The greatest regular season in Arkansas baseball history is now carrying over its magic to the postseason, too.
After winning the SEC regular season title (becoming only the second SEC team ever to take all 10 series), the No. 1 Razorbacks tore through the SEC tournament, culminating with a decisive 7-2 hammer drop on Tennessee in the finals to win the program’s first SEC tourney title.
Cullen Smith, Arkansas’ first baseman, hit a two-run home run in the eighth inning to slam the door on the Volunteers and make the final result all but a foregone conclusion given closer Kevin Kopps was on the mound.
