There were many candidates for the position of UCF president. People from other universities, people who are academically strong, people who make strong managers and people with excellent recommendations had hoped to be appointed to the position of president of UCF, Frederick said. "One, however, was a leader," Frederick said. As a leader, Altman shines, according to Charles Edwards, chairman of the Board of Regents. "Leaders have the almost uncanny ability to figure out what to do next before others realize what the problem is," Edwards said. But Altman must understand the nature of his position, Frederick said. "[The university president] must have the ability to make decisions and take risks," Frederick said. "I know that the buildingjob will never end, but [I] will be refreshed by the satisfaction of reaching successively new heigh ts for [UCF]," Altman said. Even a university president is uncertain, doubtful and cautious at times, Altman by Melissa Stoker CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE Bill Thomsonll.JCF Public Allaiis UCF President Steven AJtman gives his inaugural speech about his goals for the university to an audience gathered April 27 in the gymnasium for the inauguration ceremonies. Almost 1 70 delegates of various universities and colleges from across the United StatesgatheredApril27 in the UCF gymnasium to celebrate the inauguration of the third UCF president, Dr. Steven Altman. The inaugural speeches, which followed a week-long celebration for Altman, emphasized the continued growth of the university and the import.a.nee of UCF responding efficiently and effectively to challenges and changes that come in the 1990s. "It is silly for us to use techniques of the '60s for problems of the '90s," Altman said. "UCF recognizes change, as change has been the most pervasive feature of UCF's history," Altman said. In just 22 years of hold'ng classes, UCF has increased its attendance from 650 students to nearly 20,000. UCF has also experienced change in the addition of new degree programs and the growth of athletics, as well as the Central Florida Research Park and University Boulevard. "UCF has been a catalyst to the growth ofour community," Bill Frederick, the mayor of see INAUGURATION page 4 Founders' Day recognizes UCF achievers by Melissa Stoker CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE The University of Central Florida held a Founders' Day celebration April 26 to honor the original founders ofUCF, then called F1orida Technological University, and to appreciate teachers and students who helped in the development of the university. UCF has had three presidents: Charles Millican, the founding president; Trevor Colbourn, the second president; and President Steven Altman. "President Millican literally founded this university, and he did so from the ground up," Altman said. In 1964, each of the 89 founders of UCF gave $10,000 or more to buy a $1 million chunk of land, according to Millican. That land was quickly developed into UCF. see FOUNDER'S DA y page 5 by Mary Watkins and not 'passive.· . "I like to motivate stuaents to be interested in . research 1" he said~ ~ .

Those recommendations were among several made in the WUCF review committee's report to President Steven Altman. The report, dated May 6, also recommended adding student-oriented programming during late afternoon and early evening. The committee Theodore Clevenger, Florida State University; James E. Fletcher, University of Georgia; and Robert J. DuBord, University of Miami-was formed by Altman in March to study the format and operations of WUCF. He formed the committee after students rallied and signed petitions earlier this year protesting WUCF's lack of student-oriented programming. The committee made the following specific recommendations: •Appoint a general manager to oversee WUCF's operation. Clevenger, writing for the committee, said the position should be with 24 hour responsibility. see WUCF REVIEW page 4 2 The Centr~l f.}oridafuture May 16, 1990 • FAMOUS EUROPEANVIDEO DISCO _ --·----------'-'-------~---~·· -,.:....:...;...___;..__ _..__ __ ~-------" The Central Florida Future May 16, 1~90 • • 3 Dorm residents trying to recycle · Group needs funding for receptacles, more • students to participate in collection effort by Rick Baker • CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE Orange Hall residents started a pilot group for a campus dormitory trash recycling project. According to Margaret Jennings, a dorm resident majoring in journalism, the idea for the trash recycling project was originally started by Amy Bushe, a resident assistant for Orange Hall. Bushe spoke with Jennings and Allison Case, an elementary education major, about forming the pilot group to make the recycling project a reality. The group set up four labeled cardboard boxes in the lobby of Orange Hall for collection of materials that could be recycled. The boxes, which were donated by the housing office, were used to hold collections of aluminum, plasbc, glass and paper. Jennings said after -they received the boxes, flyers, courtesy of the Inter-Hall counsel, were distributed to all residents of Orange Hall. The flyers asked the residents to bring their recyclable trash to the receptacle boxes located in the lobby. The trash collection lasted for two months, with Bushe taking loads of trash to a nearby recycling plant every few weeks. "The project has made $2.30, which was donated to the IHC," Jennings said. "Two weeks ago, the boxes were taken back to the housing office because of complaints about flies and the mess the boxes caused," Case said. According to Jennings, the housing officials told her the boxes were only temporary. The group is now looking for an additional source of funding to purchase permanent receptacles. Student government has offered to buy six of these containers. "Next semester a core group of old and new residents will be formed to tackle the recycling project and get more people involved," Jennings said. The members of the current pilot group are looking forward to educating the new residents about the importance of recycling and the effects it will have on the environment. .,., '-q.ue tc{a reporter's error, the Ap~il article 11Staeger cflarged : =:=?Nab second-degree murder" incorrectly cited Hot Shots Bil-:,:')fards .& Games as the site whe(e Bryan Charles Staeger 2S. >:=<=allegedfy attacked Wayne Steven Austifl.

The political scientists, Drs. M. Elliott Vittes, Phillip H. Pollock and Stuart A Lilie, collected their data as part of a UCF study sponsored by Lamar University's Gulf Coast Hazardous Substasnce Research Center in Texas. The researchers worked through the UCF Division of Sponsored Research. The purpose of the study was to determine public attitudes toward environmental issues generally and siting of waste treatment plants in particular.

But nearly half see the plants as poten tia] health and safety threats. Almost that same percentage of respondents saw plants as potentia1 threats when they are nearby, but not at a distance. Far more women than men viewed treatment plants as threatening, while those of both sexes in the 18-25 age group said they felt strongly that such facilities should not be built. Older Floridians, on the other hand, saw a need for additional waste treatment plants. 4 The Central Florida Future May 16, 1990 • College offers tuit'ion refund if job not found Staff Report COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE In what is probably the first such offer in the country, Miami-Dade Community College, the nation's largest community college, is offering students in some programs tuition refunds if they can't find a job after graduation. "The money-back guarantee is our way of saying that there are jobs in some fields," said Joanna Schoen, dean of the allied health programs. To qualify for the plan that will begin in the fall, students must request the program, complete their education at one of the college's five campuses, and pass all required state and federal licensing and certification tests. After that, students must seek an entry-level job within three months of their certification. If they can show 10 rejection letters, the college will pay the cost of the rejectee's tuition, which runs about $300 a year. The program encompasses all health and nursing programs, as well as some vocational programs such as graphic arts and funeral services. "It's a recruitment effort for jobs in areas where there is a severe shortage of workers," Schoen said. "There are countless jobs in those fields, and our placement rate is almost 100 percent, but students Faculty can help continue the expansion of UCF by examining prospective new degree programs and by preparing for the expected enrollment figures of 30,000 students in the 1990s, Altman said. Altman said he plans to build an additional 4,000 dormitory spaces in the next decade. "As we strive for excellence, we will maintain the accent on the individual," Glenn Cunningham, chairman of the faculty senate, said. "We will not... promise more than we can do," Altman said. INAUGURATION FROM PAGE 1 said. However, he said he has "optimistic beliefs about what we can accomplish in the years ahead." 'We will be serious about the virtues and economic necessity of a cultura11y diversified campus," Altman said. "We will expand our area campuses, we will support continued development of the Central Florida Research Park and we will build more parking spaces," Altman added. • are not entering them in large numbers," added Miami-Dade spokeswoman Betty Semet. Schoen says she is confident the college won't lose • money because of the program. Miami-Dade is apparently the first school to offer students a guarantee. The National Association of Trade and Technical Schools, a Washington, D.C.-based lobbying group for proprietary schools, knows ofonly one school with a similar guarantee. Vatterott College, a St. Louis trade school, has been offering a guarantee to companies that have hired its graduates for the past 18 months. If the company is unhappy, Vatterott will retrain the grad for free. • Located in the University Shoppes (near to UC-6) 281-6488 We repair all makes and models. WUCF REVIEW FROM PAGE 1 Clevenger said the general manager should report to either the dean of the school of communications or the vice president for university relations. WUCF program director Peter Carroll reports to instructional resources director Bob Arnold. • Appoint a student as station manager if the university wants students to be involved in WUCF management. Clevenger said the station manager would be appointed by the general manager. • Buy $125,000 of new equipment for the station over a three-year period to bring the station up to modern standards. "Much of the station's gear is antique and receives heavy use," Clevenger wrote. • Implement a three-stage program to determine appropriate programming for WUCF. "Stage one is a compromise to accommodate more studentoriented program ming during prime listening hours," Clevenger wrote. Stage two involves conducting a survey to determine the best role for WUCF in central Florida to create a new programming schedule. Stage three is for UCF to have a second, student-only, broadcasting signal. "This is the dominant pattern that is emerging nationally for academic broadcasting and it accommodates all interests," Clevenger wrote, and is more productive thari a compromise format. UCF spokesman Dean McFall said UCF is pleased with the committee's report. He said the university wiil implement some of the report's recommendations while remaining aware of limitations imposed by the state's budget. "It's a difficult year for all state agencies," he said, because of budget shortfalls. I • The Central Florida Future May 16, 1990 Drinking and driving can kin·a fri'el1dship.

Dr. Cha,rles Micarelli, associate vice president for academic affairs and dean of undergraduate studies, announced UCF's choices for excellence in teaching, in the use of technology in teaching and advising. These professors are responsible for growth at UCF, Mkare11i said. "Growth without learning is impossible," Micare11i said. Micarelli singled out three teachers. Dr. Burt Pryor of the School of Communication was UCFs Teacher of the Year. "His office is usually filled with students working on extra projects and doing thesis work," Micarelli said. Dr. Larry Hudson, of the College of Education won UCFs award for Innovator of the Year In Teaching. Hudson uses advanced technology while teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, Micarelli said. The importance of interpersonal affairs with students led UCF to choose Dr. Robert Laird, of the College of Arts and Sciences, as Advisor of the Year, Micarelli said. "His caring habit in counseling demonstrates some practices that we should all use in advising," Micarelli said. In addition, Dr. Theodore Pfarrer was named UCF Librarian of the Year. UCF also recognized its researchers, and two who excelled were chosen UCF Researchers of the Year: Dr. WalterGaudnek oftheCollege of Arts and Sciences, and Dr. James Taylor of the College of Engineering. They each received a check for $1,500, provided by the UCF Foundation. Two $5,000 research scholfarships were given in honor of Gaudnek and Taylor. Students were also recognized for their progress in researching industrial engineering, psychology, chemistry and biology. "There can be no teachingno furthering of educationwithout research," Altman said. The top 1 percent of undergraduate students in each college were also honored. These students must have completed at least 75 credit hours, with at least 30 hours at UCF. Founders' Day was also a time to recognize the faculty members with 20 years of service at UCF during the 24 years the university's existence. These faculty received medallions. Six retirees from UCF each received a stained glass Pegasus award. "Our university is a gift-a gift of freedom to question, to doubt, to challenge, to explore and to create," said Dr. Edward Patrick Sheridan, appointed dean of the Co Hege of Arts and Sciences beginning this fall. "Our founders gave us the dream and the desire [to do these things]." 1 Show valid UCF l.D. and receive a complimentary drink.

The Altman appointed committee in charge of making a recommendation about changing the station gave their report to him last week. Now the ball is in Altman's court. The committee came up with some pretty good ideas. The central theme of their ideas is compromise. (This is a new, nifty concept. ) They've decided to pacify both the students and the administration. We wish we had thought of that. It makes life a lot easier. They want the students to be able to hear their music during the prime time that we listen to the radio, the evenings. Eventually we'll have our own broadcasting signal to play a variety of music. They proposed that we compromise in this manner. All of the programming changes will, of course, occur only after numerous surveys have been conducted. Among the other recommendations they suggested that WUCF buy new equipment to replace the antiques in use now. Wow, that is really nice of them. Also, they have recommended that the position of general manger be created to keep the station manager in check. This should solve the problem of dictators like Peter Carroll rising to power. We hope the staff at WUCF is pleased with the report the committee composed for Altman. We think they've come with some good ideas, but ideas are useless unless they are implemented. Okay President Altman, now take a stand and actually use the recommendations proposed to you. All eyes are on you t.o make the next turn on this continuing roller coaster. Don't make a wrong turn.

For just the cost of food for a day, you can by a deed for castles in the air_And that's not all. While you're spending your subsistence wages, you can feel truly good about the rniniscule portion of the money that will go to your country in return for hosting... the Florida lottery. After all, you never know. I have been having feelings of ambivalence over the Florida lottery the last few years that it has been invading this st.ate. While I have seen it as a way to make money for my favorite special interest, education, I have also been put off by its very nature as a regressive tax that feeds on the hopes and dreams of the poor for the sake of monies that should be raised otherwise. However, we are living in the Reagan years, a time when we read lips that say, "No new taxes" unless, of course, they are hidden. I tis a time for irresponsible growth, especially herein Florida, where Governor Bob Martinez is willing to take the Bus' l ~ead on truces, even as our state's school system is failing in the education department, and the state faces unbridled growth and ungoverned chaos. And how does Martinez, as a good Reagan Republican, meet the fwy of exponential growth. He taxes, not the affiuent, but the trustful poor. All this is done in the name of funding a school system that is dead last in percent of dropouts and • FIRESTONE FURY Editor: On April 23 I took my car to the Mastercare Firestone located next to the Wal-Mart in Union Park. I've been experiencing brake problems with my car and since my brakes are currently under a Firestone warranty I decided to go there. I gave the service technician my keys and warranty papers. He gave me a copy of the work order ancl said that I would be called that afternoon. When I called them that afternoon I was informed that they would not honor my. warranty because it was from a Don Olsen Firestone and not a Mastercare Firestone. This did not get me upset. What ticked me off is the fact that they did not call me about the warranty and !just sat around and waited for them to call. They also did not look at or inspect my brakes. I could be driving around with serious brake problems, I may not find out until it is too late. As a result of their actions I CAMPUS COMMENTARY Patrick A.

After all, we Floridians have money to bum, so long as we don't think ]tis going to ard taxes. What cannot e overlooked is the potential exporting of the Florida lottery to Latin American and Caribbean countries. What right do we have to foist our faulty programs on other countries? For the sake c.f avoiding our own taxes? I thin not. If the rich of the Caribbean and Latin America wish to wile away their dinero, let them fly up to Florida But for the sake of the poor of these developing countries, let s not sen them the intangible pipe dreams that we delude ourselves with in the st.ates.

By writingthisletterlalsohope to inform the UCF students who use any Firestone about the injustice against me and ask them to take their business elsewhere. A company like Firestone might not miss one custo1.1er, but if they fear the lose of several customers they might decide to change their policy. Keith L. Shepherd mathematics •BOXING MATCH BLUES Editor: This past spring semester The Central Florida Future made a mockery of the Second Annual Greek Gloves competition. In an article which ran on April 3, The Future, in a particularly out of text paragraph, stated, ''The only thing that seemed to save some of the Greek Gloves fighters had to be that they get practice not falling • 1 down drunk." You are in error and you are definitely out ofline to make such a comment. Being one of the par- · ticipants in Greek Gloves, I know that the athletes who took part in the competition trained very seriously. Many began training in September and proudly stepped into the ring on behalf of their fraternity. I have come to realize that the writers of The Central Florida Future are anti-Greek. Before you write another story on a Greek event, such as the boxing match, I suggest you think twice about making the participants look like wanna-be fighters that are talcing a single night off from a keg of beer. Unless, of course, you are going to step into the ring yourself. You owe the participants of Greek Gloves and the entire fraternity system an apology.

"On behalf of my colleagues in the United States Senate, it is my privilege to invite you to accept membership in the Republican Senatorial Inner Circle and join President and Mrs. Bush for a special dinner. We're going to get naked and dance the lambada in a vat of fudge." I'm just kidding about that last sentence, of course. The Republicans would use Jell- 1 o. But I'm not kidding about Sen. Dole's letter, which really did invite me to join the Republican Senatorial Inner Circle. "Senator Connie Mack placed your name in nomination," explains the letter. Connie Mack is a Republican senator from my state, Florida, who, despite being only a freshman, has already earned a tremendous amount of respect for the overall quality of his hair. According to Sen. Dole's letter, Sen. Mack nominated me "because he believes your accomplishments and commitment to our nation prove you worthy of membership :in this prestigious organization."

Connie Mack got wind of this and realized that I was the kind ofmaterial they're looking for in the Republican Senatorial Inner Circle. According to the material that Bob Dole sent me, all I have to do is pay a $1,000 annual memberslrip fee, plus the $285 conference fee, and I get to attend not only the big dinner-dance with the Bushes, but also "a full day of closed-door briefings by key Washington officials."

With the success of these films, Disney has promised to release a new animated film every year. This year's feature is The Little Mermaid. The Little Mermaid is the first animated film to be developed from a script. It required over one million drawings, a crew of 450 people and took three and a half years to complete. The inspiration for The Little Mermaid came from the Hans Chris~ian Andersen fairy tale of the same name. It is Disney's first animated fairy tale since Sleeping Beauty (1959). The main character is Ariel, a mermaid who yearns to join the human world above the sea. Ariel's creators are veteran Disney animators Mark Henn and Glen Keane, who loosely based her physical characteristics on those of Alyssa Milano (Who's the Boss? ). The voice of Ariel is Broadway actress Jodi Benson. Benson was chosen over 300 actresses who auditioned for the part of Ariel. "It was funny," she said,"It went down to about three girls and I got it. It was the easiest job I'd ever gotten." Benson and the other actors had the task of creating emotion with simply their voices. "I'm not normally a method actress," Benson said, "I had to pull out all the stops. It was just my voice and nothing else and that was kind of a struggle." Co-writer/director Ron Clements attributes the animators and the actors with bringing the character to life. "The animator and the voice talent are the real actors," Clements said, On May 18th, Walt Disney Studios will release it's 28th animated feature 'The "The drawing is fairy tale is Disney's first since 1959's 'Sleeping Beauty.' actually secondary." the animators begin the the film, drawing even the The character begins with a lengthy process of creating slightest of movement.

The New artists worth a listen "·· by Matt Thomas CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE Title: The Myth of Rock Artist: Consolidated Producer: Michael Ahearn Label: I.R.S. Consolidated is the hard hitting, semi-rap trio of Mark Pistel, Philip Steir, and Adam Sherburne. I use the word "rap" reluctantly, for lack of a better description of the group's unique style. At times they sound like Living Colour and other times they sound like Public Enemy. One thing they have in common with groups like Living Colour and Public Enemy is their very political nature. In fact, in a lot of cases, Consolidated goes beyond both Living Colour and Public Enemy. In "America Number One," they expose the myth of America, how it no longer exists 1 only large corporations like IBM, ATT, ITT, Dow, Dupont, and Union Carbide. In "White American Male," they ask the question: ·"what have you done to stop the pattern of institutionalized racism," and use the KKK theme song to prove their point. "Love, Honor, and Respect," is about how men condition women to receive themselves in a state of oppresive dysfuction. "Weakness (parts 1 & 2)," is about the weakness of pop music and the "mafia nazis and child molesters" who run the entertainment industry. I suppose the only real way to describe Consolidated is to use their own words: "This is not a rock 'n' roll band, this is a unique vision of a small isolated group of dedicated individuals, searching for the knowledge that will enable them to improve the qualitiy of their lives and the lives of those around them. This is a democratically executed forum for social and political transformation." Overall, their combination of straight-forward lyrics and funky beat works very well. Consolidated is easily one of the best "rap" groups to come around in a long while. t. . IMIY /B$~Lrg,?R'~ ~i ' ~ , );, \1>, ' ~;. . i,1'. ', . ~.~:'·~". ~ . 't")r , ~\~ .

"Here's Where the Story Ends" "Hello" seems like the perfect introduction to a beautifully con structed pop record like Happiness. The song styles on the LP run the gamut of early 80's, ABC-influenced disco to the "alternative" club sound of today. The album's first single, "Hello," has already certified itself as a hit on the club circuit and the LP promises many singles are sure to follow. One of the album's highlights is the second track, "Your Love Takes Me Higher." Automatic attraction to the irresistable beat will ensure this as their second single choice. The ballads, "Time After Time" and "Don't You Worry," aren't exactly the most incredible love songs ever written, but they easily satisfy the requirements of the style. The only place Happiness fails as an LP is where the band seems to get bogged down in it's own creation - the heavy cut, "Found" is the perfect example. If you are in search of an album that will satisfy your summer craving for fun music, make sure to take a peek at Happiness. Chances are you won't be disappointed. The Sundays 4.

The number, "Under the Sea" won the Academy Award for Best Song. MERMAID FROM PAGE 12 complete these tasks. "Computers help with the odd jobs," said Andreas Deja, animator of Ariel's father, King Triton. "But the characters are done by hand. It's all emotional. The characters have to act." After the characters and backgrounds are drawn, the eels are painted. Each eel of each scene must have a perfect color match to the one before it. Over 1,000 different colors were used in The Little Mermaid. These finished eels are then shot onto film and set into final sequence, which is completed with the character.voices and musical score. After such a long and tedious process, it seems unusual that Disney will release a new animated feature every year. But in fact, work is already being completed on sequels to Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and The Rescuers. The Rescuers Down Under and Roller Coaster Rabbit, the two film sequels, will hit movie screens sometime this year. "The Little Mermaid has some beautiful scenes in it," he continued. "You'll have to watch it a second time. You'll see a lot more. There is one frame where Mickey Mouse appears. I won't tell you where though." Katzenberg worries that the film will be seen as strictly a children's film. "I hope this movie has an opport~ity to be seen by everyone," he said. "If you see the film with the kids, it touches your soul It gives them a glow. They fall out of their seats with laughter," Katzenberg said with a smile. The Little Mermaid may not be a Disney classic yet, but it is certainly a re-birth of the old masters' values; a creation of the hands that touches the heart.

The baseball season is conring to the end and the Knights will make their last bid to gain a playoffberth with a pair ofgames this weekend against the University of Miami. The minimum goal number of victories needed to have a chance is 40 and the Knights reached that goal with a three-game sweep of Rollins College over the weekend. But 40 wins do not necessarily guarantee a post-season berth. "It puts us in a better position," UCF Coach Jay Bergman said. "We still have to go to Miami to win. Forty wins do not ensu'!'e us a playoff berth." At the very least, it will take some of the pressure of winning the crucial 40th game in Miami against the No. 3 Hurricanes. Nat that it concerned Bergman. He said the team played the weekend series against Rollins relaxed. "Right now we're real excited," senior catcher Bobby Kiser said. "[Forty wins] doesn't mean anything. I think it helps a little, but it doesn't mean we can let up. We won't let up." In the last two seasons, the Knights have lost five consecutive games to the Hurricanes. UCF has scored just five runs in the five games and were shut out once . In the only meeting this year, the Knights lost 4-2 at the UCF Baseball Complex. "That does not matter," Kiser said. "Most of the guys did not play Miami last year." The Knights will be meeting Miami at the right time. The Hurricanes lost five consecutive games. The Knights, however have won three in a row and have been showing the form during their 22-game winning streak. Since the streak ended, the Knights are 10-8. "I think we're on track," Kiser said. "We're doing the things we were doing when wewon22 stnright. Ernie's starting to hit the ball really well. He went into a bit of a power slump.

Martinez hit three home runs the final two days against Rollins giving him seven on the year. He leads UCF with a .359 batting average and is second with 50 RBI. But if anyone is "doing it noW', it is Kiser. In the past 11 games in which UCF has gone 8-3, he has hit .486 with 4 home runs and 18 RBI. "We're playing our best ball of the year right now," Bergman said. wrhat's what you want to do." Should the Knights sweep Miami, they would almost be guaranteed a post-season berth. A split is more realistic and the Knights would finish the year at 41-19, one game better than they finished the regular season last year. After last year's trip to regionals, it is unlikely that the number of Florida schools chosen for the playoffs will be a factor. With Florida, Jacksonville, Stetson, Florida State, and South Florida having strong programs and often receiving playoff bids through their conferences there was a reluctance to take both Central Florida and Miami as independents. "We beat everybody else," Kiser said. "We can play with the best of them. It's not just Miami, Florida State and Florida anymore."

UCF followed it up with a 9-2 victory in Winter Park and completed the sweep Sunday, 5-4, in 12 innings. "I think we played relaxed this weekend," UCF Coach Jay Bergman said. "Those were three well-played games. We played good baseball. Our kids played tough." Sunday's game honored the seniors, but it was freshman rightfielder Chad Mottola who provided the key hits. Trailing 4-3 in the eighth inning, Steve McClellan led off with a single. Mottola later singled to drive in McClellan and tie the score. Mottola also drove in the winning run in the 12th inning. Ernest Martinez drove a one-out single to left and reached second when Rollins' left fielder Trey Coffie misplayed the ball. Relief pitcher Carmine Cappuccio then intentionally walked Bobby Kiser (2for-5) to set up a force play. But Mottola did not cooperate. He poked a single just past shortstop Shawn Junker to bring Martinez home with the winning run. "It was nice to win the last home game for the seniors," Mottola said. "It will be nice to have 40 wins when we go to Miami." Mottola (3-for-6) drove in two runs and scored the Knights' first run. Rollins took a 1-0 lead after three innings. UCF came back to up 3-1 before Rollins regained the lead, 4-3. Brian Huie, who has seven saves on the year, pitched the final 4 2/3 innings to earn his first victory of the year. Martinez hit three borne runs in the three-game series. They were his first home runs since March 8 against Pittsbutgh. Kiser also homered. • l ..
