- Arkansas Razorbacks

Three members of the Razorbacks’ women’s tennis team are set for tournament action this week, with one competing in Norman, Okla., competing in the ITF W35 Norman Open tournament, and two taking the court in Sumter, S.C. to compete in the ITF W15 Sumter tournament.

For the second time in as many matches, Arkansas rallied back from being down two sets and forced a fifth, but this time the Razorbacks fell short and lost to the Mississippi State Bulldogs in five (16-25, 14-25, 25-22, 25-14, 7-15).

The East Lake Cup is a premier collegiate golf tournament featuring the four semifinalists from the previous season's men's and women's NCAA Championships.

With Arkansas up two with just over a minute to play and the shot clock inside five seconds, freshman Davion Thompson drilled a step-back 3-pointer from the top of the key to put the Razorbacks up five (73-68). Then, with four seconds left, Billy Richmond III went 1-of-2 at the free throw line to secure a 76-72 Arkansas win over Gonzaga Saturday afternoon at Bud Walton Arena.

The Razorback Swim and Dive picked up a 179-120 win against Rice on Friday.  

The Hogs inched closer to a first-round bye in the SEC Tournament and will need a win in the regular-season finale at Kentucky (Nov. 1) to lock up a top-four finish.
