Carolina beat both Penn and No. 10 Princeton as part of the ACC-Ivy League Conference Crossover in New Jersey during the weekend.
In the first game against Penn Friday afternoon, five different Tar Heels accounted for six total goals in a dominant offensive display. UNC led 2-0 inside of eight minutes played, scored two goals in a span of 1:02 in the third quarter and outshot the Quakers 18-8 overall. Dani Mendez, Ryleigh Heck, Isabel Boere, Charly Bruder and Reese Anetsberger all scored for Carolina. Anetsberger and Bruder both struck in the fourth quarter to seal the 6-2 win after Penn had cut a 4-0 deficit to 4-2.
Carolina had to fight out of an early deficit against the Tigers Sunday, as Princeton drew first blood early in the second quarter. The Tar Heels grabbed momentum before halftime, as freshman Eliza Perrin scored with just 30 seconds remaining in the second quarter to knot the score at 1-1. Boere then scored twice in less than two minutes in the third quarter, and the UNC defense withstood a comeback attempt to take home the 3-2 win.
The No. 2 Tar Heels are now 4-0 on the season. Carolina will return to action when it hosts its home opener against Appalachian State at Karen Shelton Stadium Friday, September 12 at 6 p.m.
