FAYETTEVILLE — The Razorback Foundation announced Wednesday a donation of up to $1 million by the Willard & Pat Walker Charitable Foundation toward the construction cost of the Hunt Baseball Development Center at the University of Arkansas.

The Walker Foundation will match up to $1 million total in new donations toward the baseball center, which is scheduled to open sometime this summer.
