Emerging UVa defense to be tested by UNC, the nation's top offense, in the lacrosse semifinals

Posted May 29, 2021
UNC has seen UVa’s defense up close. Saturday’s meeting will be the third this season between the ACC heavyweights. Carolina won the first game 16-13 in Charlottesville on March 11. The Cavaliers won 18-16 in Chapel Hill on April 10. “When I looked at the stats I was like, ‘Wow, 32 goals for us, 31 for them in two meetings,’” said UNC's Joe Breschi. (Roanoke Times)
