Carolina Falls to No. 5 Florida State in ACC Championship

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – After a record-breaking semifinal game, North Carolina was unable take down the second-seeded, No. 5 Seminoles, falling 8-0 in six innings in the 2019 ACC Championship Saturday in Tallahassee, Florida. Carolina battled to the end but Florida State earned the ACC's automatic qualifier spot in the NCAA Tournament with the shutout.

"Obviously our goal was to be ACC Champs," head coach Donna J. Papa said. "We had the opportunity to do that today, but we fell short. I liked how we fought to get here, but I'm not as excited about how we competed in this game in particular.
