FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The No. 8 Arkansas softball team slugged a single-game program record six home runs in a 9-1 (5 inning) rout over Missouri State at Bogle Park on Tuesday evening. Catcher Kayla Green led the way recording her first career two homer game and was joined by infielder Hannah Gammill, infielder Danielle Gibson, infielder Braxton Burnside and designated player Linnie Malkin in the long ball department.
The Razorbacks also set the single-season school home run record as a team, with their 69 bombs this season breaking the 2008 team’s (65) mark.
How it Happened
All but one of Arkansas’ six home runs were solo jacks as Gammill slugged the team’s first tater in the second inning while making her first plate appearance since March 9 at Central Arkansas. The freshman did not miss a beat and finished the game 3-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored.
