Both Arizona basketball programs are hosting Utah and Colorado this week, a rarity for the Wildcats and a challenge for the staff that works at McKale Center.
Justin Spears It’s not often fans of both Arizona basketball programs can attend games at McKale Center on back-to-back-to-back-to-back days.
People are also reading… The Arizona men’s and women’s basketball teams lead the Pac-12 in attendance; the women draw an average of 5,108 spectators, while the men bring 13,992 per contest. Per the average McKale Center crowds this season, over 38,000 people are expected at Arizona’s arena in this four-day stretch.
The most imperative tasks? The two S’s and two “propers”: staffing, supplies, proper rest and proper coordination. Mason has two additional days on the docket to staff A-Team security guards, police officers, plumbers, custodians, in-game operations workers and interns, who can only work 25 hours in a week since they’re students.
Unfortunately for the UA, the Arizona men’s basketball game against Colorado on Saturday at 6 p.m. will be televised on ESPN2 rather than Pac-12 Networks, which had UA-Utah on Thursday and will air both women’s games this week. So the Pac-12 Networks broadcast truck will have to park overnight somewhere in Tucson while the ESPN truck can operate Saturday.
"They can schedule their weekends around Arizona sporting events. As much as it is sports, it’s their entertainment money at work. It gives our fans something to look forward to all week long and just be saturated with sports.”
