🔺 Time To Spike. Arkansas volleyball’s second-ever Sweet 16 match will be a SEC showdown in Lincoln, NE against the Kentucky Wildcats, a team the Razorbacks have played twice this season already. It’s the fifth-ever neutral site match between the two programs, and the first in the NCAA Tournament.
The Volley Hogs will attempt to move on to the Elite 8 at 3:30pm this afternoon, with the match broadcasted live on ESPNU. Get ready for the match the right way by taking a deep dive into the program’s quick turnaround under the leadership of 2023 AVCA South Region Coach of the Year Jason Watson.
🔺 Caps Off. For the third-consecutive year, University of Arkansas student-athletes have combined to earn the top graduation success rate in the history of the Razorback program. Razorback student-athletes that entered school in 2016 earned a GSR of 88 percent, the highest GSR in school history, besting the previous program record of 87 percent accomplished last year. It marks the eighth-consecutive year that the GSR has been 78 percent or higher with this year’s GSR ranking reaching 80 percent or better for the sixth time.
🔺 Cajun Kajin. The Arkansas men’s tennis program has officially added Louisiana transfer Karlo Kajin ahead of the 2023-24 men’s tennis season. Karlo, a native of Croatia, joins the Razorbacks as a graduate transfer after playing four seasons as a mainstay in the singles and doubles lineup for the Ragin’ Cajuns. Last season, he led the team in wins with 12 in singles and 11 in doubles. Learn more about the newest Razorback here.
🔺 Vote For The Best. Pro Bowl voting for the NFL is open, and former Arkansas center Frank Ragnow deserves your support. The former Razorback is having a spectacular sixth season with the now 9-3 Detroit Lions. He ranks third among all centers in Pro Football Focus’ offense grade (84.2), fourth in run blocking grade (85.3), and hasn’t surrendered a sack in pass protection in 11 games played. Vote for Ragnow and all your favorite NFL Hogs here.
🔺 Remember Me? A WNIT rematch is in store for Arkansas women’s basketball as Louisiana Tech makes its way back to Bud Walton Arena tonight, 266 days since that game. This will be the Hogs’ second of three straight home games, and fifth-ever matchup against the Lady Techsters.
The game will tipoff at 7pm and will be broadcast on SEC Network Plus.
