Archibong Named to 2023 SEC Community Service Team

As the team is set to begin postseason action, Arkansas middle blocker Abigail Archibong has earned conference honors with a spot on the 2023 SEC Community Service Team.

Since her arrival at Arkansas in 2021 as a graduate transfer, Abigail has been heavily involved in many areas of student-athlete development. After serving as a Student Athlete Advisory Committee representative in her first year, Abigail took on a greater leadership role as a founding member of BLAC, the Black Leadership Athletic Committee.

The group, formed in 2022, aims to enhance the Black student-athlete experience through education, service, and fellowship. BLAC events provide a space for Black student-athletes to bond and connect, as well as starting conversations and engaging the entire student-athlete and university population. Recently, BLAC has hosted a “Winning Your Hair While Winning in Your Sport” workshop and Friendsgiving, both featuring community members who helped educate and speak on topics important to the Black student-athlete experience and beyond.

Outside of BLAC, Abigail remains engaged with student-athlete development with activities like Trunk or Treat with UAMS and is a dedicated member of Arkansas’ Alpha Kappa Alpha chapter, all while keeping up with volleyball and her rigorous OT doctorate program.
