The Boston College Eagles have made a significant mark in the ACC Tournament, achieving an upset victory over the No. 6-seeded Virginia Cavaliers. Leading the charge was Josiah Ragsdale, the Eagles’ leadoff hitter, who delivered a crucial opposite-field double that brought in two runs, shifting the momentum in favor of the Eagles late in the game.
With this win, the Eagles now advance to face the No. 3-seeded North Carolina, where they are poised to take on another challenging opponent. This season’s ACC Tournament has been notable for the series of surprises, with lower-seeded teams like the Eagles stepping up and demonstrating that they can compete at a high level despite their regular-season record.
The highly anticipated quarterfinal match against North Carolina is scheduled for Friday at 7 p.m. and will be broadcast on the ACC Network.
In addition to baseball, other athletic events are also in the spotlight for Boston College as the Eagles compete in the Women’s Fleet Race National Championship in St. Mary’s City, Maryland.
Notably, there have been other achievements within the Boston College athletics. Junior goalkeeper Shea Dolce earned the IWLCA National Defensive Player of the Week award following an impressive performance in the NCAA Quarterfinals against Yale.
As the Eagles continue their journey in the tournament, there’s a growing sense of excitement and hope among fans and players alike. The team’s late-season surge serves as an inspiring reminder of resilience and determination in pursuit of success.
