By Adam Lucas1. Carolina got what it needed with a 4-0 opening game shutout of Holy Cross. The Tar Heels got terrific pitching, very good defense and enough offense to move into the winner's bracket, which is all that matters in this type of game. 2. Another outstanding outing from Carolina starter Jake Knapp. The ACC Pitcher of the Year threw 8.1 tremendous innings before a hit in the ninth cost him a complete game bid.
