The Arkansas Football Coaches Association, which represents approximately 750 high school coaches throughout Arkansas held its first recruiting expo Monday at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock.

More than 20 college coaches mixed and mingled with more than 100 high school coaches in hopes of finding athletes they could recruit.

The college coaches were able to gather athletic, academic, contact information along with highlight videos on prospective athletes. Football Bowl Subdivision schools like Arkansas and Arkansas State aren't allowed to attend such events, other divisions have no restrictions.

Atkins Coach Charlie Sorrells said the event was a success.
