a garage door opener. A torn shoulder strap was also found near the bag. There was no identification in or around the bag.

Maybe it’s Maybelline

A non-UA affiliated man was cited and released last week after attempting to shoplift from the UofA Bookstore.

The man attemped to steal $41.92 worth of makeup products at approximately 11:42 a.m., and was reported by a loss prevention employee.

The man said he had not meant to steal the makeup, adding that he had been writing information down about an internship for a UofA Bookstore employee at the time of the incident.

He claimed to have forgotten to pay for the makeup, which he had put in his pocket.

The man said that he will be contacting his attorney and the Dean of Students so he can return to the bookstores.

The Bolt-Cutter Trespasser

A non-UA affiliated man was arrested near Mountain Avenue at 5:21 a.m. last week on charges of trespassing after having a warrant from the Tucson Police Department.

The University of Arizona Police Department received a report of a man carrying a sack looking into car windows and walking into the courtyard of the Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering building. A UAPD officer stopped the man and informed him of the suspicious activity report. The man admitted to walking through the AME courtyard to get a drink from the water fountain.

A records check of the man showed a failure to appear warrant from TPD for trespassing. UAPD officers searched the sack finding clothes and large black bolt cutters.

The man was arrested and told not to return to the UA campus unless he had a legitimate reason.

The bolt cutters and all other items found on the man were taken into property as evidence.

Three UA students have been recognized for their “service, leadership and academic excellence,” joining the fifth class of Tillman Military Scholars.

The Pat Tillman Foundation was founded in 2004 following the death of Pat Tillman, a graduate of Arizona State University and a safety for the Arizona Cardinals.

After Sept. 11, 2001, Tillman enlisted in the military as an Army Ranger, leaving behind his football career. In 2004, Tillman was killed in Afghanistan by “friendly fire.”

The Tillman Military Scholars program began in 2008, according to Cara Hammer, program coordinator for the Pat Tillman Foundation.

“The Pat Tillman Foundation is looking to select leaders that have the potential and drive to make an impact, not only in their local community, but service to others,” Hammer said.

After discovering the challenges faced by military families and the increased need for educational resources, Marie Tillman, the widow of Pat Tillman and president and co-founder of the Pat Tillman Foundation, decided to focus the foundation’s mission on serving that population, Hammer added.

This year, Felisa Dyrud, Adam Ratesic and Jose Cervantes, all of whom have served overseas, were awarded the scholarship.

Dyrud, a doctoral student studying Persian literature in Afghanistan, said her interest in Central Asia and the Middle East began when she lived in Kazakhstan as a teenager.

Dyrud said she joined the Air Force in June 2001. She said she became interested in Afghanistan after 9/11. “…I left the Air Force Academy after my sophomore year,” Dyrud said. “Three of my classmates came and spent about a year in Kabul as civilian volunteers.”

Both Dyrud and Ratesic said they felt the inspiration and heroism of Pat Tillman.

“I think it really speaks to the kind of person he was and the kind of character he had that he wanted to do that,” Dyrud said. “I find it, personally, extremely inspiring.”

Ratesic said Tillman’s story gives him goosebumps.

“He was in the NFL and he left the NFL to serve his country,” Ratesic said. “That’s very honorable.”

Ratesic said he came from a difficult background and joined the Air Force, hoping to be a leader for his siblings. His stint was cut short after he suffered a severe infection that left him in a coma for 27 hours.

“I was expected to die,” Ratesic said. “I somehow survived the coma, but the infection triggered a secondary condition and I began experiencing signs and symptoms of an autoimmune disease.”

A year later, Ratesic was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and was disqualified from performing rescue flight missions.

courtesy of the pat tillman foundation

Pat Tillman left his career in the NFL to enlist in the military after Sept. 11, 2001. He was killed in 2004 from “friendly fire.” In honor of Tillman’s service, the Pat Tillman Foundation provides scholarships to students who show leadership and excellence in academics.

This news inspired Ratesic to pursue a career in medicine and help others who also suffer from rheumatoid arthritis.

“Here I am, I’m a patient for life. I have an autoimmune disease and it’s an instant connection to people who have autoimmune diseases,” Ratesic said.

Jose Cervantes is a first year graduate student who will be studying medicine this fall. While Cervantes could not be reached for an interview, Ratesic commented about on his friend.

“I feel as I could talk all day about Jose,” Ratesic said. “He’s such an incredible person.

Jose has overcome a lot in his life to get to where he is.”

According to the Pat Tillman Foundation website, the Tillman Military Scholars program

“aids all veterans, specifically the ever-growing population of veterans of Post-9/11 conflicts.”

Since it began, the program has given more than $3.2 million to more than 230 scholars.

“I’m here [in Afghanistan] because we have invested so much in having a shot at peace and liberty…” Dyrud said. “I think Pat would’ve wanted an ending and the friends that I lost here would have been proud too.”

Each of the selected Tillman Military Scholars is an investment of something much greater, Hammer said.

“We’re investing in military service members, veterans and their spouses,” she said. “To create their own legacy and to share Pat’s legacy.”

the downtown economy not only by attracting students and entrepreneurs, but also by bringing back businesses and commerce that have been decentralized on the last 40 years.

Also proposed is the construction of a 125,000-square-foot museum to showcase the UA’s extensive photography and art collections.

Although a specific site has not yet been selected, Vice President of Business Affairs Bob Smith said relocating the museum downtown will not only increase the number of visitors, but also add to the “cultural enrichment of the area.”

The museum currently houses more than 6,000 pieces, valued at more than $500 million, including rare art from Europe and the United States, according to Humphrey.

The collection, along with artwork from the Center for Creative Photography, including works by renowned photographers Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, would be combined under one roof according to the proposal.

Currently, these facilities are undersized and underutilized by the community, Smith said.

“We desperately need a new building,” said Lauren Rabb, a curator at the UA Museum of Art.

News • Wednesday, June 12, 2013 Along with being old, Rabb said the building’s lack of space means only a small percentage of the collection can be shown at one time.

Both projects are still in the early planning phase and Huckelberry noted that both the office space and the museum could end up being combined into one building.

The planners are using Arizona State University downtown Phoenix campus as a model for their proposal. Established in 2006, the campus cost more than $200 million and was paid for by the city of Phoenix through a bond bill.

The final vote by the Bond Advisory Committee to approve the proposals for Tucson’s project will take place in November 2014.

“These two ideas of potential business center, academic program and museum complex all contribute to the urban development that would help to make the city a place where our UA graduates and other young professionals would want to live,” Smith said.

If approved, the projects would add to a long list of developments enacted by the city to help revitalize the downtown area.

“I know the community has long struggled to turn downtown into a real destination,” Humphrey said. “If some of these plans come to fruition, downtown Tucson’s going to be a pretty amazing place.”

Barrett, Lalang capture titles Chris Real Arizona Summer Wildcat

The Arizona men’s and women’s track and field teams placed 10th and sixth respectively in the NCAA Outdoor Championships in Eugene, Ore. While neither team came away with a title, senior Brigetta Barrett and junior Lawi Lalang both secured their place in the history books.

Barrett carried with her the momentum from her record-breaking performance at the Pac-12 Championships to defend her NCAA title in the high jump. Barrett used a 10-step approach, as opposed to the 12-step she used to break the world record in Los Angeles, to win with a mark of 6-4.75 (1.95 meters) and capture her sixth-straight NCAA Championship.

“I think her performance was absolutely stellar,” head coach Fred Harvey said.

Yet, Barrett’s first place finish, as well as the runner-up finish from senior Georganne Moline in the 400-meter hurdles, wasn’t enough to help the No. 6 Wildcats contend for the overall title. The women’s team tied for sixth with Stanford, earning 33 total points.

Still Barrett finished off her Arizona career where she’s been the past three years — at the top of her sport.

“The goal is to become the best high jumper the world has ever seen,” Barrett said in a statement to Oregon’s athletic department. “I still have a lot of growing in different areas, but I’d like to be the World Champion.”

Barrett will be preparing for World Nationals now that she’s graduated from Arizona. She leaves behind a career that saw her win three consecutive indoor and outdoor titles as well as a world record.

Junior distance runner Lawi Lalang also found success, winning both the 5,000 meter and 10,000 meter race, the only track athlete to win two NCAA individual titles in Eugene.

“You have to marvel at the ability level, the physical standpoint of view and the mental standpoint of view,” Harvey said about Lalang winning two NCAA titles. “It’s absolutely fantastic.”

Like Barrett, Lalang also carried with him momentum from a Pac-12 Championship in the 10,000-meter race, but Lalang said in a press release that taking home both titles was no easy task.

“It was kind of hard and I had to push it from the start,” Lalang said. “I’m not surprised nobody made a move because I knew it was not an easy pace and that’s why I wanted to push it like that.”

JUNIOR LAWI LALANG finished first in both the 5,000 meter and 10,000 meter race in Eugene, Ore., to win two NCAA Championships this past weekend. Lalang was the only track athlete to win two NCAA individual titles.

Aside from Lalang, only senior Edgar Rivera-Morales competed in the NCAA Championships, finishing eighth in the men’s high jump. Even with the two NCAA Championships from Lalang, the No. 22 Arizona men’s team finished with 20.5 points for 10th place.

“Across the board, looking at all the young ladies, what they did, I’m very proud of them,” Harvey said, “as well as Lawi winning two national titles.”

Junior Julie Labonté competed in field events for the UA, finishing second in discus and fifth in the shot put. These two finishes sealed Labonté as a First Team All-American.

Yet, one performance that Harvey said stood out to him was from freshman Nicci Corbin. Corbin, a distance runner, finished 14th in the 5,000-meter race.

“Our young freshman, Nicci Corbin, was just stellar,” Harvey said. “Her very first national championship, she goes and nails down a second team All-American performance.”

With the season over, Harvey is already planning on repeat performances next year for both the men’s and women’s team.

“We have a very special group of young men that we return and some that we’ve signed,” Harvey said about the chances of next year’s men’s team. “We think we have a team that should challenge to be a top five team.”

Despite Moline and Barrett’s absense, Harvey said the goals for the women’s team are still very high.

“We won’t have any of the same headliners, but the goal is to be a top 10 program nationally next year,” he said. “We feel challenging for a National Title just might be in the cards.”

an Antonio was trailing the Miami Heat by 24 points in the fourth quarter of game two of the NBA Finals. With 7:43 remaining, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich called a full timeout to pull his entire starting lineup and ultimately concede defeat.

Yet, with a full squad of reserves out on the floor, power forward Aron Baynes remained inactive on the bench, not even part of the 13man Spurs roster. This doesn’t come as much of a surprise, considering that the 26-yearold rookie hasn’t played since San Antonio’s sweep of the Lakers. In fact, Baynes has only played a combined 163 minutes in his 20 appearances this season.

But, even as the token Brian Scalabrine at the end of the bench, the New Zealand native carries an important mantle in the Finals — Baynes, a former Washington State Cougar, is the Pac-12’s lone representative.

It’s an honor Baynes should be proud of, too.

In the 17 prior NBA Finals, there were at least two Pac-12 alumni on the rosters.

Just go back to 2002, when eight different Pac-12 players participated in Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal’s dismantling of Richard Jefferson, Jason Kidd (California) and the New Jersey Nets. That Finals even featured two Stanford men with Mark Madsen on the Lakers and the now famous Jason Collins on the Nets.

The last time there was just a single Pac-12 player in the Finals, LeBron James was just finishing up fourth grade. No seriously, James was 10 years old.

The now fossil-like Tim Duncan was recovering from Wake Forest’s Sweet Sixteen loss to Oklahoma State. Duncan, a sophomore

UA draft picks prepare for next phase in careers

TYLER BAKER/ARIZONA SUMMER WILDCAT

PITCHER KONNER WADE was the first of four Arizona pitchers selected in the MLB First-Year Player Draft.

EVAN ROSENFELD

Arizona Summer Wildcat

The Arizona baseball team may have failed to live up to expectations after winning the 2012 National Championship, but for third baseman Brandon Dixon the past season may have been just as fruitful.

After providing little offense as a sophomore, Dixon exploded in 2013 to win the Pac-12 batting title. He was rewarded Friday when the Los Angeles Dodgers drafted him in the 3rd round of the MLB First-Year Player Draft (the 92nd pick overall).

“I’m really excited and glad that the Dodgers gave me a chance,” Dixon said. “It’s a great opportunity to further my career and it’s a chance that I feel very lucky to have. [The draft] was everything I wanted, and I’m very excited to move on with my career as a Dodger. I couldn’t imagine being drafted by a better organization.”

Dixon was the highest picked Wildcat since 2008, which completes his transformation from last season. In 2012, Dixon started in less than two-thirds of the games for Arizona’s College World Series team. Of course, he capped off that season by driving in the winning run with a double against South Carolina to help clinch the title.

As a junior, the Murrieta, Calif., native exploded offensively, hitting .369 on the season and he was named to the Pac-12 All-Conference Team.

Dixon, who was also named a Louisville Slugger third-team All-American, became the third player in Arizona’s history to score at least 50 runs, hit 50 RBIs and steal 30 bases in the same season. This all comes after Dixon had a .245 average and just 14 RBIs as a sophomore.

“It feels great,” Dixon said. “But I haven’t made it yet. I still have a long way to go and it’s going to be hard. Baseball is a tough

sport and the competition gets better and better as you move forward.”

The man Dixon stole the batting crown from, center fielder Johnny Field, also heard his name called as the Tampa Bay Rays selected Field with the 158th pick.

“It means a lot,” Field said. “It’s a goal I have been looking forward to my whole life — to play college ball, play for a national championship and then come out as a junior and get drafted by a major league organization.

“It was unbelievable when my dream came true.”

Field has represented a key offensive and defensive cog in Arizona’s lineup over the past three years and compiled a career line of a .343 batting average, .518 slugging percentage and .431 on-base percentage.

The Las Vegas native collected 224 base hits, 165 runs scored, 115 RBI and stole 31 bases in his tenure as a Wildcat.

“It feels good,” Field said. “This is the start of a new chapter, but there’s still a lot of hard work that needs to be done now.

The minors are a huge grind and nothing like college baseball.”

Right-handed pitcher Konner Wade was selected in the 7th round with the 199th overall pick by the Colorado Rockies.

“It’s exciting because it’s an opportunity to begin to fulfill a lifelong dream,” Wade said. “I’ve been talking to the Rockies for a while, and I feel like it’s going to be a really good fit.”

Some problems however may arise, as the Rockies’ Coors Field is a notoriously hitter-friendly ballpark due to its high altitude. Nonetheless, the Scottsdale, Ariz., native said he isn’t concerned.

“Someone has to pitch there [and succeed],” Wade said. “So why can’t I be that guy? I think they like guys who have good movement and sinking action, so I think my arsenal will fit really well in this [park and] organization.”

ARIZONA DAILY WILDCAT

ONLY ARON BAYNES, a reserve for the San Antonio Spurs, represents the Pac-12 in the NBA Finals. The lack of alumni symbolizes the current slump of Pac-12 basketball.

at the time, just won his first of three-straight Defensive Player of the Year awards, while averaging 16.8 points and 12.5 rebounds per game. Now Duncan is playing in his 15th season and his fifth NBA Finals.

Back in 1995, Michael Jordan just returned to basketball after his failed stint of minor league baseball, playing in 17 regular season games before being ousted by the Orlando Magic in six. At that time people began doubting if Jordan would ever get his game back.

The last time only a single Pac-12 player was in the Finals, Hall-of-Fame center Hakeem Olajuwon and the Houston Rockets were sweeping a 23-year-old O’Neal and his Magic.

The man who was squarely in Baynes shoes?

UCLA small forward Tracy Murray.

While Murray was actually a first-round pick (unlike the undrafted Baynes), he was only on the Rockets as cap fodder, part of the deal that sent Portland’s Clyde Drexler to Houston in exchange for Otis Thorpe.

Like Baynes, Murray played a total of zero minutes in the finals, so a lack of a Pac-12 presence isn’t unheard of. It’s just very, very unusual.

And in 1995, the Pac-10 was still in its heyday. UCLA was a No. 1 seed in the tournament, both Arizona schools a No. 5 seed. Even future Pac-12 invitee Utah was a force as a No. 4 seed.

The Wildcats were coming off of a Final Four appearance the year before, led by now assistant coach Damon Stoudamire.

Oh, and the Bruins won their last NCAA Championship in 1995.

The Pac-10 was at the peak of its powers. It’d be hard to make any direct correlation then between the strength of the conference and the number of Pac-12 players in the Finals.

It’d also be unfair to say the Pac-12 is lacking in NBA players right now.

The conference still has the secondmost NBA players behind the Atlantic Coast confernce and all 12 teams have produced at least one current pro. Also, four Pac-12 alumni made the All-Star game — though 16 percent of the players isn’t exactly amazing.

Once you start to crunch the numbers, the flaws of the Pac-12 start to shine. Only three of the Top 40 performers in ESPN’s Player Efficiency Ratings are from the conference and just four in the Top 53 (Cal’s Ryan Anderson is No. 54).

Former Pac-12 players didn’t exactly have the best of luck either. Kevin Love, Chase Budinger, Malcolm Lee and Brandon Roy combined to play 62 games total this season (also all four played on the Minnesota Timberwolves). Channing Frye missed the entire season with a heart condition, Jordan Hill played just 32 games with the Lakers and Russell Westbrook tore his ACL in game two of the NBA playoffs.

Also, Kidd a Pac-12 and NBA great, called it quits a little more than a week ago to end his 19-year career. All in all, it was a bad season for the formerly great Pac-12 conference.

Baynes taking home the coveted Tracy Murphy Award might only be a nifty piece of trivia, and the lack of Pac-12 players in the Heat-Spurs Final might be due more to San Antonio’s love for international and smallschool talent than anything else.

Still, the fact that it’s Baynes carrying the mantle for the Pac-12 is an embarrassing state of affairs for the conference.

Hopefully this can act as a wake-up call that the conference needs to start producing more talent. Well, at least everyone but Arizona — Sean Miller seems to have the right idea with Aaron Gordon coming to Tucson.

Arizona Summer Wildcat • 15

Long journey has QB home in Tucson Derek Evans Arizona Summer Wildcat

Quarterback Jesse Scroggins went from being the second overall rated quarterback in the class of 2010, to backing up Matt Barkley at USC, to starting at El Camino Community College. But it seems that Scroggins might have found his place at the UA. Before arriving at Arizona though, the journey of the 6-foot-3, pro-style quarterback has been anything but conventional.

After being a backup to Barkley and never seeing the field, Scroggins decided it was time to transfer and went to El Camino Community College in Torrance, Calif.

On the field, Scroggins didn’t have the type of success one would expect from the secondrated high school quarterback. His experience, however, was anything but a failure.

“In [those] six months I think I learned more than I did in the past two years at [USC] because I was hungry,” he said.

While being at the bottom of the depth chart was already a humbling feeling for Scroggins, he said being around athletes who never had the chances he did was even more eyeopening.

“Not everyone gets this chance, not everyone has the ability to play at this level,” he said. “I wasn’t really taking advantage of that, or it wasn’t really clicking in my mind as I got older, you know, I started to feel better about myself.”

His numbers were subpar at El Camino,

completing 45.9 percent of his passes in eight games for 1,148 yards, eight touchdowns and five interceptions.

El Camino defensive coordinator Matt Kirk, who recruited Scroggins to the Warriors and helped market him to the UA, said his struggles were primarily due to Scroggins joining the team late.

“I thought Jesse struggled a little bit, as far as breaking reads,” Kirk said. “The West Coast

UA softball seeks come back with new talent James Kelley

Arizona Summer Wildcat

If one moment could sum up Arizona softball’s disappointing 2013 season, it would be senior day with the Wildcats trailing ASU by a run, with two on and two out in the bottom of the seventh inning.

In the crucial scoring opportunity, head coach Mike Candrea looked for someone to pinch hit.

He settled on Arizona freshman pitcher Nancy Bowling, who batted an underwhelming .209 during the season.

Bowling did her job, though, drawing a walk to load the bases for junior Alex Lavine. However, Lavine fell short as she watched strike three cross the plate, handing Arizona a

7-6 defeat.

“I really felt that there were times this year when we played well enough to compete with anyone and we just couldn’t sustain it,” Candrea said.

The Wildcats, who had their worst postseason performance since 1987, lose one senior but add five freshmen. The UA also has two experienced stars joining after they both redshirted this past season.

The lone loss, senior shortstop Brigette Del Ponte, was eighth on the team in batting, with a .241 average.

“It’s unfortunate losing Brigette, for sure, because she is a huge key player in our program,” junior catcher/first baseman Kelsey Rodriguez said.

“But we have more freshmen coming in. Next year is going to be different,

stuff we did was a little different than the newer spread offenses. So I thought he probably got out [to El Camino] late … he basically had 16 practices in the summer before he went into camp.”

Scroggins was limited in spring practice this year as well, but this time due to a toe injury. Still, Arizona co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Rod Smith said he thinks Scroggins could be a

that’s what it comes down to. We’re not going to have a repeat of this, we’re going to go all the way.”

Despite the senior day defeat, Arizona ended the regular season strong before being bounced by Baylor University in the College Station Regional. The Wildcats took two of three against then-No. 5 ASU and then-No. 13 Stanford.

“That’s where we should be and that’s where we are capable of being and that’s where we will be next year,” Rodriguez said.

Arizona will have five pitchers next season, instead of three like this year, which will give Candrea more options in addition to more competition. Junior pitcher Estela Piñon, who had the most success in the NCAA tournament after becoming a reliever, said she will be a closer again next season.

Fowler joins

returns,

Fox

One of the biggest additions will be the return of All-American Kenzie Fowler, who missed the entire season

very good fit for the Wildcats.

“We had a chance to see him do some things and he had some rust that showed,” Smith said. “We’re extremely excited about him. You can tell he’s a talented man.”

The rust was clearly evident in his very first pass attempt during the Spring Game. On Scroggins first play, he threw an interception to safety Tra’Mayne Bondurant.

He finished 6-for-17 for 44 yards and two touchdowns.

“From what he did and where he’s been, it seems like he has definitely matured. When he talks to you, he’s intelligent,” Smith said.

“He’s got his head screwed on right.”

Although Scroggins didn’t see the field, he said he still values the time he spent learning under Barkley.

“Matt Barkley did teach me some leadership roles, on and off the field,” Scroggins said. “Keeping eye on the ball, being focused, not letting things distract you.”

There’s no guarantee Scroggins will be the starting quarterback for the Wildcats, as he is in a three-man competition with senior B.J. Denker and incoming freshman Anu Solomon.

For winning the starting job, though, Scroggins said it’s not about being confident but performing every day. ”It’s about, you know, doing your job,” Scroggins said. “You just need to compete and do all you can, on and off the field.”

Briana Sanchez/Arizona Summer Wildcat SHORTSTOP Chelsea Suitos and the Wildcats lacked depth this past season.

while recovering from back surgery.

Fowler went 15-9 in 2012 with a 2.85 ERA as she dealt with the back injury all season, down from a combined 61-18 record and 2.23 ERA in her first two seasons.

“She’s healthy right now and that’s a big part,” Candrea said.

Still, Fowler’s 2012 stats would compare well to the 2013 pitching

staff. Piñon had Arizona’s best ERA (3.53) in 2013 and the pitching staff combined for a 3.90 ERA. Candrea said he is also excited to see Fowler bat again.

In 22 at-bats in 2010, Fowler hit .364 with six RBI and two home runs.

As a sophomore and junior though, Fowler did not play on offense.

“Hopefully we can utilize her a lot more on both sides of the plate,” Candrea said.

Shortstop Kellie Fox will be eligible to play again next season, after transferring from UCLA. Since Arizona’s last Women’s College World Series appearance in 2010, the Wildcats have had a different starter at shortstop each season.

Candrea said that Fox is a “very good defensive player” and praised her for her “quick” hands.

“Kellie is definitely going to provide some stability for us up the middle,” Candrea said. “And she can provide some punch for us offensively, so that will be another bat in the middle of our line up that will be very good.”
