GOIN’ TO CAROLINA – The Notre Dame baseball program continues its challenging start to the 2007 season this weekend with a rare trip to South Carolina, to play in the Baseball at the Beach tournament (hosted by Coastal Carolina) …. the six-team event is to be played at two sites, with all of the ND games in Myrtle Beach at Coastal Federal Field (home of the minor-league Myrtle Beach Pelicans) … Dave Schrage last week became just the second ND baseball coach since 1924 to win his debut game with the Irish (the 15-8 win over Prairie View A&M was the most runs in an ND coach’s debut since 1908) … the Irish face UNC Wilmington (3-4) and #12 TCU (6-1) to open the tournament (Feb. 23 and 24, both at 4:00 EST) before taking on the host Coastal Carolina team (7-0) on the 25th at 12:30 … LHP Wade Korpi and RHPs David Phelps and Brett Graffy comprise the starting rotation for the Irish (the opponents each are slated to start RHPs) … note that additional gameday notes will be released prior to each game, with those notes including updated bio. capsules … Friday and Sunday’s games will air live in the South Bend area on the usual radio station (1490 AM) while Saturday’s game will be carried on 1620 (all game audio also is streamed live online at und.com).
