Top seeded UNC baseball eliminated from ACC Championship play in loss to Pittsburgh

Posted May 24, 2018
The No. 5 Tar Heels had already played a three-game series against Pittsburgh earlier this year and outscored the Panthers 32-5, but that was all over. It looked like UNC might run away with it early and continue dominating the Panthers, quickly tacking on two runs in the top half of the first inning. Josh Hiatt displayed terrific pitching for the Tar Heels once again. (Daily Tar Heel)
