UCLA Women’s Basketball Announces Home-and-Home Series With Arizona for 2026-27 Season
UCLA Women’s Basketball has announced it will reunite with the University of Arizona in a home-and-home series during the 2026-27 season. The first game will take place at Pauley Pavilion presented by Wescom Financial as part of the non-conference schedule. This upcoming matchup will be the first meeting between the two teams since UCLA officially joined the Big Ten Conference for the 2024-25 academic year.
This home-and-home series with Arizona mirrors UCLA’s current partnership with Tennessee. The Bruins will travel to Knoxville in 2026 to complete that home-and-home, marking their first visit to Thompson-Boling Arena at Food City Center in nearly two decades. The last time the Bruins played at that venue was during the 2009-10 season.
UCLA leads the all-time series against Arizona by a strong 66-24 margin. It includes a 2-0 sweep during the 2023-24 season. Under the guidance of the Michael Price Family UCLA Women’s Head Basketball Coach Cori Close, the Bruins have posted an impressive 19-6 record against the Wildcats. They include three consecutive victories.
