For the second straight season, the Wolf Pack has lost its women's swimming coach to a Power 5 school.

And for the second straight season, the Wolf Pack has lost a coach who led the school to a Mountain West title to a Power 5 school.

Arkansas announced Wednesday afternoon the hiring of Neil Harper as the head coach of its women's swimming and diving program. During his lone season in Reno, Harper led the Wolf Pack to a perfect regular season, to just the second MW title in school history and to a 20th-place finish in the NCAA Championships, although all of those points were scored by Nevada's divers.
