But none of that matters now. Now is the time. Alter weeks
of training. the moment has finally come. The bell rings.

Lancaster. standing (i-footQ. w eighing Just under l7ti
pounds. dances out from the wooden chair in his corner. llecoy-
crs his face with his foitress of lists. peering oy er his gloyes just
enough to see his opponent. (iriffin Barron of Delta Tau Delta.

Barron, a good three inches shorter than Lancaster. has his
left arm dropped slightly below his neck. his right arm cocked
and ready to fire. Compared to the previous six fights. the two
wait what seems like minutes. Barron bounces from toe to toe.
Lzmcaster waits patiently to see what Barron‘s plan is. what moy e
he makes.

And then it happens. Barron blasts a right hook and connects
with Lancaster‘s face.

Just breathe. ()Iit' f’l‘t tit/i Hi. our hi't'tll’l our. hycvtocusr'd on

rug. Arid don 'Iforecr II' Ill’t‘ilI/lt‘.

Lancaster sits at a desk at the WT Young Library. it‘s less
than 2-1 hours iititil his big boxing debut. But Lancaster has a
take—home eyam to complete.

it is due the out day. but all he can tlirnk about is the fight.

“1 am completely nervous." Lancaster says. “l have no idea
what to expect."

Lancaster bobs his head to his iPod. His eyes are fixed on his
computer. his mind on Thursday night‘s fight. Lancaster finishes
his exam at Exit) am. on Thursday.

"I don‘t know how it turned out." Lancaster say s of the exam.

He goes home and does what any time fighter does the night
before a fight. He sleeps. Well. all \IX hours of it any way. He gets
up at 8:30 a.ni.. goes to his classes and then heads to work at
Commonwealth Stadium. where he sery es as a graphic designer
for UK Athletics. ,

He doesn't talk to taiy'body at work. His mind. focus and at
tention hasn’t deterred from what lies ahead. Lancaster has had
battles before he played football. basketball and baseball at
Marion (‘ounty High School (Kyi but he's iieyer done any,
thitig like this.

“.l'ye played in front of fans before. but l‘y'e never played an
individual sport in lront of so niai y fans. so the amount of pres—
sure is going to be built up.” Lancaster says.

Lancaster got the idea to box after w atchiiig a YouTube \ ideo
of his hometown friend .losh Buck in last year's Fight Night. The
yideo. titled “You got knocked the 'Buck' out'" features Buck
knocking out another boyer

"The buildup around town. people talking about that yideo
was so incredible it made me want to try out and see how it
goes." Lancaster say s.

So when Lancaster was asked to boy about a month ago. he
jumped at the chance He started training about three weeks ago
With five other boxers from SALE. They worked on stances and
basic punches in the beginning. then started hitting a punching
bag and shadow boyiiig (looking at a mirror and boxing).

The S »\E boscrs is ho did it last year offer Lancaster different
techniques and ads rte. but thc\ warn lirrn that nothing can pref
pare you for that first hit

"They said you have no idea what to think]~ Lancaster says.
“You just take a deep breath. the bell rings and then you go“

Lancaster gets off work and heads to the SAE houst . The six
SAEs listen to music to get pumped up and then head to "fatten
salls. It‘s almost time to go.

Just bll’tillll’ ()ru‘ [myrrh in. our lint/ll; our. Sirl_i‘_/m'li.u'i/ (m
the fight. Don‘t worry H'lllll t'vr'ri/n ab i'lyc I.‘s (It mg. Ker/t l‘l\lltl/A
iii/1g. Slay tit/iii. \ml don't turner Io fin ill/ll'.

Lancaster sits iii a metal chair .is sortie of his traternity broth
ers start getting wrapped up. Some of them pimp rope. others
laugh. All of them watch as students clad in their fraternity and
sorority letters walk past a white tent and into the main arena.

Gathered in a dingy. musty corner of 'l‘attersalls. Lancaster
and his fraternity brothers cant see the ring from where they ’re
sitting. But as echoes from rowdy students bounce down a slip-
pery hallway. the fighters all know it‘s alriiost time.

Lancaster. clad in a black hooded sweatshirt and gray sweat-
pants. .stares straight ahead tapping his feet. He can‘t stop him »
ing.

"Now that I‘m here and I know what I‘m going to be fighting
in. I'm completely nervous." Lancaster says. “l'ye never been
this neryous in my life."

His biggest fear is what lies just 50 feet up the poorly lit hall-
way. it‘s a cramped. muggy arena filled with stifling heat and his
biggest critics ,. his peers. Lancaster doesn‘t want to eat cam-as
in front of them.

“My biggest fear is getting knocked out.” Lancaster says. “If
that happens I hope I'm lust able to get up "

But his biggest problem right now is his mustache. Three
weeks ago. he and his tratemity brothers were groking about
growrng them out for intimidation. Lancaster followed through.

He grew a mustache and dyed it black two days earlier. But it
appears it was all for nothing. He gets word that he has to shave
it off because it causes friction on his face. and can cause the skin
to break.

Reluctantly. Lancaster gets a razor and shaves it off. He 's not
the only one, Guys pour into the bathroom one after another
shaving their facial hair off. It‘s only after he shaves every hair
off his face that he‘s told he only needed to shave around his chin
and beard line. What took him three weeks to grow is gone in a
matter of three minutes.

“That‘s going to be motivation for sure." Lancaster says.
