University of Arkansas Chancellor Dr. Charles Robinson and other members of the UA team visited Sheridan High School on Wednesday to speak to a group of high school students. (They even brought the Razorbug!) Accompanying Dr. Robinson and also speaking to students were Dr. Suzanne McCray, Vice Provost for Enrollment and Dean of Admissions; Megan Garland, Associate Director for Arkansas Recruitment; and Erin Sanders, Admissions Counselor for Southeast Arkansas. SHS College and Career Coach Stephanie Smith helped organize the event.
It's always great to have the top Razorback on campus!
Haven Rhoden scored four goals and Olivia Jablonski scored one, as the Lady Jackets took a 5-1 win at Texarkana yesterday. The defense kept the Razorbacks out of the goal for most of the game.
