Not only did the team play well last night, but they looked really good beating the Hawkeyes. I was so proud of our coaches and players as they got a huge win for the program last night on ESPN, but I was also proud of our equipment staff too! They work very hard too, and that hard work paid off for us last night. Not only did the team play well, but everything went very smooth for the equipment staff.
Now it is time to get to work on preparing for the Cal Golden Bears. After a tough loss against Nevada this past Friday night, the Bears will come to Arizona Stadium wanting to knock us off! Just as we always do each day, the managers will try to set the tempo for practice by hustling during all the drills so the team can get as many reps as possible. Tempo is always important each day at practice, and the managers will have to focus on making sure they can do their part in helping the team have good practices.
It was a fun night last night, but the icing on the cake will be a win against our first Pac 10 opponent for 2010.
Below are some pictures of the hardest working equipment staff in the country.

What's the reason for not having white/red cleats?
Is it Nike only giving out one color, or is it equipment room space?
