Heinrich joins Diamond Hogs' 2019 class

While most eyes yesterday were rightfully fixated on the football program's recruiting efforts, Dave Van Horn added another piece to his 2019 class.

Right-handed pitcher Kevin Heinrich (6-3, 180) of Coral Springs, Fla., committed to the Razorbacks on Friday. Heinrich becomes the 18th member of the class and the 11th pitcher – eighth right-hander – to pledge to Arkansas.

"I absolutely fell in love with the school as soon as I stepped on campus with just the baseball facilities, the school itself, the surrounding areas," said Heinrich, who was also considering Florida, Appalachian State, Charlotte and Rutgers.
