Sweet sweep

FAYETTEVILLE -- The No. 10 Arkansas baseball team put its final touches on SEC prep by winning its second game in as many days over an old rival.

The Razorbacks rallied from a two-run deficit to outlast Texas 7-5 before a crowd of 4,718 at Baum Stadium on Tuesday to complete a two-game sweep of the Longhorns, formerly the Hogs' chief adversary in the Southwest Conference.

Arkansas opens SEC play at home with a three-game series against Kentucky on Friday-Sunday.

Sophomore Matt Cronin escaped a bases-loaded jam in the eighth inning and polished off Texas with a tidy ninth, then flashed the downward 'Horns sign as he left the mound to join his celebrating teammates.
