NOTES:

  • This will be the second all-time meeting between Arkansas and Maryland Eastern Shore.
  • The Razorbacks won the only other meeting, 100-40, on January 1, 2001.
    ^ Seven Razorbacks scored in double figures with Joe Johnson and Jannero Pargo leading the way with 14 points each.
    ^ Arkansas shot 60% from the field. The Hogs had 21 assists on 36 made baskets including six helpers each from TJ Cleveland and Brandon Dean.
    ^ UMES committed 42 turnovers (two shy of the most by an Arkansas opponent) as the Hogs came away with 24 steals. TJ Cleveland accounted for seven of the Razorback steals.
    ^ NOTE: The 24 steals are two shy of the UA record, and Arkansas hasn’t had at least 24 since that UMES game.
  • Arkansas scored first against Pacific and Little Rock and held the lead for the rest of the game in both cases.
    ^ Arkansas trailed Troy at halftime and tied the game, 32-32, with 16:59 remaining. Then Johnell Davis had a fastbreak layup to give Arkansas a 2-point lead with 16:27 left.
    ^ So, since Arkansas took that 2-point lead in the second half vs. Troy, Arkansas has led 89:45 of the last 91:50 played.
    ^ To start the Pacific game, the first points were scored 58 seconds into the game and the first points of the Little Rock game came at 1:07 for a total of 2:05 of playing time that was tied at 0-0.
