Kevin Kopps

Arkansas redshirt senior reliever Kevin Kopps emerged as the most dominant pitcher in college baseball during the 2021 season, racking up unfathomable numbers while pitching strictly out of the bullpen. The Sugar Land, Texas, native went 12-1 on the year with 11 saves and owned a jaw-dropping 0.90 ERA in 89.2 innings pitched (33 appearances), striking out 131 batters while allowing only nine runs and issuing just 18 walks. Kopps, the SEC Pitcher of the Year as well as the Collegiate Baseball National Player of the Year, led the nation in numerous categories, including ERA (0.90) and WHIP (0.76), and continued to rewrite the Razorback record book with every outing he made.
