Arizona soccer notebook: On replacing a legend, recruits, style of play, and more

Last year wasn’t the easiest for anyone in the Arizona soccer program. Former head coach Tony Amato left for Florida and was not replaced until June 16, 2021, just over two months before the fall season was to begin. It left first-year head coach Becca Moros with little time to get to know her players and implement a vastly new system for the 2021 season.

It was a difficult year as far as the record goes. The Wildcats finished 5-13 and only won two Pac-12 matches. Still, Moros thinks it went as well as it could because of the kind of players Amato recruited to the program.
