New Leadership and New Faces

Six months ago the Wildcats capped off with one of the most impressive March Madness runs in NCAA History.

Walking around campus, the celebrations continue with students adorned in championship gear gleefully high-fiving Kris Jenkins on their way to class. On social media, students relive the last 4.7 seconds of the game by posting pictures and video from Houston to celebrate “the six-month championship anniversary.”

The Cinderella-like story marked the end of the Ryan Arcidiacono-Daniel Ochefu era, along with the effervescent presence of the Bench Mob. With team leaders Arcidiacono with the San Antonio Spurs and Ochefu with the Wizards, fans are eager to know who will step up this season.
