Maryam Dauda wasted no time for the Hogs, getting Arkansas on the scoreboard with a layup on their first possession, but UCA responded with a layup off their own off a miss. Arkansas earned the win behind a balanced scoring attack, as all five starters reached double digits in scoring led by Saylor Poffenbarger and Taliah Scott’s 17 a piece. That also ties a school record (with Tom Collen and Gary Blair).
Arkansas’ win elevated the Hogs to 5-0, marking the third time in Mike Neighbors’ career in Fayetteville his team has started a season with five straight wins.
