Barnhill Arena has been host to one of the best teams in the nation all fall. Now, into winter, nothing is likely to change.
The Arkansas gymnastics team takes over Barnhill this month fresh on the heels of Razorbacks volleyball. The Hogs are set for an Elite Eight match against Nebraska on Saturday and the gymnastics team could be right behind them after earning a preseason No. 15 ranking.
Arkansas finished last year in 17th after making their 19th consecutive regional where they set school records in team score and floor score.
Coach Jordyn Wieber has had Arkansas in the preseason top-15 in each of the last four years and she has had individual gymnasts make the NCAA Championships each year. Last year, it was Norah Flatley and Lauren Williams.
Williams is back to lead the team in her sophomore season, which the public can get a glimpse at Sunday, December 17 in the Gymback Preview at Barnhill. The regular season begins January 12 at home against Georgia.
