Weekend Open Thread

Pack takes series from #1 Heels
NC State’s baseball team may be struggling this year and probably will not even qualify for an Atlantic Coast Conference Tournament berth…but this weekend the Wolfpack found a way to grab some ‘prideful’ wins.

Pack Baseball Season Begins Today
I’m purposely delaying my baseball preview until Sunday to allow the UVa basketball game to get the attention it deserves. However, I thought I would at least point out that Rhode Island, Santa Clara and Xavier are in town as the Wolfpack season gets underway. State’s first game gets going in a few minutes against […]
