UNC baseball faces long climb back to top

Posted Feb 17, 2010
UNC junior Colin Bates admitted it was a little weird walking into the locker room for the first time this fall and not seeing first-round MLB draft picks Dustin Ackley and Alex White, as well as draftees Kyle Seager, Mark Fleury, Adam Warren and Brian Moran. But with the Tar Heels’ season set to start Friday against George Washington (3 p.m.) at Boshamer Stadium, Bates also said he has gotten over that weirdness. (Durham Herald-Sun)
