Tar Heels sweep Hokies to clinch No. 1 seed in ACC tournament | News & Observer

It’s quickly becoming a better May for North Carolina’s Tar Heels, who would like to make it memorable,

After a slow, disappointing start to the month, the No. 6 Tar Heels finished off a three-game sweep of Virginia Tech on Saturday, claiming the No. 1 overall seed in the ACC Baseball Championship for the first time since 2013.

UNC was a 6-1 winner over the Hokies on Senior Day at Boshamer Stadium, getting an encouraging four innings from starting pitcher Gianluca Dalatri — out with an arm injury since late February — and more than enough offensive production.
