After Arizona’s 85–80 victory over TCU on Sunday, a video surfaced on social media showing Arizona star Bennedict Mathurin celebrating the win with his arms spread out, and as he heads back to to the locker room, his left hand approaches a TCU cheerleader’s chest.
On Wednesday, Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke addressed the incident, saying Mathurin has reached out to TCU to apologize.
“Shortly after returning to Tucson, I was notified that people on social media were claiming a video clip showed Bennedict Mathurin may have made physical contact with a TCU student while walking off the court,” Heeke said in the statement, via ESPN.
