NC State’s baseball team generated an RPI amongst the top 20 teams in the country in the 2006 baseball season but failed to land in the final poll’s Top 30 rankings. The poll can be found by clicking here. The Wolfpack ended up the 7th ranked team from the ACC (which was easily the country’s toughest conference this season) in a season that produced a record eight MLB draftees.
The Wolfpack is sitting home again without a College World Series appearance as four different ACC schools make an appearance – UNC-CH, Miami, Georgia Tech, and Clemson.
* This is GT’s 3rd CWS in school history
* Miami’s 22nd appearance
* UNC’s 4th appearance
* Clemson’s 11th appearance
Including this season, since 1996:
* Miami has attended 8 CWS
* Clemson has attended 4 CWS
* Georgia Tech has attended 2 CWS
* UNC-CH has attended 1 CWS
* Florida State has attended 4 CWS
* Ray Tanner’s South Carolina has attended 3 CWS
