NC State baseball a consensus top-15 team heading into NCAA Regional
NC State baseball is a regional host as it begins a new season in the NCAA Tournament. And as the Wolfpack closed ACC play on a surge, it has also continued to rise in the weekly rankings around the country.
D1Baseball ranked the Pack as the No. 11 team in the country entering this week’s regional, up one spot from last week’s poll. Baseball America, meanwhile, slotted the Wolfpack at No. 7, the same spot it was in last week’s iteration.
