UA women to play twice in Bahamas

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas’ women’s basketball team will play two games in the Bahamas Hoopfest Classic during the week of Thanksgiving.

The Razorbacks will play Fordham at 3 p.m. Central on Nov. 29 and Wisconsin at 6 p.m. on Nov. 30 at Kendal G.L. Isaacs Gymnasium in Nassau, Bahamas. The games were announced Tuesday by Youth Education & Sports Foundation, a Springdale-based nonprofit that is the sponsor of this year’s classic.

Other teams participating in this year's classic are Lehigh and Ball State.

“We’ll be playing two good teams - one NCAA Tournament team and one that’s a Power Five down there,” Arkansas coach Mike Neighbors said Tuesday during an event in Fort Smith.
