LITTLE ROCK - The Little Rock swimming team heads north to face the Razorbacks in Fayetteville at 11:00 a.m. this Saturday, in just the second matchup ever between the two teams. Trojan fans can follow along with the meet live on the MeetMobile app.
Since their last outing against North Texas at home in mid-December, the Trojans have spent the past month preparing for the final two months of the season. The meet against the Razorbacks will be the first of the final three dual meets of the season for Little Rock, as well as the first of two SEC opponents on the slate, before the Missouri Valley Conference Championships begin on Feb. 16.

"The last couple weeks have been an opportunity to ramp up training one more time before we get ready for the end of the season," said head coach
Amy Burgess. "The team is tired but ready to get some racing in on the road. The Razorbacks will be some of the toughest competition we face this season. It's a great opportunity to showcase the state's top two teams!"
Two years ago, Little Rock raced Arkansas for the first time in program history in Fayetteville, dropping the dual 121-161. However, the Razorbacks visited the Donaghey Aquatic Center, the home pool of the Trojans, for the inaugural All-Arkansas invitational this fall. Little Rock finished second to the SEC team and will be looking for a rematch to sharpen their racing skills tomorrow.
