We meet Rudy Gallego, the man who started the University of Arizona's first adaptive sports team, wheelchair basketball.

We head behind the scenes with the ASU women's club hockey team, and also hear about their soon-to-launch counterpart at UA.

Hear about an Arizona community college's surprisingly international soccer roster, then get introduced to an afro-Brazilian martial art.

We hear from a professional opera singer who was also an All-American football player in college.

Rodeo in Arizona, from its roots to its place as a collegiate sport. Plus a trip to the Pac 12 basketball tournament.

Different sports, different generation, but both Daytona 500 Runner-up Alex Bowman and former MLB shortstop Eddie Leon are among the top athletes Tucson has ever produced.

Hey, More Than a Game listeners. Since we're in between seasons of the show, we decided to bring you a bonus episode from one of AZPM's other shows. With college sports getting underway, our public affairs show The Buzz examined why the University of Arizona and Arizona State University are leaving the Pac 12 conference and moving to the Big 12 next year. We're starting to plan season 2 of More Than a Game, and hope to bring you more great Arizona sports stories late this year--maybe early next. But, keep this feed active because we've got some other ideas for bonus episodes yet to come. Thanks for listening!

We then head to Gridley Middle School where Southern Arizona Adaptive Sports is helping students better understand adaptive sports by providing equipment that will allow PE students to play wheelchair basketball.

It's hard for most people to imagine running a marathon. So what's it like to run a race that's nearly ten times that length? Or how about a bike event that stretches across the entire state?

We start with the basics of the University of Arizona's newest scholarship sport, rugby. Then we talk to Jay Dobyns, a former University of Arizona football player who made a name for himself in federal law enforcement, about how the lessons he learned on the grid iron applied once he left the field.
