Tarheels took the series finale 6-0 yesterday afternoon. We still got the series (our first there since 2015) and thatā€™s what matters in conference play.

Other ACC series results heading into Sunday morningā€¦

BC at VT: BC wins 2-1
Wake at Duke: Wake wins 2-1
Notre Dame at GT: GT wins 2-1
Pitt at FSU: FSU leads 2-0
NC State at Miami: Miami leads 2-0

Clemson and Louisville had their ACC off week this weekend (we take ours during final exams).

Also of note, Columbia did us a huge solid. Recall we swept them a couple weekends ago. They went to previously unbeaten Alabama this weekend and took two out of three. That gives us a nice SOS and RPI boost which will help come time to select regional hosts.

Baseball team looks really good again. Letā€™s hope our bats arenā€™t as streaky as last year and our bullpen is not so erratic. Wahoowa!

Itā€™s officially baseball season now for the Hoos, whether we wanted it to be this early or not.

Letā€™s hit some fucking dingers tonight and beat the fighting Aventā€™s.

Over/under on what inning does Avent first go red ass on someone?

Iā€™m thinking Inning 3, Game 1 as the over/under point.

I think he yells at the HP ump about the second pitch of the game being a ball, and then tries to get out of it by arguing that he didnā€™t say anything about the first pitch.

Parker with a strong start, and the bullpen was fantastic. Bats were quiet but did just enough to win.

Needed this one to end the day, makes it a bit easier to rest on.

Baseball hosting High Point today at 4 (Gā€™town tomorrow).

High Point is starting Roy Halladayā€™s kid. So thatā€™s semi notable.

Clean, focused baseball gets us 2-0 in the midweek this week. I expect Georgetown to be more of a challenge.

8-3 win for the Hoos today.

High Point hit a solo homer on the gameā€™s first pitch. You donā€™t see that too often.

Starter Connelly Early settled in to strike out a career high 10. At one point, he sat down 11 batters in a row.

First year OF Harrison Didawick had the other big day (2 run HR, 1 RBI triple).
