NC State baseball’s season will continue this weeked in the NCAA regional round. After falling just short in a 1-0 loss to Duke in the ACC Championship Game, the Wolfpack will look to advance to a Super Regional for the first time since 2013 by winning the Ruston, Louisana Regional, hosted by Louisiana Tech.

After starting the regular season 1-8 and then finishing 24-6 and making it the conference title game, the Pack will be the 2-seed in this regional behind 1-seed Louisiana Tech. The Wolfpack will start things off against 3-seed Alabama Friday at 3 p.m. on ESPN3. 4-seed Rider rounds out the group. 

Alabama went 31-24 overall this year and finished 11th in a loaded SEC. Louisana Tech went 40-18 and fell to Old Dominion in the Conference USA Championship game. Rider finished 23-16 but won the MAAC Tournament. 

The winner of this regional would face the winner of the Fayetteville, Araknas Regional, hosted by No. 1 overall seed Arkansas, in the Super Regional round. 

Stay tuned to IPS for much more on NC State’s upcoming matchups in this regional.

Once Highfill figures out his strikeout pitch this offseason he is basically an RJ clone

It's the slider or running fastball from the sidearm slot, but it hasn't been working the last few outings. He can make guys look silly with that one.

In all of espn, it's odd they couldn't find an analyst that played baseball. Anecdotal story, I encountered him on the sidelines during a football game a few years ago and he was an *******.

No business whatsoever being the analyst. I can't believe that they couldn't find any former players or coaches to break down the games. Instead we get Roddy's beautiful analysis of field turf

I love the heat we have out of the bullpen. Doubt LT has seen many pitchers like EJ or Villaman during their season.

Not just that, but they've consistently gotten the low and away pitch, which is devastating against right handers.

One of the reasons Torres chased I think.
