Pack9 Outlasts Miami, Clinches Championship Game Berth

Wolfpack Baseball found themselves in yet another extra-inning affair with ACC Championship implications on Friday night.  Two years ago State fell 2-1 to eventual champion Carolina in an 18 inning marathon, falling short of the Sunday Championship game.  But on Friday night the Pack found answers every time they needed one, with the loudest STATEment coming off the bat of Preston Palmeiro in walk-off fashion, and the Pack outlasting the Miami Hurricanes in 12 innings, 5-4.
