NC State finally wins a one-run game, but Elliott Avent is still in trouble

NC State broke through on Sunday afternoon with its first victory of the 2015 season in a one-run game. The Wolfpack's Bubby Riley hit a solo shot in the bottom of the ninth to give State a 4-3 win and even the series with the Wahoos. NC State is now 1-7 in one-run games on the year, and 1-5 in one-run conference games.

It's been an outlier year for the baseball team in that respect, and unfortunately it has the team in poor shape for the NCAAs. If the Pack's luck were a bit better--just average--then its post-season prospects would look more promising.
