Arizona head coach Adia Barnes thought she could use the 11-day absence of games to practice and improve. While the Wildcats did some of that, they also dealt with yet more injuries that kept players out.
“It’s funny because we need to get healthy, but then we had people out with concussions,” Barnes said. “So it didn’t even really benefit us that much. We weren’t like full days of a ton of practices.”
In the future, Barnes will have one more player to help in those practices should injuries pop up again. Arizona track and field thrower Erin Tack was added to the roster as a walk-on on Saturday.
