EAST GREENSBORO (February 14, 2019) – It is not about what North Carolina A&T accomplished. It is about what N.C. A&T wants to accomplish. That is the attitude for the program as it heads into the 2019 season 2 p.m., Friday, February 15 at War Memorial Stadium against the Niagara Purple Eagles.
The two teams will play a 2 p.m. doubleheader on Friday before playing a single game at 3 p.m., on Saturday. The Aggies will start senior right-hander Tim Luth (6-3, 3.98 ERA in 2018) for Game 1 and newcomer and junior college transfer Evan Gates (6-1, 185, JR, RHP) will pitch the second game. Saturday’s starter is All-MEAC performer and RHP Michael Johnson (7-2, 3.82 ERA in 2018).
N.C. A&T is coming off a 2018 season that saw them win the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) regular-season Southern Division title, the MEAC tournament and they advanced to the NCAA Chapel Hill Regional where they faced UNC and Purdue.
On their way there they broke the school record for wins by going 32-25 and they broke the school record for conference wins with a 16-8 mark. But even with 18 players back from their historic season, even with four players on the preseason all-conference team and even with the fact they have been picked to repeat as Southern Division champions, the Aggies are moving on with life.
