TAT: By the Numbers (Feb. 12)


These stats were originally compiled for the February 12, 2014 issue of The Arkansas Traveler.

3 - True road wins by the Arkansas men’s basketball team since Mike Anderson became the head coach. The Razorbacks beat Auburn in each of the last two seasons and beat Vanderbilt Saturday.
38 - True road games played by Arkansas since it won two consecutive road wins. The last time it happened was when the Razorbacks beat No. 18 Ole Miss and Georgia back-to-back in the 2009-10 season. Arkansas will have a chance to snap that streak Thursday at Missouri.
2.6 - Seconds remaining when sophomore Michael Qualls made his game-winning three-pointer against Vanderbilt. It was his second game-winning shot of the season, after his dunk with 0.2 seconds remaining beat No. 13 Kentucky.
3 - Times the lead changed in the final 27 seconds of the Arkansas-Vanderbilt game Saturday. Senior Coty Clarke made a free throw with 27 seconds left to give Arkansas the lead, then Vanderbilt took the lead on a pair of free throws before Qualls’ three that gave the Razorbacks the lead for good.
11 - Points scored by senior Mardracus Wade against Vanderbilt, tying a season-high he set in the season opener against SIU-Edwardsville. He also played 27 minutes, which also tied a season-high.
80 - Percent of free throws made by Arkansas against Alabama Feb. 5. It was the second-consecutive game the Razorbacks made at least 80 percent of their free throws, after making 92.6 percent against LSU.
18 - Margin of defeat by the Arkansas women’s basketball team against No. 6 South Carolina Sunday. It was the largest loss of the season by the Razorbacks, who had an average margin of defeat of 6.4 points per game in their seven previous losses.
44 - Combined turnovers forced by Arkansas against Florida and No. 6 South Carolina. The Razorbacks have a turnover margin of plus-23 in those two games.
6.6 - Average turnover margin by the Razorbacks. Before the game against South Carolina, Arkansas had a plus-6.5 turnover margin, which ranked 10th in the NCAA and second in the Southeastern Conference.
15 - Points scored by freshman Kelsey Brooks against Florida Thursday. That is a career-high in an SEC game. She also totaled seven steals against the Gators.
6 - RBI by junior Kelsey Fagan in her debut for the Arkansas softball team Friday. The transfer from Florida recorded one RBI against UC Davis, then collected five against UNLV in the second game of the doubleheader.
6 - Home runs hit by the Razorbacks in their season-opening tournament in Las Vegas. Fagan hit a pair, while seniors Amanda Geile and Clarisa Navarro, sophomore Claire Clark and freshman Parker Pocklington each had one.
