SCOUTING BOSTON COLLEGE
Boston College (15-4, 4-2 ACC) has had a hot start to its 2023 campaign, winning all four of its weekend series to open the season. The Eagles have also impressed in midweek action, earning a 7-6 victory in Knoxville over then-No. 2 Tennessee. Despite dropping the opening game of each of its first two ACC weekend series, the Eagles responded with back-to-back wins to clinch road series wins at Virginia Tech and Florida State. Boston College is 1-1 this week after playing a pair of local midweek matchups against Northeastern (L, 6-2) and Sacred Heart (W, 8-7). This weekend's series at Harrington Athletics Village will mark Boston College's first home weekend series of the season. At the plate, Barry Walsh leads the Eagles with a .359 batting average and 23 total hits. Joe Vetrano and Cameron Leary pace Boston College with six homers apiece. On the mound, Chris Flynn holds a perfect 5-0 record with a 0.91 ERA. Flynn was named the ACC Pitcher of the Week this past week after tossing a BC career-high seven innings while striking out nine batters with just one walk.
