UA's top student-athletes and unsung heroes shine at CATSYS awards show

The stars were out for Arizona Athletics as it hosted the second annual CATSYS Award Banquet on April 16 to honor all student-athletes Monday inside the McKale Center. A red carpet welcomed the athletes to the event, with recording artist Kelley James playing live music for the second year in a row.

The event was hosted by former Wildcat basketball players Richard Jefferson and Miles Simon, along with returning host Chris ‘Geeter’ McGee. Jefferson just wrapped up his 18th NBA season with the Denver Nuggets, while Simon’s season also just ended as an assistant coach for the Los Angeles Lakers.
