CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – North Carolina opened its luxurious new Soccer & Lacrosse Stadium on the Tar Heel campus with 3-0 win over Indiana Thursday evening in a rain-delayed Carolina Nike Classic women's soccer opener. A crowd of 1,481 fans weathered the delays to root on the Tar Heels to victory in their season opener, playing in the new on-campus stadium that replaced Fetzer Field, home of the team from 1979-2016.
Senior scored the first-ever Tar Heel goal in the new stadium for the game-winner in the 14 minute and , a sophomore whose father played for the men's team at the old Fetzer in the 1990s, had a brace to push the Tar Heels to an eventual 3-0 win.
