The Arizona Wildcats’ nonconference schedule has undergone yet another COVID-related change, in this case replacing a replacement team with an opponent that was on the original slate.
Arizona will host UTEP on Saturday at McKale Center, taking the spot briefly held by New Mexico State.
NMSU—which was only added to the schedule last week—had to pause its program after a positive COVID-19 test within its program. The Aggies had been the replacement for UTEP, whom Arizona was supposed to host on Nov. 29 only to have the Miners also pause activity due to COVID cases.
