CWS: #2 UNC 7 #3 Rice 4

HOW ABOUT THEM HEELS!!!!

When Rice smacked UNC all over the field to the tune of 14-4 on Sunday night and sent them to the loser’s bracket it seemed doubtful they could come back to reach the title series.  Then the pitching showed up and held Louisville to one run, Rice to one run in [...]

College World Series: #2 Rice vs #3 UNC

When: Thursday, June 21st, 7 PM EDT Where: Rosenblatt Stadium, Omaha, NE TV/Radio: ESPN2, 1360 AM(Chapel Hill) Records: UNC 56-15; Rice 56-13

Honestly I think UNC has the momentum as much as anyone can have it at the CWS. They are coming off two straight games of giving up only two total runs. The Heels [...]

CWS: #3 UNC 6 #2 Rice 1

Cue The Bee Gees “Stayin’ Alive”

UNC turned in another masterful pitching performance and got six runs from the offense to avoid elimination. Now the Heels faceoff with Rice for a second time tomorrow and this time both teams are facing the trip home if they lose. Robert Woodard pitched an incredible game shutting down [...]

UNC faces their second elimination game in as many days.  They also rematch with Rice who spent yesterday watching UNC knock off Louisville.  We can only hope the day off cooled the bats [...]

CWS: #2 UNC 3 Louisville 1

Finally some decent pitching from the Heels.  The arms have been the strength of this team and so far here in June the pitching has been suspect.  Not today as UNC cooled off a hot hitting Cardinal team and sent them back to Kentucky on the strength of seven innings of great pitching from Luke [...]

When: Tuesday, June 19th, 2 PM EDT Where: Rosenblatt Stadium, Omaha, NE TV/Radio: ESPN2, 1360 AM(Chapel Hill) Records: UNC 54-14; Louisville 47-23

Help us Luke Putkonen, you’re our only hope.

Elimination game. Win or go home. Let’s go Heels!

And the Commonwealth Sighed

Sean Singletary has decided to return to UVa instead of enter the NBA Draft or go to the NBDL. Singletary was projected as a second round pick and while the NBDL would have been tempting, he obviously made the best decision to come back and play his senior season. This is also a boon for [...]

Jason Whitlock on Fixing the NBA

KC Star columinst Jason Whitlock offered an interesting theory on how to make the NBA better and that is by reducing the number of early entrants in an effort to make these kids go to college first, allow them to make a name for themselves at that level then go to the NBA:

LeBron James, [...]

CWS: #2 Rice 14 #3 UNC 4

Well that did not go well now did it?

Rice has some red hot bats. They scored 15 on Louisville in their first game and posted 14 on the Heels tonight. Now UNC faces a tough task having been saddled with a loss and will play Louisville on Tuesday in an elimination game. Assuming they [...]

Probably the toughest opponent UNC has faced all tournament.  The Owls are seeded one spot ahead and are traditionally a very good baseball team winning the title in 2003.  According to [...]

CWS: #3 UNC 8 MSU 5

Another NCAA Tournament game. Another rally. This time after Robert Woodard was (surprisingly)shelled early on to spot the Bulldogs a 4-0 lead before UNC got the bats going and moved into the winner’s bracket. Heels face #2 Rice on Sunday at 7 PM.
