Tar Heels adjust their outlook

Posted Feb 19, 2010
North Carolina's baseball team will be missing many of the stars who helped the Tar Heels reach four consecutive College World Series. Dustin Ackley, UNC's all-time leader in hits and runs, was drafted by the Seattle Mariners. Kyle Seager (Mariners), Garrett Gore and Mark Fleury (Cincinnati Reds) have moved on. The four combined for 373 hits, 46 home runs, 239 RBIs and 245 runs last season. (Raleigh News & Observer)
