The Arkansas women's basketball team (23-12) stumped Stephen F. Austin (27-7) by defeating the Ladyjacks, 60-37, in the Postseason WNIT Second Round.

Outscoring the Ladyjacks 20-0 in fast break points and 18-0 in second chance opportunities, the Razorbacks move on to the Super 16 of the WNIT for the fourth time in program history.
