RALEIGH — The 2026 season has been loaded with trials and tribulations for NC State baseball. Injuries to critical members of the starting rotation, blown leads and inconsistency defined a difficult stretch throughout the end of March and much of April. However, the Wolfpack remains a competitive ACC program in the mix for a postseason berth, especially after last weekend's success. The Wolfpack secured a series win over Miami , ending a stretch of back-to-back weekends on the road without a series victory after trips to Wake Forest and Virginia Tech. There were bright spots in midweek wins over East Carolina during that period of time, which helped the Pack improve its standing in some of the key metrics. Where do things stand now?
