The No. 4 Arkansas Razorbacks 10-1 (0-0 SEC) went for the sweep in the weekend series against the Charlotte 49ers 4-6 (0-0 AAC) in Baum-Walker Stadium in Fayetteville. Although not many fans nationwide know who the Charlotte 49ers are, and their record may not suggest they are talented, the 49ers are gifted and not a team others should be eager to face. Just ask Dave Van Horn and the Arkansas Razorbacks.

Arkansas struggled to win each game in this series. In the final game, ESPN revealed that the Razorbacks scored first: Kuhio Aloy singled and drove in his brother, Wehiwa Aloy, in the third inning. Brent Iredale scored on a Rocco Peppi fly out in the sixth inning. In the seventh inning, the 49ers scored one run. Arkansas's Ryder Helfrick scored on a wild pitch in the seventh inning. The 49ers scored two runs in the ninth inning, tying the game. However, in the bottom of the ninth, Logan Maxwell hit a single that brought in the winning base runner, Nolan Souza.

The Razorbacks defeated the 49ers 4-3. After a competitive weekend series sweep, Arkansas fans and media expressed their satisfaction with the team's performance against Charlotte on social media.
