Lucas: UNC vs. Ole Miss Friday CWS Rapid Reactions

Posted Jun 12, 2026
What a performance by the Tar Heels in Omaha, beating Ole Miss 6-2. Carolina got a little bit from everybody. It started with Jason DeCaro, who fired 6.2 innings of excellent baseball, allowing just two runs on five hits and tying his career high with nine strikeouts. Put that with his super regional performance and he's been a star in the postseason. (GoHeels.com)
