No. 1 Tar Heels Return With Big Win Over Elon

Posted May 6, 2009
No. 1 UNC scored five runs in the first and bettered that effort with six in the fourth en route to a 15-6 win over No. 28 Elon Tuesday at Boshamer Stadium. All-America Dustin Ackley and Mark Fleury drove in three runs each, and Levi Michael homered for the second straight game to lead the Tar Heels (36-11) to their ninth win in the last 10 outings. The loss snapped a nine-game winning streak for the Phoenix, who allowed a season-high 15 runs. (Tar Heel Blue)
