The Pima College women’s basketball team finished eighth in the NJCAA Division II National Tournament after a 65:47 loss to Arkansas State University Mid-South on Saturday.
Pimas Sierra Mich’l ended the consolation game with 11 points and 10 rebounds when the Aztecs fell 16: 3 after the first quarter.
The Aztecs, ranked ninth at the event, finish the year 5-5 after having a late start to the season due to COVID-19 logs.
“A lot of people may see eighth place as a disappointment, but I don’t. This team overcame Zoom calls, COVID tests, postponements, cancellations and every other setback and still held out, “said Todd Holthaus, Pima Women’s basketball coach, in a press release.
“The goal is to make it to the Nationals and play on the last day. Mission accomplished.”
