LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - The University of Arkansas at Little Rock has renewed the contract of the school's athletic director for another five years.

The school announced Monday that athletic director Chasse Conque signed an agreement to stay at the university through 2022.

Chancellor Andrew Rogerson called Conque "an amazing athletic director" and said he's pleased with the contract's renewal.
