Arkansas made a statement for its postseason resumé Sunday.
The third-ranked Razorbacks defeated No. 18 Auburn 7-4 at Plainsman Park to win a three-game series between a pair of teams that are battling to be top-eight national seeds in next month’s NCAA Tournament.
Arkansas (36-12, 16-8 SEC) maintained its lead in the SEC West with two weeks to play in the regular season. The Razorbacks, who improved to 5-2 in series-clinching finales, have games remaining against No. 23 Vanderbilt and at Alabama.
Arkansas entered Sunday with a one-game lead over Texas A&M and a two-game lead over Auburn and LSU.
