FAYETTEVILLE – Boogie Fland and Jonas Aidoo each recorded double-doubles, while Trevon Brazile was one rebound shy of the feat, to lead Arkansas to a 95-67 victory over North Carolina A&T Saturday afternoon at Bud Walton Arena.
Overall, seven Razorbacks scored in double figures and Arkansas dished out a season-high 26 assists (on 37 made baskets).
Fland finished with 12 points and 11 assists to record his first career double-double. The last Razorback to have double-double in points and assists was Jalen Tate (15 & 10) versus Georgia in 2021. The last Razorback freshman to accomplish the feat was Courtney Fortson (12 & 10) versus Oklahoma in Dec. 2008. Fland has also dished out at least five assists in five straight games, marking the first time a Hog has done that since Jalen Harris in the 20189-19 season.
Aidoo tallied his 10th career double-double, and first as a Razorback, with his season-high 17 points and season-high 11 rebounds. He added a season-high three blocked shots.
Brazile came off the bench to score 11 points and grab nine rebounds while adding three blocked shots and a season-high three assists.
This marked the third time, and second consecutive game, at least six Razorbacks have scored in double figures. Other Hogs to reach double figures were Adou Thiero (14), Karter Knox (11), D.J. Wagner (10) and Billy Richmond III (10).
Arkansas native Ryan Forrest (Marion) led AT with 19 points and eight assists while Fayetteville native Landon Glasper scored 16 points.
Arkansas returns to Bud Walton Arena to host Oakland on Monday (Dec. 30). Tipoff is set for 7 pm and the game will be televised on ESPN2.
