Arizona women's basketball has been ranked 13th in the Big 12 Conference preseason media poll, aligning with the coaches' earlier projection for the upcoming season.
The Wildcats enter their first year in the Big 12 after transitioning from the Pac-12. The media poll, released Wednesday, places Arizona near the bottom of the 16-team conference standings.
Key returners for Arizona include sophomores Puff Morris and Molly Ladwig, along with freshman Makayla Presser-Palmer, who were featured in team photos released by Arizona Athletics on October 27.
The regular season is set to begin in November, with Arizona aiming to exceed preseason expectations in its new conference home.
