Arizona volleyball will officially open the 2019 season on Friday morning, when it will host Appalachian State at 10 a.m. MST to begin the Cactus Classic.
The 24th-ranked Wildcats will then take on Loyola Marymount later that evening before facing Samford on Saturday at noon.
Last year, the UA went 3-0 in the Cactus Classic, setting the tone for a season that culminated in a fifth NCAA Tournament appearance in six years.
They will be hoping for more of the same this time around.
Before all of that however, several members of the program addressed the media on Wednesday to talk about the state of the squad as they gear up for the new campaign and the upcoming season as a whole.
