CHALK TALK UALR beat Memphis in the Tigers' season opener last season, but the only current Trojan to score double-digit points in that game was Mayra Caicedo. ... Memphis hired Katrina Merriweather as head coach in March after Merriweather helped Wright State to its first NCAA Tournament win in program history, a 66-62 upset of fourth-seeded Arkansas.
