HOOVER, Ala. (AP) — Hunter Wilson hit a grand slam and Casey Martin had a two-run homer to lead Arkansas to an 8-2 victory over top-seeded Florida Friday in the Southeastern Conference Tournament.

The Razorbacks (39-17) moved on to the semifinals in a game that had been postponed from Thursday night. The Gators (42-16) face LSU Friday night in an elimination game.

Blaine Knight (10-0) allowed just one run on four hits in six innings for Arkansas. Wilson's home run in the top of the ninth was his first of the season. Martin had a two-homer game Thursday night against South Carolina.

Closer Matt Cronin worked out of a bases loaded, one-out jam in the eighth and earned his 11th save. He struck out five in two innings.

SEC player of the year Jonathan India got Florida on the board with a leadoff homer in the sixth.
