Mike Neighbors’ ladies were left to lick their wounds and wonder what they could’ve done to end up in the win column.
Taliah Scott missed her second consecutive game with back issues, so Samara Spencer and Makayla Daniels had to pick up the slack in the meantime.
Bentonville native Maryam Dauda was teriffic inside, scoring 17 points and pulling down 13 rebounds, while Saylor Poffenbarger had a quiet night by her standards, only scoring 9 points and grabbing only 7 rebounds.
Arkansas will be back in action on Sunday, visiting Alabama. Tipoff will be at 2 p.m. from Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa,
