One and done again: Utah eliminates Arkansas in NCAA's first round

AUSTIN, Texas — The University of Arkansas women’s basketball team didn’t have any better luck with a second chance in the Frank Erwin Center.

The No. 10 seeded Razorbacks fell behind 10-0 a little more than two minutes into their NCAA Tournament game Friday afternoon and got no closer, falling 92-69 to No. 7 seed Utah on Friday afternoon. Arkansas was a No. 4 seed a year ago but fell 66-62 at the hands of No. 13 seed Wright State in the opening round in Austin.

The Utes shot 52% from the floor, made 15 three-pointers and held off a couple of second-half charges before putting together an 18-0 fourth-quarter run for the knockout punch.
