The UAM Athletics Department elects to join the newly created GAC Sports Network powered by Hudl, as announced by the Great American Conference on Friday.

Launching for the 2026-27 athletic season, the network will provide fans with comprehensive live and on-demand broadcast coverage from seven participating member institutions and selected GAC post-season championship events.

Participating institutions for the upcoming academic year include Arkansas Tech University, University of Arkansas–Monticello, East Central University, Oklahoma Baptist University, Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Southern Arkansas University, and Southern Nazarene University. By implementing this collective subscription model, the GAC joins fourteen other NCAA Division II conferences that utilize similar networks to enhance broadcast quality and provide resources for campus operations.

The University of Arkansas at Monticello football team hit the road for the first time in the 2026 season on Thursday evening, taking on Great American Conference member East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma. The Weevils battled the Tigers throughout the night before ultimately falling, 42-37.

Arkansas-Monticello produced 462 yards of total offense in the contest, including 316 yards through the air and 146 on the ground. The Weevils picked up 24 first downs and finished a perfect 6-for-6 on trips to the red zone.
