CWS: Tar Heels 'expect to be there'
Posted Jun 16, 2009
"Ever since I've been here, it seems like it's been expected." The words of shortstop Ryan Graepel speak volumes regarding the confidence of the North Carolina baseball program. In their fourth consecutive College World Series, the Tar Heels fought off elimination on Tuesday with a statement 11-4 win over Southern Miss. The Golden Eagles were outmatched, as UNC equaled a CWS record 23 hits in the game.
