Gage Wood on Monday etched his name into College World Series history , throwing just the third no-hitter ever recorded in the tournament and the first in 65 years in a 3-0 win over Murray State to keep the season alive with record 19 strikeouts. Wood joined an exclusive club alongside Jim Ehrler of Texas (1950) and Jim Wixson of Oklahoma State (1960) as the only pitchers to throw no-hitters in College World Series history. His dominance was unquestionable, as the Razorbacks' defence was rarely tested throughout the game. Facing a Racers team making its first-ever appearance in Omaha, Wood controlled the tempo from the mound, silencing the bats with authority and poise.

Live Events Murray State (44-17), making its first-ever trip to Omaha, went 0-2 and became just the fourth No. 4 regional seed since 1999 to reach the College World Series. Wood's bid for a perfect game ended in the eighth inning when his 2-2 breaking ball clipped Dom Decker on the back foot. In the ninth, he hit pinch-hitter Nico Bermeo on the elbow with a fastball, but after a successful Arkansas challenge, the call was overturned - officials ruled Bermeo leaned into the pitch. — RazorbackBSB (@RazorbackBSB) Wood then struck out Connor Cunningham and Jonathan Hogart to seal the no-hitter. As the final out was recorded, teammates swarmed Wood behind the mound, the celebration spilling joyfully toward the infield between second and third base. 'Gage was just executing pitch after pitch, getting ahead in the count and elevating his fastball in and out. What a great job,' coach Dave Van Horn said. 'The few plays we had to make behind him - maybe nine, eight? - just glad we made all those plays.' Wood, a projected first-round pick in next month's MLB Draft, was in complete control throughout the game, reaching a three-ball count only twice. Of his 119 pitches, an impressive 83 were strikes, showcasing his command and efficiency.
