Junior right-hander Gage Wood was utterly dominant against Texas' batters, notching strikeouts against 9-of-14 Longhorns with no walks, two hits and only one earned run on 57 pitches.
After shutting out the top-ranked team in the land Thursday, 9-0, Arkansas' bullpen picked up where Wood left off by striking out six batters with only two walks. Gabe Gaeckle made it through three innings of two-hit baseball with five strikeouts, while Aiden Jimenez closed out the final two frames with a K and a walk.
Arkansas' offense got going early with a four-run outing in the second and a run in each of the fifth and sixth innings. Brent Iredale had a homerun, while Charles Davalan, Wehiwa Aloy, Kuhio Aloy, Ryder Helfrick and Justin Thomas Jr. each collected hits.
As a whole, the offense finished 6-for-30 at the plate with five strikeouts, nine walks and a whopping five hit-by-pitches.
