The Demon Deacons are searching for their first series win in Charlottesville since 2002.
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. – Wake Forest hits the road for the first time in conference play, taking on No. 9 Virginia this weekend in a three-game ACC series.
The Demon Deacons and Cavaliers will meet for the 181st time on Friday, with Wake Forest searching for its first series win at Virginia since 2002. Wake last won the series against Virginia in 2018, taking a Saturday slugfest, 18-12, to clinch the series and wrap up the regular season.
Stay tuned to the Demon Deacons' social media accounts (@WakeBaseball) for all in-game updates and information.
Pitching Matching
Friday - Jr. RHP Blake Morningstar (2-2, 7.13 ERA) vs. Jr. LHP Kyle Johnson (0-0, 0.00 ERA)
Saturday - So. RHP Chris Levonas (4-1, 1.75 ERA) vs. So. LHP Max Stammel (2-0, 4.37 ERA)
Sunday - So. RHP Troy Dressler (3-0, 4.00 ERA) vs. Fr. RHP John Paone (1-1, 4.79 ERA)
Bombs Away
Over the last five seasons, Wake Forest has totaled 509 home runs which leads the ACC and also ranks fourth nationally during that time.
Rank School Home Runs
1. Tennessee 633
2. Georgia 546
3. Florida 527
4. Wake Forest 509
5. LSU 507
The 116 Demon Deacon home runs in 2025 marked the fourth consecutive season the Deacs have reached the century mark and it was the third-highest home run total in program history. The Deacs are one of just three teams nationally to have 100 or more home runs in each of the last four seasons.
Sophomore Luke Costello ranks in the top 40 in the country with eight bombs so far this year, having homered four times in the last seven games entering the series with Virginia.
DEACTOWN Charlotte
Building on the previously announced 2027 Wake Forest football matchup with Notre Dame inside Bank of America Stadium, Wake Forest Athletics continues to strengthen its regional ties to Charlotte as the Demon Deacons baseball program will head to the Queen City to take on Clemson in a showdown at Truist Field on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.
