FAYETTEVILLE -- The University of Arkansas' pitching depth will get another big test this week with five games, starting tonight against Grand Canyon in a two-game midweek series.
Right-hander Will McEntire, a 6-4 freshman, has been tabbed to start for the Razorbacks (9-5), who fell five spots to No. 15 in this week's USA Today Coaches poll after going 2-2 in home games against Illinois State and South Alabama.
Ace right-hander Connor Noland (2-0, 2.00 ERA) is expected to return from resting a strained oblique muscle to start SEC play at Mississippi State on Friday night.
