Unc baseball sweeps Stony Brook, pulls to 12: 0 and starts 2025 season

The Diamond Heels remained undefeated in 2025 by completing a three-game sweple from Stony Brook at the Boshamer stage at the weekend.

At the start of the series on Friday, Carolina led to the damage in the early stages until the end of the fourth inning was a solo homerun by Perry Harget. Hargett started his first career after a star round a week and has hit the first Diamond-Verse in the NCAA Super Regionals against West Virginia since Vance Honeycutt, in successive bats (he met one in his last bat against North Carolina A&T). Ironically, Hargett wears Jersey No. 7 Honeycutt, who became famous in Chapel Hill during his time.

After Hargett stolen the second base on a wild field and rose in third place on a wild field, he again scored in fourth place on a Jackson van de Brake Groundout. Gavin Gallaher brought in two more runs with a double later in the inning before stealing home to score himself. Alex Madera drove on a triple in the fifth run of the inn.

Although the result was never doubtful, UNC really broke out the game with an eighth inning with eight runs. Tyson Bass, Madera, Sawyer Black, Carter French, Reece Holbrook and Parker McCoy drove during the inn.

Pitcher Jason Decaro UNC gave the longest start of his career on the hill; The second year lasted 7.2 Innerings, while only one run with four goals and three Seaawolves was hit. Tom Chmielewski and Boston Flannery combined the last four outs in the 16-2 victory.

The second game of the series was not nearly as high, but the Diamond Heels still had control over all nine innings. In the first run of the game, Hunter Stokely drove with an RBI Groundout at the bottom of the first and then caused even more damage in the third. He started a Homerun with two runs to increase the leadership of UNC to 4: 0.

Luke Stevenson joined the Homerun derby in fourth and blew up another two-run shot after Stony Brook cut the deficit to 4: 1. Three UNC jugs would keep the Seawolves away from the scoreboard for the rest of the afternoon. Starter Jake Knapp won his first victory with five innings in 2023, only left one run and took eight. Ryan Lynch excluded six Seaawolves in the next three innings and only allowed one goal before Matthew Matthijs bang the door for a 6-1 victory in the ninth.

In the final of the series on Sunday, Carolina jumped at an early 7-0 lead over the shoulders of a strong start by Pitcher Aidan Haegh and Three Rbis by Hunter Stokely. Stokely drove a run with a single in the first, a victim in the fifth and another single in the sixth. He later came on a bass single in the sixth inning.

Hagh stuck to the seventh inning, eight Seaawolves turned out and only allowed two runs, both of whom came in his last framework. After Hagh had approved a two-RBI double, Camron Seagraves made the UNC starter made it easier and recorded the last two outs of the inning with strikes. But Seagraves came into difficulty even in the eighth and allowed a single and a walk before making a seat Matthew Matthijs. He recorded two outs before Stony Brook met for a three-run Homerun, which lowered the UNC lead to 7: 5.

After Matthijs came out of the inning, Bass made a valuable insurance with an explosion of two runs in the bottom of eighth place and brought the advantage to 9-5. Walker McDuffie worked for a leadoff walk in ninth place to end the UNC -Sweep.

The 12-0 start of the Diamond Heels has been the best program since 2013 when the team started 16-0 on the way to Men's College World Series. UNC will try to extend his flawless start when it is organized on Tuesday at 4 p.m. at the Bosham Stadium Coastal Carolina in the Boshamer Stadium
