UA receives lowest athletic score since 1993

Arizona finished No. 36 overall in the NCAA Directors’ Cup standings, a compilation of an athletic department’s total on-field success for 2014-15. It was the lowest finish at Arizona since 1993. The Pac-12 rocked: Stanford, UCLA and USC were 1-2-3. Cal was No. 12 and Oregon was No. 13. The reality of the last decade is that Arizona is no longer an elite program in anything except men’s basketball and women’s golf, but it wouldn’t take much for softball and football to gain that identity.
