Pack now down 8-2.
Wake tops UVA.If Pack cannot come back on VT, they will play Carolina in the 7/10 play in at 11am Tuesday (winner goes into pool with FSU, UVa and Maryland)
If Pack can make the big comeback, they will play Wake in the 8/9 play in game at 3pm Tuesday (winner goes into pool with Miami, Duke and Clemson)
Gary Hahn just said UVa gets the 2 seed and FSU the 3 seed. I don’t believe that is correct, but they’ll be in the same pool regardless.
EDIT – I just confirmed it…division champs take 1 and 2, just as I thought. Somebody have Gary call the league office again please.
Pack now trails VT 7-1 after 5.
Wake now leads UVa 4-1 after 6.
Clemson/BC still tied at 9 after 10.VT has pushed 3 across in the 4th so far to extend their lead to 5-1.
NCSU pitching change, Corey Wilder.
VT still has 2 on, one away in their half of the 4th.Duke up on FSU 7-3 heading to the 8th.
Wake up on UVa 1-0 in the 5th.
BC leading Clemson 9-4 in the 9th.Softball: UGa puts up a fight in the 7th but falls short, Pack wins 5-4. Pack stays unbeaten and advances to tomorrow. UGa will have to face the UAB/Chattanooga winner later today and whoever wins that will have to beat the Pack twice tomorrow.
Baseball: Rough first inning for Patrick Peterson puts State in an early 2 run hole.
Duke up 5-1 in Tallahassee (3rd)
Carolina down 2-0 in Coral Gables (7th)
BC up on Clemson 6-1 (6th)
Wake/UVa scoreless in the 1stNo feeds that have been shared so far. We’ll see if the boys in the pressbox come thru again with a webcam.
Softball has just taken a 6th inning 3-2 lead over UGa, and still has the bases loaded with one away.
Almost forgot….State winning today and making either the #8 or #9 seed is kind of a big deal.
The winner of the #8/#9 play in game goes into Pool A, while the winner of the #7/#10 play in game goes into Pool B.
Pool B will contain FSU and either Miami or UVa.
Pool A will only contain either Miami or UVa.Lots of tie-break scenarios in the conference standings headed into today’s season finale. But from my understanding, none shake out with the possibility for the Pack to finish any higher than 7th. Meaning that Carlos will be on the hill for Tuesday’s ACC Tournament play-in game.
Yep. Pack is assured of playing Tuesday
As of now:
1. Miami 23-6
2. FSU 21-8
3. UVa 22-7
4. Duke 15-14
5. Carolina 15-14
6. Maryland 15-14
7. Clemson 14-14
8. Wake 14-15
9. GT 14-16
10. NCSU 13-16If State loses today it’s simple. They take the #10 slot.
If State wins today, then it gets more complicated.
A State win combined with a Wake win leaves the Pack tied with GT. State takes the #9 slot.
If State wins and Wake loses, all three teams are tied and State will take the #8 slot based upon combined records amongst the three (State 4-2, Wake 3-3, GT 2-4).
Other non-NCSU tie break scenarios:
A Clemson win today leaves them tied with Maryland at 15-14. Will they give the nod to Clemson by virtue of having won both games of their rain shortened series with Maryland, or will they play the rained out game? This decision could also impact which of the two makes the top 6 and avoids the Tuesday play in games (depending on what Duke and Carolina do today).
If Duke and Carolina finish in a two team tie, having swept Carolina, Duke will take the higher seed. They could also finish in a three team tie with Wake if both lose and Wake wins.
FSU is assured of the #2 seed no matter what happens today.
Miami and UVa could still flip flop. If Miami loses today and UVa wins, they both finish at 23-7, but UVa took 2 of 3 from the ‘Canes head to head.
Gary Hahn was really ballyhooing the fact that we would be IN if we win. Supposedly the ACC “office” told them..
DUH…Pack would be 13 – 16 after second game….Pitt is 11 – 18. Best Pitt could do is 12 – 18. Worst we could do is 13 – 17. No TIE to break….even my wife can do that without a calculator.
Agreed ‘Roo. Hahn mentioned the confirmation call they made to the ACC office at least 3 or 4 times toward the end of the broadcast. Personally, I would have been embarrassed to broadcast the need to call the ACC office to figure that out.
where are the hilarious cat pix that carried us to Omaha last year?
Maybe we’ll have to break some out if we hold on and make post-season.
6-3 Pack heading to bottom 9th.
