Another season of Arizona vs ASU games are in the books and the Wildcats took home the 2017-18 Territorial Cup Series presented by State Farm.
There is nothing sweeter then beating the team up north they call the ASU Sun Devils. That’s what the Arizona Wildcats sports teams did as a collective unit, beating ASU 11 times this year, to earn themselves their “fifth” Territorial Cup Series Trophy, fourth outright.
ASU had won it the last four seasons, but the Wildcats were able to dig deep till the very end to bring the cup back where it belongs, Tucson baby!

A Pac-12 win, home or away, is always a good feeling, but doing so against your hated, in-state rivals is the best feeling in the world. Established prior to the 2009-2010 season, the Territorial Cup Series, has added extra motivation and incentive for head-to-head match-ups between the hated rivals.
Basketball, football, baseball, softball, volleyball, soccer, swimming, indoor and outdoor track and field, tennis, golf and cross-country are all the sports that make up this series.
This year, it literally came down to the last game between the two schools in baseball. Of all the historic moments between the schools, the Wildcats found a way to “Bear Down” and win it in walk-off fashion in the 11th inning to win the Territorial Cup.
