HOOVER, Ala. -- The Arkansas Razorbacks continued their push toward the school's single-season home run record on Saturday at the SEC Tournament.
First baseman Jared Gates launched a solo home run in the third inning of the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville's 2-1 loss in a tourney semifinal against LSU to give the Razorbacks 84 home runs on the season, the second-most in school history.
The 84th home run surpassed the 83 from last season, when the Razorbacks had a big bopper in Chad Spanberger, who launched 20, including five in the SEC Tournament.
The Razorbacks' school record is the 92 home runs hit in 64 games in 2010, an average of 1.
