'Mature' response: Noland bounces back to forge sweep
Arkansas pitcher Connor Noland throws during a game against Mississippi State on Saturday, April 20, 2019, in Fayetteville. FAYETTEVILLE -- A week after University of Arkansas pitcher Connor Noland couldn't get an out at Vanderbilt, he shut down No. 2 Mississippi State on Saturday at Baum-Walker Stadium.
Noland, a freshman right-hander from Greenwood, went a season-long 7 2/3 innings and got plenty of run support as the No. 10 Razorbacks beat the Bulldogs 10-2 to complete a three-game sweep.
"Today the story was Connor Noland," Arkansas Coach Dave Van Horn said. "I mean, he was just lights outs."
