Here are notes and takeaways from the Wildcats' latest session. 

* USC transfer wide receiver DJ Jordan had arguably his best practice of the spring. In a one-on-one drill, Jordan caught a touchdown from quarterback Noah Fifita with freshman cornerback Xaier Hiler in coverage. Jordan was on the winning end of multiple one-on-one matchups with defensive backs. Jordan also had a first-down catch on a slant route in the final team period. 

* Fifita threw a 43-yard touchdown pass in the left corner of the end zone to redshirt junior wide receiver Tre Spivey. Fifita, entering his second year in offensive coordinator Seth Doege's system, is having a strong spring — connecting with multiple receivers on corner routes, posts, slants, fades near the sideline and threading passes through defenders. Fifita's spring isn't unblemished considering he's thrown at least two interceptions in team periods, but he's been dealing in the pocket and on rollouts. 

* Wyoming transfer cornerback Tyrese Boss lunged for a pass breakup while covering wide receiver Chris Hunter. Boss has established himself as a potential starter at cornerback — on the opposite side of Jay'Vion Cole.  

* With the entire team surrounding him and attempting to distract him, Arizona junior kicker Michael Salgado-Medina ended practice with a 32-yard field goal. Salgado-Medina hasn't missed a field goal in a team period this spring. 

* Former Arizona defensive line coach Rich Ellerson, who coached the iconic UA "Desert Swarm" defense under the late Dick Tomey, attended practice. Ellerson reunited with former Wildcats Barrett Baker and Brandon Sanders on the sidelines on Tuesday. Ellerson coached two College Football Hall of Famers: Tedy Bruschi and Rob Waldrop. Ellerson was the defensive coordinator of Arizona's 12-1 team that won the Holiday Bowl in 1998. Ellerson mentored Arizona head coach Brent Brennan at Cal Poly. Ellerson coached Cal Poly from 2001-08. Brennan was an offensive assistant at Cal Poly from 2001-04.
