Interview with ACC Baseball Co-Freshman of the Year: Aaron Sabato, the Heavy Hitting Tar Heel

Posted Jun 24, 2019
Aaron Sabato: "When I started being able to have a plan and realize what I can do, I started brushing off bad outs and not get too hyped if I got a hit or too low if I struck out. Just staying even keel, keeping my confidence, and trusting my ability was the biggest thing. That was the biggest difference between the beginning-of-the-year me and me now."
