Diamond Heels Dominate Duke 22-5 To Take Series
April 25, 2026 | Baseball
Â
The No. 2 Tar Heels (36-8-1, 17-7 ACC) took their seventh straight ACC series on the back of 18 hits, the most in conference play this year, that produced their most runs since putting up 25 against Princeton in 2010. 22 is the most runs UNC has put up in an ACC contest since beating Maryland 23-8 in 2000. It is the 11th time this century that the program has scored 22 or more in a single game.
Â
After a pair of scoreless frames to start, Carolina put up a crooked number in five straight innings to run away with the showdown between the historic rivals. Duke would throw nine different arms in an attempt to slow down the Heels' attack, but only their starter lasted more than 1.0 inning and five pitchers went 0.1 or less. Â
Â
More to come.
