Former Bloom Township and Cloud County Community College star Jemal Farmer made his debut for the University of Arkansas a memorable one by scoring 28 points, grabbing 12 rebounds and dishing out 6 assists as Arkansas dispatched Alcorn State 130-68.

Farmer, a 6'5" wing, connected on 9-16 shots from the floor and 9-10 shots from the free throw line in 33 minutes of action. 6'9" fellow Bloom Township alum Delvon Johnson, who also made his Arkansas debut, scored 6 points, grabbed 3 rebounds and recorded a steal for the Razorbacks.

Arkansas guard Rotnei Clark drained 13 three-point baskets in the game en route to scoring 51 points. Arkansas will play Louisville on Tuesday night.
