Arkansas started its magical 2021 season with three wins in Arlington, Texas, and will be back again in 2023 and 2024 according to Matt Jones with WholeHogSports. Last year was the first of what promises to be the premiere early season college baseball tournament. The Hogs went 3-0 at the home of the Texas Rangers, beating Texas Tech, Texas, and TCU last season.
The Omahogs are playing an early season tournament in Round Rock, Texas, this season where they’ll play the Indiana Hoosiers, Stanford Cardinal, and Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns.
Some familiar teams will show up in the ’23 and ’24 tournaments.
Arkansas’ opponents in 2023 will be Texas, TCU and Oklahoma State, Van Horn said. The 2024 opponents will be Michigan, Oklahoma State and Oregon State.
The Oregon State matchup is the first scheduled between the programs since the Beavers beat the Razorbacks twice in three games during the championship round of the 2018 College World Series.
Dave Van Horn will begin his 20th season as the head coach at Arkansas on Friday, February 18 at Baum Stadium against Illinois State.
