Women's Empowerment Gymnastics Meet Tonight
Former U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist Head Coach Jordyn Wieber and the No. 16 Razorback Gymnastics team will face off against the No. 19 Minnesota Gophers at 6:45 p.m. today, March 10, inside Bud Walton Arena.
Women's Empowerment Night is a tradition started by Wieber in 2020, the first season of her tenure at Arkansas. It was the first meet of its kind in NCAA Gymnastics and has since inspired similar events at other schools, as well as for more women's programs at the U of A. The evening seeks to recognize women who have paved the way and made an impact in our society and local community. This meet will also serve as Senior Night, in which senior Gymbacks will be recognized at the conclusion of the meet.
There will be cheerleaders, mascots and music, along with plenty of exciting promotions throughout the evening.
Bud Walton Arena doors open at 5:30 p.m., and parking is available in Lot 56 located at the corner on Razorback Road and MLK Boulevard.
