#2 Florida State Hands Tar Heels Second Straight Loss

TALLAHASSEE, FLA. - A late goal by Florida State’s Berglind Thorvaldsdottir was the difference as second-ranked Florida State defeated top-ranked North Carolina in women’s soccer action Sunday afternoon at the Seminole Soccer Complex. With the 1-0 victory, the Seminoles retain the top spot in the ACC at 5-0-1 while the Tar Heels fall to 4-2-0 in ACC play.

The only goal of the game came at 78:16 when Cassie Miller, the Florida State goalkeeper, launched a long punt from her penalty box that bounced over the Tar Heels’ defense back line and found Thorvaldsdottir in stride one-on-one against UNC goalkeeper Lindsey Harris.
