🎙️ BACK ON FAMILIAR GREENS

The LPGA Walmart NWA Championship is kicking off this weekend, and we have three Hog Pod episodes with former players who will be in the field—Maria Fassi, Gaby Lopez and Brooke Matthews.

🏌️‍♀️ Hear Maria Fassi discuss back in 2019 why winning the NCAA title at home was so important to her, and where her confidence comes from as an emerging LPGA star.

🏌️‍♀️ Golf used to be an afterthought for Brooke Matthews, but when she committed to the sport, the ceiling was raised exponentially. Hear this 2021 interview with the former Hog who shattered the 54-hole NCAA scoring record by a whopping six shots.

🏌️‍♀️ Gaby Lopez’s story is one of determination and success. And there’s nobody better to help tell it than Arkansas women’s golf coach Shauna Taylor. Hear their conversation from last year.

📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Always A Classic. It’s time for the 80th-ever meeting between Arkansas and Texas A&M on the football field. The Southwest Classic is once again in AT&T Stadium in Fort Worth, TX for a battle between the 2-2 Razorbacks and the 3-1 Aggies. Arkansas holds a 42-34-3 advantage all-time against Texas A&M, and is 1-1 in the last two games.

Kickoff is at 11am on SEC Network. Be sure to tune in to HogsPlus.com for the Wooo Pig Pregame Show featuring Tera Talmadge, Quinn Grovey, and exclusive Hogs+ content to get you ready for the game!

🔺 Lethal Weapon. Arkansas freshman tight end Luke Hasz has been named the John Mackey Tight End of the Week after becoming the first Arkansas freshman since 2012 to log 100+ receiving yards with multiple touchdowns in a game. The Bixby, Okla., product was lethal vs. LSU last Saturday, catching a team-leading six passes for a team-high 116 yards and two touchdowns to become the first Arkansas freshman to record multiple receiving touchdowns in a game since TE Hunter Henry at LSU in 2013.

🔺 Spicy Run. Arkansas cross country is back at it today with the annual Chile Pepper Festival. The 22nd-ranked men’s team will race among a field of 32 teams on its home course at Agri Park this afternoon with a start time of 5 p.m. in the McDonnell Memorial 8,000m race. The 20th-ranked women’s squad will compete over a 5,000m distance at Agri Park on Friday with a 4:30 p.m. start time among a field of 35 teams in the Harter’s Habanero race in the Chile Pepper Festival.

🔺 Muss See TV. Arkansas and the Southeastern Conference announced the 2023-24 men’s basketball television designations and game times. Arkansas will play on the ESPN family of networks 16 times, be televised on SEC Network eight times and appear on CBS versus Kentucky in Lexington (Mar. 2). In addition, Arkansas announced that two games of interest – the Purdue exhibition game and the Razorbacks’ game versus Lipscomb in North Little Rock – will be broadcast on SEC Network Plus and the Watch ESPN App. Click here to view the full broadcast schedule.

🔺 No-No In CoMo. Seventh-ranked Arkansas soccer stayed perfect in SEC play Thursday evening with a 1-0 victory at Missouri. Ava Tankersley, a Missouri native herself, scored the match’s lone goal via a penalty kick in the 13th minute, and Freshman goalkeeper Phoebe Carver notched her third shutout in as many career starts.

The Hogs have now won five matches in a row and move to 8-2-1 on the year with a clean 4-0-0 record in league play.
