FAYETTEVILLE — Second baseman Robert Moore became Arkansas’ first player to earn Freshman All-America honors in multiple seasons Thursday.
Moore, a second-year freshman, was named to Baseball America’s Freshman All-America third team. Texas Tech’s Jace Jung (first team) and Old Dominion’s Carter Trice (second team) made teams ahead of Moore at second base.
Moore was also a Freshman All-American in 2020 by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper.
The 2020 season was canceled after four weeks due to covid-19 and all college baseball players had their year of eligibility restored. That made players from the last two signing classes eligible for freshman awards this year.
