University of Arkansas at Little Rock Athletic Director Chasse Conque is leaving for the same position at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. Conque had been at UALR since January 2015 and will leave later this month.
"Today is very bittersweet," Conque said in a statement released Friday morning by the school. "Over the past four and a half years, I have had the distinct opportunity to lead Little Rock Athletics and am very grateful to have witnessed some transformational years. Our competitive success and record-breaking academic achievements are just the tip of the iceberg.
“I have been blessed with the hardest working staff in the country and some amazingly dedicated coaches that have all worked to enhance the Trojan student-athlete experience.
