Top-ranked Hogs kick back after taking care of business

FAYETTEVILLE — A split doubleheader between No. 1 Arkansas and No. 11 South Carolina on Friday ahead of rough weather Saturday created a weird weekend off and a few days of reflection for the Razorbacks.

The Hogs’ pitching staff threw a pair of two-hitters to defeat the Gamecocks 6-1 on Thursday and 5-1 in the nightcap of Friday’s doubleheader to give Coach Dave Van Horn’s club its 12th consecutive series. It also was the team’s fourth road series victory over a current top-15 opponent this season.

The Hogs are a combined 7-2 in road games at then-No.
