FAYETTEVILLE — Drew Gray was already excited to play baseball at Arkansas. On Thursday, he had even more reason to be.
A 2021 Arkansas commit, Drew was ecstatic when his older brother, Evan, called and told him of his plans to commit to the Razorbacks. Evan, a right-handed pitcher, becomes the 17th member of the Razorbacks’ 2019 recruiting class.
He is the No. 119 rated prospect in Illinois, according to Prep Baseball Report Illinois.
“In my mind it was something I just couldn’t pass up,” Evan said Friday. “The opportunity as a baseball player to play there … visiting there yesterday, it’s what felt right and that’s where I wanted to go.
