Carolina Rallies Past East Carolina, 11-10

Posted Jun 3, 2007

Dustin Ackley wasn't around for North Carolina's thrill-a-minute run to the College World Series. Because the freshman came through in the clutch, the Tar Heels remain in prime position for another deep postseason charge. Ackley singled home the winning run to cap North Carolina's three-run rally in the ninth inning, helping the Tar Heels beat East Carolina 11-10 on Saturday night in the Chapel Hill Regional.
