ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥

College hoops season is around the corner and the ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Wildcats are preparing for their first game. UA will host Western New Mexico on Tuesday for an exhibition. 

The Wildcats will have another exhibition against Chaminade on Nov. 4, before their season opener against Houston Baptist on Nov. 7. 

ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥'s starting backcourt could feature team captain Justin Coleman at point guard and freshman Brandon Williams as the scorer, although he was recruited as a point. 

Coleman, a 5-foot-10 graduate transfer from Samford, and Williams experienced McKale Center's atmosphere as players for the first time during the annual Red-Blue Game. The two met with the media Thursday to discuss their chemistry and established relationship.

Justin Coleman has high expectations for Brandon Williams. “He’s gonna be one of the better scorers to ever play at ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥.â€�
