Matchup with ASU marred by schedule flaw

Feb. 24 was a date that every member of the Arizona Lacrosse team had marked on their calendars. It was going to be a chance to play in Arizona Stadium in front of a larger crowd, most of whom would be parents visiting for the team's annual family weekend.

So much for planning. The Laxcats will not step foot on the turf at Arizona Stadium this weekend while UA officials install a new irrigation system.

Rather, the team will return to where they've played all year - a soccer field with one set of aluminum bleachers. Laxcat family weekend begins at 1 p.m. at Laxcat Coliseum on 15th Street between Plumer Street and Tucson Boulevard.
