SEATTLE — The first time the Lumineersvisited Los Angeles, they were robbed inbroad daylight.
That’s been just one part of a taxing butrewarding initiation this year for the Coloradoband.
Dismayed but not disenchanted, bandmembers bought a new set of instruments anda cage to store their gear in. By the time theband returned to L.A. in late March, after asuccessful stint at South by Southwest, themusicians were veterans of the road. In oneyear the musicians, who refer to themselves as“heart-on-the-sleeve” lyricists, played 110shows and traversed the country.
The Denver-based Lumineers evoke thethoughtful but confident sounds of folksyrock. Lead singer Wesley Schultz pairs hisdeep unwavering voice with a few simplenotes plucked on a guitar. He’s joined by Jere-miah Fraites on drums and cellist NeylaPekarek. Most songs start simply and pick upspeed and momentum, leaving the listener tap-ping along. The Lumineers debut their self-ti-tled first full-length album Tuesday.
Schultz admits that music didn’t alwayscome naturally to the three-piece band.
“We really weren’t sure how to convey (onstage) what we felt when playing the song,”said Schultz.
Engaging with the crowd was key.“It just takes a couple of audience mem-
bers to transform an audience,” he explained.“Some people start clapping and then every-one is. (It’s about) getting through to peo-ple.”
Just as the band has come of age, so haveits lyrics. Some songs deal with a love realizedonly with time (“Flowers in Your Hair”), acouple learning to commit (“Dead Sea”) and aheadstrong romance (“Stubborn Love”). Thecathartic feel of The Lumineers’ music is asound honed with time, Schultz said.
“You start out imitating and then hopefullyyou reach your stride,” he said. “You becomeyour own compass.”
“I can’t believe it,” Schultz said of theband’s recent success. “The word ‘excitement’doesn’t capture what we’re feeling right now.”

The celebration mirrored that to Sat-urday night, but with more people andfewer flipped cars. State Street wasflooded with supporters, all cheering “C-A-T-S” in unison.
The anticipation had been buildingup since Saturday evening.

Jon Tsang stands on people’s shoulders during celebrations after UK’s win over Kansas on Monday towin an eight national championship.
Fireworks exploded in thestreets as fans celebratedUK’s eighth national champi-onship.
As the game came to aclose, people flooded thestreets, jumping on each oth-ers shoulders and chantingabout their passion for BigBlue Nation.
Minutes before the gameended, cops lined acrossWoodland and Euclid av-enues to prepare for the cele-bration.
Lauren Bewley, a 2009Transylvania graduate, re-membered the last time UKtook the championship in1998.
“I was in middle schoollast time they won,” she said.
But this time it felt a littlesweeter.
“I’m ecstatic,” she said.Before 10 p.m., the bars at
the intersection of Woodlandand Euclid had hit capacity.
T-Bar, Cosmic Charlie’sand Lynagh’s Irish Pubstopped letting people in towatch UK sweep the nationaltitle as early as 8 p.m.
People flooded into thestreets outside of T-Bar andattempted to watch the gamefrom a distance.
“You can’t get any betterthan this,” said Jack Janecek,a nutrition dietetics senior.“What else can you ask for?We were here to win no mat-ter what.”
Following Saturday’smayhem on State Street, theEuclid-Woodland intersectionremained tame, yet spirited.
“We haven’t seen toomuch happen,” said Lexing-ton police Lt. C.D. Schnelle.“It has just been a partying,celebratory atmosphere.”
Schnelle said the intersec-tion was shut down around 5p.m. and there was no settime to reopen it.
He said everything wentsmoothly for the officers.
“We had a plan and stuckto it,” he said. “It has workedso far.”
As of 12:50 a.m., no onehad been arrested at the inter-section, he said.
Light sources were set onEuclid Avenue near Universi-ty Plaza and Transylvania Av-enue, illuminating the crowdas people danced their way
through the streets. Broken beer bottles, con-
fetti and balloons were justsome of the props peopleused to show their spirit.
A dance circle formedoutside Off The Hookah andstrangers embraced to technomusic blasting into thestreets.
Jay Lawless, an integratedstrategic communication jun-ior, said the night was some-thing he had been waiting forsince the last time UK wonthe national championship in1998.
Lawless said he was 9years old, celebrating with hisfamily on Transylvania in ‘98.
He said his parents would-n’t let him move to the Euclid-Woodland intersection.
“I made a promise that Iwould be here the next timethey won,” he said.
And he was, among thou-sands of other fans who werecelebrating the the Cats’ vic-tory.
“I came over here for thecelebration,” said MatthewWholey, a finance junior.“Big Blue Nation really gavethe support we needed to winthe game.”

NEW ORLEANS — It took UK head coach John Caliparithree years at the university to bring home a national champi-onship. It took an Elite Eight year and a Final Four year toreach the national title in the third year, and at the sound ofthe buzzer Calipari and the Cats were on their feet bouncingwith excitement and smiles from ear to ear.
The seconds dragged on for the Cats as the clock wounddown, creeping for the final buzzer.
“I wanted that buzzer to go off, that’s what I really want-ed,” senior guard Darius Miller said. “They did a great job offighting the whole 40 minutes. They was a great team andwhen we finally found out that we won it, it just didn’t feelreal.”
As UK filtered back in the locker room, sophomore for-ward Terrence Jones faced the crowd and raised the trophy forall the fans to see. Miller flaunted the remains of the net, grin-ning.
“Where’s my mommy,” Jones said as the players climbedover the rail and crawled through the stands to reach theirfamilies.
Miller climbed the college basketball ladder each year inUK’s quest to climb the ladder that leads to a net and a pair ofscissors in the national championship.
Sophomores Jones and Doron Lamb shrugged off theurges to declare for the NBA draft last season in hopes tobring a national championship back to Kentucky.
“(Freshman forward Anthony Davis) said, ‘I told you Iwas gonna help get you a championship,’” Miller said.
The freshmen, in adoration of their coach, their fan base,their upperclassmen and their school sought out on an ar-guably unthinkable goal to win it all.
“We know (Calipari) enjoyed it. It’s his first one,” fresh-man point guard Marquis Teague said. “We won a champi-onship and as a coach that’s what you really want to do.”
But a senior, two sophomores and three freshmen led theCats to the top of the pyramid; a national championship, along

As UK’s players walked offthe floor toward their familiesin the stands, they decidedhandshakes and high-fives andhugs weren’t enough to cele-brate what had just happened, a67-59 win over Kansas to winthe national championship.
They climbed the railingand went into the stands. Dar-ius Miller led the way, climb-ing farther and farther as hecelebrated. Terrence Jonestook a picture with the cham-pionship trophy in his rightarm and a baby in his left.
A security guard ran towardthem, screaming that they need-ed to get out of the crowd.
Another security guard cuthim off.
“They just won the wholething,” he said. “Let themhave their moment.”
And so they did, the UKplayers immersed in UK fans,jointly celebrating a nationalchampionship.
It’s the eighth champi-onship for the program, andthe first in 14 years, and thatmatters for the fans.
But it’s the first champi-onship for the players, andthat’s what matters to them.
UK achieved it by playingthe way — well, the same waythat made them clear-cut na-tional title favorites all year:the best collection of talentplaying as the best team in the
nation.“I wanted this one to be
one for the ages,” head coachJohn Calipari said. “Go outthere and show everyone whattype of team you are.”
That type of team wouldbe a complete one, a rotationfilled top to bottom with un-selfish players who remainedunselfish on the biggest stage.
Anthony Davis, whose of-fense remained stagnant, madeup for it in other ways, grab-bing 16 rebounds with sixblocks and five assists.
Darius Miller went frommissing the NCAA tournamenthis freshman season to win-ning the NCAA tournament asa senior.
“I didn’t even think thiswas possible after my firstyear,” said Miller, the netdraped around his neck andchampionship trophy sitting infront of him.
Michael Kidd-Gilchristscored 11 points with six re-bounds, and his customary en-ergy and passion showedthrough again at the end. Hecould feel a national champi-onship closing in, just 53 sec-onds and six points away, andas he came to the bench hecouldn’t help himself. “Oh,yeah!” he said, smiling andthen pounding the floor withhis fist in excitement.
He had felt it earlier in theday, too. He woke up at 5:30a.m., screaming, playing mu-sic, reminding his teammatesthat they were finally here.
“It was going to be a greatday,” Kidd-Gilchrist said.“And guess what happened?We won.”
Players ‘havetheir moment’

John Calipari was asked about winninghis first national championship, and his firstreaction was relief. He said he was tired. He
pinched the bridged of hisnose and rubbed his eyes.
"I told my wife, ‘I’mglad it’s done,’ so I can getabout my business ofcoaching basketball,” Cali-pari said. “I can get onwith it and I don’t have tohear the drama. I can justcoach now. I don’t have toworry. If you want toknow the truth, it’s almostlike, done, let me moveon.”
Take a look back first.Three years and a day
since being formally an-nounced as the new head coach, Caliparibrought home the school’s eighth nationalchampionship.
He came to Lexington that day with avision and constructed a new way of chasinga title around it. Give me as much talent aspossible, he said, and I’ll make it work.
He remained adamant that his methodwould work, even as detractors disagreedand even as his own teams fell short. Head-ing into the title game, he said it would ei-ther work now, or it would work later.
It worked now. For Calipari, it couldn’t have come in a
better scenario.He beat Kansas and Bill Self, who had
defeated his Memphis team in 2008 as theTigers missed shot after shot and the Jay-hawks hit a buzzer-beater to send the gameinto overtime, where they prevailed. Caliparihad seen his title wash away after leading by
nine with 2:12 to go. It didn’t seem asthough Calipari had ever really gotten overthat game. It didn’t seem as though Calipariwould ever get over that game until he final-ly won a title.
And then: UK led Kansas by seven with2:12 to go. The clock dwindled, and theCats made their shots. Marquis Teague hittwo with 53 seconds left, putting UK up byeight. As he came to the bench immediatelyafterward, Calipari leaned down to him and
gave two emphatic high-fives. After thebuzzer sounded, Calipari finally let himselfdetach from the actual game. He turnedaround, found longtime assistant John Robicand hugged him.
Finally champions.“He gives to our state, our university, his
players,” athletics director Mitch Barnhartsaid. “For him to be able to enjoy being anational championship coach is really spe-

cial.”He did so in the most
all-or-nothing season he’sever experienced.
The pre-season talk wasabout how Calipari needed atitle, eventually, to confirm
his merits as a coach, andthat this year was his bestshot. At times it felt like itwas his only shot, the ex-pectations reached so high.
He maintained throughall of it that he wasn’t con-cerned with a title, that hislegacy will encompass morethan that.
“I feel the same as I didbefore the game,” Calipari
said. “I don’t feel any differ-ent. I’m not going to changewho I am.”
He’s right, of course, buthe’s been a basketball guyall his life. He knows what atitle means. A championshipis a big part, maybe thebiggest part, of any coach’slegacy.
Now he has one to callhis own.

Students shot fireworks into the skyand lit fires with T-shirts and beerboxes, all of which were quickly put outby police.
People started pregaming early Mon-day, as fans were tailgating and drinkingat restaurants and bars.
Throughout the day on Monday,Lexington police blocked off State Streetand towed cars parked there.
Students could move their cars toCommonwealth Stadium K lots on Mon-day afternoon.
Lexington and UK police said earli-er in the day that they were working toidentify those who started fires on StateStreet on Saturday, when multiplecouches were burned, cars wereflipped, and even one car was set onfire.
The large fires and upended carswere noticeably absent from Monday’s
celebrations. Students instead opted togather en masse with cheers, fireworksand plenty of high-fives.
Bryce Sanders, a fifth grader fromTaylor Mill Elementary in Covington,Ky., came down with his parents to seethe UK celebrations.
“I think it’s fun,” said the 11-year-oldwith a unibrow painted on his forehead.“Best time I’ve ever had.”
Fans continued to conglomerate onState Street and showed no signs of dis-persing as of 1 a.m. The crowd was esti-mated to be abut 5,000 people, accordingto officers on the scene.
The party was predicted to last “allnight,” Ashley Court, a communica-
tion disorders junior, said. “BourbonStreet doesn’t have anything on StateStreet.”
Arrests were made on State Street,University Avenue and Conn Terrace,many pertaining to arson, according toseveral eyewitnesses.
A $25 reward is being offered tothose who can identify people involvedin criminal activity.
Most, though, flooded State Streetsimply for the chance to celebrate. Fanswaited 15 years, and accordingly madethe celebration worthwhile.
“All night” said Kessler, when askedabout the duration of the celebrations.“‘Til the break of dawn.”

The crowd exploded onSouth Limestone, celebrat-ing UK men’s basketball’seithth national champi-onship.
“I have one word foryou: Dynasty,” Bo Biggers,

As soon as the Cats wonthe national championship, awoman knelt to the ground inthe middle of the street andcried.
Followed closely behindwas a fan who climbed thestreet lamp to cheer to thou-
sands below.“This is just a dream,”
Priya Patel, a chemical engi-neering sophomore, said.“I’m so proud of our play-ers.”
One fan donned a UKapron, nothing else.
Chants of “C-A-T-SCats! Cats! Cats!” echoed
down the streets and acrosscampus.
“Bow down to thebrow,” Shelby Lantz, a me-chanical engineering sopho-more, said. “It deserves itsown religion.”
Crushed beer bottleslined the streets, yet no fansseemed to pay attention.
They only cared about theirbasketball team.
“It is well deserved,”Teila Winburn, a nursingsophomore, said.
Meanwhile, police weretrying to control the crowdsfrom becoming violent.
“The emergency medicalunits were moved to themore volatile areas tonight,”Lexington police Lt. J.J.Lombardi said.
Before the game ended,police were cheering on theWildcats with the crowds.
As soon as the game hadthree minutes left on theclock, police put their fullriot gear on and prepared forthe crowds.
“We were expecting thecrowds to be just as ram-bunctious and along thesame lines as they were onSaturday,” Lombardi said.“We were expecting around8,000 people.”
The thousands gathereddidn’t seem to mind thechaos, but seemed to em-brace it.
A fan brought a silver-
casted version of the “3 gog-gles” and would hold it up tohis eyes up every time hetried to take a picture withpolice.
He even tried to get thepolice officers to join him.Some did.
One fan painted the “3goggles” on his face in blueand wore a white cape with a“K.” He crowd surfedthrough South Limestonewith cheers following him.

NEW ORLEANS — After 14years, the Cats brought theireighth national championshipback to the state of Kentucky.
UK (38-2) defeated Kansas(32-7) 67-59 in its quest foreight at the Mercedes-Benz Su-perdome on Monday night.
“What I wanted them toshow (Monday) is that wewere not just a talented team,”UK head coach John Caliparisaid. “We were a defensiveteam and we were a team thatshared the ball.”
A raucous blue-clad crowdcheered on its choice of teamsMonday in the national cham-pionship, and after fast-paced,physical play, the Cats’ defenseallowed them to string togethersome transition points in theopening minutes.
Sophomore guard DoronLamb joined UK’s 1,000-pointclub in the first six minutes,scoring four points in the Cats’first media timeout leading 13-9. Lamb scored seven in thefirst half to give him 1,006 ca-reer points. He finished the lastgame of the season with 22points.
“Coach Cal told me I’mgoing to have a big game,”Lamb said. “Had a greatshoot-around. I made a lot ofshots and helped my team towin.”
UK strung together multi-ple runs in the first half, tying a12-2 run to lead 39-21 with2:59 to play. That run put theCats in position to return to thelocker room at halftime with acomfortable 41-27 lead.
Freshman forward Antho-ny Davis was scoreless at thehalf, but grabbed nine re-bounds, four assists and threeblocks. Freshmen guardMichael Kidd-Gilchrist walkedoff the court a national champi-onship winner and recorded 11points and six rebounds.
The second half startedslower for the Cats, and theydidn’t get their first bucket un-til Lamb landed a tip-in with16:44 to play.
A series of turnovers on theUK end of the court allowedKansas to close the lead 46-34in the second half with 13:54to play.
“We huddled up and at thatmoment we just wanted to getstops,” Lamb said. “Told our-selves we got to get stops towin the game.”
Lamb sparked a 6-0 run af-ter the Jayhawks cut the leaddown to 10 with back-to-back3 pointers to give the Cats a54-38 lead with 10 minutes toplay in the season.
Kansas was able to claw itsway into the game, closing thegap to single digits at the fourminute mark. The Jayhawkscut the lead down to as little asfive points in the final mo-ments of the contest.
But the Cats pulled awayand sunk their free throws toend in a team embrace, jump-ing, smiling and hugging eachother at the sound of thebuzzer.
“They’ll have a big picturein the Craft Center of their na-tional championship team,”Calipari said. “They can walk(their kids) up and show them,‘This was me. I was skinnythen, I know, but that’s what Ilooked like.’”
with multiple records set by players belong-ing to them until they’re stripped away.
The amount of honors this team hasracked up throughout the season sets them
high in the pinnacle of college athletics.And Calipari with the help of the Cats re-
stored UK’s team from the “darkest hour,”according to several UK fan videos referringto former head coach Billy Gillispie’s era.
“The fans, the Big Blue Nation, all thepeople of the Commonwealth of Kentucky,we did this for them, too,” Calipari said. “Weknow what it means to them.”

The Commonwealth of Kentucky has waited14 years for another national championship.
On Monday night, the Cats won an eighthNCAA title. Now is a time for fans to cherish thatwin.
This year’s men’s basketball team has been astrong example of what can be accomplishedwhen individuals work together as one. Thoughyoung, the Cats learned to play not for themselvesbut for the team.
And while doing so, they also brought Ken-tucky together as a state.
New and old fans have watched this teamlearn and grow, and eventually finish as the num-ber one team in the nation.
Their accomplishments during the regular sea-son and tournaments reflect positively on the statewhose name they wear on their jerseys.
And this win can only generate positive con-versation about UK and what can be achieved innot only athletics but also in academics and re-search.
Congratulations to the 2011-12 Cats for mak-ing their fans and nationwide following proud.
Champs inspire teamwork
CHRISTOPHER EPLING, Kernel cartoonist
I didn’t see Kansas fans celebratinglike UK fans (Saturday) night. And theJayhawks’ win was much more impres-sive.
Yes, we won. But we beat a No. 4seeded Louisville team that we hadalready beat on Dec. 31. It’s room forcelebrations but not the type thatoccurred last night in Lexington.
After driving around a bit (Saturday)and seeing the masses gather and cele-brate, I had to pinch myself to make sureI was really in Lexington and not part ofan Arab Spring riot.
So I ask, why?Simple answer: too much alcohol. Coach John Calipari is right, UK
fans are some of the best, but even thebest, classiest fans fail to keep theircomposure when alcohol is involved.
I’ve done stupid things whendrunk, but never have I flipped a carand lit it on fire or thrown bottles atpolice.
We aren’t going to class and wewill celebrate even bigger than Satur-day night if we become championsMonday night, but then the celebra-tions will make more sense, becausebeating Louisville was mediocre atbest.

Celebrations tarnishuniversity’s image
letters to the editor
It’s very sad to me that many arecompletely uninformed on exactly whattook place (Saturday) night in Lexingtonand then judge the entire university andstudent body on the actions of a few.
Celebrations after the Wildcats’ winwere held all over Lexington — peace-fully.
On Limestone, chants of “CATS-CATS-CATS” and “GO BIG BLUE”resounded. Woodland and Euclid werethe same. Only State Street, which is alloff-campus student housing, got rowdy.
It’s even impressive that the chaoswas contained to a single street. Thosewho got out of control will be punished;the Lexington police department did anexcellent job Saturday night — let’s nottry to do their job for them by condemn-ing all students who celebrated.
For the most part, police on Lime-stone and Euclid were enjoying them-
selves and taking pictures with studentswhile making sure these celebrationsremained peaceful.
It saddens me that some people feelthey need to bring the greater state ofKentucky’s problems into such a wonder-ful celebration of a single state university.
UK is a proud institution of higherlearning in a state that, yes, has itsissues.
However, UK students take greatpride in their university, their sportsteams and their state.
As a native Kentuckian and UK stu-dent, I was proud of the majority of myfellow students and the way our victoryover Louisville was celebrated.
Before you judge, make sure you arenot making blanket statements about awidely diverse population of people.
Mary Alice Clark is a UK student.Email [email protected].
