Jacqulynn Nakai, who was an All-American a season ago, will be at the forefront of coach Todd Holthaus' No. 14 Pima Aztecs this year. 

Pima College women’s basketball coach Todd Holthaus, whose team opens the year ranked No. 14 in the NJCAA, was a class act last week after he was not chosen as PCC’s new athletic director. He attended a press session with the new AD, football coach Jim Monaco, and applauded when Monaco was introduced. “Either way, I was going to be OK with the decision,” said Holthaus, whose 2011 team finished No. 2 in the nation. “Jim and I have always gotten along and I respect him a lot. I’m eager to see where he can take our athletic department.”
