Fans started filing in early to welcome the Arizona Wildcats back from their historic run to the national championship game. People who had missed being able to cheer the team on all year were joined by the Tucson Mayor Regina Romero to celebrate what this group of women had accomplished and what is yet to come.
For two hours, they sat in the sun at Arizona Stadium on what was supposed to be the hottest day so far in Tucson this year. The Final Four game against Connecticut playing on the scoreboard kept them entertained as they waited for news that the bus had arrived after the Wildcats’ flight was delayed.
