Arkansas made some history on the diamond this spring.
The best player in both college baseball and college softball played in Fayetteville in 2025. Bri Ellis won USA Softball Player of the Year for her efforts in 2025 while Arkansas’s Wehiwa Aloy took home the Golden Spikes Award this weekend after a historic 2025 campaign.
As the SEC Network noted on Monday, it’s the first time ever that the winners of those 2 awards have come from the same school in one season.

— SEC Network (@SECNetwork) June 23, 2025Ellis was dominant for a Razorbacks softball program that nearly made its first-ever trip to Oklahoma City this spring. Arkansas was eliminated in the Super Regional round for the third time in the last five seasons, but Ellis is a big reason why it was so close to the Women’s College World Series this year. She hit .440 with 26 home runs, proving to be arguably the sport’s top hitter in the country.
Aloy led Arkansas all the way to the semifinals of the College World Series. The Hogs came up short against LSU, but his season still resulted in him becoming the third Arkansas player ever to join the list of Golden Spikes Award winners.
Both Ellis and Aloy are expected to move on this offseason, with Ellis out of eligibility and Aloy set to be a first-round pick in next month’s MLB Draft. The Razorbacks will need to develop new stars in both sports, but for 2025, Arkansas baseball and softball made history.
