Arkansas Clinches Second Straight SEC Regular Season Title

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – There couldn’t have been a better ending to senior day at Bogle Park Sunday afternoon.

No. 5 Arkansas shutout South Carolina, 8-0 (5), to claim its second-straight SEC regular season title while capturing its third conference sweep of the season. The Hogs clinch at least a share of the 2022 SEC regular season title and will look to earn it outright at Texas A&M on May 6-8.

Senior RHP Mary Haff (16-3) got the green light on the mound, twirling a three-hit shutout before receiving a long and loud standing ovation as she passed reigns over to junior RHP Chenise Delce for the game’s final out. An already cemented figure in program history, Haff turned in yet another outstanding performance in the circle, curbing the Gamecocks to just three hits while striking out six en route to her second win of the series. The Winter Haven, Fla., product also allowed zero extra base hits.

“It was an incredible experience to be able to celebrate this moment at home on senior day,” said Haff. “Having all of my other seniors with me made it a special day.”
