Support for Arkansas’ run at a national baseball title continues today just hours ahead of the Razorbacks’ opener against the Oregon State Beavers in the championship round of the 2018 College World Series.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ordered that Beaver Lake shall be known as OmaHog Lake for the remainder of the series, which takes place at TD Ameritrade Park in Omaha.
The announcement came from the Little Rock District of the agency in a tweet Monday. The best-of-three series is scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday Tuesday, Wednesday, and on Thursday, if necessary.
The Twitterverse has spoken and we have listened: Let it be known…..The Little Rock District Commander has decreed that for the remainder of the 2018 College World Series, Beaver Lake will now be known as OmaHog Lake. #WooPig, #OmaHogs, #kthv, #RazorbackBSB, #WPS, #CWS

The idea was pitched on Sunday by HogCall.com and later promoted by THV11 with a poll that had received 192 responses by Monday morning.
