Big-time recognition for one of the Razorbacks’ finest — Wehiwa Aloy has just been named the Golden Spikes Award winner, the highest individual honor in college baseball! 🏆
Aloy’s season was nothing short of electric. From his clutch hits to his steady leadership, the junior infielder was a force all year long. He finished the season with a .361 batting average, 22 home runs, and 68 RBIs, playing a pivotal role in leading Arkansas to yet another deep postseason run.
The award, presented annually by USA Baseball, goes to the top amateur baseball player in the country — and this year, there was no debate. Aloy’s consistency at the plate, flawless glove, and energy in the dugout made him the heart and soul of the Hogs.
Head coach Dave Van Horn said it best:
> “Wehiwa played every game with heart. This isn’t just a win for him — it’s a win for Razorback Nation.”
This marks the first time a Razorback has ever taken home the prestigious Golden Spikes Award, adding yet another milestone to the program’s growing legacy.
