UVA wins Game 3 7-6.

Pack doesn't have a midweek game and then hosts Maryland for the weekend series.

4/24/2011 4:21:12 PM

Wow. We at least had a good series. Took one and had two losses at the home field of the #1 team in the nation. Need to start sweeping teams like MD this weekend though.

4/24/2011 4:23:59 PM

If anyone else will be in the Boston area May 19-21 and wants to watch the Pack play BC, let me know.

Won game 2 9-5. Gotta take the series tomorrow. Game 3 1pm.

4/30/2011 10:55:32 PM

Let's Go Pack. I hate the Terps.

5/1/2011 11:41:52 AM

Terps PWNT. Stay home.

5/1/2011 10:05:34 PM

Game 3 goes to the Pack 7-5. Down 5-3, but scored 2 runs each inning back to back and held on. Turned 3 double plays with 1 coming in the 9th after Maryland looked to get something going. No mid-week games due to exams and the team takes a break from ACC play as East Tennessee State comes to Doak. I think they have an RPI around 40.

5/1/2011 10:10:07 PM

Looks like at the least we are safe for the ACCT now safely in 7th and 4 games up on the 9th place team. A sweep of ETSU and win over Campbell hopefully before hosting FSU. If we can take 2/3 from FSU and sweep BC (Which we should, and not screw around like we did with MD), we will finish 16-14 in the ACC and likely lock up a bid.

5/1/2011 11:40:10 PM

still lookin good in hattiesburg

Other projections have us as the 3rd seed in the Columbia regional.

5/10/2011 11:34:16 PM

Any chance we get closer than that ^

5/11/2011 9:42:31 AM

I would say unlikely to get any closer than Columbia. The top 3 seeds of baseball regionals are usually grouped by location. That's why we have been in recent regionals with South Carolina, UNCC, and Coastal Carolina. UNC has had Western, ECU, and UNCW recently as well. The only way to get closer to home would have to mean being in UNC's regional and even though UGA and GT have played before in the regional stage, I highly doubt that we would ever be put in a regional with UNC.

5/11/2011 9:55:45 AM

^ Do they ever put two teams from the same conference in a regional? I do not remember ever seeing that.

5/11/2011 10:44:24 AM

I've never seen teams from the same conference in a regional, but have in a Super Regional, but that's just due to the way the bracket is set up. I feel certain that there is a rule against teams in the same conference meeting in the regional stage. I just know that they group teams by region on seeds 1-3 because Jacksonville loved it when they were finally in a regional that FSU wasn't in because they had been in 5 straight regionals with FSU. Our 07 regional was South Carolina, UNC Charlotte, and Wofford and the 08 regional we hosted was South Carolina, UNC Charlotte, and James Madison.

5/11/2011 11:40:32 AM

FWIW, the kid from Garner who made it to the final 3 on American Idol is throwing out the first pitch for the game against FSU this Saturday. Should get NC State a few seconds of glory on American Idol next week.

5/13/2011 8:32:26 PM

Should still be able to get in as a student right?

5/14/2011 2:34:05 PM

Doubleheader at NOON. Possibility of two 7 inning games due to ACC travel curfew rule.

I've watched a few times this year and saw him wearing an NC State shirt at one point -- not on the stage, but in one of those behind-the-scenes moments. Scotty is alright in my book

5/15/2011 9:32:35 AM

there is video of him and the whole nc state baseball team slip-n-sliding on the wet tarp at doak on WRAL.com

also yesterday at his concert, josh turner gave a shoutout and said that he knows scotty is a fan of the nc state wolfpack

5/15/2011 9:52:39 AM

1st game of the double header = Loss

5/17/2011 3:16:02 AM

The good news is BCS (according to my math) is 6-14 in the last 20.

[Edited on May 17, 2011 at 4:59 PM. Reason : k]

5/17/2011 4:57:58 PM

I'm here now. poor crowd for the last game. 2 annoying William and Mary girls with signs yelling. Bases loaded 2 outs and the rain is about to start

5/17/2011 7:42:47 PM

pack wins!

keep it goin' and let's get in the acc tourney!

5/17/2011 8:34:46 PM

Had a shot at taking 2/3 from FSU last weekend, but we got one game. Hopefully we keep up the good play, sweep BC this weekend and make some noise again in the ACC Tournament.

5/17/2011 8:37:48 PM

i'll be at all 3 games as long as the rain holds back

5/18/2011 4:46:49 PM

Won Game 1 9-4. We are officially in the ACC Tourney with the win. Likely 7/8 seed with Wake being the other. Wake is at Maryland.

5/19/2011 5:29:52 PM

10-0 win for the Pack today.

5/20/2011 4:10:24 PM

taking care of business.

5/20/2011 4:14:17 PM

We will be 6-7-8th seed. We hold tiebreakers over Wake and Clemson. We have to finish off the sweep of BC tomorrow and FSU has to sweep Clemson for both teams to be at 15-15. We will still be tied with Wake if they win today vs Maryland, but again we hold the tiebreaker.

5/20/2011 4:20:18 PM

Who cares about the acc, bring on the cws. I just hope its close enough to go to.

5/20/2011 4:24:01 PM

Pack wins 6-1 and sweeps BC. Will be the 7th seed for the tourney and will be in the pool with Florida State, Georgia Tech, and Clemson.

[Edited on May 21, 2011 at 2:43 PM. Reason : Game times will be set tomorrow]

5/21/2011 2:42:25 PM

Meh we don't have much chance against those 3. Avent might be coaching for his job.

5/21/2011 3:04:39 PM

Considering these last 3 games were the only ones I got to see all season, I must say it was well worth it.

5/22/2011 1:46:04 AM

5/22/2011 11:03:23 AM

Here is the schedule for us for the ACC Tourney.

Thursday 7pm vs GT
Saturday 11am vs Clemson

Quote :

"After looking at the likely one-bid leagues last week, this time the focus is on conferences that appear ready to send two or more teams to regional play. ACC (7): There are really three races within the ACC -- the one for national seeds, the one for other hosting opportunities and the one-team bubble watch. NC State is the only contender with anything to worry about, and a three-game set with Boston College should help the Wolfpack finish the season strong. The top six teams in the conference are all contending for the top-16 spots. Virginia is a lock for a national seed at 45-6. Atlantic Division leader Florida State, Georgia Tech and North Carolina are all in contention for national seeds -- the Tar Heels can make their case against Virginia this weekend but are last in the pecking order for now since they sit fifth in the conference. Miami and Clemson are each on the hosting bubble but figure as No. 2 seeds for now -- a conference tournament title would probably be enough to get either team a No. 1 seed, but probably travelling to a smaller host (Stetson or Connecticut, if the NCAA decides to expand the hosting pool)."

^No way that prediction holds...I'll be in Nashville next week and the prospect of being able to catch a pack game by coincidence is too good to be true
