Public records provide some insight into NC State’s College World Series exit

If you missed it earlier in the week, the N&O’s Andrew Carter wrote extensively on NC State’s College World Series debacle, based on documents he obtained via public records request.

Those records provide some clarity on the timeline of events in Omaha, starting with the first positive test within State’s traveling party, which came the day after the Pack’s 1-0 win over Vanderbilt. By the end of Friday, eight members of the 40-person traveling party had tested positive for COVID-19, and NC State was out of the tournament.

There was and remains a lot of confusion about the NCAA’s handling of the entire process, and in an email to Chancellor Randy Woodson, Elliott Avent did a lot of venting.
