The University of Arkansas at Little Rock women snapped a three-game losing streak Tuesday, even though the Trojans did not shake their second-half struggles.
Junior forward Raeyana DeGray scored 16 points, sophomore Kyra Collier handed out eight assists, and freshman Tori Lasker was 6 of 6 from the free-throw line in the final 54.5 seconds as the Trojans held off Oklahoma for a 68-56 victory at the Jack Stephens Center.
The Trojans (2-3) never trailed but an 18-point third-quarter advantage dwindled to as little as 52-49 with 5:27 to play.
"That's just what we are," Trojans Coach Joe Foley said.
