- They don’t have to be all-business. On a typical Arizona road trip, players barely have time to walk around town, with meetings, study sessions and most meals held in team hotels on top of daily practices.
But last week, the Wildcats spent parts of three straight days at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, learning about history and military life, while preparing to win a Top 25 showdown.
Turned out to be a pretty good way to spend the week.
“It was great all around,” Miller said. “First of all, this has been an incredible learning experience for our team. If you ever want to know what our Armed Forces do, veterans, come to Pearl Harbor.
“That in and of itself made this trip worth it. And we knew we were playing against a quality team and program.
“Whether we won or lost we were going to grown and get better from this. The fact that we were able to win makes the trip even nicer.”
