Jack Arcamone Delivers at the Plate with 4 RBIs and Georgia Wins SEC Championship for First Time
Jack Arcamone drove in four runs as Georgia won 11-1 in seven innings to earn its first SEC tournament title and an NCAA automatic bid.
On Sunday, May 24, 2026, the Georgia Bulldogs claimed their first SEC Baseball Championship, defeating the Arkansas Razorbacks 11-1 in seven innings at Hoover, Alabama.
Heavy rainfall at Hoover Metropolitan Stadium forced a 2-hour, 45-minute weather delay before first pitch, leaving the outfield saturated and the tarp sagging under water.
Jack Arcamone powered the Bulldogs' offense, driving in four runs with a single and a 415-foot home run that helped build an early 5-0 lead in the first inning.
Georgia starter Paul Farley allowed six hits across four scoreless innings, while Arkansas struggled to capitalize, stranding eight runners throughout the contest.
Both programs secured positions in the 64-team NCAA Baseball Tournament field, with regional hosts to be announced on Monday, May 25, 2026.
