Arkansas Women’s Basketball Transfer Portal Updates: Incoming and Outgoing Transfers
The transfer portal for women’s basketball has been buzzing with activity, and the Arkansas women’s basketball team is right in the mix. With several key players entering the portal, the Razorbacks are set for some big changes ahead of the upcoming season.
One of the most notable incoming transfers is guard Izzy Higginbottom, who comes to Arkansas from Arkansas State. Higginbottom, a Batesville native, was a scoring machine in her junior season, averaging 22.2 points per game and leading the team in multiple statistical categories. Her addition to the Razorbacks roster is sure to bring a new dynamic to the team.
On the other hand, the Razorbacks are also losing some key players to the transfer portal. Guard/Forward Saylor Poffenbarger, who transferred to Arkansas from UConn, is still uncommitted as of now. Her departure leaves a void in the team’s lineup, but the Razorbacks will have to find a way to fill that gap before the start of the season.
Another major loss for the Razorbacks is guard Taliah Scott, who led the team in scoring but has decided to transfer to Auburn. Scott’s departure will undoubtedly be felt on the court, as she was a standout player for Arkansas in her freshman season.
Lastly, guard/forward Jersey Wolfenbarger has also entered the transfer portal and will be heading to LSU. Wolfenbarger, a former 5-star recruit, showed promise in her two seasons at Arkansas and will be a valuable addition to the LSU roster.
Overall, the transfer portal has brought both excitement and challenges for the Arkansas women’s basketball team. With new faces coming in and key players leaving, the Razorbacks will have to adapt quickly to ensure a successful season ahead. Stay tuned for more updates as the transfer portal continues to shake up the college basketball landscape.
