Once called Point Guard U for its incredible output of top PG talent, Arizona basketball has a long and illustrious heritage that dates back to its time in the Border conference in the early 20th century. Fred Enke, who led the team between 1926 and 1961, was the first Arizona coach to achieve sustained success. His 509 wins is still the second most in the school's history. After Enke stepped down, Arizona switched to the Western Athletic Conference in 1962 and finally the Pac-10 in 1978. Lute Olsen, who coached the team between 1984 and 2007, led the program to a school record of 587 wins and its sole national championship. In the 1997 championship game, No. 4 seed Arizona defeated the No. 1 seed

Kentucky Wildcats

84-79 in overtime to secure the title. Guard Miles Simon was named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player. Arizona returned to the championship game in 2001 but lost to

Duke

82-72. A few years after Lute Olsen retired, Xavier coach Sean Miller was hired to take over as head coach of the Wildcats. He is the third-highest winning coach in Arizona basketball history. If you want to catch a live game, then purchase Arizona Wildcats basketball tickets at StubHub.
