East Tennessee State defeats Arkansas 94-85

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Tommmy Hubbard scored a season-high 32 points and East Tennessee State overcame an early deficit to hand Arkansas its second consecutive home loss 94-85 Friday night.

Hubbard led the Buccaneers (3-3) in a sizzling night from behind the arc, hitting five 3-pointers as East Tennessee State nailed 11 of 14 3s as a team.

Arkansas had won 45 consecutive nonconference home games before the recent two-game losing streak and hadn’t lost a nonconference game in Bud Walton Arena under third-year coach John Pelphrey before this week.

The Razorbacks (2-3) got 32 points from Rotnei Clarke in the loss, with the sophomore hitting on 10 of 17 3-point attempts while the rest of the team made just 1 of 10 from 3-point range.
