This weekend’s stop was Louisville, KY, for the Atlantic Coast Conference Opening Weekend series of North Carolina vs. Louisville. Gray skies, cool temperatures and not even wintry mix precipitation could keep the Tar Heels and Cardinals from squaring off as scheduled in their Friday ACC opener. With the Cardinals dressed head to toe in their black UNISWAG Adidas uniforms and the Tar Heels in their traditional Carolina Blue & gray, the Cardinals won the game 5-4, and then went on to win the series 2-1. Both teams battled the cold throughout the weekend, but played well in front of sparse crowds and rowdy spectators who seemed to have anger issues with the umpires. All in all, it was a very entertaining weekend of good college baseball. As for tools and talent, here's a breakdown of what was on display.
