We finally got baseball in Fort Worth, so let’s check back in with Virginia’s opposite regional in Fayetteville. When we last left our possible future opponents, top seeds Arkansas and Missouri State picked up wins to stay out of the elimination game. Saturday, Oklahoma State faced Oral Roberts in the first game of the day, while Missouri State and Arkansas squared off in the evening game.
In the early action, it was all Oral Roberts. The Golden Eagles jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first three innings, and never looked back. Michael Hungate led the way with a perfect 4-for-4 performance at the plate with three runs and five RBIs in the win.
