LITTLE ROCK – Women's basketball returns to the Jack Stephens Center on Tuesday as Little Rock (1-3) faces Oklahoma (3-2) at 6:30 p.m.
 
Little Rock has an all-time record of 1-6 against Oklahoma with the lone win coming in 2014 — the first and only time the Sooners visited the Jack Stephens Center. In that game, the Trojans led the Sooners 43-29 at halftime before Oklahoma outscored Little Rock 33-23 in the second half. The push was too little, too late for Oklahoma as Little Rock hung on to earn the 66-62 victory. Of the 40 minutes, Little Rock led for 39:34 while Oklahoma led for just 11 seconds. The last two games in the series have occurred in Norman as Oklahoma earned 13- and 10-point wins, respectively. Tuesday will be just the third time Oklahoma has visited Little Rock and just the second time the Sooners have played at the Jack.
 
  • A win against Oklahoma would be Little Rock's 150th victory in the Jack Stephens Center.
  • A victory would put the Trojans at 2-0 inside the Jack against the Sooners and it would give Little Rock a 2-1 series lead when playing in Little Rock.
  • A victory would be Little Rock's first over a Power Five school since defeating Texas A&M in the NCAA Tournament in 2015.
  • A win for Little Rock over Oklahoma would be the Trojans' first against a Big 12 school since Oklahoma's last visit to the Jack in 2014.
  • Little Rock has led or tied each of its first four opponents at halftime this season. The Trojans haven't done that since the start of the 2012-13 season.
  • The Trojans' 80.4 free-throw percentage ranks ninth in the nation and leads the Sun Belt.
  • Kyra Collier is 11-for-12 from the foul line and has a free-throw percentage of 91.7 — 27th-best in the nation and second-best in the Sun Belt.
  • Little Rock has committed the 10th-fewest turnovers in the nation and the fewest in the Sun Belt this season with 55.
  • The Trojans' turnover margin of 5.00 ranks 43rd nationally and ranks second in the Sun Belt.
  • Kyra Collier and Monique Townson are each averaging 2.5 steals per game — second-most in the Sun Belt.
  • Sophomore Anna Hurlburt ranks 54th in the nation and third in the Sun Belt for blocked shots per game this season at 2.00.
  • Monique Townson's 17 assists through four games are the most by a Trojan since Taylor Ford (2013-14).
 
After Tuesday's game, Little Rock will head to St. Louis to face the Saint Louis Billikens at 7 p.m., at Chaifetz Arena.
