FAYETTEVILLE -- Arkansas Coach Dave Van Horn had won every series against his former assistant Rob Childress since Childress and the Texas A&M Aggies joined the SEC in 2012.
That streak ended on Sunday when second-ranked Texas A&M rode senior Kyle Simonds' complete-game eight-hitter to beat Arkansas 6-2 before an announced crowd of 6,081 at Baum Stadum.
"He's definitely taken my lunch money the last few years since we've been in the SEC, so it's nice to finally get him," Childress said of Van Horn.
The Razorbacks lost a third consecutive SEC home series for the first time since Kentucky, South Carolina and Auburn won two of three each in a span of five weekends at Baum Stadium in 2012.
