Posted Jun 23, 2011
No. 3 national seed North Carolina fell behind No. 6 seed Vanderbilt early and could never mount a rally in falling 5-1 to the Commodores in Wednesday's College World Series elimination game. Senior Ben Bunting knocked in North Carolina’s lone run in the fifth inning. Taylor Hill (6-1) was dominant on the mound for Vanderbilt, giving up just one earned run on four hits in 7.0 innings pitched. (Inside Carolina)
