Arkansas golfer Brooke Matthews waits to putt on the first hole green Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2020, during the third day of the inaugural Blessings Collegiate Invitational at the Blessings Golf Club in Johnson.

Brooke Matthews came up big for the University of Arkansas at the SEC Women's Golf Championships on Friday, rolling in a 4-foot birdie on the par-5 18th hole to send the Razorbacks into today's match play at the Greystone Golf & Country Club in Birmingham, Ala.

The No. 16 Razorbacks had a roller-coaster day, with a hot start leading a surge to third place, then a long dry stretch dropping them two strokes out of a tie for the eighth and final spot in match play with just a few holes left.
