FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – No. 14 Tennessee’s season came to an end on Sunday afternoon with an 11-4 loss to No. 3 Arkansas in game two of the NCAA Fayetteville Super Regional at Baum-Walker Stadium.
A five-run fourth inning from the Razorbacks proved to be the difference as the Volunteers were unable to dig themselves out of a six-run hole.
Tennessee starter Liam Doyle fell to 10-4 on the year after pitching just 3.2 innings while allowing five runs on five hits. The junior lefthander and Golden Spikes Award finalist had six strikeouts to add to his single season program record and finish with 164 for the year.
Another 40-Win Season Under Vitello
Despite Sunday’s season-ending loss, it was another successful season under the guidance of head coach Tony Vitello, who led the Volunteers to their sixth consecutive 40-win season (not including 2020 COVID year) and fifth straight super regional, both of which are the longest streaks in program history.
Including this year, Tennessee, Arkansas and Southern Miss are the only three programs in the country to reach the 40-win mark in each of the last six full seasons.
