Kluegel Expects to Play
Despite Sprained Ankle
UNC midfielder Jena Kluegel
sustained her injury in the
56th minute in the Tar Heels'
victory against Connecticut.

• If Anson Dorrance was afraid, he
wasn’t showing it
The North Carolina women’s soccer
coach had just learned that he might be
without star midfielder Jena Kluegel for
Friday’s NCAA semifinal match against
Notre Dame.
1 The Tar Heels had already been
playing without forward Susan Bush,
who was lost for the season Oct. 25 with
attorn anterior cruciate ligament in her
right knee.
Could the Tar Heels actually win the
national championship, their 16th in 19
years, without Kluegel and Bush?
“I don’t know,” Dorrance said. “But
I’m excited to see.”
The good news for Dorrance, as of
Sunday night, was that he probably
won’t have to find out. Kluegel’s ankle
sprain isn’t as severe as the team origi
nally feared, and Kluegel expects to
play in the final four this weekend.
“It’s healing good,” Kluegel said. “It
looks a lot better than I thought it would,
so things look good for the weekend.”
Kluegel sustained her injury in the
56th minute of UNC’s 3-0 victory
against Connecticut on Friday after
noon. She was away from the ball when
she cut back to make a run. It was then
that her right ankle rolled and she heard
a-popping noise.
She left the match with the Tar Heels
holding a 1-0 lead and did not return.
I Freshman Catherine Reddick substi
tuted for Kluegel, setting off a mass shift
ih the UNC lineup. Reddick entered
the game as a defender and pushed up
Danielle Borgman to a forward posi
tipn. Anne Remy moved back to the
midfield from her forward spot, taking
over for Kluegel in the flank midfield.
Borgman, who might be North
Carolina’s fastest player, enjoyed her
chance to try to score goals instead of
prevent them. She earned an assist on
UNC’s second goal after making a slid
ing cross from die right comer.
“When I’m thrown up top, all of this
pressure is released off of me,”
Borgman said. “I don’t have to worry
that if I lose the ball - I’m still going to
bust my butt to get back -but I’m not
the last line of defense. I have a little bit
of pressure released off of me, and it’s

Junior Jena Kluegel (9) left Saturday's game with an injured ankle
but said she thinks she will be ready for the final four this weekend.
the greatest fun. I just love it”
Borgman is an effective forward, but
the Tar Heels are at their best with her
in the back, Kluegel in the midfield and
Remy up front.
Few players in the nation attack
opposing defenses with the tenacity that
Kluegel does. She ranks second in the
nation with 22 assists, a figure that is the
fourth-best single-season total in UNC
history.
Her plan this week is to take it easy so
that she’ll get the chance to add to that
total. Kluegel has been icing her ankle
and doing rehabilitation exercises since
Saturday and will continue to do so. She
said she probably won’t touch a soccer
ball until Wednesday or Thursday.
So far, so good.
“That seems to be working because it
looks good,” Kluegel said. “It’s not
swollen, and it’s not black and blue.
That’s a good sign.”

From Page 12
Inspired by a crowd of 2,035 on
Friday, the Tar Heels jumped on the
Huskies from the start. UNC mounted
three good offensive attacks in the
match’s first eight minutes before break
ing through with 13 minutes, 13 seconds
elapsed from the clock.
Senior Kalli Kamholz launched a
throw-in from the right side into the
goal box, where Anne Remy shifted the
ball over to Florance for the game’s first
goal. Florance didn’t make solid contact
with the ball, but UConn goalkeeper
Maria Yatrakis never had a chance for a
save because she was screened off on
the play.
“We did not create opportunities,
and that first goal kind of killed us,”
Tsantiris said. “We gave a up a very soft
goal early on.”
The Huskies never could recover,
mosdy because they could not take care
of the ball. The Tar Heels pursued at
every position with the relentless pres
sure for which they are known, and
Connecticut couldn’t handle it
Even in the final 15 minutes of the
first half, when UNC’s intensity waned,
the Huskies were too tentative to take
advantage of it
“They came at us, and we haven’t
played a lot of teams that have pres
sured us that much,” UConn senior for
ward Jen Carlson said. “We panicked a
little bit, and they capitalized on our
mistakes.”
That nonstop effort of the Tar Heels
was never more evident than in the sec
ond half, when they turned up the heat
an extra notch. Junior Danielle
Borgman, who moved to the front line
after an injury to Jena Kluegel, helped
lead the charge.
Borgman’s husde was responsible for
UNC’s second goal.
Knocked off the ball deep in UConn
territory, Borgman
sprinted after it
and saved it with a
sliding cross
before it rolled
over the end line.
The ball landed
right on the foot of
Alyssa Ramsey,
who was stationed
at the near post,
and she redirect
ed it to Florance
for the goal at
60:26.
Freshman
defender Maggie
UNC senior forward
Meredith Florance
scored a pair of goals
in the last match
of her career at
Fetzer Field.
Tomecka added UNC’s third goal when
she won a ball in the midfield and blast
ed a shot from 22 yards away into the
upper left-hand comer of the net in the
74th minute.
But the game, as many before it at
Fetzer Field, had been decided long
before then. Florance had made sure of
that, scoring her team-leading 24th and
25th goals of the season.
The Tar Heels compiled a 38-1
record at Fetzer Field during Florance’s
four-year career.

“It was a great feeling to score two
goals today,” Florance said. “AH of the

this was our last game on Fetzer.
“It meant a lot to me."
