The Game
Navy and Arkansas will meet Saturday in the championship game of the Nugget Classic in Reno, Nev. There will be live statistics available from the game, but no video stream.

Navy Update
Navy reached the championship game of the Nugget Classic with a 79-62 victory over tournament-host Nevada Friday afternoon. The victory was the third in a row for the Mids, as well as the 600th in Navy women's basketball history.

Arkansas Update
Arkansas recorded a 91-61 victory over Memphis Friday to qualify for the championship game of the event. The Razorbacks have won all five of their games this season, with Friday's win over the Tigers being their first contest played away from home. The Razorbacks will be facing a Patriot League team for the first time.

The Series
Saturday's game will be the first between the Mids and the Razorbacks, as well as just the sixth for the Mids against an SEC team (though the second this year). It also will be the first game for Navy against a team from Arkansas. The game against the Razorbacks will mark the 38th different state Navy will have played a team from in school history.
