TO THE EDITOR:
Does someone on the sports desk want to tell me why there was not a single word uttered about our No. 24 baseball team’s performance this past weekend in the paper? Not only did they start the season with a 3-0 performance in the USC tournament, they also beat then-No. 8 Cal State Fullerton on the road to start the season off with a 4-0 record.
This year should be an interesting one for the Diamond Heels with not one for-sure starter on the mound, which is a different situation than in previous years. But with the likes of Chris Munnelly and Patrick Johnson ready to go on the rubber backed up by numerous other strong arms, it should be a good year for the Tar Heels pitching crew. See how easy that was?
This seems to be the case year in and year out for the DTH. A sport that is considered by the majority to be the primary spring sport has received little coverage from you throughout my four years here. These away games are much more important to report about because we do not have a chance to see them ourselves, unlike the first three-game home series of the season, which I will attend this weekend. Show a little pride for our highly skilled baseball team.
