Irish Earn Eight Seed in ACC Championship

DURHAM, N.C. – The Notre Dame Fighting Irish earned the eight seed in the 2023 ACC Baseball Championship hosted at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park in Durham, North Carolina.

The No. 8 seed Irish (30-22, 15-15 ACC) are in Pool A where they’ll open up tournament play with No. 12 seed Pitt (23-30, 10-18). They are set to play on Wednesday, May 24 at 11 AM. The Irish won the regular-season series over the Panthers on the road in early April, taking game one 10-8 and game two 11-2 before falling to Pitt in the final game 9-5.

Notre Dame will also face the No. 1 seed in the tournament and No. 1 team in the country, Wake Forest (45-9, 22-7 ACC). The Irish went 1-2 against Wake Forest in mid-March, as Notre Dame delivered the first home loss to the Demon Deacons this season. After falling in the first two games in a doubleheader, the Irish won game three in a 3-1 victory over Wake Forest on their home turf. The Irish are set to play the Demon Deacons on Friday, May 26 at 7 PM.
