RALEIGH — NC State baseball walked away from the Regional loss in the 2025 NCAA Baseball Tournament knowing it needed to improve across the board to return to Omaha for the College World Series.
Head coach Elliott Avent worked to add valuable pieces in the transfer portal, but also retained critical players, including left-handed pitcher Ryan Marohn. Now in his junior season with the Wolfpack and second year as a full-time starter, Marohn worked hard to improve his game during the offseason and seems confident in the 2026 team after fall ball.
On the difference between his freshman and sophomore seasons with the Wolfpack
