Redhawks' Andy Sawyers, Hogs' Dave Van Horn both thought their teams would come out on top after game tied at 8 before Arkansas win.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Dave Van Horn didn't panic when his Razorbacks blew an 8-0 lead in their opening game of the NCAA Regional Friday afternoon. He simply went for a short stroll.
At that point, the game was as messy as the pregame weather that threatened a delay. Both teams had eight runs but each had only five hits.

The Hogs did that well as a team, eventually knocking 16 hits. Still, three SEMO errors led to six unearned runs for the home team, although Van Horn was philosophical about both teams' gift giving. "They kicked a couple of balls that helped us." he said matter-of-factly. "When we walked them, they scored."
