The North Carolina Tar Heels women’s lacrosse team is currently ranked No. 5 in the nation, and on Saturday they took on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
The Irish, ranked 22nd in their own right, claimed an early lead on the Tar Heels. Through the first half, the Fighting Irish led North Carolina by a score of 6-2.
But the Tar Heels did not stay behind for long.
Jamie Ortega, a freshman attacker for UNC, had the best game of her young career. The New York native tallied six goals for the Tar Heels.
