CHALK TALK Each team earned blowout victories in their season openers. … Arkansas placed seven players in double figures led by junior transfer Alexis Tolefree’s 19 points, including five 3-pointers in the win over Northwestern (La.) State. … The Razorbacks are averaging almost 105 points per game through three games (two exhibitions and the opener). … Texas-Arlington will have an overall size advantage, but Arkansas coach Mike Neighbors likes what the post duo of Kiara Williams and Taylah Thomas bring together. … Both teams like to play at a fast pace, which should make for an entertaining game, Neighbors said. … Neighbors has used a variety of lineups, often subbing five players at a time, and he will continue to see that those top 10 players all see action in the first quarter. … The Lady Mavericks, who were picked to finish tied for third in the Sun Belt Conference preseason coaches’ poll, rolled over Jackson State 98-63 as freshman Clare Chastain led the way with 16 points in only 18 minutes of action. … UTA scored 32 points off 27 Jackson State turnovers. … Arkansas rolled over UTA 91-57 last year in Bud Walton Arena, but the Lady Mavericks will play host this time where they were 16-2 a year ago. … While several Razorbacks have excelled offensively, freshman Roukia Doumbia, senior Bailey Zimmerman, junior Jailyn Mason and redshirt sophomore A’Tyanna Gaulden have stood out defensively, Neighbors said.
