Tigers, Bulldogs on Deck for Razorback Volleyball

Arkansas volleyball has a busy weekend ahead as the Hogs have a pair of matches against the Missouri Tigers and Mississippi State Bulldogs on Friday and Sunday.

The first match of the slate for the Razorbacks is at Barnhill Arena on Friday against Missouri at 7 p.m. Both teams are currently 4-2 in conference play, Arkansas holds a 14-4 record overall, Mizzou 13-5. The Hogs are looking to snap a two-match losing streak while the Tigers have won four in a row.

It will be the team’s Cause Match, and fans are encouraged to bring non-perishable items for a Food Drive. Those who donate will be entered to win a signed rally towel.

Assistant coach and Arkansas great Jill Gillen will also be signing autographs from 6-6:30 and again postgame.

Following their tilt with the Tigers, the Hogs head to Starkville, Miss. for a Sunday match against Mississippi State at 2 p.m. The Bulldogs are coming off a 3-1 victory over in-state rival Ole Miss and are currently 2-5 in the SEC, 8-7 overall.
