In the record books
Former Union County standout Julie Smith etched her name in the Arkansas Tech record book on Tuesday. The sophomore hit eight 3-pointers in a 113-33 win over Rhema Bible College in Broken Arrow, Okla.
Smith, who led the way for Tech with a career-high 24 points, set a new single-game Tech record with eight three-pointers in the game, breaking the old mark of seven set by Dawn Grell against Arkansas-Monticello in 1994.
Smith was 8-of-9 from 3-point range and scored her 24 points in 16 minutes of action.
“Julie is a great three-point shooter,” said Arkansas Tech coach Dave Wilburs. “If she is open, she’ll knock it down. We’ve seen it in practice every day and tonight we saw it in a game.”
Smith, who played at Union and El Dorado before graduating from Hot Springs Lakeside, currently leads the Gulf South Conference in 3-point percentage. In 10 games, she’s hit 14-of-22 for 63.6 percent.
