Tar Heels Rally to 9-3 Win Over ECU, Advance to NCAA Super Regionals

North Carolina baseball defeated East Carolina 9-3 in the Chapel Hill Regional final to advance to the NCAA Super Regionals. The Tar Heels leaned on timely hitting, strong pitching, and a bullpen sequence that included Folger Boaz, Walker McDuffie, and Jackson Rose to preserve an 8-1 lead. ECU starter Ryan Towers exited early and UNC stretched the advantage, while UNC’s bench—Carter French and Rom Kellis V—also contributed. UNC now awaits the winner of the Texas A&M College Station regional for a super-regional series; the Tar Heels are 41-8 in Chapel Hill regional play, and UCLA’s upset of top seeds is part of a shifting postseason landscape.

Oklahoma catcher Kendall Wells was hit in the helmet by a pitch during the Norman Super Regional vs. Mississippi State, left briefly, then returned to catch as coach Patty Gasso noted she looked woozy and would be monitored. Wells went 0-for-2 but stayed behind the plate for the rest of the game. She capped a historic freshman season with 39 home runs (NCAA freshman and OU single-season HR records, plus the SEC single-season HR mark), a .358 average and 88 RBIs. With the season over, Oklahoma turns to the transfer portal, which opens June 8 and runs through June 22 for players to declare their intent to explore options.
