Cats Come Up Short at Arkansas
Coty Clarke had 14 points and 12 rebounds as Arkansas did its best to make a renewed case for a NCAA tournament bid with a convincing 73-60 win over Kentucky on Saturday. Clarke also had six assists for the Razorbacks (18-11, 9-7 Southeastern Conference), who improved to 17-1 at home. Their only loss in Bud Walton Arena this season came to then-No. 6 Syracuse on Nov. 30, and they are now 33-4 at home under second-year coach Mike Anderson. Marshawn Powell had 15 points and BJ Young added 13 for Arkansas, which snapped a two-game losing streak with the win.
