The back of Arizona’s warm-up t-shirts read “#LeavingALegacy.” From the first meeting with the media this summer, Adia Barnes and her players have made that their calling card. It’s not just about today, this season. It’s about building for the future.
The WNIT is part of that project. Three postseason games. Three victories. It hadn’t happened for Arizona women’s basketball since 1996 when they won the WNIT. Could they push it to four? The Wyoming Cowgirls stood in the way, but not for very long.
Arizona dominated in a 67-45 victory in front of 7,717 fans at McKale Center.
