No. 14 Arizona presents these challenges for Lobo women

University of New Mexico women’s basketball coach Mike Bradbury does not buy into the national rankings regarding his team’s Sunday opponent.

Arizona comes into Albuquerque slotted at 14th in one national poll, No. 13 in the other.

No, the word “overated” did not enter into his scouting report on the 6-0 Wildcats. Asked how this Arizona club compares to the one that was ranked No. 6 when it defeated UNM last season in Tucson, Bradbury didn’t hesitate.
