FAYETTEVILLE — Observations from Arkansas' 94-44 exhibition win over Emporia State.
Blocks, steals, defense galore against outmatched foe
Early in the second half, Emporia State failed to get the ball past the foul line in the backcourt on three straight possessions, leading to seven quick Arkansas points in perhaps the most shining example of how the Hornets were completely and utterly outmatched. At one point, Emporia State had 21 turnovers and 18 points as Arkansas led by as much as 53.
The Hornets finished with 30 turnovers. Arkansas had 16 steals and nine blocks, including six by senior Moses Kingsley in just 21 minutes.
