The Wildcats struggled through a sluggish game with 10 official reviews, particularly in the second quarter where they only scored six points. Junior guard Sumayah Sugapong hit a crucial 3-pointer with 7:38 remaining that put Arizona ahead for good, igniting the McKale Center crowd.
'What a way to wrap up the regular home season,' head coach Becky Burke said after the victory. 'This fan base stayed true to us this year, and it was absolutely a difference maker.' The win provided a fitting send-off for Arizona's seniors in front of their home fans.
