UNC Infielder Gavin Gallaher Sets Sights Higher for 2025

Posted Jan 2, 2025
Gavin Gallaher had his North Carolina coming-out moment on one of the biggest stages, in an unforgettable way. Gallaher has hit long balls before. He hit for the home run cycle in a game at age 12. He pounded eight homers his freshman season at UNC. All those were dwarfed May 31 when he hit a towering walk-off grand slam, the first for UNC since 2010. (Inside Carolina)
