No. 8 Gonzaga Bulldogs vs. No. 16 Arizona Wildcats college basketball

Coach Sean Miller and the Arizona bench are befuddled by a non-call during the second half.

As part of the trip, the donors stayed along with the team at a top Beverly Hills hotel (though they had to pay for that bill themselves), and were treated to a reception with “heavy hors d’oeuvres,” according to UA associate AD Mike Ketcham, who heads the men’s basketball portion of the Wildcat Club.

In addition, Arizona AD Greg Byrne, UA president Ann Weaver Hart and Miller gave brief talks to the group.

And at the game, since it was being held at a neutral site, the donors were able to sit in prime lower level seats right behind the UA bench.
