Alistair Chapman and Xuemei Cai will receive the Freeman Medal, which is awarded each year to one man and one woman selected by administration for their moral character and community involvement.

The Nugent Awards, created in memory of Robert Logan Nugent who was the UA's executive vice president when he died in 1963, will go to Joshua Wright and Megan Hammer. [Read article]

Sharpshooter Salim Stoudamire steals the show during senior year

Salim Stoudamire has come a long way since he arrived at the university, a shy and misunderstood individual trying to escape the shadow of his cousin and close friend, Damon Stoudamire.

Though Salim remains shy and, to a point, misunderstood, the final hurrah in his senior season was one he said he thoroughly enjoyed.

Out was the scowl on the face of Stoudamire after missing shots, described by many, including head coach Lute Olson, as a perfectionist who is very hard on himself. In was the smile seldom seen in his first three years. [Read article]
