College baseball on upswing in North Carolina
Posted May 25, 2008
"North Carolina has really good baseball," said Kyle Seager, a UNC infielder. "I think a lot of people are starting to realize that." A lot more will realize that Monday, when the field for the NCAA tournament is announced. It's very possible that six teams from the state could be part of that 64-team field. So there's no question that the state of North Carolina has become a power in college baseball. There is another question, though: How did this happen?
