Even though most of us are off for the weekend, UA sports continues to trudge on. Volleyball is taking part in the Plaza Hotel Thanksgiving Classic. Action takes place Friday at 7 p.m. and Saturday morning at 10:45 with the Wildcats taking on Hawaii, Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo, and Texas-El Paso. Tickets can be picked up by calling the McKale Center at 621-2287 or by stopping by. All students get in free with their valid student ID card. Some quality volleyball will be played as teams close out their seasons.

Women's basketball will also be playing Saturday night at 7 in McKale. They will be taking on the New Mexico Lobos in a game with bragging rights on the line.

Men's basketball is also in action, although they aren't in town. The Wildcats look to dominate the big apple kicking off with a game against Notre Dame and culminating in a Friday showdown in the consolidation game if UA loses, and the championship game if they win. Wednesday's game starts at 4 p.m. and will be shown on ESPN. Cheer on the basketball team as they take Madison Square Garden by storm.
