Van Horn: McFarland looking for right fit

FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas first baseman/designated hitter Jordan McFarland is looking elsewhere for a chance to play every day, Razorbacks coach Dave Van Horn said Monday.

McFarland, who is in the NCAA transfer portal, hit .238 in 24 games played - 15 starts - as a junior. Only freshmen Trey Harris and Curtis Washington started fewer games this spring.

"He’d like to go to another Division I school, and hopefully he gets an opportunity to play right away," Van Horn said at his end-of-season press conference at Baum-Walker Stadium. "He just wants to play."

Van Horn added he doesn't blame McFarland, a Waterloo, Ill.
