Like we discussed with soccer last week, field hockey is another sport that has its schedule altered by COVID-19. The typical fall sport will have its NCAA Tournament take part this spring, starting this Friday.
North Carolina have been quite a force in field hockey in recent years, and it should be no surprise that the Tar Heels will be involved in this year’s tournament too. After a 16-1 year between fall and spring seasons, UNC received the #1 overall seed.
Coming into this season off the back of two undefeated, national championship winning seasons, the Tar Heels dropped their second game of the year to Louisville on the road.
