FAYETTEVILLE — The ball is flying a long distance at Baum Stadium at this weekend's NCAA regional.
Through four games, Arkansas, Southern Miss, Dallas Baptist and Oral Roberts have combined to hit 17 home runs in the Fayetteville Regional. That is already more than the 14 home runs combined in seven regional games at Baum Stadium last June.
The 17 home runs are the most at any regional site this weekend. Fourteen home runs have been hit in Gainesville, Fla., where No. 1 national seed Florida is hosting Jacksonville, Florida Atlantic and Columbia.
"I'll tell you what, it flies out of here," Southern Miss coach Scott Berry said.
