Baseball America Ranks NC State Baseball 13th in Their Way-Too-Early 2025 Preseason Top-25

Baseball America has released their Way-Too-Early 2025 Preseason Top-25, and they ranked NC State 13th.

13. NC State (38-23, 18-11)

The Wolfpack rolled through the second half of the 2024 season to reach the CWS for the second time in four years. They now must replace several key pieces of that team, including All-Americans Jacob Cozart and Alec Makarewicz. That duo is just part of six regulars that were lost from the lineup.

While NC State is reloading offensively, it brings back a good bit of its pitching staff. The dynamic relief combination of Jacob Dudan and Derrick Smith is back, as are lefthanders Dominic Fritton and Cooper Consiglio. NC State never lacks for offense and as long as its newcomers click, it should be well positioned for 2025. (BA)
