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.

Again, can't leave that pitch up. Getting squeezed isn't helping Matt, but he's gotta snap that one off to lefties.

What was that stat they showed last night...80+% of regional winners do NOT come from the loser bracket? Hope that holds true for us.

Get ingle loose...keep Villaman in your back pocket...if our offense decides to wake up and we take the lead, being in Villaman...if not, let ingle ride it out then you've got Villaman and Justice for tomorrow

We weren't ever going to win scoring zero. I wouldn't have felt good only scoring three or four in the Love Shack.

Bats need to go to work.

That has to go on the pitching coach who called it again. If he hits your fastball he hits. You serve it up like that after he has already crushed one and that is all on who called the pitch. Ridiculous.
Being an N. C. State fan builds great character!

~81% of super regional teams were in our position (2-0).

Matt's thrown two bad pitches. Both of them happen to have been deposited into the right field seats, but that's baseball. Just chip away and do what we've done all year.

Unless they've got a feed in the dugout, not sure why you would try to challenge that just using your naked eye.

Is that head games after the ACCT debacle? No idea why you would challenge that unless you are trying to make guys question their jumps

Pitcher losing his command a little bit and the zone suddenly doesn't include the batter's box.
