NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP GAME / UCLA 89, ARKANSAS 78 : SPOTLIGHT : SECOND CHANCES

UCLA outrebounded Arkansas, 50-39, including a 21-12 edge in offensive rebounds. Arkansas’ Corliss Williamson said that that was the difference in the game.

“Their second-chance shots just killed us,” Williamson said. “They not only kept us from getting any offensive boards, they hit the boards so hard on their offensive end. They had a lot of guys who just stepped up and made things happen.”
