The thousands of small

be a problem. said Jerry Hart. a

has gathered a learn of sis to
go out at dusk four to five
nights per week to scare the

birds oft cariipiis.

“They try to land around

. They like foliage. they

The safest and most elfee

tive way to mow the birds is
to use a special handgun. simi<

Major road block

Florida stands in the way of Cats' SEC Championship hopes

By Metz Camfiold

mcfifield®Wkernel.éom

Nov. 10. 1990.

That was the last time the UK vol-
leyball team 'beat the Florida Gators.
At the time UK freshman middle
blocker Becky Pavan was only six
months old and freshman middle
blocker Gretchen Giesler wasn't even
born.

Since that infamous date. the
Gators have strung out an improbable
38-game winning streak over the Cats.
All of that could come to a halt on
Sunday though. as the Cats (23-4. 14—
2 Southeastern Conference) take on
Florida with a shot at the SEC cham-
pionship on the line.

Florida extended its streak over
the Cats to 38 on Oct. 10. in a five-set
match that junior setter Sarah Rumely

said wasn‘t nearly the best UK could
play. Despite the fact it was only the
second time the Cats had taken the
Gators to five sets since the I‘M)
match. don‘t tell UK‘s players about
close calls.

"There are no moral victories."
Rumely said. "We have to get that ‘W"
in order to be happy: and we‘re not go-
ing to be happy unless we win the rest
of our games this year."

The Gators lost a surprising match
a few weeks later to Georgia. but after
the Cats' loss to Ole Miss last week—
end. they still find themselves one
game back of the Gators. With only
four games remaining on the slate for
UK. the match against Florida this
weekend will be one of UK’s last op—
portunities to take down the champs.
And while everyone wasn‘t willing to
openly express their desire to beat

Florida. the thought of taking them
down brought a few smiles.

"We're heating Florida." senior
middle blocker Queen Nzenwa said.
“if we beat them that also puts us in
the running to be at the top in the SEC
this year Yes. it‘s more than just an»
other game."

The leader of the Gators success
has been Mary Wise. a former associ~
ate head coach at UK from 1986-
1990. Those five years also happen to
be some of UK‘s most successful sea.
sons in program history.

At Florida. Wise has established a
perennial powerhouse. More signifi—
cant to UK is the fact that Florida yet
again stands in the path of the Cats in
their quest to win their first SEC
championship since 1988.

BASKETBALL

Continued from {rage 3

While (iillispie is worv
ried about falling into the trap
of playing the quick—shot of~
fense that \‘MI wants them
to. he said he doesn‘t mind
playing as last as possible. In
fact. he is encouraging it _.
that is.11s long as during the
halfcourt sets. Patterson' gets
the ball III the post.

“I want 11s to play as
fast as possible. But that dcv
termines on how well we
shoot and handle the ball."
(iilhspie said. “That's not to
say we‘re going to cut
Patrick out ot the offense
because he can play last.
However. in our halt—court
sets we will be looking for
him."

While there is specula-
tion of who will start and

who wrll see playing time at
the point guard position —
currently iunior Michael
Porter leads the way -
(iillispie said he isn‘t wor—
ried. He said he has seen
good things in Porter. De—
Andre laggins 11nd Kevin
Galloway.

Gilltspie said he is most
excited about having a deep
team and not having to worry
about players staying on the
floor for an unusual amount
of minutes each game.

"We have I9 players on
the team. and I don‘t know
who is going to play Fri-
day." (iillispie said. “I‘m
happy wrth everyone right
now and the situation will
play itself out. No one is go
ing to have to play the min—
utes Ramel Bradley and
Patrick did last season. That
will benefit us. because I
believe we have a fairly

 

deep team."

ics than the 30-»plus games
that will be played on the
hardwood.

I know it‘s a bold procla~
mation in the place that intro~
duced the world to Mashbum.
Rupp and Riley. And who
could ever forget Bow ie‘.‘
Well. maybe scratch Bowie.

But in the building
process that UK‘s football
program is in. it‘s important
to keep moving forward.
There‘s no national prestige
to carry UK football follow—
ing a hard year. There are no
stories equivalent to those of
Rupp‘s Runts in UK football.
nor are seven national cham—
pionship banners hanging
from Commonwealth Stadi~
um's rafters.

But UK football wouid
love to be there one day. It's
the progression pushed by
every athletic director in 11
major conference. Not neces-
sarily to win a national
championship every year. but
to contend 11nd have dynasty
meet opportunity occasional—
ly.

In the coming weeks.
there is no room to mow
backward, Brooks has said
all year long the (tits have
pros en they can compete in
the Southeastern Conference.
They have a chance to do
yiust that with wins over \‘arr
derbilt on Saturday and Ten—
nessee on Nov. 29. Two wins
would bring them to 1m even
4—4 in conference play.

When the final play is
made this season. a lot of
things Will be said. No one
knew how victorious or how
hideous the (‘ats would be
this year. But after looking
back over the last weeks. UK
football has shown that even
wnh missing pieces it could
find ways to give fits to the
SEC powers. What mattered
weeks ago was 11 UK team
that played the now—No. |
team in the nation time to
the final gun. A team that
could have finally beat Steve
Spurrier. A team that almost
downed Georgia.

What is left is 11 team in
the shadows that can still ac-
complish a feat that has nev—
er happened at [K

These are special times.
indeed.
