CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — The state of North Carolina has been good to Will McEntire.
The right hander’s 5 2/3-inning scoreless start Sunday at the NCAA Chapel Hill Super Regional was arguably his best college outing, especially given the circumstance. It helped Arkansas to a 4-3 victory over North Carolina, which clinched the Razorbacks’ latest trip to the College World Series.
