FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas and Oklahoma will renew their baseball series Friday with a game at the Shriners Hospitals for Children College Classic in Houston.
It will be the first regular-season meeting between the teams since April 2012 when the Sooners won in Norman, Okla., and the first of two scheduled meetings this year. They are scheduled to play again March 17 at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark in Oklahoma City.
But Friday won’t be the first time this year’s Arkansas and Oklahoma clubs have seen each other on the field. They played in a fall scrimmage five months ago at Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.
