Zac Gallen's journey to becoming UNC's ace

Posted May 19, 2015
North Carolina right handed pitcher Zac Gallen began his baseball career a long way away from the mound. He was five years old and tossed out in right field on his dad’s little league team full of seven, eight and nine year-olds. But he wasn’t making daisy chains or daydreaming. Instead he had his mind on the mound as he stood there practicing his pitching motion over and over. (Durham Herald-Sun)
