Arizona Women’s Basketball continues their solid start to the 2016-17 season, as they wrap-up non-conference play, defeating Portland State.

In her first season coaching with the Wildcats, Adia Barnes has guided the Women’s Basketball team to a very respectable 9-2 start. Arizona improved upon their record, following the victory over Portland State on Tuesday evening.

Entering the year with fairly low expectations, it’s safe to assume, not many anticipated the Wildcats to have a great year. The Pac-12 coaches predicted that Arizona would end up last in the conference. Before accepting her first head coaching job, Barnes, the former Wildcat standout knew her work would be cut out for her.

Arizona finished the 2015-16 season with a 13-19 record overall, finishing in 11th place within the conference. Also, please keep in mind Arizona started the year 9-3, before losing 16 of their next 20 games.
