The Arkansas Club Baseball team swept the Kansas Jayhawks Club team during their 3 game series this past weekend. Brody Baumann started on the mound allowing no runs and tallying 8 strikeouts in 4 innings! Colin Lovelace went 2 for 3 with 2 singles, 2 runs, and a stolen base. Alex Ilgenfritz went 2 for 3 with 2 singles, 4 RBI's, and 1 run. This catapulted the hogs ahead of the Jayhawks leading to a run rule of 14-4 in the 6th inning.
The start for game 2 was given to Andrew Weidenfeller. He threw 95 pitches over 6 innings allowing only 1 run, 1 walk, and striking out 9! Adam Steen and Davis Johnson, finished off the 7th inning, and secured the another win for the Hogs. Bates, Carroll, Dooley, and Grunder each scored a run, which made the final score 4 - 2.
The starter for game 3 was Will Ransom. He struggled over 3.2 innings with 76 pitches allowing 6 hits, 6 earned runs, 4 walks, and managing 4 strikeouts. Davis Johnson picked up the win allowing 5 hits, 1 walk, 1 earned run, and striking out 7. Alex Ilgenfritz went 3 for 4 with 3 singles, 3 RBI's, and 3 runs. Dylan Henson went 2 for 4 with 2 doubles, 2 RBI's, and 3 runs. The Hogs went into the bottom of the 7th down by 2 with men on 3rd and 2nd. Ilgenfritz hit a hard ground ball to left field, allowing Dooley to score safely. Henson, however, had a much closer play at plate, where he collided with the catcher leading him drop the ball. This resulted in a walk off win of 8 - 7 for the final game of the series.
Overall the Hogs club team had a solid weekend against KU. After losing to them twice in a row in the Flint Hills Fall Classic Tournament, this past fall. The Hogs were eager to get payback against the Jayhawks. The Arkansas club team's spring record now stands at 4 - 1, with the overall record for the year at 10 - 3. #WPS #NoComplacency

The Arkansas Club Baseball team is ranked for the first time this season! After struggling for the past couple of years, the Hogs have turned it around and are headed in the right direction. Many of the players were excited to see how sweeping D1 Jayhawks Club Baseball would affect the team's rank in NCBA D2.
We hope to press on and climb the leaderboard as high as we can!

Sunday April 30th was the last day of the regular season for club baseball teams across the nation. The Hogs had one game left to play against conference rival Missouri S&T to decide which of the two would earn a spot in the Great American Regional Tournament. Unfortunately, a scheduling mistake made by the umpires left the Hogs without any officials for the game. Rules dictated that the Hogs forfeit, thus losing their chance of a postseason run. However, Missouri S&T was a class act even after the forfeiture and played the hogs in an exhibition game to finish off the regular season.
With the season ending on such a bad note many members of the team are fired up and cannot wait for the fall season to begin. This club has had a complete turnaround from the '21-'22 season. We hope to add more depth, skill, and commitment to our team with the goal of being NCBA D2 World Series Champions!
We'd also like to thank this season's treasurer and our only senior Nolan Carroll! He's had a huge impact during his time as a member of Arkansas Club Baseball. Not only was he a great leader and 2nd baseman, but a great person to have as a teammate. We wish him all the best!
