SAN ANTONIO — Arizona guard Bennedict Mathurin said Wednesday that he has attempted to apologize to a TCU dance team member after a video widely circulated on social media showed the Pac-12 Player of the Year possibly making contact with her after the Wildcats’ second-round victory.
Mathurin didn’t say what response, if any, he got from an email he sent through the TCU athletic department when trying to relay his apology. He wouldn’t answer a follow-up question about whether he recalled touching the dancer when leaving the floor after the overtime victory over the Horned Frogs on Sunday night.
Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke said in a statement earlier Wednesday that Mathurin didn’t recall any contact.
