Overview
- Arkansas, which announced Tuesday that Jordyn Wieber is stepping down, named longtime assistant Chris Brooks as head coach.
- Wieber said she is leaving to focus on her family and other passions after seven seasons that raised Arkansas into a steady national contender.
- Brooks said he will keep assistants Kyla Ross and Catelyn Branson in place and will hire one more coach to restore a four-person staff.
- The team must replace about half of its regular routines after four seniors finished their eligibility and Joscelyn Roberson entered the transfer portal, with Iowa State transfer Noelle Adams committed and four freshmen signed.
- Arkansas finished seventh at the NCAA Championships on April 18 and set multiple program bests under Wieber, including a 198.1 team score in March 2024.
