The University of Arkansas at Little Rock women's basketball team has coped well leaning on a six-player rotation over the last month, but its short bench gave out at Louisiana-Monroe on Monday.
The Trojans (13-8, 9-5 Sun Belt Conference) suffered their first double-digit defeat in league play in the 62-44 loss to the Warhawks, snapping a 19-game winning streak over Louisiana-Monroe. UALR trailed 45-38 after three quarters before the Trojans shot 1 of 12 from the field and were outscored 17-6 in the final quarter.
The loss gave the Warhawks their first Sun Belt win of the season, and for UALR, a wake-up call ahead of the final weekend of the regular season.
