With both offenses firing on all cylinders, the North Carolina and Denver lacrosse teams faced off to open overtime, looking to earn the offensive possession to give them the sudden-death victory.
And for the 21st time in the game, No. 2 Denver claimed possession and yet another opportunity for its prolific offense. The first possession of overtime would be the deciding one for Denver, as the No. 10 Tar Heels fell 13-12 in a thriller.
The Tar Heels did well to battle back in the first place, as they fell three goals behind with just 6:32 to play in the fourth quarter.
