April 5- Arizona has named the side for a major in-state battle, taking on Arizona State in Tempe tomorrow in the team's final regular season match.
The Wildcats are coming off a strong performance in a hard-fought 17-13 loss to Claremont, with standouts from that day like Molly Chisholm and Grace Uso looking to build on the momentum the team is gathering under Head Coach Tatum Quimby. Up front, Aspen Wrzesinske is relishing the opportunity for the team to continue that build. "I am very excited for this game. After our game against them in the preseason and the progress we have made it will be awesome to see everyone's improvements" said the standout front rower.
"In our last game against Claremont, we demonstrated great adaptation in defense and moved the ball quickly" said Amelie Umholtz who continues to hold down the #9 jersey, a key role not just as on-field but also as a team leader.
While the preseason contest went the way of the Sun Devils, the Wildcats have made huge strides under Coach Quimby and staff, with a chance at a strong finish as the program continues to grow and show the promise that has so many Wildcat fans excited for the future.
