UNC, the No. 1 seed in the NCAA tourney, has been to the College World Series five of the last seven years but the 8-0 loss was its worst defeat of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Landon Lassiter, a freshman, led the Tar Heels with a pair of hits. He said he doesn&#8217;t think the shutout shifts the momentum to the Gamecocks. &#8220;No, I don&#8217;t think so,&#8221; Lassiter said. &#8220;That&#8217;s why you play three [games]. We&#8217;ll come out tomorrow and be ready to play. I mean, we haven&#8217;t lost two in a row all year. We have a great group of guys, and I&#8217;m looking forward to it.&#8221; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>South Carolina&#8217;s Jordan Montgomery pitched a four-hit shutout Sunday as the Gamecocks whipped North Carolina 8-0 in the NCAA super regional to force a Game&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[79,80],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-featured-stories","category-north-carolina-tar-heels","wpcat-79-id","wpcat-80-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5809"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5809\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5812,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5809\/revisions\/5812"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capitalsportsnc.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
