Agri Park Course

With one of the most successful cross country teams in the nation, there was a need for a permanent place for the University of Arkansas cross country squad to call home. In 1996, the Razorback Cross Country course at Agri Park was developed. Carved out of a portion of the University of Arkansas’ on-campus agricultural area, hence the name Agri Park, the course provides the men’s and women’s cross country teams with an excellent practice and competition area. As one of only a few permanent on-campus cross country venues in the nation, the Razorback Cross Country Course hosted its first events in 1996, serving as the site for the annual Chile Pepper Cross Country Festival and the Arkansas Invitational. Agri Park is extremely versatile. During the Chile Pepper Festival, seven divisions compete on distances ranging from the mile-long fun run for children to the collegiate/open 10,000 meters - all using the same start and finish areas. In 2007 the course hosted the NCAA South Central Regional Championship and it was the first time the event had been held in Fayetteville. A large hometown crowd enjoyed seeing the Razorbacks compete. The NCAA South Central Regional Championships returned to Fayetteville for the 2012 season and again brought good crowds to watch the home squad compete. The course is set up with a wide starting area that leads to a competition area that can be arranged to accommodate many different course lengths, including two-miles, 5,000 meters, 8,000 meters or 10,000 meters while using the same starting area and finish chute. The current course configuration has three distinct areas. The open area of the starting chute is separated from the pond and Razorback Meadow by a grove of trees surrounding the former site of one of Fayetteville’s old eateries, the Farmer’s Daughter. Razorback Meadow is open and relatively flat. The former women’s 5,000-meter trail does not use the Meadow. The men’s 10K, however, snakes through three groves of trees in the Meadow. The pond section has more contour as the trail rises up along the rim of the course’s water feature. For women, both the oneand two-mile markers for a 5,000-meter race are in the pond area. The finish chute is shaded by a row of trees separating it from the starting line area. For the spectators, it is a great venue as you can watch most of the race from the hilltop near the finishing area. For the runners, the fast course can include challenges such as a constantly changing terrain ranging from an open field to a covered forest-like area and wooden steeple barriers.

Head Coach Chris Bucknam

Conference Championships

Chris Bucknam begins his sixth season at the helm of Arkansas Razorback men’s cross country and track and field programs this fall. A veteran in the coaching ranks, Bucknam took the head coaching position at Arkansas on June 27, 2008, after a 25-year stint at Northern Iowa. Since assuming the head coaching position at Arkansas, Bucknam has enjoyed tremendous success in the form of 11 Southeastern Conference championships, three NCAA regional titles, 149 All-America honors, 32 SEC champions and 10 top 10 finishes at national championships, but all pale in comparison to the achievement of his 2013 indoor track squad who captured Bucknam’s first and Arkansas’ 41st NCAA title. Entering the competition as the No. 1 ranked team in the nation, the Razorbacks did not disappoint the hometown crowd at the Randal Tyson Track Center as Arkansas scored 74 points and racked up 25 All-America honors at the meet. Two individuals captured NCAA titles and a collegiate record in the 4x400 relay added a third to the Razorbacks’ dominating performance. Along with the indoor title, Arkansas placed 10th at the NCAA Cross Country Championship and third at the outdoor meet allowing the program to claim its first John McDonnell Program of the Year award, named after the legendary Arkansas coach whom Bucknam took over for following his retirement.

The national recognition as the best program in the nation was no fluke as Bucknam and his staff have been building to that for several years. In 2011-12, Arkansas won the program’s 13th SEC Triple Crown and the first with Bucknam at the helm. The Razorbacks duplicated the effort in 2012-13 giving them 11 league championships over the past five years. No other SEC school has more than two in that same time frame. For his part Bucknam has been named the SEC Coach of the Year 11 times and national coach of the year one time. Nationally, Bucknam’s guidance has led the Razorbacks to 10 top 10 finishes since his arrival in Fayetteville. His cross country squads have placed in the top 10 in two of the last three seasons while indoor track has four top 10s over the last five campaigns including national runner-up and national title seasons over the past two. In outdoor track, Bucknam’s squads have four top 10 finishes. As the head coach, Bucknam’s charge is to look at the big picture and lead his team to championships, but that doesn’t deter him from his work with the Razorback distance crew. He has led his student-athletes to 26 marks that have etched themselves on Arkansas’ prestigious alltime top 10 lists including two school records in the indoor distance medley relay and outdoor 10,000 meters. The relay squad of Alex McClary, Ben Skidmore, Chris Bilbrew and Dorian Ulrey eclipsed an 11-year-old record, which had not even been close to being broken since it was set in 1998, at the UW Invitational when it ran 9:28.35. The outdoor school record was set by Shawn Forrest, when he shattered the 10,000-meter mark with a time of 27:52.10 at the Payton Jordan Invitational. Ulrey’s three-year Arkansas career was one of the more celebrated in Razorback history as the Port Byron, Ill. native earned eight All-America honors, one NCAA Championship, seven SEC titles, two SEC Athlete of the Year awards and the league’s sportsmanship award. The lessons that Ulrey picked up in Fayetteville have served him well since he completed his eligibility as he continues to perform well professionally. Along with the success of his student-athletes in the competition arena, Razorbacks have been equally as good in the classroom. Arkansas has placed two student-athletes on the Capital One Academic All-America squads over the past five years, including one this past season, had more than 60 named to the SEC Academic Honor Rolls, earned 35 United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) all-academic honorees and been included in the USTFCCCA team awards six times. Prior to taking over the Arkansas program, Bucknam was a well-respected head coach at Northern Iowa where he led his teams to 35 conference championships, two top-10 and six top-20 finishes at the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships. He was named conference coach of the year 33 times while in Cedar Falls, Iowa, and coached three individual national champions and 34 All-Americans who earned a total of 85 honors.

His time with the Panthers saw him lead the men’s program for 25 seasons and a combined track and field operation for the final 11 years. Bucknam’s career at Northern Iowa began as an assistant in 1979 before he assumed the head coaching job prior to the 1984 campaign. Along with his various conference coach of the year awards, Bucknam was also honored regionally for his acumen with nine USTFCCCA Midwest Region Coach of the Year honors. Under Bucknam’s tutelage, Northern Iowa product Joey Woody was a three-time All-American and the 1997 national champion in the 400-meter hurdles. Woody placed second in the 400-meter hurdles at 2003 World Championships and was a member of the 1999 World Champion 4x400-meter relay team. A native of Beverly, Mass., Bucknam attended Norwich University in Northfield, Vt., where he was a cross country and track letterman. He was elected cross country co-captain his senior year and is a member of the Norwich Athletic Hall of Fame. He earned his bachelor’s degree in physical education in 1978. He earned his master’s degree in physical education from Northern Iowa in 1982. He and his wife, Cindy, are the parents of a son, Eric, and a daughter, Kate.

Asst. Coach Doug Case

Regional Championships

Doug Case enters his sixth season as an assistant coach with the University of Arkansas cross country and track and field teams. He is charged with working with the Razorback sprinters, relay teams and pole vault and is starting his 22nd year of coaching at the collegiate level. Since arriving in Fayetteville, following an extended stay at Northern Iowa, Case has revitalized the Arkansas sprint teams and led his student-athletes to four NCAA Championships, including the first ever championships in both the pole vault and indoor 4x400-meter relay, and 67 All-America honors. Case’s guidance has helped Razorbacks claim 15 Southeastern Conference individual championships and grab 11 of the last 15 SEC league titles in cross country and track & field. The crowning achievement of Case’s time with Arkansas came during the 2013 indoor track season when he and longtime friend and mentor Chris Bucknam led the Razorbacks to the NCAA Championship. Together for 5 years, the duo followed up the win with a thirdplace finish at the outdoor meet which led to the University’s first John McDonnell Program of the Year award. Case’s work at Arkansas has not gone unnoticed to his colleagues as he earned the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches’ Association (USTFCCCA) South Central regional assistant coach of the year in 2012. Along with his ability to teach his protégés to race and compete, Case has also put his stamp on the Razorback record books. In five years, Arkansas student-athletes have etched their name into the all-time Razorback marks in the events that Case oversees 46 times and set the all-time collegiate record in the indoor 4x400-meter relay. One of his current star pupils is pole vaulter Andrew Irwin who in two seasons at Arkansas has won two NCAA championships and three SEC titles in four attempts. Case’s work with Irwin has won the Mt. Ida, Ark., native two All-America honors, SEC Freshman Field Athlete of the Year awards both indoor and out, the SEC Field Athlete of the Year for the 2012 outdoor season and USTFCCCA South Central Region Field Athlete of the Year accolades. Prior to joining his mentor on the Arkansas coaching staff, Case was a very successful coach at Northern Iowa, leading his student-athletes to two individual na-

tional championships, 43 All-America honors and 68 national championship qualifiers. His athletes dominated the Missouri Valley Conference with 97 individual and relay championships in his time with the Panthers and set school records in 10 events. While Case is proud of the efforts of all of his former competitors, 800-meter runner Tyler Mulder and pole vaulter Jacob Pauli hold a special place with Case after the tandem won national titles in 2008 and 2001, respectively. Mulder earned his title with a spectacular 1:49.20 at the national meet and Pauli went on to finish third at the 2007 USA Outdoor Championship. Case’s career path saw him make a stop at Arkansas State before taking the head coaching position at Drake and eventually Northern Iowa. At Arkansas State, the Red Wolves won nine Sun Belt Conference titles and Case recruited 52 outdoor and 49 indoor individual conference champions, four All-Americans, seven Olympic Trials qualifiers and three Olympians. His three-year stint at Drake included three school records and a ninth-place finish by the distance medley relay at the NCAA Championship. A former Northern Iowa sprinter, Case set eight school records between 1982 and 1986 and was an allconference performer. A native of Marshalltown, Iowa, Case received his bachelor’s degree from UNI in 1987 and served as a graduate assistant with the Panthers the next two seasons. He and his wife, Chris, have four children: Kelsey, Lauren, Cameron and Regan.

In addition to his duties with the Razorbacks, Geopfert is a rising star on the national stage and in 2013 coached his second Thorpe Cup, a decathlon competition between the United States and Germany. A longtime advocate of the competition, Geopfert was also a member of three Thorpe Cup championships as a competitor between 2003 and 2006. Familiar with Coach Bucknam’s philosophies and coaching style, Geopfert was an athlete during the head Razorback’s run at Northern Iowa before joining the coaching staff. The long-time Panther even took over the program for one season, after Bucknam left for Arkansas, before joining his mentor one year later. His coaching at Northern Iowa led to Missouri Valley Conference Travis Geopfert begins his fifth season at the University indoor and outdoor championships in 2009 as well as of Arkansas in the fall of 2013 and his 11th as a collegiate coach of the year honors both seasons.

His most recent honor led him to the USTFCCCA National Assistant Coach of the Year award for the 2013 indoor track season. Geopfert’s 2013 track season was not just rewarding for him as an individual, but from a team standpoint as he helped Arkansas claim its 41st NCAA Championship during the indoor track season and win the John McDonnell Program of the Year award. The team also won its second straight SEC triple crown and Geopfert’s fingerprints were all over Arkansas’ team success in 2013 as he coached student-athletes to a national title in the heptathlon, 14 All-America honors and an SEC Champion. While his overall credentials are staggering, his numbers since arriving in Fayetteville are even better. He has coached two national champions, six SEC titlists, five SEC runner-ups, 17 first-team All-Americans and five second-team All-Americans. Kevin Lazas, the 2013 NCAA heptathlon champion, tallied 6,175 points on the way to his national title, a total that ranks No. 3 in NCAA history. The lofty numbers are not limited to just the multievents. Geopfert coached Razorbacks have etched their names into the Arkansas all-time top 10 lists 40 times in just four seasons.

Godfrey Siamusiye - 1995, 1996

One of the most decorated distance runners in Arkansas history, Joe Falcon compiled seven NCAA titles, 15 SEC crowns and was named an AllAmerican 11 times. He was the 3,000-meter champion in 1987 and 1988, indoor mile champ in 1988, outdoor 10,000-meter champion in 1987, outdoor 1,500-meter champion in 1988 and NCAA cross country champion in 1987. His NCAA win in 1987 propelled Arkansas to its third NCAA Cross Country team title. Falcon and the squad recorded a team score of 87 to edge out Dartmouth (119 points). Falcon was ranked among the top distance runners in the world throughout his career by Track and Field News, including a No. 1 ranking at 5,000 meters in 1989 and 1,500 meters in 1990. He was the champion of the annual Oslo Dream Mile in 1990 in Oslo, Norway with a time of 3:49.31, a race that saw his fastest 1,500-meter split: 3:33.6.

A two-time Olympian for his native Zambia, Godfrey Siamusiye competed at 5,000 meters in the 1993 Barcelona Games and in the 3,000 meter steeplechase at the 1996 games in Atlanta. He finished 10th in his semifinal heat of the steeplechase with a time of 8:37.41. At Arkansas he was a two-time NCAA Champion in cross country (1995-96), and a back-to-back champion in the outdoor 10,000 meters (1995-96). Siamusiye’s race win in 1995 led Arkansas to its eighth NCAA Cross Country team title. The ‘95 squad scored 100 points to beat Northern Arizona’s 142 points. Arkansas earned an NCAA runner-up finish in the team race behind Siamusiye’s win in 1996. Arkansas’ records book still reflects the impact of Siamusiye on the program’s long-distance legacy. He still owns the No. 2 time in the steeplechase with a time of 8:25.49 which he ran during the 1996 season. Siamusiye is also 10th on Arkansas’ all-time 5K list with a 13:37.80 performance in 1996. He never lost a cross country race as a Razorback.

HISTORIC SENIOR WALK

As you make your way around campus, you’re sure to notice something unique about many of the sidewalks. Historic Senior Walk showcases the names of more than 150,000 University of Arkansas graduates, grouped by year of graduation. Senior Walk is the university’s longest tradition in both length and years. It’s concrete proof of the university’s commitment to students. Senior Walk is also a perfect example of how the University of Arkansas celebrates its history and traditions while focusing on innovations for the future. When the costs involved in handetching names into concrete forced numerous other universities to give up, the U of A turned to its physical plant and engineering school grads to create a one-of-a-kind computerized sandblasting machine: the SandHog. Each summer, the SandHog roars across campus etching the names of new graduates into sidewalks.

Arkansas is a natural wonder of forests, mountains and lakes framed by picturesque rivers and streams. Some of the nation’s best outdoor amenities and most spectacular hiking trails are within a short drive of campus.

OLD MAIN

One of the original buildings on Arkansas’ campus, Old Main symbolizes the strong connection to the past and the focus upon the future which come together in the present at the University of Arkansas. Completed in 1875, Old Main stood the test of time until the mid-1980s when age and modern building codes threatened to send it to the wrecking ball as had happened to its sister building at the University of Illinois. A major fund-raising campaign by alumni totally renovated Old Main. Reopening in 1992, the building maintains the feel of a Victorian-era building with high ceilings and elaborate wooden trim. Just below the surface of the period hardwood floors, Old Main is hard-wired to the internet and built to last well into its second century. Even with renovation, Old Main remained unfinished until 2005. One of the gifts during the Campaign for the Twenty-First Century specified the installation of a clock, originally planned for the blank faces of the south tower. As mentioned, Old Main was built from shared plans with its counterpart on the Illinois campus, with one important difference. The north tower of Arkansas’ Old Main is taller than the south tower. Legend says this was symbolic of the Civil War as the lead engineer was a northern veteran.

BEYOND CAMPUS

Fayetteville is routinely considered among the country’s finest college towns and the surrounding Northwest Arkansas region is regularly ranked one of the best places to live in the U.S. You’ll find a number of attractions that will contribute to a rich college experience. Three of America’s largest corporations have their world headquarters in the region: Walmart, Tyson Foods and J.B. Hunt Transportation, Inc. Their close proximity to the U of A campus, along with their executives’ and employees’ active involvement in university life, offers students and faculty exceptional opportunities for research partnerships, internships, and postgraduation employment.

Along the way, Long has gained national attention and earned numerous awards for his progressive leadership of a program encompassing 19 sports and more than 460 student-athletes. Long leads a comprehensive athletics program committed to the development of student-athletes academically, athletically and socially. A member of Chancellor G. David Gearhart’s Executive Committee, Long is helping to chart the course for the future of higher education at the University of Arkansas while integrating Razorback Athletics into the campus community. Long’s leadership and unwavering commitment to the student-athletes and maintaining integrity within intercollegiate athletics has not gone unnoticed. In 2013, Long was named as an Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year for the Football Bowl Subdivision. In 2012, Long was named a finalist for the SportsBusiness Journal and SportsBusiness Daily Athletic Director of the Year. In the spring of 2012, the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation and longtime chairman Fred W. Smith made a combined gift of more than $1.25 million to the program in recognition of Long’s leadership of Razorback Athletics. In each of the past four years, Razorback Athletics has transferred funds totaling more than $1 million to support the university’s academic mission. The department’s total support of university and student programs and initiatives includes $1.9 million in direct funding of academic programs. In 2012, Razorback Athletics committed an additional $1.2 million annually to help fund a new classroom and laboratory building to serve the entire University of Arkansas student population. In Long’s tenure, Arkansas has captured 15 conference championships and advanced to 81 post-season competitions, including the school’s first Bowl Championship Series appearance in football and a national title at the 2013 NCAA Men’s Indoor Track and Field Championships. In 2012-13, Arkansas finished No. 23 in the Learfield Sports Directors Cup, a year-long competition ranking the nation’s most successful intercollegiate athletic programs, marking the fifth time in the past six years the Razorbacks have finished in the top 25. In the classroom, the Razorbacks continue to set new standards including posting a school record student-athlete grade point average of 3.09 in 2012-13. It marked the fifth consecutive year Razorback student-athletes posted a GPA exceeding 3.0. In 2013, for the first time in history, Arkansas exceeded the national APR multi-year rate in all 19 sports and had a record ive teams earn NCAA Public Recognition awards. Graduation success rates continue to rise with a total of 94 current or former Razorback studentathletes graduating in 2012-13.

Long was selected to replace legendary athletic director and former Razorback football coach Frank Broyles and even before he officially took the reins on Jan. 1, 2008, Arkansas announced that it would combine its previously independent men’s and women’s athletic programs into one combined athletic program. Long adeptly blended the men’s and women’s athletic departments into one unified department and established a new administrative structure. Long has also worked tirelessly to maintain long-time relationships and to forge new relationships for the benefit of the Razorback program

including extending Arkansas’ relationship with War Memorial Stadium and partnering with former Razorback Jerry Jones to develop the Southwest Classic, a football series with Texas A&M played at the spectacular Cowboys Stadium. Under Long’s leadership, the program has fortified its financial standing ensuring more support for the development of student-athletes. According to USA Today, Arkansas is one of only 23 financially selfsustaining Division I-A athletic programs in the nation. As economic indicators were beginning to point toward challenging economic times, Long signed Arkansas to a deal with IMG College to form Razorback Sports Properties that guarantees the Razorback program $73 million during the course of the decade-long agreement. Long also negotiated an extensive all sports apparel and footwear agreement with NIKE, Inc. that will outfit all 19 Razorback sports programs through the 2014-15 season. In December 2012, Forbes Magazine estimated the value of the Razorback Football program at $83 million, ranking the University of Arkansas in the top 10 nationally for the second consecutive year. In 2010, Long moved to help meet the growing financial needs of fielding a nationally competitive all sports program. The athletic department launched the “Answer the Call” campaign through the Razorback Foundation which resulted in more than 2,600 new members and helped generate more than $6.5 million in additional support for Razorback student-athletes. In 2012, Long guided the program to a record breaking fundraising year further bolstering Arkansas’ financial strength. With an eye towards the future, Long commissioned a comprehensive plan to assess the future facility needs of the program. Unveiled in October 2011, the Razorback Athletic Facilities Master Plan provided a vision and the road map for $320 million of facility renovations and additions that will help all 19 Razorback sports remain competitive in the Southeastern Conference and nationally over the next 30 years. The first major project from the master plan, the $40 million Fred W. Smith Football Center, opened in the summer of 2013. Three other facilities, a Student-Athlete Success Center, a basketball indoor practice facility and a baseball and track indoor training facility have all been approved and are moving forward to construction. As part of the next step in the plan, a market and cost analysis study is being conducted on a potential north end zone expansion to Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. According to a recent economic impact study, Razorback Athletics will have an estimated economic impact of more than $1 billion in the next five years. The study estimated that Razorback Athletics generates $153.6 million annually to the region’s economy including the benefits of drawing more than a million fans annually to campus to cheer on the Razorbacks. Planned athletic construction during the course of the next five years will generate another $239.7 million. A veteran administrator with a track record of the highest commitment to the concept of “student-athlete,” Long has had more than two decades of experience in athletic administration at the Division I level including at the University of Pittsburgh, University of Oklahoma, University of Michigan, Virginia Tech University, Eastern Kentucky University and Rice University.
