Arizona’s Olson takes leave

Arizona coach Lute Olson is taking a leave of absence for unspecified personal reasons.

In a statement issued by his public relations firm on Sunday, the 73-year-old Hall of Famer said the matter was not health related.

“For the past 25 years, I have always given 110 percent to the team and this job,” Olson said. “In light of this personal matter, I feel it is in the best interest of the team and the University of Arizona to take a leave of absence.”

Olson said he wanted to “reassure everyone that this isn’t a health scare, but rather a personal matter that needs my undivided attention.”

The specific reason was not given.

“I want to thank everyone in advance for their support and prayers and request that the media respect my family’s privacy during this time,” he said.

Assistant coach Kevin O’Neill will assume Olson’s duties in his absence.

Arizona defeated Concordia 68-50.
