Spectacular Joe scores 34 for UA
FAYETTEVILLE -- Isaiah Joe joined the University of Arkansas basketball team's 30-point club Saturday night.
The 6-5 freshman guard from Fort Smith Northside scored 34 points in 28 minutes to lead the Razorbacks to a 121-89 victory over Florida International before an announced crowd of 8,920 in Walton Arena.
Joe became the 46th Arkansas player to score 30 or more points and first since Daryl Macon had 33 against Tennessee in a 95-93 overtime victory for the Razorbacks last season.
"All the players that make it to that club are great players," Joe said. "Just to be following in their footsteps is a great honor."
Joe hit 11 of 14 shots, including 10 of 13 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws.
