NC State splits twin bill with BC, takes series

NC State pounded out 20 hits in the first game of its doubleheader Saturday against Boston College and took the series—having already won the opener Friday—with a 13-7 win. The Wolfpack fell flat in the second game as the Eagles emphatically avoided the sweep, embarrassing State 11-3 at the Doak at Dail.

Saturday’s first game started ominously, as the Eagles jumped out to a 3-0 lead against normally reliable State starter Johnny Piedmonte. State’s senior righty gave up three hits and walked a pair while allowing those three runs; he only managed to get five outs.
