One of the greatest examples of the Wildcat Way, Tanya Hughes took home seven All-American nods and four All-Pac-10 selections in her collegiate career, as well as consecutive CoSIDA Academic All-America Honors and the 1994 NCAA Woman of the Year award. Hughes also took her talents to the international stage, earning medals at the World University Games and Pan-Am Junior Championships before competing for Team USA at the 1992 Olympic games. Now a member of the board of directors for the Institute for Sport and Social Justice, she continues to embody the Conference of Champion’s and Arizona’s spirit of excellence.
