UK continuing
to accept pledges

for United Way

 

By Dale Greer
Executive Editor

 

UK's United Way campaign offi-
cially ended Nov. 24. but orgzmil-
ers will continue accepting pledges
through the end of the year iii an at-
tempt to close the $81,000 gap be-
tween actual pledges and the
drive‘s goal.

About $379,000 of the 3460.000
target has been raised so far. mark-
itig the first time since 1082 that
UK has failed to reach its goal. It
also is the first titne in at least 12
years that University pledges have
not exceeded those of the previous
year.

Susan Byars. co-chairwoiiian of
the campaign. said UK officials ex-
pected this year‘s effort to be diffi—
cult because of the recession mid
dropped the 1992-03 goal Irelow
last year‘s target before fund-
raising even started.

“We went into the campaign
ktiowirig it was goitig to be a tough
year. and so by setting (the goal)
back. we tliotiglit we riiiglit be get-
titig into reasonable territory."
Byars said.

“We didn‘t reali/e it was going to
be as difficult as it was."

IIK's drive is not the only local
campaign that failed to meet it’s
goal. (it the 25 campaigns that col-
lected money for United Way of the
Bluegrass. only four — Lexinark

facturing USA. Inc, International

their targets.

As a result. United Way of the
Bluegrass fell 8 percent short of its
$6,397,524 goal. To make up the
shortfall. about $500,000 will have
to be trimmed frorii the operating
budgets of the IX‘) social service

Despite high attendance expecta-
tions. only about 20 individuals par-
ticipated in a nationally broadcast
teleconference on AIDS yesterday

Organizers hoped the teleconfer-

sentation frorn the 1.700 local busi-
nesses that were notified of the pro-
gram.

Sponsored by the American Red
Cross. along with the Centers for
Disease Control. the UK Center for
Prevention Research. the Kentucky
Small Business Development (‘en-
ter and the Lexington (‘hamber of
Commerce. the teleconference
marked the beginning of a major in-
itiative in the continuing fight
against HIV infection and Acquired
Immune Deficiency Syndrome.

software that allows you to exchange information with computers

computer you can buy. And the advantages of Macintosh don't end
when school does — the majority of Fortune 1000 companies now use
Macintosh computers? So ask your Apple Campus Reseller to help you
choose which Macintosh to put at the top of your holiday gift list.

Macintosh. It’s more than a present, it’s a future.

Two different teams showed up
for the UK Lady KaLs last night as
they posted a 79-44 victory over
Marshall in the 1992 season open-
er.
The Lady Kats were forced to
abandon a long-range attack. which
netted only 2-of-8 three-pointers in
the first half. and battled it out on
the inside with the Thundering
Herd. as UK struggled early in the
game.

“As far as the first half. we can
never play a half like that again zuid
expect to win." senior Jocelyn
Mills said.

“Your defense creates so many
things for you. and we weren‘t
playing very aggressively. We were
giving them too many uncontested

said.

But in the second half. the Lady
Kats poured in 50 points to run
away from the Herd.

The first half provided the only
back-and-forth action as U K‘s early
6-2 lead quickly was erased with a
strong push from Marshall senior
and Athouthem Conference for-
ward Tracy Krucgcr. who took ad-
vantage of the early Lady Kat tuni-
overs and scored six straight points
to give Marshall an 8-6 lead.

UK‘s tough detense returned and
put the Marshall offense on hold,
which allowed the Lady Kats to
slowly regain the lead.

poian in the first half and led the
Lady Kats with 15, made her pres-

out to a 15-8 lead.

Marshall would not bow out yet,
as UK‘s seven first-half tunlovers
gave Marshall opportunities to stay
close for most of the first half.

llK's defense was able to create
problems in the first half, causing
14 Marshall tumovers, but Mar-
shall was able to capitalize on UK's
mistakes and played even for the
first half.

The 20-29 halftime score was the
result of the sloppy play on the pan
of both squads. Fanning said that
uneven play caused the lady Kats
to get off their rhythm in the sec-
ond half.

Marshall shot 50 percent from

Tracy Kruegcr tossed in eight

their cues. Not that rehearsals
haven‘t been productive. l’itino
said.

"The practices have been great -
intense. hardworking.“

It‘s just that he said this particu-
lar opening night opponent could
provide a more dramatic spectacle
than patrons may suspect. largely
because of the leading man. 6-foot-
8 senior Bill lidwards.

“He‘s a great athlete. lle‘s ex—
tremely quick." l’itino said. “He's a
legitimate (NBA) first-round pros—
pect."

The 6-6 small forward said he‘s
been impressed with what he's seen
of his antagonist on film.

He said lidwards was a “tremen—
dous lcaper" who can "shoot the
three. hit the boards. He has an all-
around (game i.“

Rhodes said he has been instruct-
ed to ptit more feeling into his de-

fensive performance unless he
wiuits a major supporting role to
turn into a cameo.

"(‘oach has been down on my
dctensc a little bit." he said. The
freshman said he‘ll be motivated
tonight because “1 take pride in my
defense."

The other likely NBA pick in tr»
night's show —— UK’s Jamal Mash-
burn — has already proven himself
ready for prime time. He said UK
must be wary of troupes looking to
wow the critiCs on opening night.

Mashbum said, “there are a lot of
teams that can sneak tip on you."

The innior even said a twinge of
stage fright can even be healthy.
“You're always nervous when you
step on the floor. That‘s when you
play your best basketball."

l’itino also confessed to a tickle
of opening—night antsiness — be-
cause as any director knows, if the
show llops. the director gets the
blame.

"1 sec my family‘s bread on the
table." he said. “It could disappear
if we don't win."

Defensive coach
‘stepping down’

 

EyJoim Kelly
Sports Editor

Proclaiming that UK needed a
new chemistry between its de-
fensive coordinator and the de-
fensive unit, UK football coach
Bill Curry announced yesterday
that his longtime assistant Larry
New was “stepping down."

“1 told my wife I'd rather go
through anything than this press
conference today. it is not diffi-
cult to remove an employee
when they haven‘t been diligent.
enthusiastic and completely loy-

bers of his staff were leaving but
left a loophole by adding "unless
the coach himself chooses to
leave or do something else."

New did not attend yesterday’s
press luncheon.

New, 48, was Curry‘s defen-
sive line coach for three seasons
at Alabama. He has been in col-
lege football as a coach for 17
years. starting at Wheaton Col-
lege in 1965. He coached at Mis-
souri. Arkansas and South Caro-
lina before joining Curry at
Guirg‘ia 'l‘ech as an assistant
coach in 1982.

 

 

 

al.” Cuny Curry
said. said that
“That's New would
not hard. 1n not stay in
fact, )iOU'l‘e . . coaching
doing the ’£ ‘ right new
guy a favor but was of-
to get into fared an-
something other posio
else. tion within
"When the program
tslomebodly and that the
as one offer stands.
everything NEW CURRY “Larry will
within their WW0! and has always have a job with us if he

knocked himself out and gone
the second mile (and) it just
doesn’t work out. then that’s in-
credibly difficult. I iovc‘ Larry
New like a brother."

Ctm'y said that he and New,
who had served as UK’s defen-
sive coordinator since the Curry
arrived in 1990. made the deci-
sion together and that both
agreed that this year’s defensive
performance was “iirtaccepta~
hie.” .

UK‘s defense allowed 25.5
points per game. UK opponents
rushed for an average of 206.7
yards per game and threw for
175.1 each game.

Though Curry was quick to
acknowledge that the Cats im-
proved over last season statisti-
cally, he said something was
lacking.

"There did not seem to be the
type of chemistry that you need
to have to built a great defense."
Curry said. “We both saw that
as the. season wore down."

Curry also added that key in-
juries - including losing senior
linebacker Reggie Smith, sopho-
more nose guard Damon Betz,
sophomore linebacker James
Simpson, junior bandit Duce
Willams and sophomore comer-
back Steven Hall for the season
~—~ didn’t help matters.

“Our defense changed drasti-
cally,” Curry said.

Specalation grew as the sea-
son waned. and in the days fol-
lowing UK‘s season—ending loss
to Tennessee, that a staff shake—
up was forthcoming.

“We talked about it down the
stretch.” Curry said. “We were
trying so hard to get the job
dime."

In addition to chemistry, Cur-
ry said he was interested in
changing the defensive strategy
as a whole.
