CARY, North Carolina - North Carolina’s three seniors have accomplished so much in their four years, but one trophy that had eluded this group was an Atlantic Coast Conference Championship.
Inserted into the singles lineup for the first time all weekend, senior Kate Vialle clinched a 4-2 victory for the top-seeded Tar Heels over Miami, giving Carolina its first ACC title since 2011 and the seventh in program history.
“Just so proud of our team,” said head coach Brian Kalbas. “There were so many momentum switches throughout the match. I’m just really excited for our seniors to win this, they’ve had such amazing careers!
