I understand UNC is OOC, but they are still a ranked team. A win tonight would still mean a lot in our standings and really give the team a boost going against an even higher ranked team. Beating #13 don't mean you are ready to beat #1, but it does mean you can compete with a high ranked team.

True, but it would also be so righteous to beat a ranked Tar Heel team with our bench players.
 
It was great to see the pitching staff and defense so strong. Gave up a couple runs but UNC did not get anywhere.
And to see the bottom of our lineup bring in the first couple runs was big. Way too many ground outs by our bigs last night. They never showed up until the 8th inning.
 
Yardcocks shut-out the Tar Heels 5-0 last night.
