Another Pitching Challenge Awaits Virginia Tech Baseball In No. 12 North Carolina

Posted Apr 18, 2025
If you’re an ACC baseball team, No. 12 UNC’s pitching staff is probably the last one you want to see a week after being shut down by No. 9 Florida State’s high-echelon arms. It begins with Jake Knapp and Aidan Haugh, the Tar Heels’ respective Friday and Saturday starters. Knapp is first in the ACC in ERA (1.58) with a 7-0 record, just 10 walks and a .88 WHIP.
