Women's soccer team falls to North Carolina
The Virginia women's soccer team continued its record of futility against national power North Carolina, falling 2-1 at Fetzer Field in Chapel Hill, N.C.
Freshman midfielder Sarah Huffman gave the Cavaliers an early lead with her first collegiate goal, off an assist from senior midfielder Meredith Rhodes. At the half, the score remained 1-0 in favor of the Cavaliers.
Virginia held its lead for most of the second half until North Carolina junior forward Alyssa Ramsey tied the game off a rebound in the 81st minute. Sophomore forward Anne Morrell scored three minutes later to win the game for the Tar Heels.
North Carolina outshot Virginia 14-5 during the game, and Virginia junior goalkeeper Anne Abernethy had a season-high six saves. The Cavaliers have never defeated the Tar Heels in women's soccer.
