There were changes high above Lute and Bobbi Olson Court Monday afternoon in McKale Center.
Long ropes hung from the rafters lining the perimeter of the arena.
Soon enough, a giant navy blue curtain adorned with Arizona logos will hang from those ropes, cutting off much of the stadium's capacity and bringing the available seating down from its original 14,545 seats to a

Summertime means several things for the Arizona football team. It is time to get stronger, faster and more comfortable with the playbook.
But this off-season, the Wildcats are putting a large emphasis on one specific attribute: team chemistry.
With the arrival of the team's newest recruits as well as the uprising of its newest leaders all occurring during the summer months, the Arizona players have taken the first steps to creating a cohesive team with a calendar full of "team bonding" activities.

Junior pitcher Stephen Strasburg was named to the U.S. Olympic baseball team last Wednesday and will pitch in the Olympics next month in Beijing. Strasburg has dominated international opponents already this summer, boasting a 2-0 record, a 1.33 ERA and a squad leading 39 strikeouts with the U.S. National Collegiate Team. He becomes just the fifth Aztec baseball player in history to play in the Olympics joining Chris Gwynn, Flavio Alfaro, Travis Lee and Royce Ring.
