At one point the season seemed to be going swimmingly. UNC had won 13 of 16 and headed to Notre Dame looking to grab some key wins with an eye on possibly hosting a regional.
Instead the wheels have officially come off. UNC was swept at Notre Dame, stopped the bleeding briefly with a midweek win over UNCW before getting swept by Virginia in the final home stand of the weekend. It was the first time since 2001 UNC had been swept in back-to-back ACC series.
Game One: Virginia 2 UNC 1 (10)
The first game of the series was a heartbreaker with Zac Gallen shutting down Virginia for 8.
