FAYETTEVILLE -- The grand reopening of weight rooms and training rooms across the SEC and in other areas of the country takes place today as an early monumental step toward the return of college sports competition this fall.
At the University of Arkansas, athletes in football, men's and women's basketball, soccer, volleyball and men's and women's cross country have been trickling back to town for a couple of weeks in advance of the re-opening.
College athletic facilities across the country have been shuttered to team activities since March 13 in an effort to slow the spread of coronavirus, the pandemic that has been gripping the globe for nearly three months.
