UNC Baseball outlasts Notre Dame, Advances to ACC Championship

The red hot North Carolina Tar Heels baseball team refused to cool off on Saturday, defeating the highest remaining seed in the ACC Baseball Championship, Notre Dame, and in so doing advance to Sunday’s title game against NC State. The game will be played at Noon and be on ESPN 2.

Unlike their first couple of games in Charlotte, the game against the Irish was a pitcher’s duel for the first seven innings. Carolina started Will Sandy, but after giving up a run and getting into a jam in the third, he gave way to Gage Gillian who got out of the inning.
