Historical State, 125, NC State University, one hundred twenty-five years of shaping the future

1958

During the late 1950s, the team was dominated by players who hailed from Wilmington. They became known as the "Wilmington Mafia" and included Casteen, a 6ft 2inch right-hander. His first appearance for the varsity team was a 5-1 win over Wake Forest in the Dixie Classic in which he was also the top hitter with 6 hits in 13 at bats. In 1958 his fellow players selected him for the First Team All-ACC.
