It is always a great day to be a Razorback! However, last week, there was a little extra to celebrate as our women’s basketball program provided one of the most significant moments in the history of our program.
Consider that since 2012, UCONN has lost to only eight different opponents. Arkansas added its name to that distinguished list and in turn picked up its second top-five win of the season, after earlier defeating then-No. 4 Baylor in December.
Fittingly, the opportunity came as a result of our coaches and student-athletes showing some adaptability in this far from ordinary season. When a conference opponent opted out for the season, Coach Neighbors went out and scheduled the most successful women’s basketball program over the past quarter-century.Thanks to the flexibility and competitiveness of Coach Neighbors and the outstanding young women in our program, a chance to make history was pro

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Redshirt senior guard Chelsea Dungee earned SEC Co-Player of the Week honors, the conference office announced today. The award is the second weekly recognition for Dungee by the SEC, and she becomes the first Hog to win the award multiple times in a season since C’eira Ricketts did so back in 2011.
Dungee put on one of the greatest Razorback performances of all time, regardless of sport, Thursday night against UConn. She scored 37 points against the Huskies, the most by any player against them since the 1999-2000 season. She did so on an incredibly efficient line: 13-21 from the field, 4-5 from three and 7-10 from the free throw line.
FAYETTEVILLE – For the third time in five years, Arkansas will face Oklahoma State in the annual SEC/Big 12 Challenge. The Razorbacks will travel to Stillwater, Okla., to face the Cowboys on Saturday (Jan. 30). The game is set to start at 3:00 pm and will be televised on ESPN2.
The game features two of the top rookies in the nation – who were also high school teammates and roommates at Montverde (Fla.) Academy – in Arkansas’ Moses Moody (fourth among NCAA freshmen in scoring) and Cade Cunningham (second among NCAA frosh in scoring). They are also just two of four freshmen in the country to average at least 16 points and 5.5 rebounds.
Arkansas has reached the socially distanced sell out threshold for its game against UConn tomorrow, announced this evening. The Hogs will play the game in front of 4,200 fans tomorrow night at 5 p.m. inside Bud Walton Arena, the largest crowd to witness a women's basketball game so far this season.
