Hogs, Red Wolves set for 'interesting' first meeting

FAYETTEVILLE — As a Mississippi State assistant baseball coach from 1994-2008, Tommy Raffo faced the University of Arkansas 45 times.

The Bulldogs held a 23-22 advantage in those SEC West matchups.

“Extremely competitive between Arkansas and Mississippi State,” Raffo said. “Great ballgames and a lot of fans at both sites.”

Raffo’s games against the Razorbacks stopped when he was hired as Arkansas State University’s coach on July 1, 2008.

Arkansas’ administration had a long-standing policy of not scheduling in-state colleges in any sports.
