CHAPEL HILL --- The Tar Heels traveled home from Charlottesville Saturday night after a challenging dual meet against Virginia. Sophie Lindner, Fabian Stepinski and others had remarkable performances, but both teams lost the duals to Virginia's No. 17 men and No. 6 women, 181-118 and 171-125 respectively.
"I'm extremely proud of our team for competing well against one of the nation's best teams," said head coach Mark Gangloff. "We are in a great position for this time of year."
Both the men's and women's teams placed second in the 400-yard medley relay, and North Carolina's women also finished second in the 200-yard freestyle relay.
