📈 STOCK UP

🔺 Best Around. No surprise here, Hagen Smith was named SEC Pitcher of the Year! The all-time Arkansas strikeout king becomes the third Razorback in program history to earn the honor. He boasts a 7-0 record with a 1.35 ERA and 110 strikeouts over 10 SEC starts. Hagen is a semifinalist for the Dick Howser Trophy, Golden Spikes Award, and National Pitcher of the Year Award.

🔺 Hog Heaven. Seven Diamond Hogs earned All-SEC honors, led by Hagen’s first-team selection. Peyton Stovall and Wehiwa Aloy were named to the second-team. Gabe Gaeckle and Nolan Souza earned Freshman All-SEC honors. Jared Sprague-Lott and Peyton Holt landed on the SEC All-Defensive Team.

🔺 Double Trouble. It’s NCAA Doubles Championships time for the 30th-ranked duo of Božo Barun and Jared Horwood. They’ll play No. 64 Stian Klaassen and Sacchitt Sharrma of San Diego in the Round of 32 in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Women’s tennis player Carolina Gomez Alonso fell in the Round of 64 at the NCAA Singles Championships yesterday.

🔺 We’ll Be Back. The No. 10 women’s golf team finished the NCAA Championships in 10th-place to end this historic season. The Razorbacks posted a 25-over 1177. Maria José Marin scored 5-under and finished tied for fourth-place individually. Her 283 score is the lowest four-round score since Stacy Lewis’ 282 in 2007.
