IN THE BATTERS BOX -- Wake Forest returns to the friendly confines of Hooks Stadium this weekend for a three-game series with Virginia Tech. The Demon Deacons (20-7, 5-4 ACC) enter the weekend in a tie for second place with NC State in the Atlantic Division. Game times are 2:30 pm (Friday), 1:00 pm (Saturday) and 1:00 pm (Sunday). All three games can be heard exclusively on WakeForestSports.com as Stan Cotten and Cory Provus call the action.
VIRGINIA TECH INSIDER -- The Hokies, led by 27th-year head coach Chuck Hartman, enter the series with an overall record of 10-14 and 1-8 in the ACC. Virginia Tech was swept last weekend in Blacksburg by ACC newcomer Boston College, but two of the three games went into extra-innings. The Hokies are hitting .275 overall with a .379 on-base percentage. Virginia Tech has hit 22 home runs and stolen 27 bases in 43 attempts. Nate Parks leads the Hokies with a .360 batting average and has swiped an ACC-best 18 bases. Bryan Thomas is hitting .330 with four home runs and a team-high 30 RBI. Matt Hacker and Sean O'Brien are the other two Hokies batting over .300. Hacker is hitting at a .305 clip, while O'Brien sits at .300. The pitching staff has a 6.07 ERA, second worst in the ACC, and their opponents are batting .307. The staff has struck out a league-worst 150 against 109 walks. The starting rotation of Greg Fryman, David Cross and Nicky Bowers have combined for an 4-8 record, 5.11 ERA, 67 strikeouts and 40 walks in 14 starts. Adam Redd is 4-2 with a 2.45 ERA in 12 appearances out of the Hokie bullpen. He has struck out 21 against four walks. Virginia Tech's defense has a .958 fielding percentage, committing 40 errors in 24 games.
INJURY UPDATE -- Freshman starting pitcher Garrett Bullock will likely return from his bout with pneumonia this weekend against Virginia Tech... redshirt senior starting pitcher Justin Keadle will start Sunday's game against the Hokies... junior starting pitcher Charlie Mellies remains out with a elbow injury... sophomore starting outfielder Brett Linnenkohl is sidelined with an injured hamstring and is scheduled to return for the series at NC State (April 7-9)... sophomore pitcher Matt Hammond is out for the year after breaking his right hand... freshman Cory Hindel will redshirt the season following elbow surgery last fall.

DEACON TIDBITS --
- The Wake Forest offense went silent in their three-game series at No. 21 Virginia. The Demon Deacons managed just seven runs and batted only .204. Wake Forest did not register a single home run and just three extra-base hits in the three games.
- The Demon Deacons blanked High Point, 7-0, on March 22 for their third shutout of the 2006 season. Wake Forest did not register a single shutout in 2004 or 2005. In fact, the Deacons have not had three shutouts in a single season since 2000.
- Sophomore closer Ben Hunter has been nearly perfect this season. The right-hander, who leads the ACC with eight saves, has not allowed an earned run in his 15 appearances. Hunter has struck out 29 in 23.2 innings. In fact, he has allowed just 10 hits all year and opponents are batting just .128 against him. Hunter is a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities.
- Senior setup-man Kyle Young has excelled since moving back into the bullpen on February 21. The right-handed hurler is 2-0 with a 2.77 ERA in 26.0 innings of work. Young has struck out 14 over his 11 appearances.
- Junior All-American Matt Antonelli has had quite a power surge in 2006. The third basemen entered this season with seven career home runs, five of which came in 2005, but Antonelli has smacked seven over the Demon Deacons first 27 games. In fact, six of the seven homers have been hit to the opposite field.
- Junior Josh Ellis struggled in his first two appearances this season. In a start against Charlotte and a relief appearance against UNC Wilmington, Ellis was 0-2 with a 14.14 ERA. Ellis has since changed his arm angle and been absolutely dominant. Over his last 14 appearances, all out of the Wake Forest bullpen, he has posted a 1.10 ERA in 16.1 innings. Opponents are batting just .203 against him over the stretch and he has struck out 25 against only four walks.
- Freshman Allan Dykstra is making quite a name for himself early in his Wake Forest career. The first baseman leads the ACC in home runs (9) and leads the Deacons in RBI (27). Dykstra is on pace for 19 home runs and 56 RBI (assuming Dykstra gets 200 at-bats). The 19 home runs would break the single-season freshman record set by Jamie D'Antona in 2001 and the 56 RBI would rank as the second-most ever by a freshman.
- Sophomore pitcher Eric Niesen was dominant against Virginia last weekend in his first start of 2006. The southpaw picked up the victory in the 3-2 victory over the No. 21 Cavaliers on March 25. He tossed 5.0 shutout innings. Niesen did not allow a single Cavalier into scoring position. He yielded just two hits, both singles, including one that barely rolled past the mound. Niesen struck out a career-high seven and did not walk a single batter. He had only thrown 57 pitches over the five innings, but was forced to leave the game after ripping his left middle fingernail. He only pitched out of a multiple ball count on three occasions. In fact, Virginia only had one at-bat over the first five innings with a three-ball count. Over his two-year career against Virginia, Niesen is 1-0 and has not allowed a run in 8.0 innings of work. He has punched out nine, walked three and allowed just two hits.
DYKSTRA ENTERS THE RECORD BOOKS -- Wake Forest freshman Allan Dykstra entered the Demon Deacon all-time record books last Tuesday in an 14-6 rout of Davidson. Dykstra became the ninth player in WFU history to hit three homers in a game and finished with a career-high five RBI. The first baseman joined a prestigious list that includes the likes of Jamie D'Antona and Bill Merrifield -- both former ACC Player of the Year winners and All-Americans. D'Antona was the last player to hit three homers in a game on May 26, 2001 versus Tennessee Tech in the NCAA Regional. Dykstra enters the weekend first in the ACC with nine homers.
FINISHING STRONG -- Wake Forest has proved it can play with a lead, as evidenced by the fact the Demon Deacons have not lost a single game in 2006 in which they led after an inning. In fact, Wake Forest is 19-0 when leading after six innings, 19-0 when leading after seven innings and 18-0 when leading after eight innings.
KINGS OF THE MOUND -- Wake Forest's pitching staff is vastly improved from each of the past two years. The Deacons might have the deepest and most talented staff in recent memory, including any staff of the three ACC Tournament Championship teams (1998, 1999, 2001). Wake Forest has posted a 3.84 ERA to this point of the season, well down from 6.21 in 2005 and 7.12 in 2004. In fact, the team ERA for the 1998, 1999 and 2001 clubs was 4.87 (2001), 4.82 (1999) and 4.26 (1998). The 3.84 ERA would be the lowest single-season ERA since 1980.
MAKING AN IMPACT -- The impact of a freshman class normally takes some time to discover, but SS Dustin Hood, 1B Allan Dykstra, LHP Garrett Bullock and RHP Brad Kledzik have yielded immediate results. Hood hits second in the lineup and leads the Demon Deacons in batting average (.346) and hits (37). Dykstra bats cleanup and leads the Deacons and ACC in home runs (9), leads Wake in RBI (27) and ranks third on the team in batting average (.301). Bullock, who has missed the past three weeks with pneumonia, is 1-0 with a save and a 5.40 ERA. Bullock picked up the victory against Ohio State and struck out seven Buckeyes in the outing. Kledzik has moved into the ACC weekend rotation and been solid. He is 1-2 with a 2.50 ERA in 18.0 innings. He has struck out 11 and walked six.
MR. DURABLE -- Junior All-American Matt Antonelli takes the term "everyday player" to another level. Antonelli has not only started every game of his entire Demon Deacon career, but he has done so at the same position. He has started 135 consecutive games at the hot corner.
HOW DO THE 2006 DEMON DEACONS COMPARE TO THE BEST TEAMS OF THE PAST -- At 20-7 overall and 5-4 in the ACC, Wake Forest is off to its best start since 2003. The key to the early success, without question, has been the Deacons pitching. Wake Forest enters the series this weekend with Virginia Tech sporting a 3.84 ERA -- better than the ERA from any of the five Wake Forest teams that reached the NCAA Regionals (1998-02). The team ERA for the 1998, 1999 and 2001 ACC Tournament championship clubs was 4.26 (1998), 4.82 (1999) and 4.87 (2001). The 2000 team posted a 4.03 ERA, while the 2002 club had a 4.34 ERA.

ANTONELLI AND YOUNG MOVING UP ALL-TIME CHARTS -- Junior Matt Antonelli walked a school record 57 times in 2005 and has recorded 20 already this season. The third basemen has drawn 109 walks over his career, tying Brick Smith for fourth most in Wake Forest school history. Antonelli needs just five more free passes to eclipse Jamie D'Antona's school record of 113. Senior pitcher Kyle Young led Wake Forest with 33 appearances in 2005 and has pitched in 14 more games in 2006. Young has appeared in 72 games over his career which ranks seventh all-time. Young has a decent chance to climb as high as second on the chart (Frank Humber, 86), but Dave Bush's ACC record of 142 games is not in danger. The 142 appearances for Bush is the second most in NCAA history.
DEACONS AT THEIR BEST AGAINST THE BEST -- With Wake Forest's 6-5 victory over No. 4 North Carolina on March 10, the Deacons picked up their second victory over a team ranked in the top five and third over a team in the top 10 this season. Wake Forest had not defeated two top five and three top 10 teams in one season since 2002. The Demon Deacons are 3-2 this season against opponents ranked in the top 10.
INSIDE THE 11-GAME WINNING STREAK --
- Wake Forest extended its winning streak to 11 games before losing to No. 4 North Carolina on March 11. The Deacons fell shy of the school record winning streak of 15 games set in 1999, but it was the longest winning streak since 2002. Over the last 50 years of Wake Forest baseball, only eight teams have won 10 or more consecutive games.
- The Demon Deacons allowed two or fewer earned runs in each of the first eight games of the winning streak.
- Wake Forest extended its streak to 83 consecutive innings without trailing at the end of a full inning before Elon grabbed a 2-0 lead after three innings on March 8.
- After opening his Wake Forest career 3-for-19 (.158), freshman Allan Dykstra found his stroke during the 11-game winning streak. The first baseman batted .432 (16-for-37) with five doubles, four home runs and 12 RBI. Dykstra slugged .892 over the span.
- In the end, the Demon Deacon pitching staff only allowed more than two earned runs in three times. Wake Forest posted a 2.52 earned run average and its opponents batted just .220 over the stretch.
- The Wake Forest baseball team moved into the Rosenblatt Report national poll at No. 24. The Demon Deacons entered the top 25 for the first time since April 14, 2003.
ENICK NATIONAL PLAYER OF THE WEEK -- Collegiate Baseball and Louisville Slugger named Wake Forest redshirt junior Brendan Enick their National Player of the Week on March 6. Enick finished the previous week with a .786 (11-for-14) batting average, two home runs and 12 RBI in just three games. He led Wake Forest for the week in batting average (.786), slugging percentage (1.429), on-base percentage (.765), hits (11), RBI (12) and doubles (3).
ACC PITCHER OF THE WEEK -- Wake Forest junior Charlie Mellies was named ACC Pitcher of the Week on February 27. The junior earned the award after tossing a five-hit, complete game shutout of No. 1 Florida. Mellies is the first Demon Deacon to receive ACC Pitcher of the Week since Kyle Sleeth earned the award on March 24, 2003.
DEACONS RECOGNIZED -- After sweeping through the 2006 Pepsi Baseball Classic, including a 4-0 shutout of top-ranked Florida, Wake Forest was named Team of the Week by Rosenblatt Report.com and CollegeBaseballInsider.com.
RECAP FROM THE PEPSI BASEBALL CLASSIC --
- The victory for Wake Forest over No. 1 Florida, 4-0, on February 26 was its first over the nation's top-ranked team since April 26, 2002 when the Deacs beat Clemson, 4-2.
- Junior Charlie Mellies not only tossed his third career complete game against the Gators, but his first career shutout. It was Wake Forest's first shutout since February 11, 2003 when the Deacons blanked Appalachian State, 26-0. Former All-American Kyle Sleeth was the last WFU pitcher to toss a complete game shutout -- blanking Maryland on April 19, 2002.
- Wake Forest captured the 2006 Pepsi Baseball Classic Tournament title and finished the weekend as the only undefeated team. After defeating No. 10 Missouri on February 25, the victory over No. 1 Florida gave the Demon Deacons consecutive wins over ranked opponents for the first time since March 15 and 16 of 2002.
- Wake Forest registered victories over members of the Big 10, Big 12 and SEC in the same season for the first time in school history. The Demon Deacons were the first ACC school to accomplish the feat since Florida State defeated Nebraska, Michigan State and Florida in 2004.
- The Demon Deacons allowed a total of five runs, only four of which were earned, the entire weekend. The four earned runs were the fewest allowed by a Wake Forest pitching staff since 1998 when the Deacons allowed just three earned runs in victories over UNC Wilmington (twice) and Radford.
- After Ohio State scored in the top of the first inning on a solo home run, Wake Forest answered with three runs of their own in the bottom of the inning and never trailed the rest of the weekend.
- In addition to Charlie Mellies being named MVP, sophomore closer Ben Hunter, sophomore catcher Austin Jones and freshman Allan Dykstra were each named to the Pepsi Baseball Classic All-Tournament team.
- Sophomore Weldon Woodall did not register a single plate appearance in 2005, but the designated hitter made his first career start on February 24 against Ohio State. After failing to pick up a hit against the Buckeyes, Woodall went 5-for-8 with a run scored and two RBI in victories over No. 10 Missouri and No. 1 Florida.
HOME OPENERS -- Wake Forest slipped past Charlotte, 4-3, in 10 innings on February 21. The Demon Deacons have won their home opener 19 of the past 20 years.
OPENING WEEKENDS -- Wake Forest has now dropped three consecutive season openers. The Deacons lost to Rice to open 2004, Winthrop in 2005 and now Charlotte. Dating back to the 1958 season (the last 50 years), Wake Forest is 30-20 on opening day. The Demon Deacons are 0-2 under Rick Rembielak on opening day and Rembielak is 6-7 all-time in his career.
AFTER FURTHER REVIEW -- Wake Forest freshman Dustin Hood had quite a debut for the Demon Deacons against Charlotte. The shortstop had seven hits in the twin bill, including five in the nightcap. Hood, who went 5-for-5 with an RBI double and two runs scored, became the first Deacon rookie to record five hits in a single game since Bill Merrifield went 5-for-8 against Georgia Tech on April 4, 1981.
YOUTH SERVING THE DEACONS WELL -- Wake Forest started three true freshman in its season opener against Charlotte on February 12 -- first basemen Allan Dykstra, left fielder Evan Ocheltree and shortstop Dustin Hood. The Deacons also used a pair of rookies out of the bullpen as well in southpaw Garrett Bullock and right-hander Brad Kledzik.
IN THE BOOKS -- Wake Forest had a number of players that recorded firsts in the season-opening doubleheader against Charlotte. In addition to the Demon Deacon debuts of five true freshman and two transfers (So., Ben Hunter, So., Austin Jones and R-So., Eric Williams), Allan Dykstra, Dustin Hood, Jones and Williams each picked up their first career hits. Dykstra, Hood and Williams also had RBI. Hunter, who made 13 starts last season for Furman, registered his first career save, while junior Brian Shust smacked his first career home run.
NATIONAL FLAVOR -- As is usually the case, the Demon Deacon baseball roster is made up from players across the United States. This year, however, it's even more apparent as 30 of the 32 players on the roster are from outside the state of North Carolina. In fact, 15 different states, including North Carolina, are represented. The only North Carolinians on the team are pitchers Kip Byrum (Sr., Greenville, N.C.) and Garrett Bullock (Fr., Greenville, N.C.) -- both of whom attended J.H. Rose HS.
ANTONELLI PRESEASON ALL-AMERICAN -- Wake Forest junior third basemen Matt Antonelli was named second team Preseason All-American by Baseball America. Antonelli, who has already been named to the Wallace Award Watch List, is the first Demon Deacon to garner Preseason All-American status since 2003.
A native of Peabody, Mass., Antonelli led Wake Forest in batting average (.332), walks (57), on-base percentage (.475) and runs scored (68) in 2005. The 57 walks set a new single-season school record surpassing the previous mark of 55 held by Billy Masse (1988). Antonelli also tied Dave Lardieri for 10th all-time in single-season school history for runs scored. He was second on the squad in hits (77) and doubles (22).
ANTONELLI, DYKSTRA NAMED TO FAB 50 -- Wake Forest junior Matt Antonelli was named to Baseball America's Fab 50: Juniors. Antonelli, a third basemen, was listed as the No. 27 junior prospect in the country. Allan Dykstra was named to the same list for freshman. Dykstra was rated as the No. 41 freshman in the country.
DEACONS TO HAVE 26 HOME DATES IN 2006 -- Wake Forest will play 26 games within the "friendly confines" of Hooks Stadium during the 2006 season, starting with Charlotte on Feb. 21. Other non-conference teams slated to visit Winston-Salem this season are: Xavier (Feb. 28), Wright State (March 3-5), Elon (March 8), Quinnipiac (March 14), High Point (March 21), Coastal Carolina (April 4), UNC Greensboro (April 12) and Davidson (April 18). The Demon Deacons are scheduled to open their ACC schedule at home, starting with a three-game series against North Carolina (March 10-12). Wake Forest will also host ACC foes Boston College (March 17-19), Virginia Tech (March 31-April 2), Maryland (April 21-23) and Florida State (May 5-7).
DEACONS PICKED EIGHTH BY ACC COACHES -- Wake Forest was picked to finish eighth in the 2006 ACC preseason baseball poll, as determined by a vote of the league's 12 head coaches. The Demon Deacons received a total of 59 points.

WAKE FOREST SCHEDULE LOADED -- The Demon Deacons will be up against another extremely difficult schedule as Wake Forest has four of Baseball America's Preseason Top 10 teams, including 2005 NCAA runner-up Florida. The Deacs will not only face two other opponents among the top 25, but challenge other NCAA Regional qualifiers' like Coastal Carolina, Miami (Fla.), Ohio State, Quinnipiac and Virginia. In all, 25 of Wake's 56 regular season games will come against teams either ranked in the top 25 or NCAA Tournament participants.
TRI-CAPTAINS -- Seniors Justin Keadle and Grant Achilles, as well as junior Charlie Mellies, have been chosen as team tri-captains for the 2006 season.
