Mac Horvath pencils his name into history

Mac Horvath becomes the first ACC player to have 20 home runs, 20 doubles, and 20 stolen bases in a single season in 24 years.

It’s been a season to remember for North Carolina junior Mac Horvath as he became the first ACC player to have 20 home runs, 20 doubles, and 20 stolen bases in a single season in 24 years

Horvath joined Florida State’s Marshall McDougall, who accomplished similar stats in 1999. Earlier this month, Horvath had a historic four-game stretch, becoming the first Tar Heel in UNC history with 19 RBIs in that amount of games. A week later Horvath added to his historic season by becoming the second Tar Heel in school history to notch 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases in the same season.

Horvath has been a driving force for UNC, becoming a highlight reel this year. Horvath ends the regular season with 61 RBIs, 21 home runs, and 22 stolen bases.

Horvath and the Tar Heels will be in action this week as they look to repeat as ACC champions.
