Cats Nipped in Regional Final

The Wildcats' run to the Final Four ended with a heartbreaker to Illinois, sending Arizona home after squandering a 15 point lead in just 4 minutes. It was a difficult loss to take, especially for seniors Frye and Stoudamire, the first Wildcat seniors to not make it to a Final Four since 1993. The lllini did not quit, and deserve their number 1 seed and national ranking. What an amazing game to watch, and the team with the most Final Four-titude won it.
