Aari McDonald and the seventh-ranked Arizona women's basketball team will open their season Nov. 29 with a home game against NAU. No tipoff time or television assignment has been announced yet.
Coach Adia Barnes has taken to social media in the last week in search of nonconference opponents to fill the Wildcats' schedule after two opponents backed out because of COVID-19 concerns. NAU was always believed to be on Arizona's schedule, but a date was not finalized until recently.
After Nov. 29, the Wildcats' next scheduled game is Dec. 4 against UCLA. For now, the Lumberjacks are the only nonconference game on Arizona's schedule.
