Lucas: Rapid Reactions - UNC vs. Arizona Super Regional Game 2
It will be winner take all Sunday, as Arizona held on for a 10-8 win in game two of the super regional. The story of the game was the Arizona offense. The Wildcats pounded 16 hits, and until
Folger Boaz retired them in order in the eighth, they had a hit in every inning. Every Wildcat hitter in the starting lineup had at least one hit. It was that kind of day. (

Lucas: The Response
Before the sold-out Boshamer crowd had even realized how sweltering it was (answer: very), the visitors had a 1-0 lead against the ACC Pitcher of the Year. They'd scored a run...on
