Freshman delivers right away

FAYETTEVILLE -- Heston Kjerstad had a debut at-bat to remember Friday for the Arkansas Razorbacks.

The freshman from Amarillo, Texas, entrusted with the No. 5 spot in the batting order, drilled a two-out single to right-center field on an 0-1 count to drive home Jax Biggers and open the scoring in what turned into a 14-2 rout of Bucknell at Baum Stadium.

The 6-3 left-handed hitter added a second-inning double off the wall in right field and came around for his second run, then hit a single in the third inning en route to a 3-for-4 performance with three runs scored.
