UNCW defeated #13 NC State 6-3 in a midweek game at home last night, which could have costly implications for upcoming NCAA Tournament seeding.
Heading into the contest, the Wolfpack was surging in the RPI, sitting at #22. After the loss, NC State slid six spots to #28.
The Wolfpack is now 6-4 in midweek games, but those four losses are costly when it comes to their strength of schedule.
