UNC remains unbeaten in ACC
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Senior Bridgette Andrzejewski scored the game-winning goal and added an assist on the goal that gave the Tar Heels separation as the fourth-ranked University of North Carolina women's soccer team blanked Notre Dame 3-0 on Dorrance Field Dedication Day in Chapel Hill Sunday afternoon. A crowd of 2,316 fans was on hand for the shutout victory.
With the victory the Tar Heels improved to 10-1 on the season and stayed perfect in the ACC at 3-0. Notre Dame fell to 7-4 with the loss and the Fighting Irish are now 1-2 in league play.
Before the game the University of North Carolina officially named the playing field at the new soccer and lacrosse facility in honor of 41-year head coach Anson Dorrance. With the win over the Fighting Irish, the Tar Heels are now 857-75-40 in Dorrance's 41 years as head coach.
After the first few minutes Sunday, the Tar Heels took over control of the game after the Irish had a couple of close in looks off corner kicks. Carolina would go on to outshoot the Irish 18-4 in the match and have a pronounced 12-5 edge in corner kicks.
The Tar Heels broke through for what was eventually the game-winning goal at 27:32 of the match. Junior defender Lotte Wubben-Moy lofted a ball from about 35 yards out in the center of the pitch over the Notre Dame back line and into the left side of the box to Ru Mucherera who brought it down and struck a shot that was saved by Notre Dame goalkeeper Brooke Littman. Andrzejewski pounced on the rebound immediately and drove it into the back of the net from three yards out for her fourth goal of the campaign.
Carolina would go on to add two more goals in the second half. Brianna Pinto notched her team-leading seventh goal of the season at 60:59 off assists by Emily Fox and Andrzejewski. Pinto's finish was a back flick onto the far post from eight yards out after taking a pass from the right side from Fox. Andrzejewski had initially pushed the ball out to Fox from a central attacking position just moments earlier.
The Tar Heels finished out the scoring at 74:54 on Lotte Wubben-Moy's second goal of the season. Wubben-Moy converted a penalty kick for what was also her second career goal. Both have come on penalties this season, the other in a win over UNLV earlier in the campaign by an 8-0 score. The Tar Heels had earned the penalty kick after freshman Isabel Cox had been taken down in the penalty box by a Notre Dame defender.
Brooke Littman went the entire way for the Fighting Irish in goal, making six saves and allowing three goals. As it customary, UNC split goalkeeper time. Marz Josephson played the first half and made two saves and Claudia Dickey patrolled the net the second 45 minutes and made one save.
The Tar Heels will be back in action next Saturday when they host Clemson at 5 p.m. at Dorrance Field in a match to be nationally televised on ACC Network Extra. The Tigers improved to 8-1-1 overall and 2-1 in the ACC Sunday with a 3-1 victory over Virginia Tech.
