Arkansas Drops Tuesday Match Against Boston College in Five
While the Hogs took control in the second and third frames, a late surge by the Boston College Eagles forced a fifth set on Tuesday and Arkansas ultimately fell 3-2 (23-25, 25-15, 25-23, 15-25, 12-15).
Outside hitters Lolo Lambert and Parker Duncan led the offensive effort for the Hogs with 19 kills and 12 digs apiece, the former being a career high for both. Sophomore setter Kiki Remensperger paced Arkansas with 45 assists and 11 digs, her third double-double of the season.
In her second outing as Arkansas’ primary libero, redshirt junior Kylie Weeks chipped in a team-high 18 digs, her new personal best. The Hogs tallied 12 team blocks on the night defensively, with five from both Duncan and fellow freshman Journey Peppers.
Set 1
Arkansas slipped to a 3-1 deficit early in the opening set, but the Hogs didn’t need much time to adjust and quickly took a 6-5 lead off a kill from Romani Thurman. BC was never far behind, but Arkansas limited its opportunities and held on to a 15-12 advantage at the media break. The Razorbacks grew their lead to 18-13 shortly after, which prompted an Eagles timeout. From there, Boston College dug deep and went on a 7-2 run to tie it at 20-all. They traded blows from there, but three straight points from the Eagles down the stretch secured the 25-23 set victory for BC.
Set 2
The Hogs quickly shook off the first set and a three-point run that kicked off with a kill from Duncan put them up 9-6. The Eagles couldn’t manage more than one point at a time and Arkansas kept its foot on the gas. A five-point streak with two kills from Thurman and one from Lambert pushed the Razorback advantage to 18-10, and Boston College called for time. It didn’t make much difference and Arkansas kept on going, coming within two of the set victory at 23-12. The Eagles made a bit of a push from there, but one more Hog block made it 25-15 for Arkansas, knotting the match at 1-1.
Set 3
The early part of set three was tight again, but a 5-1 spurt by the Razorbacks helped shift the momentum their way and made the score 12-8. Any chance the Eagles had to catch up didn’t last long until two Arkansas errors and a BC kill made it 17-16 in favor of the visitors quickly. The Eagles kept punching, but the Hogs found a way to answer every time, maintaining a 23-21 lead and forcing Boston College to a huddle. The Razorbacks staved off the Eagles just long enough and a kill from Lambert shut the door on set three for Arkansas 25-23.
Set 4
The Hogs used a big 5-1 run early on, capped off by a huge solo block from Remensperger, and went up 7-3. Boston College quickly responded though and tied it at 8-8. From there, the Eagles scored six of the next eight points and switched the lead to their favor at 14-10. Arkansas had no real response as Boston College rattled off a 9-1 run, making it 24-13. The Razorbacks managed to add two more after that, but Boston College finished it out 25-15 to force a deciding fifth set.
Set 5
The Eagles jumped out to a quick 4-1 lead, but Arkansas chased closely and came within one off a kill from Lambert at 6-5. Boston College kept on going though and had an 8-5 advantage as the teams switched sides. Three straight Arkansas points, including a solo block from Duncan, cut the deficit to one, but the Eagles didn’t let the lead get away. Following a timeout, Arkansas made it 13-12, which had BC huddle. After that though, the Hogs ran out of time as the Eagles finished it 15-12 for the 3-2 match victory.

It’s been a bone-dry year in Arkansas. It’s now the 7th driest year on record in Little Rock since record-keeping began in 1875, as of April 20.
24 days so far this year in Little Rock have received measurable rainfall. 12 days received a trace amount of rain, meaning there were no rainfall measurements to report (it was too little to record), as it was just a sprinkle or a few spits.
Only 4 days have received an inch or more of rain so far this year. Those occurred on April 4, March 7, February 14, and January 24. January’s “rain” was really winter precipitation.
April is usually the rainiest month of the year in Arkansas. In Little Rock, April on average receives 5.59 inches of rainfall. So far this April, as of April 20, Little Rock has only recorded 1.17″ of rain for the month.
The rainfall deficit over the last 6 months is well over a foot for much of Arkansas, including Little Rock, North Little Rock, Pine Bluff, and Harrison.
Spring is the rainy season, and summer is the dry season. If rain isn’t recorded soon, the drought will persist into the summer. In fact, the latest seasonal drought outlook shows that while some areas of Arkansas could see improvements, the drought continues into July.
To fully end the drought, parts of central and northeast Arkansas need more than 25 inches of rain over the next 3 months. Parts of northwest Arkansas need between 15 and 20 inches of rain over the next 3 months. The rest of the state needs between 20 and 25 inches of rain over the next 3 months. All of this rain would need to be received slowly, not all at one time.
The odds of receiving this much rain slowly over the next 3 months are very low.
