FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas received a commitment Thursday from an in-state sophomore pitcher.
Monticello left-hander Nick Griffin (6-2, 160 pounds) became the Razorbacks' fourth commit in the class of 2020 and third from the state of Arkansas. PrepBaseballReport.com rates him the state's sixth-best player in his class.
"I was born and raised in Arkansas and it has always been a dream since the first time I went to Baum Stadium to be a Razorback," said Griffin, who was offered last week. "Now I can say it's a dream come true."
Griffin committed over the phone to Arkansas pitching coach Wes Johnson on Thursday afternoon.
