2 BOSTAD S TOUGHNESS In the later stages of the first half on the road at Ole Miss Jan. 2, freshman guard McKinley Bostad found a crease in the defense and drove down the lane. Bostad s feet got tangled up with the defender s, sending her face first onto the hardwood, leaving her front two teeth the only thing to break her fall. Her front two teeth broke off in half and where her teeth hit left a permanent indent on the surface at Tad Smith Coliseum. After only a few minutes on the bench to recollect herself and get the bleeding down, she told Coach Dykes she was ready to play. She finished the game playing 17 minutes and scoring three points. The following morning she had a double root canal and her teeth glued back together. Needless to say, she played 11 minutes Jan. 4 against Texas A&M. Her teeth were on the floor, I think I stepped on them when I went out there to check on her and she got up and she was saying coach my teeth are gone, my teeth are gone and within five or six minutes she was saying coach put me back in. Man, if I can get my whole team to play like that and believe like that and understand that that s how you re supposed to play the game no matter what jersey you have on but especially an Arkansas jersey. On the plane ride home, I told my staff the one positive I took out of that game was Bostad s fight and her willingness to say you re going to have to kill me to beat me because 99 players out of 100 last night would have said coach I can t go back in. head coach Jimmy Dykes said addressing the media Jan. 3. BERNA S BIG WEEKEND Senior Calli Berna had quite the busy weekend in December. On Dec. 19, she got engaged to former Razorback football player A.J. Derby. On Dec. 20, she walked in university commencement exercises, graduating with a degree in broadcast journalism. Finally, on Dec. 21 she started, scored three points and had four assists in Arkansas victory over Oklahoma in North Little Rock, Ark. BERNA S BUCKET With the score tied and just seconds remaining in the first half against Mississippi State Jan. 8, Berna swished a three-quarter court shot as time expired. Her incredible shot came in as the No. 1 play of the night on SportsCenter s Top 10. It is believed to be the first time Arkansas women s basketball has ever appeared on SC s Top 10. Relive the shot here: TOP ARKANSAS GUARDS Three of the top floor generals to ever don an Arkansas women s basketball jersey are all located on the Arkansas sideline this season.

In fact, she is only the second Razorback player ever to tally 600 points and grab 500 rebounds, while also dishing out 500 assists. Her 733 points, 501 rebounds, and 653 assists puts her in exclusive company with C eira Rickets (1,537 points, 664 rebounds, 516 assists). This season alone, Berna posts a points-rebounds-assists line of , and is the only player in the SEC to have 135 or more in each category. GETTING DEFENSIVE Arkansas has shown an ability to put the clamps down defensively this season. In fact, the Razorbacks rank in the top four in the conference and top 20 nationally in two key defensive categories, holding opponents to 36.2 percent shooting (fourth SEC, 28th nationally) and 55.4 points per game (fourth SEC, 21st nationally). Just in conference games, the defense has surrendered 50 points or less to five opponents. In fact, Arkansas is the only team to hold four SEC opponents under 50 points and keep one opponent under 40 points. The Razorbacks held three consecutive SEC opponents to under 50 points for the first time in program history this season (Jan Auburn 47, Feb. 1 - Alabama 42, Feb. 9 - Georgia 48). RAZORBACKS CLEAN THE GLASS Under first-year head coach Jimmy Dykes, rebounding the basketball has become a calling card for the Razorbacks. Arkansas possesses a +4.7 edge on the boards, ranking fourth in the SEC. In fact, Arkansas has outrebounded 17 of 29 opponents (tying one) this season. Arkansas has limited opponents second chances, ranking fifth in the SEC in defensive rebounding percentage at 67.8 percent. The Razorbacks have shown their will and grit on the boards, putting up these rebounding numbers despite having only the seventh-tallest (74.2 inch average) front-line in the SEC. NEW SEASON IMPROVEMENT In the wake of an 0-4 start to conference play, which witnessed the Razorbacks play three straight top-15 opponents, Coach Dykes placed on emphasis on the new season forgetting the first four games and concerning themselves more about the final 12 conference games. The Razorbacks finished 6-6 in their new season, but the record may not reflect all of the improvements Arkansas has statistically displayed. For instance, in the first four games, Arkansas averaged only 53.8 points per game on 32.3 percent shooting but has seen both of those numbers increase over the final 12 games to 55.2 points on 36.5 percent. Defense, a staple for Coach Dykes, has shown improvement too after the first four games (63.8 points allowed) compared to the last 12 (53.4 points allowed). BANK ON BROOKS After appearing in all 30 games as a true freshman last season, sophomore Kelsey Brooks has inserted herself as a dynamic option for the Razorbacks this season. The Olathe, Kan., native is twice this season a recipient of the SEC Player of the Week honors (Dec. 1 and 15) and is second on the team and ninth in the conference in scoring averaging 14.1 per game. She also is second on the team in steals per game (1.5), is second in assists per game (2.3), and is fifth on the team in rebounds per game (4.9). Brooks has started all 30 games and scored in double figures in 22 of them. In fact, she has led the team in scoring in 14 games and has been over the 20 point-pla ARKANSAS WOMEN S BASKETBALL 7

They have also accounted for 48.1 percent of the team s total scoring, the most of any duo in the SEC. Twelve times this season the Jackson and Brooks duo have combined for over 30 points and twice this season they have combined for over 40 points in a game (46 vs. Iowa, 47 vs. Oklahoma). BALANCED ATTACK The Razorbacks have demonstrated a balanced offensive attack this season, with three players averaging double-digit points (Jackson 14.9, Brooks 14.1 and Bowen 10.8). In fact, Arkansas is one of two SEC teams (Kentucky) to have three players ranked inside the conference s top 21 scorers. PASS FIRST Following her six assist performance against Auburn Jan. 29, senior Calli Berna tallied career assist no. 601, making her just the second Razorback ever to have 600 or more assists. Amy Wright ( ) owns the school record with 717 assists. In addition, Berna s 653 assists ranks her seventh for current active assist leaders in the NCAA. Averaging 5.5 assists per game in 16 conference games this season, Berna has tallied four or more assists in all but one SEC outing. WINS AGAINST RANKED TEAMS Arkansas has registered two wins over ranked opponents (No. 17/16 Iowa and No. 24/21 Georgia), marking the first time since the season the Razorbacks have picked off multiple ranked teams in the same season. Fourteen times in program history the Razorbacks have beaten multiple ranked opponents in the same season ( , , , , , , , , , , , , , ). Arkansas adds to its resume two RPI top 20 wins (Iowa, Oklahoma) and five RPI top 75 wins (Middle Tennessee, Georgia, LSU) this season. CLOSE CALLS Arkansas has played nine ranked teams for 10 games this year defeating Iowa and Georgia. Arkansas has a pair of losses to Texas A&M, ranked No. 5/8 and 15/16 by a combined six points.

Through SAAC, valuable opportunities are provided for all student-athletes to grow through personal development and service learning, while improving the overall student-athlete experience for now and the future Nike Sports Marketing Internship Joey Bailey One of five Razorback student-athletes nominated Schedule December Nike will facilitate virtual presentations informing students about Nike and the intern program December Student-athlete candidates apply for internships January through March Nike will conduct interview process March through April Nike will make selection and offer position June 3rd through August 21st Student will participate in internship program ALWAYS IN IT Even with their 6-10 conference record, the Razorbacks have been in every game and could make a case for having possibly only three losses on the schedule. Arkansas has been ahead at halftime in 10 of 16 SEC games. And in five of their 10 losses, the Razorbacks were leading, tied, or within one possession at the second half under eight media timeout. Twice, the Razorbacks have succumbed on the last possession of the game against Texas A&M (Jan. 4), the Aggies banked in a put back as time expired and at Vanderbilt, Arkansas missed a potential game-winning three pointer at the buzzer. Arkansas also had an opportunity to tie or take the lead in its last possession with 27 seconds remaining at Texas A&M (Feb. 12) but the possession resulted in a turnover. ANOTHER GAME, ANOTHER START Adding to the imprint she is leaving on the program, senior Calli Berna recorded her 100th career start against Texas A&M Feb. 12 and is the 10th player in program history to earn 100 or more starts. Appearing in a total of 126 career games and counting, Berna has started the last 93 games in a row. A WOLFF ON THE BOARDS Coined the heart and soul of the team by Coach Dykes, junior Melissa Wolff has been a key Hog in Arkansas rebounding numbers as she is averaging 8.1 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. In fact, Wolff has tallied five 10+ points, 10+ rebound games this season, the most on the team. Wolff has seven career double-doubles, and Arkansas is 6-1 in those games. The Cabot, Ark., native very well could have had five more double-doubles added to her resume as she has been a threat in just about every game this season. She nearly finished with a double-double against Iowa (9 and 10), South Dakota State (9 and 16), Rutgers (11 and 8), Missouri State (10 and 9), Texas A&M (8 and 10) and Kentucky (8 and 12). Wolff s 7.7 boards per game leads the team and ranks fifth in the SEC. OPPONENT FIELD GOAL DROUGHTS The Razorbacks have gotten after it on the defensive end of the floor and have held their opponents to without a field goal for large chunks of time. Through 30 games, 39 times the Razorback defense has held their opponent to without a field goal for over four minutes. Additionally, 24 times this season Arkansas has held their opponent to without a field goal for over five minutes. Arkansas held Tulsa to without a field goal for a 9:22 minute stretch on Dec. 14, a season-best for Arkansas defense. DOUBLE TAKE Arkansas has recorded 14 double-doubles from four different players this season, bettering last season s total of 10. Junior Melissa Wolff has accounted for five of them this season (17p/13r vs. Nicholls, 14p/10r vs. Savannah State, 15p/11r vs. Richmond, 12p/10r vs. Grambling, 10p/10r vs. Tennessee), giving her seven for her career. In fact, she s statistically good for about one double-double about every four starts (seven in 28 starts). Senior Jhasmin Bowen has tallied three this season (12p/10r vs. Nicholls, 17p/12r at Tulsa, 11p/10r at Missouri), giving her six for her career. Sophomore Jessica Jackson has nine career double-doubles, including five this season (19p/12r vs. Savannah State, 18p/10r vs. Texas A&M, 14p/11r at Alabama, 17p/13r vs. LSU, 19p/11r at Missouri) while sophomore Kelsey Brooks recorded her first career double-double Nov. 23 against Northwestern State (19p/12r) ARKANSAS WOMEN S BASKETBALL 9

The Razorbacks are turning the ball over a league-low 13.4 times per game, but are only forcing 13.5 turnovers on the defensive end. DEFENSIVELY STREAKING The Razorbacks winning four of five in conference from Jan. 29 Feb. 15 was sparked by its stout defensive effort. Consider this: in those five games, Arkansas suffocated opponents into 46.4 points per game on 33.3 percent shooting, including a dismal 14.8 percent from three. In the five outings, the defense surrendered 50 points or less to four opponents. In fact, in conference games, Arkansas is one of only two teams (LSU) in the SEC to hold at least three opponents under 50 points while also independently keeping at least one opponent under 40 points. Marking the first time in program history, the Razorbacks held three consecutive SEC opponents to under 50 points (Jan Auburn 47, Feb. 1 - Alabama 42, Feb. 9 - Georgia 48). CONFERENCE CALL FOR JACKSON A Preseason All-SEC first team selection, sophomore Jessica Jackson seems to find an extra gear when it comes to competing in the nation s toughest conference. During her freshman season, Jackson averaged 16.2 points and 6.2 rebounds per game and was named to the All-SEC freshman team and to the All-SEC second team. In 16 conference games this season, she averaged 14.8 points and 6.3 rebounds per game earning SEC Second-Team honors for the second time. Jackson has played in 32 career conference games, reaching double figures in 25 of those games. In fact, she is averaging 15.9 points per game in 32 career SEC games compared to 14.1 points in 26 non-conference games. BOSTAD NAMED FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK On the heels of her first career start and posting a career-high 15 points in the Razorbacks win over Missouri Jan. 18, freshman McKinley Bostad was named SEC Freshman of the Week as announced by the conference office Jan. 19. Against Missouri, she set new career highs in points (15), three-pointers made (4), three-pointers attempted (7), rebounds (3), and minutes (33). Bostad has seen her role gradually increase as the season has progressed, averaging 14.0 minutes and 2.5 points per contest in SEC play, compared to 12.7 minutes and 2.6 points in the non-conference games. JACKSON NAMED SEC CO-PLAYER OF THE WEEK Following a week where the Razorbacks finished 2-1 and she averaged 17.3 points per game, sophomore Jessica Jackson was named SEC Co-Player of the Week on Feb. 16, as announced by the conference office. This marks Jackson s fourth overall weekly award from the SEC, but first Player of the Week, as three times last season she claimed Freshman of the Week honors. TOUGH ON THE ROAD In non-conference play, the Razorbacks played away from Bud Walton Arena in six of their 12 games prior to the SEC Tournament. Arkansas established a perfect 6-0 (3-0 away, 3-0 neutral) mark in away/neutral site games, tied with South Carolina among SEC teams for the most wins coming away from home during the non-conference schedule. In fact, Arkansas is one of just of five teams in the big five conferences to win at least six non-conference games on the road or on a neutral floor. The Razorbacks have grown accustomed to winning while donning the traveling red jerseys, having won their last 12 true non-conference road games in a row dating back to the season ARKANSAS WOMEN S BASKETBALL

SOCIAL MEDIA INFORMATION Facebook Facebook.com/RazorbackWBB Twitter RazorbackWBB Instagram RazorbackWBB YouTube Youtube.com/ArkRazorbacks HOME SWEET ARKANSAS With a large portion of Razorback supporters scattered across Arkansas, the Hogs have a history of playing games throughout the state. Facing Oklahoma Dec. 21, the Razorbacks made their first appearance in Little Rock and Verizon Arena since 2009 and the program s 10th overall trip to Little Rock, where the Hogs have tallied a 7-5 (.6.36) all-time record. The Oklahoma game marked the 23rd overall game played in the state of Arkansas, followed by two games in the SEC Tournament (Ole Miss and South Carolina) which was played at Verizon Arena, for the Razorbacks. Arkansas is 17-8 (.680) all-time. 700 PROGRAM WINS Arkansas defeated Tulsa on Dec. 14, giving the Razorbacks their 700th program win. Arkansas joins nine other SEC schools (Tennessee, Georgia, LSU, Auburn, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, Kentucky, South Carolina, Texas A&M) that have 700 or more program wins. As the campaign continues, Arkansas is in the midst of its 39th season of women s basketball, owning an overall program record of (.613). In those 39 years, Arkansas has advanced to postseason play a total of 21 times, including 10 trips to the NCAA Tournament. FINE WITH NINE It is no secret Arkansas will have one of the smaller roster sizes across the country. In fact, with only nine players the Razorbacks have the smallest roster in the SEC. However, head coach Jimmy Dykes has embraced each and every player on the roster and has continued his daily preaching of Be Arkansas, saying he is fine with nine. I m fine with nine. That s where we are, Dykes said while addressing the media Nov. 7. With only nine players, the first 23 practices, we didn t back off one second because we have to be in top physical condition. If we only have nine going into the season, those nine have to be ready to play a lot of minutes That term Be Arkansas has helped me in recruiting, but it s also helped me define who we are as a basketball team. Being Arkansas is being a great teammate, being tough, being coachable, working your tail off every day, understanding what it takes to be a legit program at this level. I only want players who want to Be Arkansas and I have nine of them right now who want to Be Arkansas. SENIOR LEADERSHIP Coach Dykes has been open about his plans to build Arkansas women s basketball into a perennial top 25 program and what it will take to get there. Part of what it will take to get there is a change in mindset from his group of players. The way Coach Dykes lauds his two seniors Calli Berna and Jhasmin Bowen, it is evident those two players have bought in entirely to what Coach is teaching, despite having only one year to play for him. I fully expect eight or nine years from now to be holding some type of championship trophy and talking about this trophy was won back in my first year when Jhasmin Bowen and Calli Berna bought into how we re trying to do things. Those two have been terrific, Dykes said while addressing the media Jan. 16.
