CHAPEL HILL, N.C. - Already picked as the favorite to win the Atlantic Coast Conference title by the league's head coaches, the North Carolina men's soccer team claimed the No. 6 spot in the 2004 NSCAA/adidas NCAA Division I Men's Preseason Rankings, which were released Tuesday. The Tar Heels will be well tested this season, as six scheduled opponents are ranked among the nation's top 20: No. 3 Maryland, No. 8 Wake Forest, No. 13 Virginia Commonwealth, No. 14 Florida International, No. 18 Old Dominion and No. 20 Virginia. All four teams slated for this year's Nike Carolina Classic: UNC, Wake Forest, Virginia Commonwealth and Florida International are ranked. The event is scheduled for September 10-12 at Fetzer Field. Carolina wraps up its exhibition schedule at No. 23 Coastal Carolina at 6 p.m. Saturday. The Tar Heels' regular-season opener is against Penn State on September 3 at the Ohio State Classic.
