State championship baseball pairings announced

  The pairings and the schedules are set for the 96th annual North Carolina High School Athletic Association state baseball championships.

This year the 1-A and 4-A best-of-three championship series will be held at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and the 2-A and 3-A finals will be played at Five County Stadium in Zebulon, home of the Carolina Mudcats.  Doak Field at N.C. State has hosted a couple of championship series annually for a number of years, but this year N.C. State is hosting an NCAA baseball regional and the facility is not available.
