Arizona will face Baylor in Dallas, Texas on December 18 as part of the Pac-12 Coast to Coast Challenge, but will be the only ranked opponent the Wildcats face before conference play begins. may become. The only other major conference opponent the team faces is Kansas. Last season, the Jayhawks finished with his 21-10 record, but it was his second time in the past decade to finish above . His one other opportunity was in 2019-20 when he was in the 15-14 season.
The Wildcats will play a total of six games at the McCale Center this season after playing just five games at home during last year’s non-conference season. They run his 5 contests on the street or on neutral sites.
After hosting Lumberjack, Arizona will host Northridge, CA, Loyola Marymount, and Long Beach. LMU has a history of beating both UCLA and Arizona in 2018-19, giving the Pac-12 team trouble. However, the Lions have not had a winning record since that year and in 2021-22 he will finish the 11-19 season.
Long Beach State is just the opposite. Beach earned his WNIT berth last season with a 19-9 record. This was his first winning season since his 23-11 run in the 2016-17 season.
The Wildcats will still participate in the Thanksgiving tournament this season, but it won’t be a major event like the Paradise Jam. Instead, they stay close to home and visit the University of San Diego’s Dana on Mission Bay Holiday Tournament. Arizona will face Cal Baptist and USD on November 25th and he’s on the 26th.
That concludes the California slate for the Wildcats. The team will head to Albuquerque from his December 4th to face the New Mexico Lobos.
Arizona rounds out its home ground by hosting Kansas and Texas before moving to Lone Star State for the biggest game of the non-conference season. The Wildcats will face Baylor on December 18 in the Pac-12 Coast to Coast Challenge. This game is part of a doubleheader and airs on ESPN or ESPN2. Three days later, Arizona visits his UT-Arlington to end things.
There was hope that Arizona would host Texas this season. The Wildcats had a home-and-home deal with the Longhorns. The first match he played was in Austin on November 18, 2019. Ahri Macdonald.
The return game was originally postponed to 2020-21 due to the pandemic. Last season, he was postponed again at the Pac-12 Coast to Coast Challenge in Las Vegas as the two teams were due to go head-to-head. Arizona had to withdraw from that game due to his COVID-19 in the program.
Without a game against Texas, the Wildcats will be pretty overwhelmed with their non-conference schedule. Baylor’s game will be a major event, but it’s unlikely anyone else scheduled will help Arizona’s NET rankings. You should expect to build a solid resume.
