Davis returns from injuryUK in the NBA 4

PHOTO BY JON KINNEMAN | STAFFWill Wright, co-founder of the new disc golf club team, throws a disc at practice at Veterans Park on Saturday, March 2.

Three determined studentsat UK have not let past failuresstop them from starting a newdisc golf club, which they aredetermined to keep alive.

Each previous disc golfclub at UK has failed, but twobrothers and their friend have

started a new club they thinkwill have the key to being thefirst true success.

“I think we are the fifthdisc golf team to be started atUK,” said Will Wright, journal-ism freshman and disc golfclub co-founder.

“Disc golf is cheap and fun,and anyone can play and thereis no experience necessary,”said Alex Wright, political sci-

ence junior and disc golf clubco-founder.

Will and Alex Wright start-ed playing disc golf two sum-mers ago on their PlayStationand last semester decided tostart a team at UK.

The team said that disc golfis a growing sport and theywere surprised at how manypeople were interested whenthey looked into starting theclub.

Currently, they play tourna-ments under the Bluegrass DiscGolf Association at Shilito

Park,Veterans Park and RiverHill Park, which all have discgolf courses.

Four people are presently inthe club and they are waitingfor warmer weather to start re-cruiting for the disc golf seasonin the spring.

Even though they know thepressure is on, being the fifthdisc golf club, they think theyhave what it takes for theirteam to make it.

The UK School of Journalism andTelecommunications held its annual FirstAmendment Celebration in the W.T. Young au-ditorium Monday night.

Kim Greene, a Louisville attorney, wasawarded the James Madison Award for Serviceto the First Amendment by the ScrippsHoward First Amendment Center for her longcareer with news organizations from aroundthe state.

“The First Amendment is just that specialingredient that makes our country so differentfrom all others,” Greene said in her acceptancespeech.

“Having the ability to explore the world,say something outrageous with total impunity… not everyone has that ability; you do,”Greene said later in the evening.

The award ceremony was followed by aState of the First Amendment Address by for-mer Kentucky Secretary of State, TreyGrayson.

“Public discussion is a political duty, andthat should be a fundamental principle ofAmerican government,” Grayson said, quot-ing the late Supreme Court Justice LouisBrandeis.

A Kentucky native with two degrees fromUK, Grayson served on the Institute of PoliticsSenior Advisory Committee for six years atHarvard University before becoming the direc-tor of the I.O.P. in January 2011.

Grayson is involved in the institute’s re-search on the political beliefs of Millennials,people ages 18-29, along with issues like civiceducation and voter registration reform.

After winning his first election for politicaloffice, Grayson became the youngest secretaryof state in the country. He served two terms assecretary from 2004-2011.

Grayson’s address focused on the wayselections and the First Amendment intersect,and spoke on a number of current and pastelection issues.

He began with a brief history of votingrights in the United States.

“Historically, elections have been verymuch a state concern,” Grayson said. “So you

With an expected incoming freshman classof approximately 5,500 students in fall 2013,UK has begun to make preparations to accom-modate the incredible influx of students.

Campus housing has traditionally beenavailable, but not required, for all UK students.Most upperclassmen typically move off cam-pus to apartments, private houses or Greekhouses, but until this year, there has not been alimitation on how many upperclassmen arepermitted to live on campus.

“We have adequate capacity for freshmen,”said Penny Cox, UK’s housing implementationdirector. “But with our freshman class grow-ing, we have very few beds for returning stu-dents.”

In response to this need for extra space, theuniversity has entered into a master leaseagreement with Royal Lexington Apartments.

Reed named SEC Player of the Week

Three puppies joinservice dog program

Joining the current WildcatService Dogs training class ofRory, Miles and their respec-tive trainers, Jennifer Lyonsand Katie McKenzie, are threenew puppies learning to carrykeys and press handicap but-tons for their owners acrosscampus.

Rachel Martell’s dog, Jack-son, is a six-month-old fullbredblack lab who is relishing hisrole as a service dog in-training. Jackson is alreadywilling and able to carryMartell’s wallet across campusfor her.

“He’s well behaved,” saidMartell, an equine science andmanagement freshman. “He’sreally willing to please me,which makes it really easy totrain him.”

“I have been riding horsessince I was five, and I just gotdone training a horse before Igot back (to UK), and obvious-

ly I have pets at home,”Martell said of her experi-ence working with ani-mals prior to WildcatService Dogs.

Adrian McKinney,chemistry sophomore, andher dog, Riley, have alsojoined the ranks of servicedogs training across UKcampus.

“He’s five months old andsleeps a lot, but still loves toplay,” McKinney said of Riley,the miniature golden retrievershe is working with.

Both Martell and McKin-ney were, at least in part, in-spired to join Wildcat ServiceDogs because they missed theirown dogs at home.

“Originally my roommatefrom last year wanted to get in-volved,” McKinney said, buther roommate became too busy.“So it just became my thing ...Now she jokes that she’s Ri-ley’s aunt.”

The third new dog to UK’scampus also spends part of histime at the Kentucky Correc-

tional Insti-tute forWomen, amedium-se-curity prisonlocated inLouisvi l le ,Ky.

LOS ANGELES — Warner Bros.’ NewLine division may be let down over the under-whelming opening of its big-budget “Jack theGiant Slayer,” but at least the company hassomething else to celebrate: This past week-end “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey”surpassed $1 billion.

The first in Peter Jackson’s 3-D film trilo-gy based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s 1937 novel onSunday became the 15th film to gross morethan $1 billion at the global box office. Jack-son’s “The Lord of the Rings: The Return ofthe King” is also a member of the club; the2003 release ended up with a worldwide tallyof $1.1 billion.

When “The Hobbit” debuted in the U.S.and Canada in December, its $84.6 millionlaunch was far below what industry pollinghad suggested the film would start with. How-ever, the movie proved it had legs and endedup grossing $301.4 million domestically.

But it was its phenomenal overseas per-

formance that turned the $250 million produc-tion into a hit. The movie about a hobbit tryingto save dwarfs from a dragon has sold $700million worth of tickets internationally —roughly 70 percent of its overall gross. Its re-cent performance in China helped to push“The Hobbit” past $1 billion, as it collected$37.3 million in 10 days. The movie did best,however, in Germany and the United King-dom, grossing more than $80 million in eachforeign market.

“The Hobbit: The Desolation ofSmaug,” the second entry in Jackson’s trilo-gy, is set to hit theaters Dec. 13. Last week,however, Warner Bros. announced that thethird installment, “The Hobbit: There andBack Again,” would be released later thanexpected. It was initially set to debut in July2014 but will be released in December2014.

pose vest for his weeks inLouisville, and when in Lex-ington, wears a vest that hasa Wildcat Service Dogspatch on one side and aPaws with Purpose patch onthe other, Skarvan said.

“The partnership withPaws with Purpose ... is real-ly nice, as they pay for hisfood, and every time I pickhim up he’s groomed andhe’s clean,” Skarvan said.

Skarvan works withChevy for a week, drops himoff for a week of classes andtraining at the KentuckyCorrectional Institute forWomen, then picks him upto see what progress he’smade with his other trainer.

“The only downside is Idrive to Louisville every

weekend ... I either have topick him up or drop him offfor class every Saturday,”Skarvan said of the dualtrainer arrangement.

The two trainers don’tknow each other very well;their only connection isChevy.

“Our relationship isstrictly professional. Weonly talk about the dogs ...I’m not allowed to tell hermy favorite color and I don’tknow what she’s in (the in-stitute) for,” Skarvan said.

“I show her what I’vebeen working on and she’llpick up where I’ve left off,”Skarvan said.

Chevy’s dual-trainerarrangement is a trial run forpossible future partnershipswith Paws with Purpose, butis new for both groups.

Wildcat Service Dogsnot only has a new partner-ship to experiment with, but

also had a busy Februaryschedule, which included afundraising pet wash at PetPaws Self Serve Pet Wash.

The dogs and trainers at-tended a birthday party forRory, who turned one-year-old.

And all current trainers,dogs and program officersvisited Blazer Hall last weekto enlighten the residentsabout the Wildcat ServiceDogs program and servicedogs in general.

Despite their busy calen-dars, and the occasional needfor a dog babysitter from theWSD program while thetrainers take exams, all fivetrainers are still enthusedabout their role in helping aservice dog learn how best tohelp its future owner.

“It’s definitely a lot ofwork,” McKinney said. “Butat the same time, it’s defi-nitely very rewarding.”

bumped from No. 8 to No. 7in the latest Collegiate Base-ball rankings.

A number of playershave played strong in theearly season, including soph-omore pitcher/first basemanA.J. Reed, who was namedboth SEC Player of theWeek and Louisville SluggerPlayer of the Week.

Reed hit .526 (10-for-19)in the Cats’ five games dur-ing the week, hitting threehome runs and picking up 15RBIs. The sophomore alsostarted Friday’s 21-2 rout of

Akron, allowing six hitswhile striking out four in sixinnings of work for his sec-ond win of the season.

Reed’s four home runsand 22 RBIs leads the Catsin both categories. He is alsohitting .409 on the season, apercentage bettered by onlyone other UK starter, juniorinfielder J.T. Riddle.

Cincinnati’s lineup does-n’t boast a player with a bat-ting average as high as Rid-dle’s .447, but the Bearcatsstat line for base steals doesstand out. The Bearcats havestolen 17 bases on the sea-son in 20 attempts, some-thing UK’s junior catcherMicheal Thomas will need

to watch out for Tuesday.Freshman infielder

Devin Wenzel leads Cincin-nati in home runs, RBIs andhits, while owning the sec-ond highest batting averageand slugging percentageamongst starters.

According to the terms ofthis lease, the university willpay the apartment complexfor their spaces, and then willassign students to their apart-ments. Special preferencewill be given to juniors andseniors.

Ben Crutcher, the associ-ate vice president of auxiliaryservices, provided more de-tails on the subject.

“The university executeda lease of Royal LexingtonApartments after issuing a

Request for Proposals for stu-dent housing intended for up-perclass students. The leaseincluded three-bedroom andfour-bedroom apartmentswith 364 beds in total,” hesaid.

As for pricing, the apart-ments will be slightly moreexpensive per semester thanon-campus housing. “Therent is $3,425 per semestercompared to $3,325 for a pre-mium suite on campus,”Crutcher said.

Students will benefit fromliving at Royal Lex comparedwith other apartment com-plexes next semester becauseResidence Life staff will bepresent, and so it will bemanaged similarly to on-cam-pus housing.

“The same housing rulesand University Code of Con-duct will apply,” Crutcherelaborated. “University Of-

fice of Residence Life willhave staff on the property toprovide residents variousprograms. They (Royal Lexmanagement) are very sup-portive of having their facul-ty full of university stu-dents.”

Parking is not expected tobe an issue, as the apartmentcomplex will provide parkingspaces for residents, as wellas an optional meal plan.

“We have many studentswho have notified us thatthey would like to live inRoyal Lex. We still haveroom for additional applica-tions. Interested studentsshould notify the Housing As-signment Office inFunkhouser,” Crutcher said.

The lease period will be-gin on Aug. 1, 2013 and endon June 30, 2014, with theavailability of four-year ex-tension options.

Grayson went on to dis-cuss the laws and amend-ments implemented by thefederal government in an ef-fort to normalize the voting

practice. “Many of these amend-

ments came as the result ofmovements,” Grayson said.“And these movements camefrom individuals that exer-cised their First Amendmentrights.”

Grayson also recalled in-stances when election law hascome into conflict with theFirst Amendment, includinglong litigation on the practice

of electioneering in the state.The speech was followed

by a Q&A session whereGrayson spoke on topics suchas Citizen’s United, the rise ofnew media, and voter IDlaws.

Students responded wellto the event.

College baseball is be-coming important in Lex-ington and Louisville.Both the Cats and the Car-dinals are ranked in the top10 in several nationalpolls, and each team haslooked impressive throughthe first three weekends ofthe year.

But neither team will seeeach other until April, in themidst of conference play.

UK will be nine gamesinto their SEC gauntlet ofa schedule when they playat Louisville on April 2, aswill the Cardinals. TheCats will be 15 games in(with 15 games left) to theconference schedule whenthey host Louisville onApril 16, three days beforea three-game series at No.4 LSU.

Even if both teams werenot focused on the confer-

ence race, midweek games(both games this season areon Tuesdays) force bothsquads to look to midweekstarters who are, at best, thefourth or fifth best startingpitcher on each staff.

If UK and Louisvillewant to become prominentprograms in college base-ball, they have to becomeprominent in the minds ofcollege sports fans in theBluegrass State. UK coachGary Henderson andLouisville head coach DanMcDonnell are failing to doso, stashing two weekdaygames in April that couldnot be less important in thescope of the fans or the sea-son.

Each coach should sheda weekend series against amid-major program to openup a weekend each year forthese games to take place.The only decision would bewhere to play the games,which should not be diffi-cult.

The coaches would havetwo viable options: Play twogames at one school and agame at the other school,or play all three games atone school. The homesites would flip every sea-son.

Conceivably, no oth-er series against any oth-er program will bringfans to the ballpark inthe March weather ineither town or at a neu-tral site. Holding a three-game series each year asa feature attraction in thenon-conference schedulewill help bring in fans

that would not come watchthe Cardinals play KentState or see the Cats playAkron.

The fans deserve better,especially when the rivalschool comes to play.

The Cats and the Cardi-nals have not played inback-to-back days sinceApril 1988 and have notplayed three games in a sea-son against each other sinceat least 1979, the most re-cent date it is documented ifthe teams played in a three-game series or not.

Both programs arehandicapping a potentialschedule gem the way itstands now. Other in-state,out-of-conference rivalsstage a three-game serieson a March weekend be-fore conference play. Lastweekend, Miami playedFlorida and Clemsonplayed South Carolina inthree-game series wherecrowds topped 3,000 attheir smallest and over8,000 at their largest.

ESPNU televised the

Gainesville Regional in2011 (featuring Florida andMiami) and the ColumbiaRegional (featuring SouthCarolina and Clemson).

The lesson: Rivalriessell and are interesting bothregionally and nationally.And exposure is important,especially in a sport wheregames are not on televisionevery day throughout theseason.

UK may not earn televi-sion exposure immediatelyif such a move is made, buta move will show UK-Louisville as a rivalry be-tween two of the best in col-lege baseball right now.Consistency has to beginsomewhere.

The change must hap-pen, or else college base-ball in the state of Ken-tucky will continue to bestrapped into the backseat,growing bigger than itsseat, but not able to be un-buckled to explore andgrow in ways other schoolsand rivalries around thecountry have done.

As baseball hype grows, teams should play 3-game series every spring

STAFF FILE PHOTOA UK infielder dives for a grounder against Louisville on April 10, 2012.

Week 17 in the NBA forformer Cats was headlinedby some notable perform-ances accompanied also bysome notable absences.

Anthony Davis had ar-guably one of the mostmemorable seasons in UKhistory after winning NCAAplayer of the year, freshmenof the year and, most no-tably, leading the Cats totheir eighth National Cham-pionship

The former All-Ameri-can has had much less luckin the NBA and has beenplagued with one injury afteranother, totaling up to Davismissing 15 games for theNew Orleans Hornets afterhe suffered a shoulder sprainon Feb. 26 in the third quar-ter against the BrooklynNets and Keith Bogans.

Davis missed the nexttwo games, which wouldhave pitted him against for-mer Cats DeAndre Ligginsand Daniel Orton of theOklahoma City Thunder, aswell as Brandon Knight ofthe Detroit Pistons.

Davis was cleared toplay in Monday’s gameagainst the Orlando Magicand former teammate DoronLamb.

Another former Cat thathasn’t been seeing as muchaction as of late is Los Ange-les Clippers point guard EricBledsoe. Since the return ofveteran Chauncey Billups,Bledsoe’s minutes as well asstatistics have declined.

A few miles up the roadfrom Bledsoe, the Sacra-mento Kings and formerCats DeMarcus Cousins,Chuck Hayes and PatrickPatterson hit the road to facethe defending champion Mi-

ami Heat. That Tuesday night

turned out to be a monsternight for Cousins, whoracked up 24 points alongwith 15 rebounds.

The performance left theKings short, as the Heat fi-nally overpowered Sacra-mento, 141-129 in a thrillingdouble-overtime game.

Wednesday night, thePistons and WashingtonWizards faced off in amatchup featuring two for-mer UK point guards goinghead-to-head.

Knight scored a career-high 32 points on 11-18shooting and four assists in anail-biting 96-95 victoryover the Wizards and JohnWall, who had only sixpoints on 3-9 shooting withfour assists to matchKnight’s passing perform-ance.

When Benjamin Standig

of CSNWashington.comasked Pistons head coachLawrence Frank aboutKnight’s performance, hejokingly replied, “Brandon, Ithink we’re going to have torest him. I think he’s onlygoing to be able to play onegame a week.”

Enes Kanter of the UtahJazz also put on a careernight last week. On March 1against the Charlotte Bob-cats and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Kanter put up 23point along with 22 re-bounds in a dominating 98-68 win over the Bobcats.

“I wasn’t expecting a 20-20 game,” Kanter told An-drew Aragon of NBA.comafter the game. “It was mysecond time in the startingfive.”

Kidd-Gilchrist finishedwith eight points and fourrebounds for the Bobcats inthe loss.

Kanter puts up 23 points, 20 rebounds in win over Charlotte
