“We are excited to be able to continue to play basketball this year,” Arkansas head coach Tom Collen said. “Our players have worked really hard since our last game and they are excited for the next opportunity. We all just want the chance to get back on the floor and continue to grow as a team and see what we can accomplish with what we’ve been given.”
Tickets for the game go on sale Tuesday morning. Razorback season ticket holders have until 6 p.m. Tuesday evening to reserve their seats. Reserved seats are $11 for the game. General admission adult tickets are $7 and general admission youth tickets are $6. General admission student tickets will be on sale for just $1.
