Third-seeded North Carolina got four goals and an assist from senior Abbey Friend and defeated unseeded Georgetown, 10-8, on Sunday afternoon in the NCAA Women’s Lacrosse Tournament second round at Fetzer Field.

Friend took over as the career goal leader for North Carolina (15-4) while also tying the UNC single-season goal mark on Sunday. She entered Sunday’s game with 191 career goals, one behind the school record of 192 set by Corey Donohoe (2008-11).

With her performance against the Hoyas, Friend now has 195 goals in her career. She has career highs of 62 goals, 16 assists and 78 points this season. Her 62 goals tie the single-season school record set by Kellie Thompson in 2002. The school single-season mark for points is within reach at 83, set by Kara Cannizzaro in 2013.

Carolina will return to action in the NCAA quarterfinals next Saturday (May 17) at home against sixth-seeded Virginia, which beat unseeded Princeton on Sunday afternoon.

The seventh-ranked North Carolina men’s tennis team earned a 4-1 win over South Carolina on Sunday afternoon in the second round of the NCAA Men’s Tennis Championships at Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center.

With the victory, the Tar Heels will move on to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen and face No. 8-ranked Georgia in Athens, Ga. on Friday at 4 p.m. The Bulldogs are the host school for the final four rounds of the championships and go into Friday match as the tournament’s No. 10 seed.

The Tar Heels improve to 26-5 on the season with the victory, breaking the all-time team single-season wins record of 25 victories achieved in both 1992 and 2006. North Carolina also advanced to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen in both of those seasons. South Carolina fell to 16-14 on the season with the loss.

In singles action, sophomore Brett Clark tied UNC’s single-season singles wins record with a 6-4, 6-3 victory on court three. Clark’s win ties him with former Tar Heel All-Americas Roland Thornqvist and Nick Monroe, both of whom achieved 36 wins in the 1992-93 and 2003-04 campaigns, respectively.

Tyler Ramirez drove in Parks Jordan with a tiebreaking single in the bottom of the seventh, and North Carolina held on for a 5-4 win over No. 4 Florida State Sunday afternoon at Boshamer Stadium. Jordan had two hits and fellow senior Tom Zengel added an RBI double on Senior Day as the Tar Heels picked up win No. 30 and improved to 14-13 in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The game, which UNC coach Mike Fox said his Tar Heels “had to win,” puts Carolina in good position to play for the ACC tournament title and could go a long way toward helping the team make the NCAA tourney.

For the third game in a row Carolina (30-21) put two on in the first, but for the first time in the series the Tar Heels converted to take an early lead. Michael Russell led off with a walk and ended up on third when Jordan’s sacrifice bunt was thrown wildly by FSU starter Dylan Silva. With runners on the corners, Landon Lassiter’s grounder to short scored Russell to give the Tar Heels a 1-0 lead.

Alex Raburn reached on a one-out walk in the second and scored on Zengel’s double to right. Two batters later, Korey Dunbar singled to center and Carolina was up 3-0. Jordan’s RBI single up the middle in the fourth made it 4-0 and the Tar Heels looked to be in control.

UNC starter Zac Gallen, who needed a line drive double play to escape the first, faced the minimum over his next three innings before running into trouble in the fifth. Brett Knief’s bloop single – just the second of the game for the ‘Noles – started the FSU rally, and singles by Justin Gonzalez and Danny De La Calle chased the freshman righty.

On came Reilly Hovis, who allowed a run-scoring single to Josh Delph and a walk before striking out DJ Stewart to end the inning. But the Seminoles kept coming and tied it in the sixth without the benefit of a hit when Hank Truluck – who had reached on a hit by pitch – scored on a Hovis wild pitch.

FSU brought in its bullpen ace Gage Smith (4-2) in the fifth, and the sidewinding righty retired the first seven batters he faced before the Tar Heels broke through in the seventh. Jordan reached on an infield single before Lassiter’s single put two on with one out. Skye Bolt flew out to center, but Jordan was able to move up on the play, and the senior scored on Ramirez’s two-out, two-strike single to right.

Staked to a 5-4 lead, Hovis (7-1) locked in. In his longest outing of the season, the sophomore standout allowed just a pair of singles in the final two innings. His strikeout of De La Calle ended it with the tying run aboard, and Carolina picked up its second straight Sunday win over a top-five opponent. Hovis struck out eight on the day in 4.1 innings, and now has 70 punchouts in 52.0 innings.

The Tar Heels, who reached the 30-win mark for the 16th consecutive season under head coach Mike Fox and the 17th year in a row overall, will conclude their regular season with a four-game road trip that begins Tuesday in Shelby, North Carolina, against Gardner-Webb. Carolina will then make the trip to south Florida to face red-hot Miami in a three-game series.

UNC tight end Eric Ebron has been selected in the NFL draft by the Detroit Lions.

NFL Hall of Famer Barry Sanders made the announcement.

Mel Kiper, ESPN draft analyst, thought the Lions would go with wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. of LSU. But he said, “Ebron is a glorified wide receiver at 6-4 and half and 250 pounds. A great athlete with tremendous speed. He can stretch the deep middle area and make circus catches.”

He was considered the top tight end available in the draft.

“I don’t even know why we call him a tight end,” said former NFL coach Jon Gruden, adding that North Carolina rarely used Ebron as a blocker next to the tackle. While he has soft hands and can open up the middle of the field as well as any tight end, he’ll have to improve his blocking.

Ebron, in person at the draft, showed emotion while getting the call from the Lions, who are now coached by Jim Caldwell, and took his time getting to the stage, where he put on the Lions cap and hugged Commissioner Roger Goodell. He posed for pictures with Goodell, Sanders and a Lions jersey with his name.

He is the first tight end chosen in the top 10 since Vernon Davis, who went to San Francisco in 2006.

“I’m thrilled for Eric and his family,” said UNC head coach Larry Fedora. “Eric is the prototype tight end that the NFL is looking for these days. He can run all the routes. He can catch the ball, make people miss and has the speed to run away from defenders. The Lions are getting a special player and I think his best football is ahead of him.”

A native of Greensboro, Ebron set school tight end marks for single-season receptions, single-season yards, career receptions and career receiving yards as a junior in 2013.

“Eric flourished in our offense and we were creative in getting the ball to him in space,” said Fedora. “He loves playing football and has a lot of fun on the field. I’m looking forward to watching him play for several years in the NFL.”

It was an especially big day for Ebron who was engaged earlier in the day to his girlfriend Brittany Roundtree at the top of the Empire State Building.

Ebron, who decided to forego his senior season at UNC, caught 62 passes for 973 yards and three TDs, and was a first-team All-Atlantic Coast Conference selection as a junior. His 973 receiving yards are an ACC single-season record for tight ends, topping the mark of 871 set by Maryland’s Vernon Davis in 2005.
