Making his first career start, Jimmy Reed held 17th-ranked NC State to two hits in eight shutout innings, striking out eight in a dominant performance to lead Maryland to a 4-0 victory Friday night.
Reed, who had evolved into one of the conference’s top closers this season, had been expected to start on Saturday. But Brett Harman was scratched from Friday’s game due to arm soreness, and Reed masterfully stepped in.
The left-handed junior set the tone from the start, retiring the side in order in the first and third innings. His previous long outing came last weekend against Boston College when he went 4 1/3 innings, but he needed just 45 pitches to get through the first four against the Wolfpack.
