After Saturday night's season-ending
rock ’n' roll rout over Aubum. UK bas-
ketball players had only one thing on
their mind — partying.

Party for the victory over Auburn. Par-
ty for departing seniors Reggie Hanson
and Johnathon Davis.

Party for a Southeastern Conference
No. 1 ranking and record. Party like the
champions that 24.000-plus people con-
firmed after the game.

 

UK Wildcats' basketball coach Rick Pitino holds up the net in Rupp Arena Saturday after UK's 114-93 victory over Au-
burn. With the win, UK clinched the best record in the SEC. The celebration continues tomorrow with a parade at 3 pm.

Wildcats’ rout begins SEC party

“We’re the best team in the SEC.” Jeff
Brassow said after the 114-93 victory
over Auburn.

“We have the best record and that
speaks for itself. We don't care what the
SEC says. we're the champs.”

Where to from here?

“We’re going out. I'm not sure where.
and I probably won‘t remember much to-
morrow." Brassow said just before the
postgarne blowout at the Hyatt Regency
Saturday night.

Brassow might not have remembered
much of the postgatne party when he

initely remember the party that was UK’s
1990—91 basketball season.

The numbers speak for themselves. 22—
6 Overall, two of those losses coming on
the road at Indiana and North Carolina.
14-4 in the SEC. Simply put. no other
SEC team could post or boast of such
numbers.

But this party was well-earned and
well-planned by UK coach Rick Pitino.

Iraq releases
10 prisoners,
agrees to truce

Assoclated Press

United Nations —— Iraqi Ambassador Abdul Amir aI-Anbari said yesterday that 10 for-
eign prisoners of war have been released, including six Americans.

He said one of those released was a young woman.Al-Anbari made the comment to re-
poners who questioned him as he entered a Security Council meeting that was to consider
relaxing the embargo on food and humanitarian aid to Iraq.

He saidlraq had “already, I believe, released 10 POW‘s as a gesture of goodwill. Six of
them are American citizens. including one of them the young lady that was captured a few
days ago."

Baghdad Radio announced that Iraq accepted a UN. Security Council resolution passed
Saturday that laid the framework for a permanent cease—fire. Allied and Iraqi military lead-
ers, meanwhile, meeting in the southern Iraqi town of Safwan. agreed on details of the
truce.

The radio, monitored in Nicosia. Cyprus, quoted a letter sent by Foreign Minister Tariq
Aziz to the United Nations saying that Baghdad had accepted Resolution 686. passed on a
vote of 11-1 with three abstentions. It was opposed by Cuba.

“We hope that the UN. Security Council will deal with our meeting of these obligations,
which we will do sincerely and as soon as possible. objectively and honorably and in keep-
ing with the provisions of international law and the rules of justice and fair play,” the letter
said.

The resolution retains the economic and arms embargo and demands that Baghdad pay
reparations. It also orders Iraq to free war prisoners and captured civilians, return stolen
property. rescind its annexation of Kuwait and identify the location of mines and booby
traps in Kuwait.

Yesterday the UN. Security Council was considering easing the economic embargo to
allow mercy flights of food, medicine and fuel to the war-ravaged country.

Meanwhile, in northern Saudi Arabia, a woman pilot and three other soldiers were killed
when the helicopter she piloted crashed. the U.S. military said last night It was the first re-
ported death of a woman pilot in the Gulf War.

Officials in Saudi Arabia refused to give details on the accident, but the Pentagon con-
firmed that Army Major Marie T. Rossi. 32, of Oradell. NI, piloted the Chinook helicop—

Race for SGA president
pits insider vs. outsiders

By GREGORY A. HALL
Senior Staff Writer

The first round of the Student Govem—
ment Association presidential race is com-
plete. and a clear theme has emerged: Re-
form.

As the March 27-28 elections approach.
this campaign bears similarities to last
year's race. The first round of campaigning
brought out many complaints about the
status quo of student government.

Last year’s campaign between two-term
SGA President Sean Lohman and Dale
Baldwin was plagued by mudslinging and
issue-dodging. Lohman campaigned on
continuity, and Baldwin called for reform.

This campaign seems headed in a similar
direction. All candidates want some reform,
but it appears that this race, too. will be be-
tween SGA insiders and outsiders.

Announcing two weeks ago, Scott Cros-
bie set a reform tone that the other candi-
dates also followed during their announce-
merits.

In his speech, Crosbie said there is “a
highly expressed desire of students for
change in the direction of Student Govem-
ment Association.“

Crosbie comes from outside SGA.

The location of one candidate‘s an-
nouncement summed up the change he
wants within SGA. Lexington Community
College sophomore Keith Clark announced
there Wednesday and made a second an-
nouncement Thursday at LCC's downtown

Finding a schedule book before registra-
tion will no longer be a scavenger hunt
from Patterson Office Tower to the bottom
of backpacks.

Through a service sponsored by the Reg-
istrar's Office and the Computing Center.
students will soon be able to issue a few
commands at any of the Prime computer
terminals on campus and see the summer
and fall schedule of classes and the number
of available seats in any course. said Uni-
versity Registrar Randall Dahl.

Students also can view the information
off campus from home personal computers
by using a modem. "2 device that allows
you to connect to other computers over the
phone line." said Wayne Beech, who de-

signed the new system.

“The format of the data is as close as pos-
sible to the format that appears in the print-
ed schedule book that you're used to seeing
every semester." Beech said. “The only dif-
ference is we have an additional column.
and it tells how many seats are currently
available in a course."

During fall registration - which runs from
March 26 to April 10 - the number of re-
maining course openings will be updated
twice daily. at l2330 pm. and 7:30 pm,
said Director of Registration Lisa Collins.

Collins and Beech emphasize that the
number of available course seats on screen
does not correspond precisely with the actu-
al number of seats.

campus Clark said Wednesday.

Clark served two terms as LCC senator
in SGA, before being removed from the
senate in January for absenteeism. Driving
home the attitude that SGA is unaware of
LCC makes him an SGA outsider.

Even the candidate SGA has given the
most support. College of Education Senator
Christa Collins, listed a number of reforms
for the organization.

Like Lohman last year, Collins repre-
sents inner SGA. But unlike Lohman she is
not emphasmng continutty. She argues that
effective change must come from within.

That argument was in pan vindicated at

——_"T
Hood plans

to afiect
UK football

BOWLING GREEN, Ky.
—— When Damon Hood hits
Shively Field this fall, he
doesn’t plan to waste any time
staking out his territory.

He‘s the kind of guy who
talks straight up. Kentucky‘s
“.Mr Football," and heir ap-
parent to departed tailback Al
Baker, doesn‘t mince words
and he kn0ws what he wants.

Listen:

“I want to be an impact
player as a freshman and have
a productive first year," said
Hood, who also runs track for
his high school. “Coach (Bill)
Curry gave me no promises of
playing time and I wouldn‘t
have gone to a school that did.

“I‘ll do the best I can, if
fans don't think it‘s good
enough then they'll just have
to go on and live with (them-
selves)."

“ . I want everybody to
know that I went to UK for
Damon Hood‘s reasons, not
anyone else‘s. I have to prove
myself all over again, but I've
never been afraid of challeng—
es."

If physical tools and past
performance are any indica-
tor, Hood shouldn't let down
any UK fans.

The Warren Central High
star is big (6-2, 220 pounds)
and fast (45 for 40 yards) and
hm monstrous stats as an All-
State tailback (over 3,500
yards nishing for career).

The jump from the high
school to college level, how-
ever, is perhaps the most un-
predictable change known to
athletes.

Hood, himself, was one of
the most unpredictable re-
cniits. But in the end, Hood
opted for Curry and UK over
Joe Patemo and Penn State.

“I’m glad I've signed, be-
cause I don't get as many
calls or letters as I used to,”
Hood said. “Now that the
pressure is off to sign, I can
get back to the books and do
some catching up after miss-
ing some class because of re-
cruiting visits.

“If I don't make it to the
pros, I want an education to
fall back on.“

Hood, who was perhaps the
state‘s most sought-after re-
cruiting since former UK full-
back Al Baker, says the pres-
sure to stay in state was
enormous.

“I definitely felt a lot of
pressure to stay in state, but
when you let pressure get to
you, that’s when the real pres—
sure starts," said Hood, who is
looking toward a possible ca-
reer in medicine.

Many observers felt it
would be a major challenge
for a perennial also-ran like
UK to sign a mega-talented
player of Hood's stature, but
Hood has his own vision for
UK football.

“Kentucky really is a team
ontherise—ateamofthe
future," said Hood, who also
was a star linebacker for War-
ren Central. “I hit it off imme-
diately with all the players
and coaches. I really felt like
part of the team."

This past season was
thought to have been a down
one for the Cats on the gridi-
ron, but not in Hood's eyes.

"They had a great year con-
sidering they had a first year
head coach and all,” Hood
said.

“When I come up in the
fall, all I want is a chance to
show my stuff. UK only
signed one mnning back
(Tates Creek‘s Dan Hicks), so
I feel I can come in and play
right off."

SPORTS MONDAY
No. 1: Cats storm Auburn to ‘Win’ SEC

Continued from page 1

than any team I have ever
coached,” Pitino said. Now we
can go beyond the SEC champion-
ship and play for real.”

The action on the court Saturday
night was a sideshow.

Leading scorers and play-by-play
accounts of the action are meaning-
less.

UK thoroughly beat Auburn.

The Tigers never had a chance.
The Cats threw three rotations at
them — with each cog of the rota-
tion whipping a sorry first-string
Auburn squad.

The Tigers didn‘t stick around to
watch the UK players cut down the
nets in firont of 24,000-plus fans.
The Tigers didn’t take too much no-
tice of a UK student sign reading,
“Kiss My Asterisk!”

They didn't see the UK players
receive awards of all kinds. The Ti-
gers weren't the toast of a small city
Saturday night. The Cats were.

The Cats also will be the center-
piece of a parade/bash Tuesday.
CM. Newton is busting out Lexing-
ton’s fire engines, UK‘s pep band
and 14 UK celebrities. The oarade
could very well develop into the
most unified and rousing party Lex-
ington has ever seen.

“A lot of dreams don't come
true," a smiling Hanson said, “but
this one did."

While most senior nights are a
time of tears and sentimental words,
last night was a departure from that
tradition.

Hanson was cool throughout the
evening, off the court. It was on the
court that the Hanson front crum-
bled. He missed seven of his 10
shots with two turnaround jump-
hook air balls.

What was missing from Hanson's
game — besides the sound of nets
swishing —— were the status quo
tears and big words that often come
with a last game.

Davis also was too cool for
school, even though he‘ll spend the
next three years there. Davis is plan-

ning to attend law school.

The reason for the strong senior
composure, “Once you're a Cat
you'll always be a Cat."

The words are Hanson's, and
they say a lot about what Pitino is
building at UK.

His business moves have gotten
UK back in the money, so to speak.
He's brought past UK tradition and
present cutting basketball action to-
gether — his plan has worked. UK
basketball public relations are peak-
ing. It seems that every one of Piti-
no’s carefully calculated words
have produced its desired effect.

Either Pitino is brilliant or Ken-
tucky is chock full of bleary-eyed
basketball junkies. Or both.

“He's the best," Hanson said.

In another killer move, Pitino has
named an award after Hanson: “The
Reggie Hanson Sacrifice Award."
Pitino isn’t burning bridges, he's
building them. And without toll
booths.

Those bridges will be traveled by
some newcomers next year. Andre
Riddick, Aminu Timberlake, Chris
Harrison, Dale Brown and future
“Mr. Playmaker“ Travis Ford will
all stride into UK basketball next
season.

“The future looks bright," All-
SEC freshman Jamal Mashbum
said.

Will Mashbum‘s role expand?

“I'll step in and do what needs to
be done,” Mash said with his trade-
mark smooth and soft confidence.

And with every tick of Saturday
night‘s game clock, dark cloud after
another broke. The Cats no longer
are on probation.

The Cats will almost assuredly
get a chance to break out in the
NCAA tournament next season, a
tournament that lacks Jerry Tarkani-
an’s UNLV NBA-caliber team.

“I have to say I feel a little bit
lighter." said Deron Feldhaus, one
of next year‘s team captains.

Feldhaus, who won the Hanson
Award, will share team-captain du-
ties with fellow soon-to-be seniors
John Pelphrey, Sean Woods and Ri-

chie Partner.

This year‘s Senior of the Year,
however. is ready to relax. But not
for long.

Hanson has well-founded dreams
of playing in the NBA, and he says
he’s ready to work for it.

“I'm going to take a couple of
weeks off," Hanson said. “Then I’m
going to hit the weights and try to
stay in shape.

“I know a lot of people don't feel
like my chances of playing pro ball
are all that great, but I'm going to
give it all I got.”

And if Hanson’s work ethic, de-
fensive dominance and overall drive
at UK extend into this off-season,
his back will be draped with an
NBA jersey.

Just as a championship net draped
his neck Saturday night.

There was plenty of hoopla going
on at Rupp Arena Saturday night,
including the awards ceremony.

As the players sat back, cracking
up and joking around, Pitino handed
out silver platters to the superla-

gave a little something back to the
UK basketball program in the Cats'
114-93 win over Auburn on Satur-
day.

Five-points (one point shy of his
career high), four rebounds, four
blocked shots — in 13 minutes of
play.

Not bad for a guy who ts COI'ISId-
cred more of a team GPA booster
than a shot swatter. But last night he
jumped through the paper hoop and
bid farewell to a loyal UK crowd.

“I’ve had so many experiences
here, I‘m so glad to leave on a
high," Davis said.

Ijust wanted to help us earn
the shins (reading “#1 SEC Basket-
ball — Back on Top") we‘re wear-
ing."

Davis has opted for a graduation
ceremony instead of fullfilling hlS
final year of eligibility with the UK
basketball team.

Davis came to Kentucky from
Pensacola, Fla., four years ago dur-
ing the Eddie Sutton era.

He will be most remembered as
one of just two players who stuck
with the UK basketball ship when it
got hammered with probation.

Davis, who played very little real
game time during his tenure at UK.
got his biggest kicks in the annual
Blue-White intra-squad scrimmage
games.

games, you can mistake Jonathon

Din/is tor Michael Jordan." I K

"Reggie .iiid .lohn plated .tflilllhl

Feltlhaus said. “He worked hard in
practice, he made Reggie a better
player."

Around the UK locker room it‘s
common to find DaVis going over
his class notes, instead of UK LOilCh
Rick Piuno's playbook. This kind
of dedication to the books makes
him a good role model to the young-
er players on the team.

“He's very intelligent and he's .i
good athlete," UK freshman Jamal-
Mashhurn said.

“He brings his books into the
locker room, he even studies them
during practice."

His devotion to both sports and
academia was epitomized earlier
this season when he was faced Wllh
two tough opponents on the same
day ~— a basketball game versus
Notre Dame and the Law School
Admissions Test.

UK men’s tennis gears up for Cavs in crucial week

' ‘- ayoarvsnenown

3 sum was:

As the Southeastem Conference
. season gaim momentum, the men's
'temistearnplayshosttothree
lunches this week at the Hilary J.
‘ BooneTennis Center.

, Today, the No. 14 Cats take on
f the University of Virginia Cava-
~ liers. On Tuesday UK entertains
' Western Kentucky University, and
Wednesday's match brings in Mid-
dle Tenneswe State University.

“It's a big week for us,” coach
Dennis Emery said. “We will try to
* take these matches to prepare for
the big matches in California."

Next week the Cats will make the
western swing of their season —-
through California — where they
will tangle with tennis powerhouses
Stanford University, University of
California, Pepperdine University
and University of Califomia-Irvine.

Heading into today's match, the
Cats have an 8-3 record with big
wins over University of South Caro-

lina, Clemson University, Universi-
ty of Arizona and Texas Christian
University. Their only losses have
come against No. 4 University of
Southem California, No. 5 Univer-
sity of Tennessee and No. 7 Univer-
sity of Califomia-Berkley.

The team hopes this week‘s
matches will help them train and
prepare for the SEC season and the
season-ending NCAA Champion-
ships.

“We are playing real well all-
around. particularly the middle of
the line-up,” Emery said. “Our big
strength though, is our doubles."
Senior Ian Skidmore and junior
John Yancey are ranked 7th nation-
ally in doubles and have a 6-1
record atNo. l for the Cats.

Emery said juniors Andy Potter
and Scott Hulse have been a real
force for the success of the team.
“Andy's been playing extremely
well and Scott is our most consis-
tent player."

Potter said these three matches
are important for the team. “We

 

can’t look put this week's matches.
We have got to stay focused and
keep our momentum going,” he
said. “We are looking forward to
the California trip, and these match-
es will help us to get ready.”

A successful week will also be
impressive because the new colle-
giate rankings come out March 12.
With the wins over No. 6 South
Carolina and No. 8 TCU. and no
losses to teams ranked lower, the
Cats expect to move up from 14th
to between eight and 10.

Gaining confidence and momen-
tum is vital as the Cats gear up for
the rest of the season. “In '88 and
'89 we were second, but last year
we were ninth,” Emery said. “It
wasn't because of a talent gap. but
our schedule was a little tough."

Last year the Cats faced five Top
20 teams on the road. All of those
teams were from the SEC. This year
the team only has two of those
matches on the road.

Today’s match begins at 2 pm. at
the Boone Tennis Center.

Men's tennis coach Dennis Em-
ery described junior Scott Hulse as
the “cement" of the UK tennis team
this year —- partly because of his
great improvement but mostly due

to his work ethic and driving will to
compete and win.

“He always works very hard,”
Emery said. “Scott is consistent and
he doesn’t get out of control.”

Hulse, from Chicago, is tough on
his tennis opponents, but he is also
tough on himself. “l have very high
