Ole Miss baseball player Doug Nikhazy was arrested for a DUI early Monday morning as first reported by Rival’s Chase Parham.
“We are aware of the situation, and we will handle it appropriately and internally,” head coach Mike Bianco said in a statement.
Nikhazy became a fan favorite for the Ole Miss baseball team in his freshman season, setting the program freshman record for strikeouts in a season (86) and earning freshman All-American and All-SEC honors.
The sophomore is slated to be the Rebels’ top arm and Friday starter, but he could see suspension time early this season.
