Wolfenbarger, the consensus five-star recruit out of Northside High School in Fort Smith, has started to find her footing in the college game, as this week saw her help Arkansas beat both Sam Houston and Belmont in back-to-back days.
Against Sam Houston, Wolfenbarger put forth the best game of her young career, going for a seasonbest 16 points on an efficient 5-8 shooting clip. She also hit three of her four triples, showcasing the guard skills that make a player with her 6-5 frame so unique.
She got into double-figures for the second straight game against Belmont, who was receiving votes in the WBCA Coaches Poll, dropping in 10 more points. Her night helped the Hogs drop 83 points on Belmont, the most surrendered by the Bruins since March 6, 2020.
Wolfenbarger made three of her seven shots, and hit three of her four attempts from the foul line. She also pulled down four rebounds and dished a season-high three assists, showcasing her versatility.
Over the two games in two days stretch, Wolfenbarger, who came off the bench in both contests, averaged 13 points, 3.5 boards, 1.5 assists and 0.5 steals per game.
