FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas' women are back in the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2003.
The Razorbacks will face Dayton in the first round of the tournament on Saturday at 3:05 p.m. in College Station, Texas.
Arkansas, an at-large selection, is the No. 6 seed in the Raleigh region, while the Flyers are the No. 11 seed.
The winner of the Arkansas-Dayton game will play the winner of host-school Texas A&M and Albany. The Aggies are the defending NCAA champion and are coached by former Razorbacks coach Gary Blair.
Arkansas is 23-8, but was never ranked during the regular season. The Razorbacks won a school-record 10 regular season conference games, including eight straight at one point.
Arkansas earned its first SEC Tournament win in seven years over Ole Miss earlier this month before a one-point loss to LSU in the quarterfinals round.
The Razorbacks picked up one of the program's most notable wins on Feb. 23, beating Tennessee 72-71 in overtime on the road. It was Arkansas' first win over the Lady Vols in 15 seasons and first ever at Tennessee.
