With the Arizona’s game against Praire View A&M well in hand, Wildcats head coach Adia Barnes wanted to do something for Aari McDonald. With a triple double close, Barnes opted to keep her star guard on the floor until the final buzzer in an 83-48 win.
“I thought that’d be a great thing for her to get,” Barnes said. “Not a lot of people in their lives will ever get a triple double. I’ve never been good enough to get triple doubles. So I was hoping she did it.”
McDonald entered the final quarter with 12 points, six rebounds and 10 assists.
