>> In a re-match of the 2012 ACC Championship Game, Georgia Tech and Miami collide this weekend in Coral Gables in the regular-season finale for both teams.

>> The series begins Thursday at 7:30 p.m. at Mark Light Stadium and all three games can be seen live on CSS and ESPN3 with Jason Solodkin and Randy Carroll, while Nolan Alexander and Wade Rogers have the call on WREK.

>> Tech and Miami split their four games last season, with the Hurricanes taking two in Atlanta on the final weekend of the season, and Jackets winning, 8-5, in Greensboro to capture the ACC Championship. Miami leads the all-time series 49-31-2.

>> Georgia Tech picked up a crucial, late-season marquee series win over No. 2 North Carolina in dramatic fashion this past weekend, winning Friday and Sunday with walk-off hits — a ninth-inning homer Friday from Mott Hyde and an 11th-inning single from Zane Evans on Sunday.

>> Evans has a team-leading eight game-winning RBI this season, with six coming in Tech’s last 12 wins. Evans is hitting .366 with the ACC’s second-most homers (14) and fourth-most RBI (59).

>> Junior LF Kyle Wren, who scored the game-winner on Evans’ single in Sunday’s win over Carolina, leads the team with eight game-winning runs this season. Wren is hitting .375 (fourth in the ACC) and is the league’s only player with 80 hits (84).

>> Senior RHP Buck Farmer, who gets the call Thursday night, is the NCAA’s active leader in wins (32) and strikeouts (363).
