CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – No. 11/24 North Carolina (13-6, 8-4) captured its third win over a top-ten opponent in 2021 during a midweek matchup against No. 8 ECU on Tuesday evening with an 8-1 win.
The Tar Heels claimed the first lead of the contest in the opening frame. Justice Thompson and Caleb Roberts found their way on base during their first at-bats before Danny Serretti smashed an RBI double to the right-center gap to plate Thompson.
The Pirates were quick to respond, though, putting their own run on the board to tie the game 1-1 during their next offensive opportunity.
