FAYETTEVILLE — The Arkansas track and field teams had their outdoor home openers at the Arkansas Spring Invitational on Saturday at John McDonnell Field.
Men’s coach Chris Bucknam described the event as something as a nonconference schedule — “That next week, it starts to get real,” he said Thursday — with other programs getting started with their outdoor work in prior weeks.
"This is our first true meet," women's coach Chris Johnson said. "We've got a lot to get accomplished before the conference meet and seeding for the conference meet.... I think we're off to a great start.
