Strilij (Ear Hwl SOCCER FROM PAGE 10 proved solid and consistent, anchor ing the team in seven victories that were decided by a single goal. Friday night was no exception, as UNC’s back line fought off an onslaught of UVa. attacks dining the overtime. The Cavaliers (11-3-4,5-2- 3) continued to pressure, and in the 97th minute, Shannon Foley broke through UNC’s defense and rocketed the ball to the lower right post For a moment, it looked like the game would have a very different outcome. But goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris reacted quickly and dove to earn her second save of the night and keep the Tar Heels alive. Dorrance called her first save at the end of the second half “world class” after Harris pounced on a Kelly Quinn shot from six yards away. Throughout the season, Harris has been splitting time in the net with Anna Rodenbough, who recorded four saves in the first half. “I’m battling a couple injuries right now, and to sit down for 45 minutes and be expected to hop off the bench and be 100 percent and ready to go, it’s difficult,” Harris said. “But it’s a mind-set, it’s a men tality, and it’s something that I’m very confident in.” Harris and Dorrance both cred ited senior Jessica Maxwell for coor dinating the back line. Maxwell was honored along with FOOTBALL FROM PAGE 10 UNCs Kentwan Balmer gave chase, eventually hurrying him into an incomplete pass to end the game. And the senior defensive tackle said it was the most critical play of his career. “It was a relief, I mean, this team has played so hard, came up short so many times, and to finish a game like that for the team, for my teammates, it was just big,” he said. “Everybody in the stadium went crazy, and you couldn’t even put into words what it meant to this team and what it meant to me.” The play was the last in what head coach Butch Davis called the defense’s best performance of the year. And it became even more important as the offense stalled late in the game. UNC (3-6,2-3) jumped all over Maryland (4-5,1-4) early, especially on the ground.

In their final regular-season game, the Tar Heels faced the nation’s top defensive team, but Nogueira said UNC has the same attack plan no matter who the opponent is. “We go all out, up top we just have to sprint the whole time until we can’t sprint any more,” she said. “We just press the defense, press until they can’t play. Eventually the team just kind of gets really tired, and then we start gaining more opportunities.” of the first half, junior free safety Trimane Goddard intercepted a pass on Maryland’s first play of the ensuing drive. UNC then drove 31 yards in 36 seconds to set up a third Barth field goal just before halftime. “It was a definite big momentum swing,” quarterback T. J. Yates said. After throwing two intercep tions in the first half, Yates rode that momentum into his first drive of the third quarter. He connected with top target Hakeem Nicks three times in the drive, including a 30-yard touch down to give UNC a 16-3 lead. “I read the coverage, and they were playing a safety in tight, and Brooks (Foster) went up and grabbed him, got him to bite in,” Yates said. “Hakeem just gave him a little out side move and just totally blew by the guy. It was an easy pass.” But the offense would stop right there for the Tar Heels. UNC’s next five drives resulted in four punts and the end of the game. “We didn’t adjust as well as they did,” Davis said. “They started doing a lot of things they started fire-zoning, blitzing, they started to <.l MUM Ml MM \SS()< I \II () \ 21 Censor's insert 22 Hebrew letter 26 Green stone 27 Garden bloom 28 Nary a one 29 Ocean predator 30 Neighbor of Tibet 31 Skater's leap 34 Molten flow 36 Calf meat 37 Writer Bellow 39 French seasons 41 Domain 44 Nero's egg ~ [2 [3 p p BBT p p p (12 113 .

And we didn’t do as good a job as we need to as far as picking some of that stuff up.” But when the offensive unit faltered, playmakers emerged on defense. Balmer, Goddard and senior Hilee Taylor all emerged down the stretch to help UNC hold on. “We just had a little struggle on the offensive side of the ball,” running back Anthony Elzy said. “Thank God the defense stepped up tonight. They stepped up and played one heck of a game tonight” The win was a crucial one for the Tar Heels and ended a two-game los ing streak that included an ugly per formance last week at Wake Forest. It also matched last year’s win total at three and kept UNC bowl eligible. “It would have been very easy for this football team to kind of maybe lose their enthusiasm to play, maybe start pointing fingers, start to doubt,” Davis said. “And I think when you go through adversity, I think it shows an awful lot, tells an awful lot about the character of your team.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.

You just want to get off the field, hold them to a field goal.” And that’s just what the defense did when senior Hilee Taylor hit Maryland quarterback Chris Turner as he was throwing the ball to cause an incompletion on the ensuing set of downs. The defense came up with big stops all day as the Tar Heels held off the Terrapins for a 16-13 victory. UNC sealed the victory when defensive tackle Kentwan Balmer hurried Turner as he was letting go of the ball again to force a fourth down incompletion and a Terrapin turnover with 36 seconds to play. “It sounds funny, but we like our backs against the wall,” Taylor said. “We like to have to hold them to a field goal or no points at all. That challenges us.” The defense was challenged frequently Saturday as the offense moved slowly most of the game. UNC scored no touchdowns in the EXHIBITION FROM PAGE 10 sage about intensity. “I’ve got a pretty smart team,” Williams said. “If they didn’t fig ure it out now, I’ll remind them of it tomorrow, so for sure they’ll remember it then.” The spark provided by the reserves seemed to carry over. After going back to the second half’s starting five, the Tar Heels started clicking by running the floor and making stops on defense. UNC’s top-two scorers were both big men forwards Tyler Hansbrough and Deon Thompson who finished with 23 and 17 points, respectively. North Carolina figures to see success in the paint all season with those two, in addition to Alex Stepheson, who is still battling Thompson for the starting role. “They both do different things,” Hansbrough said. “Deon, he stepped up and played well tonight Alex is a physical, strong guy, and he can get a lot of boards and get some points ATTENTION: {NTS!!!

But the unit was up to the task of carrying the team. “Certainly the story of the day had to be defense,” head coach Butch Davis said. “This is maybe the best defensive performance that we’ve had from a standpoint that a lot of guys on defense really contributed to this.” Davis said the effort started with the defensive front four. “It seemed like almost every single possession somebody on the defensive line came up with a big play,” he said. The line stayed in Turner’s face all day and was largely respon sible for the plays that ended the Terrapins’ last two drives. But the effort ended with Goddard. The junior contributed perhaps his best performance of the year with a team-leading 10 tackles and his second intercep tion of the season. The pick came with 47 seconds remaining in the first half and allowed the Tar Heel offense to drive down for a field every once in a while too.” Sophomore guard iy Lawson fin ished the game with six assists and 11 points and said he felt the differ ence a year can make. “I feel real comfortable because last year I was probably a little nervous the first couple games,” Lawson said. “This year I’m feeling like I can do everything I want to.” A big advantage for UNC is not having to integrate any freshmen into the team. This year’s squad lost senior Reyshawn Terry and stand out freshman B randan Wright, but there is plenty of returning talent. “That just lit a fire under me to want to work hard, to know that this was such a big opportunity,” Thompson said. All that remains to be seen is if Thompson and the rest of the Tar Heels follow through on the oppor tunities that present themselves. Expectations run high for the team that just missed out on a Final Four appearance last season, evidenced by UNC sitting atop both the AP preseason poll and the ESPN/USA Today poll. goal to take a 9-3 lead. “Trimane made a great play he looked like a wide receiver out there, tip-toeing on the sidelines,” quarterback T.J. Yates said. “We knew we just had to get not too far to get to Connor (Barth )’s range.” The ensuing field goal proved to be the difference in the final score. It was fitting that those cru cial points were the result of a big defensive play, as the unit proved to be a factor the entire game. “These type of games, the defense loves being out there, flying around, making plays,” Goddard said. “You don’t even get tired because you’re having so much fun out there.” After a disappointing loss last week to Wake Forest, the win made it even more fun. “It feels real good,” Taylor said. “After you look at games and you say We could’ve won this and that,’ it’s good to actually win it.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu. “We put that out of our mind because everybody is going to come at us, and we can’t just be happy like we’re No. 1,” Lawson said. “We just have to stay on top and be hun gry, and we’ll be alright.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.
