In the past ten days the college basketball Gods have been on NC State’s side. Although State fans at times have had their fair share of unfortunate luck in the past with numerous transfers plus players entering the draft during the Mark Gottfried era, Coach Gottfried and the staff have been on a roll of […]
ACC & Other
2016 ACC Baseball Championship
Wolfpack Baseball, as well as most of the rest of the ACC…not to mention 3/4’s of the Big four…will be in Durham this week for the 2016 ACC Baseball Championship. 1/4 of the Big Four will be at home 8 miles away. See I KNOW it’s 8 miles because Dick Vitale tells me so, incessantly, […]
Baseball Regular Season Finale – Heels Come to Town
Time’s running out for Wolfpack Baseball (32-17, 13-12 ACC) to distinguish themselves as one of the top 8 teams in the nation as the Pack took it on the chin this past weekend at Louisville. When the dust settled, the Cards had not only swept the Pack, but also limited State to 3 runs in […]
Copperhead Road – Baseball at Louisville
My apologies to loyal readers (all five of you), but this week’s preview will be sorely lacking. Due to family and other obligations late this week, I am, for the first time ever, writing this on the fly after having done literally no research beforehand. Whatever I get done in the next two hours (and […]
1983 team goes to Washington
h/t Mark Armstrong It took 33 years, but today the Wolfpack’s 1983 national championship basketball team was recognized and honored with a trip to the White House. Several of the local sports broadcasters went along on the trip, including Mark Armstrong and Jeff Gravley. At the time, the school wouldn’t cover the players’ transportation to […]
Road Warriors (we hope) – Baseball Heads to Clemson
And so the 2016 NC State Baseball campaign approaches the crux of the situation. Headed down the back stretch. Coming to the meat of it (giggity). And more cliches, from which I’ll spare you. After a week that included beating ECU and winning a home series vs Duke, Wolfpack Baseball (31-12, 12-7 ACC) finds itself […]
Baseball – Duke Rolls Into Raleigh
With less than a month to go in the 2016 regular season, Wolfpack Baseball (29-11, 10-6 ACC) has itself positioned pretty well as it rounds the back turn and approaches the stretch run. But with Duke at home this weekend, followed by road trips to Clemson and Louisville, and home vs Carolina to close things […]
Pack9 Heads to ATL to Face GT
Wolfpack Baseball (24-9, 8-5 ACC) enters the back half of ACC play this weekend as they travel to Atlanta to face Georgia Tech (23-9, 7-7 ACC). The Pack has won their past 6 straight and 8 of their last 9, including a road series win at defending Nat’l Champs UVa and a home sweep of […]
Baseball Update – Wake Comes to Town
It’s been a pretty good week for Wolfpack Baseball (20-9, 5-5 ACC). After a disappointing washout weekend in Tallahassee two weeks ago, this past weekend they went on the road and won a series vs defending Nat’l Champs UVa, the Pack’s first series win in Charlottesville since ’07. Then last night they methodically went to […]
Villanova Delivers Justice
What a beautiful morning. This isn’t about State fans being ecstatic that Carolina lost on the second greatest buzzer beater ever. No, this morning is all about the reckoning. Considering that, last summer, just hours before its response to the NOA was due, and after more than two decades of institutional academic fraud, The Flagship […]
