• UNCG enters play coming off a sweep at the hands of Southern Conference leader Chattanooga over the weekend, while UNC took two of three from NC State over the weekend for its fourth straight Atlantic Coast Conference series victory.
• The Tar Heels will be the fourth ACC team UNCG has faced this season. The Spartans opened the season by no-hitting then-No. 23 Florida State and have also faced Virginia Tech and NC State.
