The last competition for Arizona in the 2024-25 season was June 15, when baseball was eliminated from the College World Series in Omaha. The first action for a Wildcat squad in 2025-26 squad will come in early August when soccer visits NAU for an exhibition, with volleyball following a few weeks later and football getting into action on Aug. 30 against Hawaii.
The time in between can seem like forever for UA fans, which is why we try to fill that void each summer with a look at how each athletic program is doing. This is our Taking Stock series, which over the previous three weeks analyzed the condition of each Wildcat discipline.
The 2024-25 academic year, which saw Arizona move into the Big 12 Conference after 45 years as a member of the Pac-12, was overall a good one. The Wildcats won conference tournament titles in baseball, women’s golf and men’s tennis while making the conference tourney finals in men’s basketball and softball. Volleyball won the NIVC title and triathlon took home the national title.
