With mostly morning practices during the preseason, Arizona is hoping to avoid both the extreme midday heat and Tucson’s summer rainstorms. It went 1 for 2 on Day 1 of training camp.
A light rain fell at the outset of Arizona’s first workout Wednesday morning, with the clouds going away for the second half of the 100-minute practice. Despite the access to an indoor field, though, the team trained outside the entire time with most of the activity on a second grass field set up just south of the beach volleyball courts.
Expect the Wildcats to spend most of camp on those outdoor fields, coach Jedd Fisch said, as the UA prepares for a season opener Sept.
