The Arizona Wildcats announced Friday that they will name their outdoor practice fields after Dick Tomey, the legendary head coach who passed away in May.
The naming presentation, as well as a dedication, will be completed and take place sometime later this season, according to the school.
The winningest coach in program history, Tomey went 95-64-4 record in 14 seasons at Arizona, including the 1998 season when the Wildcats went 12-1.
Here is what people are saying about the honor:
Athletic director Dave Heeke: “Our Wildcat family is proud to honor Coach Tomey in a very special way.
