FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Meleek Thomas scored a career-high 26 points as No. 21 Arkansas scored the final six points to rally past Winthrop 84-83 on Tuesday night.

Arkansas took their final lead with 11 seconds left when Nick Pringle scored at the rim after a Winthrop turnover. After the basket, he and Winthrop’s Logan Duncomb became tangled. As the officials attempted to break up the entanglement, Pringle threw Duncomb to the floor, leading to a brief delay as the play went to review.

Pringle and Duncomb were issued offsetting technical fouls and four players — two from Arkansas and two from Winthrop — were ejected for coming on to the floor from the bench. Duncomb’s technical resulted in him fouling out, as well.
