FAYETTEVILLE — When the game is on the line, Arkansas senior Malica Monk is at her best.
Monk has hit three game-winning shots in the closing seconds this season, helping the Razorbacks to a 14-5 overall and 3-2 SEC record ahead of their home matchup with Alabama (10-9, 2-4) on Thursday night.
Monk's latest dagger came at Tennessee on Monday. She crossed over a Tennessee defender to create separation and hit about a 12-foot jumper with 3.6 seconds remaining to give Arkansas an 80-79 win - its first road win over the Volunteers since 2012 and only the second for the Razorbacks in 16 games at Thompson-Boling Arena.
