It was around this time two years ago when the Mulcahy Stadium pitch was in such dire shape that Arizona soccer was forced to hold preseason training, an exhibition, and even some regular-season practices at Kino Sports Complex.

That’s just what they do.
“We founded the program on being able to think outside the box and overcome obstacles and present things differently,” head coach Tony Amato said.
