After Zach Root set the Longhorns down in order again, Carson Boles crushed a breaking ball out to left for a two-run homer to give Arkansas the lead. The Razorbacks hit three balls over 100 miles per hour in the inning against Ruger Riojas, who escaped the inning with a 5-4-3 double play.

Zach Root pitched a gem, and Arkansas baseball's bats set the tone in a dominant win over No. 1 Texas to kickoff the weekend series in Fayetteville.
