Arizona-Northern Arizona

Arizona forward Ira Lee (11) loses the race to a loose ball to Northern Arizona forward Brooks DeBisschop (22) in the first half of their early season game at McKale Center, Tucson, Ariz., Nov. 6, 2019.

Arizona announced Monday it has rescheduled its NAU game for Dec. 7 at McKale Center, with tip at 7 p.m. on Pac-12 Networks.

UA and NAU signed a three-year contract to have the Lumberjacks become the Wildcats' opening day opponent for the next three seasons, but the scheduled opener this season on Nov. 25 was postponed when the Lumberjacks had a positive COVID test within their program.

Barring further COVID issues, the rescheduled game will now have the Wildcats playing four games over an eight-day period: Their Pac-12 opener on Wednesday against Colorado, a nonconference game against Northern Colorado on Saturday, the NAU game on Dec. 7 and a game with Bakersfield on Dec. 9.
