FAYETTEVILLE — There have been no surprises from Dominic Fletcher. He's been as good as advertised and that's saying a lot for a player ranked as one of the nation's 10 best outfielders in last year's prep class.
When Arkansas coach Dave Van Horn talks about getting exactly what was expected from Fletcher, he includes a slump in SEC play.
The good news is that the true freshman outfielder bounced out of it last weekend at Tennessee when he slammed two home runs and five hits in two games. That's the most hits for Fletcher in an SEC series since five in three games at Missouri in the second SEC series of the season.
