Arkansas coaches and players take the field for a practice Thursday, June 2, 2022, in Stillwater, Okla.

STILLWATER, Okla. — Arkansas’ baseball team has put its struggles of the past month in the rearview mirror heading into Friday’s NCAA regional opener against Grand Canyon.

The Razorbacks (38-18) enter the postseason on a 4-game losing streak and with losses in 8 of 12 games.

The late-season struggle cost Arkansas a chance to host a regional. Instead, the Razorbacks will open postseason play at Oklahoma State’s O’Brate Stadium.

“Our thing is it doesn't matter anymore,” Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn said Thursday when asked whether the team feels less pressure because it is not hosting a regional.
