Year in review Full coverage of 2003-2004 UA Athletics begins on page 161 f f I ARIZONA ' STOOPS ' TO NEW LEVEL ' FAN ' demon urn Hoards of fans stormed the gates and poured onto the Arizona Stadium turf during the waning moments of the Wildcats ' second win of the year, a 27-22 upset win over Washington at Homecoming on Nov. 10, 2003. A melee ensued at midfield as fans celebrated with UA players while others dangled from goalposts at the stadium ' s north end zone. The Wildcats had lost eight straight overall and hadn ' t won a Pac-10 home game since defeating Washington State two years ago. UA senior linebacker Joe Siofele said he was speechless after seeing fans start to climb the neon-yellow goalpost. I don ' t know what to say. This is one of the greatest wins I ' ve been a part of, said Siofele, who tallied five tackles and a sack. A crowd of 48,319 watched sophomore Mike Bell rush for a career- high 222 yards and three touchdowns in the game, the fifth highest total in school history. It ' s not just a ' W, ' athletic director Jim Livengood, who had fired Mackovic a month prior, said. This is a big-time win. Mike Stoops, that is. In a year marred by the fact that the UA football team had more head coaches than wins in 2003, Wildcat faithful can be certain that the gray skies are going to clear up and fast. Stoops attempts to pick up the pieces after the embarrassing saga of former head coach John Mackovic. Mackovic was fired Sept. 28, 2003, just hours after losing to Texas Christian in overtime. At the time of his firing, the Wildcats were 1-4. In his 2 1 2 seasons at the UA, he posted a record of 10- 18 overall. FIRST ROUND FALL The last game of the Arizona basketball season unfolded much like the season itself. Arizona (20-10) came out in the first half and dominated, looking like a Final Four contender. Then the Wildcats fell apart, and both the game and the season ended with bitter disappointment. It seems like a repeat of our problem all year long, Olson said following his team ' s season- ending loss. We have a hard time living with prosperity. The loss capped an erratic season. Arizona started the season 10-1 but went 9-9 in its last 18 games to finish third in the Pac-10.
