Brianna Pinto in a North Carolina state of mind

Posted Oct 18, 2019
While Brianna Pinto has family connections on both sides of the Carolina-Duke rivalry, the UNC star midfielder never considered becoming a Blue Devil. “The former Duke women’s soccer assistant coach, Billy Lesesne, lived across the street from me. I’m sure he saw me run out of my front door donning a UNC soccer t-shirt a fair number of times." (BGN.fm)
