Last year, both the head coaches of Arizona and Louisville took to social media trying to find non-conference games. At the time, UA head coach Adia Barnes said it didn’t make sense for her team to travel east during the pandemic to make a game between the two programs work. Next season, fans of women’s college basketball will finally get to see that matchup.
The Cardinals and Wildcats will play a neutral site game at The Invitational at the Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on Nov. 12. That contest will be part of a double-header with South Carolina and South Dakota that will be featured on the ESPN Networks.
