Over the weekend, Arkansas baseball went 2-1 in the Amegy Bank College Baseball series at Globe Life Field. Unfortunately, Kansas State got the better of the Razorbacks despite one of the coolest scenarios happening for the Hogs in the sixth inning.
Brothers Wehiwa and Kuhio Aloy each hit a home run, separated by Brent Iredale's at-bat. That, in addition to their tremendous performances this weekend, is why they're baseball's Co-Razorbacker of the week.
The two solo bombs against Kansas State were the only runs Arkansas scored, but the bats weren't entirely dead. The Hogs had seven hits on the night, and three were from the Aloy brothers. Their bats didn't stop there. When adding the TCU and Michigan games, they hit a combined .500 average for eight hits, six RBIs, and three home runs.

Wehiwa was amazing through the weekend. He alone hit .545 in his 11 at-bats, drove in three runs, two homers, and a double. Against Michigan, he was perfect from the plate, going four of four, including a double and home runs, and forcing one walk.
While Wehiwa drew most of the action in the series, Kuhio made the most of every pitch. In his five opportunities, he had two hits — a double and a solo shot — for an outstanding three RBIs.
You can tell the brother competition is bringing the best out of the duo. After the series in Arlington, Wehiwa and Kuhio are at the top of the season's stat sheet with eerily similar metrics. Both are batting .417, with seven RBIs and three home runs. Wehiwa's on-base percentage is better at .563, but Kuhio's slugging percentage is off the charts at 1.333.
