Eighteen Arkansas track and field athletes representing eight countries are set to compete at the 2025 World Athletics Championships in Tokyo from Sept. 13-21 at Japan National Stadium.
Twelve women and six men who competed for the Razorbacks made it to the outdoor championships to contend in what Arkansas men’s coach Chris Bucknam called “our Super Bowl.”
“It’s an excellent opportunity for these athletes to compete on the world stage,” Bucknam said. “I’m proud of the development and hard work these athletes put in to get to this point. I’m looking forward to seeing how they do and obviously representing the Hogs and the state of Arkansas.
