Posted May 23, 2026
There have been plenty of home run derbies at the ACC tournament this week, and No. 2 North Carolina joined in the fun Saturday. The Tar Heels belted six home runs, two from Rom Kellis II, and rolled to a 13-5 victory over Pitt in the semifinals at Truist Field. It was the most UNC home runs since they blasted seven at Pittsburgh nearly 13 months ago. (Tar Heel Tribune)
