An energetic transition

In her third year, Coach Mickie DeMoss places her stamp on UK women's hoops

By Chris Delotell

Aggressive. Tough-mind-
ed. Physical. Competitive. Re-
lentless.

Those are the words UK
women’s basketball coach
Mickie DeMoss uses to de-
scribe her team. They are the
qualities she has attempted to
instill in her players and the
program as she enters her
third year at the helm. The
former 18-year Tennessee as-
sistant sees those traits as a
reflection of herself.

“I think they describe
me,“ DeMoss said. “You tend
to coach what your personali-
ty is; what you like to see. I
can't imagine coaching a
team that is soft. I like high
energy and aggression."

DeMoss has exhibited
plenty of energy and aggres-
sion in her first two years re-
building a program that had
suffered through four consec-
utive losing seasons prior to
last year. She admits that she
was too forceful when she
took over in 2003. as her hard-
charging style was excessive
for some players who had
been recruited by the previ-
ous coaching staff.

“That was one

last year. DeMoss knows
there are many unanswered
questions heading into the
season.

“We're really young." she
said. “Nine of our 13 players
are freshmen or sophomores,
so it will be a process. We just
brought in our second re-
cruiting class. We'll be more
athletic and have more team
speed and quickness.”

DeMoss‘ players are not
concerned with the young
roster. They feel their youth
can be a positive.

“We’re young. but we‘re
also hungry.“ said sophomore
guard Chante‘ Bowman.
“That means we‘re going to
play hard all the time because
we want to win so badly"

Sophomore center Sarah
Elliott believes the team‘s
chemistry will offset any
problems presented by a lack
of experience.

"We just love being a part
of this team.“ she said.
“We're so young. We know
that there‘s so much we can
do together in the next couple
of years. We can be really
good."

The emphasis on youth
has been a major part of
DeMoss‘ rebuilding effort.

Both of her recruit-

nessee and had nev- '

er experienced any
extended period of

losing. She made 13 trips to
the Final Four and won six
national championships with
the Vols. When she was hired.
DeMoss vowed to bring a win-
ning mentality to the UK pro-
gram. That proved easier said
than done.

“I could tell our players
what it's like to win and tell
them and tell them. but until
they experienced it. it was
harder for them to under-
stand." she said.

That experience came last
year. as the Wildcats finished
18-16 and advanced to the
semifinals of the National In-
vitation Tournament. It was
the program‘s first winning
season since 1999-2000 and
first postseason appearance
since the 1998-1999 NCAA
Tournament.

Last season‘s strong finish
has led to high expectations
for this year’s team. but there
are also some holes to fill.

The Cats lost leading scor-
er Sara Potts to graduation.
and sophomore point guard
Angela Phillips left the team
over the summer. Potts and
Phillips were the only two
players to start all 34 games

basketball coach

They‘re the ones
out there."

DeMoss has
been a major attraction for
some of the best high school
talent in the country. Many of
the players she has recruited
agree that DeMoss is the top
reason they chose Kentucky.

“Her drive and determi
nation got me." Bowman
said. “She's so competitive
and I wanted to be a part of
that."

Elliott agreed.

“[DeMoss] sold coming to
UK for me.“ she said. “To be a
part of a team that is build-
ing a foundation for the pro-
gram is great. She's a winner
and she sells herself. She
makes you want to be a win-
ner with her."

While there is an empha~
sis on getting athletically gift-
ed players to choose UK.
DeMoss and her staff also
want players who will handle
the academic rigors of col.
lege life. Since her arrival at
UK. all nine of DeMoss' se<
niors have graduated from
the university.

“Academics is one of our
focal points." DeMoss said.
“Wz're going to give them
every resource. That‘s what
they're here for to get a de-
gree. I want our players to

succeed at both academics
and athletics."

While DeMoss knows her
main responsibility is to
coach basketball. she feels
that her role extends beyond
the court and into the lives of
her players.

“As a team, we talk a lot
about life skills. about what it
means to be responsible. re-
spectful and honest. We talk
about character and about
their lives when they leave
Kentucky."

In the immediate future.
however. DeMoss’ main con-
cern is the upcoming season.
The coach will depend heavi-
ly on three members of her
sophomore class. Elliott. Bow-
man and guard Samantha
Mahoney all saw significant
minutes and starting time as
true freshmen last season.

"They stepped in. did a
great job and grew up quick-
ly." DeMoss said. “I can just
see the growth of those three
young women. We're looking
for big things out of them."

The sophomore class feels
the heavy amount of playing
time they received last year
will help this season.

"Our experience will real-
ly help the team." Mahoney
said. “For us to get as much
playing time as we did last
year was important."

DeMoss noted that her
young team is more focused

‘ on dayeto—day improvement

than long-term goals.
“Everyday we‘re working
to get better." she said. “We‘re
working to be more competi-
tive and mentally tougher."
The emphasis on daily im-

provement has not stopped
the players from setting high
goals for the season.

“We got to the WNIT last
year. so we want to step it up
to the next level." Bowman
said. "We want to go to the
NCAA Tournament."

Regardless of her team‘s
performance. DeMoss be~
lieves in a constant daily
work ethic. and demands it
out her players. her coaches
and herself.

“Every single day you
come in and you want to do
what it takes to make the pro-
gram a little better than it
was yesterday." she said. “So
you are constantly evaluating
and analyzing everything you
do."

This approach has won
over players. recruits and
fans alike. The team is plac‘
ing full faith in their coach to
give them the tools necessary
for the program to make a
leap to the next level.

“She's a winner." Bow-
man said. “And she’s got what
it takes to lead us to a cham-
pionship."

DeMoss has put the pieces in place
for UK Hoops to exceed expectations

What UK has seen just once in re-

exceeded consensus expectations.

hey‘ve got it all. and with apologies
to Clint Eastwood. this season should
unfold with three major storylines.

The good: 18 wins and a double-over-
time loss in the semifinals of the WNIT.
capping the longest post-season stretch
in UK women‘s hoops history: and a stel-
lar recruiting class that includes two
state Miss Basketballs.

The bad: the loss of forward Sara
Potts. the fourth-leading scorer in the
program‘s history. and point guard An~
gela Phillips. who started 54 consecutive
games her freshman and sophomore
seasons before transferring last semes-

The ugly: scars in the post. Starting

off knee surgeries this offseason.

If head coachMickie DeMoss lost
sleep last season starting three fresh-
man in the brutal Southeastern Confer-
ence. she'll sure be up in her (‘ats‘ paja-
mas worrying about the three‘s knees.

Elliott's knee-tweak reaction is obvi-
ously the biggest concern. The sopho-
more really came on at the end of last
season. starting the final seven games
and finishing with averages of 10.4
points. 5.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per

game. With DeMoss’ stash of Potts‘
points gone. Elliott will be counted on to
shoulder the load. as she should be.

When you look at it. everything is in
place. It's the Mick‘s third year and her
top»10 recruiting class frotn a year ago
has turned into a stellar. SEC battle-test-
ed sophomore contingent. led by Elliott
and guard Samantha Mahoney.

and sat out a year after being diagnosed
with mononucleosis. is back for her ju-
nior season after a brief transfer stint

teams can boast.

Wouldn‘t it be fun to see the team
play its way into the NCAA Tourna-

Wouldn't it be great to get the payoff
for the marketing blitzkrieg. all in one
lump sum?

Wouldn’t it be awesome to see one of
the university’s major-market teams
wildly exceed expectations?

THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

More people then ever will be able to
see the first practice of the year for UK
basketball.

Rupp Arena will play host to Big Blue
Madness tonight instead of Memorial
Coliseum for the first time in the event's
24-year history.

When the move downtown was an
nounced some had mixed feelings. but
tonight the new venue will feature the
largest crowd ever. Fans who've never
been in the lower level may get their first
chance to see the Cats up close for free.

Also unique this year will be a tip
time of 9 pm. instead of midnight.
thanks to new NCAA regulations. mean-
ing tonight’s madness will start and end
earlier.

This raised some grumbling, but UK
Athletics spokesman Scott Stricklin feels
the new start time will end up being a
plus and not a negative.

“Some people have expressed con-
cerns about it not being at midnight this
year but an (earlier) start allows for a lot
more people to go like families who have
children who can‘t be up as late," Strick-
lin said. “The players probably appreci-
ate it too since they have practice Satur-
day morning."

In 30 minutes. 20,000 fans had tickets
and 48 hours later all 23,000 tickets were
gone.

Those left without tickets can watch

have a couple more hours to manage in
order to give everyone proper exposure.

“It‘s going to be bigger and better." he
said. “Some entertainment things. some
new some old but in the end it‘s all about
Kentucky basketball.“

The women‘s team will have a small
scrimmage before the men, Stricklin
said. and the top 10 moments in Rupp
Arena history as voted online by fans
will be unveiled.

“There will be a few surprises that
will have people very excited." he said.
“The fun and games are part of it but at
the end of the night people want to see
basketball and they will.“

Former players in attendance include
Kenny Walker (‘82~‘86). Jeff Sheppard
(‘94-‘98) and Cameron Mills (‘94-’98). For
the second straight year, former Cat Lar-
ry Conley (‘63-'66). who played under
Adolph Rupp, will emcee the event.

“Three times as many people will be
there," Thompson said. “The doors open
at 7:30 pm. and once people have filed in
the show starts.

“(Tonight) is the launch into Ken-
tucky‘s basketball season."

Court: Water won

By Elizabeth Troutman
THE mnucxv mm

The Kentucky Supreme
Court ruled yesterday that
Lexington voters will not head
to the polls next month to de
cide on the future of Ken-
tucky-American Water Co.

The special election,

which was scheduled for Nov
8. was canceled after the
Supreme Court ruled that
the referendum must wait
for a regular election. A reg-
ular election takes place next
year.

Arguments from lawyers
of Kentucky-American and
Bluegrass FLOW (For Local

Celebrating 34 years of independence

Ownership of Water) were
heard on Monday. The court
voted 4-2 against the special
election. Justice John Roach
disqualified himself from the
case for his role as a cam-
paign manager in the 2002
Lexington mayoral election
in which he spoke out
against condemnation.

Warren Rogers, founder
of Coalition Against a Gov-
ernment Takeover. was
heartened when he heard
about yesterday’s ruling.

“i think what this does is
vindicate our efforts," he
said. “The city of Lexington
is my biggest client — l filed
suit against my biggest

client; you don’t do that casu-
ally. This is vindication that
our original reading of the
law was correct.

“People have said we’re
trying to stand in the way of
democracy." he continued.
“No —~ we are trying to up-
hold democracy by uphold-

Just the facts

Local ownership of the Ken-
tucky-American Water Co. has
been debated since September
2001. The company’s estimated
worth is between $157.7 million
and $352.8 million. Lexington May-
or Teresa Isaac has sought to con-
demn the water company and buy

would have ended the condemna-
tion process. The council overrode
Isaac's vetoes and condemnation
supporters began to petition - the
case went to court, where Fayette
County Clerk Don Blevins ordered
a condemnation vote for Nov. 8.
Yesterday, the Kentucky Supreme
Court ruled that election out.

UK benchmarks weigh in

University of Washington, NC State and Purdue offer similar, successful dining plans

By Shaun Cox
in: KENTUCKY mm

While UK’s new meal plan
has been met with mixed
feedback from students. the
university is continuously
looking for ways to improve
it. said Jeff DeMoss, execu-
tive director of dining ser-
vices.

“We‘ve had meetings with
focus groups made up of stu-
dents and resident advisers
about next year‘s plans al-
ready." DeMoss said. “We are
very open to comments from
students because they can
only help us to get better."

Surveys conducted last
month show that students
rank Commons Market above
Blazer and the Student Cen-
ter Food Court for food quali-
ty. and several students left
dissatisfied comments about
the current plan.
