Beach Volleyball Reunion Recap
This year, The A-Club welcomed back our Arizona Beach Volleyball Letterwinners to celebrate their 10-year reunion! Former players, coaches, and support staff that helped build this program came back to campus to support our current team at Bear Down Beach! It was great to see so many of our Beach Volleyball Letterwinners back on campus sharing memories of their time at the U of A and creating new memories as alumni.
Football Alumni Weekend!
Football Alumni Weekend 2023 was a hit! Over 200 Arizona Football Letterwinners returned to campus to reconnect with teammates and support our current players at the Spring Game April 15. This year, the Spring Game captains were Football Letterwinners Rob Gronkowski and Chris Gronkowski. We also welcomed back Football Letterwinners Antoine Cason and Chris McAlister as the honorary defensive coordinators. Thank you to all our Football Letterwinners that came back. We look forward to seeing you back at Arizona Stadium this season!
CATSYS 2023
The annual CATSYS Awards show celebrates the athletic and academic accomplishments of our current student-athletes. Everyone is dressed to impress for this fun-filled night that celebrates all our Arizona Athletics sports teams. This year, your hosts for CATSYS were Football Letterwinner Ka’Deem Carey (’12) and former Basketball Manager, Todd Walsh (’86). Todd and Ka’Deem did a great job keeping the showing going and bringing the energy.
