Carolina started the season ranked as high as #5 in some polls but disappointed and missed the NCAA tournament.
Coming into the baseball season, there were very high expectations for the UNC baseball team. The team was nearly unanimously considered a top 20 squad and some saw the Heels as a top 5 squad. Many thought that this time of year would be time for yet another Chapel Hill regional in the NCAA tournament. However as we all know the Heels fell short of all of those goals and failed to make the NCAA field amid posting a losing record within the ACC.
