After an extremely disappointing performance at Texas Tech on Wednesday, the Arizona Wildcats volleyball players and coaches had a long meeting before getting on the plane to come home. It seemed to work. The team returned to McKale Center and swept No. 13 TCU on Halloween by the score of 25-16, 25-23, 26-24. “We needed […]
Editor’s note: With several sports going on, Wildcat Wrap serves as a recap that focuses on the Arizona programs that we do not have the time to cover on a regular basis but are certainly worthy of recognition. Arizona cross country competed at the Big 12 Championships Friday in Lawrence, Ks., where the men’s team […]
With five games remaining in the regular season, Arizona is two wins away from being eligible for a bowl. The Wildcats have been in that same scenario since early October, though, dropping their last two games by one score apiece before getting a week off. Refreshed and refocused, Arizona (4-3, 1-3 Big 12) begins the […]
Following back-to-back years with Caleb Love serving as the team’s leading scorer, Arizona heads into the 2025-26 season with only one player who averaged double figures a year ago. That’s Jaden Bradley, who will again be a big part of the Wildcats’ offense, but will the senior be able to elevate his game to where […]
It was far from a perfect season for the Arizona Wildcats’ senior soccer players. Four of the five finished their careers without a trip to the NCAA Tournament. On the other hand, they got to play spoiler to in-state rival Arizona State by helping keep the Sun Devils out of the Big 12 Tournament with […]
After a tough first outing for Becky Burke and the Arizona women’s basketball team, they were looking to bounce back tonight in the final exhibition game of the season. In a 59–43 game, it was a bit close for comfort against Cal State LA. “Were we perfect?” asked Burke. “No, are there still plenty of […]
Former Arizona women’s basketball star Aari McDonald has gone back and forth about the idea of playing overseas during the WNBA offseason. While her first try at it wasn’t a happy time, she has excelled the last two seasons in Australia and China. In 2026, the self-proclaimed “homebody” doesn’t have to go overseas. Instead, she […]
With five games left in the regular season, Arizona needs to win at least two of them in order to become bowl eligible. The first opportunity comes Saturday at Colorado. The Buffaloes (3-5, 1-4 Big 12) just lost 53-7 at Utah last weekend but at home are 3-2 with the losses by one score each […]
It’s been more than seven months since Arizona’s season ended with another trip to the Sweet 16. It was the third time in four years under Tommy Lloyd the Wildcats made it that far, but like the previous NCAA tournaments that was as far as they went. Among those that kept playing after the UA […]
The Arizona Wildcats have found some pretty good success on the recruiting trail this season. They currently have 20 members of the 2026 class and have a pretty good member of the 2028 class as well. On Wednesday night, they added their first 2027 member. Jalani Culpepper, a 2027 athlete from Texas, announced his decision […]
Arizona head coach Rita Stubbs said that Texas Tech was competitive at home, but the Red Raiders came into Wednesday afternoon’s match against the Wildcats with just one conference win and an RPI of 152. Besides, it wasn’t a competitive match. TTU went on huge runs to sweep UA 3-0 (25-14, 25-18, 25-23). While serve […]
Brandon Williams’ first full season in the NBA is off to a shaky start. The former Arizona Wildcats guard, who is now a backup for the Dallas Mavericks, was arrested Saturday for possession of marijuana at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. Williams was traveling through Terminal C when TSA agent noticed a “black container containing […]
The coaches had their say several weeks ago. Now, the media that covers the Big 12 has had a say. For Arizona women’s basketball, the opinions line up with the Wildcats landing 14th among 16 teams in the poll released by the conference on Thursday afternoon. The poll opened several weeks ago, so many may […]
It’ll be another tough week on the court and on the road for the Arizona Wildcats. The team starts the second half of the Big 12 volleyball season with a road game and a home game against a top 15 team just one day apart just like it finished the end of the conference slate. […]
In its quest to rebuild the roster following a disappointing 2024 season, Arizona’s coaching staff left no stone unturned in search of talent. The Wildcats added more than 50 new players, including more than two dozen from the NCAA transfer portal. None of the UA’s portal additions ranked among the top 250 in the country, […]
During each of Tommy Lloyd’s first four seasons it didn’t take much research to figure out who was going to lead Arizona in scoring. Bennedict Mathurin was a future first round NBA pick, Azuolas Tubelis thrived in the Wildcats’ high-low offense and the past two years Caleb Love was going to get his points. But […]
Arizona got last weekend off, its final break before playing five straight games to wrap up the regular season. The same couldn’t be said for Colorado, but maybe it wished it hadn’t played. The Buffaloes (3-5, 1-4 Big 12) were crushed 53-7 at Utah on Saturday, the most lopsided loss of the Deion Sanders era. […]

There probably won’t be any 71-point blowouts come next week. Arizona finished up its preseason exhibition slate with a 113-42 win over Embry-Riddle on Monday night at McKale Center, a far less effortless victory than the one nine days earlier against Saint Mary’s. It was the last tune-up before the regular season opener Nov. 3 […]
Arizona got a much needed week off after back-to-back heartbreaking losses to BYU and Houston, teams that have kept on winning and are a combined 15-1 this season. The focus has fully shifted to this week’s opponent, Colorado, but during the bye the lingering effects of those previous games was still being felt. “They’re pissed […]
Arizona has not been home for a football game in a few weeks, and it will be a little longer before the next one. But when the Wildcats do return to Arizona Stadium it will be for some afternoon delight. The UA’s Homecoming game on Nov. 8 against Kansas will kick off at 1:30 p.m. […]
Arizona is coming off its second bye week and now hits the stretch run with five games in five weeks as it pushes for bowl eligibility. But the UA isn’t the only team or players that fans are interested in. The 21 commits that Arizona has in the 2026 and 2028 (!!) classes are also […]

The official start of the 2025-26 season is just over a week away, but before Arizona gets into the games that count it has one more that doesn’t. The Wildcats host Embry-Riddle on Monday night in their final preseason tuneup. Arizona beat Saint Mary’s 81-68 in its first exhibition on Oct. 18, a game it […]
It’s been the story of the season for Arizona soccer, especially since Big 12 play started. The Wildcats once again put in a solid defensive effort but could get nothing going on the offensive end in a 1-0 loss to No. 22 Colorado. Arizona head coach Becca Moros once again used an unusual lineup, putting […]
