Where Arkansas baseball is ranked in latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll
Arkansas baseball made another jump in the latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll. Come see where the Hogs are ranked.
Arkansas baseball rose four spots in the latest USA TODAY Coaches Poll after a 2-1 week that featured a home series victory over Oklahoma. The Razorbacks (34-18, 15-12 SEC) are No. 14 in the latest poll that was released Monday, May 11.
The midweek schedule for Dave Van Horn's squad is over, so Arkansas returned from exams to the diamond with a three-game set against the Sooners. The Hogs strolled to a 12-2 run-rule victory in the opener on Friday, with Hunter Dietz tossing a complete game in the seven-inning affair. The Razorbacks then rediscovered some eighth-inning magic in Game 2 , erasing an 8-5 deficit and pulling away for a 12-8 victory to clinch a victorious series.
Zack Stewart provided the go-ahead two-run double. However, Arkansas failed to finish off the sweep as its pitching staff ran out of quality options on Sunday. Oklahoma rode a seven-run seventh inning to a 15-10 win.
UCLA remains the No. 1 team in the country. The rest of the top-five is No.
