Arkansas' Bryana Hunter moves the ball during an exhibition game against Arkansas-Little Rock on Sunday, Aug. 8, 2021, in Fayetteville.
FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas soccer coach Colby Hale might as well write Bryana Hunter’s name in Sharpie on the team sheet.
Dating to 2019, she has made 56 consecutive starts at center back and led the team in minutes played each season since her sophomore campaign. That is quite the feat for any athlete — let alone one who struggled to get on the field for her youth team.
“I usually subbed in and played around 10 to 15 minutes for my club,” Hunter said.
