FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas will wear gold hats during its baseball game against Arkansas State on Tuesday to promote childhood cancer awareness.
The hats, which include red trim and the Razorbacks’ ‘A’ logo, were unveiled last year and have been sold by the university and its vendors. Arkansas planned to wear the hats during a baseball game last year before the covid-19 pandemic shut down the 2020 season after four weeks.
“One of the greatest obstacles in this fight to end childhood cancer is lack of awareness,” the Razorbacks’ baseball account tweeted Tuesday. “Tonight, we wear gold caps to signify the importance of research and raise awareness for the thousands of children and their families battling this diagnosis each and every year.
