Baseball team picks up midweek win over ECU
Despite committing six errors, NC State picked up a big out of conference win over the Pirates Wednesday night. NC State has a lot of work left to do if it wants to make it into the post season, but there are a lot of games left to try and get that done. Wednesday’s win […]
State takes Weekend Series vs. #1 Virginia
State won its weekend series at Doak Field at Dail Park versus #1-ranked Virginia 2-1 to improve to 18-10 overall (5-7 ACC). I was at the game Friday and it was a beautiful evening and a great crowd, and obviously the last few innings were exciting. It was my first game of the season and […]

Two Virginia Prep Titans Square Off Under Center Saturday in Blacksburg
Saturday afternoon in Lane Stadium, two of the best-ever Virginia high school QB products will lead their respective teams when NC State visits Virginia Tech. Tyrod Taylor, a Hampton High School graduate, has paced the Hokies this year and has improved a great deal in his third year. He’s become an effective leader for the […]
Russell Wilson Discusses Future
Interesting comments from Russell. Something must have been said or asked about playing both sports professionally because Tysiac mentions Russell thinking he can be a Hall of Fame player in both sports.
