FAYETTEVILLE — University of Arkansas fans will soon have a new Web address for the latest information on Razorback athletics as the all-new ArkansasRazorbacks. com launches July 21.

“ It is with great anticipation that we announce a new home for Razorback Sports on the internet, ” Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Jeff Long said. “ Over the past six months, we have begun to blend our two strong and successful athletic departments into one even stronger combined program. Beginning later this month, the first visible signs of our combined program will be seen in our new Web site www. arkansasrazorbacks. com where fans can follow all 19 sports and more than 450 student-athletes. ”

ArkansasRazorbacks. com replaces the two current Web sites — Hogwired. com for men’s teams and Ladybacks. com for women’s teams.

“ The all new Web site will be an integral part of our athletic program and provide a platform to communicate with Razorback fans all over the world, ” Long said. “ We are excited about ArkansasRazorbacks. com and are committed to maintaining a dynamic Web presence that will showcase the athletic and academic accomplishments of our student-athletes, as well as share with our fans the very positive impact our program has on the university community and the State of Arkansas. ”

The new Web site covers all 19 sports at the University of Arkansas, and will include new features to keep fans up-to-date on Razorback athletics.

The new Web site kicks off the week of SEC Football Media Days, and ArkansasRazorbacks. com will be there to cover each day of the event with exclusive content and video features.

The new Web site will include special fan guide pages for Razorback visitors to Fayetteville beginning Aug. 30.
