Diamond Hogs set to open fall ball with high roster count

FAYETTEVILLE — During a time covid-19 quarantines have the potential to limit who can practice for days at a time, Arkansas’ baseball team has strength in numbers this fall.

The Razorbacks are scheduled to open their fall practice season Friday with 52 players on the roster, including 31 players back from the team that went 11-5 during the 2020 season that was cut short in March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The number of total and returning players are among the highest ever for Arkansas head coach Dave Van Horn, who is entering his 19th fall season with the program.
