FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Joseph Pinion scored a game-high 15 points off the bench and Trevon Brazile added 11 points to lead No. 10 Arkansas to an 83-49 exhibition win over Rogers State Monday night at Bud Walton Arena.

Nick Smith Jr., scored the first seven points of the game, but Rogers State battled back to make it a three-point game after an Isaac Johnson triple.

However, Arkansas answered with a 9-0 run and never looked back.

The Razorbacks used their length to block seven shots in the first half – four by Trevon Brazile — and Arkansas excited the crowd with three highlight-reel, allyoop dunks — two by Brazile. The Hogs owned a 37-20 lead at halftime.

Arkansas continued its dominance in the second half thanks to Pinion’s 12 points. Jordan Walsh also played a key role in the Hogs’ second half success with six points, four rebounds, two assists and two steals.
