NC State defeated in-state foe ECU (20-14) 4-1 in Greenville this evening, improving to 22-11 on the year.
Anderson Nance, one of the best freshman pitchers in the ACC in 2025, lived up to that reputation tonight. Entering the game in the 4th inning, Nance pitched five scoreless innings, allowing only a lone single in the bottom of the 8th. He threw 80 pitches—his second-highest total of the year—striking out five while walking none. Nance now boasts a 3.37 ERA and a 4-1 record, tying Junior Dominic Fritton for the most wins on the team, which is impressive considering he has only started one game.
