Tetairoa McMillan Sets Arizona Record in Season-Opening Win
Tucson, AZ– Arizona’s season opener against New Mexico turned into a showcase for wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan, who delivered a record-breaking performance in the Wildcats’ 61-39 victory. The junior wideout, who is already generating buzz as a top prospect for the 2025 NFL Draft, set a new Arizona single-game receiving record with 10 catches for 304 yards and four touchdowns.
From the first quarter, McMillan made his presence known. His second touchdown of the night was a 17-yard strike, where he used sharp route-running to turn a routine out route into a score. But it was his third touchdown that left everyone talking—a 78-yard catch-and-run that highlighted his football IQ, as he found the soft spot in New Mexico’s zone and turned it into a game-changing play.
McMillan’s 304 receiving yards not only set a new school record but also sent a clear message: he’s one of the most dangerous playmakers in college football. With performances like this, McMillan is poised to lead Arizona’s offense to new heights this season and cement his status as a top NFL Draft prospect.
