Gators even series with Arkansas, snap SEC losing streak

After 14 days, the Gators are finally back in the win column in SEC play. They defeated No. 2 Arkansas, 7-2, on Friday night at Florida Ballpark to even the series at a game apiece and snap their six-game losing streak against league competition.

UF (20-11, 4-7 SEC) dominated the game in all facets. Offensively, they jumped on Arkansas’ freshman starter, Hagen Smith, for seven runs on seven hits in 4 1/3 innings.

On the mound, Brandon Sproat turned in one of his best outings ever, giving up just one run on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings.
