Resolution for Mayor Jordan and the City Council to recognize the University of Arkansas
Athletic Department and proclaim August 16`h as Razorback Athletics Day in the City of
Fayetteville
The University of Arkansas' remarkable athletics success continues to garner national
recognition. The Razorbacks ranked first in the Southeastern Conference and fifth
nationally in the recently released CBS Sports' Best in College Sports Rankings.
Arkansas was the top performing athletics program in the SEC and one of three conference
programs in the top 10 of the rankings. Razorback athletics has contributed to the quality
of life for Fayetteville economically and entertainment annually. This Resolution for the City
of Fayetteville to recognize the University of Arkansas Athletic Department as a contributing
partner and helps make Fayetteville one of the best places to live and perhaps declare August 161h
Razorback Athletics Day in Fayetteville.
