ABILENE, Texas (Interstat) — The Arkansas women’s basketball team looks to rebound from its first home loss when it visits SMU on Thursday night. The Razorbacks (7-2) had their four-game win streak snapped with a 69-51 defeat to Harvard on Sunday. Guard Taleyah Jones led Arkansas with 19 points in that contest. Arkansas is 2-1 in true road games this season, including a win at Drake. The Mustangs (3-5) enter with momentum after an 83-70 home victory over Southern Mississippi on Monday. Zahra King scored 23 points and Tyi Skinner added 18 for SMU in that win. The team has struggled away from home, going 0-3, but is 3-2 at Moody Coliseum. Thursday’s nonconference matchup at Moody Coliseum will be the final tune-up for both teams before weekend games. Arkansas hosts Jackson State on Sunday, while SMU welcomes Syracuse. The Razorbacks have shown a high-powered offense, scoring 80 or more points in five games. SMU has topped 80 points in three of its wins but has also been held to 60 or fewer in three of its losses. Arkansas guard Taleyah Jones, who averages a team-high 19 points from the Harvard game, will be a focal point for the Mustangs’ defense. The game tips off at 7 p.m. Central.
