TUCSON, Ariz. — Tuesday morning’s Fall Camp practice marked the first day of full pads for the Wildcats, and with it came live tackling and a tangible sense of excitement.
Both sides of the ball struck blows, literally and figuratively, in 11-on-11 drills spread across the South Beach field and the Dick Tomey Practice Field. Freshman running back Rayshon Luke showed off with a pair of impressive runs, while the defense scooped up a fumble and nearly forced two more turnovers.
Now that the Wildcats are in full pads, preparation for week one can begin in earnest. Arizona’s next big mile marker will come on Saturday, Aug. 13, their first scrimmage. The team will enjoy a day off on Wednesday before getting back to action on Thursday morning.
