Gators face the Arkansas Razorbacks Friday April 4 at KSP 6 pm on SEC + Gators are 33-6 Arkansas 26-7 Go Gators!
Whoever takes the circle will have to be sharp. My guess is Rothrock tonight & Oxley tomorrow. Arkansas has a really good lineup, with maybe the best power hitter in the SEC. Bri Ellis is hitting .494 with 18 HR's and 52 RBI. They have 6 other players hitting over .300, with another slugger, Courtney Day, having 12 HR and 45 RBI. They also field at .985. Their pitching is not great, but very good. Their ace is Robyn Herron, 10-3, 71 IP, 39 BB, 91 K's, .183 BA against. Theri #2 pitcher is Payton Burnham, 8-2, 54.2 IP, 18 BB, 51 K's, .197 BA against. We are going to have to pitch, hit and field very well to win this series.
Arky is currently on a very good run. They have won 5 out of 6 from Tenn & KY outscoring their opponents 34 - 12.

Herron has only given up more than 3 runs twice in her 16 appearances all season... Gonna have to be aggressive
