*Radio reports from Omaha for stations in Nashville and Florence, AL
*Lunch at Addy’s Sports Bar…fantastic “Char Buffed” wings that are chargrilled, smoky with a hint of buffalo sauce!
*The Vols practiced late in the afternoon back at Creighton University
*Started prep for Tennessee’s opponent on Tuesday in an elimination game Texas
*Returned to TD Ameritrade Park and enjoyed a fabulous pitching duel between Jack Leiter (15 Ks for Vandy) and Sam Highfill/Evan Justice (2 hits allowed for NC State) in a 1-0 Wolfpack win sending them to the semifinals at 2-0.
According to ESPN Stats & Info…
NC State is the first team to beat the overall #1 seed (Arkansas) and the defending National Champs (Vandy) in the same NCAA tournament.
They're the fourth team to face both in same tourney since seeding began in 1999
