CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – A can't-miss game between two top-5 teams is happening Friday afternoon in Chapel Hill as the No. 1 University of North Carolina women's lacrosse team hosts No. 4 Boston College in a national title rematch at Dorrance Field. First draw is set for 4 p.m. ET.

Tickets are available for purchase here.

The contest will be aired on ESPNU with Sheehan Stanwick Burch and Jay Alter on call, marking UNC's third of a nation-leading eight nationally-televised broadcasts.

Heading into Friday's contest, North Carolina has…

won 23 consecutive regular season ACC games
won 26 consecutive games (second longest steak in UNC history)
won 36 consecutive home games at Dorrance Field
won 44 consecutive regular season games (second longest streak in NCAA history)
won 53 of its last 55 games, and 61 of its last 63 games

Additionally, Jenny Levy is just one win away from reaching 400 career victories, the third most in NCAA Division I history and second most among active DI head coaches. She is three shy of 100 conference wins, most of any head coach in league history.

The top-ranked Tar Heels secured a win during their last outing after defeating Virginia Tech, 10-6, on Feb. 24 in Blacksburg. Caitlyn Wurzburger led the way with a hat trick and three assists for a game-high six points while Reilly Casey tallied a game-high four assists.

UNC sits at 4-0 overall and starts Atlantic Coast Conference action at 1-0 following its win over the Hokies. With a 3-1 overall record and 1-0 mark in league play, BC took down Duke, 17-8, in its latest appearance.

The matchup between North Carolina and Boston College has established itself as one of the premier rivalries in the sport in recent years. The Tar Heels lead the series at 22-6, including a 6-4 mark in the past 10 meetings and a 10-2 record for games played at Dorrance Field.

The two foes went head-to-head three times last season with UNC coming out on top on each occasion. The Tar Heels held on for a 16-15 victory in Chestnut Hill during the regular season before a convincing 16-9 win to secure their sixth-straight ACC title.

In thrilling fashion, Carolina topped Boston College, 12-11, in the 2022 NCAA Championship to culminate its undefeated season with its third national title.
