ID ilat Madness

By 0. Jason Stapleton
Senior Staff Writer

Memorial Coliseum was the
site of Friday’s Bi Blue Madness.

This is not to e confused with
Midni ht Madness, however.

Mi ni ht Madness was a wildly
successfu event that filled the
Coliseum to capacity year after
year.

Big Blue Madness, on the other
hand, found itself unequal to the
standard set by its predecessor
Friday night.

The major difference between
the two events was the time.

Midnight Madness always took
place just after midnight on the
ver first day the NCAA declared
colliege hoops could begin regular
practice.

Big Blue Madness ignored tra-
dition and took place on a nonde-
script Frida evening.

The en result, to everyone’s
surprise, Memorial Coliseum was
not filled when the 1996-97 UK
Wildcats were formally intro—
duced for the first time.

business freshman. “Then I get in
and look up at the top rows and
see that all the seats aren’t even
filled.”

A general feeling of disappoint-
ment came over the fans who were
in attendance, many of whom felt
it was a waste of their time.

“I enjoyed it, but I was really
disappointed for a lack of hype,”
said Kim Fister, a social work
junior. “I think it would have been
better if they had stuck with tradi-
tion and held it at midnight.”

Fister also said ifthe event had
been held at midnight, more peo—
ple would have come.

Some fans were still at work
when the event started.

On the positive side for Big
Blue Madness, the slam dunk
competition between the players
ignited the fans that had attended
Madness.

The highlight of that would
have to be when freshman sensa~
tion Jamaal Magliore dunked two

moment still doesn’t make up for
the overall lackluster night, show-
ing that tradition should not be
messed with.

Cats blast WMII
6-0 in case finale

By Jill Erwin
Staff Writer

The UK men’s soccer team
sent the Cage out in style, domi-
nating Western Michigan yester-
day to the tune of 6-0 in the final
game ever at the Field.

It was the most goals UK has
scored since 1991. The second
half included five goals and five
assists, setting a record in both
cate cries for a half.

“ t feels good to come out and
bury a team like we did today,”
Toby McComas said.

“We've been threatening to do
it all year, and we finally came out,
topped talking about it and did
I ”

i .
UK had 22 shots to Western’s
three, and had twice as many cor-
ner kicks as the opposition, con-
tinuing a trend that has continued
the whole season. UK has 96 for
the season to its opponents’ 41.
The Cats dominated from the
beginning, with UK’s uicker
players often intercepting MU
passes. McComas opened up the
scoring with a free kick at the
35: 16 mark.
As UK lined up, McComas

turned down Sean Mondelli’s
offer to take the shot.

“I told him, ‘Nfo, I think I’rE
oin to take it’.I elt pre 00
Ebougt goin up there andthigting
it,” he sai . “I don’t think too

man people moved.”

he team nursed a fragile 1-0
lead at halftime, eager to prove
something. Less than 10 minutes
into the second half, Mondelli
scored off an assist from Sean
Endicott.

Six minutes later, Mondelli fed
McComas on a no-look, behind-
the-back pass. McComas dribbled
and passed to the front of the goal,
where Endicott tapped the ball in
with his left foot.

Also scorin for UK were Chris
Villamil, Gra am Wilk and Jay
Armstrong. Wilk’s and Arm-
strong’s goals came off of headers
less than seven minutes apart.

“Scott (Sersen) crossed it over,
and I was all alone by the post,”
Wilk said. “I crouched down and
put in the back end.”

Sunday’s ame also helped
Endicott and cComas move up
the record lists. Endicott claimed
second place all-time assists and is
one assist away from tying the sin-

 

gle season mark. He has played in
only 35 games for UK, while the
others have played at least three
seasons.

McComas is now three points
out of second place all-time, and
moving up in the ranks in shot,
goals and assists.

“We didn’t give up today, we
just kept putting it on them,”
Endicott said. “A win like this
really helps your confidence going
into a big game Thursday (against
Indiana).”

Sunday’s game is the kind that
UK Coach Ian Collins said he
loves to see.

we put it afi together. It was by far
the best 90 minutes we’ve played.”

UK played without junior
defender Brien Baltzell. He had
started in the first 13 games of the
season, earning six assists, but
injured his leg last week against
Miami (Ohio). His calf is swollen
and he will be evaluated on a day
to day basis.

Stepping into the starting line-
up was Mondelli. Mondelli is
recovering from an injury himself,
after suffering from a torn quadri-
cep. He showed no ill effects yes-

larger WMU players.

BALI. CONTROL The Cats travel to
Knoxville, Term, Sundayfor a hat-
tle with the Volunteers.

By Dave German
Sufi" Writer

Goodbye to the Cage; hello to
the new soccer stadium.

That is what the women’s soc-
cer team had to be thinking on

_ Friday after losing in overtime 2—1

to Georgia.

The Cats lost the battle for the
No. 2 spot in the Southeastern
Conference Eastern Division in
their final game at the Cage as the
Dawgs (9—4, 4-1 SEC) snapped
UK’s regular-season 10-game
winning streak at home.

“The first 45 minutes went
well, but there were plenty of
times we didn't finish,” Lipka said.
“We did not play well as a team,
there were 11 individuals out

there.”

UK all-time leading scorer Kim
LaBelle added to her record on an
assist from Jennifer McMaster
10:31 into the first half.

Things were going the Cats’
way as they outshot their oppo-
nent 11-4 in the first half. But
when Nikke Ornelaz assisted
Nicole Winfieldon a oal with
1:59 left in the first half, Georgia
tied the game 1—1.

The Cats continued their
offensive attack, outshooting
UGA 9-4 in the second half. but
couldn’t find the net.

1n overtime, UK failed to sus-
tain its offensive pressure. And
with 6:27 left in the first period of
overtime, Georgia‘s Mandy Aiken
assisted ()rnelaz on her second
goal of the game. It gave the

Daw s the lead and the win.

T e game ended with no goals
scored in the second period of
overtime and UK came up short in
a tough one a ainst Georgia.

Despite t e loss, UK goalie
Carrie Kuhnell sparkled between
the posts.

“Carrie really stepped in when
we needed her,” Lipka said.

The Cats can’t afford to dwell
on this loss as they play against
No. 21 Vanderbilt and No.11
Wisconsin in two of their last four
games.

UK, which fell to 9-3—2 overall
and 3—2 in the SEC, will hope to
regain its winning edge in the new
soccer facility.

But for now, they can only say
goodbye to their “Old Kentucky
Home,” the Cage.

LS U unloads on PVildeats; loss

ensures another losing campaign

By Rob Herbsl

Assistant Sports Editor

BATON ROUGE, La. —
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s official.

The UK football teatn will not
be going to a bowl game this year.

What made it o ficial was a 41-
14 drubbing at the hands of LSU
Saturday night at Tiger Stadium.

The loss was UK’s sixth of the
season, thus preventing them
from having a winning season.

There may have been a dozen
or so believers who thought that
UK (1—6 overall, 0—4 in the South-
eastern Conference) could some—
how muster enough to win five
straight ames, including the one
in “Deatfi Valley.”

Those ho es may have been
dashed as early as the first posses—
sion of the game.

The Tigers (5-1, 3-1) started
the game by marching on a profi-
cient, ei ht-play, 84-yard scoring
drive w iich took all of about
three—and—a-halfminutes.

Kevin Faulk’s 23—yard scamper
to the end zone capped the drive.

Faulk would finish with 138
yards on 21 carries against the
Cats.

Well, even after the first drive,
there may have been a few UK
believers.

But after a UK punt, LSU
decided to perform an equally effi-
cient drive as their first to take a
two touchdown lead on the Cats.

“You receive the kickoff, score,
and then go up I-l-(l, that could
have an itnpact on your opponent
when you’re favored by a lot of
points,” said ISU Coach (iert'y
DiNardo, who apparently had lit—
tle sympathy for a UK team that
will be hosting a bowl party in
Lexington, and not in some sun—

drenched locale.
But after the second touch-
down, it was quick to see that UK
would not be heading to New
Orleans for the holidays. Or
Orlando Or Tampa. Or even
Shreveport, La. for that matter.
For UK fans, preparing .

UK did have opportunities to
put more points on the board.

Early in the third quarter and
already down 27-0, the Cats start—
ed possession on their own 10-
yard line. Not ood for a team
that had a totaFof 83 first-half
yards.

But thanks to a fourth-down
personal foul on the Tigers and a
52—yard pass to Chad Spencer,
UK found itself with first-and-

 

to make a trip with some
bowl—bound Cats, Shreve—
Eort and the Poulan Weed—

ater Independence Bowl
would look like a tropical
resort.

The final piece of evi-
dence that UK need not

book any hotel reservations DINardo

for the holidays came at the
end of the half.

Already down 17-0, LSU
decided to try a 54—yard field oal.

Needless to say, Wade Ricfiey’s
field goal was dead on. It tied LSU
record for the longest field goal.

Who knows, maybe the
Cats could find some way
to
