UALR works up sweat in clincher

The UALR Trojans entered their matchup with Georgia State having never lost to the Panthers in a Sun Belt Conference women's basketball game, with six of their seven victories coming by 15 or more points.

Form held Saturday at the Jack Stephens Center in Little Rock, but the University of Arkansas at Little Rock's 52-45 title-clinching victory was anything but easy and never really a certainty until the final 42 seconds.

The Trojans (20-7, 14-1) led by 12 with 5:02 left to play in the third quarter, but when Georgia State's Tiffany Holston hit a layup with 2:19 left to play in the game, what looked like a sure coronation got a lot more interesting.
