🔺 First Of Many. The Kelsi Musick era got off to a hot start as Razorback women’s basketball defeated Louisiana Tech 93-81 in their season opener! Arkansas erased a 15-point deficit early on to take the reins. Bonnie Deas led all scorers with 25 points in her collegiate debut, knocking down four from 3-point range. Taleyah Jones recorded a double-double in her Razorback debut with 20 points and 12 rebounds. The Hogs will return to action on Friday when they host UAPB at 10:30 a.m.

🔺 Await Our Fate. The fourth-ranked soccer team was eliminated from the SEC Tournament after a 2-1 loss to Mississippi State in the quarterfinals. Bella Field scored her fifth goal of the season, while Evelyn Vitali made five saves. Arkansas will await its NCAA Tournament draw, which will be revealed on Nov. 10.

🔺 Schedule’s Set. The 2025-26 Razorback softball schedule is here! Arkansas will play 52 total regular season games, with 28 inside the friendly confines at Bogle Park. The Razorbacks will play 13 teams that advanced to the 2025 NCAA Tournament, including three Women’s College World Series participants.
