FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas athletics director Hunter Yurachek was presented Wednesday with the Game Changer of the Year Award by First Tee-Northwest Arkansas.
Randy Hurban, CEO of First Tee-Northwest Arkansas, said the award is an adult version of an award the organization presents to its students once each month.
"We award it to kids that exemplify great core values and character-trait skills," Hurban said.
"We want to make (Yurachek) Arkansas' game changer of the year because he's exemplifying the same kinds of traits and values we look for in our kids.
"That's sort of our mission: building game changers.
