Northern Kentucky University’s baseball team kicked off the season last week. The Norse broke into the national polls as they were able to knock off Grand Valley State and Wisconsin-Parkside. They came into the most recent poll at No. 24. Grand Valley State was ranked No. 8 when NKU beat them in the final game of a double-header Feb. 25. The game was highlighted by a grand slam hit by Matt Wagers.
