 Though Arkansas' pitching staff lost a pair of strong starters in Connor Noland and Peyton Pallette to the MLB Draft, head coach Dave Van Horn brought in a valuable left-hander in Hunter Hollan to spice up his starting rotation in 2023.

 

As a sophomore in the 2022 season at San Jacinto, Hollan went 9-3 with a 3.59 ERA, 96 strikeouts and 28 walks in 80 1/3 innings on the mound. The year prior, he was 10-3 as a freshman, earning a 3.08 ERA while racking up 104 strikeouts and walking just 17 across 73 innings.

 

In the fall, Hollan started two games and had a 3.38 ERA in eight innings. He struck out 11 batters and walked three, while giving up three earned runs and seven hits.

Hunter Hollan, Arkansas– Hollan’s velocity has already jumped since he arrived in Fayetteville, and he looked dominant against the Rangers Instructional team this fall, striking out four in two hitless innings. Long and lean at 6-foot-5, 195 pounds with a loose, whippy high three-quarters arm action that produces 93-95 mph heat and a little crossfire action in his delivery that adds some deception. He showed the feel to spin a slider around 80 mph with good tilt that he threw effectively in on righties, and also a curveball with more depth and downer action at 75-77, which he showcased more against lefties. And he landed his 85-87 changeup for strikes. Hollan looks to have the ability to either start or relieve for the Razorbacks. Last spring the left-hander was on the radar of top JUCO prospects, ranking No. 26 overall by Prep Baseball Report. (Aaron Fitt)
