Late 3-pointer lifts Horned Frogs past Razorbacks in exhibition

It wasn’t a pretty game, but coaches get what they wanted to see from TCU, Arkansas in charity exhibition

Published

on

FORT WORTH, Texas — Brendan Wenzel sank a 3-pointer with 17 seconds left to lift TCU to a 66-65 come-from-behind win versus No. 16 Arkansas in a charity exhibition game Friday night, played at Dickies Arena.

TCU only had three players score in double figures. Big man Ernest Udeh, Jr., finished with 13 points and eight rebounds while Frankie Collins and Vasean Allette each scored 10 points.

Arkansas was led by Adou Thiero. The junior had 20 points, eight rebounds and four assists. Boogie Fland contributed 11 points.

The Razorbacks had a 13-point lead disappear thanks to an 8-0 run by TCU to end the third quarter. However, the Razorbacks held the lead throughout the fourth stanza until Wenzel’s 3-pointer.

Arkansas did not have a quality look to end the game. Since the contest was four-quarters and teams only shot free throws after the fifth foul of each quarter. TCU had only committed one foul and was able to commit three fouls to run down the clock. After the fourth foul of the quarter by TCU, there was just one second left for a last-second 3-point try.

Arkansas opens the regular season next Wednesday (Nov. 6) versus Lipscomb at Bud Walton Arena. Tipoff is set for 7 pm and the game will be broadcast on SEC Network Plus.

FIRST QUARTER:

• TCU scored first and Arkansas answered with a Zvonimir Ivisic 3-pointer. The quarter featured one tie and six lead changes.

• Adou Thiero scored 11 of the Razorbacks’ 19 points in the quarter.

SECOND QUARTER

• Arkansas out-scored TCU 20-11.

• Again, the game was back-and-fourth with three ties and three lead changes.

• Down one, 32-31 with 2:52 left in the period, Arkansas closed the quarter on a 7-0 run. Karter Knox hit a 3-pointer to give Arkansas a 33-32 lead. Boogie Fland followed with a mid-range jumper and Knox capped the run with a jumper at the elbow.

THIRD QUARTER:

• Arkansas grabbed its largest lead of the game, 54-41 (13 points) with 1:42 left.

• However, TCU out-scored Arkansas, 18-15 in the period as the Horned Frogs finished the quarter on an 8-0.
