  • Tucson Roundup: Wildcats Host Cyclones, Tech Boom, City Plan Update, and Local Highlights
    2025/01/11
    Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Saturday, January 11, 2025. We're starting off the weekend with a mix of news, updates, and community highlights.

    First off, let's talk about sports. The Iowa State Cyclones women's basketball team is in town today, facing off against the University of Arizona Wildcats at the McKale Center. This is the first time the Cyclones have played in Tucson, and we're excited to see how they match up against our local team[1].

    Moving on to the job market, Tucson is seeing a boom in tech jobs. With over 9,300 tech firms in the city, there are plenty of opportunities for those looking to break into the industry. Major companies like Phantom Space Corp and Radiance Therapeutics are driving growth, and the average tech salary is around $87,000. If you're looking for a new career path, now might be the perfect time to explore the tech scene in Tucson[2].

    In other news, the City of Tucson is working on its General Plan update, which will be on the ballot in November 2025. The plan focuses on goals like fostering inclusive city governance, supporting equitable community development, and promoting carbon reduction. You can read the preliminary draft and provide feedback to help shape the future of our city[3].

    Let's take a look at the weather. Today is expected to be sunny with a high of 68 degrees, making it a great day to get out and enjoy the city. If you're planning on attending the Iowa State vs. Arizona basketball game, you can expect clear skies and comfortable temperatures.

    In local business news, the Eastside Target has reopened after a brief evacuation due to smoke in the store. Additionally, Fourth Avenue shop owners are taking matters into their own hands to address trash issues in the area. And, if you're looking for a unique deal, a local massage institute is offering 1980s tuition rates[5].

    Looking ahead to community events, there are plenty of activities to enjoy in the coming days. Don't forget to "Treecycle" your Christmas trees, and check out the local businesses on Fourth Avenue for some great deals.

    In local school achievements, we want to highlight the hard work of our students and teachers. While we don't have any specific updates today, we're always proud to share the accomplishments of our local schools.

    Finally, in our crime report, a former Border Patrol agent has been sentenced to lifetime probation for child molestation. We urge everyone to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the authorities[5].

    This has been Tucson Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

For those looking for indoor activities, the Tucson Jazz Festival is ongoing, featuring world-class jazz acts. The LightsUp A Festival of Illumination at the Tucson Botanical Gardens is another great option for families[1].

    In local school achievements, the Pima Community College men’s basketball team played their first game of 2025 on Saturday against PHH Prep at the West Campus Aztec Gymnasium, maintaining their undefeated streak[4].

    For a feel-good community story, Dr. Francisco Garcia has been tapped to serve as the chief of staff for University of Arizona President Suresh Garimella, a notable appointment that highlights the university's commitment to leadership[4].

    In crime news, there have been no major incidents reported in the past 24 hours. However, the Tucson Police Department has released information on recent cases, including a homicide on the 4300 Block of S. Pantano Rd. and a fatal pedestrian collision on the 3200 Block of N. 1st Avenue[5].
