Subject: How Do You Find Out About College Sports For Colleges That Dropped Them?

I am asking because my dad wanted to know. Petit Jean College now U. of Arkansas Community College at Morrelton in Arkansas had sports at one time. They still have a goal post and football stadium on campus. My dad said they were competing in JC ball in football and men's and women's from before he was born until at least the 1960s. They played against UAPB, Little Rock JC, Little Rock College and some others at the JC level.

Unless you can visit the college in question and gain permission to look through the school's archives or whatever information is in the library, the best option is (unfortunately) usually the school's yearbooks, that is, if they have been digitized and published on the internet. While most larger universities have done this, the number of small colleges (and particularly junior colleges) that have done so is far less. I've found only a few junior colleges that published yearbooks and have digitized them, and and have (or once had) a football team. Sadly the digitization of historical information pertaining to college football teams seems to be a very low priority at present, but I think someday nearly all such surviving material will eventually be available on the internet.
