Photo by Chris Coduto/Getty Images Caleb Love put together a tremendous season with Arizona, one that earned him Pac-12 Player of the Year honors. It didn’t end well, though, with arguably the worst shooting performance of his career in the Sweet 16 loss to Clemson. Not exactly the way one wants to end their career. And it just might not be. Love has declared for the NBA Draft for the second time, but as he did after his junior year at North Carolina he’s retained his college eligibility. He has until May 29 to decide whether to remain in the draft or withdraw and return to the UA for a second ..read more

Arizona Athletics Win enough and they’ll start to notice. An 11-game win streak, which is currently longest in the country, was too much for college baseball experts to ignore. Arizona has earned its first national rankings since 2022. The Wildcats (21-13) are No. 21 in D1Baseball’s Top 25, where they last appeared just over two years ago, while the USA Today Coaches Poll has them just outside at No. 26. On its longest win streak since 2012, Arizona has swept its last three weekend opponents including three over Louisiana Tech at Hi Corbett. The middle game of that series, on Saturday night, s ..read more

Photo by Bruce Yeung/Getty Images This could be the wildest portal window yet Here we go again. The NCAA transfer portal re-opens on April 16 for college football, a 15-day window that happens to fall right in the middle of spring practice for Arizona and many other programs. And though it’s unlikely to result in as many players entering across the country as during the 45-day period at the end of the regular season, the anticipation is for mass chaos. “I think there could be some really interesting movement in college football,” UA coach Brent Brennan said. “This situation we’re in, that ever ..read more

Arizona Athletics That’s kind of a good omen After the late drama of the night before, another game just over 12 hours later had all the makings of a hangover for Arizona. Instead it was like every other game the past three weeks: a win. The Wildcats beat Louisiana Tech 5-2 on Sunday afternoon at Hi Corbett Field for their 11th consecutive victory, extending the longest active win streak in college and matching the program’s best in-season run since 2012. That one came at the tail end of the UA’s last NCAA title, when it won its regular-season finale against ASU and then bulldozed its way thro ..read more
