The Arkansas Razorbacks are starting the 2024 cross country season ranked No. 3 nationally, with a strong expectation to win the SEC title. Last season, they finished fourth at the national championships, marking their third fourth-place finish in four years. Defending champions Oklahoma State and BYU take the top two spots in the USTFCCCA preseason national poll. The Razorbacks had three top-six finishers in the SEC last year, with Patrick Kiprop and Kirami Yego returning as All-Americans. Additionally, the team has welcomed new talent, including two-time All-American Yaseen Abdalla.

The conference itself kicks off September 21 with Kentucky at Alabama, and really gets going with games on October 5, 12, and 19. The conference is split into three pools—East, West, and South.

A developing tropical disturbance in the Caribbean is showing increasing potential to enter the eastern Gulf of Mexico, intensify, and impact areas along the Gulf Coast, likely between Florida and Louisiana. If the system gains a name, it will be designated Tropical Storm Debby. This system has the potential to bring significant rainfall to the eastern Gulf Coast, and depending on its strength, could also generate hazardous winds and a dangerous storm surge.

The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
