TOP STORYLINES

• Georgia Tech baseball looks to keep momentum during its road swing, heading for its second ACC series, at No. 20 North Carolina on March 22-24.

• The Jackets and Tar Heels have squared off 155 times previously since 1901, ranking as the fifth most-common opponent in Tech’s history. Tech holds a 83-72 advantage.

• Tech is riding an nine-game win streak after sweeping then-No. 13 NC State last weekend and winning in dramatic fashion at Ga. State – good for sixth-longest active win streak in the country and second-longest in the ACC.

• Georgia Tech’s bats has been elite in both patience and power. Tech is one of just four teams in the country only ACC team to rank top-15 in both walks and home runs.

• Leading Tech’s offense has been Payton Green, who’s hitting .380 with 14 extra-base hits, 20 RBI and 17 walks.

• Burress and Ellis combined for ninth-inning heroics on Tuesday as Burress tied the game on an RBI double before Ellis homered to give Tech a two-run lead.

• Burress continues to run a strong campaign for Freshman of the Year, currently leading all freshmen nationally in five statistical categories and all ACC freshmen in eight categories.

• Tech’s pitching has been much improved this season, working eight scoreless innings last night and only allowing two earned runs and one walk.

• Tech’s starting pitchers are averaging a 4.21 ERA, 8-2 record and nearly 3:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio.

• Aeden Finateri (3.60) and Logan McGuire (3.79) both sport sub-4.00 ERA through a combined nine starts.
