The girls are called the Golden Suns.
Central Arkansas is technically called the Bears, with the girls teams called the Sugar Bears.

The Arkansas schools are all pretty weird.
Always figured the state of AL had some strange thing going on
'Bama - Crimson Tide, use elephant
AU - Tiger officially, eagle unofficially
UAB - A dragon but use a name that is also used to describe potheads
Troy Trojans - Kind of redundant sounding

NC STATE WOLFPACK!
Now this is the Law of the Jungle -- as old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the Wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk the Law runneth forward and back --
For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
-Rudyard Kipling
