CHAPEL HILL - Nico Melo’s second half goal lifted No. 4 North Carolina to a 1-0 victory over 20th-ranked UNCW on Tuesday evening from Fetzer Field.

The Tar Heels broke through with the first and ultimately only goal of the match in the 68th minute. The ever dangerous Zach Wright tip-toed his way through the UNCW goal area and unleashed a shot that was saved by the keeper. The clearing attempt by the Seahawk defender was volleyed by Melo into the back of the net for his first goal of the season.
