Busch was also named to the All-ACC first team as an outfielder. Prior to this season, Busch had never played an inning for North Carolina in left field. In 2018, Busch was named to the All-ACC second team as a first baseman. Busch’s versatility on the field along with his play at the plate caught the eye of many.

Busch is third on the team in batting average at .279, leads the team with 64 runs scored and leads the team in walks with 54. Busch hit 12 home runs in the regular season along with 50 RBIs.

Baum, a pitcher, earned All-ACC honors for the first time in his career, named to the third team. Baum has started 13 games for the Tar Heels, he has a 3.91 ERA and a 7-3 record, with four of his wins coming against ACC opponents. Against Duke, Baum pitched a career high 8.2 innings, gave up two hits, and zero runs.  

First-year Serretti became a staple in the Tar Heels’ infield, playing both second base and shortstop. Throughout the regular season, Serretti had the third best batting average on the team.

Throughout the regular season, these four Tar Heels displayed talent both on the field and at the plate that set them apart. As North Carolina continues its postseason run at the ACC Tournament, these four players will take the field prepared to leave their mark just as they did in the regular season.
